“You’ll have to come back one day when it’s just us.”
I studied my food.
Oooh, lordy. It was a promise and it made me want to learn more about Stoney, particularly when it was just us.
“Done!” Felix said. “Can we play pinball now?”
I rolled my eyes. “How about we wait for Stoney to finish eating?”
“Oh, right. Sorry.”
“It’s all good, bud,” Stoney said. “I’m done. Let’s play.”
Felix climbed off the bench and jumped up and down.
“I’ll clean up,” I offered.
“The machines are inside around the corner,” Stoney said.
“Okay, thanks. Have fun.”
They walked back inside, and I got rid of the trash and wiped down the table.
“You’re new.”
I turned at the sound of the deep voice and found myself really close to another ridiculously good-looking biker, a little older than Stoney, but no less gorgeous.
“I am,” I said. “Stoney invited me. I’m Sabrina.”
“Rocky.”
The patch on his vest said, ‘VICE PRESIDENT.’
“Nice to meet you.”
“Why are you out here alone?” he asked.
“Stoney took my nephew in to play pinball.” I frowned. “Am I not supposed to be out here alone?”
“No, you’re good. Just don’t like to see a beautiful woman—”
“Rocky, fuck off,” Stoney growled, and Rocky’s head turned slowly toward him.
“That’s a ten-dollar word,” Felix said. “You have to pay Auntie ten dollars.”
“Put it on my tab,” Stoney retorted, glaring at Rocky.
“What’s tab?” Felix asked.
I rushed over to them and raised an eyebrow at Stoney. “I’ll just take Felix inside while you two deal with whatever that was.”
Stoney nodded, and I guided Felix back inside.
“What’s tab?” Felix asked again.
“Sometimes when you know you’re going to spend more money in a period of time, you can say ‘put it on my tab,’ so that you just pay for everything at once. It’s kind of a grown-up thing.”
“So, Stoney was saying he’s going to swear more?” he asked, his mouth dropping open.
