I laughed. “I’ll invite you next time they have a get together.”
“I’m gonna hold you to it.”
Austin reached us, grinned, and leaned down to kiss me. PDA’s were of no consequence to him it would seem. “Hey, babe.”
“Hi.” I grinned at Cassidy’s expression. “Austin, this is Cassidy Dennis. Her son’s in my class.”
“Nice to meet you,” Cassidy said, reaching out her hand.
Austin shook it and smiled.
“I need to pick up Mav,” she said, but continued to stare at Austin. “Ah, it was nice to meet you,” she repeated.
“You too,” Austin said, his expression one of amusement.
“’Bye, Dani.”
“’Bye.”
Cassidy walked off, glanced back a few times, but managed to climb into her car and drive off without running into anything.
“She wants to meet your club,” I said.
“Excuse me?”
I nodded. “She saw you and nearly wet herself.”
Austin laughed. “I take it she’s a single mom?”
“She’s the single mom of a darling little boy named Maverick.”
“Fuck me,” he said with a groan.
“Hmm-mmm,” I droned. “Regret what you said?”
“Hell, no. That boy’s gonna get his ass kicked in middle school.”
“Not if he’s a badass. Then it won’t matter what his name is.”
Austin chuckled. “You might have a point.”
I ran my hand up his chest and stroked his neck. “Where’s your truck?”
“Oh, my beautiful little temptress,” he said, and kissed me quickly. “Your powers don’t work on me when I have the chance to ride.”
I wrinkled my nose. “Damn it! I was hoping it would rain.”
“Come on, baby. You’re gonna love it.”
“But I have all my stuff.” I lifted my bag and purse, filled with paperwork to finalize.
“Which will all fit perfectly in the saddlebags.”
“I didn’t bring a leather jacket. I don’t even own one.”
Austin grabbed my hand and grinned. “I brought one for you.”
“You did not.”
