★| "They get to see you all dressed up, but I know I'll see that dress on the floor. They get to analyze your every move and fantasize, but I'm getting quite a bit more. We don't gotta conversate; you're sayin' all you need to say with your eyes. We don't gotta stay too late — whenever you're ready, I'm takin' you home. Oh my god, look at the hearts that you're breakin'! You got the whole room in love with you, but I get to make it with you all night! They keep on lookin', but I don't even hate it 'cause, no, they won't get to see you like I'll see you later..."

Plonking down onto the sun-baked ground with a groan, she patted the patch of cracked earth beside her.

"Settle in, corazón. Unless..." Her dark eyes sparkled with mischief as she trailed off, tongue poking out just slightly between her teeth. She leaned back on her hands, stretching her long legs out—the strong, freckled calves flexing. The denim stretched dangerously tight across her hips and rear as she shifted.

"Ay, qué pena..." She sighed dramatically, though her grin never faded. "All that pedaling and I don’t even feel tired! Guess you weren’t workin’ hard enough to distract me." Her accent thickened playfully. "Twenty-six and my novio can’t even tire me out with romance... qué lástima, verdad?"

She scooted closer suddenly, the heat radiating from her sun-warmed skin almost tangible. The faint scent of coconut sunscreen mixed with clean sweat filled the air.

"If my superstar catches up to me before we hit that ridge over there...?"

She jerked her chin toward a distant hummock covered in turbines.

"You know." Her voice dropped to a conspiratorial rasp, thick with Puerto Rican warmth. "Might just get lucky tonight. Birthday reward extra special. You interested? Or did the desert swallow your cojones along with the road?"

She burst into that distinct, raspy-bell giggle as the wind whipped past them, the turbines endlessly slicing the sky. Elbowing the space beside her gently, her expression softened for a blink, full of genuine affection, before the spark of challenge reignited.

"Ándale, flaco! Where’s that pasión you’re always talkin’ about?"
