I knock on Nav’s door and then it opens quickly. He snatches me inside. His mouth comes down on mine.

We haven’t saw each other since he dropped me off the other morning. “Did you miss me?”

He holds his finger and thumb about an inch apart. “Maybe a little. Have you had lunch yet?”

“Nope. I came straight here.”

“I’ll order takeout. You like Subway?”

“Sure.” I follow him to the couch and plop down next to him.

“I’ll order on the app, and I’ll go pick it up.” He taps at his screen then hands it to me. “Pick what you want.”

A dude who doesn’t mind handing over his phone. That’s a first for me. Brodix never leaves his phone unattended and never wants me to see his screen. Both red flags. I know. I never should have agreed to go out with him in the first place. Not that it matters now.

Our order will take about twenty minutes. Nav makes good use of that time to feel me up on the couch until it’s time for him to pick our sandwiches up.

“While I’m gone, pick a movie for us to watch.” He kisses me again and takes off, leaving me alone.

I’m not sure how long it will take him. I pick an apocalypse theme action flick. Train to Busan. Guys dig action and I love zombie movies and shows. Z Nation will always be one of my top five series ever.

I get up and explore the living room and kitchen. He could use some pictures or something. I should give him the one I took of him next time I see him, or he invites me over. Which I’m hoping he will be doing a lot of. I don’t know what we are. I think we could become something. I’m not stupid. I don’t expect him to be in a rush to claim me or anything. I know I’m still in high school, and he has his life. Still, I know he’s into me and for now that’s all I need.

I’m tempted to snoop in his room. Look for evidence of other women, but I don’t want to invade his privacy. I didn’t see any girly stuff when I used his bathroom. Though I wasn’t exactly looking for any.

I don’t want to think the worst, but I know how some motorcycle men operate including my Uncle Link. He cheated on Pam. He’s lucky she forgave him, but I bet it’s always in the back of her mind. I don’t know that I could forgive such a betrayal.

Nav returns and we settle in on the couch for lunch and our movie.

“What time do you need to be back?”

“As long as I’m home before my mom and Kiesha. The daycare doesn’t close till six.”

“I don’t like being sneaky about this shit, but…”

“You’re worried about your rank in the club.”

“You’re a lot cooler than I thought you’d be.”

“Maybe you somehow missed this about me. I was raised around the club. I may be eighteen, but I know about club politics. I get that you’re in a delicate situation. You gotta worry about my Uncle Link. What happens here between us is no one’s business except ours.”

“So you’re good keeping this quiet for a little while? Once I get my patch shit will be different.”

“I only want you. This…whatever it is or could be…I like that it’s ours and ours alone.”

Nav’s reply is to come in hot and fast to claim my lips.

“How long till that birth control takes effect?”

“Seven days.”

He growls against my mouth, nipping my bottom lip in frustration.

“Don’t tell me you’ll be tired of me in a week?”

His knuckle strokes the apple of my cheek. “I’ll wait. However long you want, cupcake.”

“You really mean that?”

“Yeah. This could grow into something good. And good things come to those who wait.”

This time it’s me making a move on him.
