Before leaving the kitchen table, Chancho whispered into Chloe’s ear, “Thank you for sticking with me.”
Chloe opened the back door and ushered him out. Beneath an austere January sun, she brushed her lips across his cheek. “My pleasure, Motorcycle.” She rocked back on her heels and blinked several times in the bright light. “Forgive a gal for being so bold, but recent self-discovery compels I ask.”
“Fair enough, señorita. I’m afraid it is I who has put you in such a position, by…” he pursed his lips, “being less than forthwith.”
She rolled her eyes. “What’s next for you and me, Chancho Villarreal?”
“First, Miss Chloe O’Brien,” he drew her against himself, “I propose we consider a little more formality in our relationship.”
“Oh? I don’t know, that sounds awful…” she copied his gesture from earlier, “rigid.”
“I expect both flexibility and rigidity to be involved, yes.” He winked before turning serious. “Then I was thinking…” he closed his eyes, drew a deep breath, and then engaged her completely. “About the boy in the red coat—”
“Yes and yes!” Chloe leapt into his grasp, wrapping her legs around him.
“¡Para el amor de dios!” Chancho teetered and fell forward. He caught the two of them with with his hands at the last minute. Chancho’s efforts to protest were quickly distracted and forgotten, as with tenacious lips Chloe imbued him with the power of the eagle’s wings.
