A Nice Normal Car Ride.

This was nice. This felt normal. This was girlfriend boyfriend stuff. What could be more normal than a guy and a girl going on a brunch date? What could go wrong? I even allowed myself an occasional glance at Emma as I drove through the streets. God she was beautiful. Her face was hidden away by a black curl as she stared out the window, her chin was resting on the heel of her hand, as scenes of the city blurred past her face. A small hint of a smile was playing at her lips in the reflection of the window, her makeup was muted compared to the night before but still enough to bring life and sparkle to her natural beauty.

It seemed Emma was lost in her own world as I drove through the city streets, and I couldn't help but feel like I was intruding on something private as she stared through the window. I tried to focus my attention on the road but I couldn't help myself and dared another glance at her, lurid thoughts and memories of last night were at the forefront despite the victory of our revelations. Should I ask her about last night? About Owen? Did sex really mean nothing to her? Lost in my thoughts I stared too long into the sun, her reflection's lips twitched into life. With a start I realized that she was staring at me the entire time. God damnit. I braced myself for the inevitable teasing. Looking away from her pointedly I stared at the center dash at the GPS instructions calmly barking out instructions at me, nearly there, one more turn, just pretend you were looking ahead at the plaza.

"Eyes on the road Isaac"

"Just making sure we're going the right way" I muttered under my breath, I leaned over with a hand and hastily enlarged the image as a pretense.

"You sure? Sure looked like you were checking me out again," Emma said, a smile tugging at the corner of her lips as she turned to face me. "Something on my face then?"

"Uh... no?" I stammered out, I could feel heat rush to my cheeks as I tried to hide my embarrassment at being caught. I heard a shuffle of movement and in the corner of my eyes Emma rearranged herself so that she was lying on her side against the seat, her cheek in her palm and her eyes fixed on me with an impish grin on her face.

"What?" I flicked my eyes back and forth between her and the red light before I settling at at the red light mocking me.

"That's too bad," Emma sighed theatrically, her hand rose from her knee and traced a path from her knee up her thigh to the hem of her jeans. She rolled her lower lip inward, giving me a sultry look, "You looked like you were expecting something. This car ride isn't a ploy right? Put me in your debt so you can leverage a favour so you can get in my pants."

My jaw dropped open, but I kept my eyes fixed on the road. The red light faded into green and the car behind me blared impatiently. The spell was broken. Emma's grin widened with mischievousness at my plight, "Emma, I'm trying to drive here" I said in a strained voice. I fought to keep my attention on the road, but I felt myself stir as fantasies of Emma riding me in my car **** their way into my mind's eye.

"Happy. No, not quite. Smug. That's what I'm looking for. You looked smug." Emma said airily. "It's kind of douchey" I felt my face flush as we came to a stop at the intersection. I felt her fingers brush against mine as they danced on my lap. My heart leapt into my chest as she moved closer and pressed herself up against my arm. Her voice had taken a seductive tone, a hand suddenly graced my knee before slowly moving up and down my thigh, "Bet you wanted to have that shitty rom com fantasy of fucking me in your car. Hard already Isaac? How are you going to satisfy me in bed if something so simple gets you aroused?"

I had no answer for her as I struggled to keep my face composed and on the road. Goddamnit another red. Her face suddenly at my side, her warm breath tickling my cheek, I opened my mouth to answer her but the GPS cut me off instead chirping off a set of instructions in a plain british voice, "You missed the turn by the way, you're in the wrong lane" She giggled at my expression, "You can pull up ahead at the next intersection on the right and loop in through the back"

I felt a sigh of relief escape my lips as the light turned green. I sped through the intersection, taking the first right hand turn that the GPS indicated. The traffic cleared up and I found myself entering the plaza that was our destination, Emma laughed and patted my thigh, "Don't worry Isaac, you can make that fantasy a reality soon."

"Right now?" I shot back in a **** attempt to regain some semblance of dignity as I swung the car through the exit and found an open parking spot.

Emma made a face and rolled over to face the window, her shoulders lifting up and down in a fit of silent laughter, "Nope, don't think you would survive"

"Gee, thanks. Glad I'm being held in such high esteem by my girlfriend "I snorted out a laugh as I shifted the car into park. I **** a smile and hoped it looked natural, "Speaking of fantasies" I paused and looked over at Emma pointedly who had a look of polite curiosity on her face.

"Well, do go on then" Emma said with a wave of her hand.

"It's like I'm dreaming still. This doesn't feel real"

"Want me to give you a pinch then?" Emma leaned over, and clicked her nails like a crab before making a mock lunge at me.

"How about a blow job instead?" I blurted out before I could stop myself, I sighed at my self and cringed internally waiting for the inevitable tongue lashing. Damn intrusive thoughts.

Surprise and disbelief flashed on Emma's face before she composed herself, somehow my comment managed to earn a smile instead of a slap. She looked at me and shook her head in mock disappointment before she turned away from me, her shoulders shaking with quiet stifled giggles. Soon the giggles finally spilled over and turned into full blown laughter as she unlatched the door and almost fell out of the car in a fit of hysterics.

Emma wiped the tears from her eyes and gave me a wide grin, "Such a romantic." Without another word she slid out of the car with a bounce, leaving me exasperated. Shaking my head with a huff, I mirrored her and locked the car and started down the paved parking lot and made my way over to the café following behind an Emma positively bouncing with energy. She did a little twirl mid-step to face me, her dark raven hair whipping through the air, her blue eyes were bright with excitement tempered by impatience as she beckoned me over with a wave.
