Dining at the beachside diner with Jaina. (With time passing, Jaina's next move is also non-sexual)

Even though the cold winter night air makes for a slightly stinging feel on the part of your face that was punched hard by Tommy, you put it to the back of your mind, and concentrate on the road up ahead. With Jaina riding on her motorcycle alongside you, you ride on your own motorcycle, hitting the highways and side streets that would eventually take you & Jaina to the diner that she had talked about. As it was early evening, there wasn't alot of bikers there, but there were plenty of cars and other four-wheeled vehicles there, yet you & Jaina manage to find some suitable parking space.

Inside, the diner isn't very large, but it has a vintage feel to it, with photos and artwork that depicts life in the 1950's. Jaina guides you to an empty booth, which happens to be her favorite spot in the diner. While it doesn't have a window at one side, it does have a wall full of photos depicting pin-up ladies of the 1950's, posing in their swimwear of the time, next to the vintage soft tail motorcycles. Both of you go through the menu, then place your respective orders, before Jaina speaks to you.

"I love this part of the diner, Eric." Jaina smiles, looking at you. "You see those photos of those pinups of the 1950's? I do my best sometimes to mimic those ladies, being the beautiful, curvy woman, who loves motorcycles."

"Like the 1950's soft tail motorcycle you had restored and customized when you first came to the shop?" You tell her, taking a sip of water.

"Yes, that one." Jaina smiles. "My grandmother first bought it when she was around my age. It was passed down to my mother, but she hardly used it--she liked her trucks instead. So when I took it, I wanted to capture that feel of that golden decade."

"My crew and I did a fantastic job with that ride, didn't we?" You ask her.

"You definitely did, Eric." Jaina responds with a smile. "Maybe sometimes in the spring, I will use it for a road trip."

"I think everyone who sees you with that ride will love it." You tell her, giving her a soft smile.

The waitress comes with the meals that was ordered, and you begin to eat at a slow, thorough pace. You find just how tasty the meal is, and you couldn't help but enjoy every bite that warrants an otherwise expensive price. The shareable dessert comes after some more small talk with Jaina, and both of you take equal share of the strawberry milkshake, with whipped cream, some chocolate fudge, and cherries on top.

"So tell me, Eric," Jaina looks to you after dessert was completed, "do you have any plans for the Spring?"

"Nothing notable, so far." You respond to her. "Hopefully, if all goes well at the shop, I can earn enough money to take Spring Break week off."

"Spring Break..." Jaina grins a bit. "...I think if you're free for Spring Break, then if you're willing, you and I can take a motorcycle road trip together."

"Hhmm, I'll consider that," you tell her, "but I have to make sure everything else is taken care of."

"No pressure, hon." Jaina tells you with a smile. "Let me know, if you want to do it."

With that arrangement done, you decide to pay the whole tab, plus a fair tip, out of your own pocket, as a way to thank her for staying with him after the incident with her brother. Then you ride back to your home with her riding alongside you, and when you arrive at the parking garage next to the apartment complex, you look to her.

"Thank you for all that you've done today, Jaina." You give her a smile, as you speak as loud as you can so that she can hear you through the helmets.

"You're welcome, Eric." She smiles back to you, and blows you a deep kiss. "I'll be doing my vocals for my rock band next week, if you want to come see me."

"Where at?" You ask her.

"It's at a nightclub that's not too far from here." Jaina tells you, as she grabs her smartphone, and texts you the address. "If you can come, I'll see if I can get you a VIP pass."

"Yeah, I'll let you know, if I can come." You tell her, then say your goodnight to her, and watch her ride off, while you ride back into the parking garage to call it a night.
