CHAPTER FIFTEEN

“FAVORITE MOVIE?”

Sammie turned toward Kieran from the passenger seat. The windows of his truck were down, the warm morning breeze sending her hair flying wildly about her face.

“Huh?”

Kieran chuckled. “I want to know what your favorite movie is.”

Sammie thought for a moment. They hadn’t spoken much since saying goodbye to Kieran’s parents and hitting the highway back to the city. An awkwardness had permeated the morning, a gentle, balmy breeze wrapping around Sammie. The knowledge of what they had done the night before on either side of the bedroom wall was a persistent presence in her mind, a slow motion film playing on repeat. It had felt more illicit than what they had already done together. More collaborative as well, despite the fact they had each recorded their portions of the video separately. Kieran would edit them together after practice, or so he’d told her, their voices hushed as they’d loaded their overnight bags into his truck.

Maybe it wasn’t such a good idea to dwell on memories of fingering herself while trapped in the small cab together.

“The Fifth Element,” she finally responded. Kieran’s brows raised, even as he kept his eyes on the road.

“Huh.”

Sammie frowned. “What’s wrong with it?”

Another chuckle from Kieran. “Nothing. I would never have guessed it, but now that I know, that definitely feels like a you movie.”

Sammie grinned. “Bruce Willis and Mila Jovovich were my bi awakening.”

That pulled a full laugh from him. “Okay, favorite musician?”

“Wait.” Sammie twisted in her seat to face him better. Kieran was wearing sunglasses, obscuring his eyes, and Sammie decided she hated sunglasses. “If we’re doing twenty questions then we have to play by the rules. It’s my turn to ask.”

“Okay, shoot.” The amused grin that split his face had Sammie’s heart bouncing around in her chest.

“Well,” she said slowly, thinking. “What’s your favorite movie?”

Kieran fell quiet, lips pressed into a line.

“Oh, come on.” Sammie reached out and pushed his arm. “I told you mine.”

“You’ll laugh.”

“I promise I won’t!”

Another long pause. Sammie watched him, taking in the strong line of his nose, his high cheekbones, that full bottom lip that he sometimes bit down on when he was thinking hard. The way the morning light brought out the golds and reds in his short beard.

“It’s WALL-E.”

A choked laugh escaped Sammie, and she slapped a hand over her mouth.

“You said you wouldn’t laugh!” His tone was frantic, but he was smiling at her.

“It’s just not what I expected.” She fought down another giggle. “I love WALL-E, it’s a great movie.”

Kieran’s brows furrowed in distrust, but he hummed thoughtfully. “My turn. Same question, who’s your favorite musician?”

“Pass.”

Kieran gasped. “You can’t pass!”

“I don’t know the answer!”

“What do you mean you don’t know the answer?”

Sammie shrugged, unable to keep a wide grin from spreading across her face. “I have too many favorites, don’t make me pick just one.”

“Fine.” He let out an exasperated huff. “Where’s a place you want to go on vacation?”

She thought for a moment. “Is it too boring if I say a place here in the states?”

“Maybe a little.
