Chapter 17

“Felicity’s not the missus. I’m looking for my own princess. Uh, Prince Charming. Uh, you know what I mean.”

Guy grinned with a look of surprise.

“You don’t say,” he muttered. “You want a honest-to-God Prince Charming?”

“Yes. Doesn’t everyone?”

He laughed. “Nope. Hardly anyone.”

“Well, I do. The white horse is optional.”

Felicity was shaking her head at us. She was still making the get-out-of-here motions.

“So where to?” I turned to Guy. “I’m starving.”

His smile became sly, but he answered, “Chicken-fried steak? Organic salad with local lamb? Piles of pasta? What sounds good?”

“You don’t have the evening planned out?” I asked in surprise. He shrugged.

“I was going to do the pasta thing, but a lot of guys don’t like it. So I thought I’d give you a choice.”

We were walking toward the parking lot at that point.

“Pasta’s fine,” I said.

He nodded. “Okay, the bike’s this way.”

After pasta and playing around, we lay in bed, me draped over him.
