[He's got his own bag slung over one shoulder]

Ready when you are.

Re: Day 357 - Tinder Game

[unbr8kable]

Let's motor, then.

[She angles her head towards the exit, heading out to the bike]

'S been a long time since we did this, huh.

Re: Day 357 - Tinder Game

[crossmyheartandhope]

[Falling in beside her]

S'been like forever.

Re: Day 357 - Tinder Game

[unbr8kable]

There's still time to switch it up if you'd prefer. Last time we went to Disney...I know this ain't quite as exciting.

[Heads to the bike and hops on, though there's plenty of space for him to mount as well]

Re: Day 357 - Tinder Game

[crossmyheartandhope]

Naw... this is great. Hard to beat a view like that, right?

[Hopping on behind her]

Re: Day 357 - Tinder Game

[unbr8kable]

You got a point. Better not miss the show, then.

[Once they're helmeted up, she revs the bike only a little more than necessary before speeding off towards the bay. It's a rumblier ride than his bike, less speed and more power, the handlebars placed where she can sit upright. He can, too, though spoilers, she probably isn't going to complain if he leans closer]

Re: Day 357 - Tinder Game

[crossmyheartandhope]

[He is definitely leaning closer - close enough to wrap an arm around her, at least, settling in behind her]

Re: Day 357 - Tinder Game

[unbr8kable]

[Excellent]

[The roads are empty as ever and they make good time, pulling off the road near the base of Rainbow Bridge while the sky is still bright and orangey, only just beginning to hint at darkening.]

[When she switches off the motor, she removes her helmet and takes a moment, turning to smile at him]

Re: Day 357 - Tinder Game

[crossmyheartandhope]

[He smiles back, soft and fond]

Gimme half a sec to get my leg off, kay? Then I'm good to go.

Re: Day 357 - Tinder Game

[unbr8kable]

Oh man. If it really took half a second that'd be pretty dangerous, just legs shooting off all over the place...

[She nudges him, gentle, before getting up; shucks her jacket and stretches her shoulders as he gets ready]

Re: Day 357 - Tinder Game

[crossmyheartandhope]

[Dude, jet-powered leg. I been doing it wrong this whole time.

[Plops himself down on the ground by the motorcycle and gets going with a scredriver; it doesn't take him half a second, but it doesn't take him very long, either]

Re: Day 357 - Tinder Game

[unbr8kable]

[Practice makes perfect]

[She watches him, curious, then offers him a hand]

Carrying you in front'd be a little more secure, considering... 'Less you think it's a little too personal.

Re: Day 357 - Tinder Game

[crossmyheartandhope]

[Takes her hand, and pulls himself up]

Hey, whatever's easier.

...you sure you don't mind hauling me up?

Re: Day 357 - Tinder Game

[unbr8kable]

I asked you to do this, remember?

[She three-legged races over a couple more steps before turning to face him]

...Okay. I guess--jump up?

Re: Day 357 - Tinder Game

[crossmyheartandhope]

[Flushes, a little, but does as she says]

Like this...?

Re: Day 357 - Tinder Game

[unbr8kable]

Yeah--hold on--

[She leans (definitely does not stagger) back a step--eventually hitches him up to where she can get her arms under his thighs and he can get his leg around her waist and she can brace him from beneath without anyone falling over, her hands linked into a makeshift seat. A beat, then she takes a few tentative steps to see if he's secure; when she turns to check his expression her nose bumps into his cheek instead]

Okay?

Re: Day 357 - Tinder Game

[crossmyheartandhope]

Yeah, I'm good.

[He flushes darker, perhaps at the situation, or perhaps at the unexpected intimacy of the position]

Are, uh. Are you?

Re: Day 357 - Tinder Game

[unbr8kable]

[Her cheeks are dark as well, but she Eskimo kisses him nevertheless]

...Yeah, this should work.

[Another smile, and she steps out to the ground--takes another step up, to the side of the bridge footings]

Re: Day 357 - Tinder Game

[crossmyheartandhope]

[He nuzzles her back - settles in, holding on]

You need me to do something just say, okay?

Re: Day 357 - Tinder Game

[unbr8kable]

Lemme know if you start slipping.

[She squeezes her grip, making sure he's secure, before taking the next step, the one that takes them from up to sideways in a stomach-lurching instant. The step that follows staggers a bit, and she leans into him, pressing upward--forward--steadies out before they're high enough to worry about the fall back down.

After that, trudging up the bridge footing is pretty simple to do. Her hands stay looped under his rear to support him, though by this point he's mostly held up by her and the core training she'd added into her routine a couple months ago. She's ditched her jacket before starting out and she is warm through the thin fabric of her dress shirt]

Re: Day 357 - Tinder Game

[crossmyheartandhope]

Damn, dude, lookit you go.

You really having been working out.

Re: Day 357 - Tinder Game

[unbr8kable]

It's the thing to do in prison, right?

[They keep walking, her steps slow but steady, and the ground slooowly falls away behind them]

...Plus. Wanted to do a better job if we ever did this again.

Re: Day 357 - Tinder Game

[crossmyheartandhope]

You did plenty good last time.

[From here, it's easy to press a kiss to her chin, so he does]

Kinda knocking it out of the park this time, though.

Re: Day 357 - Tinder Game

[unbr8kable]

[She huffs, somewhere between shy and amused]

Oh, so I'm almost keeping up with you on a regular day?

This's at least one thing I can do better'n you can--so far.

Re: Day 357 - Tinder Game

[crossmyheartandhope]

Pretty sure you got the market cornered on walking up walls and carting me around legless, both.
