That lady is pretty.
I sink lower in my seat. I still can't seem to get her out of my head and we've been driving for a while. He has.
"You okay?" Killian's voice slid in my ears, soothing every cell in my body. I should scold him about picking me up like that again. Just because Kate ain't here, doesn't mean not many ladies wouldn't have my head. And he's a professor.
"Mmm." I whisper, shaking the thought off. His car is cool. I love the air conditioner blowing on my skin. "Just thinking."
I hear a chuckle. "I'm right here. You can talk to me instead of circulating your thoughts around me."
I narrow my gaze as I turn my head to face him. "For someone who left me twelve messages, you sure talk high." Saying that out loud makes me grin. He did think about me all day. I feel very accomplished.
Killian spares me a gaze then averts his eyes back to the road. He leans his other hand, not on the steering, to the side then places it on my thigh.
