“You know you’re one lucky girl, right?” Steel said to me as we pulled over behind a gas station.

“Yeah? Why’s that?”

“Well, the cops back there all know my name. They know exactly who I am. They don’t have a fucking clue who you are. You’ve still got a chance to break away from this free and clear.”

“Maybe so, but why would I want to do that? This is the most fun I’ve had in my life.”

“Fun? This is about fun to you? Do you understand how bad you’re about to fuck your life up?”

“I just want to be with you, Steel. I don’t care what happens other than that.”

“Listen to me, Sara, and listen to me very closely. You pulled a gun on a police officer. You’re lucky you weren’t shot. You have to advantage of them not knowing your name, where you’re from, or anything about you. You have a chance to live your fucking life. Don’t fuck it all up over me.”

“What are you saying, Steel?”

“I’m saying that the cops are going to breathing down my neck for a while. I’m going to need to lay low for a while.”

“That’s fine. I’ll lay low with you. I don’t care.”

“I don’t think you understand me. I’m going to lay low by myself. It’s too risky to have you with me. I’ll be lucky if I make it a week without being arrested and my charges are going to be a whole lot more serious now than they were yesterday. I’m looking at some real time in the joint and you will be too if they catch you with me and realize you were the woman who pulled a gun on a cop. You don’t want a record. You’re too beautiful and have so much potential. Don’t throw it away over me. I’m not worth it.”

He grabbed my face and kissed me deeply.

“No matter what,” he continued. “You’re always gonna be my twisted angel.”

He kissed me again and pushed up against the wall. There were people all over, but we just didn’t care. He pulled my panties to the side, took out his cock, and lifted me into the air. I wrapped my arms around his neck and kissed him as he moved his rock hard shaft in and out of me.

This was different than our first time in the abandoned house. That sex felt was all about lust and want. While those elements were still present, this was about passion. There was something between us, even if it did have to come to an end. We were going to make such a lasting impression that we would never forget one another for the rest of our lives.

With a loud grunt, he finished inside of me and I kissed him with tears running down my cheeks. I wasn’t ready to let him go. I wanted to stay with him, but he wasn’t giving me a choice in the matter and I didn’t want to beg him to change his mind.

“So what happens next?” I asked.

“Well, where were you headed when your car broke down?”

“I was on my way to my sister’s house in Utah.”

“All right, here’s what we’re going to do. There’s a bus depot right down the street. They have buses going all over the place. Let’s focus on getting you to her house as soon as possible.”

“What about my car? It’s still at the motel.”

“I’ll make sure it gets taken care of for you. You have insurance on it?”

“Yes, full coverage.”

“Okay good, because you’re not going to see it again. It ties you to the motel the night this all started so we’ll have to dispose of it. I’ll have one of the guys call Katie from the bar and make sure your information card is destroyed as well.”

I didn’t question him. I simply said okay and we rode down to the bus station. He stayed with me while I waited and didn’t leave my side until the bus was ready to board.

“Am I ever going to see you again?” I asked.

“Angel, it’s probably better if you forget about me as soon as this bus pulls away. I’m no good for you. You have so much ahead of you.” The tears started streaming down my face. He kissed me on my forehead. “That’s enough of that. Don’t you waste one more tear on me. Just think about the last couple days and remember the wild ride it was.”

By the time I boarded the bus, he’d gotten on his bike and rode away. It was a whirlwind romance that ended far too quickly for me, but it was one I was never going to forget.

I couldn’t believe the adventure I’d just been on. It didn’t matter who I told, there was no way in hell anyone would ever believe me. It sounded like something straight off the big screen or something, but I lived it and nobody could ever take that away from me. I was a fucking real estate agent from suburbia and I’d had more excitement in 48 hours than most of my neighbors would ever have in their life.

So what was ahead of me? I’d already told my sister I was coming and I was sure she was probably worried sick. Fortunately, I’d been able to text her and tell her about the car problems and that I’d be delayed a day, but she was probably still wondering why she hadn’t heard from me and why I wasn’t at her house yet. I’d lost my phone at some point, so I had no way of getting ahold of her and letting her know I’d be late.

I still had so many loose ends at home that I was going to have to deal with sooner or later, whether I wanted to or not. I had invested seven years of my life into my relationship with Steve. It was kind of stupid to end things the way they were. There were lots of things to sort out.

Was there any chance for him and I to work things out? I wasn’t sure. I didn’t want to rule anything out, but there was no way things were ever going to be able to go back the way they were before. Not after the experienced I’d just had.

I had some big decisions to make.
