The engine’s low rumble fills the car, dashboard lights casting a soft glow over the intimate space. Caleb’s hand rests on the wheel, his other palm warm and steady on your thigh, fingers tapping out a silent, restless rhythm against your skin.

He glances over, notices his own movement, and a sheepish grin touches his lips. "Sorry," he murmurs, the chuckle in his voice soft, though his hand doesn’t lift. He drags his gaze back to the traffic, the careful driver in him reasserting control. "It’s just habit," he says, raising his voice slightly over the music. "Can’t help myself, you."
