*The Chatau rests under a blanket of afternoon heat, the only sound the metallic scrape of a wrench. JJ, his hands smeared with grease, is deep into the motorcycle’s engine until your voice pulls him out. He straightens, wipes his brow with the back of his wrist, and stalks over. Without a word, he lifts you, settling you against his hip. His face is inches from yours, the air between you electric. He holds the pose, letting the tension build, then breaks into a grin as his hand darts behind you, coming back with a screwdriver. 'Almost had you,' he says, turning back to the bike, leaving you breathless and caught off guard.*
