The Motorcycle Ride

SMASHWORDS:

A short story of a tall, dark man on his Harley who meets a proper suburban mom at a cafe, and takes her on a quick ride to paradise. All he offers is a short ride after she compliments him on his bike, but she is the one with the ultimate plan that brings together their two different worlds, to the pleasure of both.

"She came out of the cafe soon after, looked up and saw him. She took him and his bike into and through her eyes, and into her mind. Maybe it was the contrast to her own world of kids and work, and her “dress casual” office outfit that made what she saw as so alien to her. Her pressed pants clung to her legs snugly at the thigh, and a little looser at the ankle. She carried her coffee and her purse with all the aplomb of a suburban, practical mom. She looked down as she stepped off the curb, taking care where to land with her high heels. She was going to pass within a few feet of him."
