I’m waiting for a blind date, my cousin has set it up for me. She told me I need to get out more, this date is starting just after nightfall because of his job, but I don’t mind. I’m looking cute waiting outside. I hear a Harley approaching, he points to me as he approaches, and I toss my legs behind him getting on best I can. He makes me go inside and change into a regular tank and shorts. This tells me that he’s a gentleman.

I see a collared shirt under his black jacket and obviously, I can’t see past his red and black helmet. He tells me we’re going to go camping outside of town, he has a deep voice that rings into my soul in a way that makes me smile involuntarily. I just hold on tight as we go on the Highway heading west out of town. I didn’t think I’d be able to trust him this much, but I’m ready to go, he ain’t goin’ slow. He’s taken control, pulling the throttle back all the way pulling that clutch to thrust us forward we go, I’m begging for more as we continue to speed up faster and faster. I’m holding on tight trying to feel if he has abs and chest, he seems to be pretty fit.

I feel him a little more and he doesn’t even seem to notice that I’m completely under his shirt. I’m a junkie for his touch already, something about it screams that he’s wonderful. He fuels my fire he is causing my adrenaline high, I haven’t felt anything like this since I finally discovered Ignacio’s real name. My need for speed driving down the highway, his touch got me gunning for the finish. One touch is all it took for me to want to keep it coming if every day is like this, I’m a junkie for life and I know it. He fuels the fire that burns inside, my adrenaline high and keeps me soaked.

We go a little further out of town well over 100mph it doesn’t go much longer. He slows down almost all the way and we turn onto a dirt road that I did not see. And he goes about 40 until we come to a little campsite with a pickup and a campsite already set up. I’m so excited! He hasn’t taken off his helmet yet but I say to him, "I’m rising up, I’ve had enough. I feel alive! Take a look into my eyes, I’m serious. You took me for a ride, this time I’m a take you for a ride." He begins to take off his helmet, "leave it on, I like the unknown."

He allows me to take off his pants and I begin to play with him looking and feeling his legs as well. He walks away and starts the fire then comes back to me. "Go ahead and finish."

"Nope, I wanna save you for later."

"Very well. Looks like I will have to entice you another way."

"You should take off your helmet, or I can help you."

He stops me when I reach for his straps and puts his pants back on. "That isn’t being used right now." I finally get to take off his helmet. He is a mixed Hispanic and white, big lower lip. I give a quick kiss, it’s so nice. "So you often kiss and play on the first date?"

"No, with you I can’t seem to resist. And I don’t know why."

"Well, that’s good to know. Take a seat."

I take a seat by the fire. "What is there to drink?"

"Do you want wine, vodka or beer, soda or water?"

"Whisky please."

"I’m sorry I don’t have that."

"Beer please."

He passes me a beer, and we talk just for hours and hours. I feel so relaxed. After 12 beers I jump on him and we end up having sex. I don’t know if he was being polite and not acknowledging that I was flirting with him or if he was honestly completely oblivious. He was a wonderful man, I couldn’t help but get on him. It felt so nice to have my dry spell broken. I get off of him and just smile and kind of laugh. He kisses my neck and I laugh kind of goofy and I kiss him back. He gets up and stands up over me and walks over to his truck bed again, he’s pissing on the other side of it so I can’t see him. He comes back to where I can see him, and says softly, "I’m sorry I have not been forthright with you."

"What are you talking about? Do you have an STD? A wife? Children?"

"No to all of those."

"Then what is it?"

"My ID says driver’s license says Ignacio, but that is not my name, my name is James, not Mathew like I told you. Yeah, Little Flynn, you got it wrong. And I was right, you went on a date with me, you even loved it. But are you ready to love me as much as I love you?" I sprint down the road as fast as I can not wearing a single item of clothing just jamming my shoes on without socks. "Fine! If you can’t love me then I will destroy you!" I run over the ridge and I see him grabbing a crossbow from the pickup truck bed.

 Eventually, I can’t see him, but I also can’t see the road either. We were going 40 on this road. It seems like hours of walking and I take a rest. I see a light over the horizon from where I came, I begin sprinting. I’m not in the best shape for running, I tire quickly but I continue. But something small seems to pierce me from the back and I fall to the ground surpised looking at a bolt in my stomach and another one flies through my chest headlights illuminate the ground.

I open my eyes after I hit the ground, I bounced off. My blanket comes with me and my dad sprints in the room with a rifle presented. "Laurie! Laurie! Are you okay? Are you hurt?"

"Get out of here! You know I sleep naked in the summer!"

"Get on the bed and cover up then Laurie, I used to give you your baths its nothing I haven’t seen before."

"Dad! I’m naked!"

He turns around, "Well get up and back in bed. I came in here with a gun because you were giving off a blood-curdling scream! You’re my little girl Laurie, I came here to protect you, I would do that for your sisters too, but you’re the baby. Is there anything I can get you right now to help you go back to sleep? Did you give him blue balls this time?"

"Ummm, can I get 3 cookies and a glass of milk, please? And I tried to give him blue balls but he deserves it, that monster doesn’t need to breed let alone with me."

"No one is good enough for my little girl. Yes, I will get you cookies but I’m going to ask that you put on some clothes."

I put on a t-shirt and underwear and almost right away there’s a knock on the door, "come in daddy."

The door opens up and the motorcycle man comes in and fires the rifle I see the flash at the muzzle of the rifle.

I wake up and my dad is shaking me then goes to just holding me up, "baby it’s okay! it’s okay! calm down! Honey. Breathe with me; deep breath in1, 2, 3, 4, 5. Exhale slowly; 1, 2, 3, 4, 5."

I continue crying and just hug him tight. "It was the dreams again!"

"It’s okay honey. I’m glad you listened to me and started wearing clothes to sleep in. I know the dream ends with me not retrieving the milk and cookies. So I brought them with me. This is real, it’s okay it’s okay.

"Thank you, daddy, I love you." I hug him tightly

"Honey, love you more." He holds me then feeds me a cookie.
