Page 69 of Out of Sight

Claire squeaked in surprise at the sudden stop, but didn’t waste more than a second getting her bearings before jumping out of the cab and running into the care facility.

Finally I got to have a really good laugh. Man, I thought it was bad when we were first running from the Morellis and she had to pee all the time at the different airports. I thought…I don’t know what I thought. That she was just a nervous flier or something? But now I knew the truth: Claire had one small flaw: the smallest bladder in human existence.

After I got my amusement out, I pulled away from the main entrance and drove over to the loading zone at the side of the building to park the moving truck and follow Claire inside. The black sedan accompanying us did the same, one agent staying in the car to guard our vehicles, but the second agent following silently behind me. I didn’t make friends with any of the guys who were still taking turns watching us until the rest of the Morelli trials were over; it would only suck if they got hurt in the line of duty, and I was still missing Marshal Jim Marshall all the time.

This care facility was clean, but sparse. There weren’t a lot of pictures hanging on the walls, but all of the staff were smiling brightly and eager enough to tell me how to get to Kaylie’s room. They were excited to finally meet me, since I never got a chance to visit before I was arrested and then I was too worried about embarrassing Kaylie as her felon brother to come see her after.

Thanks to Claire I knew I was more than just a felon and I held my head up high.

Her door was cracked open, so I gave a light knock before pushing it open the rest of the way. Then I ducked from the flying Romantasy. Why were those books so damn thick?!

I looked at the two women sitting together on the couch and giggling up a storm.

“Troublemakers, the both of ya!” I scolded, shaking my fist dramatically at the pair.

They’d talked on the phone a few times since Claire was released from the hospital in Portland and soon became thick as thieves. Claire was so kind and patient as Kayliedid her best to keep focus and speak, no matter how long it took her to form the words. I was nervous at first, knowing that Kaylie had some permanent deficits after her brain injury, but Claire understood that and didn’t let it stop her from bonding with my sister.

I fell even more in love with her every time she thought of Kaylie and put my baby sister’s needs first.

“It was her idea,” Claire tattled, pointing at Kaylie.

Kaylie just lifted her shoulders in a little shrug, looking utterly unrepentant.

“Troublemakers,” I emphasized, but I couldn’t keep the affection off of my face. My two favorite people were here and having fun with each other. My life was slowly becoming a dream come true. I walked over to give Kaylie a half-hug and a kiss on the cheek. “Hello, sister. It looks like you’re all packed up. Do you need anything before Claire and I start loading up?”

She shook her head. She was still a little shy about talking a lot with me, something that apparently didn’t apply to Claire. Totally unfair to me, but totally made me more smitten with Claire than ever.

“Alright then. You girls have had your fun. Claire and I will load up the UHaul and your medical transport should be here in the next fifteen minutes or so. Ready to get this show on the road?”

She nodded enthusiastically.

“Alright then, honey, ready for your workout today?”

Claire got up and stretched, making her tits stick out just so perfectly. I caught her eye, seeing the smirk. “Tease,” I pouted.

“Oh, you’re not complaining,” she dismissed me, holding Kaylie’s hand for another moment. “I’ll help him with thefurniture real quick and then let him do all the boxes himself. Do you still want me to ride back up north with you?”

“No,” Kaylie said slowly, mouthing the words carefully. “You should ride together, keep each other entertained. I have someone to talk to for the drive already.”

Claire frowned. “Are you sure? You don’t really know the driver. It could be boring with just you, him, and your aide.”

“I may not know him yet, but I will. Plus, Denise said he is hot, so I’ll be okay.”

Claire laughed. “If you say so, chickadee. I’ll keep your brother entertained, don’t worry.”

If I wasn’t paying attention I might have missed the wink she aimed at me. Oh no. What is she thinking? How as she planning on torturing me this time?

It didn’t take long to load up all of Kaylie’s things in the rented truck. We were about half finished when her medical transport van arrived. And I had to say—keeping in mind that I only had eyes for Claire—that Denise was right: her driver was a total hunk. She would have fun ogling him for the five hour drive up to Alameda.

Claire obviously agreed, giving me an amused grin and Kaylie a thumbs up after she was all strapped in and buckled up. Kaylie gave us a careful wave before her van pulled away from the building, leaving just Claire and I to finish bringing out the last few boxes of Kaylie’s stuff.

Then we were back on the road again, making our way home. We’d arrived in town late last night and got up at the crack of dawn to pick up the UHaul, but now it was just past noon with another long drive ahead of us. I took the first turn behind thewheel, knowing that Claire would want us to stop for a pee break in another hour or so anyway. Damn tiny bladder.

I didn’t have much time to lament the many pit stops ahead of us when I felt Claire’s hand settle on my thigh.

It’s just a hand,I reminded myself. Claire was a modest person by nature. She wouldn’t try anything wild with a bunch of cars all around us. She was just a very touchy-feely person. She liked physical affection. Claire's hand on my thigh didn’t mean anything exciting, I tried to explain to my dick, but he was just happy to be near her and wanted to reach closer.

How romantic,I rolled my eyes, scoffing at the train of thought.
