I snort. "Not at all."
She lets out a breath. "What else is on your bucket list?"
"I haven't ridden a mechanical bull."
She grins. "I would do that."
"You would?"
"Sure, why not?"
"That would be hot. Definitely put it on your bucket list, but I need to be there to see it."
She blushes, which only makes my dick stir.
"What else?" she asks.
"I want to watch Wimbledon live."
"The tennis match?"
"Yep."
"Do you play?"
"No. I barely watch tennis, but it would be cool to go. It's one of the top sporting matches in the world. Every year, Malin and I try to get tickets, but so far, no luck."
"What else?"
"I've always wanted to see the Northern Lights in Alaska. And I also want to sit in the natural hot springs during the Summer Solstice. But they are at different times of the year."
Her face brightens. "I had a passenger talk about that once. They were returning. I think it was in July?"
"Yes. You know what would make it better when I went?"
"What?"
"If you were with me."
She freezes.
The pressure of my blood thumps in my ears.
"I'll put it on my bucket list," she finally says.
I grin and kiss her. She consumes me until Hunter's voice booms, "Vanessa!"
She passes us with tears streaming down her face.
"Vanessa, wait up." Julieta jumps off my lap and follows her.
Hunter catches up to Julieta. "Out of the way."
"What did you do to her now?" Julieta asks.
"Stay out of our business," he snaps.
"Don't talk to Julieta like that," I bark.
