Raelynn smiled, "Thank you I'll let mom know. Michael and I used to tell her she should open her own diner and serve her signature burgers, milkshakes and homemade chips. I'll have to make those for you sometime too. What's your favorite flavor milkshake?" she asked with a smile, already planning another occasion to cook for him, hoping he'd be around more.
She listened to what he said and nodded in understanding, "Live for today. I understand." she hoped that in time he would open up to her. "So aside from working with Michael what do you do in your down time?" It wasn't really about him but about what he liked to do, that surely was a safe topic.

Alex thought for a long minute "My favorite milkshake would probable be a strawberry chocolate swirl one although I haven't had a milkshakes since I was like 17 maybe even younger." Alex says with a rare smile as he thought of the memory. His eyes lit up for a small moment and then he shook his head as his guard went back up a bit.
Alex looked at her as she asked about his down time and he shrugged "Usually I just work and go for a long ride." he says looking at her and deciding to let his guard down a bit to her "I use to love camping though but we been on the road for a while so there was no time for camping" he says

Raelynn made a mental note to make Alex a milkshake and surprise him next time he came around to see her, if there were a next time. And she really hoped their was. "You know... you could still have been camping while on the road." She reminded him with a little grin. Though she had the though of suggesting they go camping together but held the suggestion back, it was too early to suggest something like that, maybe.
"Maybe, you and Michael should come by sometime for a cookout. I'll make milkshakes with homemade ice cream." she suggested instead of the camping. "Are you busy the Saturday after Michael's birthday?" She asked, Alex. She knew she'd have to talk to Michael and let him know her plans.

Alex shook his head "Nah not the way we where traveling we only stayed put for a night so there was no real enjoyment in trying to camp. Although it was fun on the road" he says "Have you ever gone for a ride on one of Michael's Bikes?" he says knowing that Michael sheltered her as much as he could.
"Is that an offer to keep coming over" Alex said with a teasing flirt in his eyes and as she asked about Saturday he thought for a moment "Nothing that I know of why?" he asked looking at her with a spark in his eyes and then he tensed his jaw and it faded.

She shook her head to the negative about the bike ride but there was a sparkle of mischief in her eye to go with the negative shake, "No, but what he doesn't know won't hurt him." she took her self phone out, punched in the code to unlock it and swiped the screen a few times then turned the phone toward Alex, on the screen was a deep blue, nearly black Harley Davidson Raelyn's initials in a flowing script was etched in a silvery detail on the fenders. Her grin said she was proud of it.
Her grin dimmed a bit, but was still happy if not a bit nervous, "Do you want it to be an invitation to come around more? Cause if so then it totally is." Raelynn smirked, "Well you do now. I'll text you the time once I get things straightened out." she meant once she told Michael to come by then as well.

Alex smirked as she showed him the bike to her "Have you ridden it yet" he asked licking his lips at her mischief. He secretly hoped not he couldn't bare the thought of her riding alone if she hadn't rode on the back of one first. "He's going to flip when he sees it you know" he says looking from the picture to her.
"I only want the invitation if that's what you truly want" he says and then shook his head "It will probably be a bad idea if I do though..." he states trailing off and looking away from her trying to put that guard back up and clenching his fist as he brought them up to his chin thinking about it. He was fighting his need to be near her at this point and it showed in the hard look of his eyes.

She slowly shook her head. "It was a custom made special order. I have to pick it up at nightfall tonight." she tilted her head slightly a smirk playing across her face, "Are you offering to give me a lift to go pick it up?" she teased him, though she hoped he was, nothing would make her happier than wrapping her arms around him, even if it was to keep from falling off his bike any excuse to feel his warmth against her was better than not being close to him.
"Of course it's an invitation. I like having you around." Raelynn was surprised at herself for her boldness in admitting that she enjoyed having him near. She so wanted to tell him everything. How she'd silently watched him when he was around and how many times she'd wanted to approach him. Raelynn wanted to tell him she wasn't afraid of him that whatever his past held she didn't care, well she did care but not in the 'ew, you did what' kind of way, no her caring was that she wanted to calm and soothe him and give him something to look forward to. But, that would have to wait, she didn't want to scare him away. She reminded herself to go slow and let him make the big decisions or at least some of them.
