“A spoon?” he asked incredulously as he lumbered back into the Betty’s cab five minutes later. He’d zipped across the highway and behind the building, not believing me when I told him I’d had to use my heels and a spoon because I neglected to put on my stakes.

A mistake I wouldn’t soon repeat. They were now securely strapped to my thighs and I wouldn’t be taking them off ever again. Maybe not even in the shower. Maybe not even during sex.

“How the hell did you manage that?”

I shrugged, polishing off the Slurpee as I started the truck, swaying a little to the left. My body worked hard to heal the wound to my head, but it throbbed now that the adrenaline had worn off and the dizziness seemed like it was only getting worse.
