TWENTY-NINE

Jess

“WHERE
are we going?” I asked.

“I already told you. Lunch,” Dick responded.

“
Why are we driving the family car? And where for lunch?”

“It’s not a family car, it’s a performance sedan. And I don’t know yet.”

“It has four doors. That’s two too many,” I said. “And, I want that noodle soup.”

He changed lanes, passed a slow-moving truck, and glared at me. “I like this car.”

“It’s a sedan. I don’t like sedans.”

He pulled against the paddle shifter three times and mashed the gas.

The car took off like a rocket. In a few seconds we were going twice the speed of the traffic. “Holy shit!” I shouted.

“See?”

“Okay,” I admitted. “It’s a performance sedan. But it’s still a sedan.”

He exited the highway and pulled up to the stop light beside the BMW dealership.

I pointed toward the display of cars. “See? They have a ton of BMWs that are coupes.”

“Let’s have a look,” he said.

He turned into the lot and parked. A salesman came running up to the car and asked if he wanted to trade it in on a new M5.

“It is new,” Dick said.

We laughed and eventually walked in to the showroom. A white car sat on the showroom floor with a big red bow tied around the top of it.

“Awwe. That’s so cute,” I said.

“What?” he asked.

“The car with the bow.”

“What?” he asked. “You like the bow?”

“Yeah, but look at the car. It’s different than the rest of the coupes. See how it sits lower, and has the performance wheels? It’s got a mean look to it. It looks fast.”

I liked that I knew a little bit about cars, and I wasn’t a typical girl when it came to vehicles. If I was rich, I would have a car like the white car and I would drive it fast everywhere I went.

My car, on the other hand, was a piece of shit. It wasn’t even paid for, and I had a payday loan against it in addition to the bank loan.

Dick walked around to the back of the car and looked at the trunk. “It’s an M4,” he said. “It
is
the performance model.”

“Told ya,” I said.

“Look at the top. It’s a convertible.”

I laughed. “It is not, it’s a hardtop.”

“No, actually the BMWs have a hard top,” he said. “But it retracts into the trunk. Best of both worlds.”

He walked around to the side. Out of curiosity, I asked the price. He glanced at the window sticker. “This one’s 91 grand with the options it has.”

“Holy crap,” I said. “Let’s go eat.”

It really didn’t matter if it was 90 dollars or ninety grand, I couldn’t afford it. As I mentally prepared to leave, a salesman walked up to us and shook Dick’s hand.

“Dick, right? I remember you when you bought the blue M5.”

“Yep. Good memory,” Dick said. “Hey can you answer a question?”

“Sure.”

“Why’s this got a bow on it?”

“Well, it’s been sold. Someone bought it as a gift for a special person.”

Some rich fucker.

“We’re waiting for her to pick it up,” he said.

Awwe, it’s a her. He bought it for his wife.

“Huh. What’s her name? The lucky girl?”

“Jessica.” The salesman said.

My heart skipped a beat. I knew the car wasn’t for me, but it was really cool to think about the person who was getting it had my same name.

“Jessica? No shit?” Dick said. “Jessica what?”

“Shunk,” the salesman said.

My legs did the wobbly thing. I raised my hand like a kindergartner wanting to ask a question of the teacher. “Huh? Who?”

“Shunk,” he said. “Jessica Shunk.”

My hands were shaking. I looked at Dick. Dick shrugged. I looked at the salesman. He grinned.

“My name’s Jessica Shunk.”

“You don’t say,” he said. “Do you have an I.D.?”

I nodded. “But it’s got to be a coincidence.”

“Well, do you know your driver’s license number? We have it saved for her under her driver’s license number.”

I reached into my purse, pulled out my wallet, and stared down at my license. “TS-901-497--”

“7557?” he asked.

I bit my lower lip and nodded my head. I felt faint. It couldn’t be. There was no way…

“I love you, Jess,” Dick said.

I looked at the salesman. He nodded and smiled. I looked at Dick. He grinned. It made no sense that they’d play with someone’s emotions the way they were. I actually thought it was true.

“Well.” Dick reached into his pocket. “Here’s the key.”

You’re serious?

I swallowed hard. “You’re serious.”

He tossed me the key.

I pressed the button on the key fob. The lights flashed. I pressed it again. They flashed again.

“Dick?”

He walked around the edge of the car and gave me a kiss. “I love you. Enjoy it.”

My eyes welled with tears. “It’s really…”

“It sure is.”

“Dick it’s…”

“It’s yours. It’s already paid for, so no arguing.”

He must have sold the diamond. I shook my head. “I love you too.”

“You’re driving to lunch,” he said. “Let’s go.”

I looked around. We were surrounded by glass. “How do we get out of here.”

“If you want to take the bow off, I’ll open up the south wall,” the salesman said.

My heart was racing. I helped Dick remove the bow, put it in the trunk, and got inside. After a quick adjustment of the seat, I gripped the steering wheel and looked around the interior.

“It’s just like the Ferrari. Double clutch manual with no pedal. Just paddle shifters.”

“Holy shit!” I said. “That’s awesome. Dick, it’s perfect.”

“Where are we going for lunch?” he asked.

“I’ve got an idea,” I said.

“Where?” he asked.

“You’ll see.”

THIRTY

Dick

“Where are we going for lunch?” I asked in as whiny of a voice as I could.

With her sunglasses on and the top down, Jess paid little attention to my question. She signaled and changed lanes. A few seconds later, she signaled and changed back.

“Where are we going for lunch?”

“You’ll see,” she said.

I suspected we were going to the soup kitchen. She’d been asking about it for some time, and was upset that she didn’t get to finish her bowl of soup on the night we saw Drake and Duc.

“Soup?” I asked.

With the top down, the wind blew her hair in every direction. She tapped her fingers against the steering wheel. “Nope.”

It was rewarding seeing her pleased with the car. It was the least I could do for her, considering how much she meant to me. I had much more planned for her, but had to wait until we were somewhere we could talk before I could go into detail.

She got off the highway, pulled up to the stoplight, and turned on the turn signal.

“We going shopping?” I asked.

“Nope.”

The left arrow turned green and she sped through the light. Another lane change. this time to the right, and she pulled into Target.

“Remember this place?” she asked.

I nodded. “How could I forget?”

“You’re going to fuck me with the top down.”

I laughed. “We’ll get arrested.”

“Not if you’re careful.”

“And quick,” I said.

She pulled in behind the store, almost in the same spot I had parked in previously. Out of the way of traffic, but still in clear view for the perverts and rubberneckers to see, she parked.

“I’m going to fuck you senseless,” she said.

“Hey, that’s my line.”

There had been so many changes in my life in the last few months, none of which I regretted. Not one of them was easy to believe, but they were easy for me to accept. I would never second guess Jess’ existence in my life – she was perfect for me, and the only answer to resolving my otherwise dismal love life. 

“Take off your pants,” she demanded.

“Such a romantic.”

I glanced over each shoulder and upon seeing no one, unbuckled my belt. She lasted all of fifteen seconds before deciding to help me pull them down. As soon as they were at my thighs, she removed her jean shorts and tossed them in the back seat. Panties followed.

She stroked my cock a few times, but I was well beyond excited as it was. Standing at complete attention, my cock was pointing at the sky. Sitting in the driver’s seat, she spread her legs a little, stuck her finger in her pussy, and grinned.

“Soaked,” she said. “Always wet for you.”

“Good.”

She climbed over the console and straddled me with her back against my chest. As I felt her wetness touch the tip of my dick, I moaned in anticipation. She exhaled sharply as her tight warmth encompassed the tip. I watched as she slowly lowered herself down the entire length, resting her ass against my thighs once I was completely inside of her.

“Ready?” she asked.

I laughed at her sense of humor. “I love you.”

She slapped her hands against the dash and began to work her hips back and forth with precision. I watched in amazement as my cock disappeared into her pussy only to be withdrawn with another gyration of her beautiful ass.

I reached around her and squeezed her breasts, using them as leverage to guide her up and down.

The warm sun, the passing cars, and the thought of being back at the Target where we had sex after I lost the diamond – but didn’t yet trust her enough to tell her what happened – proved to be too much.

“I’m not going to make it,” I admitted.

She glanced over her shoulder. “Are you gonna cum?”

“Yeah…” I groaned.

She stuck her hand between her legs and began to rub her clit.

I felt my balls tighten.

“Wait for me,” she begged.

I bit against my lower lip and did my best to think of anything that would allow me to last a few more seconds. She continued the same pace, banging her ass down on my thighs, taking my cock into her completely with each thrust.

Watching myself disappear into her tight pussy was more than I could take. My cock began to swell.

“Fuck yes,” she wailed.

Her ass continued to rise and fall, but her pace slowed slightly. I felt her contract. I squeezed her boobs as I felt myself burst inside of her, pumping her full of my love.

“I fucking love you,” I breathed into her ear.

She thrust her hips three more times, barking out a word with each thrust.

“I…”

“Love…”

“You…”

She sat still for some time, absorbing all of what had happened. A good few minutes after we finished, she sighed and looked over her shoulder. “I love my car.”

I glanced around. Cars passed on either side of us, but where we were parked wasn’t a through traffic way. “I’m glad. I hoped you would.”

“I’m gonna get off now,” she said.

I grinned. “I’m ready.”

She climbed off of me, and cum flopped out of her and all over my jeans.

“Don’t get that shit on my car,” she howled.

I looked down at the puddle of cum. “What do you want me to do?”

She shrugged as she pulled her shorts on. “Rub it into your jeans.”

Reluctantly, I followed her instructions. After we were both dressed, I turned to face her.

“So, I told you the car was part of it. Now that we’ve got time to talk, I have a few questions.”

“Okay,” she said.

“Well, I don’t do cheesy shit, and I’m not much of a romantic, but I’ll do my best,” I said.

She grinned. “I’m listening.”

“You know I love you. More than anyone, more than anything, right?”

She nodded. “I do.”

“Jess, my life wasn’t a disaster, and I’m not going to tell you it was. I wasn’t lost. I didn’t need saved. Neither did you. I don’t know if you were, but I wasn’t looking when I found you. Life just kind of happened. Along with it came love. I wasn’t prepared, but I guess I was ready, because it all worked out. Now? Now that I’ve had you in my life? I can’t imagine anything but keeping you. Forever.”

I reached into my pocket and removed the ring.

I held it up for her to see. Completely custom made with 4 carats of side stones and
the
10 carat center stone, the ring was beyond breathtaking. I shifted my eyes from the ring to Jess.

Her mouth was covered with her hand and her eyes were glued to the ring.

I cleared my throat. “Will you be my partner? My partner in life, my partner in love, and my partner in crime.”

In my former life, I would have never considered keeping the diamond. The $3,500,000 in proceeds from the ring would allow me to continue my life of robbing from the assholes on the earth and providing to those in need.

But if she would agree to be my partner, I knew deep down inside we could make the money back without worry.

Jess was an amazing woman, and an amazing criminal mastermind. I couldn’t imagine a life without her, and I couldn’t fathom continuing my life of crime if the only person on earth I was able to trust wasn’t in it with me.

She wiped a tear from her cheek and nodded. “I will.”

I slipped the ring on her finger and kissed her passionately.

As our mouths parted, I felt I should say something, but as much as I wanted to, I was so deeply in love with her, I was speechless.

We sat silently and stared into each other’s eyes.

We didn’t have to speak, our love for each other said it all.

A wise woman once said
love is when your heart has feelings for a person that your mind is incapable of putting into words.

And she was right.
