After a good showering, getting ready and smelling good. He takes his CVO, and rides back to her hotel.
She was in the front, already waiting, dressed in tight dark blue jeans, wearing high heels boots, a white shirt with some cuts to show a black top under it, and a black cropped leather jacket. Her sight took his air away.
He's wearing simple dark blue jeans, a long sleeve light gray shirt with black details. The sleeves pulled up to his elbows. It's the most biker style he has.
She hides a wide open mouth behind her hands, watching the CVO stopping in front of her. He removes his helmet, showing her a playful smile.
"So?" He asks.
"Sh**! It's huge! I'm a child in front of it." Aika says, amazed and eyeing the bike entirely. It's something so expensive, she fears even touching it. He gave her a helmet.
"Come! Do you have any place in mind?" He asks.
"I actually do. Route 66 Bar, at 27th Street. Not far from here. What do you think?"
"Let's go! Do you know how to get there?" He asks, and she nods as an answer." Then show me the way." He says, putting back his helmet.
She puts on her helmet and climbs behind him on a wide seat. She doesn't even need to hold him with how large the seat is. It's the first time he has a woman on his bike, he liked to see Aika enjoying the ride through the rearview mirror.
He stops the bike in front of a retro bar that has a highway bar style. There are other bikes on the front, when they get inside, Odir sees like an old bar indeed, but only in the looks, of course, it's a style that is welcoming.
A guy behind the large counter, wearing a band t"shirt, with shaved head and long gray beard, looks at them. He looks like an angry biker at first look.
"Look who gave us the honor to show up!" The man speaks happily with a wide smile, showing a very different thing everyone would expect.
At least everyone that doesn't know him. He walks around the counter, showing his total biker style with old jeans with a chain on the side between his belt and pocket.
He hugs Aika taking her off the ground, he kisses her head in a very intimate way. Odir now is sure that they know each other for a long time, getting, actually, jealous.
"Hey, Bo! How are you doing?" She asks with a big smile too.
"Better with you here! A nice cold quarter for ya! On the house!" He answers excitedly. She points to Odir.
"This is Odir."
"Hey. People call me Bones. Aika calls me Bo. Nice bike you have!" Bones speaks, shaking hands with Odir.
"Thanks. Cozy place you have, Bones." Odir says, hiding very well he's still jealous.
"Thanks! Feel at home."
Bones takes them to a table. The seats are like benches and it's separated from other tables by a low wall with some drinks, bottles and other kinds of bike decorations on it.
"Mozzarella sticks and what else?" Bones asks.
"Surprise me, Bo, but no rush. The sticks are too great to eat fast." She answers while taking off her jacket before sitting.
"Nice! What about you, boy? Sorry, but I pay for drinks only for pretty girls." Bones asks Odir, who is sitting in front of Aika. Odir chuckles, still hiding he's now super jealous.
"Same as her. Thanks." Odir tells. Bones nods, then he passes his thumb on Aika's arm, on a tattoo of a wolf's face.
"It healed pretty well. It's awesome. Will you come tomorrow for the new one?" Bones asks Aika.
"Sure." She answers with a smile. Odir noticed she's always smiling to Bones.
"Nice! I'll shave my ass for my new one." He tells her in a lower voice. She laughs, pushing him away.
"Hell no! Disgusting! Where are our beers, dammit?" She says, and he laughs walking away." Sorry about that." She apologizes to Odir.
"No problem. You two look like old friends…" Odir asks more than curious.
"Yeah. 4 years. We met on the road going to an event of bikers. Now, every time we meet, we tattoo each other. He knows Aidan too." She says.
"Aidan, your brother?" He asks.
"Yeah. Bo looks like a bad biker, but his heart is huge. He's on my benefit list since he always comes and goes from bikers events. He owns this club here." She explains.
"Oh… And you belong to this club too?"
"Kind of. Because I don't live here, but I help with what I can. It's a payback. He is like a dad/uncle to Aidan too, worrying about us and other things." She softly says.
"I see… So, your father…?"
"Have no idea where he is. He left when mom discovered she was pregnant with Aidan. Even living distant, Bo is more a father to Aidan." She answers.
He noticed the bitter voice of hers when talking about her father. He can't blame her.
"How bad… Shit. I'm sorry." He says softly. Now he admires her even more.
"Don't worry. Better this way if it was to live with a man like him, right?" She says. Bones comes with two big mugs of beers. Odir smiles impressively at the big mug.
Aika and Odir toast, take a sip while he's looking at her, and she avoids eye contact by looking at her beer.
"Huum! Delicious! I was missing this." She speaks with a big smile after a long sip of beer.
"It's good, indeed." He affirms, nodding, then taking another good sip.
"Bo brews the beers they sell here, and on events."
"Really? How great is that? That's why it is so different and tasty." Odir says impressed.
"Glad you like it. We sell it in bottles too." Bones speaks, then kisses Aika's head." Needing anything, just sign." He tells, and goes back to work.
Aika takes a good sip of beer again.
"So… The more I know you, the more I impress myself. You even tattoo. Very unique behind an airport agent. No! An airport supervisor." Odir tells. She shrugs shoulders, smiling.
"It's good being different."
"It is." He says, remembering that even being an elf, he looks like an average rich guy in front of her." How about tattooing me? I'm an empty canvas."
"Really? Are you sure?" She asks.
"Yes! I was always curious to do it, but I didn't know what art or where." He tells, imagining he would love to have a tattoo made by her, even not knowing what kind of art she does.
"Are you drunk already?" She asks, laughing.
"No! I'm serious." He says, laughing too.
Her smile and laughter are contagious.
"You never saw my works."
"Show me, then." He says. She takes her phone, then shows him a different Instram account with arts and tattoos only. He checks the photos and videos, impressed, amazed." You did all this?" He asks.
"It's a hobby."
"Hey, this logo is from this bar. You did Bones' bar' logo?" He asks, looking at the menu in front of them, on the table.
"All the things, actually. Logo, labels, cards, front sign, menu. It was awful before. I made the club's things too." She answers, and takes another sip of beer, showing another work on her Instram to him.
"Wow… You're good! Now I want your tattoo even more. I liked this airplane here." He says looking at a black and white tattoo on someone's rib.
"This one is on me, but I designed it."
He looks at the picture again, looking at her skin, body, and curves of her waist. He wishes to see that for real. He never desired someone so much. Something is different…
"Yeah. An airplane would suit you well. Which one is your favorite?" She asks him, waking him from his daydream.
"Hum… I like little ones. Hard to pick up one. I love piloting my Cessna Citation X." He tells, and brings his phone to show her a photo of his jet.
"It's a beauty. Would you tattoo it?" She asks.
Yes! It's decided then." He answers with a big smile to her.
"Think well until I'm done with the drawing, because once you get a tattoo, there's no going back. You might never stop getting new ones." She chuckles.
"Fine for me." He says taking a sip of beer to wet his dry throat.
They keep knowing each other, Aika noticed Odir doesn't know much about simple things the world could give. Probably because he's only around superficial people all the time.
People treat him as a king all the time. They ask for more beer and appetizers to go upstairs and play snooker together.
Some of the bikers greet Aika, treating her as a family member. They have fun playing together, talking about life.
They have one more big mug, and have dinner. Odir is happy he didn't choose the place, seeing Aika there he knows she wouldn't be as comfortable.
Going back to the bike made them realize it's time to choose… Aika wants to think on the right thing to do, that is not going further. But after such a great time, knowing him more, she feels she wants to do what she desires. It will be only a night… Does she want something like that?
