He rode like the bike was glued to him, and the only way to free himself from it was to go faster, to push harder. I was certain as I put my arms around his leather jacket and felt the hard ripples under his clothes he trained just as hard. He was honorable, unlike me, a liar with no honorable reason. He chose lies to make his family happy and pretend he was like them. I lied because I was selfish.
We take the 2nd left and two rights before we are on the back road. Locking my arms tighter around him, he bends as we take the sharp turn and straightens just in time as we hit the bridge, passing the river.
The mountains in this region were a thing of beauty. I have always loved Liston Hills. I spent most of my younger years in different parts of Texas. When I got older, I stayed with my mom in Miami.
My mother was fantastic, in every way I could describe her.
She never complained, she was always smiling and full of life. Every holiday she’d bring me to Liston Hills, and we’d spend Christmas morning riding up these mountains. She loved her bikes, and fast cars.
She loved these mountains too.

It’s later, or later than it already was by the time we make it to the top. I remove my helmet as Kylie grabs the blankets from her saddle.
“You’re a natural,” Kevin compliments as a small grin touches his face like a shadow. I want to believe it is natural, but something tells me I am missing something.
The little I knew about Kevin Stone, he didn’t smile unless it was for a reason, and I was certain the reason did not revolve around praising someone. But, as I inhale the air, I choose to give him a little benefit of the doubt. People change all the time.
