some guys would have played with mason only to get on her good side .
but pesh did n't have an agenda when it came to her , unless it was to have her embrace the idea of a relationship with him .
when the last ticket was spent , she rose off her chair .
`` okay , time to go . ''
mason 's face scrunched up , and he looked like at any minute he might throw a tantrum to stay .
but pesh took his hand .
`` we 'll come back another time . ''
his reply seemed to pacify mason , and he happily slung his and pesh 's arm back and forth as they walked to the car .
when they got buckled up , megan turned back to mason .
`` what do you say to pesh for bringing you ? ''
`` tank you , esh , '' mason said .
his words sent a broad grin stretching across pesh 's face .
`` you 're welcome , buddy .
i had a good time . ''
when he glanced over at megan , she gave him a genuine smile .
`` i had a good time , too . ''
taking one of his hands off the steering wheel , he reached over to take her hand in his .
while the gesture was a little too lovey-dovey for her liking , she did n't argue with him .
instead , she just enjoyed his touch .
once they had deposited a sleepy mason back home at megan 's , they abandoned her suv and gotten into pesh 's jaguar .
`` so where exactly are we going ? ''
megan asked , as she buckled her seat belt .
`` it 's a surprise . ''
`` seriously ?
you 're still playing coy about it ? ''
`` for just a little while longer . ''
she shifted in her seat where she could look at him better .
`` can i try to guess ? ''
`` i suppose .
i 'm not sure i 'd tell you even if you guess , '' he teased .
`` are we going to atlanta ? ''
he cut his gaze from the road over to her .
`` have patience . ''
crossing her arms over her chest , she huffed , `` i do n't have patience for games . ''
`` okay , i 'll give you a little hint .
actually , it 's more of a question than it is a hint . ''
`` yeah ? ''
`` do you have a fear of heights ? ''
she snorted .
`` no , i do n't .
why ? ''
he gave her a sly grin .
`` i told you .
it 's a hint . ''
`` i went skydiving when i turned twenty-one , so i 'm totally fine with heights .
of course , i seriously doubt we 're going sky diving in these clothes . ''
`` no , we 're not . ''
she wrinkled her nose .
`` please tell me it 's not box seats at the opera or something like that . ''
his face fell .
`` you do n't like the opera ? ''
`` never been and never want to . ''
pesh appeared almost personally insulted .
`` i 'm going to have to change your mind on that one . ''
`` why am i not surprised you like opera ? ''
`` do n't knock it until you 've tried it . ''
`` a bunch of screeching men and women singing in a language i do n't understand ?
not my idea of a good time . ''
`` but there is such love and passion in their delivery , '' he argued .
`` um , i 'm just going to have to agree to disagree with you . ''
`` for now at least , '' he said , with a wink .
when the car started slowing down , megan peered out the windshield before turning to pesh .
`` we 're at mccollum ? ''
`` yes . ''
`` you 're taking me flying ? ''
he smiled .
`` yes , i am . ''
even though she had known he had a plane from how he 'd helped get aidan to noah 's delivery , she could n't believe their date included something as unique as flying .
`` so let me get this straight .
i 'm dressed like this , '' she did a little hand motion over her dress , `` to go flying ? ''
an amused look twinkled in his dark eyes .
`` you have absolutely no patience , do you ? ''
`` no , i do n't . ''
as he put the car in park outside the hanger , he turned to her .
`` by your lack of being able to withhold gratification , i 'm assuming you 've never partaken in any tantric sex ? ''
she could n't stop her mouth from dropping to her chest .
`` w-what ? ''
she stammered .
turning in his seat , he pinned her with a hard stare .
`` have i managed to shock you again ? ''
unable to speak , she merely bobbed her head .
pesh only chuckled at her response .
`` come on .
let 's get going . ''
still in shock , she remained rooted to her seat .
when he came around to open her door , she peered up at him .
`` tantric sex ?
like sting , trudie styler , and tantric sex ? ''
`` yes , i suppose so , '' he replied , as he offered her his hand .
ordinarily , she would n't have taken it , but at the declaration that pesh was actually into something outside the sexual norms , she was too floored to argue with him .
`` i did n't think you 'd like anything ... kinky . ''
pesh 's dark eyes widened .
`` tantric is n't kinky .
it 's about connecting with your lover on a more intimate level .
it 's about breathing them in and truly being one . ''
`` so it 's not about marathon sex that lasts for days ? ''
he chuckled .
`` you 've gotten the more salacious side confused with what it actually is . ''
megan pursed her lips at him as her mind whirled with the possibilities .
after all , if tantric sex with pesh was anywhere as good as his efforts in going down on her , she was one very lucky lady .
