The parking lot, then around town, Thursday afternoon

[fantastic_torch]

Johnny's bike was idling; the chrome was polished, the tank full. Now all he needed was Hinata.

He trusted that she'd show, though he was a bit concerned she might have second thoughts. She didn't call him to tell him nevermind, so he knew she'd be here. He had her a helmet and hoped she'd dressed the part.

This wasn't a date. Not at all. He was like what, a big brother to her or something. Savannah totally wouldn't care. Right?

Right.

Straddling his motorcycle, he rested a hand on his thigh, looking out for the little girl that he was going to take for a ride.

[For the one mentioned, please.]

Yes, he was really sure and he would let her know, by way of movement, that it was absolutely safe. She was little enough that he could sit easily behind her and still have full and complete control of the motorcycle.

He got on behind her, settled himself easily with his helmet on, and placed his arms around her so he could hold on to the handlebars. He started up the bike and told her, "Now, place your hands just above mine..."

She wasn't sure what to think of the fact that here, with this position, what did that look like...? She didn't know it, but it felt safe and she felt better.

She could do this. Hinata shook her head, trying to clear it of useless thoughts, before following his instructions.

"J-Just like that?"

Johnny clearly wasn't thinking about what it looked like. It was a motorcycle and they were riding. Simple as that.

Of course if others took note of this, and the position, well, who's to say what they might think?

"Just like that, sweetheart." And he started forward, slowly, just as before.

Hinata couldn't help but think of what others would think, it was what she did, and she hoped no one would mind. It wasn't anything other than a ride.

She watched silently as they moved, her hands over his, getting a better idea of how it was to drive it.

"It's a l-lot more i-imposing, up f-front."
