Alex, of all people, seemed not to have lost his radar for arousal. Bryan nearly jumped out of his skin when Alex reached across the seat to squeeze his thigh.
"Oh, boy," he said, chuckling. "That guilty start tells me you're not fantasizing about me."
"Shit," said Bryan, which made Alex laugh harder.

"Oh, hell," Bryan said. "I know I'm probably the last person who should be suggesting this, but do you think Zoe and Magnus would ever want to…"
"Want to what?" Alex asked.

"Ignore me," he said aloud. "Just a crazy idea."
"Ohh," said Alex, maybe calling on his new gifts. "That kind of crazy idea."
Bryan blushed harder, but Alex only looked back at the highway and grinned.
"You never know what might happen," he said, his hands sliding caressingly on the wheel. "Fairies and their partners do love adventuring."
