Owen’s eyes narrowed in mock suspicion at her claim that she was of ‘average height.’ He looked away from her and out the window, “I suppose.” He teased as the car went into motion.
He was left enjoying the chauffeuring by an attractive and chatty woman. He didn't mind her prattling to the contrary he appreciated it very much. The longer she was content to speak to him and let him silently listen the more an invisible weight lifted off his chest. No need to force conversation. No need to be anything. He relaxed back into the leather seat and made the appropriate noises indicating he was following her narrative. Every now and again Owen glanced at the odometer noting Julianna’s insistence at driving the speed limit. She didn’t go more than five miles per hour over the marked limits. He found it charming and the curl of his lips suggested that was the case. He didn’t tease her about it or goad her into testing the power of his car, but was content to listen to his tour guide and enjoy her cruising pace.
“You might have a knack for trivia, yet.” He complimented her genuinely impressed with the depth of her American history knowledge.
When they arrived to the private parking garage at the Lindson Tower, Owen exited the car bringing his suit jacket with him. He laughed out loud when she told his car she would miss it. The sound of his laugh echoed in the parking garage and he bent down to peer at her through the open passenger door. “She will miss you too.”
Whether she knew it or not he was joking at her expense at the fact that the car might have enjoyed the easy way she drove as compared to his rough usage of the machine.
“Yes, I can operate the elevator.” He hooked the collar of his jacket on his index and swung it over his shoulder, letting it dangle down his back. “But! I can’t just leave you here in the parking garage. How are you getting home?” Without waiting for her answer, he had already rounded the car to meet her. His arm, irrespective of any orders from his brain, moved to place his free hand on her back between the shoulder blades. The drinks in his blood encouraged him to react physically towards her in a way that he might not have in a sober mind set.
“Come up for a night cap and allow me to call you a cab.” He offered but the gentle push of his hand seemed to insist that she agree to his terms.
When the elevator door opened, he allowed her to enter first, the tips of his fingers trailed down her spine to the small of her back as she stepped away from him. He followed behind her, pressed the button for the top most floor, and entered a security code to authorize the elevator to travel to the floor owned solely by him.
“When did you learn to drive stick?” He asked to make conversation as the elevator soared higher. Knowing how long the ride was he leaned against the back wall of the elevator as if to make himself comfortable. Right on schedule around the twentieth floor Owen reflexively swallowed and opened his jaw to relieve the impounding pressure in his inner ear as they traveled upwards. Side effect of living fifty floors in the air.
