    ~*~*~*~*~
     
    Reina watched as Jed walked away. Her hand reached to touch the spot he had kissed. It was still tingling from the warmth of his mouth. Yet she was sad because he said it wouldn't happen again. “No Reina, we are happy it won't happen again.” Once again her eyes sought him out. Deep down, she knew the real Jed. He was a nice guy or had been once.
     
    When Reina walked back to where Rose was. It looked like she was ready to burst. "I'm assuming that is your hand print on his face?” When Reina nodded her laughter exploded. "What the hell did he do? Pinch your ass?"
     
    Reina shook her head. "I think he was going to kiss me."
     
    Rose’s jaw dropped. “Wait, you think? He didn’t even try and you smacked him?"

"He was getting really close to me. What else would he have done if not kiss me?” Damn, had she wanted it and just thought he did to? Ugh, her head was hurting now and everything was just too much.
     
    "Damn girl, you're harsh. You’re even worse than me for once." Rose seemed very happy for a change.
     
    Jed must have finished working on his bike because he went to say goodbye to her Uncle Diego and then turned to tip an imaginary hat to them. "Bye ladies." The man just left her feeling cold and alone inside. Reina damned that man for coming back to mess with her sanity. Yet she couldn’t help but admire his firm ass as he walked to open the garage door.
     
    He moved so fluidly and was so confident with himself. “Damn, maybe I should have let him kiss me. I sure as hell wanted him to. No, if he really wants me, he’ll enjoy the chase.” Reina stopped muttering to herself and turned back to finish her brakes. She needed to finish fast, there was a pile of invoices that needed her attention back at the shop. When Reina was done, she thanked Rose and told her to come home early.

When she walked in to say goodnight to her Uncle. Reina braced herself for a lecture, yet none came. "Sometimes things are not what they may seem. I too was fooled. My advice missy, is that you should give him an opportunity." 
     
    All the way to her shop, she wondered why her uncle would say what he did. There would be time to worry later. Now she had to mentally figure out where to display the new shipment of cushioned Harley seats her Uncle Diego had delivered to the shop yesterday.
     
    ~*~*~**~*~*~*~
     
    Back at casa Diaz. Michelle was in the kitchen doing a happy dance. She knew telling Jed to stay away would send him running after Reina. They had such a special bond when they were children. He never knew she always looked out the window when he would go sit under the tree alone. It hurt her to see him there so sad. When Reina started meeting him there she was thrilled.
     
    Yes, she was perfect for him. “Now to get them to see it too. That might be a little harder to do.” A smile spread as she figure maybe it wouldn’t be hard. He seemed to be smitten with her and she has always and will always love him.

That was the only reason why Reina couldn't commit to that guy she dated, or any guy. Yes, she was the perfect girl for Jed. She will knock him down to size. Although the smack was a little too much in her opinion. Though she did laugh when Diego called and described what happened.
     
    Michelle was going to have to figure out another chance meeting between them. Once they’re on their way to falling in love. She needed to pick out her next victim. Which boy would be next, once Jed was on the right path with Reina? For now, she would concentrate on making lunch. The boys would all be out late, but Diego always made it home early. Today she had planned a special appetizer for him. A wicked smile made an appearance while she thought of what awaited Diego Diaz.
     
    Unfortunately, the door opened and in walked Jed. “Damn, she just remembered one of the perks that came with the boys’ not living home anymore.” She smiled at her son and thought about how much she missed her
