"How about you get on my back? So in a way you're not being carried - you're riding me." I paused and then winked. Kat stared. "What?" I laughed, and her eyes immediately narrowed. "You should see yourself right now. Like a kitten - that's what I keep telling you. Your hackles are raised." Her eyes rolled as she shuffled behind me. "You should conserve your energy and stop talking." "Ouch." "You'll get over it." She placed her hands on my shoulders. "Besides, you could be knocked down a peg or two." ... "Baby, I'm so far up the ladder there aren't any pegs under me to be knocked down." "Wow", she said. "That's a new one." "You loved it." .. "Hold on, Kitten. I'm going to start to glow just a little, and we're going to go fast." "I like when you glow. It's like having my own personal flashlight." I grinned. "Glad I can be of assistance." She patted my chest. "Giddy up."
