My Sexy Saturday: Their Sexy Talk

This week’s theme is Their Sexy Talk and it’s all about how lovers talk to each other. We know you’ve noticed it. Whenever you get into a room of people, where there are other couples, notice how they talk to each other. Sometimes you can tell when there’s tension, other times you wonder just what makes them so happy and there are others still when their happiness is practically contagious.

There's one couple perfect for this challenge. Tom and Pelton from "Five Time Loser" collected in Into Dark Waters.



Blurb:
Tom is a truck driver with a woman and an apartment he rarely ever sees. One night a voice comes over the CB -- the Midnight Flyer, and before long he and Tom are flirting and exchanging pictures. What Tom doesn't know is that the Midnight Flyer, Pelton, is practicing the dark arts, trying to get rid of all the things that keep him and Tom apart.

The girlfriend, the apartment, the trailer on his truck, his job, one by one they all disappear until Tom is a five-time loser. Which is when the Midnight Flyer takes him in. There are more surprises for Tom, though. There's more to Pelton than meets the eye, and Tom might just end up a winner in the end.

Your Seven Sexy Paragraphs:

Tom turned down Ozzy and the boys and picked up the mike at that. “Hello, Teddy Bear. Need a ride? What exit do I take to get to Jackson Street, 229?” he asked, quoting the song.

The voice laughed at the reference, impossibly sexy. “This is the Midnight Flyer. I'm just stuck at home sick, and hoped somebody would want to talk at this obscene hour.”

“You got the Rainbow Rider. If you want to be obscene, come on back.”

The Flyer laughed. “Hi Rainbow. What's the weather?”

“All clear all night. Lotsa stars, a big fat moon and not a bear in sight.”

“Uh, Rainbow?” came another voice, sounding distant and crackly, “And all you westbounders on 70. You got a picture-taker 'bout two miles this side of the Missouri line. Comb your hair and smile pretty now.”

“Thank you, driver,” Rainbow said. “Now, Midnight, does your daddy know you're up this late and playing with his CB?”
