Ride [62]
"Are you sure you will be okay?" Norman asked as we sat in the driveway.
"Yeah, you showed me everything, or most of what I should know, I will be fine."
"If you get hurt."
"Norman I have wanted to ride a motorcycle since I was a kid. My dad and I talked about buying bikes and riding around a trash hick town. Even though we had snow 7 months out of the year, we still talked about this, I need to do this, I a, excited to do this." I smiled
"Okay." He smiled
"Where are we going?"
"Just a few easy back roads, when you get better, more experienced then maybe I will get you on an episode of Ride with me."
"Really?"
"Maybe, maybe we will grab Steve too or Mr. Morgan."
"Mr. Morgan?" I laughed
"I lost a bet, have to call him that for the next 6 weeks, might as well start now."
"I love you."
"At least someone does," He kissed my forehead then walked over to his bike. He started it and looked back at me.
I gave him a thumbs up, he shook his head then began to drive down the street.
Riding with Norman had been a dream of mine, just riding general was a dream of mine. My dad and I made plans, things we properly would never do, but we made a lot of plans.
When he got sick, he told me to do the plans. We made them be funny, but I should do them because sitting on your deathbed meant that you thought about all the things you never did. I promised him, and 2 minutes later he had died.
Riding, jumping off a plane, seeing as many third world countries. Falling in love, and doing everything I possibly can, living my dream and not settling for anything less.
Norman kept looking behind to see if I was still there. HIs helmet covered his face, but I could feel his smile.
Riding was more than I imagined, I felt like I was flying, the wind running through my hair, I felt so free and badass. I felt as if my dad was riding with us. I couldn't see his face, but I could feel his smile.
I am back! Sorry this is a short chapter, I had someone request am imagine so I might post that through the week as an additional Chapter.
Again I wanted to thank all of you for being so supportive her the last few weeks. It means a lot, thank you for your messages as well they were sweet <3
