"Mikey's been talking about it all week. Told Freddy at daycare today his dad was taking him on a motorcycle," Erin told him, looking to see his expression as she secured the helmet on Mikey.

"he called me his dad?" he asked her, sounding a bit shocked. Tristan walked up to her and then set her red helmet down on her head.
"you're real excited huh?" he asked Mikey.

Mikey nodded and rushed outside to touch the motorcycle.
Erin looked at Tristan, clearing her throat. "you sure it's safe?"

Mikey clapped his hands, beginning to crawl into the sidecar.
Erin shrugged, smiling at Tristan. "Okay! I trust you." and she actually did.

"I promise I'll be good," he winked at her and then climbed onto the bike.

That was when Erin sent a prayer up above, strapped Mikey in, and then climbed onto the bike behind tristan, holding tight.

"ready?" Tristan called out and then revved up the bike. Soon they were out on the open road heading out of the city.

It was definitely something Erin always wanted to do. She was terrified something awful would happen, and a part of her wished Mikey wasnt even there.
But he was and that was exactly why he needed a real family. People who wanted him everyday and all day, like Tristan.
Mikey was laughing and hanging on, absolutely loving it.

When the had to stop at a light, Tristan glanced over his shoulder at Erin, smiling. "someone has a weakness for motorcycles."

He laughed and then the light turned green and he sped them off to their destination.

Erin held on tight. Damn him for being right. She sighed happily as they sped along.
