[All that work getting the bike back up and onto the road is surprisingly exhausting. She's glad when they get situated and head out, so she can just relax up against him and catch her breath and rest her sore arms. The radio playing is the only sound that needs to be heard over the road, the silence between them pleasant except for idle chatter here and there.
It doesn't really take them too long to pull off the highway once they reach Tucson, with a kitschy 50's diner set up right on the access road. She points it out and he pulls into the parking lot, and she's so eager to eat and get back on the road that she practically topples over the side of the bike and onto the pavement.
She's naturally graceful enough that she somehow lands on her feet, and grabs hold of his hand to pull him off and into her arms. She kisses him once, twice, and then a couple more times for good measure. With her hands against the back of his head, she guides him to press his forehead against hers and she just enjoys standing there basking in his presence for a couple of seconds. If she's this eager and excited, she can't imagine how he must feel today. They're finally in the home stretch.]

[That's important. She knows there's a long stretch of road between here and home, but there's no way she's meeting his friends and family looking like a mess. Not going to happen.]
