The drive was fairly pleasant, especially as they wound their way away from the city and into the more wooded areas of upstate. He occasionally wished that he had his mp3 player, but he didn’t know if Elay cared for Ryker’s type of music and it was a fairly nice chance to talk, anyways. “The Question Game” was still going, as well, so that would have just been rude to crank up some music in the middle of it.
Elay’s last question, whether or not there was a current lover in Ryker’s life, brought forth a deep chuckle and a shake of his head. “No, there’s not. I’d like to be able to blame all of my work for not giving me time to pursue anything, but honestly I just haven’t been interested in it until quite recently. I was…a bit distracted, you could say.” He glanced over at Elay, shooting him a small smile before turning his gaze back to the road. Given the car that he was in and his propensity for high speed maneuvering, he was driving much faster than a mortal would consider to be safe, or even sane, but he had little trouble handling the modded car on the tight curves, even throwing in a drift or two.
“And what of yourself? Is there amor in Mr. Luthern’s life yet?” he asked. He wasn’t exactly fishing, of course. But looking for hints never hurt too badly, right?
