<div align="center">Kyle</div><br/>After Giselle’s sudden change in mood, Kyle simply sits on the bike without starting the engine. Leaning forward so he can twist and look back at his passenger he says, “I’m sorry Giselle, I didn’t know about your past, so I certainly could not have known that my teasing would hurt you. I was simply trying to have a little fun. Please accept my heartfelt apology. If I had known it would have hurt you I would not have said those things. Now that I do know I can assure you it won’t happen again.” He smiles at her and let’s just some of that playfulness show again, “I’ll just have to find something else to tease you about, which you too can have fun with.”<br/><br/>Straightening out and setting back up, Kyle turns the key on the Harley and reaches for the ignition switch. With his thumb on the switch he stops, “I wasn’t trying to tease you when I was talking about my parents. I was actually giving you an advance warning about what to expect from them. With the knowledge I now have about you I think it is especially important that you understand that. My parents have become almost desperate for me to marry and have children. I think they’re afraid I’m going to get killed while performing my duties as a soldier before I can continue the family line. I am their only child after all. I’m sorry, but I think they want me to have children so badly they don’t care if I even get married first. The last time I was home they actually arranged for a woman close to my age to be staying with them. They went out of their way to make sure we had plenty of time alone. Hell about the only thing they didn’t do was come right out and say, ‘Why don’t you two go have sex?’ or ‘Go make us a grandbaby.’”<br/><br/>Looking back over his shoulder Kyle asks, “Do you still want to come home with me?”
