Sleigh Ride

Rifiuto: Non Miriena

Summary: "I've never been on a sleigh ride in winter." Zane stared at her, surprised. "You're kidding?" She shook her head. "Well, then we have to fix that, won't we?" Fourth in Happy Holidays.

The lights of Boston twinkled before them, and he pulled her closer. They passed by the park, and Jo stopped at the sight of the beautiful champagne-colored horses hooked to the white sleigh. "I've... never been on a sleigh ride in winter." She didn't look back, instead, went to the horses and slowly reached out.

"You're kidding?" Zane asked, staring at her, surprised. She shook her head.

"No. I've ridden horses, but never... never ridden in a sleigh pulled by one at Christmas. Then again, there aren't many horses in Jersey." Jo replied, turning to glance at Zane. He raised his eyebrows.

"Well, then we have to fix that, won't we?" He asked, going to the driver. She watched him, confused. He talked with the older man for a moment, before coming back to Jo and taking her arm.

"What are we doing?" She asked, as he led her to the sleigh. Once they were settled, Zane pulled her close, saying,

"We... are going to go on a sleigh ride." She turned to him.

"What?"

"You heard me." She broke into a grin.

"You... you..." She kissed him as the sleigh took off. "Thank you."
