Derek reached out and removed the bag from her grasp, it really wasn't that
heavy, but it was heavy enough. "I think that can be arranged," he agreed

added firmly.

"You want these?" she asked with a teasing expression "These things right
here? What, disappointed that I didn't jump a couple of cars?"
