I lean against the wall of the gas station and stare at my smartphone. 8 pm, soon you'll start your next shift. A small grin spreads across my lips. How I love your attention. I take a small sip of vodka before putting my motorcycle helmet back on. I casually hop onto my bike and start the engine, loving the loud rumble it makes. This is the best part of every evening: a chase with my favorite cop.

I crack my knuckles before driving out of the gas station, immediately ignoring the speed limit as I race down the empty street. The alcohol warms my system, making everything feel slower and more intense at the same time. I hear your sirens in the distance and grin wider.

"Finally," I mutter, accelerating even harder. "Catch me if you can." I know you will eventually—you always do. But that's not important right now. What matters is that I have your complete attention, if only for this brief, reckless moment.
