This past Christmas, Simpson, 23, surprise-gifted Wentz, 28, with the present of his dreams: a 2008 Triumph Bonneville motorcycle. But she's not getting on it until he masters the bike.
"When we went to get it, I bought my helmet and I was like, 'You should probably buy a helmet, so we can ride together,' " Wentz, hosting the Wayne Hadly Collection preview at Scout in Los Angeles, tells PEOPLE.
"She was like, 'I'm not going to buy a helmet, I'm not going to ride with you, until you actually know what you are doing!' "
Turns out, Simpson may know best. "I was riding yesterday," Wentz said with a chuckle. "I didn't realize how hard a motorcycle was to ride. I'd only seen it on TV, and in movies, and I was like, "I want to ride one!", but they're f------- hard to ride!
Meanwhile, what his his Christmas present to her?
"I got a tattoo," said the bassist, proudly showing off the ink on his left arm. "It's the lyrics of a song ... 'Honey Is For The Bees, Silly Bear. It's this lullaby that I wrote for her. And I got her jewelry."
He added, "But I didn't beat her motorcycle present."
Male Bonding
At another event over the weekend – the opening of the Madden brothers' DCMA Collective store in Los Angeles – Wentz talked about what it's like going on double-dates with Ashlee's sister Jessica and her boyfriend, football star Tony Romo. Turns out, the guys bond over music."Usually we talk about eighties rock," said Wentz, who is collaborating on a t-shirt design with DCMA. "That's our bonding experience. We agree on 'November Rain.'"
So, What's the agreement? Said Wentz: "That it's awesome!"
