Chapter 8
Waking up the next morning, I am still in Happy's arms and I feel him lightly kiss my shoulder. "Morning Princess." he says. I turn in his arms and kiss him softly and say "Morning Killa." He smirks and kisses me again before we get up for the day. Getting dressed, it's Saturday so I know there's a party tonight. We head into the main room and are sitting at the bar when the prospect puts coffee in front of us. "Thanks Kip." I say and he nods. "I want to do it tonight at the party." Happy says as he touches my forearm. I smile and say "I can't wait." We finish our coffee and head out to work. He laces our fingers as we leave the bar and when we walk outside he pulls me to him and kisses me softly. I head into the office and see Marci sitting there talking to Gemma. "Morning ladies." I say. "Morning baby." Gemma says and Marci just smiles at me. I see her neck and start laughing. "What?" she asks. "I see you got a little Tiggy love." She starts laughing and says "Yeah. He invited me to the party tonight. That okay with you?" she asks me. "That's fine. I actually would like both of you to be here." I tell them. "What's going on?" Marci asks. "Happy is giving me his crow." I tell them. Gemma jumps up and hugs me tight. "That's great baby." she says. "I'm missing something. He's giving you a crow?" she asks. "It's his crow tattoo. It shows everyone that she belongs to him. It's the biggest commitment the guys can make without actually getting married but they are as committed as if they were married." she explains and Marci's eyes go wide. "You want that with him?" Marci asks. "Yeah. I do." I tell her. "Then I am happy for you baby girl. He seems a little intense but I don't think I have ever seen you this relaxed and this happy so he must be doing something right." she says. "He makes me really happy. He's treated me better than any boyfriend ever had and that was before we officially got together." I tell her. "That's good baby." she says.
We are sitting around talking when my phone rings. I step out of the office to answer and see it's my brother. "Hey Jared." I say. "Hey sis. What's going on? Mom said you took off and weren't coming home?" he asks. "J, mom lied to me all my life. I found out that your dad isn't mine. I came looking for my dad and a paternity test said she lied to me." I tell him. "Is he good to you?" he asks. "Yes, he is and I met an amazing guy too." I tell him. "Are you happy?" he asks. "I am." I tell him. "Then, I'm happy for you and support you on this. But you need to keep your eye out with mom and Jason. They are both headed out that way." He tells me. "Shit. Really?" I ask. "Yeah. Jason said something about you dating a scary mother fucker, her he put it." he says and I start laughing. "He is intimidating." I tell him. "He good to you?" he asks. "He is. He's really good to me J." I tell him. "Then stick close to him and your dad. I don't trust Jason and, honestly, I don't trust mom either. She was talking about bringing you back here and making you marry Jason. Just make sure you're protected." he tells me. "I will. Did they say when they were headed this way?" I ask. "Their flight leaves in the morning. That's why I was calling, to give you a heads up." he says. "I'll let my dad and Old Man know." I tell him. "Old Man?" he asks. "Yeah." I say. "That's a big deal." he tells me. "It is." I tell him. "I'm happy for you sis. Stay safe and keep me posted." he tells me before we end the call.
I walk up to the garage where Happy and Daddy are and ask "Can I talk to you two, alone?" I ask. They look at me confused before nodding and they follow me to my dorm. Once inside, my dad asks "What's going on?" I take a breath and say "My brother called. Before you say anything, he is supporting me being here. He called me to give me a heads up. He told me to stay close to you guys that mom and Jason were leaving out in the morning headed back here. Apparently, mom said she's going to take me back and force me to marry Jason." I tell them. "I'll fucking kill 'em." Happy says. "Please do and make it fucking hurt. I'm done with their shit." I say. They both look at me shocked. "My Old Man is nicknamed Killa. You expected less?" I ask and they both laugh. "We'll call church and figure this out." Daddy says before kissing my cheek and leaving the room. Happy walks to me and says "You know I won't let them touch you right?" he asks. I look up at him and say "I know you won't. But you're still giving me your crow tonight." I tell him. Smirking, he says "Hell yeah I am." before kissing me hard and holding me close to him.
