Author's Note: A friend from college is from Forks, seriously. I changed the name of the restaurant but there is one in the town with the exact items mentioned in this chapter on the menu. She sent me a photo text the last time she went home to visit because she just couldn't believe it. The werewolf and vampire border signs... yeah, they also exist. While I have slightly warmed to Twilight over the years, or, honestly, the fanfiction featuring Jasper, I have to tell you that a lot of Forks natives are NOT fans. Like a character I once wrote, my friend really did used to tell people she was from Seattle so she didn't have to deal with the Twilight jokes in college.

They had ordered dinner from the Forks Main Street Cafe. It was the only restaurant in town that delivered. Given the fact that the town earned its notoriety from the Twilight franchise, all of the items on the menu were themed after the books and movies. Molly had felt kind of silly when she called and placed their order (Happy had flat our refused to) and asked for Bella's Mushroom Raviolo and the Rpatz Special. All of the reminders of Twilight were making Molly nervous to show Happy her tattoo.
Happy was throwing away the containers from their dinner when Molly stepped out of the motel's bathroom after brushing her teeth and changing into a pair of yoga shorts and a Star Wars 'A New Hope' t-shirt. That's when the topic of tattoos finally came up.
"So, when do I get to see your ink, little girl?" Happy asked as he pulled off his t-shirt.
"When you swear to me you won't laugh." She was already blushing and she hadn't even shown him yet.
Happy lay back on the bed in nothing but his jeans with one arm behind his head and smirked at her. "Damn, baby, how bad is it?"
"I got it when I was sixteen and trying to rebel against my uncle. Karma came back to bite me in the ass when I matured and wanted it removed. My uncle refused to pay for its removal as punishment for getting it in the first place." Molly joined him on the bed, crawling to sit on her knees beside where he lay.
Happy sat back up and wrapped his arms loosely around her waist. "I'm not gonna laugh at you, baby. Come on, I'm your old man, you can trust me."
Molly groaned a little. "You are so lucky that I like hearing you call yourself my old man."
Happy chuckled and kissed her.
Before she could chicken out, Molly pushed out of his arms and pulled her t-shirt over her head. Then, she turned around and showed him her mistake.
It was silent for a minute or two before Happy finally spoke. "Little girl, aren't those the hands holding the apple from the fuckin' Twilight cover?"
"Yes," she moaned in embarrassment. "When I was younger, I firmly believed that Twilight was the greatest love story ever told."
Molly jumped a bit in surprise when she felt Happy's lips kissing her back, right above her shoulder blade where the embarrassing tattoo marred her soft skin. "I can cover this up with my crow if you want me too, baby."
Not caring in the slightest bit that she was now only in a sports bra and yoga shorts, Molly turned to him and shook her head no. "When I get your crow, I want it somewhere everyone can see it. Like right here," she said tapping her left shoulder.
That put a rare smile on Happy's face right before he put a hand on her naked waist and kissed the living hell out of her, his tongue sweeping into her mouth and plundering it like he was a damn pirate. Happy rested his forehead against hers when they parted. "I'll come up with something else to cover up the 'Team Edward' tattoo."
Just the fact that Happy knew the phrase, 'Team Edward' made Molly giggle.
Happy pulled her to lay beside him on the bed. She reached to grab for her t-shirt but Happy stopped her with a gentle hand on hers. "Stay like this," he requested. "I wanna feel your skin against mine while we sleep."
Molly couldn't (and didn't want to) say no to that. So, she simply relaxed in his arms and eagerly accepted his kiss.
