Chapter 10
Waking up the next morning, Happy is still sleeping next to me. I lay with my head on his chest thinking about how scared I was and how safe I feel with this man. Happy has made me feel safer than anyone else has and I can honestly say that I think I love this man. How can someone so dangerous be so gentle with me? Tracing my finger across the tattoos on his stomach, I feel him grab my hand. "Morning Little Girl." he says in that gruff voice I love so much. "Morning." I say as I pull away from him to get out of bed. Heading to the shower, I undress and turn the water on to let it heat up. Stepping into the water, I let the water run down my body as I feel a set of arms snake around my stomach as Happy presses his body to mine as he starts to kiss down my neck to my shoulder. Turning me around, he puts me against the shower wall and picks me up. Wrapping my legs around his waist and my arms around his neck, with his hand on my ass holding me up, he enters me slowly. Thrusting in and out at a steady pace, I feel myself getting closer to my release. Moaning softly in his ear I hear him whisper "I love you Little Girl." Smiling, I whisper back, "I love you Hap." Hearing me say those words, he finds his release. After we both catch our breaths, we finish showering and dry off and get dressed.
Sitting out on the bed, fully dressed, Happy is cleaning his gun at the desk while I just sit and watch him. "Happy." I say. He looks at me and knows what I am going to ask. Getting up, he walks over to the bed, lays down with me and asked "How much do you want to know?" Looking at him I say "Everything." He takes a couple of deep breaths and starts talking. "We found him in an abandoned warehouse. He was hiding in one of the offices and we all went in. We chained him up to find out why he picked you and he was stupid enough to actually tell me." he starts. "Why was he after me?" I asked. "He said that he wanted you for a long time and you kept turning him down and your mom said she would do anything so he made her take care of him and then still wanted you." he tells me and I can feel his grip on me tighten. "I decided that he needed to see what the other women that he sold off to be raped felt like so he took a lead pipe up the ass for a while. I made him beg me to stop like he most likely made those other women. After a while, I put a bullet in his head." I laid there and thought about what he said. "Are you okay babe?" He asked me. "Yeah. I think I am." I say. "Does that make you scared of me?" He asked a little hesitantly. "No. Believe it or not it helps me understand the lengths you would go through to protect me. Thank you Happy." I tell him before kissing him softly. "I will always protect you." he tells me.
Getting up to start our day, we talked to Jax and decided that now that Jason was gone, I would still work. I thought about quitting but that was because I didn't know how long it was going to take to take Jason down. It was still early so Happy took me to Cara Cara to rehearse. He still had not decided to let me go anywhere alone for a little while just to be sure but at least I could still sing. Rehearsals went great and Happy and I went home for the night. Standing in the kitchen, I asked Happy, "Did you mean what you said in the shower?" I asked him. "Which part?" he smirks. Smiling at him, I say, "That you love me." Looking away from him and back to the food on the stove, he gets quiet. I feel his arms wrap around my waist and he says "Yeah, I mean it. I love you." Turning in his arms I can't help but smile. "I love you too." I kiss him softly and turn back to making dinner.
