AN: First I would like to thank everyone that has been kind enough to review the last chapter and also everyone that has added this to their faves and/or alerts. I know my time line of things are off from when it was on the show but I had to work it in my way. I also won't be following it all very closely so if things seem different from the show it is because I decided to add my own twist or just plain take it out. I hope you readers enjoy this. Please read and review if you can.
Chapter Ten:
These guys partied much different than I had ever seen, it was almost like watching a porn movie live in action. Everywhere I turned someone was doing something out in the open for everyone to see and I couldn't take any more of it so I went back to the room and laid down. Sleep didn't come easy to me because they were very loud out there, sometime in the middle of the night I heard the door open and then felt the other side of the bed dip. I don't know why but it was easy for me to fall asleep once I felt his presence in the room and within no time I was out completely. When the morning came the small streak of sun light that came through the curtains woke me up, I felt a hand on my hip so I slowly looked over my shoulder to see Happy still lying next to me sleeping, I slowly slid out from under his hand and was about to get out of the bed when he moved. I stood still for a moment when I thought he was sleeping again I quickly got up.
"Where are you going?" Happy's raspy voice said just as I stood up straight and I turned to see he was looking up at me.
"I am going to the bathroom , I need to shower before we leave." I said as I walked over to my bags and pulled out some clothes.
"When you're done you need to pack some shit, we are going to be out there for few days." Happy said as he rolled over to his side.
I just nodded and walked into the bathroom and showered, I got dressed in a pair of shorts with a blue V-neck t-shirt. When I was done getting ready I went back into the room and Happy was packing a bag for himself. "The bathroom is free if you need it." I said to him in a soft voice and he stopped doing what he was doing to look up at me.
"There is a bottle of water for you on the dresser, I'm gonna shower." He said pointing at the water then walked into the bathroom.
I grabbed my prenatal pills, took one then drank some of the water. I quickly packed a bag while he showered by the time he was done I was sitting on the bed going through my emails, I heard the bathroom door open so I looked up. I was not expecting to see him just wrapped in towel, the body that had me in complete lust that night in my dorm room was standing there in all its glory and I was having a very hard time controlling my hormones. When he caught me staring he smirked at me and I quickly looked back down at my laptop, I glanced up one more time just as he dropped his towel to the floor and I quickly stood up on my feet.
"I'm going to go wait for you out there." I said pointing at the door as he pulled his underwear up.
"Princess you don't want to go out there unless you want to see half naked bitches laying around everywhere." He said smirking at me.
"Well then can you please get dress." I said turning away from him and I heard him chuckle at me.
"You act like you haven't seen my shit before." He said and I could hear the amusement in his voice and it was pissing me off. "No reason to act all nervous now."
"I'll take my chances out there, I'll be outside." I said quickly walking to the door and left before he could respond to me. Just like he had said, there were half naked skanks laying around with various guys with them. I quickly walked through the bar and was just about to get out the door when Gemma walked in halting me in my movement. "Hello Gemma." I said to her in a sarcastic voice.
"Trying to make a run for it?" she asked just as sarcastic while blocking the door with her body. "Does Happy know you're trying to leave?"
"Not that it is any of your business, I was going outside to wait for him." I said rolling my eyes at her.
"Oh yeah you two are going to Bakersfield today." She said with a glint in her eye. "I hope you enjoy yourself out there." She said walking around me. I turned to watch as she walked pass some of the guys hitting them awake on her way through the room. "Get these croweaters out of here before the work day starts." She said as she continued through the room.
I turned back away from them and out the door, I sat at the picnic table and watched as all the skanks left the clubhouse. After sitting there for a little bit longer I realized I had forgotten to grab my bag and laptop so I went back inside. Most of the guys were sitting at the bar talking, a couple of them waved at me as I walked by them. I went back down the hall and into the room.
"I forgot to grab my stuff when I left." I said to Happy when I walked in and saw him putting on his guns in the holster that was strapped to his shoulders.
"Just grab what you need and I'll grab your bag." Happy said as he pulled his cut on and grabbed his bag then walked over to the bed where I was standing and grabbed my bag. I stuck my laptop in the bag and grabbed my purse and we walked out of the room, he locked it up and we went into the bar where Kozik and another guy were waiting for us. "Miles you drive the truck and follow behind Reyna's cage, Kozik and I will lead."
"Damn you really are pregnant." Kozik said staring at my stomach. "I haven't seen you since that night and I had hard time believing it when they told me. Is it really Hap's kid?"
"Yeah mutha fucker it's my kid!" Happy growled at him as he stepped between us putting both bags in one hand. "You got a fucking problem with it?"
"Nah Hap… I just can't believe you're gonna be a dad." Kozik said putting his hands up in defense.
Happy turned to face me. "Let's go." He said as calm as he could but I could still hear the agitation in his voice, Happy led me with his hand on the small of my back when we got to my car he stuck the bags in the back seat as I climbed in the driver seat then walked over to my side of the car and leaned down a little to talk to me. "Where is the lock up at?"
"It's in Modesto on 9th street, it's is right off the highway." I said looking up at him. "I can lead the way if you want me to."
"I know where it is just follow me, when we get there we'll get behind you and you lead us to the lock up unit." Happy said walking away and got on his bike while everyone else got ready.
The four of us were on way not too long later, forty five minutes later we were pulling into the storage place and Happy said something to Kozik then I noticed Kozik pull off to the side signaling for Miles to do the same. Happy then waved me through and only he followed me the rest of the way to the storage unit I had. I got out of the car and Happy climbed off the bike and walked over to me.
"Why didn't the rest of them come with us?" I asked Happy as we walked over to the unit and he took the key from my hand and opened it.
"No one needs to know what you are getting out of here." he said sliding the door open. "Fuck!"
"What's wrong?" I asked looking over at him and he looked pissed.
"I though you would have a lot of shit in here… why the fuck did you get such a big unit for just a few fucking boxes and two bags?"
"It was all they had when I came, why is it a problem?"
"Because I want you take what you needed and leave the rest for Clay to see when he questions us about it." Happy said walking over to the three boxes I had in the middle of the unit. "Let me guess all of this is of some kind of importance to you."
"Yes it is… well not me but to the Russian mob. Happy how often do you forget I was raised with the Russian mob?" I asked him sarcastically as I went to pick up one of the bags and he snatched it from me. "What the hell?" I snapped at him.
"I don't want you picking shit up, I got it." he growled at me. "What the fuck is the difference if you were raised around the Russian mob?"
"I'm pregnant not handicap." I snapped at him as I walked back to the car and opened the trunk. "I have more than one storage unit… this one has everything I took from Viktor's compound and the other one has all my things from college in it. I was taught to never keep business mixed with your personal things so you can't get caught up."
"Damn girl I like your thinking." He said smirking at me as he place the bag in the trunk. "We'll take all of this with us and when Clay asks about the unit we will take him to the other one."
"So who exactly will know about this stuff?" I asked with a curious tone to my voice.
"Jax and I only know about you bringing me here but no one knows shit about the money."
"Jax won't tell Clay about us coming here?"
"Nah, this stays between the three of us. Does Maci know about this unit?" he asked and I shook my head no. "Leave it like that."
"Happy she knows about the money, she just doesn't know what I did with it and she won't tell anyone about. I trust her."
"I hope so because this shit will cause us a lot of problems, we need to hurry up."
Happy gathered the rest of the stuff and packed it all in my trunk, once we were done we drove back to where the other two guys were waiting for us. Happy said something to them then we were on our way again. The ride to Bakersfield seemed like it took forever, we had to stop once so Happy and Kozik could fill up. We pulled in front of a small house and Happy had me park next to the curb while they pulled the truck in the driveway. I felt sore and tired from the long ride. Happy walked over to the car opened my door and held his hand out for me to grab, I gave in to him and held his hand as he helped me out of the car. I smoothed my shirt over my stomach as I looked up towards the house and saw an older lady coming out of it. Happy pulled me around the car and towards the lady that was at the moment looking over at Kozik saying something to him.
Her eyes went wide at the site of me once her eyes were back on us. "Happy your mother wants to know if you brought her medicine with you?" she said to him as she got closer to us and this time my eyes went wide.
This bastard brought me his mother's house and he didn't even fucking tell me, I was pissed and when I tried to take my hand from him he squeezed it as he shook his head no at me. "Reyna this is my aunt Tina, Aunt Tina this is Reyna."
I was shocked at how polite he was being and the lady stuck her hand out to me and I shook it with my free hand. "Hello." I said softly to her.
"Happy your mother is in for a real shock." She said to him shaking her head as she pointed at my very pregnant stomach. "I know for fact you haven't told her about this because I would have heard already." his aunt said as she walked back to the house not even waiting for an answer to her question.
"Happy why the hell didn't you tell me we were coming to your mother's house." I snapped at him in low voice as we walked to the door.
"Because you wouldn't have come." He said smirking at me.
"No I would have rather gone to Gemma's family dinner than meet your mother who you haven't even told that I'm pregnant." I growled at him and he just smirked wider at me and I was ready to punch him.
He opened the front door and I glanced back at the two guys who were just standing there shaking their heads but didn't bother to make move to come in the house. Happy tugged on my hand pulling my attention back to him and when I looked forward he pulled me into the house. My nerves were going crazy and I felt like I was going to get sick but I was trying my hardest to fight it.
"Ma where you at?" Happy yelled as we walked in.
"In the kitchen sweetheart." I heard the older lady say to him and he pulled me the way the voice had come from. "Tina tells me you have a big surprise…" she started to say when we walked in and her mouth snapped shut. "Happy Lowman you have some serious explaining to do young man!" she snapped at him and I looked around trying to find the quickest exit but he still wouldn't release the tight grip he had on my hand. "Well explain!"
"Ma this is Reyna." He said in a low raspy voice, I noticed his aunt smiling as his mother glared at him. "I didn't want to tell you about her over the phone and this was the soonest I could get out here."
"Bullshit!" she snapped at him as she moved closer to us and smacked his arm hard as she turned to face me with a soft look on her face. "Sweetheart come have a seat, Happy let her hand go."
I smiled at her as she led me to one of the chairs, I was falsely led to believe I was in the clear until I sat down and her interrogation had begun. "My name is Lydia, it is nice to meet you. So what kind of family do you come from?" his mom asked me.
"Well my father was killed in a car accident when I was just two and my mother passed away a few years ago after losing her battle with cancer." I said getting to the point.
"Oh sweetheart I am so sorry to hear that, do you have any brothers or sisters around?" she asked and I shook my head no. "My dear god that's so sad, do you have any family?"
"I have my aunt, uncle and one cousin that I know of." I said softly to her and she smiled at me.
"What do you do for a living?" she fired her next question at me.
"I'm in between jobs right now but I am a lawyer and plan on getting a new job once we get back to Charming."
"How did you meet my son?" she asked as she sat in the chair next to me.
I wasn't sure on how to answer that because I was sure he didn't want her to know the truth behind how we truly met so I looked over my shoulder to where he was standing a little behind me. I was right because he had fed her some bullshit about meeting me through the clubs lawyer. "Ma we met through the clubs lawyer but it turned out that she is cousins with one of the club's members." Happy said as he put his hand on my shoulder and squeezed it softly.
His mom accept his answer then moved on to her next one, about twenty minutes later she was finally done with the personal question and moved on to ask how far a long I was. When I told her I was just over six months pregnant she snapped on him again for not telling her sooner. The conversation got calmer when Happy excused himself to go check on the guys outside.
"Reyna would you like something to eat?" his aunt asked me and I nodded at her as she stood up from the table.
"Reyna I know my son doesn't make an honest living but he will do right by you and my grandchild, when do the two of you plan on getting married?" his mom asked me and I was stunned silent for a moment.
I was completely lost on how to answer her and Happy wasn't in here to do it for me. "Happy and I don't plan on getting married." I said in a low voice. "We are just friends right now."
"But you are having his baby." His mom said as she reached forward placing her hand on my stomach. "He needs to do what is right and that is marrying you."
"I am so sorry Ms. Lowman." I said quickly getting to my feet and walked out the back sliding door.
So much happen in that moment, I was caught off guard by her question then having her rub my stomach the way I had wished I could feel my mother do it was just too much for me. I felt the tears about to slide down my face and I didn't want her to see me cry. When I got out the door a few feet from it I looked up to see Happy and the guys looking over at me. I didn't know what to do my only options was stay there where I was standing or go back in and face the question of why I had suddenly walked out the way I did. I decided to stay where I was so I wiped the tears away hoping they hadn't seen them.
"Koz, Miles go inside." I heard Happy say to them and I looked over to see them walking towards me. They both nodded at me as they went in the back door, Happy walked over to stand in front of me and I looked down at him. "Reyna what is wrong with you, did ma say something?"
"I miss my mom, I know it's been three years since she died but times like this I want her… I need her." I said letting the fresh tears slide down my cheeks as I rub my stomach. "I'm sorry you shouldn't have to deal with this." I said stepping back.
He quickly closed the distance between us and pulled me to him then wrapped his arms around me, I gave into my emotions and cried as I laid my head on his chest. Neither of us said anything to each other and that was perfectly fine with me, just holding me while I cried was enough at that moment. We stood like that for quite some time and when he felt like I had cried enough he pulled back a little and brought his hand up to lift my chin so I would look at him.
"Let's sit down." He said in a low raspy voice as he nodded towards the chairs his mom had sitting by the door.
We both sat down and looked out towards the back yard. "Happy why did you bring me here?"
"There were two reasons I brought you here. One I didn't want you in Charming without me because there is too much going on out there and I have this feeling Clay won't protect you if you need it, Two I though you and my ma should meet before you have the baby."
"I could tell Clay doesn't like me and I know not to let my guard down around him but do you think he would hurt me even while I'm pregnant with your baby."
"Something ain't right with the MC right now, like I said too much bullshit is going on. Clay ain't happy about having to give you a cut of the money and I don't want to have to kill my prez because he did something to you or the baby." Happy said looking over at me. "I want you trust me and I know it ain't gonna be easy but remember I won't let shit happen to you."
"Ok." I said as I looked back towards the yard. "Happy are you sure this is something you want because if you don't I understand, I don't want to drive a wedge between you and your friends."
"Look at me Reyna!" Happy growled at me as he grabbed my chin and forced me to look at him. "You may not be my old lady but you and our kid is family now and I don't fucking turn my back on my family especially one that has my blood running through its veins. Don't ask me that shit again."
"I didn't mean to offend you." I said grabbing his wrist. "I just wanted you to know that you are not obligated if it had not been what you wanted."
"Ok." He said as he released my chin. "We both know what the choices are and you know what I choose so let's just drop this shit already."
"Are we going to go through those boxes today?" I asked changing the subject.
"Nah, we can do that shit tomorrow." Happy said as Kozik stuck his head out the door.
"Hap your ma said for you two to come in and eat." Kozik said to us.
"A'ight." Happy said standing up and held his hand out to me pulling me to my feet when I placed my hand in his.
The two of us went inside and I apologized to his mom for leaving the way I did. We all sat down and had a nice dinner with a calm decent conversation, I could see how much Happy cared for his mother and aunt by the way he spoke to them. It was weird seeing this side of Happy I was used to seeing the tough, mean bastard I thought only existed. When dinner was over I helped the ladies clean up as the guys went outside to smoke. I didn't tell Happy about his mom asked about getting married but I did notice every time she could she would push us closer to each other. After Happy's mom and aunt went to bed I went and sat outside with the guys. I actually enjoyed the time I was spending with them because I couldn't stop laughing at some of the stories they told about the guys that weren't here with us. They were guarded with some of the things they said to me but it seemed easy to talk with them once I got past some of my distrust for them.
"I'm going to go to bed." I said getting up.
"Yeah I am too." Miles said standing up while he stretched his body.
"A'ight." Happy said looking up at me. "I'll be in there in a few minutes."
"Miles you are on the recliner, I got the couch." Kozik said as he pulled out a cigarette and smirked at him when Miles pouted like a kid. I shook my head at them and went to the room that Happy showed me we were staying in. I changed into some pajamas then sat back on the bed to read one of the baby books Maci had given me.
**Happy POV**
I stood there watching as Reyna went in the house followed by Miles. I knew she was pissed I didn't tell her we were coming to my ma's house but I also knew if I had told she would not have come with us. Kozik stood there staring at me and it was beginning to piss me off because I knew his ass had something to say to me.
"Spit it out." I growled at him.
"Hap I know I have been up in Tacoma for a while taking care of shit but honestly are you sure this is your kid?" Kozik said as he backed up a couple steps when saw my hand form a tight fist. "Brother I'm just looking out for you, that's why I didn't ask in front of her."
"Yeah I'm sure, I don't see her as the fucking type to lie about something like this." I said pulling out a cigarette and lit it. "Koz she wasn't going to tell me about the baby."
"Why the fuck would she keep it that shit from you?" He snapped and I could here he was pissed like I was when I had found out.
"She says it was because she was pissed I fucked her and left without a goodbye but I think it is because of what we did to her."
"Damn, I didn't even think of it that way." Kozik said running has through his hair. "Is that why Jax said she doesn't trust any of us?"
"Yeah, I'm trying to get her to trust me but the bitch is tough to get through to." I said rubbing my bald head. "But I got a fucking problem Koz and I need your help."
"Hap you never needed my help with personal shit."
"Yeah but I can't be around all the time." I said and he nodded at me. "Clay doesn't trust her because of her back ground with Putlova and all the shit she knows that can fuck us."
"Did Clay try to hurt her?" Kozik asked sounding shocked.
"No… not yet." I said and his eyes went wide. "I heard him telling Tig he didn't trust her and to keep tabs on what she does."
"You don't think he would…" Kozik didn't finish what he said when I nodded yes.
"Remember what he has done t Opie and Donna, I don't trust him with Reyna." I said as I stood up and walked towards her car. "We stopped at that lock up and cleared it out because Clay wants the shit she has."
"Wait a minute Clay said something about going to her lock up to find some shit when we get back to Charming, Hap what are you going to do about that?"
"Reyna had two lock ups and Clay only knows about one, I called Juice when I left her with my ma and told him when Clay has him pull the Intel on her shit to only tell him about one of them." I said as we popped open the trunk. "I ain't gonna let him fuck her over and the shit she has can fucking set her and my kid for the rest of their lives."
"Hap I'm with you, you make the call and I'll back you up." Kozik said placing his hand on my shoulder. "From Tacoma to Charming we have always had each other's backs and nothing can change that. Who knows about this shit."
"Right now she thinks just Jax but I had to pull Juice in so just Jax, Juice and us."
"What about Ope and Piney?"
"The less that know the better, Jax has too much to worry about with Clay and I need someone I can trust to help me keep her protected." I said looking over at him.
"A'ight, I'm in." Kozik said looking back at the trunk. "What do we do with this shit?"
"Take it to my room." I said pulling the bags out and slung them over my shoulder as I grabbed one of the boxes and he grabbed the other two then closed the trunk. When we got inside Miles was already passed out on the recliner so we quickly went to the room and I put the box down. "Let me check and make sure her ass is dressed or at least covered." I said and he nodded while opened the door enough for me to go in. I went inside and she was laying there holding book on her stomach but was sleeping, I turned back to the door and opened it slowly. "Bring the shit in but stay quiet she's sleeping." I whispered to him and he nodded as we got the shit in the room then walked back in the hall.
**Reyna POV**
I fell asleep in the middle of reading the book and didn't realize it until I felt someone grab it from my hands startling me. "Hey it's just me." Happy said as I quickly sat up and he was placing the book on the night stand next to the bed. "Reyna you seriously need to stop being so jumpy."
I looked around the room and noticed the stuff from my trunk sitting on the floor next to the dresser. "When did you bring that in here?" I asked him pointing at the stuff and he glanced back at it.
"Just now, go to sleep and we can go through tomorrow."
"Let's just go through some of it now." I said as I went to move my legs to get out of the bed and he stopped me. "Happy I'm awake let's just do it."
"Are you sure?" he asked and I nodded yes. "A'ight, bags or boxes?"
"The bags have the cash in them so there is no need to go through those."
"What the fuck, I thought you said you only had a hundred grand?"
"I do but it's in twenty's so I put it in two bags." I said shrugging my shoulders at him and he shook his head. "The boxes used to throw the stuff from his desk and safe into."
Happy picked up one of the boxes and placed it on the bed in front of me, the two of us went through it and a lot of it meant nothing to me but apparently it was enough for Happy not to want any of it to land in Clay's hands. By the time we got to the third box Happy had some stuff sorted to burn and the stuff he knew we needed was all in one box now, he placed the one box and two bags in the closest behind some other stuff that was already in there. Happy and I then walked out to the back yard where he placed the other two boxes in a fire pit. He wanted me out there to watch as he burned it so he could prove I could trust him. Once it was turned to ashes we went back inside and went to sleep.
I woke up the next morning to Happy yelling at Miles about cleaning up after himself. I climbed out of the bed and grabbed some clothes to put on then went to the bathroom to shower, by the time I was done getting ready for the day and walked into the kitchen Happy was pacing the room as Kozik stood there quietly watching him and Miles was standing outside the front door. Happy looked pissed off and I didn't want to bother him so I grabbed a bottle of water and went out to the back yard to sit down and give them space. I glanced over towards the driveway and noticed the truck we had with us was gone and I had a bad feeling about it.
Just as I was about to sit down Jax, Opie, Tig, Phil and Miles came walking in the yard and Kozik came out the back door. "Someone stealing our guns is a hiccup?" Jax growled at Kozik and I could hear the anger in his voice and I was right the truck being gone was bad.
"Are you shitting me?" Tig snapped at him just as Happy came out the back door and noticed me standing there, he quickly moved to stand partially in front of me.
"They took the truck thinking it was full of booze." I Kozik said to them and I could hear the worry in his voice. "It only had one case of AR 15's."
"Those guns are already sold… asshole!" Jax snapped at him. "The cartel is expecting all of them in two days!"
"I get it!" Kozik yelled at him.
Jax flung himself forward and pushed Kozik hard. "No what you get is jacked by a bunch of ghetto babies… Asshole!" Jax yelled as they were pulled apart by Opie and Tig.
I wasn't sure what to do everyone was trying to break it up and I felt Happy's arm come across the front of me and any moment was ready to push me behind him if he needed to. "Save it for Church!" Opie snapped at them.
"Let's just get the guns back bro." Tig said trying to calm Jax down.
"They're not going to hit the streets with that shit ok… they're going to try and sell 'em." Kozik said in a calmer voice.
"Alright, shut up." Jax snapped at Kozik as he turned towards Happy and noticed I was standing there for the first time since he walked in the yard.
"In this hood, only one place to do that… Vivica." Happy said to Jax.
Jax turned back towards Kozik. "They better be there!" he said to him then turned back towards me and Happy. "Sorry about this darlin'."
I just nodded at him as he walked pass me and Opie nodded at me as he walked by, Happy turned to face. "Go inside and stay there until I get back, everything you just heard…"
I cut him off before he could finish. "I didn't hear a damn thing." I said to him and he smirked at me. "Be careful out there."
"I always am princess." He said smirking at me as he ran down the driveway to catch up with the rest of them.
I went inside and made something to eat then clean up and sat down to watch some TV while they were gone. About an hour later Happy and Kozik came back to the house. "Back already… I take it things went well." I said as they both walked in.
"Yeah, Reyna we gotta go back to Charming." Happy said as he sat down next to me.
"I thought we were going to be out here for a few days." I said turning to face him and he smirked at me.
"I know but shit changed and we gotta go, once shit settles we can come back to visit ma another day."
"Ok, I'm going to go and pack my stuff, what should I do about that other stuff?"
"Just leave where it is, it's safe here." Happy said getting up and he walked into the kitchen with Kozik as I went to the room. Once I was done packing Happy walked in the room. "You ready?" Happy asked and I nodded as I picked the bag up and he stepped forward taking it from me then he walked out.
Just as we were about to leave his mom and aunt came home, she wasn't too happy we were leaving already and she made Happy promise her to bring me back soon. After saying bye we hit the road, I followed behind the two of them back to Charming. I was beginning to hate being in the car so much from the long ride there and the long ride back. Once we were on the TM lot I went inside to the room while Happy went in the room with the redwood table to talk with all the guys in there. I was in the room going through some of the bags Maci had brought me when the door opened.
"Hey Rey." Maci said walking in the room and sat on the bed. "How was the time with Happy?"
"Maci you would not believe where he took me." I said getting up from the floor and sat on the bed next to her and she raised an eyebrow at me. "His mother's house."
"Are you fucking serious?" She practically shouted and I smacked her arm as I shushed her. "He took you to meet his mom?"
"Maci she didn't even know I existed let alone that I was pregnant until we got there." I said to her in a low voice. "I wanted to kill his ass for doing that to me but she turned out to be a really nice lady."
"That's good right?" Maci said smiling at me as I nodded at her.
"How were things around here?"
"I don't know, Juice has been really off lately and I'm beginning to worry about him." Maci said looking down at her hands. "There is something wrong with him but he won't talk to me about it."
"Just give him some time and maybe he'll come around." I said rubbing her back when I noticed she was really upset. "Maci just let him know you are there if he needs you."
"Rey I'm pregnant and I'm scared to tell him with the way he has been acting."
"Oh my god Maci." I said hugging her and held onto me tight. "Don't worry everything will be fine. How far along are you?"
"About seven weeks, maybe I should just wait a couple of weeks then tell him."
"If that's feels right to you then yes do that but I am here if you need me." I said as I pulled out of the hug.
"Juice said he has to go with some of the guys to Arizona, is Happy going too." Maci asked as she sat back some.
"I have no idea, he hasn't said much since we got back here." I said just as Happy walked in the room and we both looked over at him.
"Reyna we need to talk about that with Clay and couple of the other guys." Happy said to me and I nodded at him.
"I gotta go anyways, I'll call you later." Maci said as she hugged me one more time then left.
"Is everything alright with her?" Happy asked as he glanced down the hall at her then looked back at me and I nodded at him. "Reyna whatever happens in there with them you go with what I say, a'ight."
We walked into the room he had gone in when we got here and noticed Jax, Clay and Bobby sitting there waiting for us. "Reyna take a seat." Clay said to me as Happy closed the door behind us and I got nervous. I knew Happy told me to trust him but being in a closed room with all of them was not very comforting for me. "We all know why we're in here so let's not beat around the bush."
"We talked about it and she thinks fifteen percent is fair enough." Happy said as he sat down next to me.
"Are you out your fucking mind?!" Clay snapped at me and I saw Happy tense up.
"I think it's fair." Jax quickly said.
"Fifteen fucking percent… that's bullshit!" he growled at Jax and Bobby just shook his head but stood quiet.
"I think that is more than fair when you are making one hundred percent of the profit." I said in calm voice. "You didn't have to pay a dime for any of it."
"She's right Clay, she could charge us what Putlova was and make more." Bobby said finally speaking up.
"Are you on her fucking side now?" Clay growled at him. "Fine you get your fifteen percent and I want to know the locations of the warehouses."
"You will get that when I get my cut of the stuff you already have." I said speaking up before Happy could and Jax smirked at me. "I need to look out for myself, you have your club and all your guys. All I have is myself and the locations of the other warehouses. So as long as I have that I know I won't get fucked out of this deal."
"Baby girl are you sure you're ready to play games with the big boys?" Clay asked me sarcastically. "Can you handle it, seeing the delicate condition you are in." he said pointing at my stomach.
"Reyna has all she needs behind her." Happy said putting his hand down on the table in front of me.
"That wasn't meant in any disrespect." Clay said smirking at Happy.
"Before this goes any further south are we in agreement here?" Jax said trying to defuse the situation.
"Aye!" Clay said getting up and walked out.
"Yes." I said to him and Bobby nodded at me as he walked out.
"I am not going to let him fucking threaten her and think its ok." Happy growled at Jax.
"Hap, Reyna just proved to Clay that she not one to roll over and fetch for him that shit just bruised his fucking ego." Jax said running his hands through his hair. "Shit will work it's self out just give it some time. Reyna I won't let Clay fuck you over."
"Ok." I said as he stood up and walked out and I turned to look at Happy who still looked like he was ready to kill. "Is there somewhere we can talk without prying ears hearing?"
"Yeah, lets' walk." Happy said getting up and I stood up also letting him lead me out of the room and out of the building. We walked towards the gate and stopped a few yards away from it. "What's up?" he asked when he came to a stop a stepped in front of me blocking me from the road.
"Happy I can now see that I could trust you and I think I can trust Jax but I can't trust Clay." I said running my fingers through my hair. "I am not comfortable staying here with him around."
"Look just give it a couple of weeks and we'll get you into a place of your own." Happy said putting his hand on my shoulder. "They are leaving in a couple of days for Arizona and I gotta lot of shit to handle but you will be safe I made sure of that."
"Happy you can't be around to protect me all the time."
"I know and I got that shit handled when I ain't around Kozik will be and he will protect you."
"Are you sure of that?" I asked.
"Hell yeah, Kozik and go back a long way and I know he has my back in this."
