Weeks past and it was business as usual in Charming.

Fay had fired an editor from one of her magazines for printing rubish about kids edication so now she was a working on writing articles as well as checking them.

She still hadn't asked Chibs for the party but had found out he had to be in New York for Club business.

Since their kiss nothing had happened.

No words, no touches no nothing.

She was starting to believe she had imagened the whole incident.

And to make things worse , they had started arguing most of the time.

She didn't want to, but somehow it happened.

There were no more double lines, small touches and the occasional flirt.

Fay was getting grumpy.

She had told Gemma she was going to the party on her own and Gemma had just laughed and told her that wasn't her call anymore.

Keira was now 6 months and was growing as weed. She was starting to sit up and laughed the whole day.

Whenever Fay took her to TM she was the centre of attention with the guys.

Strangely enough Tig was very amused and taken with the babygirl and made funny faces to make her laugh.

Fay just smiled, Tig wasn't her favorite person in the world but he was growing on her.

"Juicy I need some help, can you get my damm computer to work as it should?"

"Sure!"he smiled.

Juice and Fay had connected and found a commen interest in gadgets, computers and smartphones. None of the sons were that interested in it and talking to Fay about it was fun.

Juice had learned that Fay had inhereted a lot of money from her dad, that she had put to good use. She owned an apartment in New York, a publishing enterprise, the house in Charming and some investments.

She wasn't cocky about it and worked hard , mostly from home.

Gemma walked into the courtyard of TM and saw Fay hanging out with Juice. She was laughing about someting he told her. Chibs was looking from the garage looking grim.

"What scotsman, you don't like her talking to Juice?"

"She ain't mine so she can talk to anyone."

"But you don't like it!"

"Neh! but with the Fiona thing I can't give her what she needs."

"So?"

"So I have to stay away from her and bite me tongue!"

"Not if you talk to your so called wife!"

"She's never gonna give me a divorce."

"Probably! but you deserve to be happy too and so does a man and do something about it!"

"Chibs, I need you to go to New York and have a word with the guys there. Fay is going to be there as well at somesort of party so I need you to go with her and keep her safe." Jax told his SAG.

"Well that's gonna be fun."he replied sarcasticly.

"Don't care, whatever it takes. Fay and the club are your responsibility

now."

Chibs sighed, this was not going to be easy.

Maybe he should give Fiona a call, after all she left him for Jimmy.

That weekend Chibs and Fay went to New York. Thank good Fay had arranged a private fligh, because she knew flying with a son could prove difficult with law inforcement.

They got a cab and Fay gave the man the got out in the middle of New York on the edge of Central Park.

"What are we doin' here lass?"

"Sleep, eat whatever. I own an apartement here!"

She walked in and was greeted by the old man at the receptiondesk.

They took the elevator up and got out halfway. She unlocked the door and walked in.

"Ok This is the kitchen, Livingroom, bathroom and there is my bedroom. The one on the other side is yours for the weekend. I'm going to change and after that I'm off shopping."

"Okay!"

"I know you have club business so do your thing. I'll tell Francios to let you in and there is an extra key at the dresser."

With that she took off into her bedroom leaving Chibs alone withn his thoughts.

Fay had spend most of the afternoon shopping for babyclothes, presents for Tara's boys and some early christmas presents.

Chibs had spend his time at the NY clubhouse when he got a text on his cell.

"Meeting up with some friends won't be home for diner, Don't wait up,see ya tomorrow!"

His mood was dropping by the god the Sons had enough liquor

around.

When he got to the apartment he had found out Fay already went to bed so he did so as well. The booze was getting to him and he was out as soon as he hit his pillow.

The next morning he was greeted by an actue headacke and he heard the shower running.

Fay was in a good mood. She had a lovely diner with some old friends from Holland who were in town by accident.

When she got out of the shower she was greeted by the smell of coffee.

"Hey!"

"Aye!Coffee?"

"No thanks, you want to go out for breakfast? I'm not around enough to keep the food stocked so ..."

"Yeah sure give me 15 minutes, I'll hop in the shower."

Breakfast was simple, a diner around the corner served great pancakes and that's all either of them needed.

"What time do yeh need to be at the party?"

"Somewhere around 7 but I'll be fashionably late."she smiled

"got plans for today?"

"Nope, I need to pick up a toy I ordered for Keira so I'll probably end up shopping again. What about you?"

"No plans!"

"Wanna come?"

"And be you errand boy? Yeah that will be fun!"He replied sarcasticly.

"You don't have to, I just thought it would be nice. You can see what I got Keira! But forget about it!"

Ohh now she was getting pissed, that wasn't what he wanted and a pissed off Fay would annoy Jax even more.

"Neh I'm kiddin'. I'll come with yeh!"

"Good than we can get you a suit for tonight as well."

Chibs almost choked on his coffee; "I do not wear a suit Fay, forget it!"

"You have to, and just be glad it's not black tie!"

"Nope I ain't going!"

"You want me to call Jax?"

"You wouldn't !"

"oh yeah, Jax told me you'd come so you're wearing a suit."

"Just forget about me wearing a tie!"

"We'll see!"

A couple of hours later, Chibs had his suit sans tie and Fay had her presents.

She was holding most of the bags, Chibs held on to his word he was no errend boy!

At the apartement Fay called for some food and after diner wen't to chance into something more suitable for the party.

She hated these things but the came with being boss.

She gave herself the onceover in the mirror before she emerged.

Chibs was on the phone talking to Jax when she walked in.

She was wearing a simple black dress with crossed ties at the back.

Her hair was down, not in the ponytail she was know for and her makeup was darker than normal.

When chibs turned around he almost dropped his phone.

"Gotta go Jackieboy, Fay is ready."

He turned his phone off and just looked at her.

"Yeh look .. beautiful!"

"Thanks !"she blushed; "You clean up well too!"

The party was boring. Fay had talked to all the people she needed to in record time and wanted to get out as quicly as she would.

She had to stay untill the first dance and that's what she did.

Her senior partner had asked her for a dance and the auther of the recently published novel was the next one.

Fay had told Chibs that she found him to be a creep and when the guy's hand was sliding to far down, Filip deceided enough was enough.

"May I cut in!" and without waiting for an awnser he took Fay in his arms.

"I thought you didn't dance?"

"I don't! Bit that guy was grabbing ass a little too much and I didn't think you wanted a corpse at the party."

"Nope! You want to get out of here?"

"Neh , Aye'll let yeh have this one dance with me!"

They took a cab home and Fay kicked of her shoes.

"That's better!" she sighed.

Chibs was right behind her and when she turned around she ended up in his arms.

"Filip Thanks for tonight, I..."

Chibs cut her off, gently pressing his lips against hers.

She wrapped her arms around his neck and deepened the kiss.

They broke apart and their eyes locked.

"Night princess!"

Filip kissed her forehead and went into his bedroom.

Fay was stunned and went into her own. She heard the shower turn on and just sighed.

"That girl is gonna be the death me one of these days. Damm I need to talk to Fiona!"
