Raining. It was raining yet again and Aries was finally figuring out why the locals in Seattle always bitched about the non stop raining. Four days straight. Four long days of being stuck in the house, watching the rain pitter patter against the window pane. It was driving her up the wall, making her practically jump out of her skin. "Baby…"

Happy craned his neck to look at the brunette. "Yeah?" He rasped as he stubbed out his cigarette. Another habit that he had seemed to pick back up over the weeks of him being in Charming. "You finish that puzzle yet or did you finally quit?"

"I quit." She mumbled as she walked over towards him and dropped onto his lap, her arms wrapping around his neck. "Entertain me… Please?"

He chuckled as he wrapped his arms around her waist and buried his face in her neck, inhaling the scent of her skin mixing with the scent of her shampoo. "I already fucked you three times in the last two hours." He squeezed her hip and pressed a kiss to her skin. "I'm fresh out of ideas baby."

She shook her head as she moved off his lap and tugged on his arms. "Give me another tattoo… Anything you want. Anywhere you want to put it. It'll be an adrenaline rush for me and a fun time for you."

He couldn't do nothing but give into her request. She had become his favorite canvas since the first time he put his artwork on her. The siren. One of his most favorite pieces to date. "You sure about it?" He irked an eyebrow at the gorgeous brunette as she glanced back at him with a sheepish grin. "You can't go back on this one."

She nodded as she pulled him down the hall and into the room where Happy had set up his own mini studio. "I know that I'm going to love the tattoo. Whatever it is that you decide to mark me permanently with. You know I trust you." She sat on the table and looked at him carefully. "I'm ready for you babe."

Happy nodded as he washed his hands in the mini sink he had set up before drying them and pulling on a pair of black gloves. "On your back, push your shorts down a little bit." He watched her do as she was told before flashing her a smile. "It's gonna be simple and classy."

"Love it when you get all bossy." Aries smiled as she watched him press on her lower stomach. "Oh, I can't wait to see what you put there."

He rolled his eyes and smirked, already knowing the perfect tattoo he was going to put on her lower stomach. Something intricate, something big, something that'd compliment her body and her Siren. "Just lay back and relax."

"I'm relaxing." She nodded as he folded her arms under her head and watched Happy go to work. "Not even a stencil? Just gonna go all free hand… That's pretty damn badass." She closed her eyes and let herself become consumed with the sound of the tattoo machine. Letting it lull her to sleep.

"It's gorgeous." Aries looked at her lower stomach in the mirror and smiled. "I don't know how you did all of this without a stencil. I love it. It just flows babe. It goes perfect with la sirena. I love it."

"I'm glad." Happy nodded. "Just don't go off and get knocked up, otherwise it's gonna make it look all funky until after you pop the kid out." He smirked as he wrapped an arm around her neck and kissed her temple. "Now, let's get going to the clubhouse. I wanna show you off."

She rolled her eyes. "Well fuck, there goes my plan of getting knocked up by a townie and pinning the kid on you." She laughed and shook her head. "I'm not gonna get knocked up. I'm too young for a kid."

"Hey, you're only supposed to my slut." Happy shook his head. "That's what the deal was." He guided her out of their bedroom and towards the front door as the doorbell sounded. "You expecting anyone? My guests would be pounding on the door, not using the doorbell."

"Nope. Juice is my only homie out here and he's out back in the guesthouse with some cute little slut from the clubhouse." Aries shrugged as she moved towards the security monitors and shook her head. "It's a cop… You wanna tell me something? You need to hide? Babe, I'll stall him. Go out the back."

He covered the brunette's mouth and shook his head as he pulled her away from the monitor. "Thanks for that. I know I can now count on you to give me an alibi for future incidents but this isn't for me." He pulled open the door and looked down at the portly cop. "Can I help you officer?"

"Yeah, I'm looking for a Miss Santiago." The officer let his eyes land on the brunette. "Are you Miss Santiago? I'm here to see if you know where a Dr. Brian Moore may be at. His family hasn't heard from him in over two weeks and last thing he spoke to him about what coming here to Tacoma and running into you."

"You mean, he didn't tell them that he smacked the shit out of me?" Aries scoffed as she crossed her arms. "I seen him twice, once when he showed up here and we got into an argument because I told him I moved on and didn't want him back and that's when he smacked me. The second time was when he showed up and tried to apologize to me. That's when my boyfriend here, scared Dr. Moore off. Haven't seen him since then."

"Very well. If I have any follow up questions, I'll be dropping by again." The officer nodded. "Enjoy the rest of your day."

The brunette nodded before pushing the front door shut and rolling her eyes. "Well. That was unexpected. I'm not sure what to make of his family actually wanting to look for him. He's probably just up and left." She smirked.

Happy chuckled and lifted the brunette off her feet. "I think you're losing it babe. I think you had a little too much dick today."

"No such thing!" She shook her head. "I could use some more in my life though."

"We're supposed to be going to the clubhouse for a party." He lowered her onto the sofa and looked down at her. "Stop trying to seduce me. I'm too innocent for this."

She laughed as she pulled her shirt over her head and tossed it at the man "You? Innocent? Yeah right." She lifted up her hips and slipped out of her jeans. "You gonna just stand there and watch me?"

He shrugged. "I may just stand and watch." He let her shirt drop to the floor before he smirked at her. "See what you do to get off when you don't have me around to do it for you."

"So you're into the whole voyeur thing?" Aries smirked back at him. "I think I am down to put on a little show for you."

"Ari!" Juice's voice rang out through the house. "Do you have-" He stopped at the entryway of the living room and quickly covered his face. "Shit- I didn't mean to interrupt. I just wanted to know if you had any rubbers…"

"Why don't you just walk out right now?" Happy shoved at Juice's back. "Cover up." He pulled his shirt over his head and passed it to the brunette. "I'll be back, let me get this idiot some rubbers before he ends up being called daddy."

"I'm already getting called daddy." Juice chuckled. "Thanks man… We kinda ran out."

"I don't need to know what you and the girl are doing." Happy shook his head as he lead Juice towards the bathroom and pulled a box of condoms from under the sink. "Here, twenty more rubbers. Tire yourself out kid."

Juice nodded. "Yeah, I plan to." He eyed the box before looking up at Happy. "I hope you two are playing safe Hap."

Happy nodded. "We are but why don't you worry about yourself." He pushed Juice out of the bathroom. "Go back to your slut."

"Mood killer." Aries shook her head as she watched Juice pass by the living room. "How do two grown adults run out of rubbers? They should've just went to the corner store."

Happy shrugged as he dropped onto the sofa and pulled Aries onto his lap. "They're both horny ass teenagers. Not even adults right now." He moved his hands over the brunette's bare thighs. "So, where were we?"

"We were getting ready to go to the clubhouse." She leaned her head back against his shoulder and smiled. "But first, I was gonna put on a show." She moved off his lap and sat across from him, her legs parting slightly. "This is gonna be a fun time Hap."

SOA

"What're you doing?" Aries popped up behind Everly as she stood in front of the case of pregnancy tests. "So, you're expecting?"

Everly shrugged as she chewed on her bottom lip. "I don't know. I think I may be. If I am, Gage will have a fucking heart attack. I can't be pregnant Aries."

The brunette shrugged. "Not the end of the world if you are. He'll come around. I've seen him with a puppy, he'll probably be good with a kid too." She trailed her fingers through her hair and smiled. "Will it make you feel better if I take one with you?"

The blonde looked over at the brunette and nodded. "Um, I think you need to start talking right now. Are you? Could you? Spill it?"

"No, I'm not pregnant. I am protected." Aries nodded. "I think you need to get over the fear and just get a test and we can take them together. Are you even on the pill Eve?"

"Yeah but sometimes I forget. Gage isn't a huge fan of rubbers and we just get so into the moment that we lose our sense." Everly sighed as she grabbed two pregnancy tests, passing one to Aries. "Let's find out our futures."

Aries looked at the test and shook her head. "I haven't peed on one of these since high school. Talk about a stressful moment. All I could think about what my mom killing me because she always preached to me about safe sex and not being a teen mom." She followed Everly up to the register. "Just relax. We all lose our sense at some point. Happy and I went from using a condom each and every time to just being little kinky monsters. A load on this tit, a load on my ass, face, never in the hair though."

"See, I didn't need to know all of that." Everly shook her head as they moved closer to the cashier. "But good for you two. I need to be as open minded as you."

"Yeah, yeah." The brunette shrugged as she paid for the tests before accepting her change and pulling Everly towards the bathroom. "We're doing them here. It's the best time plus, you can leave the evidence behind and Gage won't find out unless you tell him."

"You're an evil mastermind." Everly laughed as she walked into a stall. "Thanks for doing this with me. I'm scared out of my mind."

"That's what friends are for." Aries looked at her test before adjusting herself to pee on it. "These things need a better design. Should just be able to stick it in a cup of piss. Just like at the doctor's office but nooo, these things are asking for midstream piss."

"You're a fool." The blonde shook her head as she walked out of the stall and waited for the brunette. "Now we wait."

She nodded as she walked out and grabbed a paper towel and placed it on the sink before resting her test on it. "Hey, at least we'll have an answer in three minutes. It's a quick test." Aries washed her hands before running her nail through her long eyelashes. "Look at you, shaking like a damn leaf."

"I'm just nervous. This isn't just changing my future but Gage's as well." Everly gripped the end of the sink and looked down at the two tests. "I hate waiting."

"Don't we all." Aries lifted herself up onto the sink and began swinging her legs back and forth. "I'm here for you, regardless of the results. Homies for life." She laughed as she looked down at the tests, the results clear as day. "One negative, one positive. It's gonna be fine Eve."

Everly nodded as she wrapped her arms around the brunette's waist. "I'm gonna trust you when you say that."

Happy shook his head, his dark eyes taking in the sight of his girlfriend's attire. It was too short, too tight, too low cut. It showed too much of her perfect caramel colored skin for him to be okay with. He ran a hand down his face and grumbled as he watched another idiot try to push up on her, only for him to get the signature neck and eye roll from the gorgeous brunette. That's my girl. He thought to himself as he watched her toss her hair back over her shoulder and take a sip of her red wine.

"Happy." Aries sat down next to her boyfriend and passed him a bottle of liquor. "You look like you could use this."

"You're busting out of your dress." He ran his thumbs over the tops of her cleavage and shook his head again. "What is this party anyway? When you said bar, I thought we were gonna go to one of the dive bars and get shitfaced together."

"We can still do that." She nodded as she moved closer to him. "This is just a work thing… I just needed to show face and mingle. We can leave now though." She flattened her palm against his crotch and licked her lips. "Unless you wanna go find somewhere private and have some fun."

He cocked an eyebrow at the brunette before pressing his lips against hers. "I think you are drunk off two and a half glasses of wine. You lightweight." He pulled her onto his lap and rubbed the outside of her left thigh. "I gotta get you home and let you sleep it off."

Aries pouted as she felt him stand up from the sofa. "I need you to take me home and take this dress off of me. I can keep the heels on."

"I will take you home, undress you and put you to sleep." He carried her out of the bar and towards her car. "You need some sleep. I'll cuddle with you, does that sound like a good plan babe?"

She nodded as she let him put the seatbelt on. "Yeah, it sounds perfect. Cuddles with you are the best. You're a freaking human heater babe."

Happy chuckled and looked over at the brunette. "I'm never letting you drink wine again. I love you but wine makes you a little sloppy." He kissed her forehead before pulling out of the parking lot. "When we get to bed, no funny business." He looked back at her and rolled his eyes. "Already passed out."
