Chapter 25

Kate stood at the kitchen window putting the last of the veggie tray together watching Tig and Jax outside playing with Abel and Thomas she had sent Tara to the store to get ice for the beer. The barbeque was set up and ready to go if Happy ever showed up with the burgers. He had been MIA for the past few days leaving all of Mabel's birthday preparation to Kate. Kate could hear the toddler playing in her room she was hoping to keep Mabel clean long enough for everyone to arrive. She was lost in thought running a mental list in her head to make sure she had gotten everything she needed and didn't have to send someone back out to the store when she felt arms snake around her. She jumped and tensed up but relaxed when she smelled that familiar smell of smoke and leather. "Jesus Hap you scared me, I didn't even hear you come in."

"Alarms not set." Was all he said giving Kate a kiss on the neck.

"I know." This argument had been the bane of her existence the last month she'd forget to set the damn thing when she got home more often than not her hands full with Mabel and whatever else she had to cart into the house. Her and Happy had had several knock down fights about this, she just wished the thing had never been installed in the first place. "Tig and Jax are here I don't think they'd let anything happen to me."

"Well there not inside with you are they. You should at least have it set to beep when the fucking door opens." Happy said tensing ready to start this argument for the hundredth time. He wasn't sure how to get it through to this girl that she needed to take what he said seriously.

"Seriously Hap people are going to be coming in and out of here all day I don't want to listen to the thing beep all god damn day."

"And I thought I said I didn't want you bitchin about this shit." Happy said removing his arms from around her waist placing them on the counter beside her still blocking her in facing away from him.

"Hap I don't want to fight today, please." Kate said leaning back into him grabbing his hands from the counter and placing them back around her waist. "I missed you." She said tilting her head so she could look at him.

"Missed you too little girl." Happy said leaning down enough to kiss her lips her mouth opening just enough to allow his tongue access. His hands running down her blue sundress resting on her thighs. His mouth now going greedily to her neck hands going back up the front of her dress. He left one hand on her hip the other lifting up her dress as it traveled up then going back down under the hem of her underwear. Kate gasped and dropped her head forward when his hand found its final resting place.

"Hap we have company." Kate panted out.

"Yeah but there outside like you said." He said biting her earlobe and sliding two of his ringed fingers into her.

"Ohh God Hap that's good." Kate said rocking her hips she didn't know how he managed to get her so turned on in a matter of seconds maybe it was that gruff sexy voice of his or the way she knew how good he could feel. Kate and Happy froze when they heard a throat clear from someone behind them both their head snapping to see Gemma and Clay standing in the doorway of the kitchen. Happy quickly removed his hand smoothing out the front of Kate's dress.

"You two keep going at it like that your gonna have another little one running around here." Gemma said smirk on her face.

"Sorry Gemma." Kate said turning around from the counter trying to hide her flaming red cheeks. "We didn't hear you come in."

"Woulda heard them if you set the damn alarm." Happy said grabbing a carrot from the veggie tray popping it into his mouth.

"Well don't stop on account of us we can show ourselves out." Clay said with a wink as he walked out back Gemma following him.

Happy was just about to lean in and kiss Kate hoping to drag her back into her bedroom for a quickie but then heard a familiar little sound of "Daddy." Making him stop and turn around to see he baby girl stumble into the kitchen on her still unsteady legs walking towards Happy with her arms up in the air reaching for him. "Well look at you my pretty little munchkin." Happy said picking her up giving her a kiss on the cheek.

"She's been wanting to wear that dress since I bought it." Kate said smiling at the two Mabel dressed in her new pink dress with white polka dots on it with matching pink Mary Janes and white tights.

"Wing Daddy." Mabel said point to the backyard.

"Alirght, Munchkin I'll swing ya."

"Don't let her get to dirty please." Kate called out to him as the went to join the others already outside.

"Here you go Kate." Tara said walking into the kitchen with the bags of ice.

"Will you guys go put that ice outside please?" Kate asked of Bobby and Chibs who had walked in after Tara.

"You got it love." Chibs said grabbing the ice as him and Bobby went out leaving Tara and Kate in the kitchen.

"Kate I don't know how you stand it this place is like Fort Knox."

"I know fucking security glass on the windows state of the art alarm system that has to be on all the time. All I hear every time he comes around is "Kate you didn't set the fuckin alarm," "Kate said in her best Happy impression causing Tara to laugh.

The party had been great filled with beer, burgers, and cake. Most of the cake going all over Mable's party dress than in her mouth but she was a delighted one-year old. By the end of the party not space on the living room floor was untouched by pink wrapping paper and dolls. Kate had just put the last dish in the dishwasher and threw out the last beer can when she went into the living room to find Happy face down crashed out on the carpet head resting in the crook of his arm with Mabel sleeping on her stomach using his back as a bed, her newest doll clutched in her chubby little hands a gift from Uncle Harry. Kate smiled to herself the two had snuck off to the living room three hours ago when Kate had started cleaning up the mess left by the party goers she hadn't heard a peep from either of them since. Kate grabbed a trash bag and began to pick up the wrapping paper when she walked past Happy and Mabel, Happy reached his hand out grabbing her by the ankle. "Leave it for tomorrow Kate, done enough cleaning. Jesus Christ kid wore me out." He said propping himself up on his forearms and rubbing his face. Moving slowly as to not wake up Mabel.

"Aww rough day Daddy."

"What time is it?"

"It's only nine, you two went down a couple of hours ago. Here let me get her and put her to bed." Kate said dropping the trash bag and bending down to pick up Mabel who never stirred. "I think you wore her out more, don't think I'm going to get a bath out of her tonight." Kate said walking down the hall with Mabel. She managed to get most of the sticky stuff off with baby wipes Mabel never waking up as she put her in her pj's and laid her down in her crib.

When she got back into the living room Happy was sitting on the floor with the pieces of Mabel's new dollhouse in front of him as he worked on putting the monstrous house together. "You going to do that tonight?"

"Yeah, she wouldn't let me do it earlier kept taking all the pieces away better get it done while she's sleepin. Here you put the girly shit on." Happy said handing her a piece along with a sticker sheet.

Kate plopped down next to him and they worked together in silence until Kate glanced over at him watching him work on the pink toy the same concentrated look he had on his face when he worked on cars. Something about this man putting together his daughters toy had her wanting him more than ever she was instantly wet watching his hands work knowing what wonderful things he could do with them. She dropped the piece she was working on along with the stickers crawling in front of him grabbing the piece he had been putting together and tossed it to the side then crawled into his lap straddling him his knees going up to support her as she leaned in and kissed him. Happy slid his hands around her waist pulling her closer to him as she depend the kiss and began to grind against him. Happy moved his hands to her upper back and cradled her in his arms as he lifted them both up to lean Kate down brushing aside the remaining pieces of the dollhouse as he laid her on the carpet legs spread open and Happy resting himself in between her thighs. Kate reached the hem of his shirt to pull it off him as he undid his belt shimming out of his pants and boxers his hands going to her sundress lifting it up and off of her as she sat up to help him. He pushed her back down making quick work of her underwear and pounced on her ravishing every body part he could with his mouth making a trail down south stopping just below her navel placing a kiss on her pubic bone looking up at her he could see her eyes shut tight chest heaving in at out. He made his way down further spreading her legs wider with his rough calloused hands. Kate gasped out when she felt his tongue slide through her fold tilting her hips up to give him more access. Happy reached his hand out placing it on her tight abdomen to hold her steady as he continue to kiss, lick and suck on her exposed core. He continued his rhythm until he felt her shudder underneath him legs clamping around his head as she screamed out in pleasure. He rode out her wave of pleasure waiting for her body to go slack again before he returned to her slowly pushing his hard length into her, starting her build up all over again. This time he took her roughly not being able to hold back his need for her. With the taste of her still fresh in his mouth a combination of honeydew and sugarcane he knew he wouldn't last long glad he had at least given her what she needed first. Kate felt Happy enter her causing another wave of pleasure as he picked up his pace she could feel the carpet start to burn on her bare ass but didn't care about that right now all she wanted was him to just continue what he was doing his hips moving in a way that cause him to hit just the right spot. Kate could feel his thrusts start to become erratic and knew he was almost there but being selfish she wanted another one so she ran her own hand down to her still sensitive clit and began to rub tight circles until she was crying out in time with his release.

Happy waited for them to catch their breath before opening his eyes peering down at a smiling satisfied Kate he reached for her stroking her face leaning in to give her a soft kiss. When he pulled away Kate started to giggle. "What?" Happy asked.

"You have a pink heart sticker on your arm, looks kinda cute." Kate said reaching up to remove the offending sticker from his bicep.

Happy looked down at her smiling face his breath hitching at the sight of her beautiful flushed cheeks he suddenly had the urge to wrap her in his arms and never let her go. He couldn't remember the last time he had gone down on a woman but was sure it was sometime in the 80's or even given a shit if they got off. This little girl was royally messing him up.

"What's wrong?" Kate asked noticing a change in his demeanor.

"Nothin." Happy said kissing her. "Let's go to bed finish this shit tomorrow."

"Hey Hap?" Kate asked as they laid in bed her head resting on his chest.

"Hmmm." She heard his sleepy voice reply.

"How come your Ma didn't come today?"

"Didn't tell her about it."

"Does she know about me and Mabel?"

"Nah."

"Are you going to tell her about us?"

"Nope."

"Hap can I get more than a one word answer out of you?" Kate huffed out she hated it when he did this he wouldn't offer additional information like normal people did a conversation.

"Kate I'm not a fuckin mind reader you wanna know something just ask."

"Mabel's her granddaughter, don't you think she'd want to know about that. Is it because she wouldn't like us or that you don't want her to know about us."

"Kate don't get your shit all twisted up about this. I didn't tell her because it wouldn't matter, she's real sick and in a nursing home. She's got alzheimers, don't remember shit from day to day. Half the time she don't even know who I am and I think adding you two in her life would just make it more confusing on her. Confusing on Mabel she shouldn't have to deal with a grandma who don't know who the fuck she is when she sees her."

"Ohh Hap I'm sorry I didn't mean to bring up bad shit."

"You're fine little girl, I've been dealing with it for a long time used to it now."

Kate awoke the next morning hearing Mabel fussing about something when she entered the living room there sat Happy across from Mabel on the floor trying to put her dollhouse together while Mabel was trying to grab the piece he was working on. Each of them had their signature scowls on mirror images of each other neither of them backing down. "Mabel, you cut that shit out right now." Happy said pointing his finger at her grabbing the piece she was holding in her hand. It was then that Mabel stuck out her bottom lip, her pouty face looking up at her Dad. "Dammit all right here play with the damn thing." Happy said handing her part of the toy going to another section to start working on that. Yeah he knew he was sucker but that damn little girl had that pout down to a science and looked just like her Ma when she did it. "This is why I wanted to put this shit together last night." Happy said directing this at Kate when he saw her standing there watching them. Kate plopped down on the floor next to him Mabel coming to sit in her lap trying to reach for the piece he was now working on dropping the piece he had given her a moment ago. "I know Munchkin I'm hurrying woulda had it done already but your Mama had other ideas." Happy said motioning to Kate as Mabel looked on.

"Mama bad?" Mabel asked craning her neck to look up at her mother.

"Nah baby, Mama's good. Mama's a very good girl." Happy said reaching out giving Kate's leg a squeeze and smirking at her blushing face.
