Disclaimer: Even though I haven't updated in forever, I still
unfortunately own no one except Gaby and her mom, and even though I made up
Mark's kid, I'm almost certain that I don't own the baby.
Chapter 2.
Christmas was nearing and Mark hadn't called Christi to tell her that he would be joining her and Gaby for Christmas dinner. Gaby just chalked it up to him being famous and busy. After all, he had just found out about Gaby, she didn't feel that he had any obligation to spend the holidays with them, hell, he really didn't have to spend any time with them. Gaby was walking through the grocery store trying to decide on what she wanted to fix herself for Christmas. She was going to do something different this Christmas, no TV dinner, it was probably going to be take out. Maybe Chinese.
"I still have a week till Christmas; I have plenty of time to decide." Gaby thought, "although, it would have been cool to say that I had Christmas dinner with the Undertaker." Gaby laughed lightly to herself.
She finished shopping and headed home to fix herself lunch before she had to go to work. She had really started to loathe going to work. The drunks pinching her ass were really starting to get to her. "Oh well, I can find another job somewhere else." She pulled her car into the parking lot, but stopped dead in her tracks when she saw what was sitting in front of her building.
It was about 20 bikers, and there he was sitting in the front. Big dog in the ring, big dog with the bikers. "Hey Mark." She said using emphasis on his name.
"Hey sis." He said using the same emphasis. "How are you?"
"I'm good. What's with the entourage?"
"The what?" One of the bikers asked.
"'Tard. Entourage means group, or friends." Gaby replied slowly.
"These are the guys." Mark replied. "This is Chains, and Bones." He said pointing at the two guys that were sitting on either side of him. "They, uh, take charge of the group while I'm out of town."
Gaby stood eyeing them suspiciously. "That's nice. What are you doing here, Mark?"
"Well, we were in the neighborhood and we figured that we'd come over and eat with you."
"Yeah, um, I really don't stock my cabinets to fulfill the hunger needs of me and 20 bikers. So there really isn't enough here to feed all of the boys."
"That's all right, hop on, we can go out to eat."
"Mark, I have to be at work in a couple of hours, I really have to eat, shower, change clothes, and head out. I don't think I have time to go out to eat with you. Oh, by the way, I was supposed to ask you if you were coming to Christmas dinner with us?"
"Don't know yet. Haven't talked to Sara about it."
"Well, you're running out of time. You need to talk to her and let mom know."
"Yeah, Marky, let mommy know if you're gonna be there." Chains mocked.
"Look here, Chains, is it? Well, Chains, I don't need your shit. I just found out that Mark was my brother on Thanksgiving. You however, I just met today, so if what they say about first impressions lasting forever, then this will be etched into your brain. FUCK YOU!" She spat as she flipped him the double bird. Gaby turned to her car, got her groceries and went inside to eat and get ready for work.
Meanwhile, as the rest of the guys were laughing at Chains for getting told off by a girl, Mark called Christi to find out where Gaby worked at.
That Night
"Here's you double scotch and soda sir. That'll be $6. Thanks."
"I'll have a Jack and Coke."
"Sure thing- Mark. What are you doing here?"
"I'm ordering a drink, the boys will order their own. So, this is where you work, huh? Nice."
"Thanks for the sarcasm there Mark, but you know what it pays, but it only pays when I work, not have conversations with people that I have only seen two or three times. Here's your Jack and Coke, that'll be $5." She said as she held out her hand for the cash.
He looked down at her hand. "Aw, sis, you know I'm good for it, put it on my tab."
"We don't have tabs here Mark."
"But you know I'm good for it. Hey, how 'bout you pay for it, and I'll pay you back."
"No, you'll pay for it, just not in cash. Hey Louie, this guy's trying to stiff me on a Jack and Coke."
Louie, the bouncer at the club, who was about as tall as Mark, but weighed about as much as Rikishi, walked up to him. "You got two choices, you can either pay for your drink, or you can leave."
"Do you know who this is?" Chains piped in.
"Yeah, he's the big bad dog the Undertaker. Ohhh, I'm so scared I am shaking." Louie said dryly. "You heard your choices, now what's it gonna be?"
Mark reached into his wallet and pulled out a $5 and tossed it at Gaby. "Thank you Big Brother, I knew you'd see it my way."
"Big brother?" Louie asked.
"Yup, Louie, I'd like for you to meet my brother Mark Callaway, aka the Undertaker. You're not gonna try to stiff me again are ya bro?"
"No," Mark scowled at her. He and Chains turned and went to where the rest of the boys were.
Gaby hoped that they would leave before she got off work, but she had no such luck. "I'll see ya tomorrow Joe. Bye Louie."
"Bye sweetheart. You gonna be ok?"
Gaby looked over at Mark and the boys. "Yeah, Louie, I'll be fine." Gaby grabbed her purse from behind the bar. "Well, Mark are you gonna escort me out to my truck, or do you think I'm a big girl who can do it on my own?"
"You sure are being a bitch."
"You came into my place of business and could have gotten me fired for taking my attention away from the other customers who were ordering drinks. So I think I have a right to be a bitch, don't you?"
"Whatever."
"Night Mark." Gaby got in her truck and headed for her apartment for some sleep.
A/N: Well? What'd ya think? R & R!
