Lorca had gotten the car inside where I assumed this Donut he'd mentioned was looking it over. I was already dreading what all they would find wrong considering it had been well over an hour and no one had come out with an estimate of how long it was going to take to fix it or the cost. I was half dozing in the warm afternoon sun when the roar of bikes filled the air. Cracking an eye I watched as two bikes pulled into the lot and turned towards the far end to line up with the others.
I started to let myself doze off again when I heard the sound of clunky boots walking in my direction. I opened my eyes again to see Happy and Kozik walking across the lot. Kozik was saying something and Happy looked like he was only half listening. I smiled at the familiar sight and waved as the two got closer.
"Hey, Jade!" Kozik greeted with a bright smile and plopped down in the chair next to me.
"What are you doing here?" He asked as Happy stood in front of us.
"Was doing errands and the car decided that it didn't want to leave the grocery store." I explained with a shrug.
"Just waiting to find out how long it's going to take to fix it." Kozik nodded while Happy looked toward the bay doors.
"Who came to get you?" Happy asked.
"Lorca." I answered and Happy grimaced a bit and I looked to Kozik for an explanation but he just smirked.
"He the one looking over your car?" Kozik asked.
"Nah. Lorca said he was going to have Donut look at it." I said and Kozik laughed.
"Donut's an idiot." Happy growled and marched off into the bays. I was left completely bewildered with a laughing Kozik.
"What the hell?" I asked and Kozik sobered up a little.
"If you wait on Donut to fix your car, you're going to be waiting awhile. Donut doesn't do much fast, usually works like a sloth. Lorca's just a nosy bastard. He ask a bunch of questions on the drive over?" I shook my head.
"Just said that you and Happy seemed to like me." I shrugged and smiled at Kozik.
"Told him I figured that because you came around too much to hate me." Kozik chuckled and threw an arm around my shoulders.
"That's true." It wasn't long before Happy came marching back out.
"Taking you home." Happy grumbled spinning a set of keys around his finger. I raised an eyebrow and glanced at Kozik.
"The prognosis is that bad on my car?" I asked and Happy scowled.
"Not letting that idiot work on it." Happy stated and Kozik chuckled as he stood up.
"Ok, what about my groceries?" I asked and accepted Kozik's hand to help me stand.
"I'll have the prospect bring them over later." Hap stated and I wanted to protest but Koz shook his head.
"Don't worry about inconveniencing the prospect, it's literally his job to be inconvenienced." Kozik said and still wanted to argue but I suppose there are worse things they could be making him do then making him deliver my groceries.
"See you later, Jade." Koz bid and headed inside.
"Yep, talk to you later." I replied and followed Happy back to the row of bikes. Happy didn't say anything as he took my crutch and leaned it against the fence and then picked me up like I weighed no more than a feather to set me on the back of his bike.
"You ever ridden bitch on a bike before?" Happy asked and I shook my head as he handed me a helmet.
"No, I've never had the opportunity." I was surprised to see his lips twitch a little.
"Hold on tight and lean with me. That's all you need to know." I nodded and he got on.
"What about my crutch?" I asked as he settled onto the seat.
"We both know you only use it when I'm around." I didn't get the chance to reply as Hap revved the engine. I scooted forward a little in the seat and wrapped my arms around his stomach, holding on tight like he had instructed me to. The bike rocked a little as Happy walked the bike out of line. I could just peek over Hap's shoulder as we rode out of the lot, the few people standing around outside were looking at us strangely and it was making me self-conscious.
As we hit the main road the engine roared as Happy twisted the throttle and sent us flying down the street. The ride was exhilarating, the speed of the bike had my stomach twisted in a knot and my heart pounding in my chest, the wind whipping past stung my eyes, but I couldn't bring myself to close them and miss the world flying by in a mix of startlingly bright and blurred colors.
I could only truly see where we were when Happy turned onto the street leading to the bar. His hand eased up on the throttle and the bike coasted into the back alley before coming to a stop where my car was usually parked. Happy climbed off first, then none to gently plucked me off the back of his bike and setting me back on my own two feet.
"Key." He said and held out his hand. I smirked as I reached into my back pocket and pulled out the brown paper bag that I'd gotten at the hardware store. I put the bag in Happy's outstretched hand and he looked at it confused.
"I figure sooner or later you're gonna have another run. Figured you having your own key is a lot safer than leaving the door unlocked for you." Happy opened the bag and dumped out the little house key.
"Are you asking me to move in with you?" Hap asked. I could tell he was trying to act like he didn't care about the answer, but the small twitch of his lip and the lack of a scowl gave him away.
"Like you haven't already made yourself at home? You trying to tell me those aren't your clothes in the guest dresser?" I shot back with a raised brow and smirked. An emotion I couldn't decipher flashed across his face before a smirk graced his lips. Instead of saying anything Hap walked away and started up the stairs toward the door. As he walked away I smiled to myself, a feeling of victory consuming me as I followed him up the stairs. I had worried about how he would react to me giving him a key and was ecstatic that I had managed to do so without making the situation unnecessarily awkward or sappy. I knew doing so was more likely to send him away than keep him close.
When I got to the top of the stairs Happy had already opened the door and gone inside, leaving the door wide open while Ace greeted him just inside the door. I rolled my eyes at the two and closed the door behind me, kicking off my shoes and walking into the kitchen to grab a beer. I grabbed out two, popping the cap off both and setting one across the table from me as I took a seat.
Hap messed with Ace for a moment before taking a seat. We sat in silence for a moment, just drinking our beers, before I decided to broach a topic that would make or break Happy sticking around. I fiddled with the bottle cap as I thought of how to word it. Happy seemed to pick up on it as I caught him eyeing me.
"There's just one thing I want to clarify about you staying here." I started and the guarded, narrow eyed look entered Happy's eyes, almost like he was bracing for whatever I was going to say.
"I don't want any of those whores in my house." The guarded look and the tension in his shoulders melted away and was replaced by a look of amusement.
"Whose to say that I would want to bring a whore here?" Happy asked as he took a drink from his beer.
"That your way of telling me you're gay?" I asked taking a drink of my own to hide my smile as Happy choked and sputtered on his drink. I handed him a napkin as he got enough control of himself to glare at me.
"No. Not even close." He growled out and I chuckled before standing to grab a towel out of the drawer to clean up the rest of the mess he'd made. When I turned around I was surprised to find Happy standing right behind me. My voice seemed to get stuck in my throat at the dark look in his eyes. He leaned forward, his hands going to the counter on either side of me, effectively pinning me in place though I didn't want to be anywhere else.
"I don't want any whore." He growled out and before I could regain use of my voice to say anything his lips were on mine. It wasn't anything like the normal cliches. His lips weren't soft or gentle, but chapped and demanding as he pressed me further into the counter and his hands fell to my hips to hold me exactly where he wanted me. My hands grabbed at the front of his kutte as I kissed him back, loving every second of it as desire built in my gut, making me push back against him and dropping the now forgotten towel onto the floor.
I gasped for air as Hap broke away. My heart racing like it had only minutes ago as Hap had sped through the streets to get here. I was thoroughly breathless and didn't even want to protest the treatment as Hap pulled me away from the counter long enough to grab my ass and heft me onto the counter as his lips traveled down my throat. I moaned as he found a sensitive spot at the juncture of my neck and shoulder. I tugged at his kutte and wrapped my good leg around his waist to pull him closer while his hands continued to grope my ass. He stepped closer between my legs and I ground down into him, making him groan before he started back up my throat.
I smiled into the kiss when he crashed his mouth back onto mine, our teeth clashing and making my lips ache. I couldn't help the hiss that left me as Happy's hands started to roam and brushed against my sides. I could feel him smirk before he did it one more time to make me squirm and I fought the giggle that wanted to escape. My hands left his kutte and roamed over his shoulders and down his arms till I grabbed his hands, pulling them up from where he'd stopped at my rib cage and toward my aching chest. His lips left mine again and this time I nipped along his jawline and soothing it with my tongue before moving further to find a sweet spot under his ear that had him fondling me harder and rocking against me. I smirked and continued down his neck and brought my hands up, feeling along the muscles of his arms and grasping the broadness of his shoulders to use as leverage to bring my mouth back to his.
His hands moved from my chest and splayed across my back, pressing me closer while my hands dipped between his kutte and his shirt, tentatively at first to make sure he'd let me, then gently grasping the leather to guide it down his arms. I broke away from the kiss to carefully lay the leather on the other end of the counter out of harm's way before reaching for the hem of his shirt and pulling it up to expose his toned torso and the multitude of tattoos that covered it. I chuckled at the cluster of happy faces next his right hip as Happy ripped the shirt over his head.
"What you laughing at, woman?" He growled as he nipped at my neck. I chuckled again as I let my nails lightly scratch down his back and sending a shiver through his body.
"Just the irony of you having happy face tattoos." His lips hummed against the side of my neck and I tilted my head to give him room.
"What about you?" He asked.
"What about me?" I asked, my breath hitching as he nipped at the artery in my neck.
"Any ironic tattoos?" He asked and backed away to eye where my clothes hid most of my skin.
"No, nothing ironic." I said and began unbuttoning my shirt, quickly stripping it off and following it quickly with the white tank top that had been underneath and revealing the large tattoo that stretched the length of my rib cage underneath my left arm. The tattoo was a large raven in flight with an intricate key held in its talons flying away from a gothic style cage with the door open. Happy took in the piece, gently running a calloused finger along some of the lines and sending a shiver through my body at the contact. He smirked then his eyes focused on something and he tugged me down from the counter and moved to see my back. I smiled and moved my hair out of the way and quickly unsnapped my bra so he could see the massive tree unobstructed. The tree took up most of my back with the top of the tree standing out against the northern lights that served as its background between my shoulder blades.
"Damn." Happy said and once again traced the design with his finger. I turned to face him and enjoyed the way he took me in as I let my bra drop to the floor. I reached out, taking a hold of his belt loops and tugged him toward my bedroom. Happy let me lead for a couple steps before he grew tired of my gimping pace and swept me off my feet. I laughed at his impatience and took advantage of being high enough to reach his neck, dropping open mouthed kisses to the skin while my finger traced the snake the covered his chest.
Happy kicked the door shut with his foot and all but threw me onto the bed. I laughed as I bounced, but was cut off as Happy's lips reunited with mine as he climbed on top of me. His hands dragged down my body before cupping my ass briefly and then going for the buttons on my jeans. I lightly dragged my nails along the front of him, making him grunt as I got closer to his belt, feeling blindly to free him of his pants. Happy broke the kiss to tug off my pants and took the liberty of removing his own before using his tongue to learn my body. By the time he made it to my hip I couldn't hold still anymore, wiggling and pulling at his arms to bring him closer, but he refused. A wicked smile took over his face as I whimpered. He didn't stop till his lips connected with mine and I took the opportunity to wrap myself around him. I shoved his underwear down his hips as far as I could reach before using my feet to move them farther down his legs till he could kick them off.
When I reached to free myself of my own underwear Happy's hands caught mine before moving them above my head and wrapping my fingers around the edge of the headboard before returning his torturous tongue to my skin and making his way back down. I wanted to scream in frustration, but bit my tongue to keep quiet, but that only lasted a moment till Happy's tongue laved over my nipple and sent a whole new set of sensations coursing through my body. I gasped and bucked against him, my whole body felt like a live wire and it only got more intense as he took the hardened nipple into his mouth and bit down on it, creating a mixture of pain and pleasure that made me buck against him again. This time his hand moved to press between my hip bones above my pelvis, pinning my hips to the bed and preventing any friction.
I whined at the restriction, but Happy chuckled slightly before moving to the other nipple to do the same before moving down. When he reached the waistline of my panties he looked up at me before using him teeth to pull them down. Prior to this I had heard about men doing this and thought it was completely ridiculous, now I realized just how hot the action was and threw my head back with a groan. As my panties slipped down my legs I could heard Happy fumbling with his pants and pulled my head up.
"Condoms are in the middle drawer." I said and nodded to my night stand. He glanced up at me quickly before opening the drawer. He looked in the drawer before raising a brow at me in question.
"Don't look at me like that. Never claimed to be a nun." I grumbled and Happy snorted before grabbing out a condom and quickly ripping open the packaging. Quickly putting the condom on Happy returned to his previous position above me, nipping at my collar bone and neck while his hand crept up my leg. I thought this was going to be a continuation of his games from earlier and whined, then without warning two of his fingers were sinking into me and I groaned at the feeling. It had been a while and the sensation of being overstretched so soon wasn't completely pleasant, but after a few strokes his thumb sought out my clit and I moaned again as I was finally able to relax into the motion.
I could feel the familiar tightening beginning in my gut when Happy removed his fingers and shifted. I could feel his gentle prodding and relaxed as best I could as he slowly sank himself in. I held my breath, biting the inside of my cheek to keep from whimpering. Happy groaned when he finally stopped moving and his hips met mine, giving me a moment to adjust before starting to move again. His hands moved up and fondled my breasts and then his mouth repeated its earlier actions and the sensations returned. I let out a gasp as the pleasure returned with the knotting feeling in my gut as I started to move against him.
As I started moving against him, his thrusts picked up the pace and his hands moved to my hips to pull me closer with each thrust. I knew he was getting close when his pace picked up again and he moved to grab a hold of my ass and lifted it off the bed. I gasped at the change in position as he found a particularly pleasurable spot and I could feel the knot in my gut growing tighter. I wanted to reach down and bring myself closer but I fought to keep my hands where they were. At that moment I didn't want to risk him stopping to return my hands to the head board.
As if reading my mind, one of Happy's hands left my ass and found the little bundle of nerves again. I cried out as it was enough to send me over the edge. As I hit my peak my hands left the headboard and grabbed onto his head, pulling myself up to connect our lips. As my orgasm started to wane, his thrusts became erratic and he let out a low groan as he stopped moving and collapsed on top of me before bringing his arm up to push himself up as his hips bucked two more times before he broke away from the kiss and flopped onto his back on the other side of the bed. We laid there in silence for a long moment, enjoying the lingering pleasure before I turned onto my side to look at him.
"I'm kinda glad my car broke down today." I said with a smirk and Hap released a huff of air that I counted as a laugh as he looked over to me with a smirk.
"Me, too."
