Thank you for the reviews!
Ch 10
All day Friday Kerry was staring at the clock. Thursday she had gone home from work and fell asleep on the couch for 2 hours. She was dragging today but was excited to get to spend a few days alone with Happy. As the bell rang to signal the end of the day Kerry walked her students outside to dismiss them. Once they were gone she went inside and quickly cleaned up her classroom and glanced at the clock it was almost 3, when Happy was going to pick her up. She said her good-byes and went outside to see Happy already waiting. Kerry put on her helmet and climbed on behind him. The drive took about 2 hours. They stopped for an early dinner on the way.
"Are you sure your ok?" Happy asked.
"I'm good, great. Just a bit tired."
"We can hang out here for awhile."
"We're almost there right?"
He nodded.
"I can make it."
They had a room in a quiet resort. It looked like there were only a few other guests.
"It's beautiful here." Kerry said looking out the window to see a view of the lake.
Happy put his arms around her.
"We should go have a drink." Kerry said as Happy shook his head.
"Not tonight. I just want to be here alone with you."
They took a bath together and Kerry put on one of her new lingerie sets. After two intense sex sessions they both fell asleep.
The next day after sleeping in Kerry talked Happy into going for a walk. He seemed really fidgety and wasn't really listened to her.
"Are you ok?" Kerry asked as they got back to the hotel.
"Yea, of course." He said quickly.
When they returned to the room they hung around a bit before going to dinner. After dinner they had a few drinks before returning to the room. Happy's lips crashed into hers as they closed the door.
"You are so fucking sexy." He said picking her up as Kerry's legs went around his waist. An hour later they were tangled in the sheets Happy got up and quickly returned to the bed.
"Kerry, I love you so fucking much and I can't imagine my life without you." Kerry's eyes widened as she bit her lip. "I want us to be together and have a family and move into that house you want. Will you marry me?" He opened the small box he was clutching as Kerry nodded tears filling her eyes.
"Yes, yes I'll marry you." She said as he slipped on a simple diamond ring. "I love you too. You really want to have a baby?"
"I know you do and your doctor said nows a good time. You will be an amazing mother and I might be scared as hell being around a new baby but I want a family with you."
Kerry wiped at her eyes.
"This is perfect, I want that too. I have an appointment with my gynecologist on Wednesday. She gave me the Depo injection after the surgery and that should be wearing off in about 2 weeks so after that we can try. You will be a great dad. Would you mind if I called Kathryn? She'll kill me if she's not the first to know."
"Go ahead, I should call mom and Aunt Harriet. They will want to hear the news."
Kerry slipped on Happy's shirt and her panties as she dug out her phone and took a picture of the ring then texted to to Kathryn and called her. Happy had shown his mother and aunt the ring Friday morning and told them of his plans, originally it was to ask her during dinner but he was too nervous which was unheard of for him.
"Your engaged?!" Kathryn screamed into the phone as Kerry held it away from her ear.
"Yes!"
"That's amazing, how did it happen? Was it romantic?"
"Yes, it was. It was honest and real."
"Come on details." After Kerry paused Kathryn started to laugh. "You two were messing around, weren't you?"
"No comment."
"I bet, you two probably have some crazy sex life. Wait don't answer that. I'm happy for you."
"Will you be my maid of honor? We haven't even talked about the wedding yet but-"
"Of course. I'll let you go celebrate. Call me when you get home. You should text Mary too! Night!"
"Night Kathryn."
Kerry texted the picture to Mary. Mary didn't answer right away and Kerry quickly left a message that she'd call tomorrow to chat. Kerry opened the door to see Happy just finishing with his mom.
"Mom and Aunt Harriet said congratulations and they want us to stop by during the week, sooner then later."
"Of course."
Sunday night they arrived at the clubhouse to a party already underway. Kerry was shocked to see Mary standing with Gemma.
"There you are! I'm sorry I didn't answer your call but I got your text and I talked to Kathryn. Gemma and I planned this." Mary grabbed her hand and then hugged her again.
"Congratulations." Gemma said hugging Happy. "I think you have the strongest girl around and you'll need it."
Kerry looked to Happy and he frowned.
"I'll tell you later."
Lyla came rushing over and hugged her followed by Tara who was holding Abel's hand.
"Kewie, why you marry him?" He asked as Kerry smirked.
"Little man, you still trying to steal my girl?" Happy asked kneeling down as Abel pouted a bit.
"I marry her!" He said with a foot stomp. Gemma chuckled. Abel gave Happy a glare and walked over to Jax who scooped him up.
"I never thought I'd see the day! The Killer is settling down!" Tig said slapping Happy's back. "You know what your getting with him right?" Tig asked as Kerry grinned.
"Yup." She said hugging Happy and giving him a kiss.
Kerry was glad to see Mary hang around and the crow eaters weren't openly performing any sexual acts. Kerry went to get a drink and nudged Chibs who was watching Mary talk to Tara.
"Go talk to her." Kerry said sipping her beer.
"No, she doesn't want this. I'm old enough to be her dad and-"
"No, your not. Why don't I help you out?"
"I-I don't know."
"Come on, just a basic conversation." Kerry didn't wait for Chibs to answer and went off to find Mary.
A few minutes later Happy came over grabbing a beer.
"Come on, I guess we're summoned to play pool."
"You got dragged into this too?"
Happy didn't answer and as they approached the table Kerry announced that she and Mary would be a team.
"Oh you better watch out little girl." Happy said as Kerry smirked. Mary looked away her cheeks flushed.
"So Chibs, what's your opinion on True Blood?" Kerry asked as Happy chuckled. "Come on, Hap. This is an important topic. I like the show and the books. Mary just likes the books, she thinks the show is too much."
"I haven't seen it."
"Your not missing anything."
"The books are better, the show has already changed a lot and most people are watching the shows because of the Swede-"
"Wait, whose the Swede?" Happy asked as Kerry started laughing.
"Alexander Skarsgard, that's the reason she watches the show." Kerry's jaw dropped.
"No, it's not."
"So what's this show about?" Chibs asked as Happy pulled Kerry to the side and they were whispering back and forth.
"It's about a telepath and her vampire boyfriend. There are a few other vampires and some werewolves and stuff."
Mary turned to see Happy and Kerry going off together, she was laughing.
"They are intense." Mary said putting down the pool stick since they never even started playing.
"Oh yea. It was nice of you and Gemma to do this for them."
"Kerry has become like a sister to me. I'm glad this isn't as wild as the last party I was here for. I was never into the parties and such like Kerry was. It's funny how we talk about high school because we each had completely different experiences at the same place."
"It was a private school?"
"Yes, a Catholic school."
Chibs noticed a few of the rowdier crow eaters doing shots.
"I think it's going to get wild soon." Chibs said tilting his head in the direction of the bar. Mary glanced at her watch.
"Thanks for that. It's getting late so I should be heading back to Stockton. Will you let Kerry know?"
"I will, I'll walk you to your car."
"What's your real name? If you don't mind me asking."
"Filip."
Mary smiled.
"I like that better then Chibs." The walk to the car was silent. "Thank you, Filip." Mary said opening her car door.
"Night Mary." He said walking away quickly.
"Where are they? We were going to say good night." Tara asked Chibs.
"I think they're in his dorm. I'm already passing along a message for Mary I can let them know."
"Thanks, Chibs." Tara said as Jax helped her out to the car with the kids. The party was starting to get crazy when Kerry and Happy finally emerged from his dorm.
"I knew it! You two are so fucking crazy!" Tig said loudly as he chased after a crow eater.
"Mary went home, she said good night. That was like almost 2 hours ago. Tara went home with the kids and said good night. I feel like your darn secretary." Chibs said sipping his beer.
"How did it go? Did you two talk?" Kerry asked.
"For a bit."
"That's good. I'm glad."
"Come on, let's go home. You have work in the morning and then we're going over mom's house."
"Night, Chibs!" Kerry said before going to find Gemma to thank her again.
Monday afternoon Kerry and Happy had dinner with Helen and Harriet. Happy insisted it be take out since they were out late the night before. Helen and Harriet were the first to ask about a date.
"When do you think?" Happy asked as Kerry shrugged.
"We are looking at getting a new place so let's see how that goes and we'll think about a date." Happy said hoping that would be enough for his mom.
"Kerry, how are you feeling?"
"Good, much better then a few weeks ago. I wasn't expecting the recovery to be so long."
"Whenever you two start planning let us know and we can help." Helen said as Kerry smiled.
"Of course."
Happy was planning on going to Kerry's appointment on Wednesday but club business kept him, he was sent up to Tacoma to settle some business regarding the Cartel.
Doctor Winters went over Kerry's charts and Doctor Richards notes from their visit. Kerry had been right about the timing of the injection. The doctor said it would take a few months for Kerry to get on a possible regular cycle since she had been on birth control almost half of her life. After setting up a visit in 3 months Kerry went home and started looking over the additional information she was given.
When Kerry arrived home Kozik was waiting for her.
"Security or just a check up?" Kerry asked unlocking the door.
"A little bit of both. Hap got sent up to Tacoma for some business. He asked me to crash here on the couch at night and check in with you a few times a day."
Kerry handed Kozik her burner cell.
"I'll make dinner and leave a plate in the fridge. Do you still have the spare key?" Kozik nodded.
"Everything good with you? Do you have everything you need?"
"Yes, I went food shopping yesterday. Should I stay in Charming?"
"I think that would be best."
Happy was gone for 10 days, during that time Kerry got a box full of wedding magazines from Kathryn as well as a wedding planning binder from Mary.
