A/N: As usual, I do not own any of the SOA characters that will appear through out this story. Also, thank you for taking the time to read this. It means the world to me.
Also; I did make a mistake on the age that baby Lowman will be when Happy gets out of prison, so she will be eight months, so thank you Phoenix2513 for bringing that to my attention, I tend to get a scattered brain trying to add everything together, so thank you.
Chapter 23 - Perfect Guy
"Damnit..." Happy growled as he tried putting the white crib together as Sutton was going through different wall decorations she had picked up earlier that morning.
"What happened?" Sutton questioned with an amused look on her face causing the tattooed man to glare at her from his spot on the floor.
"This crib is fucking ridiculous." Happy stated matter of factly, "Almost like a damn jail cell." Happy joked, since he had been having trouble putting the crib together.
"Did you read the instructions? That usually helps." Sutton chuckled.
"Yeah smartass. I read the instructions and it makes no fucking sense." Happy growled, getting overly agitated at the task, and watched as the brunette moved towards him and reached for the instructions.
"So you're telling me that you can work on bikes, criminal activies, and everything else but can't put a crib together?" Sutton teased, "I'm kidding..." Sutton stated quickly seeing Happy's dark eyes turn a shade darker, "Why don't you take a break and work on it later?" Sutton suggested.
"Nah, gonna get this shit put together. Just stop distracting me." Happy stated, "Go take a nap or something." Happy waved his hand causing Sutton to laugh and leaned down to kiss his head.
"Fine, I'll go unpack the clothes in the bedroom." Sutton stated, "Try to not break anything please." Sutton added.
"Leave woman." Happy sighed, trying to focus back on the crib, and listened to Sutton's bare feet leaving the room, and then focused on putting the crib together.
Happy was beyond thankful for Sutton's parents and grandparents helping them out as much as they could, but he was silently grateful that they had decided to take a couple of days to travel around California in order to visit a few places they had wanted to see, letting him and Sutton to have some time to themselves. It helped that Kozik and Tig had diverted all of the club issues so he didn't have to worry about anything besides Sutton since most of the men had went to Belfast in order to get Abel back. It had given him slight ease knowing that Sutton's parents were going to be around for the birth of her daughter so Sutton wasn't alone, and knew that she could have Tara to be around as a friend once she was in a better place, which meant when Abel was returned.
Finally, Happy had been able to finish the crib and placed it against the wall where Sutton had wanted and then moved to work on the white changing table that had a few drawers for diapers and wipes, and lotions along with onesies.
"Babe, where are you wanting this shit hung?" Happy hollered to Sutton who was down the hall in their room.
Happy was thankful the changing table took no time at all in putting together, and looked at the different wall decorations that consisted of little sayings in different colored frames, along with a few animal prints.
"What?" Sutton questioned as she walked back into the room.
"Where are you wanting this stuff hung?" Happy questioned, gesturing to the picture frames leaning against the wall.
"I was thinking across the two walls. Maybe over the changing table, some by the chair." Sutton explained, pointing to the opposite side of the room to the white chair she insisted on having, "I don't want anything hanging near her crib. Don't want them to fall into it or anything." Sutton added.
Happy gave a nod, and went to work on hanging the different frames around the room with the help of Sutton, "We going to decide on a name or you going to wait until the last minute?" Happy questioned, "I mean, she gonna have my last name?"
"Of course she is." Sutton chuckled, "I actually thought we could go through the baby name book to decide, but I'm still really liking Penelope." Sutton explained.
"Yeah. It's a good name." Happy gave a nod, "Goes good with Lowman."
"Just have to figure out a middle name, or a first name and use Penelope as her middle." Sutton added as she sat in the chair, "Oh, and I have clothes coming in the mail." Sutton added causing Happy to raise an eyebrow, "I bought them while we were in line at the store earlier. Just basically cute onesies. I'm going to load up on diapers for the first couple of months and wipes, lotion and that junk so I don't run out and have to get out in the middle of the night."
"Good idea. You going to breast feed or formula?"
"Haven't decided yet. Probably will lean towards breast feeding." Sutton explained, "Just depends on the little princess." Sutton added following the man out of the room and headed down stairs and into the living room.
-SOA-
Happy had been laying on the large couch with his head on Sutton's thighs just below her baby bump as she read off names to decide what to call their daughter.
"What about Alexis?" Sutton questioned, chuckling when Happy growled.
"Anything I say you don't agree with." Happy stated a few moments later.
"I liked Penelope, and you're the one who suggested that." Sutton commented as she scanned through the baby name book.
"How about this, since I picked Penelope, you pick the second name." Happy suggested, "That way we both have a name we like, but don't make it something stupid." Happy warned playfully.
Sutton rolled her eyes but agreed, knowing that she would end up picking a name they both agreed on since they had agreed on Penelope.
"Ah-ha!" Sutton stated as she flipped through the book and found a name, "Penelope Kyah Lowman." Sutton explained to Happy letting him think it over for a moment.
Sutton knew that they both wanted a name that stuck out, since they didn't want their daughter to be another Ashley or Brittney in the world, especially in school since those seemed to be the go to names for parents. And, with their names being extremely unique, they wanted to pass it down to their child.
"I like it." Happy gave a nod of approval, "You gonna change your mind?" Happy questioned looking up to Sutton, and then jumped slightly feeling her stomach move under his hand, "The fuck was that?" Happy questioned concerned, causing Sutton to laugh.
"That was your daughter." Sutton stated, "She's been moving around a lot, guess you can finally feel it now."
"Think she likes the name?" Happy questioned and smirked when his daughter kicked again, "I take that as a yes then." Happy chuckled with a smile on his face. He had been getting jealous of the fact that Sutton had been feeling their daughter move around and every time he had tried to get their little girl to kick, she wouldn't budge up until now.
"So, Penelope Kyah Lowman." Sutton looked to Happy for a moment who was mesmerized by her baby bump, and watched his dark eyes land to hers and gave a single nod.
Sutton grinned as Happy crawled beside her, careful to not put pressure on her stomach, and laid his head against her chest, "Can we just stay like this for a bit?" Sutton questioned quietly, wanting to enjoy the little moments of just laying around with the tattooed man.
"Absolutely." Happy rasped lowly, as he found himself closing his eyes, trying to picture what their daughter would look like, and how much he would miss.
A/N: I was going to add more to this, but I wanted to clear up the age of the baby because it was bugging me. So, Penelope Kyah Lowman will be her name. I know that everyone hates the jail time, but don't worry, I will be doing a few time jumps to make it fly by. Also, I am going to take a couple of days to type out some upcoming chapters.
