Chapter 49 - Perfect Guy
Sutton had woken up from her nap to hear Penelope's laugh, causing her to open her eyes and glance around the room and instantly spotted Happy and Penelope on the floor in front of the bed near the TV playing peek-a-boo with Penelope's blanket.
The brunette smiled seeing the intimidating tattooed man grinning at their daughter as he would drape the blanket over Penelope's head, and then would lift it, causing the little girl to crack up.
"What is daddy doing P?" Sutton questioned, moving out of the bed and headed towards the two sitting on the floor, and sat down next to Happy.
"We're playing peek-a-boo. What's it look like?" Happy joked, causing Sutton to playfully elbow his side, "Think she is still feelin' bad, hasn't left my side since we woke up."
Sutton frowned, and reached to feel Penelope's forehead, and noticed she was a little warm but nothing major, so she decided to push herself up off the ground and head for the bathroom to get Penelope's tylenol. Once Sutton had given Penelope the baby tylenol, she had headed downstairs to fill up her cup, and let Vito outside to use the restroom before heading back upstairs.
"You sleep okay?" Happy questioned, "You were out there for a little bit." Happy added.
"Yeah, slept good." Sutton stated, pushing her dark hair up into a high pony tail, "Now I'm starving though, so if you're wanting me to cook, start deciding on what you want for dinner." Sutton added.
Happy thought for a moment, "Let's just order something. Know you've been craving Indian food again."
Sutton nodded her head, "Sounds good to me. I'll go make something for P to eat in case she doesn't try stealing our food."
Happy got up from the floor to grab his cell phone in order to call in their order and watched as Sutton picked up Penelope to head downstair to start making her something for dinner, and knew that she needed to stop eating take-out so much, so she made a mental note of checking Pinterest out for Indian recipes since she had been craving it for the last few days.
Sutton wasn't surprised to see Vito heading straight for the kitchen, so she had made sure the french bulldog had fresh water and food in his bowls, then spotted Happy carrying the blankets and pillows into the living room, then headed into the kitchen.
"Shouldn't be too long. Convinced the man to deliver." Happy chuckled, causing Sutton to shake her head with a laugh.
"Do they even have a delivery driver?" Sutton questioned, knowing that when they would order Indian food, they usually had to go pick it up.
"Nah, don't think so. The owner remembers us, since you always get the same order. Said he didn't want you getting out." Happy chuckled, "You got a thing going on with the 60 year old man I don't know about?" Happy joked.
"Yes, when I order lunch there, it's just so I can have a quickie with him." Sutton rolled her eyes, and then caught the disgusted look Happy made and busted out laughing, "But really, when I go there to pick up the food, he and his wife are really sweet. They talk to Penelope, and give her a cookie."
"That's nice of them." Happy smiled softly, knowing his daughter was a sweet little girl and would babble anyone's head off if given the chance.
Once Sutton had finished fixing Penelope's dinner, she had decided to feed her in the high chair instead of having to clean up after her in the living room, "We really need to stop eating out so much, I'm going to start looking up recipes online."
"Since when do you like cooking?" Happy chuckled, causing the woman to glare at him as she fed Penelope.
"Figured since I'm not working, I'll toy around in the kitchen. Get this whole house wife thing a try." Sutton joked, causing Happy to think for a moment.
"You want to get married?" Happy questioned, causing Sutton to raise an eyebrow.
"That better not be your way of proposing to me Lowman." Sutton warned, and watched the man shake his head no.
"Nah, not that big of an asshole." Happy chuckled, "Just was curious if you ever want to get married. Don't think we've ever really talked about it." Happy added, giving the woman a moment to think it over.
"Of course I want to get married one day. I just always thought that I'd get married first before having kids." Sutton chuckled, "Seems like we kind of did that backwards. What about you?" Sutton questioned, "I know you haven't really had relationships before me."
"I'd marry you." Happy stated, "Never thought those words would come out of my mouth." Happy laughed, "Never thought I'd be a dad either, but wouldn't change it for the world. Long as I got you, P, and the baby, I'm good."
Sutton smiled tears instantly filling her eyes at Happy's words, "What? What's wrong?" Happy questioned quickly concerned.
"You're so damn sweet." Sutton stated, leaning over to kiss the man, "It's these damn hormones, making me all emotional and shit." Sutton wiped at her cheeks.
Once Penelope was done with her dinner, they had gotten comfortable in the living room with Vito and had put up the baby gates in case Penelope decided to play in the living room while they waited on their food to arrive. Happy knew that Sutton did want to get married, and even though they did things ass backwards, he wanted to spend the rest of his life with her and their children, so he decided that he was going to start ring shopping.

It had been a few days since Sutton had found out that Tara had told Jax about the letters, and things had calmed down once Clay was stripped of the President roll, and she knew things would be kind of hectic for Happy, since the Sons of Anarchy were now trying to get out of the cartel mess Clay had got them involved with, and she completely understood.
Since Happy couldn't make it to the appointment for the baby, Sutton had decided to stop by the club house to let him know how the appointment went since he had told her that she could stop by whenever she was done.
Pulling into the parking lot, Sutton spotted Happy's bike, thankful that she didn't have to wait on the man to arrive, knowing that he had to run a few towns over earlier that morning, and got Penelope out of her car seat.
Once she was had Penelope on her hip, she glanced to the garage to see that the tattooed man wasn't in there working, so she had decided to head to the club house to see if he had went in there.
Walking into the club house, Sutton opened the door, silently praying that there weren't naked woman walking around, so Penelope didn't have to see it. Glancing around the area, the brunette eyes narrowed seeing Happy and Tig standing side by side with three different gashes gushing over something, causing her hormones to get the best of her in that moment.
"Dad-dy!" Happy heard the familiar voice of his daughter, instantly turning around to see Sutton with a furious glare on her face while she was holding their daughter, and realized that she had just mis-read the entire scene.
Happy started to walk towards them, and practically saw the steam coming from Sutton's ears as he approached, "You okay?" Happy questioned carefully, kissing her, and glared at the woman when she turned her face, making him hit her cheek instead of her lips.
"Planning a night of fun or something? That why you couldn't make it to your son's appointment?" Sutton sneered lightly, causing Happy to shake his head in confusion for a split second.
"What? No." Happy stated honestly, "Tig was asking them something, had nothing to do with me." Happy added, "You should know better. We just got back from Oakland a little bit ago, that's why I couldn't make it to our sons appointment Sutton."
Sutton eyed the man carefully, trying to figure out if he was telling the truth or not, "Tig, come here." Happy ordered, not taking his eyes off of Sutton, as he called for his friend.
"Yeah?" Tig questioned, "Hey mama." Tig greeted, kissing Sutton's head, then Penelope's.
"Was I over there trying to get laid?" Happy questioned point blank.
Tig couldn't help the laugh that escaped his mouth, "No, I was asking for their advice. I found a lady who I am thinking of trying to see. Didn't want to screw it up." Tig explained quickly, almost too quickly.
"Whatever." Sutton shook her head, "The appointment went fine. I'm taking our daughter home now." Sutton added, causing the man to glare at her even more, since she was in a mood now, and allowed Happy to kiss Penelope.
"I'll see you in a bit." Happy stated, and growled when Sutton walked out of the club house with Penelope on her hip without a word.
"Man, those hormones are crazy." Tig commented.
"Don't tell her that." Happy shook his head, running a hand over his face, almost in disbelief.

Later that afternoon, once Happy had finished working in the garage at Teller-Morrow, he headed straight home in order to make sure Sutton wasn't still upset thinking that he was cheating on her because that wasn't the case at all.
Once he had arrived in the driveway, and parked the bike, he headed straight inside the home to see Sutton and Penelope sitting by the coffee table, trying to color.
"Hey baby..." Happy stated, catching the brunette's attention for a moment, then caught the attention of the little girl, who dropped her crayon and ran straight for him, "Hey my other baby." Happy chuckled, kissing the little girls cheeks.
"I'll get started on dinner." Sutton stated, but Happy had decided to sit Penelope down on the floor, and stopped the woman.
"I'm not cheating on you." Happy stated, "I wouldn't fuck up what we have. I told you that Sutton."
"Then what the hell were they doing gushing over you?!" Sutton snapped, "You know what, I don't even care. Fix your own damn dinner." Sutton added, storming out of the living room, and headed straight upstairs.
Happy couldn't help but to let out a laugh, knowing that she was going to be fuming over this for the next few days, and then looked to his daughter, "I think mama needs to take a nap, what do you think?" Happy questioned to the little girl, and decided to head to the kitchen to fix her food, and decided to make him and Sutton to eat in the process.
Once he had finished with making them food, he headed upstairs to change Penelope's diaper, and then headed into their bedroom to see Sutton pouting on the bed.
"Babe..." Happy sighed, sitting Penelope down on the bed, allowing the little girl to crawl to her mother, "I swear to you, I haven't cheated on you, hell, I haven't even thought about it." Happy stated, sitting near the woman, "How many times do I got to tell you that you are the one I want to be with?" Happy questioned, not use to seeing Sutton like this since she wasn't too hormonal when she was pregnant with Penelope.
"I..I don't know.." Sutton sighed, wiping her cheeks, "I just...I'm not even that far along and I'm already getting big, and then those chicks prance around half naked...it just, it makes me a little crazy I guess." Sutton explained, "It's just hard to explain."
"Sutton, I love you, I love P, and it's not like I'd throw that way for a hook-up. Besides, in case you haven't noticed I can't keep my hands off you." Happy stated matter of factly, "So stop pouting and come eat dinner." Happy added causing Sutton to smile a little.
Happy was thankful he was able to get Sutton to head downstairs with him and Penelope to eat dinner. He knew that this second pregnancy was definitely a lot different compared to when she had Penelope, and he wasn't sure if he could fully handle the mood swings, but he knew that he wouldn't have it any other way. He felt slightly guilty about somewhat lying to her, but he knew that once he was able to plan everything out accordingly, he hoped that it made up for the small white lie.
