Seventy Times 7
It had been almost a week since SAMCRO had landed in Ireland. They were no closer to finding Abel. The twins sat joking with Juice and Jax in the club house when Jude got a text from their mother. He looked at it concerned then showed James. Basically ignoring everyone else at the table. "That doesn't sound like 'er at all." James muttered rubbing the back of his neck and standing.
Jude nodded in agreement standing with his looked at Jax and nodded towards the door. Both the boys left the room calmly. Jax had spent an increasing amount of time with his nephews they were both so laid back and calm they made him feel calm. But Jax was also very wary of them.
Their father made it clear who he was, loved his title. These boys didn't seem like the boasting type.
He never knew where he stood with them. Jax followed the boys to bikes. They tied black bandanna's just under their eyes to hide their faces. James flipped his cap backwards so the head band faced front. He started his bike letting it idle. Jude pulled his hood over his head and looked at his brother. Jax nodded to Happy who came out of the clubhouse looking for Jax. Happy came up to him. His eyes on his boys. "Going to visit Lillie." Jax said simply. Happy nodded and got on his bike as did Juice.
The twins took off speeding down the small streets. It was a short drive but they doubled back and parked a block from the street. The men convened at the front door. "Priest's car is here." Jude murmured to James who, nodded he had noticed it as well. "Just his though. Don't see anyone else." James reported back to his brother. He turned to Jackson who was more than fucking confused. He noticed the boys putting silencers on their guns. "What the fuck is going on?" Jackson asked confused. "We don't know." Jude said his eyes full of worry.
James opened the door and herd metal being played. He faintly heard his mother. They filed into the house careful not to make any noise. The twins stepped carefully towards their mother's voice. "What the fuck Kellen? When the fuck did you start doing this?" Her voice was a mix of sadness and anger. The boys inched back pulling the makeshift masks down their necks. James lit a cigarette. "She brought work home." He said a little ruefully. Jude nodded looking at the men before him for an answer. "What do you mean brought work home?" Jackson asked looking at his Charming brothers then to his nephews.
James chuckled exhaling smoke. "She's a mercenary. Sometimes does a favor or two for the cause." Jude took a hit from James's cigarette. "Always thought the priest was a little sweet on her." James knocked into Jude's shoulder, "Maybe that's why he's letting us go stateside?" He asked raising his eyebrows." Jackson's mind was completely blown away. He had so many questions. The boys turned and sauntered down the stairs. The SAMCRO brothers stood in the small kitchen. They listened to the music playing, it was Mister Wives, Oh Love It was Indie Pop. As the song ended another from the same group started playing. Seriously, what the fuck was going on?
"WE DON'T DEAL IN KIDNAPPING BABES." Jackson heard and his heart started the hell was going on? James came up the stairs his face white despite his dark complexion. Jude was right behind him. He shoved a baby into Jackson's arms and followed his brother. "I think you think you're too close to god priest." Lillie said softly Jackson looked down at the baby he was holding and he almost dropped it. It was Able. He felt like he was going to faint. He the faint sound of gun shots and Happy pushed past them down the stairs to Lillie. Why was the Able here? Really, what in the actual fuck was going on? "Jackson you need to leave." He looked to see a pair of familiar green eyes. It was Jude.
"You can't go back to the club house. McGee is working with Jimmy O, go here." Jude gave him an address." Never mind, we'll take you there and keep you safe." Jax nodded completely lost. He felt like some dumb bitch just nodding and following orders. Jude ushered Jax to a small compact car. Both got in. Jax held his son tightly to him. Able was his only comfort at that time. He kissed his sons head. James and Juice backed out on their bikes and waited for the car to back out of the spot. Once it did James moved in front of the car and showed them the way to their safe house. While Juice stayed behind the car.
Happy rushed down the stairs to see Lillie with a gun in her hand. She was standing in front of someone. He came down the last few steps, The priest was still alive. Tied to a chair. Happy looked sideways at Lillie. She didn't even register he was there. The priest moaned slightly Lillie shot him again. A small smiled played on her lips. She sat down on the priests lap. "Just kill me." He begged looking imploringly to Happy. Lillie chuckled tapping the barrel of her gun against Kellen's cheek. "Oh ho my sweet, you don't get to leave this world that easy. You took my nephew. Your man is responsible for my mother going to prison. Pushing more guns on SAMCRO. Your man Zoebell," Lillie paused taking a deep breath.
"That man, had my mother gang raped. multiple times, in one sitting. Did you know that Kellen? My mother raped." She poked a gloved finger into a a wound in his shoulder. "I see you're crying, and scared do you think that's how my mother felt when she was being assaulted?" She paused looking at the man, waiting for an answer. She shoved her finger deeper into his wound. "I DON'T KNOW." the man cried out. "Hhhhmmm, me either. Did you know he did it Just to send a fucking message to my father? To the MC? Do you know the kind of rift that caused the Mc? Could you imagine if something like that would happen to Mo' or Trinny?" Happy's heart dropped to the pit of his stomach and the priest retched.
"Don't." He begged crying more. "See where your actions have taken you?" She stood in front of the bawling man her forehead pressed against the mans. "You Pushed my father to do things he should have never had to do. You don't know the damage you have created. Don't even get me started on what this has done to my brother." She whispered to him."They are innocent!" Lillie pulled back confused for a second. Happy watched her work and he was so turned on. He wanted to take her right there. He leaned against the wall watching Lillie.
"Are they though?" She asked playfully figuring he meant his sister and niece. She stood back to think. "I mean you had Mo' watch Able and my brother didn't know she'd seen the babe. How is that innocent?" Kellen blubbered. "Tell me, Kellen how is that innocent?" Her voice hardened and she shot him again.
She sighed her head resting against his, Lillie kicked her feet a bit before getting off of his lap. Was it wrong that Happy was so turned on right now. Kinda fucked up right? "Anything for the cause. Right?" She popped her hip out. "Please don't hurt them." Lillie smiled tapping her foot to the song Failure By Design by Brand New had started playing. "I like this song you know. How fitting that it plays now."
She started humming and got out a knife. She sat on the Priests lap straddling him. She studied his face in a single move she cut him from his cheek to his ear. He started screaming Lillie sighed audibly and stuffed a rag into his mouth. She did the same thing to the other side of his face then began cleaning the priests wounds.
That's what Happy thought she was doing until he saw her dip the cloth she had been using in bleach."Promise me you won't hurt them." Lillie "Oh Kel, No." She was done cleaning out the wounds she just poured bleach over him. "I'll let Mo' an Trinny you said hi." Lille said and with that she shot the priest in the throat and in the head. Miss You by blink-182
Lillie took her gloves off with a snap and made a call to some cleaners she knew. "Yeah how soon can you be here? Yeah I know but I'm Lazy." She chuckled swaying a bit to the song. "How much more to pack up the house? And that includes shipping it, right?" Happy came behind her wrapping his arms around her middle and kissed her neck. She caressed his neck "Oh okay. Yeah I'll miss you too. See you soon." She hung up and turned around and kissed Happy pulling him to her by his shirt. He Picked her up "Let's get cleaned up. Little girl"
A couple hours later Lillie was sitting on her back porch on her burner talking to the cleaner she had called earlier. "You really are the best. I'm sorry I can't be there." She smiled blowing out smoke from her nose. She smiled and hung up. Her hands were acting up again. She tried to stretch them out but to no avail. "We need to talk." Jackson said quietly. She knew he was tired and angry among the other emotions he must be feeling.
She nodded dropping dropping her cigarette and stomping it out. She looked up at her brother and hugged him. He held her to him and swayed a bit. She rubbed his back he cried into her hair. "Oh Jackson." Lillie rocked him holding him tight. He picked her up. "Peanut, thank you." She squeezed him.
He set her down and she wiped the tears from his cheeks. They walked into the house. Clay had been pacing since he got there. "You need to sit down and talk." He said pointing at his daughter. She nodded and sat at the kitchen table. "First why was the priest bringing Abel to you?" Lillie sat back in her chair and studied her father.
"Wanted me to take him away and raise him." "Why?" "Kellen was going to sell Abel into adoption and thought better of it." "Why you?" "he liked me." "The twins said you are a mercenary? Who do you work for?" Lillie nodded. "I work for myself get a call and finish the job. The kings like my work and trust me. That's how I got so close to Kellen. When I first got here I I did for a time for exclusively work for them. But I started branching out to other resistances. I didn't know it was Abel he was bringing to me. Kellen would bring me some of the kids that Jimmy O would take in and I would care for them. I met the Kings by the way of Maeve Rielly. She introduced us. Maeve really helped me out, her family became a second family to mine."
Clay studied his little girl impressed but he wasn't going to let her know that. He nodded taking the information in. Lillie lit a cigarette and sipped her tea. "How did you know about what happened to you mother, or everything that has been going on in with the club?"Lillie scoffed crossing her arms over her chest. "Whores talk daddy." Clay bristled. Lillie held up her hand to stop him. "I just found out, about momma I mean. But girls talk. Men talk to the girls the girls tell someone else and there you go." I wasn't going any further than that. "And the Priest?" Lillie sat forward tapping the excess ash off into the ash tray in front of her. "Needed to be done. Kings thought he was getting to.." She looked around for the right words. "Too godly for his own good." She finally said.
Clay smiled. She wanted to tell him to get out of guns, she wanted to say getting mixed up with the cartel was a terrible idea that would bring the feds right to there door. But she knew her father as loving as the man was he was incredibly suspicious he left his thoughts fester and darken his mind to where he thought everyone was against him. So she kept her mouth shut and smiled back at her father. He stood up. "I want you to take your mother, the boys and Abel stateside. Happy will take you to the airport." He said and left. I leaned back in my chair flicking more ash off my cigarette.
I stood up stubbing my cigarette out and finishing the last of my tea. Happy came in and kinda blocked the door. "What are you up to?" I asked casually raising an eyebrow at him. I leaned against the opposite wall under the open window. I saw smiled at him and stretched a little my shirt exposing my stomach. I watched Happy's eyes travel to the exposed skin. He flipped the tooth pick in his mouth to the other side.
I had a hand on the window sill still watching Happy as quickly as i could I pushed myself up and out the window. I ran to the bikes and took James's It roared into life and I took off towards home. Like hell was i just going to leave. Fuck that. I pulled my hood up and weaved through the streets.
Happy blinked, she was gone. What the fuck. He heard a bike start and take off. God damn it. The door opened and Clay glowered at him. "Go." Is all Clay said. Happy trudged past him and the twins who were laughing . "She'll be at the house." James called after Happy.
Lillie got to the house just as the movers were finishing up. The cleaner, Tommy, was sitting on the front porch smoking . "Surprised to see you here." Lillie nodded and kissed his cheek. "Stuff came up." Shea tad bit felt sad seeing the house almost packed. All of her memories were gone.
He came up behind her and slipped his hands to her waist. "Going to be slow around here with out you, Lillie." She smirked and stepped out of his grasp. "I bet. You might have to pick up a second job." She joked walking up the stairs. Lillie checked each room as she got to the second floor. She heard Tommy leave as she closed her bedroom door. her room had been mostly packed up as well. . She smiled looking around the small room. Lillie grabbed a bag and started folding clothes into it. She was sweating like a whore in church and decided to get a shower.
Happy turned his bike off and stomped into Lillie's house slamming the door behind him. How fucking old was she? Can't listen to one god damn order? he stomped up the stairs and flung open the door to her room. He stomped over to her and grabbed her arm spinning her around to face him. "Next fucking time." He stopped talking as he looked down her body. She wasn't wearing anything besides his ring that was on a chain around her neck. She smirked "You were saying?" his eyes narrowed. "You're an evil bitch."
An hour later Lillie was straddling Happy moaning when the front door slammed shut. "WHERE THE FUCK IS SHE?" Clay bellowed. It was then Happy remembered He was supposed to bring her back to the safe house. "Happy, hurry up." Lillie half moaned biting her lip. He sat up and pulled her down on him fully. She squeaked . They heard Clay and the others going through the house looking for them.
. "Cum, Happy." Lillie hissed. Happy pressed her against the bedroom "You." He growled. Happy really couldn't take it anymore but he wasn't about give in to her and let her win. "He's right There." She moaned through the sentence. Lillie's fingers dug into his shoulders. There was pounding on the door behind them catching both off guard. Lillie sagged against. Happy groaned and set Lille down. The pair were breathing hard. Lillie took a step her legs were wobbly she stumbled throwing Happy his clothes as she precariously teetered to the bathroom. The shower turned on and Happy opened the door fully dressed.
A few minutes later Lillie came down the stairs carrying multiple bags and a huge smiled on her face. Gemma looked up seeing her daughter then saw Happy coming down after her carrying some bags. They both looked very pleased with themselves. "You two are fucking idiots." Gemma said holding Abel to her, kissing his head. They baby laughed and cooed. Clay entered the room just as Lillie glanced over at Happy who had been watching her. His eyes were dark and searching the woman's face, Lillie gave him a smug smile and winked back at Happy.
"FUCKING MOVE IT." Clay roared. He turned to Lillie "I've had enough of your shit for one day, Lillie." Lillie nodded feeling like a child. She moved past her father sneaking a quick glance at Happy. "Move." Clay steered his daughter out of the house to the a van. Happy came out as did Opie and both helped Lillie pack the car. Happy went to get in the drivers side but Clay stopped him. "NO. No. You're staying here. Opie you go back with them. Make sure she stays out of trouble."
Clay said pointing to Lillie. She hugged her father and kissed Happy. Gemma who was holding Abel got in the van along with the twins. Opie climbed in to the drivers side. Lillie went to get in and Happy pulled her to him and kissed the freaking crap out of her.
"We need to have a chat, brother." Clay said to Happy heading back into the house. After the van left. Happy followed him in seeing all of his brothers staring at him. "Stop fucking my sister." Jax said "None of your business who I fuck." "True. but it is when its my sister." "She's a big girl." At this point they were nose to nose. "I don't wan't you around her. " "Hey I forgot my purse." Lillie said stumbling in with James and Jude. Clay glowered at her. Lillie smiled at him then stopped seeing Jax and Happy.
Her smile faltered looking around at the room. James nudged her Lillie shook her head and went to the kitchen rummaging for something. The twins did the same thing. Jax and Happy continued their stare off. "You came back for weed?" Juice asked loudly watching Lillie grabbing her stash. The group swiveled to look at the trio who all had stopped in their tracks. Lillie punched Juice hard in the shoulder. He crumpled holding the spot. " Among other things but I don't fly well." She explained backing up from father.
Just then her phone started ringing she dropped what she had in her duffel and answered her phone walking into the back yard. Jax had stepped back from Happy to watch his sister. The twins went around searched for whatever they were looking for; Lillie ran through the house ushering her boys out and gave them her bag. She handed her father the phone. "But we didn't get it all." James protested.
Lillie shook her head She kissed James on the head and pushed him outside tugging Jude with her. The group watched as Lillie shoved the boys into the van. She walked into the house as the van drove off. "What the fuck Lillie?" Jax asked getting in her way. Lillie side stepped him beginning to braid her hair. She looked to her dad who was holding the phone out to her. Lillie took the phone and walked outside still braiding her hair.
"What the fuck is going on?" Jax said looking at his step father. Clay ran his hands through his hair. He was shaking with rage. He was trying to calm down. He Hated not being in charge. He hated being delegated to. He blew out a long low breath. "The Kings are coming to see your sister off." Clay growled. Jax's mouth dropped open he looked around, almost to see as if he was being punk'd.
Lillie rolled a joint and waited for the kings. She told her father where they could find the extra guns, if they thought they needed them Lillie pulled her sweatshirt off and straightened herself out. She knew her father was angry with her but this her life. They walked into it. She wish he would lighten up.
Jax sat down beside her and stared at her. "You're staring." She said after a while. He shook his head."How deep are you?" Lillie smiled looking at him fully she lit the joint and inhaled. "Jealous?" She she asked jokingly and handed the joint to her brother.
"I'm not Jax. They wanted to talk. They know I'm out." Jax accepted the joint and watched his sister. "Out for good or til you get to get back home?" Lillie shrugged "Little bit of both." Happy came out just then and lit a cigarette. As soon as Lillie saw him she smiled. Lillie took the joint back from Jax and went to stand beside Happy.
Happy bent to kiss Lillie who, wrapped her arms around his neck and kissed his bottom lip. She took a long drag from the joint and blew a little bit in Happy's face. He smiled kissing her again inhaling the smoke. Lillie stood on her tip toes and deepened the kiss, her tongue flicking across his bottom lip.
She pulled away and hugged Happy, who took the opportunity look smugly up at Jax who was fuming. He glowered at Happy. Lillie walked over to Jax, handed him what was left of the joint and looked at her phone. She frowned a little before slipping it back into her pocket. Happy went back inside trying something to do.
How long have you and Happy been together?" Lillie cocked an eyebrow at her bother "What business is that of yours?" "You sound like him." "He sounds like me." Jax chuckled. "Do you love him?" She nodded. "How do you know for sure? Its a week and you aren't even back in Charming. What's going to happen when shit goes south like it always does?
"Do you realize how serious this is?"She to look at him fully. "For the club or me?" Jax smiled "This moment is a serious one. The position you are putting yourself with Clay is serious." Jax gave her back the joint. "Clay never fully trusted me to begin with." Lillie offered taking another hit. "Who would?" Lillie laughed at Jax's response. Lillie looked up seeing cars approaching the house.
"Get dad." Lillie said standing up. Jax nodded and went to get Clay and the rest of the club who were still in the house. Lillie leaned against the porch rail waiting for the cars to park. Clay stood beside her, his hand on her shoulder. The rest of the club filed out behind him. The cars parked and a van pulled up behind the car. Lillie's heart started racing.
She thought it was funny that Jax seemed to think she was so relaxed about this is she was beyond nervous. Lillie didn't know why the Kings wanted to meet. Or what was about down. She wasn't exactly sure if anyone them would walk out of here alive. One by one men started exiting the car and the van. Lillie walked off the porch to greet them.
Brendan Roarke, Peter Dooley, Declan Brogan, and Galen O'Shay. The Kings, true IRA stood shoulder to shoulder in front of Lillie. "Boys" Lillie said putting on a brave smile as she shook hands with each of them. The men broke into smiles at the greeting. "Love, we wanted to give you something as a birthday present and as a thank you for getting rid of our little problem." Brendan said looking over her shoulder to the group of men watching from the porch.
Lillie shrugged looking up at Brendan. "There was no need for you to do that, Brendan." She said quietly looking at the other Kings, who smiled at her glance. He shook his head in protest. holding her hands in his. "Yes, it is." He said sternly looking down at the beautiful woman in front of him. Given the chance he would have bedded her in a heartbeat. But she was married but most importantly he didn't want to mix his personal life with his business.
"Is that the boys Da?" Declan interjected nodding at Happy. Lillie blushed and smiled. "How could you tell, Declan?" He chuckled shaking his head. "Damn near carbon copies." Lillie relaxed a bit more. "That's how it goes right? I carry them for nine months, they enter this world looking exactly like their da." The men chuckled in response, agreeing with her.
"Would you like to come in for some tea?" Lillie asked looking around at the men. They looked tempted but Brendan shook his head. "No. We need to get this done and move on to..other matters." Lillie wasn't sure what was about to happen. "Well, lets finish this then." Brendan nodded to the van and the doors slid open and a man fell out with a bag on his head.
Lillie backed away from Brendan. "What is going on Brendan? Who is this?" She asked as the man was set in front of her. Peter pulled the bag off the mans head and Lillie glowered. "This isn't funny." Lillie said staring at Jimmy O'Phelan. "Not a joke." Galen said crossing his arms over his chest. "Why'd you bring him here?" Lillie asked copying his movement. Galen shrugged "Thought you could have some fun with him. " Lillie cracked a smile. "You're too good to me." Galen laughed.
"We need you to do something for us." Brendan said nodding to Clay to come over. He came over and his brothers followed. "We want Lillie to be our point of contact when we deal guns with you." Brendan said. Lillie hissed her hands balled up in to fists. "Brendan." "Shut up Lillie." Clay ordered. Peter, Galen, Brendan, and Declan all glared at Clay. "You're not to talk to her like that again." Declan said stepping forward to Clay.
Declan was the youngest of the Kings, he was a little older than Jax. He was a big man who wasn't half bad to liked Lillie and was very protective of her. He thought of her as a sister he never had. "Declan will leave with you, show you what to do then leave til we find someone within our ranks to fill your spot." Brendan said getting in the car. "We'll be in touch." He called to Lillie as she walked away from him. She pushed past the men into her house.
She grabbed her bag and went into the bathroom slamming the door and locking it. Lillie retched into the toilet. Fucking fuck fuckshit. This is the last fucking thing she wanted to be involved in. God dang it. This was just.. it was all fucked. Never did she ever imagine...How the fuck was she going to get out of this?
What was she going to tell the boys? She hung her head in the toilet. Here she was all excited to go home she should have anticipated something like this. Why the fuck did they give her Jimmy O? She had no dealings with him. Lillie rinsed her mouth out and leaned against the door. She sat enjoying the silence. She decided it was time to got so she got up and made her way outside.
Lillie pulled her sweatshirt over her head and headed towards the bikes. She also pulled out her ipod and turned it on, she put the ear buds in her ears, and pulled out a bandanna she used to cover her face when she rode. Lillie tied it around her face and got on James's bike. She started it and backed out of the driveway. She waited for a car to pass before pulling out on the road. She was well aware that someone was trying to get her attention but all Lillie wanted right now was to be left alone. Lillie rode off towards the air plane hanger.
Clay watched his daughter leave unsure how he felt about what had just happened. He decided the best thing to do was to give Lillie space before talking about any of this again. He turned to the men. With the Kings gift of jimmy o they were able to go home sooner. Clay had set everything in motion, he got his brothers moving so they could gather their things at the club house and talk to McGee. He motioned to Happy who was staring after Lillie. Clay ordered that no one follow her. After that he had told Happy to keep an eye out for her once they landed in Charming.
Few hours later
I haven't talked much to anyone since the meeting with the Kings. I'm fucking furious that I was in this situation. Happy had been trying to catch my eye and it was getting on my nerves. We were stuck on this god damn plane for the next couple hours and I didn't know how I would get out of talking to him or anyone else for that matter.
I grabbed my bag an began rooting through it. I found a baggie and opened it. Fishing out two pills she popped them in her mouth. she Fixed her hood so it covered her face more and leaned her head against Jude's shoulder while linking her arm through James's.
Once the plane landed Jude carried his mother to the Van. Jude looked at Happy frowning. When they got to the club house Lillie was just waking up. There was a party at the club house for the guys return. There were two different charters waiting for them. Happy carried a still groggy Lillie to his room. He laid Lillie down and got in the shower. Ten minutes later Lillie slid in behind him. Her tiny hands on his waist and head pressed against his back.
When he finished washing and rinsing, Happy turned to face Lillie, she side stepped him so that she could fully rinse the soap off of her. Happy's hands slid down her arms to her waist and she stiffened. "Stop." she said and got out. What the fuck was her deal? She looked through the bags and found some clothes. She pulled on panties and put a bra on. "Lillie what's going on?" Happy turned her around and forced her to look up at him.
She shut her eyes tears sliding out of the corners. "I can't be with you if I'm the Kings gun liaison." Happy shook his head. "Don't play with me little girl. Get that fucking thought out of your head now." More tears slid down her cheeks. "Happy, please." He frowned "No." He said resolutely. "Cut your shit. I know you're scared and upset but fucking deal with it. You're not getting out of this. I made a promise and I intend to keep it." Lillie scoffed her nose flaring.
"Like you kept it sixteen years ago right?" She laughed bitterly. "So, you can do it but I can't right? When I have a genuine reason; to keep you safe and the boys safe and the MC." Happy rolled his shoulders. "I'm telling you no." Lillie continued to laugh. "You don't own me." She pushed away from him but he didn't move he just moved closer to her. Picking her hand up to show her the H he tattooed on her ring finger. She glowered. "Fucking hypocrite. How many fucking women did you go through when I was gone? After I left? How many?" Happy almost saw hate in her eyes. "That was different." Happy said quietly.
"That many huh?" "You were gone." He said quietly. "Didn't take long to replace me huh? what was it you used to say? Just another hole to fill? Wasn't that it Happy?" He took a deep breath he was having a hard time not losing his shit. "You were never that. You know that." He gripped her arms. "Must have made you feel so much better, going through all those women after abandoning your family." She sneered. "Shut up Lillie." He said quietly "Upset you can't throw me around like your whores." He snapped. "God damn it, shut the fuck up."
"Get fucking real Happy, it was never going to work out. It was going to happen sooner or later." He glared down at her. He wasn't going to let her go. He had to show her he meant it. Happy picked her so they were at eye level. "Put me down." She looked away from him. "Look at me." She looked further away. "Tell me you don't love me. I'll leave you alone forever." He pressed her against the wall. Lillie squirmed in his grasp even if he dropped her, she didn't care she just wanted to get away.
"Put me down." She growled staring at the window. "Say it." He insisted. "You're hurting me." Happy rolled his eyes. "No I''m not." He kissed her neck. "Tell me you don't love me." He said between kisses. She faltered for a second. Happy felt her relax and he went with it. He set her down and pinned her arms to the wall. She pushed away from him. "Get off me." She snarled. Happy kissed her on the lips. His hands sliding to her neck and waist. "I love you Lillie Lowman." She almost smile at him using her married name but instead she punched him. "Fuck you." She spat.
Lillie gathered her the clothes she was going to wear and stomped into the bathroom, slamming the door. She'll show him. Fuck that guy. Yeah, fuck him, seriously. She got dressed in a skin tight, short, black dress. It had a sweetheart neckline and cap sleeves. The back was buttoned at the base of the neck covering the top of her back and shoulders but the rest of the dress was backless just barely covering her lower back; it showed off her back piece perfectly. The back was the only reason she had bought the dress in the first place.
Lillie loosely curled her hair pulling it to the side so it cascaded down her front and not her back. She added mascara that made her lashes look a million miles long and her eyes bigger. She pulled the chain from around the neck and set it on a shelf to clean it. She put winged eyeliner and on red lipstick. Lillie smiled at her reflection in the mirror. Lillie slipped into black velvet four inch heels and mad her way to the bar room.
Lillie looked for her sons as soon as she entered the room. So far she didn't see them. Lillie walked over to the bar; leaning against it she ordered a shot of tequila. She heard a low whistle and felt someone put their hand on her lower back, just where the dress ended. She knew it wasn't Happy. Lillie accepted the shot.
"Where have you been my whole life?" Lillie smiled knowing the voice instantly she downed the shot and turned slowly to face him. "Here and there baby." She placed her hand on his chest and looked up at him. "Fucking shit, Lillie! Fuck." Kozik exclaimed picking her up and squeezing the shit out of her. Lillie laughed hugging him tighter. "You sure as fuck grew up." Lillie smiled. "That tends to happen here and there."
Kozik wrapped and arm around her shoulders. "Fucking right." Lillie smiled looking up at him. "Have you seen my boys? They make me so proud."Lillie said looking around him. Her heart stopped. She saw her boys and Happy, the boys a whore in their lap there was a whore touching, leaning on Happy. Some one pushed past her Lillie turned to look; It was a fucking crow eater. With out a second thought Lillie grabbed her by her hair and smashed the whores face into the edge of the bar. Happy, Jude, and James looked up as someone started screaming. They saw Lillie break a shot glass on the girls face. She was staring at the trio. "Oh fuck." James muttered feeling a bit sick.
The last couple days his mom was slowly losing it. He wanted to tell her that he was enjoying the attention. He wasn't going to do anything with the girl. Lillie looked down at the girl crumpled in a ball as her feet. "Shut the fuck up and don't ever touch me or let me catch you near my boys." Lillie whispered to the girl pointing in the twins and Happy's direction. The men saw her point at them and then kiss the girl on the head. Jude shuddered. His mother scared the fucking shit out of him when she was upset.
Lillie stepped over the girl cried that Lillie was some fucking psycho. Lillie grabbed a bottle of tequila and headed outside. Lillie walked up to the group of men sitting around the picnic and smiled. "Any of you have a lighter?" The men looked in her direction and their mouths dropped. "Baby girl." Tig purred wrapping an arm around her. She leaned into him and smiled. "I do." A big man from the back of the group said stepping forward. He was huge, bigger than Happy in height and in width.
Lillie grinned up at the man as he placed the lighter in her hand. "Names' Rane Quinn, President of the Nomads." She pulled out a joint from behind her ear and lit it. Lillie's smile grew bigger and shook the hand extended to her. Most of the men had gone back inside at this point. Leaving just Lillie and Quinn. Lillie had caught them as they were about to leave.
"Everyone calls me Quinn though." Quinn offered. Lillie Inhaled letting the taste wash over her. She offered the joint to Quinn. Lillie looked up at the man her head tilted sideways smiling. "I'm probably just going to call you Rane." Quinn smiled shaking his head.
Tig stopped as he pulled open the clubhouse doors, he looked over his shoulder worried about his god daughter. She had a rough couple of days. He and everyone else in the club house had heard Hers and Happy's screaming match earlier. He shook his head as she laughed loudly at something Quinn had said. Tig headed inside to find Happy.
Quinn had a soft spot for red heads and the one in front of him was driving him wild. Sure she was short as fuck but god damn she was gorgeous. Those big green eyes smiling at him, The freckles that peppered her face, slender neck... "You Lowman's girl?" The question caught Lillie off guard. Was she? What were they?
She frowned and looked away from him. Lillie shrugged not giving him an answer. "I've been looking all over for you!" Lillie turned to see Donna and her god babies coming towards her followed by Happy and Opie. "God damn." Lillie sighed handing the joint to Quinn who finished it and got up. He smiled at what she had muttered.
Lillie plastered a smile to her face and hugged her best friend. Lillie bent down hugging her god babies. Quinn stared at her ass until Happy stood in front of him. The kids went to play on the swings and Lillie stood up and smiled at Donna. The women sat down at the picnic table.
"Lillie whats wrong?" Donna asked concerned that her usually rather talkative friend was silent. "I'm a bit high and tired and I'm thinking about work." Donna shook her head smiling; she didn't smoke anymore because of the kids and the only person she would usually smoke with was Lillie. "How do you have any work? You just got here." Lillie laughed a bit. "Something I was grandfathered into before I left Ireland." Donna sighed a little envious of her friend.
"You don't sound to excited about it." Lillie shook her head "I'm not." Donna's face fell. She got up and led the other woman away into the club house. Lillie followed after her friend, not really noticing that she had left her heels under the picnic table.
"Meet me in my old room. I need to change." Lillie said. She needed to get out of this dress she felt like her heart would explode if she didn't. Donna nodded and made her way to the room. Lillie barely shut the door in her hurry to get out of the dress. Once she got it off she threw it away from her. She grabbed frayed cut off shorts a crop top and a over sized flannel shirt. Lillie took the pins out of her hair and quickly fishtail braided her hair. On her way out Lillie grabbed her purse making sure it had her goodie bag in it before going to her old room.
Lillie walked in seeing Donna sitting against the bed with her shoes off. She had the radio on and was bobbing her head to the music. Lillie gave her a true smile and sat down beside her best friend. "Tell me what's going on." Lillie nodded and started rolling a joint. She had become pretty dependent on getting high since Happy came back into her life. She had to so she could focus on her work.
"Happy wants to be together. We fucked the entire time in Ireland and it was amazing. But it'll be different here. There's runs he has to go on and those stupid ass rules and the girls here... I want to be with him but its all so fast. Part of me likes it but the other part just wants to take it slow. There's another part of me that just says fuck him go fuck someone else. Because I've only ever been with him. It felt so wrong the other opportunities I had. I always hoped Happy would come striding in proclaiming his love for me and how he wanted me to have his crow but those moments never happened. So here I am battling with myself, knowing he's plowed his way through who knows how many women and I am so attracted to Quinn and I don't know what to do Donna."
Lillie finished the rolling the first joint and started on another. By the time she had finished telling Donna what was wrong she had three other joints rolled. "You want his crow?" Donna asked kinda blown away by all that Lillie had unloaded on her. "If hes going to fuck me and get pissy about me talking... I" Lillie shrugged at the last bit of weed she had. She opened her goodie bag and brought out a bag of white powder. "Glad to see somethings haven't changed." Donna said with some disdain in her voice.
Lillie frowned some more sprinkling the powder into joints, she rolled them up and stuck them in her bag for later. When she was done doing that, Lillie handed Donna the clean joints and turned to her friend. Only since I heard he was coming back and this past week. "You need to tell him what's going on in that head of yours." Lillie shook her head. "I get so caught up in him..It start feeling so great then I think everything is better." Donna hugged her friend. "Come on lets go have some fun." Donna said pulling her friend up and dragging her to the bar.
Donna hopped on to a bar stool and pulled Lillie into the one beside her. "What are you drinking?" Kozik asked leaning over the bar. "T-E-Q-U-I-L-A." Donna spelled out to him. Kozik stared at Donna before shaking his head. "Don't spell at me." Lillie cracked up holding her head in her hands, Donna giggled and pointed to the tequila. Kozik smiled and handed the bottle over and placed three shot glasses down. Donna filled the glasses up and looked to picked up her shot and smiled. "Here's to wisdom." They threw the shots back and Donna refilled them a second time. "Here's to money." they threw the shots back and again Donna refilled them. "Here's to figuring my shit out." Lillie said smiling over her shot at Quinn before she downed it. Donna hooted throwing her shot back.
An hour later Lillie stumbled to the bathroom. It was disgusting but she had to piss. When she was finished She walked down the hallway and passed a dorm when heard Happy talking to someone. She was all fuzzy and buzzed so instead of minding her business forgoing that it could be club related, Lillie peered through the slightly opened door. She didn't understand why she saw Happy with his hands on some girl. Hold the fucking phone, that was the girl who pushed her earlier in the evening. Fucking kidding me?
Lillie slammed the door open startling the pair with all her strength and might Lillie punched Happy in the back of his side right where his kidney was. "FUCK YOU, YOU FUCKING RAT BASTARD! YOU'RE A FUCKING LIAR. FUCK YOU, FUCK YOUR FUCKING, FUCKSHIT RING AND YOUR FUCKING CROW. I AM FUCKING DONE." She took a breath. "Don't come near me or my boys again or I will kill you." Happy cried out when Lillie's fist landed the blow to his back. She threw the reaper ring at the back of his head, running out of the room and back to the ciaos of the party she got to the bar and drank from the bottle of tequila.
There was clapping and shouting, someone clapped her on the back but she shook them off. Lillie grabbed her bag and made her way towards the door. She ran into Someone and mumbled her apology and side stepped who ever it was. She looked up to see Quinn staring down at her with a bemused smile. "Gotta lighter?" Lillie asked smiling up at him. He laughed and nodded placing his hand on her lower back and steering her outside.
She sat on top of the picnic table looking up at Quinn. She lit her doctored joint and inhaled. "How do you feel about MDMA?" Lillie asked looking at the joint then up at Quinn. "Because the rest of my joints have MDMA in them." Quinn took the joint from her and smoked it. He pulled her closer.
"Wanna go somewhere?"Quinn asked Lillie nodded "anywhere but here?" Quinn chuckled and walked to his bike with Lillie in tow. The effects of the alcohol and the previous joints were catching up with Lillie. She giggled watching Quinn get on the bike she settled on behind him.
Lillie didn't know where she was but she was happy. She watched Quinn shut the door she thought they were back at the clubhouse. The room looked familiar. She looked around the room as Quinn undid his boots. "This used to be my old room." Lillie commented. Quin Laid back on the bed.
The shit he had smoked with Lillie was a lot stronger than he expected. "You're not going to sleep on me are you?" Quinn opened his eyes and shook his head. "Good." Lillie said kissing him. Quinn held her to him. Lillie sat on top of him and bit his lip. Lillie slid off of him and stumbled to the bathroom. She was clutching her chest and crumpled into a ball on the floor crying. Quinn jumped off the bed. "Lillie. Fuck. Lillie." Quinn Picked her up even though she cried out and rushed out of the room to the bar room.
The man rushed over to Kozik visibly upset, not to mention high as a fucking kite. "What THE FUCK. QUINN. HAPPY." Kozik called over his shoulder to the angry bald man on the couch. Happy looked up and paled seeing Lillie in Quinn's arms. He stared at the Nomad President; he and Quinn had butted heads the entire time Happy went Nomad. Happy didn't like the man. Having him stand there with his unconscious wife in his arms didn't help the situation. It was clear Quinn was drunk as hell and higher than cloud nine.
"What did you do to her?" Happy lunged at Quinn who took a step back and stumbled dropping Lillie. Happy roared as Lillie cried out curling into a tighter ball. Happy scooped her up holding her tightly to him. She was sweating holding her chest. "Hap, my heart." Lillie whispered and went limp. "Lillie? Lillie! Fuck!"
Happy rushed out of the clubhouse to the truck. Kozik and Quinn followed. "We shared two joints." He paused trying to remember the rest of the evening. "maybe went for a ride on the bike..." He thought that sounded right. "next thing I know she's on the floor crying." Kozik rubbed the back of his neck. "Stay here. Call Clay let him know what's going on. Or we will. Just fucking stay here." Kozik said getting in the drivers side of the truck. Kozik gunned out of the lot.
