Chapter 33

After Quinn and Loco had left, Happy had sat out on the patio for about half an hour. He had sat there thinking about what he should say to Dani, about how to approach her, and he was also hoping she was going to come out of her office.

When Dani still hadn't emerged from her office, Happy got up. Enough of sitting here, avoiding the conversation they needed to have anyway. He walked in from the patio, and over to her office. He thought about just opening the door, but she had shut it for a reason, and if a long term relationship was going to happen, he needed to respect boundaries if she set them.

He knocked softly on the door. He heard a soft "come in" from the other side. Happy took a deep breath and opened the door. He saw Dani curled up on the couch in her office, the papers Loco had given her in her lap and strewn across the small table.

Happy stepped in a bit and looked at her. "Can I come in?" Happy asked. When Dani nodded, Happy stepped the rest of the way in. He looked around at her office. He had never actually been in here. He had stood at the door a couple times and watched her work, but he had always been focused on watching her. He noticed her Awards hanging on the wall, and more pictures and of course he saw the figurine. But he would ask her about that later.

"Heard Loco might have said something to upset you," Happy started out. He watched her for her reaction. She sighed, laying down the papers, and taking the reading glasses off and laying them down.

"Sort of. Not really. Just brought to the forefront that if we don't know what the fuck we are, how can anyone else." Dani said. She pulled her legs back, making room for Happy to sit down next to her on the couch. Happy walked over sitting next to her.

"What bothered you more? The ma'am? Or the Old Lady comment?" Happy asked. His hand started to caress her hair as he had draped his arm over the back of the couch.

"Not sure, actually. Hap look, it's not the patriarchal part of the club that bothers me, I mean, I was in the Air Force on active duty for 15 years. It's, it's that I don't know where I fit in that." Dani finally said. She was picking at her nails as she talked.

"That's simple, you are mine." Happy said. When Dani looked at him with this incredulous look, Happy looked back at her confused. "What? I thought that is what this is about?" Happy said.

Dani shakes her head. "Hap, I know I am yours. Just like you are mine. But in your world, Loco made it very clear this morning there are a vast level of statuses that we need to figure out. Not so much for us, but for them."

Happy sighed, rubbing his other hand over his face.

"Girl, I don't know what we are either. At least not in terms of the club. Hell, only Loco and Quinn know I even have a woman in my life. Shit, there might be some members who drop dead when they find out about you." Happy said. He leaned forward, resting on his knees.

Dani chuckled. "And why do you say that?"

Happy looked at her. "I have been in the club 18 years. And I have NEVER had a steady woman, not when I was SAMTAC, and certainly not since I have been a nomad the last 9 years." Happy said.

"Guess that makes me special," Dani said softly. Happy looked at her.

His hand moved, caressing her cheek. "Makes you a lot more than special, girl."

"Do you want an old lady?" Dani asked. She figured she might as well get right to the point.

"I want you," Happy answered.

"That's not an answer," Dani said.

"Only answer I got right now," Happy said. He hadn't really thought about this subject till this morning. He knew he loved her. He knew he was out of balance when she wasn't in his life. But old lady? That meant public declaration. That meant others knowing about her importance.

Happy looked over at her. "It's not how I feel about you that is the issue, it's how your status in the club changes…" Happy paused, trying to figure out how to say this.

"Changes how people see you? I get it. Makes you look weak." Dani said. Dani had heard enough. This conversation was so not what she wanted to have. Especially if it was going to make her feel like this. Dani threw the blanket off her lap and started to get up.

"NO." Happy barked, grabbing her hand stopping her from getting up. "It's about how you having a status in the club changes things for you." Happy said. He took a couple long breaths.

"If I had my way, I would put you on the back of my bike and take you everywhere with me, but that is not practical. I would spend EVERY moment with you if it were possible." Happy stated. Dani smiled at that. "But since I am a nomad, and I don't see me patching into a charter anytime soon, that's going to leave you alone, a lot of the time."

Dani nods her head. "Hap, I like the sentiment, but I don't want to be with you 24/7."

Happy chuckled. "But I want to be with you more often than we have in the past."

Dani nodded in agreement.

"Quinn understands how important you are to me. But, other charters? Especially Charming, are not going to be so accommodating to that little fact if you aren't official, if you aren't 'on the books.'" Happy said.

"There's a book?" Dani asked. Now that she hadn't expected.

Happy laughed outright this time. "No, it's just a term. An official declaration of some type. For some members taking an old lady is like getting married, so some make a big deal when they put their girl on the books, although it is usually for the girls benefit."

"Sounds like just an excuse to have a party." Dani says.

"Pretty much," Happy said.

"Why is Charming such a big deal?" Dani asked.

"They are the mother charter. And the closest charter to you. If anything were to happen to you, they are who I would have to call if there wasn't a nomad around to get you help." Happy explained. His face was well, frowning.

"You don't like the guys in Charming?" Dani asked.

"Not that I don't like them. They are my brothers. In fact, one of my best friends from Tacoma transferred down there. But they always have fucking chaos. Every time I am there. they push me to patch, but I would need a damn good reason to do that." Happy said.

"But if your old lady is only 2 hours away…" Dani stated as she looked at him.

Happy looked at her, nodding his head. Dani had inferred that correctly. The pressure would be even greater for him to patch Charming.

"It's not just that, being an old lady comes with expectations, on you. It comes with a whole lot of respect, as Loco showed this morning, but it comes with expectations. They are different for Nomad old ladies, but they are still there." Happy said.

"Like?" Dani asked.

"Shit, I don't even know for sure. I know nomad old ladies let nomads crash at their homes when they are in town, but I only know of one that doesn't live in a town that has a charter, so we usually just crash at the clubhouse." Happy said. "Because most of them live where there is a charter, they sort of help like other old ladies do."

Dani sat there nodding. She could not see herself as a 'subservient' old lady. And she knew she couldn't deal with petty women. She had taken everything in Happy had said. "So basically, you don't know what me being an old lady would entail, and you don't know if you want an old lady."

Happy chuckled when he heard Dani say that. "Pretty much," he replied.

"Does it matter what I want?" Dani asked.

Happy looked at her, a bit of shock on his face. "Absolutely." His hand reached over taking hers. "What makes you think it wouldn't?" he asked.

"Nothing makes me think that, just wanted to know." Dani said.

"Doesn't work if you don't want it too." Happy said.

"Ok." Dani's answer was short.

"What do you want?" Happy asked a little warily.

"I want you." Dani replied and then smiled softly at him.

Happy squeezed her hand again and leaned over, kissing her softly. "Well, at least we agree on that." Happy smiled. "We will figure it out girl, I promise." Happy said softly. "I talked to Quinn. After Thanksgiving, we are going to get you and Katherine together." Dani smiled. "Truth? I don't think he or I could keep her from coming to meet you." Happy said as he smiled.

"I would like that," she said.

"Now, what's in all this intel?" Happy asked, wanting to get away from this heavy conversation.

"Loco's research. Jacobson is a dick. And a criminal. There is plenty here to threaten him with," Dani said.

Happy paged through the info, seeing the info on Oswald. He didn't say anything about it, no need to alert Dani to one of these people having a club connection, especially when he didn't know what Quinn planned to do with it.

They sat in the office till about noon, looking over the intel and making a list of it in order of criminal severity. They could then easily decide how they approached and threatened Jacobson.

When they came out of the office they headed out to the Patio. "When Quinn and Loco headed out they said they had some club stuff to do. Do you need to join them?" Dani asked.

Happy snorted. "I think that was just Quinn's way of giving us some alone time. But now that we have at least talked, what do you want to do the rest of the day."

Dani looked at him, he was not going to like this, but she didn't care, well she did, but she needed it. "I want to go for a ride." Dani said flatly.

"No," Happy responded instinctively.

"Yes." Dani said as she stared at Happy.

Happy took a couple deep breaths. "Why?" he asked.

"A couple reasons," Dani started. Happy chuckled, of course there was more than 1 reason. "1. I haven't been out of this house for 5 days, since I got out of the hospital. Even with you here to distract me, I am starting to go a little stir crazy."

Happy nodded. He could understand that reason. But that didn't mean they had to go riding. "And?" Happy asked.

"2. I need to get back on the bike. The longer I wait, the harder it is going to be to get back on my bike and ride." Dani said as she looked back at Happy.

Happy sighed. He understood that concept. Not that he ever considered not riding. But he remembered the last time he had laid his bike down. It was just, uncomfortable, the first couple times he rode after he had recovered.

"How about we take your bike out but you ride with me." Happy said as a compromise. Dani smiled. This wasn't what she really had in mind, but it would work.

"I want to ride that road though," Dani said. Happy nodded. He had figured she wanted to go out to the accident site. "And go see the bike." Dani added.

"Don't know about the bike girl, its Saturday. But the other we can do." Happy said. He reached over, taking he hand. "Maybe even get some lunch. But then we come back and rest." Happy said in a very commanding voice.

"Rest. Is that code for fuck?" Dani said smiling at him.

Happy smiled. "It might be." He chuckled again. "Go get ready. We will see how the day goes." Happy said.

Dani got up. "Yes Sir," and then she headed inside.

Happy sat there a minute. They were nowhere closer to having defined their relationship, other than they were both on the same page, they wanted each other. He was pretty sure that could have gone way worse. He had witnessed members fight with their old ladies when he was in SAMTAC. Although he had never really heard the arguments as they were off away from members, he had watched the body language as they fought, and he knew they were passionate.

Happy headed upstairs to get ready too. When he walked in, he stood at the door of the bathroom watching Dani as she braided her hair. She saw him in the mirror and smiled at him. "I just need to get dressed," she said to him as she turned around and walked toward him. When she got close, he pulled her flush against him, and kissed her softly.

"Me too," Happy replied as she pulled away. Dani went into her closet and put on jeans and picked up some socks and her riding boots. She already had a long sleeve shirt on. She emerged from the closet to sit on the end of the bed and put on her socks and riding boots.

By the time she came out of the closet Happy was sitting on the chaise lounge putting on his boots. When they were both dressed, they headed downstairs. Happy slipped on his jacket and kutte while Dani put on her leather jacket. Happy took her hand and led them out to the garage. As he walked into the garage, he hit the button to open the garage door. Each of them put on their helmet, and Happy got on Dani's road glide and backed the bike out of the garage.

Dani walked out and got on the bike behind Happy. When Dani was settled, Happy reached back, caressing her leg. "You good?" he asked.

"Yeah, I'm good." Dani said. Her hands were around Happy's waist. He could feel her holding on to him.

"Let's go eat." Happy said.

"Mexican," Dani said back. Happy nodded he had heard her. And he pulled out of the driveway. They rode through Redding. Happy knew there was a small Mexican restaurant in town Dani liked about 15 minutes away. Dani was not clinging to him, but she was still holding on to him, which was different than before. She usually let go of him and leaned back on the sissy bar and enjoyed the ride. He could feel her relax though the longer they rode, and that was a good thing.

When they got to the restaurant, Happy parked, and Dani stood on the pegs and swung off the bike. She took off her helmet as Happy got off the bike. He took his helmet off too and they set their helmets on the seats of the bike. Happy pulled her to him, "You ok?" he asked softly as he caressed her cheek.

"Yeah, I am," she said. She looked at him and then closed her eyes as she leaned into his hand on her cheek. Happy leaned in and kissed her forehead.

"Come on, I'm hungry." Happy said. He draped his arm around her shoulder and led them into the restaurant. They sat in a booth in the back. Happy had his back to the wall so he could scan the restaurant as they ate. It was second nature for him to do this.

When the waitress brought the chips and salsa, they ordered drinks. She came back with the drinks and took their food order. As they sat there eating chips Happy looked at Dani. Even with the healing road rash on her cheek, which was the only visible sign of her accident, he thought she was the most beautiful woman he knew.

After sitting there for a moment Dani finally spoke. "Hap, you are staring at me. Something wrong?"

Happy shook his head. "No. Just thinking about how beautiful you are." When Dani blushed, Happy reached across the table, taking her hand. "Beautiful, and mine." Happy said. He wasn't a sappy guy, but he wanted her to know, and to not be embarrassed when he told her.

Dani smiled at him.

As Happy was holding her hand, his phone beeped. He reached into his pocket, bringing out the phone. He had a text from Loco. As he was reading it, Dani got a text too. Dani let go of his hand to get out her phone. She has a confused look on her face as she saw a text from a number she didn't know, but then opened it, and her face relaxed as she read the text, also from Loco.

"Who's that from?" Happy asked.

"Loco I am guessing. All it says is all the elite people check out."

Happy smiled. Quinn must have given Loco her number. "Yeah, that's what mine says too."

Happy closed his phone and put it in his pocket. "That's good. Makes our plan more concrete," he said softly as he watched Dani put her phone away too.

It didn't take long for the waitress to bring their food. Happy had ordered the enchilada dinner. They weren't as good as his ma's, but they were pretty good. Dani had gotten 3 tacos. As they ate, Happy occasionally scanned the restaurant, any time people came in, or left. Suddenly, Happy stabbed his food. The sudden noise had Dani look at him. His face was hard.

"Hap, what is it?" Dani asked. She looked at his face, and he was locked on something, looking at something with a hard, dark look.

Dani went to turn, to see what Happy was looking at, but his hand shot out, grabbing her hand, focusing her back on him. "Don't turn around." Happy said softly, in almost a growl. Dani looked at him confused. She wanted to know what had Happy's attention. She saw Happy's head turn, looking out the window, his eyes darting over to where the bike was parked, and then back to whatever had his attention.

When Happy loosened his grip on her hand a bit, Dani asked again, "Happy, what is going on?" He turned his gaze to her. His look was still hard, but he didn't have near the grip on her hand.

"Doesn't look like he saw you," Happy said. His hand went up and caressed her cheek.

"Who?" Dani asked as she turned around, looking around the restaurant.

"Jacobson. He and what I am assuming are the daughters just left. I didn't want him to see you. Can't be sure he didn't, but he didn't even glance over here, so I think you are good." Happy said.

He looked over at Dani. Her eyes were wide. "You ok girl?" he asked. His hand coming back across the table, taking her hand in his. When Dani didn't say anything, or even acknowledge his question, he asked again, "Girl look at me." Dani focused on him. "You ok?"

Dani let out a breath she hadn't even realized she was holding. She nodded her head. "Yeah, I am ok. Are you? You looked like you were going to kill him." Dani said softly, so no one could hear her.

"Believe me, I want to," Happy said. His thumb was stroking her hand. "And if he comes after you again, I am going to." Happy said in a low dark tone Dani had never heard before. He looked right at her. "NO ONE, threatens what is mine," Happy continued.

Dani smiled after a moment. She couldn't help it. His possessive comment made her tremble inside. No one had ever made her feel this way. Not her parents, and certainly not her ex-husband. "That's kind of sexy," Dani said as she smiled at him.

Happy smiled back at her. "That's why you are mine." Happy replied. Happy motioned to their food, and they continued to eat. When they were done eating, Happy paid the bill and they went out to the bike.

Standing next to the bike, Happy pulled her to him, his hand at the base of her neck. He leaned in and kissed her softly. When he broke the kiss he leaned his forehead against hers, "I love you," he whispered.

"I love you, too." Dani said softly.

"Let's go ride that road. Do you know where the accident was?" Happy asked.

"More or less. I will let you know. I am not sure there is a good place to pull over and stop but if we can…" Dani trailed off.

"If it is safe, I will pull over and stop," Happy said. Dani smiled and nodded.

Happy and Dani put on their helmets and got on the bike. Happy rode a bit, taking a couple more indirect roads before turning onto Route 56. He wasn't going to ride the road aggressively. It had a ton of curves. But he couldn't be meek either, that was dangerous. As he rode he felt Dani relaxing, enjoying the curves. But as they got close to the triple switchback, she wrapped her arms tightly around him. Coming into the 3rd curve, she squeezed tight and said, "Here,". Happy nodded and slowed down and pulled over at the little turnout that was just past the curve.

Dani got off the bike and took off her helmet. She didn't even wait for Happy as she walked back to the accident site. Happy got off the bike and hurried to catch up with her. He took her hand and held it as she looked at the highway.

There was a mark on the pavement, and a few broken branches on the shrubbery at the edge of the road, but other than that, there were no other traces really of their having been an accident. Dani looked around. Happy held her hand, and finally he asked. "Was this your first accident?"

Dani nodded. "I have dropped my bike, in parking lots and such, but yeah this was my first wreck." Dani looked over at the edge of the road, where based on the broken branches and foliage, must have been where the bike came to rest. She walked over to that spot. She bent down, Looking at the broken branches. She was looking in the grass. Happy watched her, she was looking for something. After a few minutes Happy walked over and crouched down next to her.

"What are you looking for?" Happy asked. Dani just kept scanning the grass and brush. When she didn't answer him, he asked again. "Girl, what are you looking for?" She changed from her squatting position to her knees. She just looked at him.

"Doesn't matter, its nots here." She stood up as she finished her statement. She walked back to her bike. Happy followed her and when they got to the bike Happy put his hands on her shoulders.

"Little girl, what were you looking for?" Happy said. His voice was low, and strong. He slowly turned her around to face him. When he looked at her face, he could see she was trying not to cry.

"Its stupid. When I went through my stuff from the hospital, my necklace wasn't there. I called the hospital, and the ambulance company, but neither of them had seen it, or found it. I, I was just hoping it was out here." Happy wiped the tear off her cheek as she talked. Happy knew which necklace she was talking about. It was the AA necklace she wore every day. He had noticed she didn't have it on, but she didn't always wear it around her house.

Happy pulled her to him and held her tight. He kissed the top of her head. "Its ok. I'll take care of it." Happy said. Dani looked up at him with a confused look. "I'll handle it, one way or another." He held her tight to him, as she laid her head on his shoulder.

"Come on, lets go home." Happy said. Dani nodded. They each put on their helmets and got back on the bike. They rode home in relative silence. Happy would reach back and caress her leg. Dani kept her arms around him and occasionally would lay her head against his back.

They pulled into her driveway, and into the garage. Dani got of the bike and took off her helmet. Happy removed his helmet and followed her into the house. When they got to the kitchen Happy took her hand and stopped her. Turning her so she was right in front of him. "You ok?" he asked.

Dani nodded. "Yeah, I am. Thank you for taking me. I so needed to get out of this house, even if it wasn't…" Dani slowed, looking for the work.

"The success you were hoping for?" Happy said as he smiled at her. Dani smiled back as she nodded.

"I think I am going to lay down," Dani said. Happy looked at her, wiggling his eyebrows at her. Dani giggled.

"Want some company?" Happy asked.

"Always," Dani said.

"Let me call Loco, get some more details regarding that text, and then I will be up," Happy said.

Dani nodded. Happy leaned down and kissed her softly. Dani then turned and headed upstairs.

Happy, for his part turned and headed out on the patio. He lit a cigarette as he pulled out his phone, calling Loco. He answered on the 3rd ring.

"Just calling to get the full details about that text," Happy said to Loco.

"Not much to tell. They all pretty much are normal people. Diverse backgrounds. No direct, and as far as I could tell from digging, no indirect contact with Jacobson." Loco said.

Happy nodded to himself. "What does Quinn have to say?" Happy asked.

"No idea. He called me shortly after we left Dani's. All fired up wanting confirmation about the Oswald info, and I haven't heard from him since." Loco told Happy.

"Ok." Happy replied.

"Hap, tell Dani I am sorry about this morning," Loco said.

"Don't worry about it Loco. She knows you were just being polite." Happy replied. "If you need me, or find out more, call me. I'll be at Dani's."

"I am gonna crash. I haven't been to bed yet." Loco responded.

"Thanks for all of this Brother," Happy said.

"Don't worry about it, family is family." Loco said as he hung up.

Happy sat out on the patio and had another smoke. 'Family is family.' That's what Loco had said. That's what Dani was. Or what he wanted her to be. He smiled. That definition he could work with. There were some steps, some things, he needed to do. But that, that was a definition he could definitely work with.

Happy headed upstairs after his second cigarette. When he walked in the room he found Dani laying on the bed in yoga pants and his t-shirt from this morning. She was curled on her side, and she was sound asleep. Happy stopped at the doorway and just leaned against the door jam and watched her. She was so god damn beautiful he thought to himself.

He walked over to the dresser and took off his boots. He thought about changing, but it was still early, and he didn't know what might come up. He reached into his bag and pulled out the small sketch book and his bag of pencils. He walked over to the bed and stroked her hair. If she stirred and woke up, he was going to lay down with her. Dani moaned a little, but she didn't wake. He leaned down and pressed his lips to her temple. Staying there, listening to her breathe until he finally stood up and walked out of the room and down the stairs.

He headed downstairs and set up at the kitchen breakfast bar. He quickly sketched what he wanted. He knew exactly what he wanted to draw. It took him about 20 minutes to get the basic design, and then he would stop, think about the details, and add them in. It took him about an hour, but when he was done he had the exact drawing he wanted. He tore the page out of his sketch book, folded it, and took it over to his kutte. He put it in the inside pocket for safe keeping and the right time.

Happy looked at the clock, it was 5:30. He went upstairs to check on Dani. When he walked into the bedroom she wasn't in bed. He heard her just finishing in the bathroom. Happy waited for her at the bedroom door, not wanting to startle her. She walked out and saw him.

"I thought you were coming up to join me," she said as she walked over to him.

"I came up, you were fast asleep. So, I took care of a couple things, returned some phone calls. Was just coming to check on you." Happy said as he held her to him.

"Anything I need to know about?" Dani asked.

Happy smiled. "Quinn is actually doing club shit, and Loco just verbally confirmed what his text said. Let's go down and smoke."

Dani nodded. They headed down the stairs together, and out onto the porch. Happy pulled her over to the Chaise lounge. With it being late November, the sun was already set, and it was getting dark. Dani curled against Happy as they smoked.

They didn't really talk, they just stayed close as they sat on the chaise. Happy would lean down, pressing his lips to the top of her head, and he could feel her hand sliding over his chest. After what must have been an hour, Happy felt her shiver.

"You cold?" Happy asked.

"A little," Dani said softly.

Happy kissed the top of her head. "Let's go inside. We are going to need to think about eating soon anyway." Happy said as he nudged her to get up.

Dani and Happy walked into her house. "You should call Quinn. We can go over that list we made this morning. That way when the Elite teams comes out on Monday, we can threaten Jacobson right away."

Happy's instincts kicked in before his brain, "You aren't going to be threatening anyone," Happy said.

Dani turned around, "Oh, Yes. I. Am." Dani said emphatically.

"No you are not. This guy is dangerous. You aren't getting anywhere near him." Happy responded.

"Oh, I am going to be there. I am going to look that little shit in the eyes and he is going to know he didn't beat me." Dani said.

"NO. I don't want you involved." Happy raised his voice. He was agitated she didn't get it.

"I am involved Happy!" Dani exclaimed.

Just as Happy was about to respond, the doorbell rang. Happy looked at Dani. "You expecting someone?" he asked.

"No," Dani replied.

Happy walked to the door. He looked through the peephole and saw Quinn. 'Jesus, he had shitty timing.' Happy thought as he opened the door.

"Not a good time," Happy said as he stared down his president.

Quinn looked in, seeing Dani standing over by the stairs with her arms crossed over her chest. "Looks to me I may have perfect timing. Get your shit, we are going for a ride."

Happy gave Quinn a hard look. He had no intention of leaving Dani alone, especially in mid discussion.

"Get your shit." Quinn said again. "Trust me, Dani will be fine."

Happy turned and headed for the stairs. When he got to Dani, he caressed her cheek and then pulled her to him. "We are not done with this," he said softly. Then he leaned down and kissed her softly. He then leaned in, "I love you little girl."

Dani looked at Happy, "I love you too. Go, I will be fine."

Happy nodded and headed up the stairs. Dani walked over to Quinn, "You can come in while you wait," she said.

Quinn smiled, "Got someone I want you to meet darlin," Quinn said. He motioned for someone behind him, and this petite woman with long black hair walked up. "Dani, this is my wife, Katherine."

Dani's mouth was open a bit, but then she smiled. She put out her hand to shake Katherine's, "Nice to meet you Katherine." Dani said.

"You too Dani." Katherine said. "Mind if I hang out with you while my old man takes Happy for a while?"

Dani smiled even more. "That would be great!" Dani said, motioning for her to come in. Quinn shut the door but stayed in the entryway waiting for Happy.

Happy came down the stairs but stopped when he saw Katherine standing over by the kitchen island. He then continued down the stairs and walked over to Dani, draping his arm around her shoulders. "I gather you 2 have met?" Happy said.

Katherine piped in before Dani had a chance to answer. "Quinn took care of the introductions," Katherine said. "Now get the hell out of here so I can talk with your lady."

Happy laughed. He then bent down and kissed Dani softly. "You ok with this?" he whispered in her ear.

Dani nodded. "Yes Sir." She smiled at him as he caressed her cheek.

Happy walked over to Katherine and leaned in, "Thanks," he said softly.

"You may not think that after you get back," Katherine teased as she smiled at him.

Happy gave her a hard look, but Katherine just pushed him toward the door. Happy motioned to Quinn he was going out through the garage, and Quinn nodded. Quinn looked at his wife and smiled. She smiled back and he stepped out of the house.

When the men were gone, Dani looked at Katherine, "Can I get you some coffee Katherine?" Dani asked.

"Sounds great." She replied.

"Is he going to be ok?" Dani asked as she poured 2 cups of coffee.

"Yeah, he will. But he is in for a shock. I am not the only person Quinn called." Katherine said.

Dani looked at her, "What do you mean?"

"You will meet him later, but let's talk about you." Katherine said. The women walked over to the couch, settling in to talk.

When Happy backed his bike out of the garage, he saw the 3rd man sitting on his bike next to Quinn. Happy looked at him in shock. "What the fuck are you doing here?" Happy barked.

"Heard you needed some help," Donut said.

Happy looked at Quinn, "How many people have you told?" he asked, getting angry quickly.

Quinn just shook his head, "Calm down. Called him because he can help. Now let's go." Quinn pulled out of the drive. Donut followed him, and after a couple moments, Happy followed him. How the fuck could Donut help with this? Happy thought as he rode off.
