She used concealer to cover the bruises, then applied the rest of her make-up, pulling her hair up in a messy ponytail, she saw Happy leaning against the door frame of the bathroom.
"Why do you wear so much make up, you don't need it."
"Too cover the ugliness." She tried to brush past him out of the bathroom, he grabbed her arm to stop her.
"Don't you know how beautiful you are?" She was shaking her head no at him, his hands went up to stop her. He pulled her close for a kiss. "You're beautiful, and sexy Madison Winston!" He growled at her.
She closed her eyes, trying to believe him, wanting to believe him, but there was still that nagging voice in her head. He released her from his hold so she could finish getting ready for work. She pulled a black pair of jeans, a pink button up shirt, and boots. She grabbed her purse, walking towards the front door. Happy stopped her.
"Are you thinking about leaving without me?"
"Wouldn't dream of it!" She actually had, her car was parked out front. She knew it was a stupid idea, but Paul was yet again taking her independence. She understood their protectiveness, she loved them all for it. His hand was on the small of her back, guiding her out the door. he handed her a helmet as he climbed on his bike, she climbed on behind him after putting the helmet on.
Her arms were tightly wrapped around his waist, the sun was shining on her face. He took the turn fast and sharp, she held him tighter and let out a laugh. She felt his ab muscles tighten, when her grip tightened and she laughed. He pulled into the studio lot, Chibs was there waiting for them, she climbed off his bike taking off her helmet.
He pulled her in for a kiss. "I have to go out of town for club business, someone will stay with you."
"Okay." She felt disappointed but knew it was part of club life. He kissed her again, before releasing her. She took her helmet with her, pulling out her keys, she smiled at Chibs. He got off his bike, following her into the studio.
"Oh, so you got Maddie duty?"
"Aye, lass...I volunteered." He winked at her.
"Why do I have a feeling all of you volunteered, something about getting to watch free porn all day?"
"Oh lass, it wasn't that way not for me." He looked a little hurt.
She laughed at him, giving him a little push. "Aww, sorry Chibby!"
"So, when do the other ladies get here?"
She grinned. "Oh, sorry to disappointed love, but it's just men today..." She watched the look on his face, she busted out laughing. "Gotcha!"
"That wasn't very kind of you!"
"I know but the look on your face was priceless!" She laughed. He came up behind her, putting his hand on her shoulder.
"It's good to see you smile, and hear you laugh." He kissed her cheek.

The more she talked to Ima, the more she realized that the porn star was a nasty bitch! Ima treated Maddie like she was the hired help, she was also jealous that the Sons gave her attention. Ima often made bitchy commenys to Maddie, when Luanne wasn't close enough to hear, because she was a professional, Maddie never said anything.
She was applying Ima's make-up and fixing her hair. "So I heard your fiancee, paid you a visit Friday." Maddie straightened up, giving Ima's hair a painful tug. "Ouch!"
"Sorry!"
"Luanne, said he got a good hit on you!" Maddie tugged on her hair again. "That hurt you bitch!"
She smiled at Ima in the mirror. "Shut your cum sucker about my life or I will pull you bald!" She finished Ima's hair, shoving her from the chair. Maddie stepped outside needing a minute to calm down. Chibs followed her outside, seeing the look on her face.
"What's going on love?"
"I just need a minute." He put his hands on her shoulders turning her around, looking into her eyes.
"What did that little gash say to you?"
"I'm a big girl, I can handle my own shit." He leaned against the wall waiting for her, he lit a cigarette. She opened the studio door, walking back in, Lyla was sitting in her chair. Lyla was the opposite of that nasty bitch Ima, she loved doing her make-up and hair.
She smiled at Lyla in the mirror. "Hey girl! How are you?"
"I'm good Maddie! Don't let Ima get to you, she's a bitch." Both women laughed, she finished Lyla's hair and make-up she went to the set. Maddie did the rest of the actor's hair and make-up. She was sitting in her chair relaxing, drinking a cup of coffee. Luanne called from the set, asking her to go get a spare costume from the closet. She walked into the small closet looking for the outfit, Luanne wanted.
She was shoved inside, the light went out, and the door was jammed, she beat against the door, yelling to be let out. Panic started to set in, when she realized she couldn't get out, she started screaming, and hitting the door hard. Ima leaned against the door smiling, she walked off the the set.

Chibs looked around the studio, not seeing Maddie he had an uneasy feeling. He walked over to Luanne. "Where's Maddie?"
"I sent her to get a costume, but she's gone for a while now."
He cursed under his breath going to look for her, he found the closet she was sent to, he slowly approached it, he could hear her crying inside. Seeing the chair under the handle, he cursed loudly, he ripped open the doors and found her curled up in a ball. "Christ Maddie, love! Are you okay?" He went to touch her, she moved away from him.
"Please..let me out. I'll be good..please."
"Maddie lass..." She blinked a couple of times, realizing where she was she crawled out of the closet to him.
"Sorry.." She was looking down, he lifted her chin.
"What happened?"
"Someone pushed me in the closet, and locked me in." He pulled her in his arms hugging her.
"You have to tell one of us what he did to you, all of it!"
She closed her eyes. "He use to lock me in a dark closet, when I misbehaved...hours..days.."
"Christ!"
"I can't stand small dark places." He kissed her forehead.
"You need to tell Ope everything. Promise me!"
"Chibs..."
They could hear Luanne cursing as she came close to them, she looked at Maddie. "What the hell is taking so long?"
"Someone pushed her in the closet, and locked her in!" Chibs growled.
"You okay baby girl?"
"I'm fine."
"Take the rest of the day off."
"Thanks." She and Chibs walked through the studio, she packed up her cases to leave. Ina was sitting in her chair, smiling, she got up walking over to Maddie.
"Geeze, about time you came out of the closet." Maddie handed the cases to Chibs, smiled at Ima and punched her in the face. She straddled her waist got down by her ear and whispered in her ear.
"Watch you back bitch!" She got up, taking her bags from him, he pushed her out the door. "That felt really good!" She heard him chuckle.

She had decided to tell both Happy and Opie everything, maybe she could start being herself again. She heard both motorcycles riding up, she heard them yelling at each other in the yard. She ran out to the yard. "Please, will you two, just come inside! I need to tell you something." She walked back inside leaving the door open, both men came inside. "Sit down." She got out a couple of beers, sliding them each a bottle.
"What's going on sis?"
She closed her eyes, not wanting to tell either one of them knowing it would change the way they felt about her. "When I started dating Paul, he really was a nice guy, treated me with respect, he was a gentlemen. Once we started a serious relationship, he got a little controlling, suggesting what I wear, always picking what we did for dates, we only hung out with his friends. Once we were engaged it all changed, I was told where and when I could go places, what to eat, what to wear. I was never good enough, beautiful enough, smart enough for him. I was told no one would ever love me and I was lucky to have him as a fiancee.' She got up from the table turning her back on them, she couldn't look at them when she told them the next part.
"If I stepped out of line, he'd lock me in a small dark closet...sometimes just for hours but up to three days, without food." She heard a chair scrape across the floor, she was spun around to face her giant of a brother, he had tears in his eyes.
"Christ Madison Claire!" He pulled her into his arms for a hug. "I had no idea it was that bad!"
"No one did! When he told me it was him or my family, something finally woke up in me, but he still has a hold on me. I don't know why."
"When I get my hands on that asshole..he hurt you!"
"Ope...'
Opie walked over to Happy. "Take care of her!"
"I will brother." Opie left the house. Happy pushed his chair back from the table, he walked across the room to her. His arms went around her, he leaned in to gently kiss her.
"Happy..." He picked her up, holding her tightly and close to his body, she wrapped her arms around his neck. "You don't have to do this...I mean...if you want to..."
"I want you and only you! I'm crazy about you!" He crushed his lips to hers, carrying her to the bedroom.

He put her down once in the bedroom, walking her over to the bed. She pushed him down on the bed, she took her clothes off, she climbed into bed with him. Leaning down she kissed him, straddling his lap, she could feel him getting hard. She reached down, unbuckling his belt, undoing his pants, she pulled his cock from his pants. She heard him inhale, she lowered her mouth taking the tip of his cock in her mouth, gently sucking. His hands were in her hair, she lowered her mouth taking all of him. His hands pulled her hair, she continued running her lips along his cock. She heard him moan, she could tell he was getting close.
He picked her up, rolling her to her back, he parted her knees, and thrust inside her. "Happy!" He leaned down, taking her nipple in his mouth, biting it gently. She arched her back, she wrapped her legs around his waist. He raised his head, looking into her eyes, he thrust inside of her hard and fast, she screamed his name, tightening around him, he found his climax, his lips crushed against hers.
She lay in his arms, not being able to sleep, she could hear his soft breathing. She had fallen in love with him, as hard as she tried not to she did. Being crazy about you and being in love with you are two very different emotions. He rolled over in his sleep, she eased herself out of bed, getting dressed in yoga pants and one of his t-shirts, she crept out of the bedroom.
She walked out to the back patio, sitting down on one of the chairs, feeling the cool nights air on her skin. She looked up into the sky, looking at the full moon, and the sky full of stars. She saw a shooting star, she closed her eyes, smiling making a wish. She heard the door open, she turned to see Happy walking out in his boxers.
"What are you doing out here?"
"I couldn't sleep."
"Come back to bed, with me." He held his hand out to her, she smiled up at him, taking his hand.

"Come on Happy, he's long gone. He'd be an idiot to come near me again...I think I can do without a babysitter."
"I don't want to take the chance of something happening to you!" She rolled her eyes.
"I'm sure Clay is tired of providing me protection." He pulled her into his arms, kissing her. "I'll be careful!"
"No!" He growled.
"Please, I'll be safe. I'll go straight to CaraCara."
"What about the Mayans?"
"There hasn't been a threat since the first one."
"You'll call me when you get there?"
"Yes...I promise."
He growled at her, before finally agreeing.
XXX
She put the top down on her car, pulled out on the highway and headed for CaraCara. She noticed the motorcycle several cars behind her, she shook her head wondering which Son got the job of tailing her. She picked up her phone calling Happy, he answered on the second ring.
"Hello babe!"
"What part of I don't need a babysitter, don't you understand?"
"What are you talking about girl?"
"The Son that is tailing me?"
"Don't stop...there isn't any Son tailing you! Where are you?"
"On my way too CaraCara,,,almost there." She accelerated as the motorcycle got closer, she turned a corner dropping her phone, She flew into the parking lot of CaraCara, she power slid turning around heading out of the parking lot, heading towards the biker head on. He aimed a gun at her head, she swerved and ducked down driving out of the parking lot, a bullet shattered her windshield.
She felt the floor for her phone, not being able to find it, she sat up and flew out of the parking lot, heading back the way she came. She saw a group of riders bikers coming her way, she recognized them as her family. She flew around them, pulling into a parking lot, the black club van pulling in behind her. She got out of her car, dusting shards of glass off of her, Happy and Opie pulled into the parking lot.
Happy was off his bike and at her car, looking it over. "Shit! What did I tell you?"
"I called you!" He grabbed her, kissing her. "I'm fine, I'm whole."
"Did you get a look at his colors?"
"No, I was too busy not getting shot." She closed her eyes at her mistake.
"What did you just say?"
"Shit! He fired a shot at me, it took out my windshield. I'm fine!" Not believing her word, he looked her over. He noticed some blood on her shirt, he moved it away to look for a wound. "It's just from flying glass." She pushed his hands away. The rumble of the rest of the club came into the parking lot, she was surrounded by her family.
Opie had gotten off his bike and finally came over to her. "You whole sis?"
"Yes."
"She was shot at!" Happy snapped. She rolled her eyes, he pretty much just assured her to be under protection for the rest of her life.
"Big mouth! Couldn't keep that fact between us could you?"
"No! I'm going to need help keeping you safe!" He growled in her ear.
She watched her car being loaded by the tow truck, Happy handed her a helmet giving her a ride back to CaraCara. She kissed him as she got off his bike, he pulled her to him. "Don't leave this building without me!"
"Alright!" He kissed her again, he waited until she was inside before he left her.

"Well the biker whore is finally here! Ima said. Maddie walked up to her, smiling.
"Ima, you're just jealous because I'll always be SAMCRO royalty and you'll never be nothing, not even good enough to be a Croeater!" She walked off to set up her station to get ready for the day. Ima glared at her, she would make the bitch pay, take her down a peg or two. She watched the little uppity bitch do Lyla's makeup and hair, coming up with a plan.
When Ima took her turn in Maddie's chair, she had a plan well in place.
