…Chapter Five…

The next morning, Desirae's phone rang, which woke her up. She grabbed it from the night stand, then yawned, pressing the talk button. "Uh, hello?"

"Good morning, Miss Crawford… this is Benny."

"Oh, good morning, Benny." she sat up and raised her eyebrow, noticing that Happy was, again, gone. "What's… up?"

"I called to tell you that the offer went through and the house is yours."

"Shit, seriously?" Desirae let out a breath of relief. "That's good news."

"Yes, and the really good news is: you can get the keys today and move in as soon as you like."

"Awesome, thanks, Benny."

"What time do you plan on going over there?"

"Is later this afternoon okay? Say… around one pm?"

"That's fine, Miss Crawford. Congratulations and I'll see you then."

"Okay, thanks." Desirae told him, before hanging up her phone. "YES! YES! YES!" she screamed, slamming her head on the pillow. "YES!"

Suddenly, the door swung open, with a weird look on Kozik's face. "Desi?" then his eyes widened, seeing half of her ass hanging out as well as one of her boobs. "You sleep naked?"

"Jesus Christ, Koz." she quickly covered up. "What are you doing?"

"Well, Princess, I heard you yelling and it sounded like you were having sex."

Desirae sat up and covered herself a little better. "So, your initial thought was to barge in here, like a mad man? What if I was really having sex?"

"Oh, please." he waved his hand. "With who? You know damn well, especially after what happened with that punk bitch Prospect, you bring a random dude around here, us guys will interrogate the shit out of him."

"Riiiiiiight." she rolled her eyes.

"No, really." he leaned up against the door frame. "Why were you screaming?"

"I got the call about the house I put an offer on."

"And?"

"It's all mine." she grinned. "I get the keys later on today and I can move in right after."

"Oh, congrats, Princess."

"Thanks."

"Where is it?"

"It's about five houses down from Jax's place."

"Cool." Kozik nodded, then got a little closer. "How many tattoos do you have?"

"Nine."

"You getting any more?"

"Yeah." she shrugged. "Don't know when though, but I do want more." she stretched, then stared at Kozik for a second. "I'm going to get dressed now."

"You need help? Because I'm game."

"No, Silly Ass. I'm perfectly capable of getting my clothes on, by myself."

"Alright." Kozik sighed. "I'll be out there, if you change your mind."

"Not gonna happen, but that's good to know." she slightly shook her head.

"See you in a few, Princess." he smiled, then he shut the door behind him.

"He makes me laugh." she muttered, getting out of bed, and looked for some clothes to wear.

...

"Okay, Uncle Piney… I see your nine M&M's and I raise you five jelly beans."

"Alright, Jaden… I call." Piney put his candy in the middle of the table. "What do you got?"

Jaden smirked, laying his cards down. "Two Kings."

"Not bad." Piney nodded.

"What do you have?"

"Two tens." Piney chuckled. "And it looks like you win again."

As Jaden was collecting his winnings, he looked up, and smiled. "Hi, Mommy."

Desirae raised her eyebrow. "What's going on here?"

"Just a friendly game of poker." Piney said, shuffling the cards.

"Yeah, and I'm winning, Mommy."

"That's… that's great, guess what?"

"What?"

"Mommy got us a new house."

Jaden's eye lit up. "Really?"

"Yeah and it's close to Jax's house, so you can play with Abel and Thomas."

"That's awesome, Mommy."

Desirae gave Jaden a kiss on top of his head and chuckled. "Enjoy your game and have fun. Don't kick Piney's ass too bad."

"Don't worry, Mommy, I got this." he smiled, making Piney laugh.

A few minutes later, Desirae walked outside, and suddenly, she heard someone whistle at her. She turned around and saw Kozik looking at her with goofy smile, so she went up to him. "What are you doing, Goofball?"

"Wow." Kozik looked at her from head to toe. "A small tank top and short shorts? You know, I could have helped you with that."

"Yeah, I bet." she rolled her eyes. "Is Gemma in the office?"

"Yeah."

Desirae nodded, then looked around. "Don't you have a job to do?"

"My job, Princess, is to bug you."

"Riiiiiight." she shook her head, then went into the office. "Knock, knock."

"Oh." Gemma looked up. "Hey, Des, good morning."

"Morning." she sat down on the chair. "I got some good news."

"What?"

"I got the call on the house and it's mine."

"Oh, that's great." Gemma gave her a hug, then let go. "When can you move in?"

"Well, I get the keys later on, and I can move in right after that."

"You're gonna need some furniture."

"Yeah." Desirae laughed. "Because I have none."

"Well, Baby, until you get everything ready, you know Jaden can stay with us or stay at Jax's."

"Okay, that would be great, because it will take some time to get everything ready." she sighed. "I'm sure I'll have to paint a few rooms and fix some minor things."

"Honey." Gemma waved her hand. "That's what Prospects are for."

"Yeah, true." Desirae stood up. "I'm gonna go buy a few things, before I meet up with the Realtor."

"Okay, where's Jaden?"

"In the clubhouse, playing poker with Piney, betting M&M's and jelly beans."

Gemma laughed. "Those two are always playing poker, go fish, or playing pool." she paused. "Go ahead and do what you have to do, Jaden will be fine, besides, Tara's bringing Abel and Thomas later."

"That's good, maybe Jaden can teach Abel how to gamble his fruit snacks or Snickers."

"Yeah, maybe." Gemma laughed. "See you later, Baby."

"Bye." Desirae waved, before she walked out, then kind of frowned, seeing Kozik leaning up against the Beamer, and went up to him. "What are you doing now?"

"I've got Desi duty."

"No, you don't."

"Yes, I do, Princess." he nodded. "Jax told me, where ever you go, I go."

"Kozik, that was yesterday."

"Well, where are you going?"

"To grab some stuff before I met up with the Realtor."

"Des, you know Jax wouldn't let you go anywhere alone."

"Kozik, I'm a big girl. I just came back from Iraq, where I've seen things that would even shock you… so, I think I can handle running around town by myself."

"Did you forget that I served my country too? So, I'm pretty sure I've seen way more bizarre things, that would scar you for a lifetime, but either way, you're not going alone, Princess." Desirae frowned, which made him chuckle. "I bet you, if you tell Jax you're leaving somewhere, he'd just tell me to go with you, so really, there's no way of getting out of this." he counted to ten in his head, then he started to walk away. "Let's go ask him."

"No." she grabbed his arm. "Fine, you can go with me, but on one condition."

"Name it, Princess."

"Okay, you ride in the car. You think you can detach yourself from your bike for a few hours?"

"Yes." he nodded. "I think I can handle that."

"Alright." she opened the car door. "Let's go."

"I knew you'd see it my way." Kozik said, getting into the passenger seat

Desirae glared at him for a few seconds, then put on her sunglasses, and drove off. "I really hate you, Kozik."

"Bullshit." he scoffed. "How can you not love this?" he pointed to himself, making Desirae laugh, then he lightly punched her in the arm. "See you love me."

"Yeah, I love you about as much as I love having cramps or a hang nail, or even a migrane."

Kozik put his hand on his heart. "That hurts, Princess… I thought you cared a little bit more about me than that."

"Oh, shut up." she smacked his leg. "I'm just kidding, don't be such a girl."

"Ha - ha." he smacked her arm, then started messing with the buttons on the radio. "So, where are we going?"

...

Happy pulled up to the lot and saw that the Beamer was missing, so he shut off his bike, and walked into the office. "Hey Gemma, have you seen Desi?"

"She was here, not too long ago, but she left to buy some things for her new house."

"She got it?"

"Yeah." Gemma nodded. "But Des is out shopping."

"By herself?"

"No, I think Kozik went with her."

"You sure? His bike is still here."

"Well." Gemma shrugged. "Maybe he got into the car with her. I did see them two talking."

Happy groaned. "A'ight, thanks." he told her before walking into the clubhouse.
