He watched her move around the kitchen, her hips swaying as she prepared dinner. She was only cooking for herself and Veronica but when Red showed up at her door, she was more than happy to welcome him inside and spend some time with him. She never minded his company, he was a good friend to her and he made her feel safe when he was around.

"Do you want beer or something else?" Hanna looked back at the table where Red was sitting.

He looked up from the magazine he was absent-mindedly flipping through and nodded his head, his brown eyes never leaving her baby blue orbs. "Beer's fine… What are you making?"

"Just some pasta, V loves the stuff. We're gonna make brownies later if you wanna stick around for that messy adventure." Hanna grabbed a beer out of the fridge and handed it to the man at her table. "How was the run?"

He smiled in gratitude for the beer and shrugged his shoulders. "It was so-so… Where is the Princess?"

"Finishing up her nap… Go check on her, she might already be awake." Hanna turned back to the stove, stirring the raw noodles in the pot. Picking up the baby monitor that was sitting by the stove, she turned the volume up so she could listen to Red and Veronica.

Veronica was just now starting to talk. She was saying small words, her first word being her mother's name which was first spoken a few months ago. She could say most of the guys names and she had taken quite a liking to Red.

"Hey pretty girl, what are you doing?" Red's voice came through the monitor and Hanna couldn't help the smile that suddenly grew on her face. She heard laughter before the pair appeared in the kitchen and she shook her head at the mischievous looks on their faces.

"What are you two up to?" Hanna questioned as Red placed Veronica on the ground and watched her latch onto his leg. "Hey you... come here to me!" Veronica looked back at her mother, her dark tendrils falling in her face. "Yeah you, Veronica Jocelyn, come here."

"Go get her, Princess!" Red bent over to unhook her tight little grip she had around his leg and guided her to the blonde beauty. "I'll just be over here, stop your worrying!"

Happy walked through his house, her house, their fucking house and he could smell her everywhere. "Just stay here... I'll be back in a minute." He spoke to the redhead croweater that was looking a little too eager.

Hap walked through the house to the living and grabbed his personal cell phone off the coffee table. He was still trying to figure out why he had to watch the whore standing in his foyer. He didn't care what happened to her, why did he have to protect her?

He walked back into the foyer to see the redhead looking at the pictures on the walls. "Who's the blonde?"

"No one." He growled, walking to the door. "Let's go..."

She moved to the other wall, seeing more pictures of some blonde woman, a few picture were of the blonde with Happy, even a baby was featured in the pictures. "How come you've got this big house if you're the only one who lives here?"

"Quit asking me shit and stop worrying about me!" He quickly turned, grabbing the girl by her arm and pushing her out the door. Slamming it closed when she was off the porch.

Darcy looked around the yard to see it was very well taken care of and the house was actually beautiful. She honestly didn't believe a biker would live there. "Sorry... i was just curious." Darcy watched Happy lock the door and simply stare At the house for a few minutes before he slowly walked down the small flight of stairs and down the walkway. "What happened to her?"

"She's gone. Go to the clubhouse... I'll be right behind you." He grunted, walking to his bike.

Red sat on the couch with his feet propped up on the coffee table while sat in the recliner, slowly rocking her 1 year old daughter to sleep. His brown eyes stayed on her; her long tan legs were grossed at the knee and the sleep shorts she had on her insanely short and held very little mystery to his imagination. If he leaned forward just a little, he could see her cleavage and that was something he couldn't complain about.

His attraction for her wasn't exactly hidden. He'd stolen a kiss or two from her and he always hugged her when he first got to her and then when he left her. He knew she wasn't over Happy and he knew she probably would never be over him but that didnt change the way he felt for the beauty. He couldn't help the way he felt for her, hell if he was being honest with himself, he didn't want to help it. He was ok with the attraction and he knew she was too.

Red's eyes flickered back to the TV as he noticed she was getting up to take Veronica to her room. "Ill be back." He heard her whisper as she placed a hand on his shoulder. He nodded his head,touching her hand before she left.

Shortly after, she came back into the living room and sat down beside Red, she hit him on his leg, waking him up. "You fall asleep here and I'm leaving you here..."

"I'll just come sleep in your bed, woman." He smirked, throwing his arm around her shoulder.

She laughed as she leaned into him. "Be careful, I might cuddle with you... I'm a big cuddler, ya know." She patted his stomach, smiling as a smile broke on his face.

"That's fine with me. As long as I get a good night's sleep..." They stared at each other for a few minutes. She was still smiling even though his smile fell moments earlier. "You're beautiful."

Hanna shrugged her shoulders, not really sure what to say but that didn't matter as he leaned forward and pressed his lips to hers. She mistakenly gasped, giving him access to deepen the kiss and she finally responded, kissing him back. Red quickly took control, pulling her into his lap. His lips left hers and started a heated path down her neck to her collarbone then her chest.

He pulled away from her as his rough hands found the straps of her tank top and slowly slid the straps down her arms. Her blue eyes never left his as he continued to lower her tank top. One hand found a breast while the other lowered to Hanna's hip and his lips found her neck again.

She moaned as she felt his lips move lower down her body and she felt her mind drifting off... She was taken back to every single experience she shared with Happy. She was hit with thousands of memories, his touch, his smell, the way his hands felt on her skin, the way his lips and tongue felt on her but then she was hit with the sudden painful ache to have him inside her. She wanted it to be him that she was straddling, his mouth on her, she wanted Happy. She needed him.

Opening her eyes, she came back to reality and noticed that it was Red, not Happy. She pulled herself out of his grasp and stood up, fixing her tank top. "Oh my god, Red... I'm so sorry." She took note of the confused look on his face. "I'm - oh fuck, I'm sorry! I don't know what happened there, I'm sorry... I- Shit, Red! I'm so-."

"Would you relax? It's cool... I get it, you got caught up... Relax... I should be apologizing, not you. Chill, ok?" He stood up, fixing his cut and placing a hand on her hip. "I'm not mad, alright? I get it, just stop apologizing. I shouldn't have kissed you... I just couldn't help myself." He pressed a kiss to her forehead, lingering in the spot for a minute. "I'll check in on you guys in the morning, lock up when I leave, alright?" He backed away from her and she nodded her head, a hand still covering her mouth in shock.

Damn, did she miss her ex or what...

Happy slung the pictures off the table, picking up the table and tossing it at the wall above the staircase. Spotting the pictures on the wall opposite of the door, he threw his fist into the space between the first and second pictures, watching the pictures fall to the floor and shatter.

Through the loud clashes of furniture and glass breaking, Hap didn't hear the door open and see his best friend standing by it, he just kept throwing shit. As he ran out of things to throw, he slowly turned around to double check the foyer for projectiles.

"Feel better?" Kozik crossed his arms, smirking.

He didn't want to see anyone especially not the asshole in front of him. "What the fuck do you want?"

"Darcy told me you might be here... She said you looked a little out of place when she last saw ya." Kozik looked around the foyer to see the large disaster. "Maybe it's time to move on, brotha. Let it go, let her go, ya know? What exactly do you think is gonna happen if you find her? Hell, man, she's probably already with someone else... what? You gonna kill the new guy and force her to be with you? You can't keep on like this. Look at you, man... You're ripping this place to shreds all because someone asked about her because they saw pictures of her. Let it fuckin' go, Hap." Kozik looked around the room again before facing the angry man before him. "I'm sorry, brotha... She's gone. She's not coming back, you're never going to see her again and you're only going to kill yourself if you keep this shit up. I'll be at the clubhouse for a little while, then I'm going to Tacoma... I'm here, man, just let me know." With his peace being spoke, Kozik left. Even though part of him wanted Hap to ignore him and continue to look for Hanna but the other part of him wished he would give up the hunt for her.

Happy looked around the disastrous room, catching sight of a picture of him and Hanna before Roni was born. He was leaning against his motorcycle and she was standing before him, Hap had a hand on her largely protruding stomach and he was kissing it. Hanna had a smile on her face and a hand splayed in the middle of his back. He loved the damn picture, that was their relationship: joking, loving, caring, despite the horrid shit they'd been through. Their relationship always contained a playful and loving atmosphere. He couldn't let her go, he loved the woman more than life itself... he was just a stupid man that didn't truly know what he had until it was gone.

He bent down and picked up the next picture. He was holding her, her legs wrapped around him and they were kissing. She was wearing a skirt and his hands were going up the skirt, pushing it up a little and coming close to showing whoever was around during that time her ass. He'd give anything to be the man in the picture, touching the blonde, holding her, kissing her, feeling her... Hap dropped the picture to the ground and viciously wiped the falling tears from his eyes. He wasn't letting her go, he was going to find her and win her back.
