Together with Lana and her new puppy, Dani went to pick up her furniture. They had rented a moving van, which Lana was confident she could drive, to bring all the stuff to her café. Jax had promised her to stop by later to help her assemble everything.

"He's so cute," Lana said, reaching out to pet the dog cradled in Dani's arms.

"Jesus, Lana. Focus on the road," Dani laughed, wondering if Lana really could drive a van.

The stuff they got was all in retro theme. She even managed to track down a jukebox which she could pick up later this week. Dani could hardly contain her excitement. The café was beginning to look better than ever and if she was being honest, she missed working.

"I can't believe Jax got you a dog," she continued. "That's really romantic."

Dani blushed slightly. She had to admit Jax had made her feel really special. How often does someone buy someone else a dog?

"Just pull up here," Dani replied, wanting to change the topic. Talking about Jax still made her a little uncomfortable, especially since she didn't know what they were exactly. Lovers? Friends? Something more?

Luckily there was a parking spot in front of the café so they didn't have to carry all the stuff from down the street to the café. Dani got out of the van, putting her dog on the ground. She still had to think of a name for him, but so far she had absolutely no inspiration. If it were Lana's way, the dog would be called Chewy, but Dani had talked her out of it.

While she opened the door, letting the dog in, Lana opened up the van. The pup immediately started to explore the café, sniffing the walls which had been freshly painted. Dani followed him, hoping he wouldn't pee on her brand new floor.

Lana already started to unload when Dani returned to give her a hand. She picked up one of the bar stools and carried it inside. "Watch the dog," Lana warned. Maybe having a dog around wasn't the best idea, but she could not leave him alone in her home. Besides, she wanted him to also be at the café when she was there, so it was better for him if he could adjust quickly to the environment.

Luckily not much of the new stuff had to be actually assembled, so she saved the stuff that had to be assembled up for last, figuring Jax was better with that kind of stuff than she and Lana were.

"I'm gonna go if that's alright?" Lana spoke after spending the entire morning at the café, placing everything just the way Dani wanted it.

"Yeah sure," Dani said. "Jax is coming, and besides, I have Bruce to look after me now." She kneeled down to give her dog a kiss.

"Bruce?" Lana spoke.

Dani nodded, smiling. The name had popped into her head all of a sudden and she found it very fitting. It was pretty badass name for a badass dog.

For the first time in forever, Dani left the door unlocked. With Bruce by herself she felt safe, and she had begun wondering if Harrison was actually ever coming back. It had been quite some time now and the more time passed, the less she started to care. He wasn't going to trash her café a second time.

"Need help?" she heard Jax's voice behind her. Dani had been sitting on the floor, trying to figure out how this cabinet was supposed to be assembled but the drawing was rather complicated, plus she had to keep an eye on Bruce which didn't exactly speed up the process.

"Actually, yes," she said, pushing herself up from the ground, moving closer to Jax, giving him a kiss on his cheek.

Bruce had also spotted Jax, excitedly dribbling towards him. "You think of a name yet?"

"Yeah, Bruce."

Jax nodded. "That's a good name."

"So," Dani said, picking up the manual from the ground, giving it to Jax. "If you can fix that thing then I can play with Bruce?"

Jax laughed. "Only because you asked to nicely."

"Thanks," Dani smiled when Jax had finished assembling the cabinet. "If you could put it in that corner that would be great."

He nodded pushed it to the exact place where she wanted it. Dani took a step back, admiring her café. Everything looked drastically different, yet everything about the café was still the same.

"You're father would've been proud," Jax said, standing next to her.

Dani nodded slowly. She could hardly believe she really did it. The café was her proof that she could rise above anything. No matter what life threw at her, she would fight back and get better.

"It looks better than before, don't you think?" she asked, her eyes taking in every detail.

"You did an amazing job, Dani. If Gemma sees this she'll probably get you to redo the clubhouse."

Dani chuckled. "I'm done with redecorating for a while."

She turned her body to face him, her hand on his arm. "Thanks again for Bruce, Jax. And helping me get through everything."

"No problem, darling," Jax replied, his hand on her waist. "You know I'd do anything to make you feel safe."

Dani felt butterflies fluttering in her stomach. Jax pressed his body against hers, cupping her face with his hands. Before she could react, he had already pressed his lips against hers.

Her mind went clouded and for a few seconds, Dani struggled to think. This was what she wanted, wasn't it? The kiss that used to feel so good, suddenly felt different. Before they did anything further, she needed answers.

"Jax," she whispered, pulling her head back. He frowned upon her reaction, letting one hand drop to his side. "I know about Wendy."

Jax took a step back, running his fingers through his hair, looking confused. "Gemma?"

Dani nodded. There was no point in denying Gemma had told her, no one else knew about it. "Why didn't you tell me?"

He shook his head. "I don't know," he spoke.

She sighed, placing her hand on her hip. "What are we doing, Jax?"she demanded.

Their relationship went to friendship to something Dani didn't even know what it was. The romance they had wasn't conventional to begin with, but Wendy's news made it even more complicated than it already was. If they were ever going to make it work between them, there could be no secrets, none at all.

"Look," Jax began. "I'm not even sure how I feel about Wendy being pregnant. But I can't force her to get an abortion. I guess I didn't tell you because I was scared."

"I understand that," Dani admitted. "I would be too. But we can't keep going on like this. I mean, what am I to you? An old lady? A croweater?"

Jax sighed. "Dani, all I know is that I care for you. Hell, I would kill for you. If you want to be an old lady, then you can be."

Dani blinked a couple of times, letting his words sink in. "Are you serious about the old lady part?"

Jax snickered. "I said I'd kill for you but you're focusing on being an old lady?"

"I don't expect I need a assassin anytime soon, but if I do, I'll know who to call. But answer my question," she chuckled.

The thought of being an old lady delighted her maybe a little more than it should. Being one was hard work, you had to stand by your man no matter what, attend parties, fundraisers, and she had to manage her own café in the meantime. Dani realized she didn't want to necessarily be an old lady, she wanted to be Jax's old lady.

"Only if you want to," Jax said.

Dani placed her hands on his neck, her body against his. "Yes," she said, looking in his eyes, before his lips met hers.

A/N: A little shorter than normal, but better than nothing right! I've noticed the amount of reviews go down over the past couple of chapters, but please keep on writing them! I love getting them and they are such a huge motivation to me. Anyways, the next chapter will probably be up later this week so I'll (hopefully) see you guys then! Bye :D
