CHAPTER 4:
After Happy 'calmly' asked her to 'get inside the fucking house' Lennox knew very well that being stubborn and sitting inside Amber's car wasn't a choice.
She turned to Amber and thanked her softly before getting out of the car. As Lennox walked past Happy he murmured "You Me Living room".
When she was about to open the front door she regretfully turned her head a little seeing Happy leaning on Amber's car while he had his head lowered to the driver seat window. He and Amber seemed to be exchanging goodbyes.
Lennox turned away from the couple and walked into the house. Closing the door behind her.
She sank on to the couch and placed her purse on the floor. It hadn't been a long day but for some odd reason she was out of energy.
Who was she kidding. It was Happy draining the living life out of her. And he didn't even know it.
Lennox stared blankly at the ceiling. As her mind drifted.
You would think if she had met Happy the first day she started working with Huguette maybe...just maybe she wouldn't be stuck in such puppy love. On her first day as a house nurse to Huguette Lowman, Lennox was expecting the horrors of Huguette's son. But when she arrived to work there was no son. Only the sweet old Huguette.
The elderly woman informed Lennox that her son was away on business matters for about a year and half.
So Lennox never got to meet Happy and Happy vice versa never got to scare away Huguette "incompetent" little nurse. Luckily for Lennox, Huguette was a delight and would share stories of her 'adorable' son who's name was Happy.
Lennox had her first contact with Happy via phone. Happy would call every Tuesday at 2:45pm. Never early and never late. He would call to see how Huguette was doing.
The only words he would say is. "How's Ma." and "Okay"
There was no Hello or Goodbye.
But Lennox tried her best to fill in the blank times he was missing while he was away the best she could during his time of absence.
She would paint him verbal images of brunch outings and long strolls in the park.
The sound of Amber's car driving away broke Lennox's memory train. She heard the door open and close.
Silent.
Happy sat across from Lennox with a toothpick in his mouth as he stared at the small girl in front of him.
She was avoiding eye contact.
"You getting in to stranger's car now too? You're on a roll today little girl." - Happy's deep voice echoed through the empty house
"She's not a stranger." - Lennox
"You go have lunch with her and plan vacations?" - Happy
"No." - Lennox"
"Then she's a stranger" - Happy
"She work's at your Auto Repair Shop I've seen her a few times in passing at Gemma's house. She's not a complete stranger" - Lennox
Happy rubbed his bald head. Clearly getting a headache. How was he suppose to explain to this girl sitting in front of him that Amber was a sweetbutt not am employee.
"Don't be jumpin in to random as cars."-Happy
Lennox stood up. She had enough of this odd behavior from him. First at Gemma's event and now this. As she was about to walk away Happy spoke.
"Sit." - Happy
"Im done talking to you and being scolded for one day." - Lennox
"Im not done. Sit."- Happy clenched his teeth together. He wasn't good with people talking back to him let alone a girl not listening. Normally they would be on their knees before he sat down.
"I rather stand" - Lennox
"I don't like looking up at people. Sit." - Happy pointed to the empty sofa in front of him with his finger.
Lennox sat down slowly. Not pushing the stupid matter any further. The sooner he was done the sooner he would leave. But then the statement popped into her mind.'Why would HE leave HIS own house? She should leave.'
"You don't walk away from me when I'm talking to you not now or this afternoon." - Happy
"I'll be out by the end of this week" - Lennox spoke. This took Happy off gaurd for a second.
"What." - Happy rolled his toothpick to the other side of his mouth irrataed
"I've been informed the owner is back in town." -Lennox
"Who told you that bullshit" - Happy
"It doesn't matter. The owner is back and wont be needing me to house watch." -Lennox
"You've seen this 'owner'?" - Happy gave a cold smile playing along with her little idea.
"I'm looking at him right now" - Lennox looked straight into Happys dark orbs.
Happy stopped chewing his toothpick for a half a second before she notice any change occurred.
"Do I look like I have only 2 numbers as my IQ?" - Happy
"What?" - Lennox
"Do you think I would be sleeping in the work dorms if I owned this shit? Does it look like I've lost my mind to pay someone to house sit my own home?"-Happy
Lennox did question the idea too. It was sorta odd.
"No but ..." - Lennox was cut off by Happy's phone ringing.
Happy pulled his burner out of his pocket and held it to his ear. No 'hello' or 'who is this'
"Be there in 5" - Happy shut the phone and looked back to Lennox
"We aren't done here. I'll be back." -Happy gave Lennox a glace over and walked out of the house.
Lennox let out a deep breath she was apparently holding. She stood up and peeked out the window and watched Happy ride off.
The evening went by slow for Lennox. Happy didn't come back like he stated and she waited for him like an idiot.
Drying the wet plates off in the sink Lennox heard a harsh knock on the door startling her to drop a plate. Shattering it all over the floor.
The loud knock came again.
Lennox moved across the kitchen carefully and went to open the door. Half-Sack was standing there a bit jittery
"Hey...Nox i i..no...no... we yes we sorta need you to come down to the shop" - Half Sack
"Is everything okay?" - Lennox
"Not really. We can't reach Tara so... You have to help"- Half Sack seemed to be in a panic
"Okay let me grab my coat." - Lennox reached over and pulled her cardigan over her shoulders and followed Half Sack outside
"What happened?" - Lennox spoke as she got in the van with Half Sack
"Tig got shot" - Half Sack
"Come again?" - Lennox thought she must have misheard the information
"Shot like gun shot right in the ass. I was suppose to bring Tara but I can't find her no where." - Half Sack
"She's in surgery at St. Thomas right now. But I don't have any medical equipment to help Tig. He need to go to St. Thomas" - Lennox
"Can't go. Plus Tara got a whole supply of medical shit for us at the shop."
Lennox just stared at Half Sack like a deer in headlights at the news of Tig being shot at and that her boss Dr. Tara Knowles steals medical supplies for an auto body shop.
The ride over was silent which got Half Sack more jittery. He knew Happy would flip out if he found out Lennox was brought in to club business but Tig was dying and Tara wasn't there. Half Sack decided Lennox was the best chance Tig got.
Half Sack also prayed that the Killer was still out finishing up Tig's shooter so he could sneak Lennox into the club house with out the murderer knowing.
The van pulled up to TM and Half Sack ushered Lennox in.
"Lad the fuck took ya so long!"-Chibs was trying to figure out Tig's butt situation as Juice's finger was blocking the blood from spilling out more.
Chibs looked over and saw Lennox.
"SHITE. Ya brought her. Ya numb nut." - Chibs
"Hap can kill the prospect later. Nox get over here" -Gemma looked to Lennox.
Gemma was seated next to Tig holding his hand whisper calming words into the drunk man's ears.
Lennox walked over to Chibs assessing the situation.
"This is above me pay grade Doc." - Chibs let her know that this was out of his knowledge.
"I got it Chibs. Thank you." - Lennox pulled off her jacket and on the gloves Chibs fished out for her.
Lennox then slide over to where Chibs was standing looking at the bullet wound.
******
Happy finished the job like always. Clean and painful.
He pulled out his burner and texted Juice
= The Doc there with Tig? = HAPPY
= The Doc's about to finish up. Looking good.= JUICE
He shut his phone and rode out of the murder scene.
Before every night like habit he would ride by the house to make sure her ass was in the house and everything was locked. So like always he rode up a few houses down so she wouldn't hear his bike. He cut the engine and began walking over to the house. As he turned the corner he checked his watch. It was odd normally her lights would be out by now but the lights were on. Happy quickened his step towards the house. When he saw the door was slightly ajar Happy pulled his glock out of his pants and ran towards the door. He swung it open and the sound of nothing scared him.
For the first time he was in fact scared.
He walked past the living room and in to the kitchen where is saw a few dishes that need to be put away and a shattered plate on the floor. Happy turned around and sprinted up the stairs.
"Lennox!" - Happy
No answer
"LENNOX!" - Happy
No aswer
Happy looked through the whole house before pulling his phone out. Dialing the VP of Charming's number
"Nos is gone." - Happy
"Club House." -Jax only stated that and hung up. Jax and everyone else didn't know how the Killer would react if he came in knowing Lennox was at the Club House. Best he sees it for himself than letting the Killer plan out his murder while riding.
Happy on the other hand was seeing black and was pissed off that Jax would want him at the Club House and not send a few brothers here to the scene of the crime.
Happy rode hard and fast towards the club house and almost tossed his bike as he got off of it. Walking in everything was calm. Happy didn't like calm. Happy looked over and saw some people near Tig and his naked bum.
Then he saw Gemma walking over. Before she could speak Happy cut her off.
"Tig?" - Happy
"Good. By the way.."-Gemma
"Where's Jax?" - Happy
Gemma pointed to the dorms. She knew Happy was in his state of single thoughts and she wasn't going to get in-between.
As Happy walked towards the dorms Amber swayed towards him.
"Hap. I'm sorry about this afternoon. I was just offering her a ride." - Amber linked her arms in his as she pushed her breasts up against him Happy didn't say anything but pulled his arm out as he continued walking toward's jax's room
"Hap." - Amber
"HAP!" - Amber said a little louder.
Happy looked over with a growel
"What."- Happy
Amber pushed her body towards Happy and slid her hand down his pants.
"I don't have time for this shit." - Happy shoved her off and began to walk again
Amber took a deep breath as if she had finally settled on an idea.
She reach up and grabbed his face and pushed her lips on to his. Her tongue slide in and she gave a small moan. As her right hand felt it's way down his body she rubbed on him as her hand turned the door knob behind Happy pushing him in.
Happy and Amber stumbled in to his room when he torn Amber off of him.
As he got the whore away his eyes saw Lennox sitting on the floor of HIS ROOM covered in blood. Lennox was looking up at Happy.
*******
Few Minutes Before:
Tig had been patched up and finished.
Lennox was feeling a little dizzy as she came down from the sudden surprise visit from Half Sack.
"There's a bathroom at the end of the hallway. Why don't you wash up and I'll bring you some clothes." - Gemma softly moved Lennox over towards the dorm washroom area.
As Gemma watch Lennox slowly move away "Thanks. You saved him Doc." - Gemma spoke.
Lennox gave a small smile and continued walking.
"Lennox?" - Amber
Lennox turned over to the voice.
Amber was sitting at the bar dolled up.
"I knew it was you! Im was so scared Tiggy was going to die. You really did save his life you know."- Amber jumped off the stool
"Thank you." - Lennox
"You know the public bathroom here is super gross you'll catch some kind of STD." - Amber pulled Lennox towards one of the dorm rooms and pulled out a key from her chest opening it. Lennox didn't say much. She was tired and still in a bit of shock. And coming down from the rush of adrenaline
"I use this room often it should be fine for you to wash up in here. Way cleaner" - Amber gave a little push and closed the door behind Lennox.
As soon as the door closed Lennox fell to the floor. Her legs gave out on her and she just sat there for what seemed like a few minutes.
She wasn't thinking about anything. She was just in a daze staring out in to nothing. She looked down at herself. She was in her jammies covered in Tigs blood. She wasn't even in the right mind set to have taken the bloody gloves.
That when the door busted open and she saw Happy and Amber locked lips and all.
Lennox just stared at Happy. No anger no sadness she just looked at him blankly.
