She looked at Happy's face, it started to blur, she felt something tricking from the corner of her mouth. She wiped at her lip, looking at her hand, she saw blood. "Hap?" He turned to look at her, she could see his mouth moving but couldn't hear anything. His arms wrapped around her waist, she looked down, seeing blood starting to spread across the front of her shirt.

She was lifted up in Happy's arms, he carried her to chapel, laying her on the table. She blinked a couple of times, seeing Chibs next to her with his medic back, she closed her eyes, slipping into the dark abyss.

Irene pulled up in front of the house out at the Streams, no one would ever be able to find it, unless they knew where to look. It was the perfect place to hide from enemies, and keep things hidden from prying eyes. She got out of the car, entering the two story farm house, the room in the basement was ready for Devon. All that was needed now, was the opportunity to grab her.

Malcolm had ridden his bike into town, meeting with some guy, that had just gotten kicked out from prospecting for the club. He had some revenge he wanted om Devon and one of the club members. She and Malcolm both were hoping, he could help them get closer to her. She grabbed a beer from the fridge, going into the living room, she sat down on the couch, looking forward to the moment she could make the little snotty bitch pay for choosing the Tellers over her.

Devon sat up bathed in seat, gasping for air, looking around her bedroom. Happy's arms tightened around her waist, he sat up next to her, pulling her against his chest.

"You okay?" She tried to calm her breathing to answer him.

"I had a horrible dream, that Irene came into the clubhouse and shot me...Juice tried to protect me, but I got hit..." His hands cupped her face, looking into her eyes.

"She ain't going to get close to you! And Juice? Really?"

"We were watching stupid videos, you were out doing whatever.." He pulled her down into his arms, holding her close. "It was just a dumb dream." She tried to relax enough to go back to sleep, but sleep evaded her. She settled for resting against him, listening to him sleep the next couple of hours, until it was time to get up. She rolled from the bed, going into the kitchen, she started a pot of coffee and breakfast.

Happy's arms wrapped around her waist, pulling her against his chest. "You get any sleep after your bad dream?"

"Not really, but that's what coffee is for!" She smiled up at him, over her shoulder. She went back to fixing breakfast for the two of them, his arms were still around her waist. She finished making his french toast, scrambled eggs, and bacon sitting it on the table, she cut up some fresh fruit sitting the bowl at her place, with a cup of yogurt.

He looked at her, frowning. "You aren't eating?" She looked at him, smiling, gesturing towards her breakfast.

"I'm eating..." He grabs her, pulling her down on his lap. He wrapped his arms around her waist, bringing his lips to hers.

"You can't call that breakfast." He nodded towards her food, she rolled her eyes, wrapping her arms around his neck.

"After last nights heavy dinner, I needed something light. Besides I'm not dancing every day any more, I have to watch what I eat or I'll get fat."

"You're beautiful!" He smiled at her, kissing her again. She got up from his lap, going to sit down, in her chair. Starting to eat her breakfast, she watched Happy devour his breakfast. "If you keep cooking like this, I'm going to get fat!"

She let out a laugh, grabbing his hand. "I'm sure, you'll find a way to work it off." She finished eating her breakfast, loading the dishwasher, she walked into the living room.

"Rat will be here in a few minutes to stay with you for the day." He pulled you into his arms, kissing you. "Come to the club later?"

She smiled at him, returning his kiss. "I'll be there by this afternoon." She turned going into the bedroom, planning on taking a shower, and get ready for the day. She locked the bedroom door. Going into the bathroom, she turned on the shower, stepping under the spray, she let the hot water hit her.

She spent New Years Eve at the club helping bartend, most of the guys had left for home, or gone back to their rooms with croweaters. There were only a few Nomads hanging around the main room, she had started to clean up a little, throwing away empties. She was finishing up, then going down stairs to dance. She had straightened up from wiping off a table when on of the Nomads grabbed her, pulling her against him.

"Hey baby, let's go!"

She pushed him away from her. "I don't think so."

"It's you job, to please us brothers. Didn't anyone tell you?" His hold was iron tight, she struggled to get away from him. She heard a growl from behind her, she turned her head to see Happy storming towards the Nomad.

"Take your hands off of her. NOW!" The Nomad released her, released her, she rubbed her wrist. "You okay Dev?"

The Nomad looked at Happy. "Sorry Killer, I didn't know you wanted a go at her first. Let me know when you're done, I want a turn."

Happy growled, punching the man in the mouth. "That's Clay's step-daughter! Watch your mouth!" Happy looked at her, taking her hand. "Get your things, I'm taking you home."

"I need to practice dancing for a couple of hours..."

"It's one am..."

"I have an audition when I get back next week. I'll be fine, don't worry." She smiled turning to leave him standing, watching her go. She was down stairs, for two hours, dancing, she never noticed him watching her. It was almost four am, once she finished, she looked up seeing him. "How long have you been there?"

He didn't say anything, he just stood there. "You didn't notice me, the Nomad come have come at you." He was standing in front of her, glaring at her.

"He could barley walk he was so drunk..." His dark eyes gazed down into yours. "I'm going home now." She sat down, pulling off her toe shoes, putting them in her bag. Standing up, she slipped a sweatshirt on, slipping on a pair of slides.

"I'm going to follow you home." He followed her up stairs, turning at the top of the stairs, you were at eye level with him.

"You don't have to, I can get home on my own." She isn't sure what came over her, but she leaned in, kissing him. He froze at first, not doing anything, she pulled away, thinking she made a full of herself. "I'm sorry..." Turning away, she started to walk away from him, he grabbed her, pulling her close, his lips crashing down on hers.

She stepped from the shower wrapping a towel around her, she smiled at the memory of her first kiss with Happy. It didn't amount to much more then that, just a kiss. Once she had finished getting dressed, she went to find Rat in the living room. "Ma'am, Happy wants you to come to the club."

"It's Dev or Devon, not Ma'am." She smiled at him. "I'll be ready in five minutes." She slipped on a pair of shoes, going into the kitchen, she grabbed a travel mug, pouring herself some coffee. She went back into the living room, smiling at Rat. "Let's go." She grabbed her purse, heading towards the garage, pulling her keys from her purse.

She waited for Rat to pull out behind her, before she took off for the club, she kept him in her vision the whole drive. She pulled into the TM lot, finding a parking spot, she climbed out of her car. Noticing that most of the bikes, were missing, she couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. She headed into the office, to see her mom.

"Hey baby!"

"Hey Ma! Where are the guys?" She plopped down on the couch.

"They're running down a lead on Irene and her man." Gemma reached over, touching her hand. "Don't look so worried, they'll take care of it." She nodded her head, getting up from the couch, she walked towards the door.

"I'm going to get something to drink." She made her way across the lot, she heard a bike coming into the lot. She stopped to see who it was, the rider didn't have a kutte on, he stopped in front of her. Jumping off the bike, he grabbed her arm, and started to drag her to his bike. She started to scream, and struggle, fighting him. He threw a punch, knocking her to her knees, he tried to pick her up, carrying her to his bike.

Gemma had stepped out of the office, running towards the biker, hearing Devon screaming for help. Rat had stepped out of the clubhouse, running full force at the biker. Grabbing the man, he threw him to the ground, kicking him in the ribs, grabbing him by his shirt front, he threw several punches until the man passed out.

Gemma helped Devon up from the ground, getting her to the clubhouse, the rumble of bikes could be heard riding in, the two woman stopped turning to see who it was. They were both relieved to see it was the club coming back in from where they'd been. Seeing the man laying on the ground, they surrounded him, asking Rat what had happened.

The two woman had moved into the clubhouse, Devon was sitting at the bar, she had an ice pack on her face. The door swung open, Jax, Happy, and Chibs came in, walking straight for her. Chibs moved the ice pack, examining her face, she winced as his hands touched the bruises that were already forming.

"I'm fine. It's not that bad." She could see that they were upset. She smiled at Chibs, touching his hands. "Don't fuss, I got worse in seventh grade beating Maureen Di Marco for kissing my boyfriend." Chibs and Jax both laughed at her comment.

"I patched you up then too sweet girl!" He kissed her on the forehead, he looked at Happy. "Take care of our girl."

"You know I will!" He walked over to her, cupping her face. "You going to be okay, if I go take care of this asshole?"

"I'll be fine. Go get answers!" He leaned down kissing her, she watched him walking out of the clubhouse. She put the ice pack back on his face, Jax wrapped his arm around her waist.

"Thought I'd stay here with you Dev."

"Really? My big brother doesn't want to go fight my battles for me?"

"That's what Happy is for, now."

She looked at him. "I'll always need my big brother, go kick some ass." She leaned over kissing his cheek. He ran towards the door, catching up with Happy and the other guys. She went over to the couch, laying down resting, waiting for Happy and the others to get back.

Happy had the ex-prospect Wade chained to the lifts. "Who sent you?" He growled at him, he was ready to torture him for answers.

"No one...it was payback for that bitch getting me kicked out!" Jax stepped forward throwing a punch to the man's face.

"You were kicked out because you left a protection detail." He was in the man's face. "Did Irene hire you to take her?"

"I swear Jax I don't know an Irene!" Happy had heard enough, he pulled out a hammer, slamming it into the man's knee. Wade let out a scream, of pain.

"Who sent you!" Happy growled out.

"Some guy named Malcolm, told me if I brought her to him...he'd let me have my turn with her." That was all the guys needed to hear, it was hard to tell which gun killed him, he was shot six times.

She felt his lips on her, waking her up slowly, she smiled, opening her eyes. "Hey sleeping beauty wake up." She wrapped her arms around his neck, looking up at him.

"Hey baby. I guess you're done." He pulled her up off the couch, holding her close to him.

"He's been taken care of. No worries." He kissed her again, carrying her back towards his dorm room.

"My hero!" She batted her eyes at him, laughing as he tossed her on the bed. He growled as he laid down with her, pulling her to him.

"Do I get a hero's welcome?" He grinned at her, she laughed, pushing him down. She straddled his hips, looking down at him.

"This what you had in mind?" His sat up, pulling her shirt off.

"We're getting closer!" He smirked at her.

She had gotten the part in the play she had auditioned for, instead of going home this summer, she'd be spending it in New York. Her mom was excited about her opportunity for her, but disappointed that she wouldn't be coming home anytime soon.

She started rehearsals for Beauty and the Beast, she was playing Belle, she was exhausted most days, but it was well worth it. She was hoping her family would show up for opening night, she was disappointed when they weren't there. As she was leaving the theater, a familiar bald, tattooed biker caught her eye.

"Hap, what are you doing here?" She approached him slowly.

"Gemma told me that you were in a play. I wanted to see you..."

"You came to see Beauty and the Beast?" She smiled at him, finding it hard to believe that a big tough biker came to watch her in this play, of all plays.

"I wanted to see you perform on stage."

"Dev, you coming out with us?" One of her cast mates called to her. She looked up at Happy, holding up one finger. Going over to her cast mate, she whispered something in his ear. He walked away, leaving her, she made her way over to Happy.

"Do you want to go get something to eat?" She smiled at him again, holding at her hand. He took it, leading her to his bike, she gave him directions to a diner near the theater. They sat talking for hours, the sun was coming up, when he drove her back to her apartment. She leaned in kissing him, wrapping her arms around his neck. She pulled away from him, going inside her building. Turning to watch him ride off, she figured he was going to SAMYORK's to sleep.

That night her SAMCRO family showed up, to watch her perform that night. As she walked out of the theater, she saw them all standing there, waiting for her. She broke down in tears, throwing her arms around the necks of the men she loved. She hugged her ma. "What are you guys doing here?"

"Baby, where else would we be. You were wonderful up there tonight, and you looked beautiful!" Gemma said.

"Thanks Ma!" She went out to eat with herr family, getting back home earlier then the night before. She'd only been home for twenty minutes when someone wanted rang into the building. "Yes."

"It's me Dev." Came an all to familiar voice. She looked at her watch, it was nearly mid-night, she wondered what he wanted.

"Come on up!" She was wearing a SAMCRO t-shirt, and a pair of sleep shorts, her hair in a messy bun, there was a loud knocking on the door. She pulled the door open, Happy came in, kicking the door shut. He picked her up, holding her close, kissing her, carrying her to the couch.

"Tell me to leave!" He pulled away, looking down at her. She knew she probably should tell him to leave, to keep them from making a mistake, but she wasn't that strong. She wanted this, she wanted him.

"If you want to leave, there's the door." She looked up at him, waiting for him to decide, he growled before burring his face in the side of her neck.

Pounding on Happy's dorm room door, woke them both up, he started to get up, she pulled him back down kissing him. "We have church in ten minutes." She made a face, she let him go so he could get up and get dressed. She got up, getting dressed, she walked out with him. His hands were on her waist, as they walked out into the main room.

"Wait for me." He leaned down kissing her, she returned his kiss. Watching him walk into chapel, she sat down at the bar, asking the croweater for a water. Sitting at the bar, she tried to ignore the other croweaters milling around her. She heard spinets of conversations, most of them, were about how much they hated her. Happy wasn't giving them the time of day, and that pissed them off.

"Look at her, sitting there. She thinks she's so much better then us!" One of them snarked.

"We should show her a thing or two about how things work around here."

Devon rolled her eyes, trying to keep on ignoring them, one of them bumped into her, dumping beer on her. She calmly got up, not making a fuss, she went back to Happy's room, grabbing a dry shirt. Stupid bitches, she knew how it had to play out, if they pushed too hard, she'd have to put the whores in their place. Walking back into the main room, church had let out, the guys were milling around.

The croweaters were starting to find someone to be with, she stopped seeing one of the bitches that poured beer on her pushing up on Happy. He was trying to get away from her, but her little whore friend was pushing up on him too, he was being double teamed. She exhaled slowly, walking slowly to the bar. Happy's back was to her, she heard several men curse when they saw her.

She grabbed the woman that was standing behind Happy, by the hair, dragging her to the floor. She slammed her head to the floor, grabbing the second one by the hair, and slamming her head against the others. She then sat down on the whores, and looked at them. "Let me make something perfectly clear! He's mine, keep your nasty, used up pussy's away from him. Pass this message on to your friends. Don't forget Gemma raised me, I know where to hide your bodies.!"

"You don't have his crow! He's fair game!" She looked down at them, smirking. Pulling back her fisit she punched them in the face.

"Did I stutter? Did you understand what I said?" They both nodded. "That's what I thought, but just to make sure!" She stood up, and kicked them in the ribs. Happy's arms wrapped around her waist, pulling her back.

"I think they got the message!" His hands caressed her face, he leaned in, kissing her hungrily so everyone in the room got the message that she belonged to him crow or not.
