A Bikers Love (Chibs Telford)

Chapter 3 Part 2

  The familiar buzz of a tattoo gun revealed Happy working on her back

"Property of Matt"

Matt is being crossed out and "Nobody" is being inked in graffiti style; an old tattoo she is having fixed

"Ha finally getting rid of that piece of shit tattoo, ya Bonnie?"

She pulls a face, "Yeah, Tig decided he was sick of seeing his name so he called Hap to fix it.

I keep telling him I had no choice, but it's still bothering him," Bonnie shrugs a shoulder.

"Matt was a dick," I agreed.

"Yeah she still won't tell me how it happened...can you shed any light on it?" Tig frowned at me curiously,

"All you need to know is it was a drunk night," I warned him

"Yeah. Drunk night," Bonnie snorted,

"Why don't I believe you?" Tig narrowed his eyes at the pair of us and Bonnie caved,

"Ok fine," she sighed

I squared my shoulders and looked directly at Tig, "I made Bonnie a promise to never tell anyone and I won't" Bonnie smiled at me thinly and began to explain. I could see the pain on her face as she recounted the event,

"My ex was hugely possessive and he decided I was his to do with as he pleased. He got one of his asshole friends to ink his name on me so everyone knew that I belonged to him,"

Happy stopped the tattoo gun and jerked his head up as he wiped the new ink,

"He marked you against your will?"

Bonnie reached for my hand and I gave hers a reassuring squeeze,

"Yea Hap, he did a lot of things against my will. But with Lottie's help I got away from

Him. Enough about that, lets see you gimme something awesome in its place, Killer,"

I watched Tig and Happy exchange meaningful looks behind Bonnie's back. I had to tell her what I'd seen.

"When you are done with Bonnie, I need her for a quick minute,"

"OK little girl,"Happy rasped on cue, "time for a break,"

"Bonnie, I need to speak with you real quick, alone," I muttered into her ear. She grabbed my arm as she jumped down from the bar and dragged me into the chapel. She turned and closed the doors behind us,

"What's up baby?" a frown creased her forehead in concern at my urgency. I inhaled deeply and let out a steadying breath,

"On the way here I noticed something," I glanced down at the floor. I didn't want to tell her, didn't want to hurt her with the news. I knew she needed to know, though. She needed to be on her guard.

Bonnie tipped my head back to look at her,

"What did you notice?"

I coughed, still wanting to protect her from the truth,

"Matt,"

"Shit," Bonnie paled, "Shit, what? Are you sure it was him?"

"Shh, shh, don't panic but yes, I'd know that ugly mug anywhere"

"How the fuck did he find me? Shit! Shit! Shit! I gotta go, Lottie. I gotta-I can't stay!"

Bonnie bolted for the door and I grabbed her arm, pulling her back,

"Bonnie, wait. This time we have help"

"No, no, I can't ask the guys, just-gotta...shit, shit, shit!"
