Chapter 7

A little later, Happy and I head to his house...well, our house. After my things are unpacked, I head to the kitchen to cook. "What are you doing?" he asks. "I thought I'd make dinner." I tell him. "You cook?" he asks. "Yeah. Once upon a time, I wanted to be a chef." I say and he smiles. "You ever think about opening your own restaurant?" he asks. "Yeah. That was my dream actually but didn't pan out. I do still love to cook though. Before I met my ex, I would have friends over once a week for a huge dinner and I would do the cooking. I loved it." I tell him. "Our last President, his mom used to cook family dinners for us club members. Haven't done it since she died." He tells me. Not looking at him, I ask "What would you say to us...maybe...starting that tradition up again?" I ask. "That what you want?" he asks. "It would be nice." I say. He walks over and puts his arms around me while I am cooking and says "If that's what my Old Lady wants, that what my Old Lady gets." he says. I turn my face to kiss him and he says "You're perfect." I smile softly and say "So are you."

I get dinner made and plate our food. Meatloaf stuffed bell peppers, garlic bread and twice baked potatoes. Sitting down to eat, Happy looks at me after taking a couple of bites and says "Holy shit babe. This is amazing." he says. "Thanks." I say almost shyly. "When are you thinking about doing the dinner?" he asks. "I was thinking, maybe this Sunday?" I ask. "That's fine. I'll let everyone know but Lyla and Venus might want to come help." he tells me. "That's fine but just family. I don't want all of those croweaters in our home." I tell him. "That's fine babe. I get it." he tells me and I just smile.

That Sunday, I am in the kitchen with Lyla and Venus and we are making dinner. The guys are all sitting in the living room, talking, drinking and just hanging out. Once dinner is done, we call everyone to the table. I made most of the food and Lyla and Venus just helped with a few odds and ends. Sitting down to eat, Happy is at the head of the table on one end and Chibs at the other since he's the club President. I am sitting to the side of Happy and Althea is sitting to the side of Chibs. Happy gets everyone's attention and I stand and start talking. "First of all, I want to thank you all for being here. Second I want to thank you all for taking me in and making me family. You didn't have to. I am hoping to make this a weekly thing just for all of us to get together as a family to just get away from everything else going on and just be a family with good food, good conversation and love." I say and they all nod.

After my speech, we all start to eat and Tig speaks up. "Happy, brother, you better marry this girl. This shit is fucking amazing." I start laughing and see Happy looking at me with a smile on his face. We all talk and eat and the night goes off without a hitch and after we eat, the ladies and I head to the kitchen to clean up. After everything is done, everyone starts heading home and I head to the shower. Letting the water cascade over me, I feel Happy's arms wrap around me and pull me close. Kissing my neck and shoulder and then turning me around to face him. Kissing me deeply, he lifts me up and enters me slowly. Thrusting in and out, slow and steady. "Harder Happy." I moan but he doesn't change his pace. I find my release and he finds his right behind me. Still inside me, he puts his forehead to mine and I say "Talk to me Happy." Kissing me one more time, he looks into my eyes and says "I love you." I look at him shocked and nudge him to put me down. I get out of the shower and he follows me. "You don't mean that Happy." I say. "What makes you think I don't?" he asks. "You barely know me and..." I start and he cuts me off with a kiss. "I know enough to know I love you. I feel shit with you. All I fucking think about is you. My ma always told me that when I found the one I was meant for that I would know. That she'd be the one thing other than the club that I would die for and I would die for you. It's you. I love you so fucking much and we barely know each other." He tells me. I look at him and see he's looking at me and I see so much in his eyes. I walk over to him and pull him to me and wrap my arms around his neck as he wraps his around my waist. "I love you too Happy." I say softly before his lips meet mine.
