The Mechanic

Part 16

Since the guys had gotten out of prison, everything with the club was fairly quiet, apart from the rising tension between Clay and Piney which they didn't bother to hide from everyone that something was going on between them.

Putting the stuff with the club to one side, things between Happy and I hasn't been weird since the night of Opie's wedding. I would say that was the first and last time that we had sex but that would be a lie. Since Happy got patched in samcro, he ended up buying a house just outside Charming which he allowed me to stay over there most nights during the week. With this being said, Happy and I continued to have sex ever since that night in secret but we both knew that deep down that the guys was getting suspicious of Happy as he didn't pay much attention to any of the crow eaters anymore like he normally would.

The sound of the radio blasted through the garage as I was laying on a skateboard underneath a car as I was fixing it as Happy was working on another to the right of me. We made small chatter between us but with TM being fairly busy and Happy not being of a talker anyway, things remained fairly silent between us as we continued to work.

"Letty can I ask you something?" Happy spoke breaking the silence.

"What?" I replied as I changed tools.

"Will you be my old lady?" Happy asked

Removing myself from underneath car, I looked up at him shocked. It wasn't a secret to anyone that Happy didn't want anything serious with any women and it also wasn't a secret that I felt the same way about being an old lady.

"What?" I asked with a shocked tone in my voice as I sat on the skateboard looking up at him still.

"I want you to be my old lady" Happy repeated

"Why would you want me to be your old lady, anyhow?" I asked as I stood up to meet his gaze.

"So I can kiss you whenever I want" Happy smirked standing in front of me.

"I know how the whole claim thing works but I can't be your old lady, it's just too much." I slightly stuttered as the smirk dropped from his face.

Leaving Happy standing there confused and shocked, I ordered one of the guys at the garage to finish off the car I was working on as I walked off to the clubhouse.

------------------------------

A couple of weeks had passed since I rejected Happy's offer to be his old lady and we hadn't spoke to each other since. Things between us didn't look too good as both of us had been avoiding each other and walking out of the room whenever the other one walked in. I also stopped staying over at Happy's house leaving me to stay at the clubhouse full time again which at this point, everyone clicked on that there was something going on between us.

Walking out of my dorm in one of Tig's hoodies and a pair of my oversized boxers, I found Piney sat at the bar drinking as I placed himself next to him.

"Need a drinking buddy?" I asked

Piney didn't hesitate to pour me a shot glass as a smile appeared on my face as I brought the shot glass to my lips. Piney and I continued to drinks shots as Gemma walked in with Tig's crazy daughter trailing behind her causing me to shoot a confused look at her.

"Auntie Letty" Dawn smiled at she started to hug me.

"What are you doing here?" I said slightly patting her back as I didn't bother to return her hug.

"I'm here to see my dad." She commented

"More like take some shit from him" I slightly muttered loud enough for her to hear causing Piney started to laugh as we watched her walking off to sit beside Chucky at the sofa.
