Letters To An Outlaw(Redwood Originals)*****completed****

10.

It had been a few weeks since she heard anything from the club then one day late in afternoon a knock.

Rough night? She questioned looking over at the two boys anxious and relieved that I answered so quickly. You look like you've been through hell I commented to which only grunting back occurred.

Dark wide eyes eagerly waiting for her to respond. At his nodd she grabbed the front of his kutte pulling him inside. Shit dont bleed all over my floor. She scurried to grab the closest thing to a towel.

We were ambushed damn Mexicans. Juice offered trying desperately to not seem as hurt as he looked.. He sat down heavily on the kitchen stool as Chibs limped behind trying to keep up. Still trying to act like the pain wasn't affecting him but I could tell he was suffering.

He followed her directions meeting her gaze as he tried to act tough. Her eyes a sparkle of green so bright they lit up even in the shadows of her apartment. They complimented her perfectly pale skin. Looking into them now was comforting. She had a way of making him feel safe. He knew he could trust her with his life, tell her anything and she would understand completely whatever it was he had to say. She brought the frozen bag up to the knott above his eye making him wince back into focus. Sorry she squinted with apologetic eyes before turning towards her first aid kit. Was Opie with you. She questioned with a hint of worry still lingering in the sound of her voice. He knew she was just trying to make conversation but he wished she would have picked a different topic. No Opies fine He interjected. Trying to not show the jealousy that hit him so abruptly. He cringed more at the idea of the two of them rather than the sting of the alcohol she used to disinfect the cut.

I appreciate you taking care of us he added. She scowled at him looking a little offended at the suggestion. I would be pissed if you thought you couldn't come here for protection or patching up or hell even just to rest. Take that off for me I'll clean it she said at his stained tshirt. He furrowed as if unable to understand what it was she was asking. Please. Her eyes swept over the nakedness of his torso and back up to meet his in a way that stirred something strange inside of him. A knowing look crossed over her face. Okay she said. Her skin had to be soft as soft as he remembered her lips being. Surely that night of passion reminded the spark of desire he held for her. He shook his head banishing the thought.

Will you be staying through the night. We dont mean to put you out. Don't be rediculous ill make up the couch. She pulls out the booze and watches as Chibs Stitches juices leg up.

An odd burning feeling churned in her stomach like a small flame set on high and left to burn. She stared at his thick fingers and wondered what it would feel like to have those hard working calloused hands on her. His hazel eyes flicked up to her own.

Can you hand me the towel there on the chair. He turned to do as she asked. Nikki watched as his back muscles moved under his kutte as he reached up. He turned giving her a wink as he handed it to her. She felt the hotness bolt of electricity shoot threw her hand and up her arm as there hands touched in the exchange.

A strange thought had occurred to her suddenly. She had him here all night and that made her stomach flip.

As he leaned back into the couch. He threw his arm over the back like he was completely content with where he was. Here are some sheets and few pillows she said getting the guys comfortable.

Thanks Nikki Juice spouts back. Your welcome, I'll be down the hall if you need anything.  She met his eyes again. A silent reminder of their last encounter. 

Chibs looks down at the tiny couch, Juice had already sat comfortably down in and found himself walking down that same hall. Debating weather or not to just leave her to her dreams. Deciding against it he found himself outside her door watching her tiny form stretch across the sheets. A clear view of her chest heaving in and out. startled to see him standing there she calls out to him. Come here. You can lay with me at least. she says pulling him towards the bed. He eyed the bed she was sitting on before taking a seat next to her.
