Two Weeks Later

"I want out of this room!"

Happy shook his head as he sat on the side of the bed and pulled a t-shirt on before reaching for his boots. The last few days had been hell with Jessie. She was bored and going stir crazy and he was literally ready to shoot her. Thankfully, he had a run today with Jax and Tig.

"Little girl, you know you aren't allowed out of bed until Tara clears you, and that's really all there is to say about it."

Jessie scoffed as she shook her head. She watched him stand up and move to the dresser to grab his wallet and rings. "No, that's all you have to say about it. I have plenty to say on the subject. I feel perfectly fine, Hap."

He leaned against the dresser and stared at his old lady in disbelief before shaking his head. "Really? Your ribs aren't still sore, or your leg? I didn't wake up last night to hear you groaning in pain because I was laying too close?"

Jessie growled and he had to bite back a chuckle. She hated when he proved her wrong about anything. "For goodness sake! That stuff will go away eventually." He lifted a brow when she stuck her bottom lip out in an actual pout. "You won't even make love to me."

He rolled his eyes as he walked to the side of the bed to lean down and kiss her goodbye. "Because you haven't been cleared for that either, Jess." He gave her a kiss and laid a hand on the side of her face to keep her looking up at him. "I promise, baby, the second Tara clears you for normal activity, I'll take you home so you can sleep in our bed and I'll fuck you like a pornstar."

He watched Jessie fight the grin that was trying to form and breathed a sigh of relief. Maybe the current hissy fit was about over. She stuck out a pinkie and lifted a brow. "You swear?"

His lips quirked up in a grin as he wrapped his much larger pinkie around hers. "I swear. You won't be able to remember your name when I'm through with you."

Jessie laughed then, shaking her head. "Don't make promises that your dick can't keep, big boy."

Happy chuckled and shook his head as turned for the door. "Believe me, little girl, me and my dick are on the same page. Try not to drive everyone crazy today, ok? I think Tara is coming by when she's done at the hospital."

Jessie sighed. "I'm not making any promises. Be careful, ok? I love you, Hap."

Happy winked at her before walking out the door. "I love you too, Jess."

Happy walked out to find Jax, Tig, Chibs, and Opie sitting at the bar drinking coffee. He leaned on the bar and looked at Jax and Tig. "We ready to go?"

Jax chuckled as he eyed Happy. "You seem to be in a hurry this morning. Jessie throwing another tantrum?"

Happy shook his head. "You have no idea, man. I love her but I'm gonna have to kill her soon."

Jax snickered as Tig and Chibs grinned. Opie shook his head. "You all are assholes. Imagine it from Jessie's point of view. She's used to being active and doing what she wants. All of a sudden, she's on lockdown, not allowed to move."

Happy nodded as he stuck a toothpick in his mouth. "I get it, man, but bored Jessie I can handle. It's bored and horny Jessie that I'm having trouble with."

Tig covered his ears as the others laughed. "I don't need to hear this shit, man."

Chibs cleared his throat and grinned. "Well, Hap, ye could be gentle about it and help her out with that part."

Opie scoffed. "Please. If it's a level below wild monkey sex, Happy can't do it."

Happy smirked. "You're not wrong." He looked at Tig and his smirk widened. "It's a good thing my old lady likes it that way too, huh?"

Tig groaned as the others laughed at his facial expression. "Jesus, man, can we go already? I'm nauseous."

Happy and Jax nodded before Happy looked at Chibs and Opie. "You guys got her?"

Chibs nodded and grinned. "Aye, we'll keep her occupied."

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

"Gin."

Opie muttered a curse as he threw his cards down on the bed. "That's five hands in a row. I give up."

Jessie chuckled as she gathered the cards together to shuffle. "Nobody likes a quitter, Ope."

He just grinned as the door opened and Tara stuck her head in. "How's the patient?"

Opie chuckled. "Bored."

Tara laughed as she walked in. "Well, if you'll disappear, I'll check her out. Maybe we can get her out of here."

Opie stood and fist bumped Jessie before leaving the two women alone. After a thorough examination, Tara looked at Jessie and nodded. "You look good. The soreness will go away in time, and the more you move around, the more it'll help loosen up your muscles." She grinned. "Actually, you were ready to go last week, but I decided to keep you another week."

Jessie glared at her friend. "Seriously?"

Tara nodded. "Yeah, I knew that if I released you, you'd go right back to doing everything you normally do, so I decided to let you heal another week. You're good to go."

Jessie got up from the bed and hugged Tara. "Thank god! Help me pack my shit."

Once everything was packed up, Jessie strode out to the main room of the clubhouse, grinning at Opie and Chibs. "Ok, who's giving me a ride home?"

Chibs shook his head as Opie high-fived Jessie. "Darlin, ye should wait for Happy to get back. He'll get ye home."

Jessie groaned, making the two men laugh. "Oh come on, I just want to go home and take a long hot shower. Happy could take the rest of the evening to get home. Please?"

Chibs didn't look convinced but Opie just laughed and shook his head as he stood up. "Come on, I'll take you home. We can load everything in the truck."
