A Fickle Affair

Chapter 15

Chapter 15

I got a text from Happy that he is going to be late but will be home. I head home from work and see Gemma messing with my doorknob. "Can I help you, Gemma?" I asked and she jumps. Turning to look at me she asks "Did you change the locks?" I cross my arms over my chest and say "Yeah. I did. Why do you need in my house especially when I am not here?" I asked. "I wanted to see what all you needed so I could stock up the house." she says. "Bull shit. You have never stocked up my house. I take care of that. Now, why are you trying to get into my house when I am not here?" I asked again. "Well, Sweetheart," she starts sarcastically. "Rumor has it that you been bedding another SON. Becoming a croweater, are we?" she asked smirking. Taking a deep breath to get myself together. "First of all, Gemma, who I 'bed' is none of your business. Second, there is no reason that you need to be in my house, at all without me inviting you. And third, you are not my mother so I don't have to explain shit to you. Now, I've had a long day and I am ready to take a hot bath and have a glass of wine and relax." I say and head towards the door. "You wouldn't even have this house if it weren't for the club." she seethes. I turn and get face to face with her. "I have my house because of my mom and dad. Not the club. It was paid for with money from Cara Cara, not the club. Dad made sure of it. Now, I catch you trying to get into my house again, I'm taking it to the club. Goodnight Gemma." I tell her and she storms to her SUV and drives off.

Walking into the house, I put my things down and head to the tub after locking the door. I changed the locks after I was attacked and Juice put in surveillance equipment for me to make me feels safer. After getting out of the tub, I am sitting in bed reading when Happy comes into the bedroom. "Hey babe." he says kissing me softly. "Hey. You okay?" I asked. "Yeah. Just a long day." he says. "Get a shower and I'll rub your back." I tell him. He kisses me again and heads to the shower. Once he's done, he comes to bed in just his boxers and lays on his stomach. I start rubbing his neck and shoulders and start working my way down. "That feels good. How was your day?" he asked. "Good for the most part. The girls are all in on the series so we spent what time we weren't filming, talking about where to go from here with it." I say. "Good. I'm happy for you babe." he says. I kiss his shoulder blades. "I had a visit from Gemma." I tell him. "What'd she want?" he asked. He knows she hasn't spoken to me much since I cut things off with Jax and Opie. "She was trying to get into the house when I got home and caught her." I tell him. He turns to look at me and I continue. "She started this shit that there's a rumor that I'm bedding another SON and that she wanted to know if it's true. I told her it wasn't her business even if I was. She started talking about how I wouldn't have this house if it weren't for the club. I had to remind her that my mom and dad paid for this house for me with Cara Cara money, not club money." I finish. "You okay?" he asked rolling me off of him. "Yeah. Gemma always tries to start shit. But I told her that if I found out that she was trying to get into my house again when I'm not here that I will take it to the club and we would see where that landed her." I tell him. "Good. I'll take care of it." he says. He lays down and pulls me to him. "You want people to know we're together?" he asked. "Well, yeah. I'm not ashamed of it." I tell him and he smile. "Good. There's a party at the club Friday. We can tell them then." he says. "Sounds good. You have to be anywhere tomorrow?" I asked. "Just working at TM as far as I know but you know how things can change." he says. "Yeah." I say. I lean up and kiss him and he rolls us over where he's hovering over me. Looking at me he says "Are you happy?" I smirk and say "No, you are." He shakes his head and asked again. "Are you happy?" I smile softly and say, "Yeah. I'm happy." He kisses me deeply and begins to make love to me. Once we both reach our release, he pulls me into his side and kisses the top of my head and we both drift off to sleep.

The next day, I am at work and Jax comes by. "Hey Cam." he says knocking on my office door. "Hey Jax. What's up?" I ask, hoping everything is okay. "Heard you got a visit from Ma last night." he says. I sigh. "Yeah. She was trying to get into my house. She said there's a rumor that I'm bedding another SON and asked if I was becoming a croweater." I tell him. "Happy know?" he asked. "I told him about her trying to get in and about her questioning me but not about her calling me a croweater." I tell him. "You guys going to tell everyone?" he asked. "Yeah. At the party Friday night." I tell him. "Good." he says. We talk a little more before he heads out the door.

Friday night comes and I get ready for the party. We get on Happy's bike and head to the clubhouse. Getting off his bike, he intertwines our fingers as we walk into the clubhouse. Once we walk in the door, all eyes are on us. Gemma sees us and walks over to me. "Like I said, croweater." I step in front of Happy and say "I'm not a fucking croweater. Old Lady or not, I am still the kid of a member that has done a lot of shit for this club. More than you have. I won't be disrespected. I was fucking raped, Gemma. Happy helped me get past that shit. Made me whole again. Me and Happy are together and before you start running your mouth because I broke you baby boy's heart? Jax knows. So does Opie and they are good with it. Now, back the fuck off. I'm not weak like the croweaters are. I have my place, right by my man's side. Don't ever speak to me like that or, I know of a few secrets that might feel the need to come to light." I say and she backs off. Happy pulls me to him and says "Proud of you babe. You did good." No one stands up to Gemma but I don't care. My mom and dad taught me not to take shit off anyone and if she thinks you have even an ounce of weakness she will try to manipulate you into shit that you can't get out of. I was taught not to trust her from a young age. My mom might have been her friend but she didn't trust Gemma as far as she could throw her. Neither do I."

The guys started coming over, one by one, asking how I am and how we ended up together. Tig walks over and pulls me outside. We walk to the picnic tables and sit down. "What's up Tiggy?" I asked. He's been like a father to me since Daddy went inside. "Are you good?" he asked. "Yeah, Pop, I'm good." I say. "How the hell did you end up with him?" he asked laughing a little. "I had a friend tell me that I needed to take that power back and suggested that I find someone I trusted to help me get comfortable with myself again and with the physical part of things and Happy helped me out and we kinda fell for each other." I tell him. "He didn't hurt you did he?" he asked seriously. "No, Pop. He's been gentle and patient with me. And before you ask, I told him everything." He pulls me into a hug and says "Love you kid." I smile and say "Love you too Tigger."
