The Club of Lies (Happy Lowman)

Everything Changes

I was sitting at the bar taking inventory when mom came into the clubhouse. "Honey why do you always end up pissing off Tig?"

"Because he earns it, why do you always side with Tig?"

"I don't always side with Tig." As she finished her sentence Tig walked in and sat at the bar.

"Can I get a beer?" Tig asked

"Last one we have at the moment so enjoy."

"Thanks I think we should finish that talk."

"That conversation ended the second you bitch slapped me."

"You earned it for talking back to a club member."

"Tig either go outside and join the crew out there or shut up because nothing is stopping me from taking this Vodka bottle and hitting you over the head with it."

"You really think you'd succeed in that act?"

"Yeah," I got closer to him so mom couldn't hear even if she was almost out of the door, "Tiggy you understand the only people in this charter that have a problem with me is Clay and yourself, I go missing or anything you and Clay will be the ones blamed and I wouldn't be surprised if you guys go missing as well." I stood back up and grabbed the list of alcohol the bar needed, and started for the door to give it to mom who was now heading to the office.

"Remember babygirl I have no problem killing a girl."

"And I have no problem killing a crew member." I opened the door and walked the list to mom.

"You really shouldn't start a fight you can't finish."

"Who said I couldn't finish it?" Mom just looked at me and sighed.

I went back to the bar, I was about to go behind it when Tig grabbed me by the arm and dragged me to the extra room. I tried hitting him but he just laughed. "Ain't so strong when you don't have Happy around are you." He threw me to the floor and hit my jaw extremely hard. "We are gonna finish that damn conversation and this time nobody is going to interrupt us."

"Fine just get off me." I felt his fist again, and he got off of me. I could feel and taste the blood. I reached up to my lip and pulled my finger back cover in blood. I ended up spitting out blood, right as the clubhouse door opened.

"Lass you in here?"

"Yeah in the bedroom I'll be out in a few." I looked at Tig wiping my lip again, "You better hurry."

"Oh I'm done just wanted you to know I can get you anytime I truly want to." He walked out first and I followed soon behind him not bothering to look in the mirror at my reflection.

Tig left outside and I walked behind the bar as Chibs was standing up, "We're out of be.... Lass your face."

I was about to answer when I heard Jax pull up. Chibs and I walked outside to meet him as he parked. "May what happened to you?" Jax parked and asked me, starting to look me over. "him?" Jax whispered asking me just as Happy started approaching.

"I'm fine, lets just say he wasn't happy how our last conversation ended, but I promise that I'm fine." Happy reached us, looking at me and I faked a smile.

"I'm heading home if you need a ride, and to get away from that jackass." He pointed to Tig

"Something tells me that isn't going to be easy." Jax said wrapping his arm around me.

"I have to know why he's all uptight and abusive?"

"I'd love to tell you but I can't" I said kissing him on the cheek and we walked over to his bike.
