“Was that the Big Littles?” Remy asks, stepping up to my side.
“Yup.”
“Up to no good?”
“Yup.”
Remy lets out a long sigh, “Marx has called Church.”
“Thanks, sweetheart.”
She bumps my shoulder gently and I turn to follow her inside. I’ve got a belly full of brownies and the Diesel problem is partially under control. Things are feeling good.
Willa
“Oh, hey Willa!” Lovely beams as I wander into the MC common room.
“Hey, Lovely,” I smile and then let out an “oof” when she pulls me in for a tight hug. She is deceptively strong.
“I didn’t know you were coming, this is perfect timing!” she says, clapping her hands and beaming at me.
“Yeah, I ah, didn’t realize I was coming either.” I mumble.
“Rhodie and Gus had business and I needed a ride after Willa’s massage,” Chewy says, throwing her thumb over her shoulder before leaving the room.
“Wait, wait, wait, I need more details,” Blanche says power walking into the common room. “Chewy got a massage?” Her voice raises at that bit of information and after massaging Chewy, I know why. She raises a finger, “Don’t tell me yet, let me message the girls.” Her fingers fly over her phone and the next thing alerts start going off in all directions.
“May as well take a seat,” Lovely says with a soft smile.
I plop down in a recliner in the corner and squirm a little as Mad Dog’s scent envelops me. Not in a bad way. Which scares me a little more than it should. I, yet again, blame hormones and my traitorous vagina.
“OK, we’re here!” Kaia and Jazz yell as they rush in, joining Ana, Nat, Mira, Lovely, and Violet.
“Chewy and Remy will be in church,” Joy whispers to me as she takes a seat beside me.
She’s a newly minted Ol Lady, and damn it looks good on her. When she first moved in beside me it was written all over her what she’s been through. I guess I saw a little of myself in there, and took her and her little girl under my wing. Joy is like my sister from another mister, and when she was claimed by Switch, a good, upstanding man, I was over the moon for her. He allows her to breathe, to grow and to be the woman she should have always been. Confident. Sassy.
“OK, aaaand GO!” Nat claps.
“Um, Chewy came in for a massage?” I answer, unsure what else they need to know.
“And…?” Mira waves her hands in the air to keep me going.
“Well, it was…interesting.” They all share a look and grin at me. It’s slightly unsettling.
“Did she get naked? I can’t imagine Chewy naked,” Mira says, face screwed up.
“I’m fucking hot, naked!” Chewy calls out from somewhere in the house.
“She has such freakish hearing,” Ana mutters.
“Apparently Tav has the same hearing.” Blanche adds, “Not that I’d know because I’m sure that cheeky bastard ignores me half the time.”
Jazz looks scandalized, “You’ve only been together like four years, how can he be deaf to you already?”
“It’s a Tombs man thing. Jules won’t hear a thing I say unless it's me bitching about him under my breath and then he hears it from the neighbor's yard.” Vi rolls her eyes.
Nat nods before turning her gaze back to me. “Now spill.”
