"You're a giant ass," Adara shook her head, as she dropped the tote into the nursery. "I mean, seriously Juice. A big one," Sighing, Adara looked around the freshly painted room. Smiling as she looked around the pale gray walls, that were trimmed with a dark midnight blue border around the ceiling and the floor. "You're lucky I love you brother. Cause if I didn't, I'd have totally hung up on your ass for saying that."

Grinning, she placed her hand on her stomach. "So when are you due back anyway?" She asked, effectively cutting him off, mid rant of his apology. Adara grinned, as Juice let out a snort over the line, she could practically see his lips curing into a wide smile in her mind's eye.

"Sometime next week I think. I have a feeling you want to know because you, wanna put me to work. Don't you?" Juice asked before letting out a few chuckles. Adara could hear the slight whine to his voice, as her lips curved up into a smirk.

"Just with the master and living room, Hap put in a call to a couple of Nomad's to help me with the living room and the nursery," Adara answered, as she pushed herself out of the rocking chair, in the corner. Standing she stretched slightly, before walking out of the room. "Clay had Tig and Sack over the other day, to help with the kitchen and bathroom." Turning, she shut and locked the door.

"Well chances are I'll piss him off, so I'm sure you'll be getting to spend some time with the baby's favorite uncle." Adara snorted, as she moved through the house to the kitchen, as she listened to Juice. "What exactly do you need done anyway?" he asked after a short pause.

"Cable and TV's hooked up and the rooms painted. I'll also need you to do the hook ups for the other rooms too," Adara answered as she stepped into the kitchen. "I'd like the master done first though please. I'll be officially moved in after it is. You'll also be helping move furniture too. Sack, Tig and Jax will help you. I've already got the go ahead for them to help you."

Opening the fridge, Adara looked around before sighing softly. "Damn. No more watermelon." Standing up and closing the door, she looked down at her belly again. "Well I guess this is a good time to say bye, bye now. I have to go to the store."

Snorting, Juice chuckled softly over the line, "Don't you still have to help Gemma out? With that Taste of Charming thing?"

"Nope, the smell of chili actually made me throw up yesterday, when we were cooking it. I got off of help duty. She doesn't want me getting sick." Adara grinned as she went to grab her bag off of the dining room table. "She got Luann and a couple Crow Eaters to help out. I do have to stop by though. Mingle and all that shit."

"Ha. Lucky," Juice grumbled softly. "I'll let you go feed the hell spawn. I'll talk to you later little sis'." And before she could say anything else, Juice ended the call.

Shaking her head, Adara made her way to the front door. Opening it, she slipped through before turning to lock it up. After she was done, she made her way to her car. She needed to stop by the garage before she went anywhere. Humming to herself, she climbed in and started up her Mustang.

~.~.~.~.~.~.~

"That love's gonna kill me," Clay shook his head before going back to the bike in front of him. Adara grinned as she stepped up next to him. Turning his head, he gave her a pointed look. "Yours will too. The both of you are gonna send me to an early grave." Shaking his head after a moment, he began to mutter too low for her to hear.

"But you'll go with our love daddy," Adara grinned as she leaned over to kiss his cheek. "But I also come baring a question. When Juicy gets back, can I steal him for a few days to work around the house?" She asked, as she walked over and sat on one of the stools in the shop.

"Whaddaya need him for?" Clay asked, as he looked up from the bike and over to where she was sitting, "And are you gonna need anyone else?"

"Just him for now but I may need the prospect too," Adara answered with a small shrug. "I need Juice for the cable and TV hook ups. I also need the guest slash storage room painted," she answered, with an infectious smile that lit up her face. Dropping her bag, she crossed her arms as she waited for him to answer her.

"Did you already have your room painted?" He asked, as he shook his head before giving her a small smile. "You can get the retard to do the hook ups and shit. I'll send the prospect over to paint in a day or two." Turning back to the bike, he began looking it over. "When you gonna start on the nursery?"

"The nursery is already done," Adara shrugged innocently, as he turned to give her a curious look. "Happy called in a favor to a few Nomads. They came over while you guys were coming back from Indian Hills. It's all done and pretty."

"So you know what you're havin' then?" He asked, as he turned to look fully at her, as he crossed his arms over his chest. "So, is it another grandson or am I gonna be bustin' heads to keep my granddaughter safe?" The look on his face, clearly said he was hoping for the former.

"I'm not telling you," Adara stood up and walked over to give the older man a kiss. "Happy and I wanna keep this to ourselves" She spoke firmly, as she gave him a pointed look. "Well, and Ma, but I mean come on. Like I was gonna keep that from her," Adara shook her head. "And get to live to see my baby take its first steps."

"She's not gonna tell you, so don't ask." Turning, Adara moved to pick her bag up, she turned back and gave him a serious look. "I'm serious too. I wanna keep this a secret."

"Alright," Clay tossed his hands up, in surrender. "I won't ask. I just won't get you a gift then." He gave her a smirk, clearly thinking he had backed her into a corner.

"Gemma's already decided, that you all are just gonna give her the money, and she'd do all the shopping with Luann," Adara gave him a smirk in return, as she easily out maneuvered the older man. "Now, walk the pregnant woman to her car?" Grinning, as Clay shook his head but let her wrap her hands around his arm none the less.

"Gonna be the death of a few of us baby girl," he sighed as they walked over to the Mustang. Adara simply laughed, before opening the door and slipping in. Dropping her bag on the passenger seat, she pulled the keys out. Putting the key into the ignition, she tried to start the car. Blinking, she turned to Clay before trying to start the car again.

"Pop the hood, baby girl. I'll take a look at it." Clay turned and lifted the hood before ducking under to take a look. As he came up, his lips were turned down in a frown, "Can't see the problem," Scratching his head before stopping and shaking his head.

"Gemma can lend you the SUV until we fix your 'Stang." Sighing, Adara climbed out of the car, along with her purse. Pulling the key off of the ring, she handed it to Clay.

"Come on baby girl. Gemma's still here. Go explain what's up," Clay pushed her softly back towards the garage. "We'll look at the 'Stang, after church." Adara sighed as she nodded, turning she went in search of Gemma.

~.~.~.~.~.~.~

Tossing the door to the Club House open, Adara looked around before glaring brightly as her eyes landed on Half Sack. Walking up, everyone in the room watched as she smacked the blond mad on the side of his head. "Did you eat my chocolate?" She demanded, as she placed her hands on her hips, and jutted them out to the right. "And I swear to God if you did, I will cut you." She narrowed her eyes, as she stared the blond scruffy man down.

"Looks harmless," Piney turned, to give Jax an amused look. "Doesn't she?" Piney continued loudly before turning to Adara. "There's a stash in the kitchen, all your favorites darlin'." Adara turned to give Piney a bright grin, as she walked over and gave the older man a wide smile.

"I love my Zeyde very, very much," Adara mumbled before walking off into the kitchen area. "Whoever bought these is like a God to me." Adara yelled out a few moments later, before walking back into the room eating a snickers bar.

"Those were mine midget," Tig whined as he spotted what she was eating. Adara looked down, before looking at him as her eyes welled up. "Better pay me back for it," he gave her a teasing grin, hoping to calm her down.

"But it's so good," She mumbled before looking back at the chocolate treat in her hand. "And it makes the baby happy. You want to make the baby unhappy?" Lifting her eyes, she narrowed them on the older man. "I will cut you, if you take away my one joy in life."

"She's gonna get a lot worse, before she gets better?" Jax turned to look at Piney. "Isn't she?" The older man simply nodded, as he broke out into laughter. "Adara," Jax called out, before the Jewish woman could do anything. Turning, she gave the blond a bright smile.

"Yes?" She asked, as she stepped away from the curly haired man, to stand in front of Piney and Jax. "What can I help you with, darling brother?" She asked, before she took another bite of her snickers bar.

"You 'ight?" Jax asked, as he nodded his head towards Tig and then to Half-Sack. "You bitin' a lotta head's off today." His face turned up in concern.

Blinking, Adara looked towards the men before looking back at him. "What do you mean?" Tilting her head to the side, she gave him a look of confusion. "They took my chocolate Jax. That's a sin."

Pausing, she flicked her eyes to Tig. "And you stole from a baby." Everyone watched as she turned back to Jax. "I need my chocolate." Pausing, they watched as she took a small bite before continuing. "Or I'll cut you all." Nodding happily, she spun on her heel and walked out of the building.

After a moment of staring at the closed door, they began to flick their eyes to each other. "Is it just me," Tig spoke up after a few seconds. "Or is she getting more like Happy, the more this fucking pregnancy goes on?"

"It's not just you brother," Jax assured. "It's not just you." Shaking his head, he stood up and nodded to everyone. "Meet you guys at the Fundraiser tomorrow."

~.~.~.~.~.~.~

Dancing around, Adara folded the towel in her hands, before placing it into the linen closet in the hallway. Humming, she leaned over and grabbed another before going back to her dancing routine. Turning, she sighed before placing the towel on the shelf, she made her way over to the phone. "Shalom?" She answered as she made her way back to the hallway.

"You sound like you're in a good mood." Adara grinned, as the familiar raspy voice spoke over the phone. "Everything good down there then?" he asked after a moment.

"Yeah," she grinned brightly as he snorted over the line. "Everything's good here babe. Got more shit done around the house. Got two payments from Luann already," Smiling, she tucked the phone between her shoulder and ear. Leaning over she grabbed another towel to fold. "Only thing is that my Mustang died on me and I'm currently borrowing Gem's SUV."

"What's wrong with the car?" He asked after a moment, "And what about the dogs?" He sounded curious as he asked. "I don't hear Abyss barking' for her night time treat."

"That is because, they went to the vet," Adara answered as she placed the towel onto the shelf. "The guy said he found some lumps in Cinn's back leg. He thinks it might be cancer." Blinking, she moved to grab a hold of the phone as she shook her head. Turning, she walked back out to the living room and sat down on the couch. "Abyss apparently got into it with another dog there. I'm not really sure what happened. The prospect took them for me. He rambled about a bunch of shit and I kinda just nodded."

"I'm sure they'll be fine." Adara smiled. While she appreciated Happy saying it, neither of them seemed to believe it. "If not, we'll figure it out."

Smiling, Adara shook her head again. "I already do know what," She shook her head. "If it does take a turn, I don't want any more dogs. We really can't a ford any right now. Maybe when the baby's older, we'll get her a dog. But if we lose Cinn, I don't think I could handle trying to replace her right now. But I'm go over to the vet's tomorrow and see what exactly happened."

"Alright babe, if that's what you want to do." Adara sighed happily as she leaned back into the couch and listened to him speak. "You talk to Clay about the car? And how are you gonna get around?" He asked after a moment. "Never did tell me about what he said."

"Their looking for a replacement for me, Gemma's on their asses about it being safe and all that shit. She's not taking any chances, when her grand baby is involved." Adara smiled as she turned to lay down on the couch. "They mentioned something falling into their hands, so they'll be picking out my new car in a day or two I guess. Until then, it's cruising in the SUV."

"Let them know, I appreciate this babe." Happy spoke up after a moment. "If needed, I can send some money down," he assured after a few seconds. "Let 'em know for me?"

"They know, I know. Hell, we all know. But they wanna do this. They realize how tight money is and they know how tight theirs is. If they wanna shell out for a fucking car, then let them. If not," Adara shrugged as she paused. "Then I'll talk to Luann about some extra work and just buy a four door beater, until I can get something better."

"You know, that won't happen," Happy pointed out after a second. Snorting, she could almost see his lips twitch into a grin. "Luann'll probably cover a car until you could pay her back."

"That's what Ma's thinking," Adara smiled. "But, eh, not much I can do at this point." Turning, she glanced at the plain black circle clock on the wall. "Shit. I need to go baby. I got that Taste of Charming shit tomorrow. And Ma will have my ass if I'm not there after the vet visit."

"Alright," he chuckled softly. "Love you Ishti," he rasped out softly.

"And I love you, Ahava." Adara smiled, as she ended the call. Staring at the phone, she snuggled back for a moment, before pushing herself up and off the couch.

~.~.~.~.~.~.~

Slamming the door, Adara looked around before pushing her sun glasses up. Smiling she walked by the group of bikers, before making her way over to Tig, Bobby and Jax who had just pulled up. Grinning she waved as she stepped up and gave them all a kiss. Turning, she felt herself freeze. Eyes narrowed and jaw set, Adara whirled around to glare at the blond standing next to her.

"What in flying fuck is that piece of shit doing here?" She asked in a harsh whisper. "That fuck-tard shouldn't be anywhere near here Jax." Adara glared as she watched the blond man speaking with April.

"Go check in with Ma." Tilting his head, he gave her a sharp look. "You two go check in with Gemma." Nodding both Tig and Bobby walked off, while Adara lingered around for a moment. "Look. Op's good with this. Go enjoy yourself. Make someone cry," he leaned over to give her cheek a kiss, before pushing her away lightly. "Seriously sis' it's all good."

"Shit better stay that way Jax," Adara turned around, shaking her head as she made her way through the crowd. Smiling and nodding to some people she passed, Adara made her way to the SAMCRO booth as Gemma returned to it. "Hey Ma, aunt Lu," Giving both older women a kiss to their cheek, Adara looked around before slipping her hand over her mouth.

"Are you feelin' any better honey?" Luann asked, as she brought a hand up to Adara's forehead. "Look like your about to lose it babe." Her face dipped down into concern. Adara lifted her hand to wave off her concern.

"Chili," Adara whispered, before making her way out of the booth. "It's upsetting the hell spawn." Shrugging, both women shooed her off. Turning, she grinned as she made her way over to the Elvis booth. Leaning against Tig, she laughed as they watched Bobby with the kids.

"Looks like a fuckin' retard," Tig muttered softly into her ear. Adara laughed softly for a moment before pushing off of the older man. "Gonna go get food?" He asked as she re-hoisted her bag up.

Nodding, she leaned up to give his cheek a soft peck. "Yeah, gonna see how the food is and mingle before Lady Hitler says I've worked enough around here." Grinning, she waved as she walked away. Grinning, she waved and nodded towards people she knew. Pausing, Adara looked over in some of the booths before moving on. Pausing, she turned to see Opie, Donna and the kids coming towards her.

"My munchkins," Adara cried out happily while bending down, she gave both Kenny and Ellie each a hug and a kiss to their cheeks. "How are my two favorite little trouble makers?" Standing up, Adara gave both Opie and Donna a hug. "And the world's greatest parents. How are we?" Smiling, she watched as Donna flicked her eyes around.

"Come on kids," Donna shifted her eyes between Adara and Opie. "Let's go check out some games. Come on." Adara watched as Donna lead the kids away, before cutting her eyes back and up to Opie's own.

"Saw Kyle," Adara looked up in surprise. "Donna doesn't know about him." Blinking, Adara nodded in understanding. Turning, Opie looked down at her before giving her a small smile. "Promise me something?"

"Anything Op, you know that," Adara looked up at him in confusion. Adara was surprised, when he bent down and gave her a tight bear hug.

"You promise me, you'll hold on to the baby." Pulling back, he gave her forehead a kiss before pulling back again to look her in the eyes. "Don't let that baby outta your sights."

"Opie," Adara stared, before realization hit her. "Your kids love you Opie. Stop worrying so much, just give them and Donna a little more time to adjust to you being home."

Looking back passed Opie, Adara spotted Gemma staring at them. "You stop worrying about that shithead too. He might have just barely legal pussy, but you've got the love of a woman and kids who adore you." Adara leaned back to smile brightly at him. "And a Club that stands with you." Leaning forward, she gave him another hug. "I'm gonna go mingle a bit. Go you have fun with your family." Nodding to one another, Adara made her way back towards the SAMCRO booth.

~.~.~.~.~.~.~

"Hey Ma," Adara nodded as she walked back up to the booth. Looking in the direction Gemma was, she smirked before smoothing her face back out. Both women watched as Jax held Kyle up against the wall. "You know how he is Ma."

"Don't mean shit. This is for April and the kids. Not for your fucking brother to have words," Gemma snapped as she narrowed her eyes. They watched as Jax stepped back, after he realized they were watching him with Kyle.

"I wasn't talking about Jax Ma," Adara started before shaking her head. "Kyle's known for opening his trap and pissin' people off." Both women snorted at Adara's statement. "Just let this one slide Ma."

"I'll let that shit slide," Gemma gave her a pointed look, as she stepped closer to Adara. "When that fucker's outta town and we ain't gotta worry about bailing either or them out." Adara nodded, as she stepped away. "Smell not bugging you no more?" Gemma asked, as she flicked her eyes to the chili and back.

"Seems not to be," Adara shrugged, as she stepped up to start helping. "Guess it was just one of those things," Adara gave Gemma a smile before stepping next to Luann. For the next few moments, they all worked together quietly as they served people before Jax showed up.

"Hey," Gemma leaned over and kissed Jax's cheek. Adara and Luann nodded to the blond biker, before going back to serving. "So how are the guys, handling Kyle?" Adara snorted at the subtly asked question.

Leaning over Jax stole a chip for the fold out table, "Nothing to handle." Shrugging, he turned to look at the blond male. "Kyle's dead." Popping the chip into his mouth, he began to chew.

"Well, he's not dead to Opie." Both Gemma and Jax turned to look at the mount of a man, standing off to the side lines, staring at Kyle. Jax turned and squeezed Gemma's arm, before walking off towards his best friend.

~.~.~.~.~.~.~

"Have you two seen Jax?" Looking up Adara and Gemma sighed, as Bobby and Tig stood in front of them. "Hey Bubbala," Bobby leaned over and gave his niece a kiss to her forehead. Adara smiled before nodding to both him and Tig.

"He's with Op." Gemma answered as she went back to pulling the bowls apart. Pausing again she sighed before looking up at them. Narrowing her eyes slightly, she let her tone turn sharp. "Why?" She demanded.

"Boss wants us," Bobby answered, as Tig tossed his hands up in surrender, "Ain't our faults Gemma." Bobby tried to sooth but stopped as Gemma swore softly.

"You've got two more hours in that booth," Gemma sighed as she glared at them both. "God fucking damn it," she muttered before flicking her eyes around before settling them on the two Sons again.

"Sorry mother," Tig tossed out softly before he and Bobby started to walk away. "Come on." Turning, they gave each woman a short wave before they walked off in search of the blond VP.

"Jesus fucking Christ Clay," Gemma snapped before looking up to see Unser, "Hey Wayne." Despite being pissed, Gemma managed a smile for the Chief of Police.

"Sucks being boss," Unser spoke up. "Don't it?" He asked, with a grin to both of them. "Hey Adara honey, how's the baby doing?" He nodded down to her stomach.

"The baby's doing really great," Adara gave the older man a bright grin as she answered, "Besides making me really emotional and violent." Gemma snorted, as she shook her head.

"You know that fried shit's gonna kill you." Gemma smirked at him as she flicked her eyes to what was in his him a bowl, she turned and slide passed Adara. She began to fill it with chili.

"Yeah, 'cause the cancers keepin' me fit and spunky." Unser snorted, as he shot the statement back. Adara laughed softly, as she grabbed him a spoon. Handing it to him, just seconds before Gemma handed him the hot bowl.

Gemma blinked as she spotted Tara walking through the crowd. Pausing as she went to say something, Gemma watched as they younger woman froze up. Flicking her eyes to the area Tara was staring, Gemma frowned as her eyes locked to the PD booth. "Who's that guy behind the grill?" Gemma asked, as she watched Tara spin on her heel and walk away quickly.

Turning the older man, snorted before turning back to give both Gemma and Adara a serious look. "That's our new best friend." Unser spoke up before taking a small bite of chili, "Agent Kohn, of the ATF."

"The fed that's been looking into the Club?" Gemma asked, lips pulling down into a frown. "Is grilling sausages?" Her voice sounded curious, while her eyes kept locked onto the man. Adara frowned, as she flicked her eyes between the man and Unser.

"Must be part of his very special Federal training," The older man smirked, before taking large bite of chili. "Good chili," he praised after a moment. Nodding to both women, he walked away eating the chili.

"Baby girl," Gemma called a few moments later. "Watch the booth." Nodding her head to the three Sons walking towards them, "I'm gonna go let them know." Adara nodded, as she understood the older woman's meaning.

~.~.~.~.~.~.~

Opening the door, Adara slipped in and began looking around. Pausing, she turned to see Piney standing by the pool table. "Zeyde?" She asked, as she made her way over to him.

"Who ya lookin' for darlin'?" he asked, as he dropped a kiss to Adara's forehead. "How was today?" He grinned, as she slipped away from him groaning.

"I was hopping Clay was here. I need to talk to him about burrowing the prospect tomorrow." Pausing she looked at Kyle before turning to look at the door, as the guys walked through. Adara watched as Kyle and Jax nodded to one another. Smirking brightly, she watched as Clay ignored Kyle for a moment. Walking up she gave the older man a kiss to the cheek.

"Nice to see you again Adara," Kyle gave her a smile, as she turned to glare at him. "You're looking real good these days. How far along are you?" He asked after a seconds pause. Adara felt Clay tense next to her, as the blond continued to smile at her.

"Would you please stop talking? You're grossing out my baby. And why don't you go burn in fucking hell?" Narrowing her eyes on him before turning back to Clay, she smiled slightly as the guys broke out into laughter around her. "Can I burrow Sack tomorrow?" She let her lips dip down into a pout. "Please daddy?"

Sighing Clay looked at her for a moment. "You and your mother are gonna kill me." Leaning forward he dropped a kiss onto her forehead. "He'll be there bright and early. You heading home?" He asked, as Adara took a step back.

"Yeah, I look terrible and I feel it. So I'm gonna go home and call Happy. I'm hoping that call will make me feel awesome." Adara laughed as more than half the room broke out into groans. "I'll see you guys tomorrow. Bye," she waved before slipping out of the building.

~.~.~.~.~.~.~

Adara hummed as carried the basket of laundry to her bedroom. "Well they showed you a statue," she began to sing softly, as she bumped the door open with her hip. "Told you to pray." slipping in, she dumped the basket on the bed before going to place it next to the door in the hallway. "They built you a temple and locked you away." Slipping back in, she made her way back to the bed and began to fold the clothes. "Ah," she began to sing a little louder. "But they never told you the price it would pay."

Separating the clothes into piles, Adara began to hum for a moment before singing a loud, "The things that you might have done." Grabbing the socks, she moved to put them away in their drawer. "Only the good die young." Turning back around, she grabbed the jeans and moved towards the closet. "That's what I said! Only the good die young."

Looking up, Adara groaned as she cut her eyes to the clock on the night stand. It was well after midnight. Which meant either a Son or another Old Lady was knocking on her door. Sighing, she finished hanging the last pair of jeans, before making her way out of the room and down the hall. Grabbing, the Glock from the stand by the door, she cracked it opened and looked out. Sighing, she shook her head, before stepping back to let Tig in.

"Hey midget," he grinned at her, as he watched her slip the gun back into the drawer she had pulled it from. "Expecting someone else?" He asked, nodded his head towards the stand.

"It's after midnight Tig," Adara shook her head, before making her way to the kitchen. "You want something to drink?" She asked, as she slipped into the room. Walking over, she stopped in front of the cabinets as she turned to look at him.

"Naw," he answered with a small shake of his head, as he followed her in. "Just wanted to let you know about Kyle." Turning, she watched a childlike grin spread across his face. His blue eyes sparkled with excitement. "Guess what."

Rolling her eyes, she turned to grab a glass from the cabinet before placing it onto the counter. "What did you do, that caused you to pop a boner?" She asked, as she opened the fridge and pulled the orange juice out. Pouring some into her cup, she slipped the container back into the fridge. Turning she leaned against the counter as she grabbed her juice. Taking a sip, she waited for him to tell her.

"Fucker still had his back tattoo," Tig grinned, as he bounced where he stood. "Fucker also decided on fire," his eyes lit up as he told her, "Beautiful Adara. It was fucking beautiful." She snorted in laughter before placing her cup down.

"Enjoyed yourself thoroughly tonight, didn't you?" She asked, as she leaned back against the counter and crossed her arms over her chest. She gave him a curious look as she waited for him to answer.

"What do you mean?" He asked, as he gave her a look of confusion. His head tilted to the side as he crossed his arms, mirroring her position against the counter. "Of course I enjoyed myself to that sight." His lips twisted up into a feral looking smile.

Smiling softly, Adara shook her head. "Weirdo," turning she grabbed her cup to take another sip. "You at least drop him off at the hospital?" She asked after a moment. "Or did you just drop his pussy runnin' ass on to the side of the road?" Tig snorted in laughter at her second question.

"Naw, we dropped him off at St. Thomas. Had April waitin' there for him," Shrugging, the curly haired man leaned back to stretch before he gave her a wide smile. "Figured, you'd like to know what happened to his ass." Blinking, he gave her a devilish grin, "Or at least his back."

Shaking her head, Adara walked over to kiss his cheek. "You're fucking nuts Tig." Stepping back, she went and finished her juice. "That all?" she asked once she was done. Placing the cup into the sink, she turned to give him a curious look.

"Yeah, that's all." Walking over, he patted her head before turning to walk out of the room, "You comin' by the Club House tomorrow?" He asked, as he looked back to see her following him to the door.

"No. Finishing up my work for Luann and having the prospect over to finish painting rooms. Plus I have another visit to the vets again tomorrow," she watched as he opened the door and stepped outside. Slipping up, she leaned against the door, "Might use the puppy eyes on Bobby or you to help so I can officially be moved in here." She gave him a hopeful smile after she was done speaking to him.

"What's wrong with the girls?" he asked as he let his lips curve down into a frown.

"They found a lump on Cinn's leg. The results were supposed to be in today, but they had a back log at the lab. So I go back tomorrow to find out what's up with her," Adara answered, her voice going soft as she bit her bottom lip for a moment before shaking her head. "Abyss got a chunk bitten out of her left hind leg from a stray someone had brought. They want to keep her for a few days to see if she got anything from that dog or not."

Tig shook his head as he ducked his head to drop a kiss to her cheek. "I'll be over to help. And if you need me to go with you tomorrow to the vets, just let me know darlin'." Waving, he walked off and climbed on to his bike. "Don't stay up too late doin' shit."

Adara watched as he slipped his helmet on and then started his bike up. With one more wave, she watched as he pulled off and sped down the street. Shaking her head before slipping back into the house, closing, she locked the door before cutting the lights off. Turning, she made her way back to her room to finish putting the clothes away.

Almost forty minutes later, Adara was curled up under the covers and relaxing back into her bed, when her cell phone began to blare out Nine Inch Nails song Closer. Sighing, she sat up and flipped her phone open. "Hey Ahava," she smiled as she spoke softly into her phone.

"Hey Ishti," Adara's smiled grow as she listened to the raspy voice of Happy. "How was today?" He asked after a moment. She heard him inhale deeply, which meant he was smoking.

"Kyle came to the Taste of Charming," Adara answered as she laidback down, to inform him about what had happened. "You remember him, right?" She asked. After a second he grunted in response. "Well, his ex-wife asked if it would be cool because his kid's band played there. Well shit went down, I don't know all the details, and apparently the fuck-tard still had his back tattoo."

"What'd he choose?" He asked after exhaling loudly, over the line. Adara could see his face lit up in excitement, like Tig's had been.

"I lost my lighter," Adara answered with a smile. After a second, it clicked for him and the next thing she know, her lover was belting out a deep, belly laugh over the phone line. Smiling, Adara shook her head as she waited for Happy to calm down.

After a few moments, she listened to him quiet over the line. "Fuckin' beautiful," Happy rasped out a second later. "Wish I coulda seen it."

"I'm sure, you'll get another chance to one day," Adara smiled at his snort. "Well maybe not, like, next week. But maybe in a few years, you'll get a chicken shit like that." Pausing, she frowned as she shook her head. "On second thought, forget I said that. I don't want something like that going down again. I don't want someone I love getting' locked up like that."

"I know amante," Happy cut her off, thankfully before she could go on to ramble more. "How's my girl doin'?" He asked after a few moments of silence. Adara gave a bright smile to no one at the subject change.

"She's very feisty," Adara answered, as she rested her unused hand, on to her belly. "And she's making mommy into a hormonal raging, ferocious, melodramatic, vicious bitch from hell. Also violent, I've punched like four people in the last week. One was the Deputy Chief too." Adara grinned, as her answer made Hap chuckle lightly over the line. "She's also making everything incredibly simple and incredibly complicated all at once."

"Sounds like," Happy began lowly. "She's gonna take after you then." Adara could almost see the worry on his face, almost as clear as she could hear it in his voice.

"That's okay. It could be worse babe." Adara pointed out after a moment. "She could turn out to be like Gemma. Or like Blossom. At least with me, it's a happy," Adara giggled for a second. "Middle ground for her." Happy gave out another round of chuckles to that.

They were quiet for a moment before Happy spoke up, "And the dogs? How are Cinn and Abyss?"

Adara let out a soft sigh, as she felt her smile slip off her face. "We get Cinn's test results back tomorrow. Find out if its cancer or something else," she murmured quietly before clearing her throat. "But Abyss got bit by a stray someone had brought in. They're gonna keep her for a few days, just to make sure she didn't catch anything for the other dog."

"They aren't going to be charging us for Abyss's stay, because it technically happened on their watch," Adara added after a short beat of silence. "So there's that at least."

Happy hummed. "I'm sure they'll both be fine. They are your dogs after all," he replied with a quiet rumble.
