Chapter 14

Waking up the next morning, I am snuggled into Happy's chest. I feel him kiss the top of my head and I look up at him. "Thank you baby." He says and I kiss his chest. "Anything you need baby." I tell him. We hold each other for a few more minutes when I hear giggling coming from the other end of the house and food cooking. We get up and dressed and head into the kitchen and see Gabe walking around the kitchen and Tia talking to him and making him laugh. He turns and sees me and smiles. "Mama." he says as he walks to me and hugs my leg. He sees Happy and reaches for him saying "Dada." Happy picks him up and he hugs him before he starts reaching for me. I take him from Happy and he snuggles into me like he always does.

After breakfast, I help clean the kitchen while Happy has Gabe in the living room. When we go to leave, Tia hugs me and says "Take care of our boys." I smile and say "Always Tia. Call us if you need anything at all." I tell her and she smiles softly at me. Happy hugs her goodbye and she kisses Gabe's little cheeks before we head home.

Once we get home, we get inside and one we're settled, he calls Jax and lets him know that we are home before ending the call. "Everything okay?" I ask. "Yeah. Just letting Jax know we're back. Got church in the morning but the rest of the night, I'm all yours." he tells me and I smirk. "Are you now?" I ask. "Oh yeah." he says before kissing me and Gabe walks over to us and pats Happy's leg. Happy breaks the kiss to look at our son and Gabe is scowling at Happy and tries to climb into my lap saying "Mamama." I start laughing and say "He doesn't like you kissing me." Happy tickles Gabe and says "Get used to it kid. I love your Mama." he tells Gabe and kisses me again while Gabe snuggles closer to me.

Once Gabe is bathed and sleeping, I am sitting in the nursery rocking him and just watching him sleep. Happy comes to the door and asks "You okay baby?" I look up at him and smile softly. He comes over and kneels in front of me. "Talk to me." He says. "I'm okay baby. Just not wanting to take anything for granted. I never thought I'd be a wife or a mom and here I am with a husband that loves me and a little boy that is completely perfect." I tell him. "He's an amazing kid. But you baby, you made me work for that shit." he says laughing softly. He takes Gabe from me and puts him in the crib before taking my hand and leading me out of the nursery and to the bedroom. "What are you doing Happy?" I ask when he leads me into the bathroom. I look inside and see candles lit around the bathtub and a bubble bath drawn. He starts to undress and says "I thought we could take a bath together." he says. I look at him a little shocked and say "Who are you and what did you do with my husband?" He smirks at me and says "Alright smart ass. You've been so supportive these last few days and I wanted to do something to show you I appreciate it." he tells me. I kiss him softly and say "I will always be here for you." I get undressed and we get into the tub, him leaning back against the back of the tub and me leaning back against him. He wraps his arms around me and we just sit there quietly while he rubs his fingers lightly up and down my sides. I turn my head to look at him and he kisses me softly. I love this man more than anything.
