Chapter 60
Wrapping the towel around my body I turned the shower off and stepped out. I was feeling more relaxed and at ease. Escaping back into the bedroom I grabbed my overnight bag and started rummaging through it afraid of what he had packed for me. Taking out the denim shorts and my guns and roses crop top I threw them onto the bed and continued to look for clean underwear. Coming up empty handed I cursed taking the bag in both hands and throwing it across the room.
Of course he forgot underwear!!
"Still not ready?"
Clenching my fists I turned glaring at him "I have no clean underwear. How could you have forgot to pack me underwear?" I asked trying to keep my cool. I didn't want to argue with him and my time here would be better if we got along. Ignoring me he walked across to where I had thrown my bag and picked it up. Glancing at him my mouth fell open when he pulled out several pair of panties.
"Next time check the zip compartment" He muttered dumping the pants into my hand.
"Sorry" I sighed taking a seat on the bed "I'm sorry for today, I'm sorry for disrespecting you in front of the other brothers. I'm sorry for making your time here bad".
"What's going on with you sweets? We've only been here a day. You homesick?"
"Yeah" I answered truthfully. I wasn't good at being around people I didn't know. When I had first come to New York it had took me a little time to settle in without my mom being there. It seemed so much easier to handle when I had people I knew around me. "I don't know anyone here Blaze. I have no idea how long we are going to be here. How is everyone back home? Has there been retaliation yet?".
"Wow you don't need to worry about that. Everything is getting sorted and I'm following up on your lead we shouldnt be here longer than a week". "But I do worry Blaze. What if something happens to my mom? I couldn't live with myself if something happens to her".
"Hey" He whispered taking my hand in his "Nothing is going to happen to your mom or anyone else for that matter. You need to trust us a little bit more darlin'. Get some clothes on and I'll meet you out front okay?".
"Okay" I sighed as the door closed behind him.
Once I was ready I grabbed my bag putting it over my shoulder and making my way through the clubhouse.
"And you said you had no going out clothes! Woot woo give us a twirl Ava" Lexi giggled causing my full face to turn red. "He's out front but remember be back here for 4".
Walking the rest of the way with my head down I sighed a breath of relief once I made it outside. Catching sight of Blaze I noticed him talking in a hushed whisper to a fellow brother, one I had yet to meet.
"Ava this is Mick" Blaze said as I approached them. Giving him a small smile a yelp escaped my mouth as he wrapped his arms around me and pulled me into a tight hug. Placing my feet firmly back onto the ground I glanced at Blaze before setting my gaze back on Mick. "That's how I greet family darlin' I was your dads old VP before this little shit came along" He grinned punching Blaze on the shoulder. "You tell uncle Mick here if he's not treating you right darlin' and I'll sort him out ain't that right Blazy boy" He laughed
"I'm not-.."
"I'll always treat her right. Franko would have my balls if I didn't" Blaze smirked cutting me off.
"And I would have your head! She's a keeper Blaze don't let your dick rule your heart boy!. Anyway nice to see you again darlin' and Blaze I'll contact you later with what I find".
"Again?" I asked not realising I had voiced my thoughts.Belonging to NôvelDrama.Org.
"I can remember you running about the lot when you were a nipper. The only little girl that had everyone wrapped around there finger" He grinned ruffling my hair "it's nice to see you turned into a beautiful young girl".
Watching him walk away I frowned. Another person from my past that I had no recognition of. "That ones got a big heart" Blaze muttered as he mounted his bike. "It's gonna get the old bastard killed one day. Jump on sweets".
"He's seems lovely! Where are we going?" I asked taking the helmet and making sure it was securely fasten. Mounting the bike I wrapped my arms around his waist.
"If I told you I'd have to kill you".
Rolling my eyes I held him tighter as he turned on the ignition and sped out of the lot.
"Why did you bring me out here?" I asked taking in the beautiful scenery in front of me.
"This is where I come when I'm visiting it gives me time to clear my head. I thought since you're feeling homesick you'd like a little peace and quiet away from the club".
"It's beautiful" I breathed in the fresh air as I walked a little closer to the edge. Looking down I noticed how high up we actually were. "How did you find this place?".
"Come sit" He said patting the space beside him. Following his order I took a seat next to him running my fingers through the soft grass.
"I found this place a good few years ago, around the time I lost my son".
His son?!
"I was married to a girl named Eve, I married her because I thought I had too. She was never my old lady but we fucked around a lot and when she came to me pregnant I thought it was for the best if I married her for the kids sake".
"What happened?" I whispered
"She relapsed died of an overdose with my kid inside her. Kid was born at 17 weeks with half his stomach missing and the chance of him surviving was slim. They did all they could but the little man couldn't handle it".
I didn't realise I was crying until I tasted the saltiness of my tears. No one should ever have to go through that.
"It still kills me not knowing why she went back on the drugs. She was clean for 7 months before she found out she was pregnant. I didn't love her but she was still the mother of my child. Who would harm there own kid like that?" He asked clenching his fists.
Wiping away my tears I placed my hand on top of his and gently squeezed "I'm so sorry Blaze I wish I knew what to say".
"You don't have to say anything sweets I just wanted to clear that up before you hear it from someone else". Taking a smoke from his cut he pulled his hand from mine so he could light it up.
"I like it out here" I whispered moving
my hand so I could place it back
I
over his. He really wasn't a bad guy and I didn't give him the credit he deserves. Here I was moaning like a child because I was homesick and he didn't complain once about being here. Having to deal with the memory of losing his child. The memory's of it happening haunting him every time he's here.
"You're the only person I've brought out here. Your the only one I'll ever bring out here". Taking my hand he brought it to his lips placing a gently kiss on my knuckles. Grabbing his hand both of mine I brought it to
my chest. "I'm here Blaze please remember that and I know we don't
always get along but I am a very good listener".
"Just a good listener?" He whispered he face suddenly very close to mine. Gulping I sunk my teeth into my bottom lip looking directly into his eye. "I think your more than just a good listener darlin'." Feeling his breath fan my face I felt my eyelids flutter until they were closed. The roughness of his fingers against my cheek had the hairs on the back of my neck standing and the delightful shivers running down my spine.
"So much more" and before I knew it his lips were against mine and I didn't stop him.
"You drive me insane" He whispered softly against my lips. "I can't stop thinking about you ever since the first day I laid eyes on you all those years ago". With his hands holding my cheeks I could do nothing but look into his eyes. "What's holding you back sweets?".
"Holding me back?" I questioned not sure I understood where he was going with this.
"From being my old lady? Letting me claim you. God I love touching you" He groaned his hands falling from my cheeks and running down my arms. "Claim me? That's taking it a little too far don't you think?" I wasn't an animal!
"Not in my lifestyle darlin' we claim what's ours and protect what's ours. Your dad claimed your mom when she was sixteen and look at them now." "They weren't together for years" I snorted "I don't think this lifestyle is for me Blaze".
