Orion could feel Jackson's dislike. He didn't let it get to him. He knew what it was about. Jackson thought Orion was pursuing Grace. He wasn't in fact. Grace was beautiful and sexy. He loved her cheekiness. He was not actively pursuing her though.
He wanted to get to know her. If things turned romantic between them, he would be happy with that. If they didn't and they only became good friends, well he could be happy with that too. Just at that moment he knew he wanted Grace to be a part of his life, how didn't matter just yet.
"I agree. We do need to strike, and if your guy Nate can gather the intel....I say we use it to formulate a plan. Soon as we can. We will be getting a large shipment of weapons sometime this week."
Ryder watched as Grace and then Derek approached his sister. He wanted to talk to her alone. He had some questions for her. He had her about the bathroom scene. He wanted her to know it had all been taken care of. He also figured she was worried about Cole.
His men declined the invitation to party. They would not partake if their President wasn't. They socialized a bit, but overall they were waiting on Orion. They were on a business call as far as they were concerned.
Orion's eyes lingered on Devil and Cadence's hands. They were holding hands. He found that to be a point of interest. Was that why Reapers had come to their aid? Were Devil and Cadie dating again? He was not happy about that possibility. Not because Devil was Reaper, well that had a small part to deal with it. They had been rivals so long. He would need a bit of time to get comfortable with the idea of one of their women dating a Reaper. His main issue was the thought of Cadence with a member of an MC.
In Orion's eyes that would be the worse thing. He knew what they were like. He knew their beliefs on relationships. He did not want Cadence to be treated in such a poor manner. He knew how he was, and Cadence could never be an Old Lady. Whatever went on between her and her partner would always be his business, and he would not allow any man to disrespect his sister. Brother or not. That sh*t was not going to fly.
Orion switched his attention. He did not want to jump to conclusions. He also did not want to stare. That was just plain rude! He caught Jackson staring at him. Ryder got up and walked over to him.
"You have something you want to say to me. I can tell, and I rather you just say it now. So we can clear the air."
Cadence hugged Grace back. She really wanted to talk to her in private. She knew it would not happened any time soon. Orion was watching her. Derek was watching her. Devil was shadowing her. She had so many sets of eyes on her, and tons of ears about her.
"Grace....can you show me to the ladies room ?" Cadence asked, and hoped Devil would not follow them. She really did not want him standing guard outside the bathroom. That would just be a tad uncomfortable for her.
Devil stepped away from Cadence. He skimmed the room until he found who he was looking for. Orion. He was talking to Jackson, so Devil excused himself. He gave Grace's shoulder a gentle squeeze as he walked by. Letting her know he understood her look.
Devil went off to the bar and helped himself to a beer. He just stood off to the side watching everything unfold. He slowly made his way over to Derek. He didn't say anything to him. Just sort of stood in his general vicinity. He wasn't sure really what was going on, he wanted to be filled in but knew now wasn't the time.

Dereck was a little bummed that they did not want to stay and celebrate, but that just meant there would be more beer for them. "Nate is really a force to be reckoned with. He is our secret weapon." Dereck smacked Nate on the shoulder, smiling proudly as his own personal assassin. Once he realized that Grace and Cadence were going to go to the bathroom together, he backed off, and instead when to the bar where Devil joined him soon after. "What the hell is wrong with Cadie?" Dereck kept his voice low, his eyes were not watching the interaction happening between Jackson and Orion.
When Orion approached him, Jackson stood up, clenching his jaw as the man spoke. They were supposed to have a truce, and Jackson would not do anything against the truce, but that did not mean that he was going to let Orion ******** around with Grace's feelings. "I can see the way you look at Grace, and I don't like it. Just think of it as she is spoken for. She's mine." He straightened out his cut, moving to walk past Orion, brushing past his shoulder as he did so. He had nothing more to say to the man, other than the warning that Grace was spoken for, and he needed to keep his distance.
Dereck was intrigued by the interaction between Jackson and Orion. It must have been about Grace, given the look on Jackson's face. Dereck leaned over to Devil. "Find out what that was all about, go see if Jackson will fill you in. The last thing we need is for him to ******** up the progress we have made with the Angels." He brought his beer to his lips, watching as Grace exited the bathroom, followed by Cadence. Pulling out his phone, he decided he would write to her instead of talking, since there was no way they could have any privacy right now.
Hey, u ok?
Once the message was sent, his blue eyes watched to make sure she would receive it.

Grace smiled at her friend, following her into the bathroom for a moment. From the look on her face, Grace could tell that Cadie was upset with Devil, despite the fact that they may have walked in hand in hand. Grace pulled herself up to sit on the sink, and let her eyes soften on Cadie. "All guys think with their dicks. I will give him a piece of my mind if you want me to.." She hopped down, and turned on the shower, making sure to grab Cadie a towel and some shower essentials from the closet. "Take a shower, and calm down. You look like s**t, girl. Nobody will bother you, I promise. Just make sure to latch the lock. I'm going to go give Devil a piece of my mind." She kissed her friend on the forehead, making her way out of the bathroom.
Almost as soon as she stepped outside, Jackson was walking towards one of the rooms in the back of the club, and as he passed her he grabbed her arm, dragging her to the back. In the back was almost like a storage room, there were bottles upon bottles of alcohol, and even a pool table they couldn't get to fit in the main room.
Once they reached the room, Jackson closed the door behind him, walking towards Grace until she was leaning against the pool table. His eyes were dark, and he had them narrowed at her as he leaned in close to her face. "You need to stay away from Orion, got it? You were mine first, and always have been." His one arm wrapped around her waist, his hand moving up under her shirt to rest on the small of her back, and his free hand was holding the side of her neck.

Orion shook his head. If Grace was truly Jackson's she wouldn't be flirting with him. Sure it wasn't all out flirting but it was flirting. Even as mildly as it was. Any Old Lady would know better then to flirt with another man, in case it got back to her man.
He wasn't here to fight though. Or start trouble. Jackson wanted him to steer clear of Grace. Fine. Good luck trying to keep her away from him. If she was truly interested she would contact him. Then he would simply get the truth out of her.
He wasn't into drama. He wasn't into bedding another man's girl. That was not what he was into. There were too many unattached women out there. No need to wrong a Brother and make an enemy over a piece of a*s. Not that he saw Grace as just a piece. She was someone worth getting to know.
His phone went off and he quickly read the message. He was both surprised and nervous by the message he read.
"Time to ride out. I have to get to the hospital." He gave the biggest smile of his life.
"It's time!" He announced and his men clapped him on the back and congratulated him before they all took off. The men quickly took off in the direction of the hospital.
Cadence glanced at the phone, she read the message but did not respond immediately. Grace was moving and she wanted to stay close to her. This was not her home turf. The truce may be in place but that did not stop the women from being catty b*itches to one another. Women had their own turmoil and pecking order that had nothing to do with the Club.
"Devil is fine....Devil is....Devil. I don't take him seriously. He has two heads and only enough blood to think with one of them at a time after all." She joked and gave a small smile. It hurt to smile!
"I will get cleaned up....then...we should find somewhere to talk." She made sure the door was locked, and even triple checked before she started to undress.
She picked up her phone and decided she should text Derek back before she showered. She looked at her phone, not sure what answer to give. The typical breezy fun loving f*ck it all Cadie, or the real her who was struggling with her feelings.
I'm alive? So....I guess I am technically okay? I know I don't like my normal radiant self, but I assure you. I will live to fight another day. She hit send. She didn't want to talk emotions here or now. She wanted to drink till she passed out. Then wake up and do it all over. Until she truly forgot all that had happened.
Devil had been tracking Jackson. Determined to find out what had transpired between him and Orion. He watched as Jackson grabbed Grace and pulled her into the storage area. He crept in silently. Watching and listening to the pair. As he watched Jackson's brutish behavior his blood started to boil.
He closed the distance between them, yanked him away from Grace and punched him square in the face. He took a fighting stance, ready to hit Jackson again if the man came at him.
"You keep your damn hands off her. What the hell is wrong with you?!" He had no doubt in his mind that had Derek witnessed what had just happened, he to would be having a go at Jackson.
Cadence was now showered and dressed. She was sipping a large glass of rum and Dr. Pepper. She was situated off in the back of the room. She was actually a bit upset her Brother left her. The one time she wanted him hovering about and being all big brotherly, and he ditched her! She used the stirrer to stir her drink as she looked around for Grace.
Orion actually felt emotional. He could not fully grasp everything he was feeling. He beamed with pride down at his daughter. To him, she was the most beautiful and perfect thing he had ever laid eyes on. His ex was whining and complaining. Trying to get his attention but he flat out ignored her.
They were threw, and the baby's birth did not change that. In fact the woman had not wanted to even have the baby. It was money and gifts that had changed her mind. Orion just stared at the tiny pink bundle in his arms with amazement. Kill snapped a picture with his phone and sent it to Orion.
"Picture of the new proud Papa Bear and his tiny Cub. Congratulations again man. Really, this is a blessing to us all. A new beautiful niece in our lives!" Orion looked up and offered the baby to him. Kill immediately accepted.
"Did you ever decide on a name for her?" He asked as he took her in his arms.
"Actually....once I saw her...it came to me. Isabelle."
"Ahhhh. Isabelle. A beautiful name, for an even more beautiful little girl."
The rest of the men were anxiously waiting in the waiting area. They would not leave until they got to see the Princess of the Angels. They paced the room, and tried to sneak past the nurses who chased them back to the waiting area.

Dereck let his eyes follow all of the men as they left, standing watch until their bikes were out of the parking lot. It looked like Orion's kid was finally here, which was a good thing, considering Dereck had a bit of an idea about the events that transpired with Orion and his ex. Once they all left he wandered around a bit, looking for Cadence and Grace, and when they were nowhere to be found he situated himself at the bar, making some mixed drinks for himself.
It wasn't until Cadence emerged from the bathroom, looking a little more put together then she had before. He did not bother asking her what she wanted to drink, instead he allowed her to wander about and make her own drink before he approached her, taking the seat next to her at the bar. From the look of the text she had sent him, she was not doing so well after what had happened last night. He brought his glass to his lips, his blue eyes searching her face for any kind of answers. "Your text message was not very convincing." He smiled at her, wanting to try and lighten up the mood between them. Ever since she was sitting with him in his thinking place, he had started feeling an attraction towards her. Not because of her looks, or who she was related to, but because of who she was as a person. She was something much, much more respectable then the whores that frequented their club. "Wanna go back to my thinking spot? So you can tell me what it is that is bothering you?" His hand moved and he placed it on top of her own.

Grace was staring at Jackson, and had opened her mouth to say something to him when Devil came in, pulling Jackson away from her and proceeded to punch him in the face. Grace gasped loudly, quickly jumping in between the two men, holding her hands against both of their chests when Jackson stood up, wiping blood from his nose. "Okay, let's all just calm down a little bit.." She turned to Jackson, who was glaring at Devil.
He smacked Grace's hand from his chest, pointing his finger at Devil. "What the ********, Grace? Are you ******** Dev, too? First me, then Orion, Nate, and now Devil too?" He was fuming, almost too mad to even realize what he was saying.
Grace shook her head, sighing loudly. 'Jackson, you are drunk. You are saying some really hurtful things." She looked between the two men, and Jackson stormed out of the room. Grace turned to Devil, rubbing the back of her neck. "I'm sorry about that. I just....he can't get over how I don't want to be with him." She bit her lip, frowning.

Cadence stared down at her drink when Derek joined her. She wasn't sure what to say.
"i guess I need to work on my lying huh?" She glanced up at him then back at her cup. She took a big gulp of her drink. She brushed her hair back and sucked in a huge lungful of air.
"I killed someone last night, and thought Kong was going to die on me. He is okay....but the blood. It just seemed like it was everywhere! I was at fault for everything last night! It was all my fault! I decided an out of town bar was what I needed, but I never bothered to check if it had any affiliations with local gangs or clubs. I could have gotten us all killed! i was so stupid and careless! I killed someone. I know in your world people get hurt and killed regularly...but I have never so much as truly punched anyone, let alone kill someone. His blood was all over me! It was in my hair! On my hands! On my face! His blood was soaked into my clothes. Kill hosed me off at the Club, then disposed of my clothes. then he finally let me shower. All the Angels acted as if what I did was a normal everyday thing/. I can't stop it from popping into my mind. When I close my eyes I can see that guy....I can see the surprised expression on his face...." All the words came rushing out. She was talking so fast, the words ran together. She started to cry.
"This is all my fault!" She wailed as she pressed her hands to her face. The sobs were shaking her tiny frame. She got up so fast her chair fell over and she hurried from the main room.
Devil nearly picked Grace up and physically moved her to get to Jackson. He resisted though his accusations were making it so hard for Dev to control himself. He watched Jackson leave in a huff.
"Grace, I don't give a f*ck who he thinks he is! V.P. or not, he says some sh*t like that about you again, or puts his hands on you again....he is going to find himself a long time resident at the hospital here in town. I will make sure it is here too, so you can't be his Nurse. He would enjoy that too much and mistake you working for actual interest in him." Pathetic a*shole." Devil turned and walked out.
He didn't want Grace's excuses or apologies on Jackson's behalf. Jackson was out of line, and needed to be put back in place. He walked back to the main room and planted his a** on a bar stool. He ordered two double shots and a beer to get started. He was so angry. He could feel his self control slipping away every time he heard or caught sight of Jackson.
His dark eyes looked stormy, it matched his mood in fact. Jackson was his Brother, but as of late....he had been doing a lot of things he could not get behind. Brother or not Devil had morals. Morals that Jackson's current behavior were at odds with.

Dereck watched Cadence, and as she continued on, spilling her heart out to him he could not help but feel a twinge of pain for her. He could remember the first time he killed someone, and it was not as easy as it looked now. For weeks he had dreamed of the face of the man he killed, his lifeless eyes haunted him.
When she covered her face he reached out his hand to comfort her, but instead she shot out of her chair like a rocket, running out of the main room.
Dereck was not about to let her get away, especially since when women were hysterical they made bad choices, and if she got into some other kind of trouble or something he could not forgive himself.
Dereck was hot on her trail, finding her in one of the hallways in the back of the club. He wasted no time in walking up to her and pulling her into a hug, letting his large, muscled arms hold her gently, yet firmly against him. "You cannot blame yourself for the mistakes of others. When I made my first kill, I was haunted by the man's lifeless eyes for weeks. I thought that I was never going to be able to make it in this kind of world." His hands moved up, stroking her raven hair. "It does not get easier, but when it comes down to saving yourself or killing someone, the decision is clear." He placed his chin down on the top of her head, allowing her to cry into his chest.

Grace stood in the back room for a few moments before she made her way out to where Devil was sitting. He looked as angry as he was, so that was not a good thing. She approached him slowly, gently placing her hand on his shoulder. Her voice was soft. "Dev, do you mind giving me a ride home?" She swallowed hard, unsure of if he was angry with her or just Jackson. Either way she wanted him to be the one to take her home, seeing as Dereck was nowhere to be found, and Devil would not allow her to ask Jackson.

Cadence cried for quite sometime. Eventually the poor young woman was all cried out for the time being. She eventually was doing nothing more then sniffling, and ha the occasional hiccup.
"You smell really good." She murmured, her face still against his chest. She moved her hand up an down his back slowly. A gesture that probably calmed him, but currently was aiding in calming her.
Her phone went off and she sighed. Slowly she pulled away and got out her phone. She opened the attachment to the text. It was the picture Kill took, and a close up of the baby. She turned the phone to Derek.
"Looks like I am an Aunt. I wasn't even aware Orion was expecting a little bundle of poop. Oh, I mean joy!" She glanced at the picture once more before she put her phone away.
"I guess I should go see her.... Seeing as how she is my niece I guess...." Her greenish eyes lingered on Derek a moment. She opened her mouth as if ready to say something but thought better of it.
"You said you didn't think you were cut out for this life....after that first kill. What made you say?" She finally asked.
Devil set his shot glass down, and stood up. He nodded his head. "Did you want to let your Brother know your heading out?" He pointed to one of the side rooms.
"He is probably back there somewhere. Oh...if you see Cadence can you tell her to wait in m room till I get back? I totally about her... I will take her home a little later." He would take her home if she wanted to go, he was hoping he could convince her to stay with him though. He of course would not tell Grace that. His dark eyes went to the corner of the bar where loud cheering was suddenly coming from.

Dereck held on to Cadence until she was completely done crying, and smiled when she showed him the picture of the new baby. It was always nice when a new addition arrived, but what got him laughing was the way she spoke of the baby. "You don't look thrilled to be an aunt." Hs blue eyes looked down at her, his smile fading a little when she said that she needed to go and meet the baby. "Want me to give you a ride?" They had some cars out back that they used for runs, or if someone had their bike in repairs. It was her next question that left him silent for a few seconds, looking to the ground while deep in thought. "You know, I wanted better for my town. The only way was to become the voice of Greensville. The protectors. If I can keep all these innocents from having to deal with what we do, then I am doing something right." He smiled down at her, leaning in to give her a kiss on her forehead.
Grace smiled at Devil shaking her head. "Dereck is a big boy, he will figure out where I left to." She walked over to the table, making sure to grab her phone before she returned to Devil. "One day I will be able to be my own person, but until then you are required to help me out." She laughed at him for a moment, before walking outside with him. The ride to her house was short, and when she arrived she gave Devil a hug, patting him on the shoulder. "Thanks again for defending me against Jackson...and for the ride." With that said she turned around and went inside her house, looking back to wave at Devil before he left back to the club.

Cadence shrugged. "It's not that I am not excited to be an Aunt. I love babies.Who doesn't?! What I don't like is that I had no idea this was even happening. I hate feeling like....an after thought to everyone. Like they just remember I existed." She waved the words away.
"It doesn't matter. It isn't about me. The world does not revolve around me, much to my displeasure!" She chuckled. At what he said next she grew quiet.
"I understand....Your kinda Batman like in your reasoning. You will take on all the bad and wickedness for the sake of your townsmen." She smiled at him.
"Sweet in a twisted sort of way. I say that only because then...the question to follow is, what makes you think it is your job, and only your job?" She was surprised when his warm lips brushed against her rapidly cooling flesh.
"If you don't mind...I will take a ride. Seeing as how my rental is back in town. At the park." Cadence took his hand and was practically bouncing up and down.
"Let's go! I want to hold the baby!" She finally looked excited, and happy.
Devil ruffled Grace's head. "Don't be in such a rush to have your own life!" He frowned at her.
"We love having you in our lives, and wish you felt the same way." He gave Grace a big bear hug. Squeezing her to him.
"If Jackson calls, or comes about....call me immediately. Just give me a reason to put him on his arrogant a*s!" Devil hopped on his bike, eyes a twinkle.Next he flashed her a brilliant smile, saluted her and was off.
Devil rode around the town. Shadow Creek was a beautiful town. He didn't come over to visit it often but when he did he always enjoyed the sights. It was a beautiful evening, and the air was cool. Perfect night to ride in his opinion.

Dereck let his eyes linger on Cadie's face, he could see the hurt in her eyes as she spoke about her being an afterthought to everyone. "If it makes you feel better, you are not an afterthought to me." He placed his hand on her shoulder, leading her outside as she continued to say he was kind of like Batman, and questioning why he felt like it was his job to protect the people of Greensville. "It's kind of hard to explain. I feel like if you want something done, then you need to do it yourself." He opened the passenger side door for her, allowing her to step in before he closed the door, and got into the driver's seat himself.
When they started towards the hospital in Shadow Creek, Dereck glanced over at the petite woman practically bouncing in the passenger seat. She looked a lot happier now about the news of the new baby then she was before, so that is nice.
He was not going to stay, though. He was not really welcome at something like this, plus he had no business there. Once he pulled up to the hospital, he looked over at Cadie, placing his hand on top of her own. "I wanna take you out for dinner sometime. Let me know when you are free." With a wink, his blue eyes followed her as she got out of the car, and ran into the hospital. Then, me made his way back to the clubhouse for the night.
Grace was finally home, like she wanted, but it was kind of lonely. Her house was quiet, empty. Her phone was going crazy with messages and calls from Jackson, so she turned it off and decided to go to bed. She had to return to work at the hospital the next day, so it would be the best thing to get some sleep before her 12 hour shift.
The next day she was awake bright and early, and made her way to the hospital. None of her coworkers knew why she had been out, or about the giant pink cross scar that covered her back. So, she was sure she was going to be welcomed with a slew of questions from everyone. As she walked inside, there were still a few motorcycles outside the hospital, which meant that some of the Angels were still here visiting the mother and new baby.

Cadie accepted his answer with no further questions. Of course that answer made perfect sense to her. She had always been the type to do it herself. She firmly believe it was best to do it yourself, rather then be disappointed with someone else's work.
She happily squealed once they arrived at the hospital. "I am going to hug that little munchkin, and showered her in kisses! Oh....my....god!!! I am going to go shopping for her tomorrow!!! She needs dresses, and headbands, and shoes! Tiny little shoes!" She was clearly embracing her new role as Aunt and apparently personal shopper for the new baby. She was able to get her motormouth to stop running for a whole few minutes.
It was then that Derek invited her to dinner sometime. She smiled and agreed. She would talk to Grace before actually making the plans. She wasn't sure if it was friendly or kind of like a date. Either way she wanted to make sure Grace was okay with this. She would not just assume, because that is how trouble always seemed to arise.
She pretty much took over Isabelle when she arrived. The Mother seemed to have little to no interest in the baby. Her attention was on Orion's every single move and word. It was annoying to Cadence but she was fine with it. It allowed her to have Isabelle to herself. She rocked and changed the baby. They tried to encourage Mom to nurse the baby but Mom had no interest in that.
Early the next morning Grace was coming in the hospital as Cadence was finally leaving. She waved to Grace and smiled as she walked by. She did not stop and speak to her since she was with several Angels. She did not want anyone at the hospital thinking anything about Grace in regards to her Angel association. Mainly, Cadie wanted to ensure that Grace would not lose her job over anything they did.
Cadie rode back to the Club House on the back of Jasper's bike. They were hanging out and talking. They went up to his room and put on a DVD.
'I love this movie!'
'Most people aren't familiar with it.'
"That is because most people suck!' Jasper could only laugh at Cadence. She was so bubbly and silly. He enjoyed her company, even when she was being a sassy little diva.
He was leaning back in his reclining seat on the couch. Cadence was laying across the couch. On her side, facing the tv. She playfully elbowed and chopped him during the fight scenes. He chuckled and fake punched her. Eventually Cadence fell asleep, and he carefully sat up. He grabbed a pillow and blanket for her.
He tried to wedge the pillow under her head but she kept pushing it off the couch. He gave up, and just put the blanket over her. Next her turned off the DVD and stripped down to his boxers. He climbed into his bed, which was in a tiny room attached to the bigger room that he used as his Man Cave.
Devil was sitting at the table with Derek. The pair were eating a late breakfast. Devil was happily eating a pile of bacon. He had a large glass of orange juice beside his huge plate of bacon.
'So....are we going to officially combine the Clubs? Patch over? Or are we going to exist as two separate Clubs? I feel like I have more questions then answers at this point." He eyeballed the sausage on Derek's plate and took one of them.
"We need Scrapple and Pork Roll...." She said through a mouth full. When the pancakes were ready he helped himself to some of those as well.

Dereck was drinking from his cup of coffee, and looking through his phone when Devil spoke to him. His blue eyes shot up from over the rim of the cup, and he smiled at his partner. "We are not necessarily joining forces, but we are going to work together, in peace, to make sure that these Outcasts leave our towns alone, for good." He grabbed his fork, nearly stabbing Devil in the hand as he went to grab a sausage. "We mainly are agreed to set aside our differences for the good of everyone." His eyes looked past Devil as Nate and Jackson joined them, Jackson glared towards Devil, before taking a seat next to Dereck.
"We got some intel on the Outcasts. They frequent this bar in downtown, though, it is not Law, nor Ace. It is only some lowly members." When he said the last two words, he looked at Devil, before looking back at Dereck.
Dereck nodded his head, clapping his hands together. "I will pass along this information to Orion, and we will discuss what the plan is before we act. Thanks, Nate. You never disappoint me." He stood up from the table, making sure to take his phone to send a message to Cadie.
Can't do dinner tonight, how about tmrw? I will pick you up at 8. He sent off the message and walked outside, taking a seat so he could smoke.
When Grace saw Cadie, she flashed her a smile, ignoring some of the looks she received from the other Angel members. She made it a point to stay away from the room where Orion's new baby and her mother resided. It was not that she did not like the mother, it was just kind of awkward considering she was not 100% sure what her feelings towards Orion were.
One her lunch break, she pulled out her phone, making sure to send a text to Orion.
Congrats on the baby.
Once it was sent she enjoyed her lunch in peace, though it was cut off early because there were a few trauma patients that came through the ER, they had been beaten pretty badly, one of them even died. It was only when Grace saw that the victims were branded in a similar way that she was, that she realized this was done by the Outcasts.
After a long day of work, Grace made it a point to rush home. She did not want to be out of her house for too long, but when she got home she was welcomed with the sight of Jackson sitting in her living room. He had never given her back the spare key he took.
