chapter 5

piper.

it's been two days so far and neal is still out of town. we've been texting and he has called me after my shifts to make sure I make it home with no problems. but I miss him and that scares me, I shouldn't be getting attached to him when I have no idea what were even doing or if he's seriously interested or if I'm just some game between him and the other guy.

I'm getting ready to leave for work, sadie refused her nap today so she's extremely cranky so I'm rocking her for a minute before I leave my mama is here to watch her.

" okay sweetie I got you some coffee in a go cup you don't want to be late" she says

I kiss sadie on the head " I know mama, call me if anything changes with her or if you just can't handle it. she will probably crash early"

she nods " don't forget to talk to addie about babysitting I'm leaving Tomorrow" I smile at her

" I already did mama you stop worrying and enjoy your vacation!"

she rolls her eyes " give me the abby and you stop worrying about her she's just growing"

we laugh and I love on sadie telling her to behave and she nods her little head.

as I'm leaving I can't help but feel tired, she has been moody all day and I haven't slept well and I honestly don't want to admit it to myself it's because I've been thinking about neal.

I walk into work drinking my coffee and Gabe laughs as he hugs me " rough day?" he asks

I sigh dramatically " life with a toddler can be exhausting" he laughs and says " I told you I'd come by and hang out any time" I nod

" I know but I also know you enjoy your sleep and sleep is what she hasn't been doing"

we laugh and get things ready for the night.

I'm making my rounds when in walk in the 3 regular bikers that have been missing lately. I have no idea how I'm supposed to act, he didn't tell me he was back. I grab their menus and decide to play it like any other customers so I don't make a fool of myself. before I can walk away Gabe hands me a fresh cup of coffee and I take a long drink before handing it back " thank you so much!" he smiles " I got your back of you need to head home" I shake my head" I'll be fine just another hour." he kisses my forehead and I turn to go deal with my tables.

" hey guys the usual beer?" I ask them as I pass out their menus I notice neal looking me up and down but I can't read his face

the bald guy speaks up " yes please" I nod and turn to go get them.

neal.

the last couple days have been hell, I just want to go see piper but I've gotta get this settled.

her voice late at night helps me sleep. I'm definitely falling for the girl and I never expected it.

today we finally figured out and fired the guy who was taking the money as well as scared the hell out of him. once we're done I turn to the guys and say " okay fellas I'm headed back you do whatever" and I take off to get my things blade catches up with me " you rushing off to see a certain waitress at work this evening?" he asks

and I sigh " yes. I am problem?" he laughs nope but I'm coming along my ole lady needs me home also." I nod

once we get back into the small town I feel like I'm home. I can't wait to surprise her at work. blade and snake are joining me, snake now realizing piper is officially off limits he will flirt but stop trying to f**k her.

as we walk into the bar the biggest smile finds my face when I see her. her hair is everywhere tonight and she's in her regular work shirt and some short shorts. we take our seat and impatiently wait for her. " think she will throw herself at you?" snake asks joking around and I shrug " didn't tell her I was back trying to surprise her" he laughs " damnit boy already whipped" I glare at him then turn to find piper I see her talking with the bartender who gives her a mug and a kiss on the forehead. what the f**k is that?! blade notices my body language " calm down I'm sure it's nothing. don't be a ass" I roll my eyes.

when she sets down our menus I can tell she's exhausted and she doesn't even say anything about me being back. she asked something but I'm so lost in my own thoughts. has she decided she wasn't into me? she nods her head and starts walking away. I quickly hop up and grab her hand taking her by surprise so she flinches. God I hate that " hey sorry didn't mean to startle you, can we step out for a minute?" she slowly nods her head and I follow her she hollers to the bartender " gabey I'm taking just a minute I'll be back" he eyes me up and down but nods his head out hands still joined we make it out the back door. " so two days and you don't want to try anymore?" I ask I know I sound like a d**k but I'm hurt

" what? I never said that" she says

" yeah but you didn't even say anything to me much less act like I spent the night at your house the other night"

she sighs " you didn't tell me you were back, and honestly I don't know what this is" she points between us and says " I didn't want to over step in front of your friends" I quickly pull her into my body and press my lips into hers

" damn I have missed that" she smiles

" and for the other stuff you act how ever you are comfortable. I don't give a f**k about what they think. hell they are here waiting to see if you really are giving me a chance because they don't believe me" we laugh and she says " I just didn't want to embarrass you" I softly rub her cheek with my thumb ' darling having you on my arm is far from embarrassing me. and as for us I thought we were talking hopefully going on a date soon" I wink at her making her blush.

" I've really gotta get back I've only got an hour left and really want to leave on time" I kiss her one more time before we make our way back in hand in hand I stop by the bar getting our beers so she doesn't have to the bartender says " babe table 5 already placed the order for 3 burgers" she nods her head " thanks gabey I'll handle it now" he rolls his eyes but continues to work. I kiss her cheek before making it back to the table. I'm gonna have to ask her about him.

" so everything okay?' blade says as soon as I sit and I nod " yeah she was just worried about how to act around you guys" he pats my shoulder and we make small talk as I watch her move her sexy little ass from table to table. I watch as some of the customers try to flirt or eye her ass as she leaves. I roll my eyes girl doesn't even see it. she brings our food " enjoy boys" she says sweetly smiling and I grab her hand " piper this is blade my right hand man and snake you already know" she smiles at them and nods " nice to officially meet you I guess"

and blade laughs " just so you know this man has looked like a lost puppy the last few days" he says causing her to make eye contact with me as she laughs and my heart skips a beat.

" I haven't been a lost puppy" I say and snake buts in " dude has been a royal d**k since we left town" she smiles at me before kissing my check and whispering " I've missed you too" before walking off. I know I look stupid smiling over something so simple and snake starts talking s**t " is this p***y really that good?"

I glare at him " watch it before I kick your ass"

" oh so you haven't actually f****d her yet?" he says

he's really pushing it

" if you must know, no I haven't but I do know that it is that good" his eyes go wide

" wait a minute! you really haven't?"

I shake my head " we're getting to know each other"

" hot damn!!"

we leave it at that and finish our food. they guys head out and I wait for piper to finish her shift

" hey I'm done for the night but if you are staying.." she says but I cut her off

" I was waiting for you darling wanted to walk you out" she smiles and takes my hand and we walk out towards her car and she yawns

" long Day" I ask

she shakes her head agreeing " sadie was extremely cranky and my parents are leaving for vacation tomorrow so I had to figure out my schedule around addies"

" well babygirl I won't keep you just needed to see you before you went to sleep" I pull her in for a heart stopping kiss and when we pull away she says " night neal be careful" I nod my head and open her car door to let her in I give her one last kiss then and send a wink " let me know when you make it home.

I watch as she drives away before going to my bike and heading to the clubhouse.

once there I start my laundry and shower before getting in bed. my phone finally chimes

piper- I'm home headed straight to bed. night

neal- night darling. I'll talk to you in the morning.

piper.

the next morning when I wake I'm feeling better. I'm not sure if it's from sleep or knowing that neal is home. before getting out of bed I check my phone, I have a message from mama letting me know they are on the road so I text her back telling her to be safe and one message from neal

neal- good morning gorgeous. I hope you and the small fry have a better day. I'll probably swing by the bar again tonight if that's okay with you.

piper- good morning handsome. definitely feeling better and gorod sadie is too. I'd love for you to come by work.

I get up and throw my hair up. I do my morning routine and put on a tank top and some shorts.

I go get sadie out of bed and changed and start my coffee and her breakfast, thankfully she seems to be in a better mood. she eats her breakfast and I drink my coffee before she runs off to get her toys as I go to wash the dishes my sink makes a sound and then a hush of water come out of my cabinet. oh no!!! what do I do. I quickly call addie and she tells me her dad is out of town and so is my dad. I call dad but he doesn't answer. I think for a moment and I'd decided to call neal surprisingly he answers on the second ring

"hey little mama how's your morning?"

"uh not good. my dad's out of town and I think my pipe in my sink is broken any chance you aren't busy or can just tell me where the cut off might be?"

"cut off should be by the side of your house. you do that and I'll be over in a few go check it out for you okay baby?"

"you really don't have to go.."

"hey hey don't say it. I'm not busy and I'm sure it's a simple fix"

I sigh.

" okay thank you. really."

" not s problem darling"

I find the cut off and throw some towels down.

I'm sitting in the floor playing with sadie with her blocks when the doorbell rings.

" auntie!" she says excited

" no sweetie mamas friend is coming to fix something" she nods her little head.

I make my way to the door and let out a breath. how will sadie react? how will he? maybe I shouldn't have called. ugh!

I open the door and he's standing there in a cut off shirt showing his large arms and a pair of jeans. damn he looks good. he holds up his hands " got some tools" he says and I try to stop drooling. " uh yeah it's in the kitchen" I say letting him in

he quickly gets to work as I'm standing there watching his head is under the sink when sadie runs in "mama!" she hollers then sees neal she smiles real big and makes her way to him he sits up from under the sink she playing with the bottom of her dress " I Sadie" she says sweetly he smiles and puts his hand out " that's a beautiful name for a beautiful girl. my name's neal" she puts her small hand in his, I can't help but smile at the two " okay sadie bug let's not bother mr neal, I'll take you to swing" I say and she gets excited " yay you come swing?" she asks neal and he smiles real big " as soon as I get done sweet pea then I'll come check it out"

she runs off to the back door and I just smile at him he winks at me and gets back to work.

I follow sadie out and swing her, soon she's running around playing with bubbles.

I feel neals arms wrap around my waist " all done babygirl just needed a new pipe" he says I turn to face him " thank you I can pay you for fixing it" he shakes his head " nope not happening easy fix" he kisses my nose making me smile sadie runs up " L come watch the bubbles!" she says happily she takes his big hand in her small one and leads him to the bubble machine I decide to sit on the swing and watch them. he sits on the ground while she's running around laughing and he's playfully trying to get the bubbles. I cant help but smile.

I watch them okay for a few until I look at my watch and realize it's already time for lunch and I'm sure he's got things to do. " come on sadie bug it's time to get cleaned up for lunch" and she does her cute pout face and looks at neal he laughs real loud and scoops her up " mama has spoken pea we gotta listen" he says tickling her making her laugh we make our way inside and he sets her on the bar and I start to clean up her hands and face " can L eat with me?" she asks and my eyes go wide and I avoid looking at him I don't want him to feel like he's stuck.

" I'm sure he's got things to do bug he's very busy" I say and her eyes look sad, I really don't need her getting attached to him.

neal.

when she opened her front door in that tank top and shorts I had to remind myself why I was here. I'm not here to f**k her plus her daughter is in the house I've got to behave.

once I get under the sink I see it'll be a easy fix then I hear a tiny sweet voice when I sit up I'm about eye leave with her. she looks so much like her mama her hair is just as wild. pretty sure this tiny human is gonna have me wrapped around her fingers just the way her mama does.

I get the sink fixed and the water back on when I walk into the back yard sadie is running through the bubbles and piper is watching her with a beautiful smile on her face I can't help but put my arms around her. her body fits perfect in mine. I cant believe she thought she'd need to pay me just for helping her, I've really gotta get this woman to understand just how interested I am in her.

sitting on the ground playing with sadie makes my heart feel crazy, her laugh is contagious and she's so care free. I'm definitely a goner! she had decided to call me L and I like it.

once piper tells us it's lunch time her little face turns into the cutest pout I've ever seen I can't help but scoop her up and bring back her laughter just like her mama tickling fixes that.

piper is cleaning her up when she asks me to have lunch I see pipers body go tense before answering. I don't want to over step but am not ready to leave the two of them

" I'd love to have some lunch I'm starving pea!" and she gets excited again. piper never looks at me she sets sadie down and tells her to play while she gets the food. " uh it's just leftover spaghetti today" she says pulling it out and getting started. " sounds good to me" I respond. I lean against her counter as she starts fixing bowls to warm up, she does sadies first and set the next one in to warm I take the moment and box her into the counter with my arms I feel her body tense then relax once I kiss her neck

" if you need me to leave I can babygirl"

she shakes her head before saying

" it's not that" I let her take the next bowl out and add the other before spinning her around facing me. I place my fingers under her chin the other still resting on the counter " what's wrong darling?" I question and she sighs closing her eyes " I don't want you to feel stuck" she says

and I kiss her lightly " I'm honored to be her darling don't you ever forget that" before she can say anything sadie runs in " you kissed my mama!" she says looking all sassy and I can't help but let out a loud laugh and piper blushes

I bend down to her " I sure did I hope that's okay, but she's so pretty I couldn't help myself" she smiles and nods her little head

piper gets the food to the table and we all dig in. the girl sure can cook!! sadie has spaghetti everywhere and I just enjoy their little half conversation piper has with her.

she gets her cleaned up and tells her it's about nap time " but I want to play with L" she says I bend down and kiss the top of her head smoothing her hair a little " I promise to come back and play very soon as long as mama says it's okay" piper just nods and sadie agrees to this. she picks her up " I may be a minute uh if you need to leave I understand" piper says looking everywhere but me I just nod my head as she walks away.

while she's putting her down for her nap I quietly loud her dish washer with the few dishes and pick up the toys off the living room floor. I then kick my boots off and sit on the couch and wait for her, I pull out my phone looking through social media I decided to try to see if she has one. I find her and send her request then look over her pictures there's loads of sadie and a couple of the both of them. and I'm assuming her parents. the most recent is one of her and sadie playing in the water at the beach and I find myself smiling.

when she walks back into the living room her eyes land on me and they go wide " I um didn't expect you to be here" she says

" where else would I be?"

she shrugs and sits on the couch throwing her small feet in my lap, I run my hand up her smooth tan legs and go back to her feet her toes are painted a bright pink I start to rub them

" you didn't have to clean up" she finally says ." babygirl it was nothing stop stressing so much"

she nods her head " sorry about sadie, she loves people and attention" she says and I smile and pull her into my lap making her straddle my waist I rest my hands on her hips as she's looking down at me " pretty sure she's got me wrapped around her fingers just like her mama, now stop apologizing for having and amazing daughter" this brings a smile to her face and I lean in and kiss her collar bone " but there is something you really need to explain to me" I say in a whisper and I feel her body shiver lightly I like the effects my voice has on her body " what do I need to explain?" her voice also comes out in a whisper so I bring my mouth to her ear and slowly let my hands roam to her breast her body freezes and I run my thumbs over her hardened n*****s " explain to me why you never seen to have a bra on" I say and her head falls back since she doesn't answer i pull her n*****s between my fingers and slightly roll them causing her body to squirm and her eyes to go wide " explain" is all I say

" I don't like to wear one around the house" it comes out as a pant and I smirk at her " that's very good to know" I say before capturing her lips her hands find the back of my neck and mine never leave her breast. I slip my tongue into her mouth she lets out a little moan, I soon make my way down her neck kissing and biting and her hips start grinding into me I can't help but groan were so lost in our own little world we both jump when we hear a voice say " well well well" my hands still on her breast piper blushes bright red " addie! he came to fix the sink" her response makes me and the girl that ruined our moment laugh and piper quickly moved off of me

" oh yeah the sink huh? cause seems like he's got his hands busy with something else" addie says and piper throws a pillow at her saying " shut up!" making the girl laugh more she then sticks her hand out to me and I take an extra pillow and place it over my lap because my d**k is rock hard " hi I'm addie, you just be neal the sexy biker that's supposed to be taking my friend her for a ride" I shake her hand and laugh because I'm not sure which way she means at the moment. on my d**k or bike

" oh God I'm going to get ready for work!" piper exclaims before jumping up " neal if you need to run away I understand" and I just shake my head " I'll wait for you babygirl" this makes her blush even more she turns to leave.

as soon as we hear her bedroom door shut addie sits down on the couch

" so mister biker boy what is your end game here?" she ask looking me straight in the eyes

" right to it then. I'm interested in your friend. not just in that way" she seems to like that answer because she nods before leaning in closer and whispering " I'm not sure what she's told you but the girl needs to be f****d and good" my eyes go wide I wasn't expecting that

but she isn't done " last boy really f****d up her head and from what I've gotten out of her about the situation she didn't actually get much pleasure. just from what I walked in on I'm counting on you to change that. she need to be loved and f****d and treated right!"

I nod my head understanding " I completely agree with all of those things"

" good because I don't want to be picking up the broken pieces of her again. her walls are up extremely high so be prepared" she says

" I know. we're still getting to know each other hoping she will let me take her out soon and shoe her a good time"

" well I might can help with that let me see what I can do"

I nod my head and piper walks back in looking f*****g sexy. she's got her hair down and her work shirt on with her booty shorts and a pair of boots. my d**k had gone down but looking her over he's back alive

piper.

oh my God I can't believe addie walked in on me basically humping him!!! she's definitely not gonna let this go. I quickly get ready for work and apply a little make up but pull hair done because notice I have a couple red marks on my neck. I blush and shake my head. as I walk into the living room addie winks at me and I feel neals eyes roaming over my body. I'd he gonna tell me to change? I look down at myself I don't think I look bad but it's definitely something ryan wouldn't have let me out of the house in I'm slowly trying to wear things I'm comfortable in again.

neal doesn't say anything so I look over at addie

" sadie should be up soon. you know where the snacks are and if you need anything just call."

she replies" yes I know. we will be fine" I lean down and kiss her cheek " thank you" I say and she smiles and whispers in my ear " I need the story later" I blush and nod I turn to neal

" I've gotta head to work" I say and he stands up taking my hand

" ill walk you out. I've got a few things to take care of also" he says and looks at addie " it was nice meeting you"

we start to walk toward the door but once we're right in front of it out of eye sight of addie he roughly pushes me up against the wall I tense up but he just places his hands roughly on my ass and pulls me in for an amazing kiss my hands find his chest holding on to his shirt for dear life. when he finally pulls away he places his forehead on mine and I'm trying to calm my heart " sorry you just look f*****g sexy I could take you right now" he says making a moan slips from my lips her runs his fingers through my hair and lays his hand lightly on my neck " I really like when your hair is down and wild" he says

" well my neck is a little red so I don't have a choice" i giggle causing him to smirk at me

" mm I like that. come on I don't want to make you late" he says grabbing my hand and my body feels cold without him close.

he walks me to my car and opens my door kisses me one more time and tell me to have a great night. I tell him to be safe and we part ways.

driving to work my head is swimming. he does things to my body I can't explain and instead of getting pissed about my clothes he basically kissed the life out of me. what is the catch I'm left wondering.
