Getting her home takes minutes.  I park and walk her up.  I'm surprised by her apartment.  She took over the whole floor of her building, it's two shops downstairs and one apartment up.  It's open except the rooms on the sides; a bathroom and bedroom on each side.  Another cool as fuck thing about her.  "I love your space.  I like how open it is."

She looks over her shoulder drawing my eyes to her hair and bare back.  Fuck.  "Me too.  It took me three years to finish it but it was worth every minute and drop of sweat.  Once the building was mine, I decided to make it mine in every way.  I love it here, it's comfortable, no one judges me because I tattoo roughnecks, sailors and bikers.  The women are all my friends, I couldn't ever say that before, most women ignored me or talked shit about me.  Here I'm accepted for just me.  I love it."  I watch red spread up her face and smile.  No one judged her but me.  "I didn't mean it bad, just an explanation of why it's important for me to be here."

I nod.  "If I feel bad about it that's on me, not you, Amanda.  I'll deal and show you I've changed that way of thinking.  I'm glad you found your peace, don't be embarrassed because of my fuck up.  You space is cool as shit, you should be proud of it."  She smiles and grabs cereal from above the fridge.  I sit at the island and watch her.  She's comfortable and confident here.  We eat and talk some more.  She's fuckin funny as shit and has me laughing and talking more than I have in a fuckin month.  I stand, watching her face turn to confusion.  "I've had a good time, Amanda."  I walk to the sink putting our bowls in it and turn back.  "I need to check the schedule for today and crash for a while.  Do you want to go to dinner with me later?  It's just a pot luck of sorts, Tiny always mans the grill but we all bring something to add to it."

She looks surprised.  "Yes, I'd like that.  I'll put something together, what time is it?"

Fuckin cute.  "You don't have to, I have us covered.  Five or so, they don't give a fuck really.  The kids do a last swim about eight."

She giggles and my dick swells.  Fuckin sexy sound.  "Tess invited me, I didn't get the time though."

I stand in front of her, putting my hands on her waist.  "I'll pick you up at quarter of."  I bend and kiss her, fuckin mistake.  I'm hard as fuck when I pull away.  I kiss her head and get the fuck out while I can.  "Sleep well, Amanda."  I throw over my shoulder as I walk out.  I wait until I hear the lock engage then walk down the stairs to my truck.  My dick isn't happy but I have a fuckin smile on my face.  Fuckin Rich is right, she's a fuckin good girl and talking clued me the fuck in.

I grab my bag and drag my ass through the Club.  In my room, I recheck the family cover then hit the shower.  I could find a whore but being with the Club my whole adult life taught me the value of respect and honor.  I've never done the dating thing, women just appear and want to fuck so I do.  This feels good, like I'm working for it like Rich said.  I find my relief and fall into bed.  I need to ask Rich what the fuck I'm supposed to be doing with her.

Amanda

The family dinner is a blast.  I always have fun; I don't come to many but Tess always invites me.  Cloud and CJ's kids are all active and funny.  They swim like fish, play volleyball like a professional team and are always smiling.  Everyone is always building the others up, kids and parents.  I love it.

Bob plays with the kids and sits with the men.  His eyes follow me everywhere but he's not stuck to my side.  He makes me laugh, throwing Jessie and Brantley two bucks when I swear.  Jessie has tears running down my face when he tells me since I'll be around I should take the flat monthly rate.

"You shake down your parents with that flat rate?"  I'm still fuckin laughing.

He smiles, "Been doing it for years.  We collect over a fifteen hundred a month just in flat rates.  The best part is, since they pay the flat rate, they keep swearing.  It's a viscous cycle but profitable for the Little Brothers."  When I can breathe and talk again I ask what they do with the money.  "Last month we paid a landscaper to do old man Cromwell's yard.  His wife used to do it but she died and it got overgrown bad.  The landscaper switched plants and put irrigation so it runs on a timer.  He's helping Cromwell learn how to take care of it.  Now he sits on the bench again and watches the beach like before his wife died."

I think my mouth fell open.  Fuckin kids.  "What's the fuckin flat rate?"  He laughs.

"Hundred a month for you.  Make the check out to Little Brothers and Sisters.  I'll have Joey send you a reminder so you get the information.  It's due on the first."  I'm laughing again.  Fuckin kids are better than the mafia.  Who can resist them?

Bob saves me.  "I just give them cash every month, they pretty much leave me alone."

I'm laughing hysterically.  "I just agreed to a hundred a month.  He told me they'll send a reminder and it's due on the first.  Angel faces fuckin shaking everyone down.  I love it."  He laughs, walking me back up to the tent.  The adults are sitting around chatting.

Bob gets me a beer and sits beside me.  "Jessie caught her for a hundred a month."  They all laugh, I laugh with them and ask how long they've been at it.

"Since Jessie and Little Ben were seven or eight.  Fuckin kids."  Steve says.  I have tears in my eyes again, at least I'm laughing.

The guys get the kids out of the water and start a barn fire.  We move closer and sit together talking and laughing.  CJ is wicked funny; she fits right in with the women.  With so much that happens in their lives it always surprises me that they laugh so much.

The visions that Tess and Christian have must make life hell at times.  I've seen a few but they are always smiling.  They don't let it affect the happiness they find.  It dawns on me that they've found a way to be happy in spite of the horrors they live through in the visions.  Looking around I realize they all do, Kate was kidnapped and drugged, CJ was shot twice, Tess was beat and raped by Outlaws and Jess was beat by a gang.  I don't have the story on Nancy but they all share horrific things in their past.  They've laughed all day, I can do it too.  I should stop declining invitations and keep these people close.

Tess slaps my arm.  "Took you long enough.  I keep telling you it will be good for you but you never listen."  She's got a big fuckin smile on.

"When the hell did you start reading people's minds and tell me how to stop that." I tell her.

She looks surprised, she's so damn cute.  "Sorry."  She smiles.

Sally laughs, "She's not sorry.  She started this shit about two years ago.  She can't read everyone, Thank God."  Tess shrugs making me laugh.

"I can teach you how to block our little busy body fairy over there.  I want a tattoo, so we can set a time for you to learn then.  Christian and Jeremy need to be blocked too."  CJ says with a smile.

"Shit, there's more."  I watch them all laugh, then I join them.  I'm told to watch some of the men too, they don't give names though.  I just nod.

I get CJ set with a time during the day, we join the guys and kids at the fire.  Bob has his arm around me and feels my shiver.  "You ready to go?  It's getting chilly."

"I am."  I tell him even though the shiver was because of his arm around me.

We say goodbye to everyone and take our leave.  "I had a good time tonight, thanks."

"I like to see you smile.  You did a lot of that today."  I'm surprised he said that.  He doesn't talk much but it's always nice when he does.

Smiling, I tell him they're easy people, they're happy with what they have and I love being part of that.  He nods.  Maybe he does too.

Bob

Driving back to the Club, I'm smiling like a pussy.  I don't give a fuck though, Amanda is perfect.  She wasn't clinging to me like a fuckin octopus.  She let me have time with the Brothers, I never even seen her frown.  She kept busy with the kids and old ladies and had fun doing it.  She didn't have problem with my hand at her waist or holding my hand.  Rich said she fits in well with the old ladies and kids.  When I asked about what the fuck I should do with her, Patches wrote me a list.  They used it with Tess; they had no fuckin clue either, Danny helped with theirs.  I can cross off kissing tonight.  I'm taking her for breakfast tomorrow and meeting her after work tomorrow night.

Rich said we have to do normal couple shit so she sees who I am under the cut.  I don't think she gives a fuck about me being an Officer though.  She doesn't see people as a job, she sees the people.  According to Patches, she's not hurting financially.  I'm not sure if he knows that threw relief on me, he probably does.  It's one area that has always put concern in my head.  Women can be devious; a Club chick latched on a few years ago, she was always trying to get me to take her places.  I didn't get it at first but when she expected presents regularly I clued in quick.  Someone told her about the Officers all having money.  Fuckin douchebag caused women to come out of the fuckin woodwork, trying to bag an Officer.

Pulling in, I put everything that was a concern behind me and think about tomorrow.  My shower will be interesting with the thought of touching her running through my fuckin head.  I'm hard now and I haven't let those thoughts out. I climb the side stairs avoiding the common room and get stopped by Candy.  She grabs my dick right off.  Fuck.  "Sorry doll, I'm off the lineup."

She laughs.  I give her a look and she stops.  "Got it big guy, I'll let the girls know."  I nod and turn to the Officers rooms.  Me and Chet are the only Officers that live here full time.  Alan shacks with his old lady most nights so it's always quiet on our side.  Tonight, Chet is entertaining and it sounds like quite a few.  I go past his to my room at the end of the hall.  It would have been easier to come in the back but I didn't want to run into the whores; they don't usually use the side case.

I put the list up on my board and cross off making out.  I think we did that to perfection tonight.  Checking the schedules for tomorrow, I get Tess covered for her appointment in the yard.  I didn't ask what is wrong, Rich just told me about it today.  If he wanted me to know he would have told me.  Driscoll texts me right back; he'll take it, he's scheduled in at twelve with her anyway.  I send Geek the changes for payroll and hit the shower.

One and a half weeks

Bob

Walking into the tattoo parlor I smile; Amanda is talking to a hairy muscle toned dude like he’s five.  I walk right over to her and kiss her head then move toward the back.

“Babe.”  Is all she says then gets back to the pussy on her table.  I nod at Kellan, he rolls his eyes at the big pussy, making me laugh.

I sit at Amanda’s desk and pull my laptop out of my bag.  I’ve done this a couple of days this week.  She doesn’t mind and I get my checks and any unfinished work done.  The yard is on high alert so keeping watch is important.  Luckily, all the Brothers are in so I don’t really have too much to worry about.  Quinn stands at the door.  She’s a decent artist but there’s something about her that I don’t like.  I make her wait while I plug into the surveillance feed.  When I look up she’s smiling.

“Working all the time.  I like a man that isn’t afraid of work.”  Her tits go out as she talks.

I roll my eyes.  She knows I’m in with Amanda but has no fuckin problem throwing herself out there.  I hate conniving bitches.  “Taken, Quinn, set your sights somewhere else.”  I go back to my feed.

“Think Chet would give me a shot?”  She’s looking for an Officer?

I send him a text letting him know she’s Officer prowling as she’s standing there.  “Ain’t his fuckin keeper; run along, Quinn, nothing here for you.”

She spins leaving in a huff.  I’m the one wrong here?  Fuckin women.

I answer my phone, “Yeah, Brother.”

“Need you at Security at eight tomorrow.”  VP says.

What the fuck is going on?  “I’ll be there.  Anything I need to know tonight?”

He laughs, “Your girl’s ready.”  I get dead air.  Fuckin Brothers in my fuckin head.  I put my phone down and smile.  She’s ready.  Fuck if I’m not hard.  I think about the past week and getting to know her outside of the tattoo parlor.  She’s so fuckin sweet and sassy all at the same time.  I like that she’s not showing me only her best.  I got to see her pissed at Kellan and she got to see me go off on a Prospect that was drinking at the kids’ soccer game.  It didn’t change anything for either one of us.  I spent only a couple of days away from her and it was killing me not to pick up the phone and call her just to hear her voice.  The rest of the week we did errands, shopped and just hung out.  It’s certainly different than what I’m used to but I like it.  I think working for it is making it better for both of us.

I watch the feed trying to calm my dick down.  There’s a lot of activity for a week night.  Amanda has me looking away from the feeds when she walks in the door.  “Hey, beautiful.”  I love seeing that smile as she walks to me.

She sits on my lap and kisses me.  My dick stirs when she pulls a ring in her mouth and licks across it.  “Quinn says you’re an asshole.  I’m glad she thinks so.”

“Fuck, woman.  I’m an asshole because I shut her down?  She works for you; she should have your back.  Bitch just wants an Officer, she doesn’t care which one.”  I’m shaking my head and she laughs.  “How the fuck is this funny?”

“Since she didn’t get what she wants I’m happy.  She’s beautiful and available.  Not many men turn her down.  Thank you.”

Fuck.  “You're beautiful and I wouldn’t be with you if I wanted someone else.  I’m trying to do it right from a fuckin list Patches and Rich helped me with.  I don’t need distractions or her fuckin attitude.”  I smile.

She laughs.  “A fuckin list?”

Fuck, maybe I shouldn’t have told her that.  “My whole life women threw themselves at me.  I didn’t know any other way.  You’re worth the effort so I got help to make sure I do right by you.  I’ve been liking the way things work from the list.  I know more about you than anyone besides the Brothers and you know more about me.  I like the fuckin list.”

She’s not saying anything.  I wait her out because what the fuck can I say to get her to understand that I didn’t already say.  She kisses me slow and fuckin hot.  When she pulls away I’m fuckin hard and ready.  “Thank you for the list.  Tell me the list has making love to me tonight on it.”

“Fuck.”  I blow out a breath.  “Yeah, it does but it’s when you say not me.  I’m fuckin glad you said tonight.  A long walk on the beach isn’t going to help after that fuckin kiss.”

She looks at me again.  “I say let’s go.”  She stands, pulling my hand.

“Babe, don’t you need to lock up and do the cleaning thing?  I don’t mind helping you take care of it.”  My dick is trying to squash that thought.

“Done.”  She pulls on my hand.

“Fuck, I didn’t realize what time it was.  Next time let me know.”

She turns around looking at me.  I close the laptop and put it in the bag.  “I liked it better when you didn’t fuckin talk.”

I laugh, put my bag on my shoulder and lift her up.  Kissing her lips, I turn and get us upstairs.  She doesn’t say a fuckin word the whole time.  “Are we going right to the bedroom or do you want a shower and drink?”

She gives me a look making me smile.  “I’m not waiting another fuckin minute, Bob.  The bedroom.”  I smile because that was my choice.  A week of fuckin holding hands, she doesn’t have to tell me twice.

I’ve never seen her bedroom so she points it out; I step in and think she’s fuckin perfect.  Heavy dark wood furniture, blue and gray blanket.  Nothing princess about it, I fuckin love it.  Standing her up, I let her slide down me.  Fuck, it feels good so I put my hands on her face and kiss her, letting her know I like it.  Her arms go around my neck while mine travel down.  I step back and lift her shirt off her.  Fuckin no bra again.  I’d ask but I like it too much to ask questions now.

I put her on the bed and follow her down.  I want to taste every fuckin spot on her body so I start doing that.  Her hands are all over me and I fuckin love it.  Playing with her nipple jewel has her bucking into me.  I move over and give her something to rub against because I’m not stopping the taste test I’ve got going on.  When I get to her pants I lift up getting a moan of frustration out of her.  I kiss her lips, “I need to do it right baby.  I’ll give you what you want but let me have this.”  She gives me a sexy smile and nods her head.  Perfect. 

With her naked, I continue where I left off; I dip my tongue in her belly button and bite the edge of it.  Her fuck me sounds are getting louder, driving me up the fuckin wall.  I can smell her pussy, which ain’t helping me keep it together here.  I can’t resist so my tongue meets her and fuck if I don’t make friends.  She bucks up so I spread her legs wide and hold her down while my mouth learns what she likes without being rushed.  Fuck, I love her taste and the noises she’s making for me.  My fingers slide in her and give her something else to concentrate on while my tongue stays busy with her clit.  I get better noises then she yells out my name.  Fuck!  That’s what I want to hear from her for fuckin ever.  Just like that.  I almost lose it and moan with her.  I don’t stop until her pussy stops grabbing my fingers.  Moving up her body, I stop at her beautiful tits and play until she’s moaning again.  “Fuckin beautiful Mandy.”  Her hands are in my hair holding my mouth on her but I need to be in her.  I lift my head and move up to her neck then mouth.  She makes the sexiest fuckin sounds.

I have to get up to get my pants off and she groans.  My fuckin girl is impatient; I smile as I undress.  Putting a condom on the bed, I watch as she grabs it and opens it with her teeth.  Fuck, I’m so ready.  She watches me undress; I can see the want in her eyes so I move faster.  She moans when I drop my pants, making my dick bob.  Climbing on the bed, I position in between her legs.  She hands me the condom and I roll it on.  I bend and kiss her, reminding her of where we left off.  My dick is sliding at her entrance, the bar catching her and driving me fuckin crazy.  I hear she’s ready again so I slide in nice and slow.  Fuck, I need to see her; I grab the spare pillow and kneel up.  Putting the pillow under her ass I slide back in.  Fuckin nice.  “I like this view better.”  She nods.  I start moving faster, she moans out a 'fuck' making me hit her harder.

My bar is scraping against her perfect.  “Fuck, harder Bob.”  She says almost on a whisper.  I pull her up on me and give her harder, slamming her down on my dick.

Her mouth is on my nipple ring causing my dick to jump making me growl.  “Fuck, Mandy.”  She yells my name again then pulls the ring on a moan.  Fuck, I’m gone.  I breathe out her name.  Fuck, I’ve never come so hard.  I’m pulling air right along with her.  “Fuckin beautiful.”

“Yeah.”  She says laying her head on my chest.

I hold on like I’m going to drop her if I let go.  It’s never felt this good and I don’t want it to end.  I shake my head wondering what the fuck is happening with me.  I’ll be writing fuckin love letters next.  I still don’t let her go though.

Amanda

I finally catch my breath.  He’s not moving so I look up at him.  He looks down with that sexy fuckin smile.  Of course my pussy clenches at the sight of it.  “That was crazy.”

“Yeah.”  He says; I smile because we already did this in reverse.  “I need a shower and a fuckin cigarette.”

He laughs.  “Would you settle for a bath and a drink?”

I love when he’s playful.  “Yeah.”  He lifts me off him and drops a kiss above my heart but doesn’t put me down until he gets in the bathroom.  He stands me up and starts the tub filling.  Looking around, he finds bath salts.  He smells them and drops in some melon.  I watch him smiling.  He takes care of the condom and turns toward me.  “This is new for me but I have instructions on how to do it.”  He’s so fuckin cute. 

I nod and give him a smile, he’s doing just fine.  He checks the water and puts me in the tub.  “I’ll be right back.”  I lounge back feeling relaxed and watch him walk his perfect ass out.  I close my eyes and smile, he
is
a fuckin God in bed and I got to see and feel it.  He comes back in and hands me a drink.  I take a sip of Jack and hand him the glass back.  He puts it on the counter and climbs in with me.  This is not something I expected.  My tub is an old claw foot, it’s not huge though.  He pulls me back against him.  “I like this.”  I can hear the smile in his voice.  He's never done this.

“Me too.  Thank you.”  He kisses my head then washes me.  I can get use to this.  I wonder who gave him instructions.

Once I’m clean, he washes himself and dries us.  I can’t get over how attentive he is.  He hasn’t said anything so I don’t either.  I’m comfortable with the silence.  He carries me to the bed and lies down with me.  I wrap myself to his side with my head on his chest and fall asleep within minutes.

His dick wakes me up, making me moan.  He flips me onto my stomach, pulling me up to my hands and knees and fucks me from behind until I yell his name.  I fall flat when he finally comes growling my name.  It's a good thing he cleans me up because I'm not fuckin moving.  I fall asleep with his head on my back.
