Goof As soon as I sat down I knew I had fucked up. Silvy hasn’t said it yet but I can tell she didn’t like me shouting that I was the baby’s father like that. But what was I supposed to do. The stupid skank called my baby a bastard. I wasn’t going to let that shit slide. Could I have announced it better? Yes. I shouldn’t have yelled it across the kitchen. To a skank that didn’t matter? I shouldn’t have done that. And the way Ace is looking at me, I know I’m not going to get out of talking to the club. Silvy hasn’t said a word since I sat back down. She just focused on eating. I was glad she was eating at least. Ailee just gave the skank a death glare and sent her on her way. I would have laughed if it was still several degree’s cooler in here. Ailee sat across from us but was looking at Silvy’s food. “ Lass, what in the world are you eating?” Ailee asks. “ Ailee?” Ace groans like he is worried she will upset Ailee. “ It is fine, Ace.” Silvy said. Silvy points to her food with her
Silvy After I left Goof I did exactly as he said. Not because he told me to but because a bubble bath sounded like an incredible idea. And it was. I must have soaked for thirty minutes before I was ready for a nap. I sleep for about three hours before I got up and tidied up the house a little bit. After that I sat down on the couch with my laptop looking over nursery ideas. I want it done by the time I’m in my eighth month. So the clock is ticking. I had it narrowed it down to two gender neutral designs. An underwater marine theme and a zoo animals theme. That Goof found me when he came by for dinner. He came in and found me going back and forth between computer windows trying to figure out which one I liked the best. How did Goof get in without me letting him in you ask. Easy, he has a key. I had copies made and gave it to him about a month ago when I figured out he was going to be sticking around. At least for the time being so I figured he should have a key. And Goof doesn’t
Goof So you know I spent the night at Silvy’s after I sent her home. Let me tell you what happened before I went over to her house. I had church. We went over the usual things. Checking on all the business the club owns. Merigold's expansion is almost done. The dispensary is getting a new shipment of edibles from a new supplier. Tank is taking on an apprentice from the high school. It is something Merigold started two years ago at her detail shop. She went to the high school for career day and talked to any kid that was interested. From that she offered on kid a chance to come work with her to see if that was a road they really wanted to take in their life. Before long Lilly, Speed, Pixie, Thor, and Tank followed in Merigold’s footsteps. They walk the kids through every part of the business and offer some hand on experience. And the kids seem to love it. There is always a long list of people who have signed up. When we finished with all of that Prez asked “ Any new business?” I ne
Silvy I can’t believe I asked Goof to be my date for my dad’s wedding. Scratch that, yes I can. I seem to be doing many things out of character for me when it comes to Goof. Let’s go over the list, shall we. The first thing is I am now calling him just to see how his day was going. If he doesn’t come over that is. Which is damn near every night. And when he does come over I always want to cuddle up with him. I’m laying on him. I have my head on his shoulder, my head on his chest, holding his hand, or just leaning against him. And not just at home either. At work, the club, out to dinner even going for walks. Yes, we go for walks now because it is good for the baby and prepares me for giving birth. I have been hanging around the club more which no one bats an eye at. Like it is normal for me to stop by after work or my day off. We have been getting the nursery ready. Once Merigold took a look the other day she took over the painting part of it even thought I told she didn’t have to.
Goof Two months to go before Silvy brings our baby into the world and I can’t wait. I feel our baby moving everyday. I have watch Silvy’s belly grow as our baby gets bigger. Soon I will have our baby in my arms watching them grow from the outside of Silvy. There is still so much to do before that happens. I have been moving my stuff into Silvy’s house little by little. I know Silvy has noticed but she hasn’t said anything about it yet. I’m living in her house and have been for a month. I have been waiting for Silvy to say something ever time I come home. Home. That is exactly what I feel when I walk through the front door. Silvy is my home and where I belong. Me staying in the house with her. Cooking and having meals together. Showering together. Sleeping with her in my arms every night. It all feels right. She hasn’t said a word. Silvy hasn’t told me to pack up and leave like I thought she would when she caught on to what I was doing. But she hasn’t. There is a big part of me that
Silvy I have been thinking hard since I talked with my dad just like he suggested I do. Hell, mine and Goof’s, whatever you want to call it, is all I have been thinking about. Every waking second I think about it. About us. When I wake up in Goof’s arms I think about us. When our baby moves I think about us. When he picks me up from work I think about us. When I saw Meathead lurking in the corners of the ER I thought about Goof. Why? Because he was the one who put Meathead on me for extra protection. While we are curled up on the couch, my head on his shoulder, his arm around me I am thinking about us. I think about how good it feels to wake up in Goof’s arms every morning and I would hate to lose that feeling. I think about us laughing over dinner while Goof tells me another story from the clubhouse. I don’t want the laughter to stop. I think about the way we seem to have to touch each other while we are cooking together. A hand brush here, a quick kiss there. I think about how m
Goof As soon as I stepped into the house I knew was different. It wasn’t the smell of food cooking. That was a norm if Silvy didn’t work a late shift. She liked to cook for us she told me when I told her it wasn’t necessary for her to cook that I would do it or we could order out. No, it was the energy in the house that changed. Not that it is ever been bad but there is a definite change. It feels a little lighter. Less stressed even. And it was coming from Silvy. I wondered what caused the change when I called out. I followed the sound of her voice to the kitchen to find her laying out all of my favorites on the table. There was only one other person who knew what I liked and that was Merigold because she made it every year on my birthday. Merigold does it for all the entire club. I know most of the prospects and single guys look forward to it. I know I did. It used to be my favorite day of the year. Until Silvy came along. Everyday with her is my favorite day. After I hugged and k
Silvy Today was special day. But not for me. For my dad. For Gena and Xavier too. They are becoming a family today. My dad is getting married. I still can’t believe it even though I’m standing in their bedroom at my dad’s house helping get Gena ready. I never thought this day would come. Not that there is anything wrong with my dad. There isn’t. He is wonderful. But dating and marriage were never a big deal for him. I learned as I got older it was because of me. He was focused on raising me. Then as I got older and moved on with my life he thought he was too old. I called bullshit on that several times. But there was nothing I could do about it, it was his life. Then Gena came along and all of that changed and I could be happier for them. I have gotten to know Gena since my dad introduced us. She is actually pretty cool. I will never see her a step mother. Our ages are too close. And I am beyond the age of needing a mother figure. Gena knows this and respects it. She has said she
GoofThis is my first time coming to the cabin. Viper told us about it when he heard Silvy and I discussing our honeymoon. I have heard about it in passing but that is it. Apparently Raider bought the cabin shortly after he and Ave started the club as a getaway for the brothers. I have never been here until now but I have seen pictures over the years. What had started as a one room log cabin with just a wood stove and basic bare minimum bathroom and kitchen over the years has turned into a three bedroom two bathroom cabin. A full back porch with grill and fire pit has been added. The master bedroom has it own bathroom complete with a claw foot tub big enough for two, a shower with three shower heads and porcelain sink. The other two bedrooms share a connecting full bathroom. The kitchen had been redone in a way that would be any chef’s fantasy. Sub zero fridge and freezer combo, gas range with air fryer and griddle, and a stainless steel sink. Even though the cabin is on a beautiful
Silvy I’m looking around the back yard of the clubhouse. After Viper announced Goof and I a family everyone moved the chairs around, brought out some additional tables to transform the yard into a reception area. It was fascinating to watch. I was sitting in a chair next to Goof nursing Ant watching my new family have fun. They were talking, eating, laughing, chasing kids, and drinking. And yes, I’m still nursing Ant. Not as often and only for a few more months. Especially now that he is getting teeth. He has one that has just broken through his gums but I can still feel it on my nipple. Luckily he hasn’t bitten me yet. But you don’t want to hear about that. You want to hear about the reception and any juicy bits that happened after. After Ant is fed and burped he is happy sitting on my lap while Goof plays peek-a-boo with him. I get a tap on my shoulder. I look up and see Gena with her hands out for Ant. “ You two are needed on the dance floor.” she said. Before I can ask why I
Goof I just got to my place on the platform when Anna came out the back door. She is holding a babbling clapping Ant on her hip. When he saw me he started babbling louder, giggling and reached for me. “ You will go to your daddy soon. We have to get him married to your mommy first.” Anna said. I don’t know how much of what Anna said Ant understood but he got excited and giggled louder and waving his hands. I didn’t bother to stop the smile on my face watching my boy. Anna took her seat in the front row so Ant could see me and Silvy. Ant looked over Anna’s shoulder and began to babble to Pocket’ twins who thought Ant was the funniest thing they have ever seen. Ant always has those two laughing. I was paying attention to the kids when the door opened again and the music started to play. I knew I need to focus when Gena walks out first. We didn’t do flower girls or ring bearers because Silvy and I couldn’t settle on who to pick out of the club kids and we didn’t want it to look
Silvy I can’t believe this day is here. I never thought it was possible. Today I am marrying my best friend and father of my child. Yes, I am marrying Goof. I never let myself believe this could happen because I wanted to guard my heart. Boy was I ever wrong. The man of my dreams broke down my walls made me fall in love with him and claimed me as his. I’m at the clubhouse in Goof’s old room getting dressed. It is still his room technically. We can use it if we are late and don’t want to drive home. Or in the case of the other day a quickie while Ant was sleeping. Ant is six months old now. But I will tell you more about him in a few. I need to finish getting dressed. I had just got on the lingerie I bought special for tonight and needed to get my dress on. I have Gena, Anna and Lilly helping me get ready. Lilly is here more for support and to make sure no one bothers us. And she is helping with Ant. Lilly’s vision may be impaired but it doesn’t slow her down. So she can’t help wit
GoofSilvy said yes. I was getting my girl. Finally. I wrap my arms around my family careful not to squish Ant and hold them. Just for a minute. You are probably wondering why my brothers and sister are coming over to congratulate us. It is because asking her to marry me wasn’t the only surprise I have for Silvy. I let go of my family and stand up since I am still on my knees. I sat beside them on the bench and place my arm around Silvy’s shoulder. I see the ol’e ladies coming from behind Silvy with smiles on there faces. “ Babe, could you wrap Ant up and give him to someone.” I said. I told her someone because there is always a pair of arms waiting to hold any of the Reckless kids and Ant is no exception. Silvy looks confused but fixes Ant’s blanket. As soon as it is done Gretchen comes forward. “ It is my turn to hold the sweet boy.” she said taking Ant from Silvy. Merigold steps forward with a white tee-shirt box. I know my brother, prospects, Tony, Gena and Xavier are watching. J
GoofWhen Silvy held Ant she was looking at me. She said the words that made it possible for me to breath normally again. “ Daddy is home.” Some of the best words I have ever heard. Gena walked in with a bottle for Ant handing it to me. “Figured it was you turn.” Gena said then walked away. I had forgotten she was here until now. My entire being was focused on Silvy. I got up from the floor and got on the couch to sit next to Silvy. I was so close I could have sat on her lap but didn’t. Silvy carefully handed Ant over to me so I could feed him. As soon as he was in my arms I held him to my chest as tight as I could with out hurting him. “ Yeah buddy, daddy is home. And he is going to stay that way.” I told him. It felt so good to have him back in my arms. The only thing better would be if I had an arm around Silvy as well. How was I so stupid to let this go? Never again. When Ant started to fuss I knew it was time to give him his bottle. I pulled him from my chest and cradled him so
Goof When I heard Silvy’s voice coming the living room I felt two things. Thrilled that she was willing to talk to me and concern that I may have woken her up. I’ll make the sleep up to her I vow to myself. Even if I have to stay up with Ant for two days so Silvy I will do it. I will deal with that later. I need to talk to Silvy, beg and get her to take me back. Lilly was right when she said that Silvy didn’t need me. I needed her. I know there is a list of men as long as my arm that would love to take my place. They are just waiting for me to screw up. I can name five off the top of my head. Dez, Lilly’s drummer, for one and I’m sure Lilly would help them hook up. Casper has shown interest. Two doctors at the hospital and a male nurse. I’m sure if I looked into it there are more guys. Silvy having a baby with me will not be a problem for any guy that knows and wants Silvy. They would gladly step and to be a dad to Anthony. It is up to me to make sure that doesn’t happen. In place
Goof I’m at the club house in the afternoon relaxing with my brothers. I was having a beer, playing pool and catching up. It has been a day and a half since I left Silvy’s house. I have slept most of the time I was gone if I wasn’t working. Man, I needed it. I feel so much better and I’m not at risk of falling asleep at work. I was at the table talking with Rowdy waiting for my turn at the pool table when Lilly an Tank walked in. They made a bee line for me. Tank helped Lilly sit down before going to the bar to get them a drink. Once he had their drinks and was seated Lilly asked “ Goof, is Ant any better today?” “ What are you talking about?” I asked her. Did Silvy tell her that Ant has been crying for days? They are close friends. “ Oh, is it Silvy that is sick?” Tank asked. “ Huh?” I questioned. I have no clue what they are talking about. They look at each other then back to me. “ We saw Silvy with Ant at the emergency room yesterday so we thought one of them might be sick.” Lil
Goof Our Anthony is two months old now. He stays up more and is more alert. Silvy and I have settled in to a working routine. And we are happy. Or I was. I love my son and my girl Silvy. I love them with everything in me. But today I need a break. Ant cried all day yesterday. No matter what Silvy did she couldn’t get him to stop for more than ten minutes. I tried myself but nothing worked. We both took turns through the night rocking him, trying to get him to eat, patting his back, Silvy even gas Ant gas medicine to try to help. Nothing worked. We were both exhausted. Silvy stayed downstairs in the living room so I could get some rest. I could still hear Ant through the night even if when I covered my ears with a pillow.I was only able to get a couple hours of sleep. When I woke up this morning I could hear Ant’s muffled cries though the closed door. What was wrong with that kid? I got up and checked the time. I had to be at the club in an hour for church. Fuck. I went to the bathr
