“Okay. Lennon, come on inside.”

“I go now.” Lennon hands me her sticky bubble wand. I watch Norah until she disappears inside liking the way her ass looks in them jean shorts she’s wearing.

“Let’s get this car hooked, yeah.” I slap the back of Stud’s head with the bubble wand.

“Damn, man. What was that for?”

“Wipe that goofy grin off your face, jackass.”

“You like your hot little neighbor. You tapped that?”

“No. The fuck is wrong with you? I’m old enough to be her damn father.”

“What’s that got to do with fucking her? Her kid likes you. I see good things there if you play that to your advantage, old timer. You want her better make a move before Chaser gets her.”

“You don't know what the hell you’re talking about.” I shake my head. “Let’s get this over with.”

“All right, but you don't go around paying for new tires for just any woman to be nice. You want in there. I see it. I saw her looking at you too. I think you got a fair shot.”

“You’re an idiot.”

“But I’m right. Tell me I’m wrong.”

“She’s got a nice ass. Happy?”

“Knew it.” He grins as I follow him out front. “Hell. Who did she piss off?” He whistles when he gets a look at her car.

“Who do you think?”

“Eileen?” I nod. “Shit. That bitch is a nut.”

“Tell me something I don't know.”

“Fucking crazy. You keep your doors locked at night? Sharp objects close by?”

“She’s not a serial killer.”

“You coming by the clubhouse tonight?”

“I got shit to do.”

“Like what?”

“I got grass to cut.”

“Yard isn't that big. You got a date with old hairy palm?” he laughs.

“Fuck off.”

“You’ll be there.” He hooks Norah’s car, and I stare at the porch.

He’s probably right. I don't have anything better to do.

Chapter Seven

Norah

“Are you sure you don’t mind keeping Lennon for a few hours?” I know I only know Gianna from being Lennon’s teacher at daycare. Ace knows her husband. I guess they are all part of the same motorcycle club. The Black Rebel Riders’ MC. They seem like nice people. Plus, her brother is way hot and it’d be nice to spend time with adults. I want Lennon to have friends. Hell, I want friends. A life outside of being on the run from my past.
