Excitement, the novelty of being a gun owner, and firing her weapon at the base today provided a new level of encouragement to Andria. She felt incredible.
“I want to celebrate with a bottle of wine and some dinner,” she told Jax.
“Celebrate what? Buying your first gun?”
She nodded with a smile. “Yes! I’m excited about this.”
“Understand owning a gun is not like buying a new car. It’s a weapon that you should never plan on using.”
Her smile faded slightly. “Wow, you’re a party pooper.”
He chuckled. “Sorry, I just mean don’t celebrate the fact you are now a gun owner. Celebrate your freedom and know you’ll be safe, no matter what.”
Freedom. Did she have her freedom? In a way, yes. She had freedom so long as she kept close to Jax. Did that mean she traded in one insecurity for another, though? She felt insecure about Draven, even after he went to prison. She constantly looked over her shoulder for him. She just knew he would be there. He never was but that wasn’t the point. He held that power over her. To get the power back, Draven went to prison, and she moved far away.
Now that he was back out in the world, she felt insecure again and to protect herself, she hired a bodyguard.
Was she really free?
Her smile faltered a little more. She turned toward her kitchen and opened the fridge door. She pulled out a bottle of Moscato and handed it over to Jax. “Open this, please?”
“Sure, but only if you tell me what just happened. I didn’t mean to, as you say, poop on your party.”
She laughed, she couldn’t help it. She shook her head. “No, it’s all right. I sometimes get caught up in my own head. I become my own worst enemy.” She handed him a corkscrew.
He screwed in the driver and pulled out the cork, handing it back to her. “Want to talk about it?”
She shook her head and poured wine into her glass. “No thanks. But what I do want to talk about is dinner. I’m starving.” She sat the bottle on the counter then took a seat.
He grinned. “Great. I want to cook something. Chicken or steak?”
She smirked. “Steak. Always.”
“My kinda girl. All right then.” He opened the fridge and began to pull contents out while she sipped on her wine.
My kinda girl.
My kinda girl.
I would love to be your girl.
She smiled and swirled the wine in her glass. She watched him as he moved about the kitchen. From preparing the steak to wrapping up potatoes in foil, the man knew his way around. He motioned for the back door. She stood and opened it for him as he stepped past. She made note of his backside again and smiled. His pants hugged around his ass in a way that screamed GRAB ME!
She giggled to herself. He looked up to her with a smirk.
“Something funny?”
Oh crap, he heard me laugh? She shook her head. “No, just clearing my throat.” She stepped outside and stood next to him.
