closely and nodding. When Kaylie brought Grant his check she looked him proudly in the face. Sloppy seconds didn't get this kind of escort home.
                  "Anything else Officer Grant?"
                  He shook his head and reached for his wallet. His hand was shaking slightly and his face was white as a sheet. Jack grabbed his hand, twisting it hard while Donnie grinned up at her and winked.
                  "No thank you. I'm- uh- sorry for not treating you like a lady."
                  She nodded at him regally.
                  "I accept your apology. Just see that it doesn't happen again. To any woman."
                  He nodded eagerly while his wrist was slowly wrenched underneath the counter.
                  "And tell Dev-"
                  She cocked an eyebrow at him.
                  "The charges are dropped."
                  With a whoosh of air he stood and dropped twenty bucks on the counter. In less than 30 seconds, he was gone.
                  A huge cheer went up from the crowd, bikers and staff alike. And then one of the prospects came behind the counter to help her dole out ice cream for everyone. He cleaned up afterwards too, much to Charlie’s amusement. By the time they all left she had a stack of twenty dollar tips a couple of inches high.

                  He was waiting for her when she walked into the clubhouse. It was late. She'd finished her shift later than usual. There had been a lot of ice cream bowls to put away from what he’d heard. Jack had waited outside while Donnie went back to the club to pick up Dev's SUV.
                  There was a nervous knot in the pit of his stomach as she walked toward him through the crowd of bikers. They all smiled at her as she passed. She was one of them now. They loved her as much as he did.
                  Love. There it was again. No point fighting it now. He loved her, for better or worse. He was praying he wasn’t about to get his heart ripped out by the woman he loved.
                  Finally she stood in front of him. She didn't smile or kiss him. She just raised her chin and stared him right in the eye.
                  "I didn't know if I wanted this kind of life."
                  His chest felt like it might explode but he forced his voice to remain steady.
                  "I understand. I won't be mad if this isn't what you want Kaylie. I could never be mad at you."
                  She looked down as if she were embarrassed about what she was saying. Like the words didn't come easy. He held his breath, hoping beyond hope that she wouldn't say they were through.
                  "I said I didn't know. But now I do."
                  When she looked up again he was shocked at the triumphant look blazing out of her eyes. It was strong and sure and confident. It was full of love. For him.
                  "I'm yours Devlin. For as long as you want me."
                  He almost laughed but he felt emotion choking his throat, making it tough to even talk. He cupped her face and stared into her eyes.
                  "Forever Kaylie. Is that long enough?"
                  She nodded as he watched tears fill her beautiful eyes. He clasped her to him harder and bent his lips to hers.
                  "Forever."
