Chapter 59 Patch Over

Chapter 59 Patch Over
Later that week, the club learned about MJ's kidnapping. Jessi felt horrible that she hadn't been there. Thankfully it ended well. Part of the club rode out and had just arrived back home in time for the patch over party.

It was Saturday night, and the Patch Over party was tonight. Viper was stepping down as Prez, and Bishop his first born was taking over as Prez. Steel was stepping down and his only son KC was taking over a VP. 

Once Dalton and Harley had finished their college degrees, both joined Mac as the club's tech guys. Dalton also took over as Treasurer when Sym stepped down. Mac had officially stepped down a while back, his eyesight had started to get bad. Once Marty joined the club he'd be taking over as SAA for Cage. 

Mac's oldest son Army, had taken over as Road Captain after he got out of the armed forces about five years ago. His youngest son Shadow, was taking over as SAA for Joker.

Paris treated Jessi to a spa day. They did manicures, pedicures, facials, and got their hair done at the salon. Jessi had missed doing these things with her mom. While they were out, there was a help wanted sign up at the salon. 

The local daycare was looking for help. Jessi had loved babysitting when she was in high school. She took her love of kids after her mom. Paris encouraged her to call them and apply for the job. 

Jessi was hesitant as she was unsure it would be a good enough job for a career. Paris assured her that as long as it was what she loved doing, it didn't matter if it a high paying career or not. After the salon, they went to a shop to find something to wear for tonight.

Paris got black leather pants, and a black tank with silver buckles. She'd wear her leather property vest over it. Jessi got a white leather skirt that hit mid-thigh, her top was off the shoulder and was white with silver buttons down the front. The hem just barely touched the waist of her skirt. She got a silver belt and silver sandals to go with it.

They headed home after all their shopping and pampering. Jessi felt the best she had in months if not years. Now if she could only get the guy. When they walked into the house, Bishop let out a low whistle.

"Wow how did I get so lucky to have a hot wife, and gorgeous daughter?" He asked.

"Dad." Jessi groaned.

"Babe, you riding on the bike with me or taking your car?" Bishop asked.

"Since I spent so much money at the salon on me and Jessi, I'm taking the car." Paris replied.

"Ok, I'm heading out. I'll see you two there." He kissed Paris on the mouth, and Jessi on the forehead as he left.

"Did you tell dad about KC?" Jessi asked.

"Of course. We have no secrets. Long story honey." Paris replied.

Jessi groaned. "What did he say?"

"That he couldn't have picked a better man for you himself." Paris replied.

"Wow really?" Jessi asked in disbelief.

"Yep. And if it brings you home to the club for good, win win." Paris laughed.

Jessi rolled her eyes at her mom. Paris laughed. A little while later they left for the clubhouse. As soon as they walked in, Jessi was on edge. She was scanning everywhere for Danielle. She was relieved when she didn't see her. MJ and Madi quickly grabbed her in hugs.

"We missed you! When are you coming back to Uni?" They demanded.

"Umm, we'll talk later, ok?" Jessi asked.

"Ok." They both agreed.

Jessi continued to scan the room. Someone came up behind her and leaned down close to her ear giving her goosebumps. She immediately knew who it was. MJ and Madi both had questioning eyes and smirks.

"She's not here." KC whispered.

"Oh, sorry." Jessi replied.

"Can we talk?" He asked.

"Sure." Jessi agreed.

He took her hand and lead her through the main room. They went outback and sat at a picnic table. The sun was just starting to go down and it wasn't quite dark yet.

"Is there something you want to tell me?" He asked.

"Something tells me you already know what you want me to say." Jessi returned.

"I watched the video. I heard what she said. Thing is, I'd been having doubts about marrying her for a while." He explained.

"I guess your instincts finally kicked in." Jessi remarked. "I have no idea what you saw in her in the first place."

"Sex." He laughed.

"I do not want to hear that, at all." Jessi retorted.

"You and Jake?" He asked.

"Just friends." She replied.

"You and bitch face?" Jessi asked.

"Not friends. And over." He replied.

"Good. She wasn't good enough for you anyway." Jessi replied. "She's a rotten person. You deserve so much better."

"I agree." He agreed.

"Why didn't it work out for you and Jake? He seems like a good guy." KC remarked.

"He is. It's just I started out dating him to get over someone, but it didn't work." Jessi responded.

"Is this someone still in the picture?" He hedged.

"Yes and no. I mean I still having feelings for him, but I don't think he thinks of me like that." Jessi quietly replied.

"Maybe he didn't until it was brought to his attention. And just maybe you should tell him." He replied.

Jessi took a deep breath and let it out. "I think I've had a crush on you since I was eight. When you left for the services, I was so upset. I asked after you all the time. Uncle Frank would talk about you anytime I asked. I think its because he missed you as much as I did."

KC took her hand in his. It tingled, her heart fluttered, and it felt like hundreds of butterflies were in her belly. She almost missed his quick intake of breath at their touch. He pulled her towards him and his lips lightly touched hers.

It was like none she'd ever felt. Tiny goosebumps felt like they went from head to toe. His eyes widened a little, but she still saw it. Maybe it wasn't one sided after all. Just maybe there was hope for her to get the guy after all. Dare she hope? Yes, she dares, and she'd pray while she was at it too.

"For the record, I never looked or thought of you as anything but family until you were 16. Even then I just acknowledged your beauty and stopped it there, never allowing myself to go further. Last year when I first arrived home, how you'd grown into a beautiful woman made me stand up and take notice. But you were in college away, and again I stopped myself from thinking anything further." KC explained.

"Really?" Jessi gasped.

"Does our age difference bother you?" He asked.

"Not at all." Jessi quickly replied.

"I'd like to see if there's anything there between us, if you're ok with that? I can't promise anything other than a need to see if there could be an us." He explained.

"I'd like that." Jessi agreed.

She scooted closer to him. His lips met hers, this time a little more heated. They explorer hers and then his tongue explored her mouth. It didn't take long for it to get very heated. Before they knew it she was on his lap, with his arms wrapped tightly around her.

The sound of the door slamming, had them jumping apart. They looked to see who it was, but whoever had obviously went back inside not wanting to interrupt. KC looked at her and laughed, then she too laughed. 

KC stood up and so did Jessi. She leaned her body into his. He kissed her one more time then pushed her away from him. He saw the hurt and confusion in her eyes.
