I ran over a million different ideas for tonight. A fancy restaurant, a movie, the club, but none of them seemed to fit us. I want Molly to have a great date experience but I don't want to go to a stuffy restaurant, so finally I figured it out. It's a bit of a long ride, but she seems comfortable behind me, her arms around my waist holding me tight and occasionally resting her head on my shoulder. It feels so good to finally have my girl behind me. I pull into the alley and turn off the engine, I hold the bike steady as she climbs off and then flick out the kickstand.

"Where are we?" She asks as I unclip her helmet and rest it on the handlebar

"I worked on the guy who runs the door." I say as I point down the alley with my thumb.

"Come on." I say as I wrap my arm over her shoulder and guide her to the front. Man it feels good to have my girl under my arm, to be able to touch her whenever I want with out fear of being caught or being told it's wrong.

"Needles how you doing man?" Travis asks as we approach the door

"Good man, how's the back healing?" I reply as we shake hands

"It's looking damn good, I'm ready for the next session." He nods

"This is my girlfriend Molly." I say as he looks to her

"Good to meet ya doll, this guy gives you any trouble, you come see me." He winks

"Look at that my prices just doubled." I reply

"Alright I gotcha." He says holding his hands up "Go right ahead, I got you the best table."

He motions to the hostess who leads us to a table right up front by the stage, I pull out Mollys chair for her before sitting opposite her

"Is this a jazz club?" She asks as she slips off her leather jacket to reveal the sheer black shirt underneath, damnit, now I'm gonna have to sit through dinner with a hard on.

"It is, they play soft music during dinner service and then there's a live act." I reply pointing to the stage

"It's perfect." She smiles reaching across the table to grab my hand. Everything seems so right, so natural, as we finally spend time like a real couple. There's no awkwardness and Molly seems relaxed as we eat, soft jazz playing as we talk and eat

"So how did you get your nickname?" She asks

"My nickname?"

"Yeah, Needles, is it just because you tattoo and pierce?" She clarifies

"Well, it's embarrassing and if you tell any of the girls I'll deny it. But, when I was younger I got sick, my grandparents were on vacation so I was hanging around at the clubhouse. One of the guys took me to the ER and hung around. When the nurse came to draw blood I passed out, landed face first on the floor and everything." I'm not sure she can hear me from her giggles, tears forming in her eyes as she tries not to lose it completely

"I'm sorry!" She says breathlessly between giggles

"Yeah well all the guys made fun of me and my 'fear of Needles' and it stuck." I huff

"Ok, I'm stopping, I'm sorry. And don't worry I won't tell anyone, I like people thinking my man is tough." She says trying to calm her breathing and stop laughing

"I like it when you call me that." I smile

"My man? Well I like it when you call me your girl." She replies. Dinner service ends and the live act comes on stage. I move my chair so Molly and I are side by side, my arm on the back of her chair as she shuffles up against my side. She's so engrossed with the band on stage but I can't take my eyes off her, her cute smile, how she taps her hand on her knee to the beat and bounces her knee. I never thought I would find some one who liked the same music as me, but she loves it.

I look behind Molly and see a few couples are dancing

"Dance with me." I say as I nod to the swaying couples

"I don't know how to dance to this music, I'm normally the one playing it." She blushes

"It's easy, come on." I say as I stand, I take her hand and she follows me to where the others are dancing. I place her other hand on my shoulder before wrapping my arm around her lower back, I lift our joined hands and we begin to sway with the music.

"This is perfect." Molly sighs before resting her head on my chest as we sway

"I'm so lucky I found you." She adds

"I'm the lucky one to have such a beautiful girl in my arm." I reply before kissing her forehead.

The performance ends all too soon and I take her hand as we walk out back to my motorcycle

"You wanna go to Scars?" I ask as I help her put on her helmet

"Now we can be together there, definitely." She smiles.

I take it easy on the ride back, enjoying the feeling of her wrapped around me and resting my hand on her thigh when I can. This is it for me, Molly is mine for good, and I'm hers.

Eventually we arrive at Scars and we walk in hand in hand, I roll my eyes as Addy and Scarlett whistle and cheer.

"I'll get you guys a drink on the house." Scarlett says as she walks off towards the bar, Molly moves to sit by Addy but I stop her, sitting down and pulling her into my lap where she should be, I smirk when she blushes

"Did you have a good date?" Addy asks from Docs lap

"It was perfect." Molly smiles as I wrap my arms around her waist.

"No way! Molly I thought we had something." Ace says dramatically with his hand on his heart

"She's mine." I growl

"Hey no problem man, now I know why you stopped being such a cranky ass, more girls for me, maybe I'll take a couple home tonight to console them." Ace smirks before heading off upstairs

"You wanna dance?" Addy asks

"Will you dance with me?" Molly asks looking over her shoulder at me

"You're my girl, of course I will." I smile, we head over to the dance floor but Addy pulls me back

"She hasn't smiled like this since she got here, you're good for her." Addy smiles.
