When Munch and I arrived at the clubhouse, I helped her off the bike, and we walked inside.
“Surprise!” Everyone shouted when we entered.
The clubhouse was decorated with blue and silver balloons. A banner was on the wall behind the bar. There were food and drinks galore. I didn’t expect any of it, so I was just as surprised as Munch.
Carmen and Isis rushed over to us and hugged me before they squealed and hugged Munch. They grabbed her hands and pulled her away as my brothers came over to me.
“Welcome back, bro,” Tech said as he gave me a quick hug.
“You look refreshed,” Rico said as he hugged me as well.”
Slider, Tay, and Lamont greeted me as well.
“I am.” I glanced across the room and watched Munch for a second while she laughed with the girls.
“You’ve been with her for the last three weeks; she ain’t going anywhere,” Slider teased.
“I know she ain’t. I just want to make sure she’s good. You know that shit was rough for her.”
The whole time we were gone, my brothers and the girls didn’t hesitate to check on us every couple of days. I shared with them how I thought the shit affected Munch. They assured me that it was normal and that she would be okay in due time. The only thing I could do was be there for her in any way that she needed me.
“We know. She’s good now, thanks to you.” Rico patted my back.
“Y’all came through for both of us. If I never told y’all before, I appreciate y’all.”
“Don’t get all mushy and shit on us now,” Slider joked. “Let’s eat this food and have some drinks.”
We all agreed, then walked over where the girls were.
“You ready to eat?” I asked Munch as I snaked my arms around her waist.
Her body melted against mine as I kissed her temple.
“I am.”
I grabbed her hand, then led her over to the food table. We made our plates, and when I went to pour her a glass of wine, she stopped me.
“You not drinking?” I looked down at her with squinted eyes.
“Not alcohol. I’ll just take some juice.”
I rubbed my hand over my chin. She didn’t have to drink, but I noticed she didn’t drink while we were away either.
“Are you hiding something?” I glanced down at her stomach, then back into her eyes.
“Nope.” She grabbed my hand and pulled me to the table so we could sit down.
I had a feeling she was hiding something, but I knew it would come out at some point.
Once everyone had their plates, we sat at the table and ate and caught up with each other.
Drizzle was there, and she spoke to Munch and me, but she kept her distance. From what I was told, she had been holding the bar down, and she’d calm down on trying to fuck every dick that walked through the door. I was glad to hear it, at least for the bar. I didn’t care what she did with her pussy. I wanted Munch to not work as much anyway, so it was good that Drizzle held things down.
After everyone had finished eating, Tech stood at the head of the table.
“May I have everyone’s attention please?”
It took a few minutes for everyone to quiet down, but eventually, they did.
