I watched as my best friend in the entire world rode away on his bike. Our other friend, Jax shot me an apologetic look then hopped on his bicycle and took off after him.I knew Jax felt as helpless as I did about the situation but I understood he had to go after him. I felt the tears roll down my face. I shouldn't have told him that Jess, my only female friend, had preferred Jax. I didn' think it would bother him like that. It never did, but what did I know? I was a stupid twelve year old girl. I didn't think he'd get this upset. I watched as the gravel flew up from his tires. Jax gave me a smile and a wave over his shoulder.

"Harry please wait I'm sorry!" I didn't know it then but that was just the first time that Harry 'Opie' Winston broke my heart and it most certainly wasn't the last.

"Earth to Faye, Faith, Luanne Faith, " I snapped out of the memory quickly, seeing a hand wave in front of my feeling was so strong It was like I was 12 years old again.I shook the cobwebs out of my head to see Jax's smiling face. I took a moment to check my surroundings. I was at the garage sitting at one of the picnic tables and Jax was sitting across from me, still grinning.

"Glad to see you're back darlin'. I was beginning to get worried." I rolled my eyes.

"Shut it Teller. What do you want anyway?" He flashed me one of those million dollar smiles again and again I rolled my eyes. "Just spit it out."

"Well Ope and I would really enjoy it if you went out to dinner with us." I could smell the bullshit rolling of off him. I glanced behind him to see the new prospect walking by. He was older than we are but not by much. I was a year younger than Jax and Opie, making me 18 and still a kid in Opie's eyes. Anyway back to the prospect, he was in his early twenties I'm guessing. Jax followed my gaze just as Seth, I think that's his name, started staring at my cleavage. His thoughts written clearly on his face. In an instant, Jax was up out of his seat and in his face.

"You got a death wish asshole?" He shook his head but replied sarcastically.

"No I don't but I've been around long enough to know that she doesn't belong to anyone. She's definitely not your old lady, the brunette is." Jax turned his face away from him with a wicked smirk on his face. Before his hand could connect with his face someone grabbed his arm.

"She may not be anyone's old lady but she's family and you don't fuck with family." The venomous tone Opie' voice took on frightened me and excited me in ways that a man that's supposed to be like my brother should not. He turned his heated glance towards me.

"You okay kid?" I inwardly groaned annnnnddd the sexy feeling was gone just like that. I hated when he called me kid. I'm a grown ass woman.

"Yeah I'm okay," it wasn't until that moment that I realized there was someone with Ope. He stepped slightly to the left and I seen her. It was Donna. It was hard for me to like her but also hard for me not too with the way Opie was always talking about her. She was a sweet girl with a wild side who got hilarious when drinking. From what I could tell she loved him, not like I do, but she leaned down and gave her a small kiss and I felt my chest tighten. They started quietly whispering while his face held a big smile. I heard my name as Opie shrugged his shoulders. Donna shook her head and made her way over to me. I arched my eyebrow as she approached.

"Hey I was wondering if you wanted to go out to dinner with Opie, Jax, Tara, and me." I looked at Jax and he had the cat that ate the canary smirk on his face. Oh yeah Faith go out with me and Ope for dinner, nothing about their girlfriend s.

"Please say yes. I think it would be a wonderful time for us to bond and I really want to be friends."Great now I couldn't say no.

"Sure I've got nothing better to do since my date with Seth has been cancelled," I saw Jax's jaw muscle tick. "Kidding Jax kidding."

Surprisingly I really enjoyed myself at didn't go to some fancy restaurant so I didn't feel out of place in my tank top, jeans and open blue plaid button down. The little diner we went to had a family kind of feel about it. I got the impression that Tara didn't really like me but she was nice to me. To my even bigger surprise I really liked Donna. Her and I had so much in common, favorite movies and tastes in things. We both had a secret love for country music. She was really great . I think that's when the sadness hit. That should be me. We would be so great tears welled up in my eyes and for once I was glad my mom wasn't home. Mom is a nurse at . She normally works the day shift but they needed her tonight. I was glad for it. I didn't want to explain why I was crying.I made my way to the bathroom and plopped down on the floor and let myself cry. That should be me. She won't ever love him like I do. I lost myself in crying that I didn't hear the front door open. I heard footsteps down the hallway. I hurried up and dried my eyes. I quickly tried to wash my face but it was too late. Jax was already standing in the bathroom door frame. He walked into the bathroom and sat down on the floor with me. He wrapped me up in his arms and the tears started to flow again.

"So you like her huh?" I nodded.

"She's wonderful. You can tell she really loves him. He really loves her. She's so much..." he kissed the top of my head.

"I know."

"Jax how'd you know I was upset?" He pulled my face up to look at him. The tears stopped.

"Cause I know you Luanne.' I wrinkled my nose up.

"Don't first name me Jackson." He chuckled.

"Come on, we've known each other forever Faith. " I nodded and rested my head against his shoulder.

"Thanks for coming by Jax."

"Anytime darlin''
