…Chapter Two…
For the whole day, Angelica didn't see Damon at all. Not when she woke up in the morning, or after she came home from work. She thinks that he must have left an hour before her alarm went off, but for what he did to Mia, she didn't really want to see him anyway. She was that mad at him.
Angelica picked Mia up from school, visited with Cassidy for a while, then went home to fix dinner. She sent a text to Damon telling him about it, but she got no response back, so she didn't bother to even fix him a plate. After she cleaned up and did the dishes, she helped Mia with her homework, then got her to bed, and still, nothing from Damon.
It wasn't until after one thirty in the morning, when Angelica heard his car pulling into the drive way. "Oh, hell no." she muttered, crawling out of bed, then put on her robe and went downstairs waiting for him to walk in. As soon as the door opened, she crossed her arms. "What are you doing here?"
"Uh, I live here." Damon said, in a 'duh' tone of voice.
"I really don't want you here right now."
"Why? Because I missed a silly little play? Get real, Angie."
"That play was extremely important to her. She worked really hard and she wanted you to be there."
"I had work, you know that."
Angelica raised her eyebrow. "Do I? Are you sure it was work and not some dumb ass tramp that creeps around your building?"
"I don't know what you're talking about."
"Yeah, I bet." she chuckled. "So, did she get the job?" Damon opened his mouth to say something, but nothing came out, then Angelica pointed to the door. "You might as well turn around and go, because you're not staying here tonight."
"You can't be serious, this is my house too."
"Actually, my name is on the lease, therefor, it's mine… so, leave."
Damon stared at her in disbelief and shook his head. "Fine." then he slammed the door behind him, and drove off.
Once Angelica knew he was gone, she locked up everything, and went to check on Mia, but she saw that she was awake. "Sorry, did I wake you?"
"No." Mia sat up a little bit. "I've been awake for a while."
"Do you want to sleep in my bed with me?"
"Yeah." Mia got out of her bed and followed Angelica into her room, and both of them got comfortable, and laid down. "It wasn't a silly play." Mia said, after a few minutes.
"I know it wasn't." Angelica gave Mia a kiss on her forehead. "Let's go to sleep. You have school in the morning. Good night, Baby Girl."
"Good night, Mommy." Mia yawned, then both of them fell asleep.
...
A few days after Angelica and Damon's fight, she had gotten a weird text from Piney that said "I need you in Charming. Get here as soon as you can. Come alone." she thought that it was strange, but took a day to think it over, and now, she's on her way to see what he wants. Luckily, she didn't have to travel that far, living in Seattle, Washington.
Suddenly, her phone rang and she smiled, hearing the ringtone, then grabbed it from her lap and pressed the talk button. "Hey, Baby Girl."
"Hi, Mommy."
"How's it going over there?"
"It's fine." Mia heavily sighed.
"Honey, why do you sound so down?"
There was a long pause before Mia spoke. "Because I miss you and Daddy's not here."
"Where's Aunt Cassidy?"
"In the kitchen." Mia paused again. "When are you coming home?"
"Soon, Baby, maybe in a few days. I just have to see what Grandpa wanted and after that, I'll come back home, okay?"
"Okay, I gotta go. My lunch is ready. I love you, Mommy, bye - bye."
"Love you too, Mia… bye." Angelica told her and hung up her phone, then dropped it in her lap. A few minutes later, she sighed, as she passed the 'Welcome to Charming' sign. She wasn't sure what she was going to expect, because she definitely wasn't ready for this visit. Angelica had already seen Piney, but she was more nervous seeing the two people that broke her heart, and she wasn't sure where she wanted to go first.
The first place she went - Donna's house, but nobody was home. Second place - Piney's house and again, nobody was home. Finally the last place - she pulled into the parking lot of Teller-Morrow, and parked her 2011 navy blue Dodge Challenger, and got out.
"Here goes nothing." she muttered, walking up to the two guys she's never seen before, wearing the T-M work shirts. "Excuse me." she said, getting their attention. "Could either of you tell me where Piney is?" the skinny guy ignored her, so she turned her attention to the big guy and read his name tag. "Uh, Filthy Phil, do you know where Piney is?"
"He might be in the clubhouse, but if not, then you'd have to talk to Opie."
"What?" Angelica's eyes widened. "Opie's out of Chino? When?"
"I'm not exactly sure, I'm just a Prospect."
"Well, where is he?"
"Wait." the skinny guy held up his hand, kind of glaring at her. "Who are you?"
Angelica scoffed, reading his name tag. "Rat Boy, I'm Opie's little sister… now, where is he?"
"Inside." he pointed to the clubhouse.
"Thanks, Boys." she said, walking away. Once she got to the door, she took a few deep breaths before going in. "Everything still looks the same." she thought to herself. "Except for the chapel doors. What the hell happened to those?"
"Hey." she heard behind her. "Can I help you with something? Are you lost?"
"No, not at all." she chuckled as she turned around with a smile. "What's up, Trager. Long time no see."
"No fucking way!" Tig scooped her up in a hug and spun her around. "What are you doing here, Angie?"
"I'm here." she paused, as she let go. "For a short visit."
"Why a short visit?"
"I'm just here to see what my Pops is doing. Have you seen him?"
"No, Doll, not for a day or two. Opie might know." Tig smacked her arm. "Oh, yeah, Ope's out of Chino."
"Yeah, that's what one of the Prospects told me outside. How long has he been out?"
"For over three, maybe four years."
"Awesome." Angelica nodded. "So, where is my brother?"
Tig sighed. "He's around here somewhere. Have you seen Juice yet?"
"Nope… and I don't want to see Kyle either."
"Well, that won't be a problem." Tig chuckled.
Angelica raised her eyebrow. "What do you mean?"
"A little after Ope got out." Tig started, leaning in a little closer. "Hobart shows his face at one of the fundraisers, with his kids and his bitch. Later on, we got him to come here, because he still had the reaper on his back."
"Oh, no." Angelica shook her head. "That's a no-no."
"Right, so we gave him a choice: fire or knife."
"I really hope he chose fire."
"He did." Tig smirked. "And I burned it off of him."
"Good, the bastard got everything he deserved, for what he did to my brother and to me."
Tig raised his eyebrow. "What'd he do to you?"
Angelica shook her head. "It doesn't matter." and before Tig could open his mouth to respond, out of the corner of her eye, she saw Jax, Opie, and Chibs walking in. "Never mind, I found him."
Tig turned around. "Hey, guys… guess who decided to drop by?"
"Angie!" Opie tackled her into a bear hug. "Shit, when'd you get here?"
"Not too long ago, but I've missed you." she let go of him and gave Jax a hug. "Hello, Handsome… nice hair cut."
Jax chuckled, letting go. "Thanks."
"Hello, Love." Chibs scooped her into a hug. "I've missed the hell out of you."
"Yeah, me too." she nodded, then let go.
"So, what are you doing here?"
"Well, Jackson." she smiled at her best friend. "I'm here to talk to Pops." she looked up at Opie. "Do you know where he is?"
"Probably over at the cabin."
"Can you take me there?"
"I would, Sis, but he's a little pissed off right now. I'd wait until he calms down, because I'm sure he wants to be alone with his Scotch."
Angelica thought about it for a moment. "Okay, I can wait. How's Donna?"
"She's, um…" Opie looked away scratching the back of his neck.
"Whoa, whoa, wait a minute." Jax cut him off, and picked up Angelica's hand, seeing a pretty good size princess cut diamond ring. "Little Miss 'I'll-never-ever-get-married-in-my-entire-life' is actually engaged?"
Angelica punched him in his arm. "Yes, I am."
"Who is he? Does he treat you good?"
Angelica saw the concern in Opie's eyes and nodded. "His name is Damon, and yes he does."
"He better." Jax, Opie, and Tig said, in unison.
"Or we'll kick his ass!" Chibs added.
"Yeah." Angelica laughed. "I'll keep that in mind."
Jax grabbed her hand and led her over to the couches. As they sat down, the guys followed and sat down as well. "So." Jax leaned back. "Where you living at now? I mean, you just up and leave, and not tell anyone where you're going or why."
"After I left Charming." Angelica started. "I moved to Colorado, then five years ago, I moved up to Seattle with my best friend Cassidy and my, uh, daughter Mia."
"You have a daughter?" Opie asked. "How old is she?"
"She's turning seven, two months." Angelica held up her hand. "And before you ask, yes, she might be."
"What do you mean, she might be?"
Angelica glanced at Jax. "It's a long story, which I'd rather not get into."
"Do you have a picture of her?"
"Yeah." Angelica reached into her wallet and gave one of her pictures to Opie. "This was taken three weeks ago." she noticed the smirk on her brothers face. "What?"
"Angie, what the hell are you talking about? She totally looks like him."
"Let me see." Jax snatched it out of his hand and nodded. "Yep…" he passed it over to Chibs and Tig to look it over, then smacked Angelica's arm. "Why would you say she might be?"
"I don't know." she shrugged. "There's always that 50/50 chance."
"There is no way, Doll, that she would look like anyone else, well, besides you, of course." Tig said, giving her back the picture. "Your daughter is definitely his."
"Well, that's good news." Chibs smiled. "Juicy Boy is a daddy."
Angelica sighed. "Just… don't tell him, because he should hear it from me."
Tig put his arm around her. "I won't tell 'em. I hardly see him anymore. He's either at the warehouse or the new asshole sheriff is picking him up for a piss test, or keeping him in a cage over night."
"Aye." Chibs nodded. "He's been a bit… distracted."
"Oh." Angelica put the picture back in her wallet and took a breath. "So, what's been going on in Charming, while I've been gone." she noticed the guys exchanging glances, then she raised her eyebrow. "What? Is it bad?"
Tig nodded. "The majority of it."
"Alright, here it goes." Jax started, rubbing his neck, then for the next half hour, him and the guys explained to Angelica everything that has happened in Charming - from after Opie got out of Chino - to the events that are happening now, and everything else in between, except for major club business and what had happened to Donna. Tig nor Opie, and not even Jax wasn't ready to drop that bomb on her yet.
