Chapter 2

Opie and Jax followed her closely back to her mom's room. She was emotionless she wasn't crying, wasn't angry, she didn't seem happy but they weren't sure what was going on with her. She has started packing things in the room. All the pictures, get well cards and their things.

Anna looked at her mother's body that was cover with a sheet and went over and pulled the sheet back and kissed her cheek. She then walked past the boys and right out of the hospital. She wasn't sure what she felt at this time. Was she happy that her mom no longer was suffer or was she mad because her mom left her, or was she sad because she was all alone? She wasn't sure just yet.

Jax rubbed his face. He knew this was going to be hard for both his friend and this poor girl. "We should go find her and make sure she is okay" he said tapping Opie's shoulder who just nodded heading out to find his sister.

Anna was putting the box into her mother's 1984 Toyota 4x4 single cab dark blue truck. It was lifted about 2.5 inches with 32 inch tires on it. KC lights in the bed of the truck. This truck was Anna's baby and she loved working on it, and it was easy to see she had worked on it a lot.

Opie walked over to her. "Look I know you have been through a lot. We need to talk though. Please can we go talk? It's really important" he said looking into her green eyes.

She looked at him. "Fine there is a diner just a couple blocks. I have to get away from here though before I kill that piece of shit doctor" she said climbing into her truck. "Follow me" she said as the truck rumbled to life. She wasn't sure what he wanted, but it didn't seem like he would hurt her.

Once they got their they got a table and sat down. Jax was watching the brother and sister and knew this was not going to be easy.

Opie looked at his sister. "Im sorry about your mother. Look this is not easy, but I don't have a choice. I'm your older brother, our dad is in jail so I'll be watching over you for a while." He said getting it out.

Annabelle stared at the man across from her. He looked to be in his 30's, a beanie on his head, full facials hair, plaid shirt, blue jeans, and his cuts. "So let me get this straight... I have a dead mother, biker brother, and a father in jail? Damn well aren't we just the picture perfect family" she said laughing a little. "I knew there was something about you when I first walked past you. So what do you know about raising a teenage girl?" She asked with a smirk that looked like trouble.

Opie knew that smirk meant trouble she seemed she might be a bit of trouble for him. "I know they don't always like to follow rules, but a belt will take care of that just fine" he said being a little harder but didn't want to be too hard. He then felt he might have over stepped.

Jax almost sip out the water he had just taken a sip of when he seen her face drop.

Annabelle glared at her big brother. "Would love to see ya try. You'll have a nice fight on your hands"

After talking a bit they found out she wasn't allowed to drive by herself so Opie when with her in the truck. She took them back to her apartment to start packing, since Opie told her they would have to leave right after her mother's services.

They walked into the apartment and looked around. Not a lot was unpacked so this was going to be the easy part. She picked up the pipe that was on the table and placed it to her lips. After taking a hit she looked at Opie who looked like he was about to say something. "Its just weed bro. Chill, don't get your leather thong in a bunch"

Opie bit his tongue he didn't like her choice of words or her attitude problem right now but with him just meeting her he didn't want to start any problems just yet. "I know it's just weed Annabelle. That isn't the point. The point is you shouldn't be smoking your too young"

She just laughed at her brother. "I smoke all the time and mom always let me. What's the big deal? It's not meth or coke" she said rolling her eyes at him. God was he really going to be like this?

Opie sighed sitting down and rubbed his face. His sister was already get on his nervous and he only knew her for a few hours.

She glanced around her apartment and sighed. She was going to miss this place. She had no idea where she was going or what she would be doing. This sucked! She had to leave everything all over again and do it without her mother this time. She was going to make the best out of her last few days here though.

Jax looked at Opie. "Im going to call Clay and see if I can get him to bring mom and a couple trucks up to get her stuff" he said pulling out his phone and headed out on the balcony to my call.

Opie nodded and looked at his sister. "So... tell me a little bit about yourself"

She looked at him and laughed a little bit "so do you want the long version or the short version?" She asked going to the kitchen and grabbed three beers. She popped them open and handed one right over to him.

He looked at her. "You drink too?" He asked looking at the beer. "I want the version you want to tell me" he said.

She laughed at him. "Chill. Weed and beer aren't that bad." She said. "Well my name is Annabelle Nicole Winston I'm 15, I have about 8 piercings my nose, my lip, my back anchors, both eye lobes, and two eye cartilage." She said showing him them. "I have three tattoos you aren't going to see them all" she said laughing watching her brother looking at her like she is crazy.

Opie rubbed his face this was going to be hard and he knew it was going to be so hard with dealing with this girl. He hated her being like this, and knew it was only going to get harder from here. The death of her mother hasn't hit her yet, and he was not sure if he was ready for that storm.
