Here is the next chapter. I'm sorry that it took me a while to get this chapter out. I got bombarded with finals and final projects that my stories had to take a backseat to my school work. But with school done for the summer I will be updating this story a lot more!
Thank you for all the adds and reviews. I appreciate it all. So thank you guys.
I do not own any characters associated with Sons of Anarchy. Just my own ideas and OC's
Jax stared down at Stefanie as she looked up into his eyes. She watched as the fury of what she had said dance in his usually calm blue-grey eyes. "What the hell is she doing back here Stef?" He asked as Stefanie bit her lip as she shook her head and stood up as she gave him a slight shrug. "WHY THE FUCK IS SHE BACK? WHY'D YOU WAIT SO FUCKING LONG TO TELL ME?" Jax all of a sudden screamed as Stefanie looked to the door worrying that their shouting had woken up the kids.
"Will you, keep your voice down." She warned as she ran her hands threw her hair. "I don't fucking know why she is back. She said that "She's changed" and that..." Stefanie began as she ran her hands over her face as she tried to wrap her own head around the conversation that had occurred earlier that day with her and her mother.
"And what Stefanie?" He asked as he walked closer to her. She watched as worry and tension crossed his features as she looked anywhere but his eyes.
"...and that she wants to "take me away" from Charming." Stefanie finished as she looked at Jax as he shook his head as he paced around their room, like an animal in its cage.
"Well that's fucking great. She fucking abandoned you Stef...and now she's back and wants to know our kids. Fuck that." Jax said as Stefanie looked over and nodded her head.
"I know okay. I know she abandoned me and left me to deal with my father's shit. You don't have to tell me that Jax." She stressed as she pointed her finger at Jax. "Just don't stand there and yell at me at me right now okay...I don't want her around the kids any more than you do. She's always has some alternative motive to why she wants to see me okay." She said as she as she ran her hands over her face. "And the reason why I "waited to tell you" was I don't know Jax maybe I actually wanted you out of jail and to not try and break out and get another 5-10 billed onto your time there." She finished as she shook her head and looked at Jax who kept looking everywhere else but not at her. "Okay is that up to your goddam standards as an adequate reason." She stated as she sat down on the bed and buried her head in her hands.
"All I'm saying is a little heads up would've been nice. Since my day's been pretty shitty if you can't tell." Jax stated as he walked around the room.
Stefanie rose from the bed and chuckled as she picked his clothes that he left on the floor. "You're an asshole." She muttered as she turned around and looked at Jax her arms full of clothes.
Jax looked at her confused as he found the clothes being thrown into his face.
"What the hell are you doing?" He asked as Stefanie looked at him with a smirk on her face.
"Fine…you don't trust me. I lied to you. You can sleep on the fucking couch." She replied as she walked over the bedroom door and held it open.
"Did I fucking say I don't trust you?" Jax questioned as Stefanie shook her head as she continued to keep the door open. "You're not serious." He questioned as Stefanie gritted her teeth.
"Jax, get out." She said as Jax shook his head as Stefanie glared into his eyes. "GET OUT JAX!" She said louder as Jax scoffed as he began to walk out of the room.
"We'll finish this in the morning." He stated as Stefanie looked up at him as she looked over his shoulder.
"Oh I can't wait." She replied sarcastically as Jax turned to the door pleadingly. "Night." She said as she shut the door in his face. She closed her eyes as she let the argument sink into her head.
Sighing she found herself sliding the floor as buried her face into her hands. Her mother, being back had already begun to wedge into her relationship, which is exactly what her mother wanted.
Outside the Teller House…
The flicker of the lit cigarette illuminated outside the car as the figure inside the car smiled proudly as they watched the lights inside the living room turn on as they watched Jax flop down onto the couch.
A wicked laugh sounded as they flicked their cigarette onto the ground outside the car as they drove away from the house and into the darkness.
Clay and Gemma had let themselves into the Jax and Stefanie's house as Gemma had plans to go out with Stefanie and the kids and Clay of course had to discuss club business with Jax.
Both walked into the house smiling and laughing as they both turned to the living room and noticed Jax was asleep on the couch. Clay smiled as Gemma shook her head as she looked over at her smirking husband. "You think this is funny?" She asked as Clay just shrugged. "Fucking kids." Gemma muttered as she walked over to the couch and kicked Jax in the ribs with her booted foot.
"What the fuck?" Jax responded as he woke and saw his mother and Clay in the room. "Shit." He said as he adjusted himself on the couch and looked to Gemma who had a pissed off look on her face. "I can explain." He said as Gemma placed her hands on her hips and looked on.
"Morning everyone." Stefanie said as she moved into the living room with Abel on her hip. She looked like she hadn't slept all night and her eyes were red and puffy as if she had cried herself to sleep.
"Morning." Jax said as he looked up at his wife and almost cringed at the sight of her, knowing it was his fault that the fight had started the night before.
"You mind feeding Abel…I gotta get Ember ready." She asked Jax as she handed Abel over to him. Gemma looked at both her son and Stefanie and could feel the tension that settled inside the room.
Stefanie looked up at Jax and smiled softly as she turned to leave and tend to their daughter. "Stef…" Jax called as he grasped her wrist softly.
"Later." Stefanie replied as she pulled away from his grip and walked into their daughter's room as both Clay and Gemma looked on.
"Start." Gemma ordered as Clay came up behind her and placed a hand on his wife's shoulder.
Jax looked to Abel as before looking to his mother. "It's not your problem Ma'" He said as he walked with Abel into the kitchen.
Gemma looked on and shook her head as she turned to Clay. "Well?" She asked as Clay just shrugged and followed after Jax. "It's the kids business. Let them handle it." He said as Gemma shook her head as she shook her head and went after Stefanie to get an answer.
Stefanie gently cradled her daughter as she sat in the rocking chair, trying to keep herself awake and to get her mind off the fight with Jax. She looked up as Gemma walked in and set her bag down on the ground and looked over at her as Stefanie shook her head.
"Not a good time for one of your famous lectures right now Gemma." She said as she looked back down at her daughter who was playing with one of her rings as Gemma looked down at her granddaughter and back at Stefanie who picked up her daughter and placed her in the crib.
Both women slowly backed out of the bedroom and closed the door as Stefanie walked down the hallway and into hers and Jax's bedroom.
"What the hell happened?" Gemma asked as she looked at Stefanie who shook her head as she started to get ready by pulling out jeans and a shirt as Gemma stood her ground.
Stefanie looked to Gemma who blocked her exit. "Get out of the way Gemma, this is about Jax and me. This has nothing to do with you." She said as Gemma shook her head and scoffed.
"You still don't get it sweetie…this has everything to do with me." She said as Stefanie dropped her clothes to the floor and ran her hands threw her hair. "This is my family Stefanie…and you know that. So whatever problems you and Jax have I have." She continued as Stefanie stood in front of Gemma and crossed her arms as Gemma continued to lecture her.
"I thought I told you I didn't want a lecture." Stefanie interrupted as Gemma was taken aback by the younger women standing in front of her. "You know what Gemma…I told Jax last night about Laura." She said as Gemma eye's slightly softened as Stefanie raised her eyebrows as she watched the matriarch in front of her stand down as Stefanie rested her hands on her hips.
"So you two fought." Gemma responded as Stefanie bit her lip and nodded.
"Yeah…Jax and I fought." She said as Gemma looked down as she shook her head.
"Happy…you know the big fight that happened last night. You can go now and you can you get out of my room. So I can get ready and go fix my marriage and my family." Stefanie replied as Gemma got up and left as she slammed the door behind Gemma.
Jax and Clay looked at each other as the they both heard the door close loudly and the sound of Gemma's heels on the hard wooden floors. "That can't be good." Clay said as he looked up to see Gemma leaving huffy.
"Everything okay?" Clay asked as Gemma as she stopped and looked at Jax, Abel and Clay.
Gemma nodded her head as she motioned toward the closed door. "We should go…let them talk." She said as Clay looked to Jax.
Clay got up as he clapped Jax on the shoulder. "I'll be outside." He said as Jax looked to Gemma who remained in the doorway as Clay made his exit.
"Fix it Jackson." Gemma said in a stern voice as the bedroom door opened and closed and Stefanie's footsteps came toward the kitchen.
Jax looked at his mother as he handed Abel over to his mother. "Ma…this has nothing to do with you." He said as Gemma nodded her head as she looked over as Stefanie rounded the corner and smiled as Abel as she picked up the mugs on the table and brought them to the sink.
Gemma took her leave as she placed Abel in his room before she herself joined Clay outside.
Jax took a deep breath before he looked over at Stefanie who had begun work on the dirty dishes from the night before in the sink. He ran his hand over his buzzed cut head as he looked Stefanie. "We gotta talk babe." He said as Stefanie finished the dishes and nodded her head.
"Let's talk." She said as she braced herself against the counter as the two stared into each others eyes.
