Chapter 4

#%$%^$%^

Savannah took the morning off to go stay with Abel. She felt bad for not being there to wait out his surgery. She had heard about Wendy almost dying from shooting up, in her own hospital room no less, while Abel was in surgery. She honestly wasn't surprised by hearing that news. As long as she couldn't hurt her nephew again, she didn't give two shits about her and what happens to her. She was standing outside of Abel's room, she couldn't find it in herself to actually go in and sit beside the box he was being kept in to keep him alive. He was so tiny, it wasn't natural. He was a Teller, though. He was a fighter, and he had made it this far anyway. He wasn't going to die.

So why couldn't she go in and just sit with the kid?

She suddenly winced when she felt a pain in her stomach. Her hand shot up to her middle as she felt her legs give out a little. She felt dizzy all of a sudden. "Whoa, hey, Savannah!" a voice said out to her. She felt an arm wrap around her to help hold her up. She looked over to see that it was just Tara. She had heard that her brother's old ex had come back, but she hadn't really seen her since she came back. "Hey, you alright? Come on, let's sit you down." she told her as she helped her into Abel's room. She didn't waste any time in sitting Savannah down into the rocking chair.

She didn't know what Tara was making a big deal about. It was probably just her not sleeping well the night before. Not to mention the fact that she didn't have breakfast before she left to get to the hospital either. "I'm fine, Tara. I'm just hungry, I skipped breakfast to get over here to see Abel. I'll have Chibs pick me up something before he comes to pick me up." she told her as she pushed away her worried hands. She didn't seem to believe her, though, and that was clear on her face. "Really, Tara, I'm fine. How's little honest Abe over there?" she asked her as she looked over her shoulder to see the baby.

Tara still wasn't sure about Savannah being okay, but there was nothing she could do about it now. She'd just have to mention it to Jax later on if she saw him. If anything just so he'd keep an eye on her. "He's going to make it. The heart surgery went over well, and he's stronger than ever now." she explained to her. Savannah nodded her head in understanding, that was what she was hoping to hear. Maybe now she won't feel so guilty? Tara seem to know what she was thinking as she placed her hand on top of her's. "He's going to be fine, Savannah. You didn't hurt him at all, that's all on Wendy." she told her in attempt to comfort her. Savannah gave her a small smile and she knew then that she had succeeded in doing what she had wanted to do.

%$#%$#%^$

The small group of Jax, Juice, Chibs, and Half Sack walked into the garage together. They were on their way down to the cemetery, but they had to make a pit stop before they left. They paused when they spotted her shoes sticking out from under one of the cars. The four men all shared a look before going over to her. Juice and Half Sack leaned against the car on either side of her while Jax and Chibs stood in front of her. "I'm already behind on this stupid piece of junk car, Jax. I'm not taking anyone else at least until lunch." she said out to her brother, not needing to hear his voice to know that it was him standing in front of her. All she needed to see was his shoes and she knew that it was him.

The four boys shared another look as they chuckled. Leave it to Savannah to know that her brother wanted something from her before he even started to say a word. "Lowell will take over for you today. Club needs your help with something." Jax said out to her as he pocketed his hands in his jeans. She didn't say anything, but they could tell from the now silence that she had stopped working on whatever it was that she was working on. Jax sighed, knowing that he would need to explain more to convince her to come. "It's nothing major, Sav. We just need you to work your . . . charming personality, on someone." he explained as best he could down to her. Since it was club business, he couldn't tell her too much, but he could tell her enough to convince her to come.

Another minute went by without an answer from her, and soon Jax became inpatient with her lack of answering him. He rolled his eyes and growled slightly as he bent down and grabbed a hold of her ankles. With one firm tug, she came rolling out from underneath the car. A scream of surprise left her lips, only to be replaced with a look of annoyance when she saw that it was her brother who had pulled her out. "Seriously, Jax! I'm almost done with this thing!" she snapped at him. He didn't seem to care though, he just wanted his answer from her. She huffed, knowing that now she would have to answer him. "What do I need to do and why can't Half Sack do it?" she asked him as she looked between the three of them.

"That's a good girl, lassie." Chibs piped in with a low chuckle.

Savannah just ignored him with an eye roll. She normally didn't like loading more crap on Half Sack's plate, especially since it usually resulted in the boys making fun of him by the time he's finished, but after her visit to see Abel today, she was put in a bad mood. This piece of junk that she was working on being a pain in her ass wasn't helping her mood either. "What can we say, Sav? He can't pull off the bend and stretch as well as you can." Juice spoke up, flashing her a mischievous grin. He chuckled as she rolled her eyes back at him. He took the chance to reach out and help her up to her feet. She took a hold of his hand, a shock running through them both from the touch, and he lifted her up with one tug. When she pulled her hand away from his, he felt suddenly lost for a brief moment, like he had lost something when she left his reach.

She looked between the four of them and saw that they were all serious about this. They really did need her help with whatever this was that they needed. "Fine, but I'm not dressing up like a sweet butt. I draw the line there." she told them all firmly. She'd flirt with whoever they needed her to, but that was where she stopped. She was not a whore to pass around like the sweet butts. Not that Jax would let her be one even if she wanted to be, but she could stand up for herself. She had more respect for herself than to let it come to that. None of them seemed to object to her terms, which was good. She rolled her eyes at them and tossed Half Sack her wrench. "I've got to go clean up before we go. Can't work my 'charm', as Jax so kindly put it, if I'm covered in grease." she told them as she wiped her hands off quickly with her rag before going to squeeze in a quick shower. She sneaked in a quick wink to Juice before she vanished from their sights.

#^%$%^$

The five of them left to go to the cemetery once Savannah was out of her shower and redressed. Savannah, Juice, and Half Sack led the way inside as the two boys pushed the doors opened. Savannah stood in between them as they all peeked their head inside, the awful stench of burning flesh hitting them head on. The three all shared a uncertain look together before looking around again. Savannah was the first to notice the man by the furnace. She mentally groaned in disgust upon seeing him. He always gave her the creeps when they brought her along to the cemetery. She looked back at her brother and Chibs with an 'are you serious?' look. "I hate you." she hissed at her brother.

"Love you too, sis. Now come on, go." he whispered back to her as he motioned for her to walk forward.

She rolled her eyes at him and looked forward again. Unlike what they had promised to get her to come, they had made her change into something more . . . provocative, before actually coming over here. She managed to keep her biker boots, but they had made her trade in the over sized biker shirt for a crop top that barely reached her belly button and tight ass ripped jeans she rarely ever wore. "They really cremate bodies here?" Half Sack asked out to the other guys behind him.

"Yeah, we do." Chibs piped in.

Savannah rolled her eyes at him as she moved forward, glancing around the rest of the room with little interest. She hated coming here, but it was probably the only time Jax ever included her in club business outside of the bar and the garage. "Hey, guys." the man said back to them as he finished up with whatever, or rather whoever, he was burning. He seemed to lighten up with nervousness when he spotted Savannah, just like he always did when they brought her along. "Sa-Savannah, uh, um . . . hi. Um, wh-what's going on?" he said to her before looking over at the guys.

"Need a favor, Skeeter." Jax told him as he squeezed by Chibs and Juice as they shut the doors behind them.

"Should be Skeever." Savannah muttered to Half Sack beside her as they looked around while Chibs and Jax went over to Skeeter and Juice finished up with locking the doors behind them all.

Half Sack looked down at her in surprise, not expecting to hear her say that, at least out loud and where they could all hear her. "Christ, man. Now's not a good time." they heard him tell her brother. She rolled her eyes, laughing to herself, as she watched Half Sack swing on the chain hanging down above them. "Got a new supervisor crawling up my ass." he explained to them as he tried to keep himself busy by moving back and forth around the room. Savannah kept clear out of his way, but the same couldn't be said about Half Sack since he was trying to get a peek inside of the furnace.

She shook her head when she saw Skeeter smack Half Sack off the back of the head to get him away from the burner. She rolled her eyes when she saw his shocked expression, clearly not seeing the point of hitting him. "Relax. Not here to make a deposit." Jax said out to him as he leaned against the table on the other side of the room. Savannah looked back at the doors to see that instead of coming more inside with her and the others, Juice had stayed put and was now standing guard in front of them all. She shot him a quick look, sticking her tongue out at him. He tried not to, but he couldn't stop himself from chuckling and shaking his head back at her.

"Actually, it's a withdrawal." Chibs told him as he pushed Half Sack back.

The last thing that they needed was for the prospect to try and show off. Savannah edged her way over to Juice, just wanting to be as far away from the burning flesh smelling burner as she possibly could be. Juice knew she hated coming here, though, and in all honesty, he didn't like coming here any better than she did. He especially hated bringing her here too. He knew how much Skeeter creeped her out. "We need two bodies. Fresh." Jax explained to the man. He wished that he could keep the details there, but some people were just not smart enough to know that.

"You serious?" he asked them.

He looked around the group to see that none of them were laughing, or were going to anytime soon. They were really serious about this, and that might be what scared him the most. "For what?" he asked them, as if he really expected to get an honest answer from one of them. Like that was going to happen.

Jax looked over at Savannah, giving her that look that told her that it was up to her now to get him to stop asking questions and agree already. She sighed and nodded back to him. She gave one last look over to Juice, who didn't look anymore happy about it, before stepping forward and over to the larger man. "Well, I could tell you, Skeeter," she said out to him with a fake smile plastered on her face. "but then I'd have to kill you." she whispered to him teasingly, giving him a wicked smile that often reminded the boys of Gemma.

The guy laughed nervously as he looked down at her. She kept her grin on her regardless of the chill running down her spine. The fact that he was looking right down her shirt didn't slip past her either. She knew how to deal with this guy and how to work him, though, even if doing that made her sick to her stomach. Juice gritted his teeth together as he saw how Skeeter was looking at her as well. He didn't like it any better than Jax did, but unlike Jax, he couldn't step in without raising eyebrows. "Two dead ones? That's-that's crazy shit, man." Skeeter laughed out nervously as he looked around the group of men before his eyes settled back down at Savannah. His eyes flickered down her frame again and his body tingled with a weird sensation that would have made her skin crawl if she knew.

Savannah looked back at her brother and held out her hand. He didn't hesitate on handing her the envelope. She gave him a quick look, one to which he simply rolled his eyes at, before turning back to Skeeter. "Sure you took a beating at Golden Gate this weekend, didn't you Skeet?" she told him as she pressed the package of cash against his chest, a knowing smile playing on her lips now as she looked up at him. It was no news to her that Skeeter had a gambling problem, it wouldn't be the first time the club's paid off his dept to get him to do something for them.

Skeeter looked from her to the rest of the group with a panicked look. Not only did Savannah make him nervous, but the thought of gambling did as well. She couldn't tell which made him more nervous, though. "No, I stopped the ponies, man. I stopped it all. Gamblers anonymous three-three months now." he told them all as he panically looking between them. He seemed to be serious enough about it, though, which honestly surprised them all. None of them had expected for him to turn the money down.

Savannah looked back at her brother with a panicked look of her own. Obviously she wasn't doing the trick here, and neither was the money. What in god's name was she suppose to do now? He didn't know what to tell her, though. He was as stumped as she was. "You're kidding. You don't want the money?" Jax asked him. He looked between the other three men, knowing that they were screwed now if they couldn't get the bodies from him.

"Working a program, you know?" Skeeter said to them before turning to get back to work, only sparing Savannah one last look as he turned away from them.

"Jesus christ." Jax cursed under his breath as Chibs shot him a look.

"There's something you might be able to get for me." he said out to them, gaining all of their attention again.

"What's that?" Jax asked him.

Skeeter paused in what he was doing and looked down at Savannah again. Her skin literally felt like crawling away from her when she saw the lustful look that he was giving her. "Savannah. Just one night." he told them. It was no secret that Skeeter liked her, that was the only reason she was even here, but there was point to her involvement with this. This was where the line stopped, and he was dangerously standing on the edge of crossing it now.

Skeeter reached out to touch her when no one said anything at first, but she flinched and backed away. He took a step closer to her, but Jax stepped in front of him, giving him a warning look to back off. "Not going to happen. My sister's off limits." he told him seriously as he stood tall and unmoving in front of his sister. Jax wasn't the only one to tense up, ready to kill this guy if he took another step. Juice had been a second away from doing the same as Jax, but Savannah was quick to send him a warning look. Jax could handle this, they couldn't risk the suspicion it would raise if he moved. "Name someone else." Jax told him, as if it was as easy as that.

Jax sent her a look behind him, motioning for her to wait outside for them. She didn't hesitate on staying where she was. She was all too happy to leave. Skeeter held out another minute before sighing, knowing that he wasn't going to get his first pick on who he wanted. It was worth a shot, though. "Emily Dunkin." was the last thing she heard as she left through the doors. She actually felt bad for who ever that poor girl was, but then realized that she was more relieved that it wasn't her. Since they were her ride home, she couldn't really just leave more than going outside.

She rubbed her arms coldly as a fall breeze hit her. So maybe just wearing her halter top wasn't the best of ideas? She jumped when she felt something be placed on her shoulders from behind. She looked down to see that it was a cut, still not the warmest, but warmer than she was before. She lifted her head up to see that it was Half Sack standing behind her, giving her a small shy smile. "Thanks, Half Sack," she paused, knowing that she was about to knock him down a little. "but, um, you keep it. It's warm, but not where I need it to be." she told him, giving him a guilty look, before shrugging off the cut and holding it back out to him.

He tried not to look put out by the return, but she could see right through him. She didn't mean to hurt his feelings, especially since he was only trying to do something nice for her. She opened her mouth to apologize, but she stopped herself when she saw Juice and Chibs coming out, Jax following out a few seconds later. Half Sack seemed to immediately grow nervous when they came out. Juice looked between them with an unhappy look, obviously not liking having found them out here together. His eyes softened when they flickered over her, though. "Hold this, prospect." he said over to him as he shrugged off his own cut and passed it to him. He then pulled his sweatshirt off over his head and tossed it to her. "You're going to freeze if you don't cover up, Savvy." he told her as he snatched back his cut from Half Sack more roughly than he needed to, and shrugged it back on over his black shirt.

It was obvious to her as she slipped the sweatshirt on over her head that Juice hadn't given her the sweatshirt because he was worried about her being cold. He was more jealous and being unknowingly territorial with her. She couldn't throw it back in his face this time, though, mostly because that meant she couldn't wear the sweatshirt, and she was very cold. She was not about to give up the warmth just because he decided to be an idiot . . . again. "Thanks, Juice." she told him as she snuggled into the jacket. She looked between them and thought of a better way to knock Juice down a peg. "Hey, Chibs, can I ride back with you? Figure you could use some time away from Half Sack." she said over to the older Irish man, shooting a quick look over to Juice to see that he was surprised at her question.

Chibs looked between them, as if he knew a bit more than he did before they got her, but nodded his head regardless. He motioned for her to hurry along if she really wanted to come with him instead of Juice, who she usually always willingly road with. With one last look back at the boy who was looking at her with a shocked expression before skipping over to Chibs and taking his extended arm. Jax looked between them with a confused expression before shaking head, figuring that it would better not knowing, and following after them. "Come on, you two. We gotta do one last night before we leave." he said back to the two, his eyes only connecting with Half Sack's, for a moment before he led the way off toward when Chibs had led Savannah.
