OK HERE'S THE DEAL. I WAS GOING TO DO THIS WHOLE BIG THING ABOUT HOW SHE WASN'T REALLY DEAD, BUT I DECIDED AGAINST THAT. SO I PULLED THE LAST CHAPTER AND THIS IS THE ONE I SHOULD HAVE POSTED ALL ALONG. ENJOY.

THIS CHAPTER WILL MAINLY FOCUS ON IMA AND HER CHOICES.

As Ima walked in her door, she threw her purse on the couch in anger. "That picture should have worked." She fumed. Ima was now having doubts.

Maybe the best thing to do was move on from Jax. Now that her plan failed, Jax and Jade were going to be on high alert. Maybe the best thing to do was to step back and get some distance. If she was really honest with herself, She knew that she really didn't have a shot with Jax after jade turned 18.

Maybe she should take the job offer and move to New York. Maybe it would be for the best, because lately she wasn't even recognizing herself in the mirror.

She was letting a guy get the best of her. Something she swore she would never do. Right then and there, Ima knew what she had to do.

She had to put some distance between her and California. Before she did something she would never be able to take back.

FRIDAY NIGHT AT THE CLUBHOUSE

Ima was all packed and ready to go. Most of her things had been shipped already. All she had for the plane ride was one bag of her stuff. As she walked into the clubhouse, she looked around for Jax and Jade. Before she left she wanted to tell them how sorry she was. She knew there was no chance for forgiveness but she felt for her to fully move on, she had to explain her actions, even though she knew it wouldn't make a difference to them.

TIME SKIP

As Ima boarded her plan, she felt the weight of the world lift from her shoulders. She finally felt like herself. She was leaving her past behind her and looking forward to a fresh start. For the first time in a long time, Ima was actually looking forward to her future, not back at her past.

She finally felt at peace with herself. Something that she had never felt before. She was no longer a porn actress. She had been hired to be a director.

For the first time in a long time, she was in charge of her own career, and that was worth more then anything Jax could ever give her. It was time to find out who Ima was without a man. Ima was thrilled to be leaving her past behind her. Her future looked bright.

Who knew. Maybe the man of her dreams would be found in New York. After she worked on herself.
