AN: Picking up where we left off from Chapter 3.


(Continued)

Jax nodded his head slowly as he trained his blue eyes back on the brunette in front of him. "Yes. Walk with me, I'll explain everything." He turned, leading the brunette towards the door that lead to the stairs. "Grew up with her. We were together in high school, she left after she graduated. Wanted to get out of Charming, said it was small town cess pool."

"What's her problem? Why is she rummaging around Wendy's files?" Viv eyed the man carefully as she crossed her arms.

He shook his head. "I don't know. I have no idea how she even knows about Wendy. Believe me, babe, I don't even know why she's back. She hates Charming." He grabbed Vivian's arm, tugging on it to try to get her to him before he stopped when she didn't budge."Vivian. Babe? What is it?"

"She's fucking weird, Jax. I don't get good vibes from her and now this just confirms it. She's rummaging around in a patient's file that she doesn't even know and I don't like it." The brunette stared up at Jax as she backed away from the man. "I don't like it. She's not going to just fuck with random shit and she's ironically always around when you come up to see me."

Jax stepped closer to Vivian and wrapped his arms around the brunette, resting his head against her. "I know, I know you don't like this. What do you want me to do? You want me to talk to her? Tell me what you want me to do, babe." He kissed her head.

"I don't know, Jax, I have no idea. I don't care that you have a past with her, I'm more concerned with the fact that she's so curious with Wendy and Wendy's files. I just don't feel comfortable with that." The brunette mumbled as she slowly wrapped her arms around his waist. "Does she have some unresolved issues with you or something? I told I'd take disciplinary actions if she continued to rummage around in files that aren't any of her concern."

The man nodded his head as he pulled back a little and leaned down to kiss the brunette's lips, his large hands holding her face. "I don't have any answers, babe, I'm sorry. I'll figure this shit out for you though. In the meantime, why don't you come home? I'll make you some grilled cheese sandwiches and you can take a nap." He smiled as he kissed her lips again.

"I can't. I need to speak with one of my patients, she's being induced next week and we have to go over her options." She rubbed his sides. "Give me an hour, the appointment is in about fifteen minutes. Go play that tetris game on my laptop in my office unless you have other shit to do."

Jax chuckled as he nodded slowly. "Go play tetris? Oh you're just going to throw me away like it's nothing huh?" He snaked his arms around her waist again as he pulled her flush against him. "How about I just run away with you?"

"Not now, I don't five minutes to spare." She laughed as she felt Jax's lips on her neck before he bit her neck. "Ah! Babe, no! No marks. You know I can't have marks." She moved a hand to his long hair and tugged on it. "Jackson, no more. You're gonna get me in trouble."

He shook his head slowly, pulling back as he poked out his lip. "I think it's completely ok for you to fuck me here and now." He kept his blue eyes on the brunette as he moved his hands to her ass.

"Well everyone is entitled to their own opinion, baby, but not at all opinions matter. Unfortunately for you, your opinion is included in the irrelevant folder." Vivian smirked as she rubbed his bottom lip with her thumb before she leaned upward and kissed his lips. "Get out of here, don't bring anymore of your weird exes around either. I don't like big groups."

Jax rolled his eyes. "I feel violated and betrayed right now. You're trying to attack me and I don't know how I feel about it." He smacked her ass soundly before he stepped away from her. "I'm going to the clubhouse, why don't you meet me there when you're finished up here?"

"I have to meet with my mom when I finish with my appointment. I'll call you when I'm done with her. She and my dad need to discuss something with me…" She shrugged as she moved toward the door and pushed it open. "I'll talk to you later, baby."

The man nodded his head as he followed her through the door, going the other direction. "I'll be there until ya call. Have a good appointment." He watched her smile back at him before she continued down the hall, towards her office. Jax continued in his direction, stopping when he was pulled into the chapel. "What the hell? Tara?"

"Hi. How have you been?" She smiled up at the man as she shoved her hands in her pockets.

Jax shook his head slowly. "I'm great, doing very well. How are you?"

"Good days and bad days. What are you doing here? I know you're not to get monthly check ups." She laughed a little.

Jax shook his head again. "You don't know me anymore, Tara. Look, I've gotta go. Nice seeing ya." He walked out of the chapel and left the hospital.


Later that day

Vivian Anderson pulled up to her parents house, her eyes on the short brunette pacing on the front porch and she sighed heavily. Her older sister, Isabel; mother, business owner and annoying troll when it came to Vivian and the way she lived her life. "Wonderful." Viv mumbled to herself as she parked her BMW and got out of it. "Isabel, hi."

Isabel Anderson looked up and smiled briefly before she moved off of the spacious porch and moved to Vivian, easily closing the space between them before pulling her younger sister into a hug. "I'm glad you're ok, hun. I'm surprised you showed up."

"What in the hell are you talking about, Isabel? I am always ok, I'm more than ok. Why wouldn't I show up?" The younger brunette pulled away and started to scowl at her sister.

Isabel ran a hand through her hair and she shrugged. "I know that! I'm just glad you're here, I didn't expect you to come. Doctors have busy schedules. Mom and dad, they want to have a family discussion in regards to Ryan."

"Jesus. I'm not dealing with these theatrics… Ryan is doing fine. I let him move in with me, he's attending school and he's gonna start a new job this weekend at the hospital." Viv rolled her eyes as she moved around her sister and toward the house, opening the front door and walking through the foyer to the family room. "What's this family meeting about?!"

David Anderson stood up, moving to his daughter as he furrowed his brow. "What are you upset for? We wanted to discuss what is going on with Ryan and school. Isabel was already here to drop Arianna off."

"Because you all always think that he's just off doing illegal things and behaving ridiculously. Ryan, tell them what we've been working." Vivian nodded her head slowly. "Go ahead."

Ryan nodded slowly as he looked at his parents. "I've been assisting in the hospital, my courses are doing clinicals now. When I'm not there, I'm bartending. It's good money, easy and quick." He shrugged his shoulders.

"Bartending? Ryan, no. I'm sure there's something you could be doing other than bartending." Leslie Anderson shook her head slowly. "Honey, where?"

Vivian rolled her eyes. "Oh my god, hypocrite. You're such a hypocrite, mom. It's ok for Isabel to not only bartend but own a damn bar…" She shook her head. "Let's go, Ryan. I'm not having you deal with this, I so deeply apologize that neither of you seem to approve of his choice of job to have while he gets through med school."


Teller Morrow

After leaving Vivian at the hospital earlier in the day, he was actually missing her. His mind briefly traveled back to the brief and unnecessary conversation he had with Tara Knowles and he rolled his eyes. He couldn't believe the way he had heard she was acting, grilling Vivian about Wendy and that was honestly ridiculous to him. How she even knew about Wendy… It was weird.

He shook his head, looking up as he saw the familiar BMW pull onto the lot, it was his woman. She was finally showing her face around his clubhouse and he thrilled. He didn't know when this day would come, if it ever did but there Viv was, parking her sedan and getting out of it before she slowly walked toward him as he stood up from the picnic table. He looked at the garage office to see Gemma standing by the door and he rolled his eyes before he focused on his girlfriend again. He knew she was mad, it was all in the way she walked.

"What's wrong?" He inquired as he grabbed her shoulders as she stopped in front of him. "What the hell happened?"

Vivian simply shook her head as she grabbed the phone of his shirt and pulled him closer to her before burying herself in his embrace. "Just say that you can leave, please." She tilted her head to look up at the man. "I just want to go home and have a few drinks while soaking in a bubble bath. Today has just been stupid."

"Jackson." Gemma called from behind Vivian, a glare on her face as she watched the couple. "I need your help, come here."

Jax looked up as his girlfriend looked back at Gemma. "The mother. I'll be right back, ok? Then we'll go home and I'll help you take on a bottle of Jack." He leaned down, kissing Viv's forehead. "I promise, babe." He pulled away and moved to his mother. "What do you need help with?"

"Understanding who that little tart is." Gemma huffed as she turned and walked back into the office. "Who is she and why is she all over you?"

The man rolled his eyes as he shook his head. "Vivian. Her name is Vivian, she's my girlfriend. Anything else you want to know, I think you could ask her, she's very capable of handling your questions herself." He sighed heavily. "Back the hell off, Ma. I'm not gonna have you harassing someone else that's important to me. Leave her alone if you can't be nice." He shook his head again as he walked out of the office and towards the white BMW where he saw Vivian standing against. "Let's go home, Viv."

"What's wrong? What happened to you?" She inquired as she pushed her hair over her shoulder. "Two bottles of Jack?"

He chuckled a little and nodded his head. "Maybe just one and a half. I'll see." He leaned down and kissed her lips as he opened the driver's door. "I'll be right behind ya."

"Let's settle on two. You'll finish most of it before I do." She kissed him again before slipping away to get in the sedan.


AN: Heyyyy, sorry for the late update. It's been hectic for me. But here's Chapter 4. Jax was honest with Viv, she seemed to take it all well. I introduced her parents, David and Leslie, plus her sister, Isabel.

Hope you guys all enjoyed the short chapter (:
