Previously:
Well as they arrived at the garage/clubhouse there were a few extra people in the lot and waited for Jax and the others to introduce themselves and the connection to the club. Jake put his daughter in the wheelchair and wheeled her towards the clubhouse and he could see that she went for Chibs hand and held on tightly. She was nervous about what she would find inside right now considering only a few hours ago, she had taken pictures of the club members to put up on the wall and some group shots. When they arrive in side the clubhouse everyone begins to cheer and sing welcome home to Kayleigh and Chibs and they both smiled when they saw their family having a party.
Everyone is celebrating Kayleigh's return to the clubhouse and glad that Chibs is ok as well. Tara and Maria go over to Kayleigh and tell her that Andrea was in the kitchen staying out of everyone's way. Kayleigh tells Tara and Maria thanks for letting her know and see's Donna with Opie and smiles. "Donna, I believe that you organized the house for my aunts, thank you and you and your family are more than welcome to come visit anytime", said Kayleigh. Kayleigh then looked around and noticed that Brianna, her father, sister and cousin were the only family in the main room. She remembered that Tara and Maria mentioned that her Aunt Andrea was in the kitchen hiding from everyone. Kayleigh looked to Chibs with an unspoken question in her eyes and without saying anything Chibs brought her to the kitchen where they could see Andrea in a comer with a knife in her hand.
Jake saw his sister disappear into the kitchen before Kayleigh and the others arrived inside the clubhouse. Jake couldn't slip away from the family but noticed Kayleigh and Chibs heading towards the kitchen. But turned to see Jax look a bit worried and knew that Andrea was in trouble but before he could move Jax looked at him with understanding in his eyes telling him that Kayleigh will talk her down and Jake relaxed a bit. Upon entering the kitchen Chibs noticed that Kayleigh was staring at a corner of the kitchen looking at her aunt who had a knife in her hand, he was about to move towards her but Kayleigh stopped him with her hand. "Aunt Andrea it's me Kayleigh and Chibs would you please look at me I'm safe and well", said Kayleigh and Andrea looked at both and then at her hand and threw the knife on the ground and away from her she got up and walked to her niece and knelt in front of her and cried. "Kayleigh, I have hurt nearly everyone I care for and love I should not be alive", said Andrea.
Both Chibs and Kayleigh were surprised by what Andrea said and waited for her to calm down and explain in more detail. "A friend of mine introduced Maria to her ex-boyfriend and then informed me what happened to her over the phone before you guys came inside and found me with a knife in my hand ready to kill myself", said Andrea and just held Kayleigh for a long time before her eyes closed and before either Kayleigh or Chibs could say anything. Kayleigh looked at her aunt with concern and then to Chibs who had been with them the whole time. Meanwhile in the main room everyone was wondering what was taking them so long in coming back out to the main room when they heard Kayleigh shout for Tara and she sprang into action. Maria had a feeling that Andrea had contacted her so called friend and knew that she had been told the truth of what happened to her and that this person could hurt her in a way that she may never survive. Jake and Jax saw Maria go completely pale when she heard he friend call for Tara and wanted to know what was wrong. "Maria, what is wrong your as pale as a ghost", said Jax and Jake together. Maria looked at both men with sadness in her eyes and said "Andrea may never wake up from what has happened to her I am so sorry for causing all this trouble Jake I never wanted to have anyone else get hurt because of me it's best if I leave this place today and do it under the cover of darkness so that no-one knows I've left".
Both men were surprised at what was been said but understood that this is what she needs and they both agreed to let her leave under strict instructions that she send encrypted e-mails to both Jake and Kayleigh to let them know that she is safe. Tara went into the kitchen and saw Kayleigh and Chibs holding Andrea and trying to get her to say something and stop the bleeding near her stomach. "Chibs lay her down gently so I can work on trying to stop the bleeding, I'll need your help and Kayleigh I need you to wait in the main room and ask Brianna to help us ok, Jax and Jake will stay with you until we have this sorted ok", said Tara and watched Kayleigh leave the kitchen with a broken heart and hurt in her eyes. As soon as Kayleigh came out of the kitchen Brianna knew what she had to do and what she had to bring into the kitchen to help Tara and Chibs with Andrea and got to work and went straight to the Kitchen with the supplies they needed. Kayleigh didn't have to say anything to Brianna because she knew the minute she saw her and got to work.
Jake saw his daughter and the reaction to Andrea's injury and knew that she was starting to blame herself for some of what's happened. The minute Jax saw his cousin he went straight to her and kneeled in front of her and saw how upset she really was by everything that's happened so far and he lifted her from the chair and brought her to the couch and sat her in his lap and told her to let go because it would be easier to come to terms with everything. Kayleigh just sat in her cousin's lap and cried her eyes out. Jake was worried about both his sister and his daughter and the guys looked on with questions in their eyes about what is happening.
Once Kayleigh was all cried out she fell asleep in Jax's arms and he noticed that her breathing had evened out so quietly and gently as possible Jax put his cousin on the couch to sleep until the others came out of the kitchen. Jax saw Jake and the others waiting for the others to come out of the kitchen and saw the food was just sitting there waiting to be ate. "Maria, will you please give me something to eat while I wait for Tara to come back, lets try to keep the noise down as Kayleigh is trying to sleep", said Jax. Jake and everyone else followed Jax's lead and got some food. Brianna came out of the kitchen and went straight to Jax and Jake "Jax, Jake is there a room here that we can put Andrea in because I do not think that she should stay at the house with me and Kayleigh", said Brianna. Both men realise that Andrea may not be able to deal with her demons while staying with Brianna and Kayleigh.
Jax called Opie over and asked if it was ok for his aunt to use his room in the club so that Andrea could rest, Opie gave his approvel and went into the kitchen to help move Andrea to the room while Donna went to tidy up the room a bit and found some old clothes that Andrea could use until her own cloths were brought to her.
Kayleigh starting stirring on the couch when the others came out of the kitchen and was headed towards Opie's old room in the back of the club when Chibbs heard Kayleigh scream and went straight to her to calm her down while Jake took his place with the others. Chibbs has a fair idea as to what Kayleigh was dreaming about so as softly and gently as possible he spoke to her and with a few moments Kayleigh had calmed down and then woke up to see Chibbs looking concerned and worried bout her and saw that Jax looked worried for the first time since she met him. She smiled gently at both men and asked about Andrea. Chibbs told her that Andrea would be staying at the clubhouse until she felt better but Kayleigh understood what Chibbs wasn't saying and asked to be taken home.
A/N: Thanks for the reviews. It's been a while since I updated but only just the laptop working again. I was hoping to give you more insight to Kayleigh's past but the situation with Andrea needed to be dealt with in this chapter. Next Chapter might have a bit more content in it.
