I pull up to the diner and see Gemma, Donna, and Opie waiting outside. I get out to greet them and Gemma hands me a bouquet of flowers.
"Here you go sweetheart. A sort of congratulations on opening." She says with a smile.
"Thanks Gem. You didn't need to bring anything but these are beautiful." I tell her admiring the flowers.
"You're welcome and I'll let Jax know you liked the flowers. " She smirks before walking into the diner. Donna and Opie exchange looks before following me in. The four of us work together taking chairs down and cleaning the tables. The diner opens in three hours but both Gemma and Opie have to head back to work. Thanking them for the help the two of us fall into an awkward silence before Donna speaks up.
"Sooo... Flowers huh? You've must have made quite an impression on Jax last night." Donna says whole bumping my shoulder. Rolling my eyes I put the flower vase by the register before walking to the kitchen and pulling out food ingredients.
" I didn't do a damn thing Winston!" I put everything on the counter and accusingly point my fingers at her.
"I'm just saying Gia! Jax Teller doesn't just buy flowers for any girl! Especially one he just met!" She says while mimicking my moves.
" He just wel-"
"Welcoming you my ass LOPEZ! Teller wants you!"
"Yeah well he ain't gonna have me cuz I don't do married men!"
" Married? Gia, Jax is getting a divorce! He and Wendy never really fit you know?" She tells me while mimicking a puzzle with her hands.
"But his ring?"
"I don't know maybe he forgot? I mean they were only married for what a year? Married? NO. Soon to be father? Yes."
"Father?!"
"Yeah she's pregnant but from what Ope, tells me that's the only reason why they talk. Jax is totally over her. Just wasn't fully committed you know." She says and we both fall into comfortable work pace prepping all the foods. Donna nudges me and says,
"You know I've never seen Jax take an interest in anyone but Tara, and that says a lot because she was his first love. ONLY LOVE!"
"What happened?"
"She couldn't handle small town life I guess. Tried to get him to leave but the club is his blood. SAMCRO started with the Tellers and its gonna end with the Tellers. Women coming into the club are told one thing "You love the man, You love the club." Donna wipes her hands on her apron before walking away.
