Thank you guys for the continued favorites and likes on this story. This was supposed to be up Monday night but I've had a cold for a few days and didn't feel like editing. But today I felt better and decided to edit and upload this chapter. I might even upload another if I have time. If not it will definitely be up by the end of the weekend.
I do not own anything associated with Sons of Anarchy only my own ideas and OC's.
Both Stefanie and Jax, smiled at one another as they came out of the bathroom finally showered and eventually changed into a change of clothes. "As much as I would love to go back into that bedroom Angel, gotta go babe." Jax replied as Stefanie's cheeks flushed red as she buried her face into his chest.
"So I'll see you later?" She asked as Jax bent down and kissed her softly on her lips.
"I'll see you later." He replied as he grabbed her hand and gave it a squeeze before leaving and heading off toward the clubhouse.
Stefanie watched him go as she sighed in content as she looked to Abel, who poked his head out behind his door. "Hey baby boy." Stefanie said as she bent down and picked him up.
Abel smiled and laughed as he was placed on Stefanie's hip. "Ready to spend the day with grandma?" She asked as Abel smile at her.
"Grandma…yay!" Abel said as Stefanie smiled at the little boy's excitement.
"Did someone call my name?" Gemma questioned as she walked through the front door. "Hi little man." She said as she held out her arms.
Stefanie smirked as she handed Abel over to her as Gemma took her grandson into her awaiting arms.
"Thanks for watching the kids Gem, I know you probably got a lot going on." She said as Gemma swatted her hand.
"Don't worry about it. So what's Jax and the guys gotta do that requires you and Lyla?" She asked as Stefanie looked over as she picked up her bag and grabbed her keys.
"What'd you think?" She asked as Stefanie looked down at her phone to see that Lyla had texted her.
"Pussy?" Gemma asked as Stefanie looked up and chuckled.
"Yup…so I'm getting Ellie, Kenny and Pipper from Lyla, and then I'll head over to the clubhouse and get the kids." She said as Gemma shrugged.
"Take your time." She said as Stefanie watched Gemma look around the house.
"You won't find anything here Gemma. So don't go looking." She said as Gemma smirked as she adjusted Abel on her hip.
"Don't know what you're talking about Angel." She replied as Stefanie shook her head as he opened the door.
"Course you don't." She said as she shut the door behind her as she got to her car. Once there she got in and headed off to meet up with Lyla.
Stefanie pulled up to the lot as Lyla got out of her car and waved. After grabbing her stuff from the front seat Stefanie smiled as the kids filed out of the car. "Hey kids." She said as Ellie ran up to her and gave her a hug.
"Hey sweetie." She said as she gave the young girl a hug.
"Hey boys." She said as the two boys hung back by Lyla's car.
Stefanie straightened up as she moved her sunglasses from her face to the top of her head.
"Guys here?" She asked as Lyla wrapped her arm around Piper and nodded her head.
"Yup they're inside." She said as Stefanie nodded her head as put a smiled on her face.
"Alright kids, I want you guys to wait in my car okay. Lock the doors okay. Ellie you can sit up front sweetie." She said as Ellie smiled as she made her way to the front of the car. The boys followed her as they shook their heads. "And Ellie keep these two in check okay?" She said to Ellie who smiled at her..
"Okay Auntie Stef." She remarked to Stefanie who gave her a quick wink before she turned back to Lyla as they got ready for business.
Both Stefanie and Lyla walked into the air conditioned lot as Jax, Bobby, Tig, Chibs, and Opie turned around as the two girls walked toward them.
"Hey guys." Stefanie said as the boys minus Opie, who had his eyes trained on Lyla looked over at her.
"Hey Stef." Tig replied as he bent down and gave her a quick hug. Both Chibs and Bobby did the same as Jax stayed behind as he watched over his wife a smile on his lips. Stefanie kept her eyes trained on him as she gave him a seductive wink.
"Alright, let's talk in private." Jax replied back to his business mode. Lyla nodded her head as everyone followed her back to her dressing room.
Once in the room Jax got straight to the point. "Lyla, we need a favor." Jax replied back to his business mode.
Lyla stood next to Stefanie as she chewed on her lip nervously.
"What'd you guys need?" She asked as Stefanie looked over at Opie as he tried to peer around Lyla who stood in front of her vanity table.
"Where's Caruso?" Jax asked as Lyla shrugged her shoulders.
"I don't know he's not in the porn business anymore. I think he's dealing sex toys now but I'm not sure. You guys could talk to my boss he might know. He's waiting onset for me." She said as Stefanie watched the frustration of finding Caruso play on Jax's face.
"Sounds good. Let's go." He said as the group filed out of the room as Opie stayed behind.
Jax walked beside Stefanie as his hand rested on her lower back. "Stay here babe." He said as Jax walked over with Lyla to see her boss, who was standing on set.
Stefanie watched Jax and Lyla talk with her boss as Opie walked up to her upset. "She mention this?" Opie questioned as he startled Stefanie, who turned toward Opie and eyed the birth control in his hand.
"What are you doing Ope. Put that away." She said as Opie's angry eyes remained on Jax's old lady.
"She doesn't want kids does she Stef?" He asked again as Stefanie closed her eyes momentarily as she looked back at Opie.
"Opie I've known you a long time. I love you. But you can't force her to do something she might not want right now. You two both need to sit down and talk this out before it gets ugly and it affects the club." She said as Opie shook his head.
"Thanks for the help Stef. I thought we were friends. You know, not all of us can have the perfect life like you and Jax. Can we Stef?" He asked as Stefanie looked back at him angrily.
"You son of a bitch. We are friends. Ope!" She screamed after him as Jax came up behind her as he saw the confrontation between his best friend and his wife.
"What the fuck was that about?" He asked as Stefanie watched Opie and Lyla talk a ways away from them.
"Nothing. Do you need me still? I got kids waiting for me in the car." She said as Jax shook his head.
"No it's all set. I'll be home late." He said as Stefanie nodded her head.
"Okay I'm heading back to TM." She said as she began to walk away from him. "Be safe. I love you." She called after him as he watched her exit the lot.
Stefanie pulled up to TM as she put the car in park and got out of her car. "Alright kids, go play. Your dad will be here to get you soon." She said as the kids ran over to the playground where Abel was playing with some of the prospect. She smiled as she walked over and nearly bumped into Clay who angrily continued to walk away.
"Watch out, Angel." He replied as he adjusted his sunglasses and walked over to his bike.
"Sorry Clay." She screamed as she scoffed and turned around and walked into the office as Gemma looked up with Ember bouncing on her lap.
"Is Clay pissed off at me or something?" She asked as Gemma shrugged her shoulders.
"Don't worry about it. How'd it go in porn land?" She asked as Stefanie picked up her daughter and sat down on the chair across from Gemma.
"It didn't. Jax has taken care of though." She said as Gemma nodded her head.
"I guess that's good." She said as Stefanie shook her head.
"I guess." She said as she watched Gemma get up and grab her stuff.
"Gotta go. Going to see Wayne. You gonna be alright here?" She asked as Stefanie nodded her head.
"Great…um question. Have you seen Juice? The dipshit hasn't been in all day and Clay was wondering." She said as Ember began to fuss in Stefanie's arms. She moved her daughter closer to her as Stefanie shrugged and shook her head.
"Why would've I'd seen Juice." She asked as Gemma shrugged.
"I don't know been a little "jumpy" lately more than usual. You see him tell him there is a pile of hacking stuff the club needs him to do." She said as Stefanie looked down at her phone.
"Got it. Later." She said as Gemma left and Stefanie placed Ember back in her carrier.
"Alright little girl. Let's see if mommy can get this work done." She said as she began to work on some of the paperwork that was scattered across the desk.
Night had fallen on the office as Stefanie looked up to see Abel asleep on the couch in the office and Ember was asleep in her carrier. "Where are you Ope?" She asked herself as she looked into the garage to see where Ellie, Pipper, and Kenny sat.
Stefanie got up from her chair as she walked into the garage. "Alright…um guys I'm going to call grandpa. Your dad had to work late." She said as the kids nodded their heads sadly as Stefanie walked back into the office and dialed Piney's number.
"I'm sorry Piney I didn't know who else to call." She said as Piney nodded his head as he looked into the garage.
"Where the hell is my son?" He asked as Stefanie shrugged her shoulders.
"I don't know. Opie was supposed to be here and take the kids but he didn't show. And I've got two kids that need to get home. Lyla was working late so Ope said he would come get them and he didn't." She said as Piney nodded his head as he walked into the garage.
Stefanie walked back into the office as she picked a sleeping Abel up. "Come on sweetie." She said as Abel stirred slightly and kept on sleeping. She then bent down and picked up Ember who was asleep in her carrier.
"Thank you Auntie Stef, for watching us." Ellie said as she walked into the office. Stefanie smiled at the little girl.
"You're welcome Ellie, I'll see you later okay." She said as Ellie nodded her head and headed off toward Piney's truck.
Piney smiled as he looked at Stefanie. "Thank you Angel. Need any help?" He asked as Stefanie shook her head.
"No. I'm all set. Night." She said as she left the office and headed over to her car. After getting the kids strapped in she got into the car and took off toward her house.
Stefanie had just gotten into the house and got Abel to bed when Jax came in and spotted his daughter asleep in her carrier on the table. "Stef?" He asked as Stefanie came out of Abel's bedroom.
"Shh…I just got Abel to go back to sleep." She said as she ran her hands over her face a she looked at the clock. "Is it that late already?" She said as Jax walked over to her and wrapped his arms around her.
"How late were you at TM?" He asked as Stefanie shrugged as she walked out of his embrace and over to her daughter.
She carefully picked her up as she walked into her nursery. "I was waiting for Opie…he didn't show to pick up the kids. Had to call Piney to come get them." She said as Jax leaned against the door frame his hands in his jean pockets.
"Sorry babe." He said as Stefanie changed Ember and got her ready for bed. "What'd you mean Ope didn't show up?" He asked as Stefanie placed Ember in her crib and the two left the nursery silently.
"He didn't show. I don't know where he was but the kids were there all night." She said as Jax shook his head.
"I'll talk to him tomorrow. You tired?" He asked as Stefanie nodded her head and she leaned her forehead against his chest.
"You have no idea." She said as Jax smiled.
"Then let's go get you bed." He said as Stefanie nodded her head as the two walked into their bedroom.
