The Return

Daddy?

Jax leaned against the doorway as he watched Elena apply her makeup. It always baffled him as to why she wore the stuff, she really didn't need to she was beautiful as she was.

"Stop watching me you're putting me off." Elena told him as she applied black eye liner to the edge of her eyelids.

"Sorry."

He replied as he shifted his body from the doorway, and walked further into the bathroom. He wrapped his arms around her small waist, pulling her body back against his, as his lips found their way to the back of her neck.

"You know that doesn't exactly help either." She laughed as her head tilted to the side giving him more access.

"Yeah.." Kiss "But it's.." Kiss "More fun." He stated in between kisses.

"Can't argue with that."

She turned herself around in his arms so that she was now facing him. Standing in front of him she stood on her tip toes and pressed her lips tenderly onto his.

"But." She spoke as she pulled away.

"No butts." Jax caught her lips again. But Elena pulled away again.

"I have work Jax."

"Quit." He attacked her neck with kisses.

"Hmmm...god as much as I would love to I can't just quit."

"You sure?"

"Yeap." Jax finally pulled himself away from her.

"Fine." He took up his former position of leaning in the doorway, watching her.

"So what are you going to do with the rest of your day?" Elena questioned as she applied her blush. She saw Jax fidget uncomfortably.

"Your going to see Rachel aren't you."

"Yeah, I have to Ellie."

"I know, I just feel so guilty."

"Don't. We were over a long time ago."

Elena finished her makeup and walked over to him, she ran her hand over his hair before letting her hand rest on his cheek.

"Come pick me up after work, okay."

"That's if I make it out alive." He joked before he kissed her once again. He was finding it very hard not to kiss her all the time.

"Now that's what I'm talking about, lil sis."

"You think."

"Hell yeah, if Jax doesn't beg you to come back to him then your better off without him."

Rachel was wearing a dark denim mini skirt, a low cut fitted white tank top, a killer pair of red heels that matched the colour of her hair.

"I don't know Kel."

"Well to late babe. He's just pulled up." Kelly looked out of the kitchen window where she had hear a low rumble of a Harley.

Jax walked into the house only to be met by Kelly in the hallway. He was shocked to see her, and hoped that it was a quick visit because where that girl was concerned there was always trouble.

"Kelly?"

"Jax."

"What are..."

"What am I doing here? You cheated on my sister, remember."

"Kel it's non..."

"Don't worry your Mom has already given me the 'I don't want any trouble speech' so you can save your breath. Rach is in the kitchen." Kelly headed out of the door.

Jax walked in the kitchen where Rachel was leaning against the sink waiting for him. He took in her appearance and he was surprised, she looked good very good and if he was honest he hadn't expected that.

"Hey." Rachel spoke nervously.

"Hey." Jax walked over to the opposite counter and leaned against it as they fell into an awkward silence.

"I'm sorry.."
"I need to..."

They spoke in unison, they smiled at one another.

"I'm really sorry Rach."

"For what cheating on me or getting caught?"

"Both."

"I didn't deserve to find out the way I did. You should have told me."

"I know." Jax moved in front of her. "Your right you do deserve better."

"So your home, does that mean your back?" Rachel questioned nervously, for some reason she felt nervous having him that close to her.

"I'm not home."

"Oh."

"Come on Rach you know as well as I do that things haven't been working between us for a while."

"But I love you." She placed her hand against his chest. Jax took a deep breath before he placed his hand on top of hers.

"Rach come on..."

"I know things haven't been great but we can work through it. Were good for one another, you can't deny that. And I know you love me." She grabbed onto his hand harder.

"I do love you, probably a part me always will but I'm not in love with." Rachel drooped her hand from his. "Your a great girl..."

"But I'm not Elena."

"This has nothing to do with her."

"This has everything to do with her." Rachel shouted finally losing her temper.

"I'll come back another time and get my things. You can stay here until you get yourself sorted." Jax turned to leave the kitchen, he didn't want to get into an argument with her.

"Wait Jax you can't leave me, not now."

"Don't do this."

He turned around and saw tears forming in her eyes. He hated that once again he was making her cry. But he had to leave because if he stayed they would get into it and things would be said, things she wouldn't want to hear.

Rachel watched him walk away from her, she felt her heart breaking, she wasn't reading to lose him. Seeing him disappear, Rachel knew she had to do something, say something or she was going to lose him. Rachel ran to the hallway.

"I'M PREGNANT." Rachel watched as Jax froze. She waited for what felt like a lifetime but finally Jax turned to face her.

"Your what?"

"I'm pregnant."

####################

"So you and Jax are properly together now."

Meg questioned as she poured a glass of rose wine for her and Elena. The bar had been pretty quiet so Meg took advantage of Jake's absence and closed the bar 15 minutes early. Plus she really wanted to catch up on the gossip.

"Yeap."

"You lucky cow he's so frickin hot."

"Yeap."

"Okay can you please be a little less smug about it."

"So I'm happy sue me." Elena joked taking a sip of her wine.

"Talking of happy, how is that hot, tattooed biker brother of yours."

"Still of limits." Meg laughed.

"Any of them that aren't off limits."

"Trust me Meg their more hassle than their worth."

"Maybe, but the whole biker thing is sooooooo sexy. And I bet their all pretty good in the sack."

"Is that all you think about."

"Pretty much."

They finished off the bottle of wine when they were interrupted by a knock on the door. Elena jumped off her seat when she saw it was Jax. Having opened the door she threw her arms around him and slammed her lips against his.

"Hey." She spoke into his lips.

"Hey"

Jax pulled her away, Elena looked a little confused but when she heard Meg clearing her throat, Elena guessed that Jax didn't want to make her feel uncomfortable. She grabbed his hand and lead him into the bar.

"Hey Jax." Meg greeted him.

"Meg."

"Right well I think this is my cue to leave." Meg grabbed her bag and jacket from behind the bar.

"I'll see you tomorrow Meg."

"Yeah." Her and Elena kiss goodbye on the cheek. "Don't do anything I wouldn't do." Meg shouted as she left the bar.

"She's crazy." Elena shook her head as she cleared away their glasses.

"Yeah."

Elena looked back at Jax, he looked terrible and not just from the bruises he looked like he was tired and then she remembered that he had been to visit Rachel. She walked back to his side and wrapped her arm around his waist.

"Take it things didn't go to well with Rachel."

Jax grabbed her hand and removing her arm from around his waist. He cupped her cheek in his other hand. He could see confusion in her eyes he could tell she was nervous, nervous by his behaviour. Jax could physically kill himself for what he was about to do to her.

"What is it?" She asked in a shaky voice.

"I can't do this."

"Do what?"

"This...us.."

"What...I...What..." Elena placed her hand on top of his that was resting on her cheek. She felt him shaking.

"Me and Rachel are back together."

He blurted out. Elena was stunned into silence. She couldn't believe what she had just heard. She removed his hand from her face and backed away from him.

"Why...Why are you doing this? I don't understand." Elena fought back the tears she could feel forming in her eyes.

"I love her."

"You said you loved me."

"I thought there was no chance of us getting back together but..."

"But now she has were done. You bastard Happy was right about you. You were just using me."

"It's not like that."

"Then what is it like because this morning you were in my bed sleeping with me and now your telling me your in love with Rachel."

When Jax saw her tears starting to fall, he started to wavier. He couldn't do this to her, he hated that she was breaking in front of him. All he wanted to do was take her in his arms and tell her he was lying and she was the only one he wanted. But as Rachel words 'I'm pregnant.' rang through his head he remembered why he was doing this. But he still found himself advancing towards her.

Elena was looking at the floor, her mind doing over time 5 minutes ago she was telling Meg how happy she was, and how Jax was responsible for that. But now she was standing in front of the man she loved and he was breaking her heart. She only looked up when she felt his hand in her arm. She shrugged him off her.

"Don't...don't touch me..." She screamed.

"Elena..." He advanced towards her again, grabbing her arm.

"I said don't..." Tears were streaming down her face.

Elena tried to remove his hand but everytime she managed to remove his hand he just grabbed her again. Elena didn't want him anywhere near her, the thought of him touching made her want to be sick.

"Jax...Don't..." She screamed as she slapped him across the face.

"Elena..."

"GET OUT... GET OUT."

Jax knew that this was over, they were over. He walked toward the door,taking one last look at the girl he loved, the girl who's heart he had just broken before he left.

Elena watched him leave trying as hard as she could to keep herself composed, but when she heard him drive off she finally let herself break down. She couldn't believe he had done this to her, she felt like a fool, how had she been so wrong about him.
