Chapter Twenty Four
"Hello, baby how are you?" Tracy was the first to greet her. She came up and hugged her tightly.
" Hello mother," she said her voice neither threatening or friendly, but neutral.
The next to come up to her was Monica.
"So you're Tracy's other child that she neglected." Edward said before Monica had the chance to open her mouth to say hi.
"Excuse me?" Brenna questioned her eyes fallen on the older man.
Jax could sense the tension in Brenna.
"You'll have to excuse father he sometimes doesn't know how to be nice." Alan said as he reached out to shake her hand." I'm Alan and this beautiful woman here is my wife Monica," he introduced himself and Monica.
"It's nice to meet you." Brenna said her voice sounding confident" Both of you."
"I'm Emily, but we've already met." Emily said sweetly as she stepped in front of Brenna
"Yes, but this is under different circumstances." Brenna said
"Me and Zander just have a lot of bad history," she started, but couldn't finish because Tracy's stern voice cut her off.
"What does Zander Smith have to do with any of this?" Tracy asked looking from Emily to her daughter then it hit her" Zander is the guy that you're now currently dating isn't he?" her voice was firm as she narrowed her eyes on her daughter.
"No, Zander is the guy that I've been dating for a year now and not to mention I'm in love with him," she corrected as she saw her mother's face turn a shade of red and she swore she saw stream come out of her ears.
"Oh great that hoodlum just can't stay out of this family. First Emily now you." Edward said in frustration.
"First of all you do not talk about Zander like that. When you mention his name in my present it will be with the up most respect. He is the man I love who was with me when I was pregnant with Jason' and Courtney's baby by the way Jason is Alan and Monica's son so therefore I was carrying your greatgran child. If it hadn't been for Zander I don't know what I would've done. He's shown me more love in this past year than I ever received from my own mother," she said firmly feeling protective.
"If I had known I would've been there with you." Tracy said.
"No, mother you wouldn't have because when I needed you the most you abandoned me which I'm told you do to most of your children. By the way where is Dillon I haven't seen him since he was a baby?" she asked looking around, but not seeing any one of the age that Dillon would be now.
"Um, I'm Dillon," A voice said from behind her.
She turned around to see this young man in place of where her brother should be.
"Dillon, My God you're not a baby anymore," she said as she went up to him and hugged him.
He returned her hug instinctively knowing who she was.
"I remember you from photos mom gave to me when I was younger. I still have this photo of you wearing a blue dress with white lace and long curly hair," he said" You must've been around five or six.
"Yeah, I remember that picture my other mother took that my first day of school," she said with fondness.
"It's great to see you." Dillon said as he stepped back from her.
"Yeah, you too, look Dill I'm gonna go, for now Zander's waiting for me. At least I'll be treated with love there," she looked passed Dillon to Edward and her mother then turned and walked out of the room.
"Brenna wait." Jax said as she walked to the door.
"I'm not going back in there I feel like I can't breath," she said as her forehead began to bead up with sweat and she felt light headed
"I wasn't going to ask you to go back in there, but I did promise to leave with you if you needed to go," he said as he began to get concerned about her well being. Her complexion was paler now and he could see the beads of sweat forming on her forehead.
"You don't have to I can call Zander he'll come get me," she said softly.
"Are you ok?" Jax asked as he went to her side just before she fainted" Brenna? Someone call 911!" he yelled as he gently allowed her head to rest on his arm." Brenna, come on wake up," he said firmly
"Jax what's wrong?" Emily was the first to be at his side." Oh my God, Sabrina." she knelt down at her side
"What's all the noise about?" Ned asked as he walked in and when he saw Sabrina on the ground he turned to call for Monica and Alan.
"What's wrong?" Monica was the first out followed by the rest of the family." Oh God," she muttered as she went to Sabrina's side." What happened?" she asked
"We were talking she said she felt like she couldn't breath she began to sweat and then she fainted." Jax explained
"I called 911 since no one else was obviously going to do so." Dillon informed them.
"Call them back tell them you don't need them I'm fine." Sabrina stated softly as she came too and started to sit up.
"You're going to the hospital." Jax said firmly
"Yes sir," she said in a teasing voice" Jax I'm fine really," she tried to reassure him.
"I still think you should be checked out."Monica said in a doctor voice and at the same time she was concerned.
"Fine, but not in an ambulance," she said
"I'll take you." Jax offered as he helped her to her feet.
During this whole time Emily observed the closeness between Jax and Sabrina. Jax was concerned as was everyone, but he seemed more like a worried boyfriend than friend. At this point Emily wondered if Sabrina was seeing Jax behind Zander's back? Zander didn't deserve to be betrayed by another person he loved. Jax left to take Sabrina to the hospital and Emily went to the phone to call Zander's cell phone. He at least needed to know where the woman he loved was.
"Hello, baby how are you?" Tracy was the first to greet her. She came up and hugged her tightly.
" Hello mother," she said her voice neither threatening or friendly, but neutral.
The next to come up to her was Monica.
