The next morning Jenna woke up on the couch cuddle to a pillow wearing Jax's shirt. Some habits were hard to break. wiping her eyes she searched for her phone finding it on the coffee table with a dozen of text and a dozen phone calls everyone checking up on her. She had turned her phone on silent cause she didn't want to deal with the world of chaos around her in her life in all aspects. She finished unpacking everything Opie helped her bring over till the wee hours in the morning. It was a night she wished she could drink but she was sober and had been for 5 years now. She wasn't gong to let Jax ruin that for her. Sitting up she rubbed her belly feeling her daughter moving around and the sudden urge to pee. Grabbing her phone she turned it off silent and read through the list of caller. She had no idea where to start. She even had a few drunk dials from Jax's phone of him and Tara fucking in their bed. It made her sick to her stomach to hear that even if he was drunk she didn't deserve her face rubbed in it. Looking at the time it was 10:30am She was a bit surprised her son had yet to text her. But she knew what happens when Gemma kept him. Nero and her wore him out and let him stay up late so he would sleep in so she could prepare his favorite breakfast before preparing for family dinner tonight. That was something else Jenna was dreading for sure she didn't want to see Jax not after those voice mails. But she had to be the good parent and co-parent to the best of her abilities.
Jenna looked at herself in the mirror and wash last nights make up off her face. Her eyes were puffy so she decided to go to the fridge and grab to cooling eye pads to refresh herself a bit. She put them on and felt her phone vibrate in her hand. It was her brother calling to check on her. She swipe up and put her phone on the counter to face time with him. "hey you're alive." He said playing with his beard. He was obviously out in his garage working on the bike. Her nephew Harry could be seen in the background working on his bicycle next to Opie's motorcycle. Jenna smiled and put her glasses on since she had yet to put on her contacts. "Yes I'm alive why wouldn't I be." "No ones heard from you and you are usually up before now." he said pointing to tool so Harry could fix his own bike. Jenna smiled and said "Usually i have an active 6 yr old running around too. but he's at Gemma's so I got to unpack unwind and sleep in." she said with a smile as she grabbed a juice box out of the fridge. Opie shook his head and asked "are you going to Sunday dinner tonight after everything?" "kinda have to..Do you know if he's going or not?" Jenna wondered how Jax was doing and if he even planned to go after she moved out yesterday. "i'm not sure he hasn't answered his phone yet. I'm about to check on him. I'll let you know how he is." He said playing with his beard a little. "thanks Op. I appreciate it." she said twirling her blonde hair around her finger as she tried to stop her mind from thinking about him. Opie smirked and said "you're my sister. he's my best friend its what i do." "I'll see you tonight give Lyla and the kids my love" She said hearing Lyla hollering for him in the background and hung up her phone. She grabbed a juice box and an apple and went out on to her balcony.
Her next call would be to Gemma to see what she was in charge of bringing for dinner tonight since she had time. But she just need a minute to take in her new surroundings and just breath. This was the first time in her life she had ever really be single and alone. She hated that she left Jax because her heart hurt with love for him but she couldn't take the pain anymore and never feeling like nothing more than a baby machine. Jenna laid her head down on the patio table and let her tears fall without a sound. She was use to the tears as of late and all over Jackson Teller. Her phone went off and it was Gemma's. Wiping her tears quickly and answered "hey i was just thinking about you." "were you now?" it was Jax on the other end of the phone. Jenna rolled her eyes and said "you wish i thought it was your mom. Why are you calling me from her phone?" "I stopped by to see our son and see what i needed to bring back from Lodi for dinner tonight." He said running his fingers through his hair "can I see you? where you staying at?" he was begging to know where she was. Jenna stood her ground and said "No and I will tell you when i'm ready." "I have a right to know where my children are staying and whom with." he said with a hushed growl in his voice. Jenna responded with "see no you don't. Unlike you i'm not shacking up with anyone and i will never tell you where not as long as she is in your life. she will not harm my children. She was the reason we almost never had Abel and you choose her over your son again, but not only your son a daughter we have yet to set eyes on. So lay in the bed you made cause I'm for real done. Give MY son my love and I will see him tonight." Jenna said hanging up refusing to let him win. She had some confidence about her after that conversation. She finished her juice box and banana and headed to her bathroom to shower and get ready for her day.
Though she didn't really wasn't sure what she was going to do till dinner. Usually she would be making family breakfast and the family of three would go on some adventure. Just at the thought of those memories made her eyes well up with tears but she refused to let him win. Part of her wondered what would make someone throw that many years away with someone but part of her knew why. Jenna rested her head on the glass wall of the shower and let the steamy water hit her back. Closing her eyes as she felt a painful kick from her daughter with in her womb. "hey you mom can only handle one of being emotional." Jenna said rubbing her belly sitting on the bench along the shower wall. The water hit her belly and she rubbed her belly. She just needed a moment to soak it in. But she had no time to be emotional cause she had two little lives depending on her. So she just banished what ever feeling she had and just decided to wash the feelings away. she stood under the shower head what felt like hours but was only ten minute. She noticed that she had several texts from Jax after she hung up and she blocked his number for the time being she didn't want to talk to him she wanted to talk to Tara and know why she would ruin a family. She needed answers and sometime the one to give you honest answers is your enemy. Jenna bit her lip as she wrapped a towel around herself as she thumbed through her phone. She found Tara's name in her contacts, she had saved it after seeing her messages to Jax. Jenna quickly typed away.
Jenna: Can we meet
Tara: Whose this?
Jenna: The womans whose family you wrecked I wanna talk
Tara: i have nothing to say to you crazy bitch.
Jenna: look im 7 month pregnant im in no shape to cause you harm. I just wanna talk you pick the spot.
Tara: fine...Saint Thomas in an hour thats when i get a break.
Tara's was was lit up a joint as she soaked in a bubble bath in the claw foot tub in the master bath of Jax and Jenna's home. She didn't expect to hear from her so soon. But she knew it was coming. The two had a similar conversation when the Jenna was pregnant with Abel. Tara wondered what this conversation would bring this time. She hit her joint and just soaked not letting anything bother her or rattle her. Once she finished her joint Tara got dressed in her scrubs since she did have a shift after she talked to the biker whore as she refereed to her. Tara did her make up and hair before grabbing her hospital bag and leaving in her dads old car. Jenna was already waiting looking like a blonde vixen in leather. Jenna was wearing a pair of tight jeans that hugged her firm ass a pair of heeled boots a tank top and a black leather mini jacket over it. Her blonde hair flowing she knew what she was hear to do and why. She already had a friend of hers in Chicago looking up anything on Tara. it would cost her a few pictures of her pregnant feet but it was worth it. Tara fixed her bangs in the car and walked out playing nice. "Jenna Winston what can i do for you today?" Tara said approaching her. Jenna removed her sunglasses and said "Don't be cute.I'm not in the mood for cute. I want to know for how long and has my son been around you." Jenna wasn't in the mood to play games she just wanted truth. Tara gulped and said "about 3 months and no Abel hasn't been with me." "Good and he never will be either. I don't care if you and Jax stay together but My children will never be left alone with you." Jenna said harshly because she didn't trust Tara
A few people passed the two girls and Tara looked down and said "How are you gonna keep him from his kids?" "I'm not you are. Like i said i don't care if you two fuck or run away or whatever you planned before i found out i was pregnant. I don't care. I love him and always will because he is the father of my kids. But I will never trust you alone with my kids . Jax will get his rights to his kids with out you are my only terms and no im not asking for your input cause you are nothing but a simple girl who takes what she wants n leaves when your not having anymore fun." Jenna said bluntly before standing up cause she see a few of the sons bikers ride by which meant Jax would be notified. Jenna spun around on her heels and said "oh and what ever you are holding over him I will find out cause your only back for trouble." Jenna swiftly turned around on her heel and walked away not letting Tara say a word. But as soon as Tara noticed she was in her car she murmured "bitch" "not a fan of the monarch in training..Not everyone is?" said a male voice. Tara jumped a little and turned to see Josh Kohn her exe from Chicago and her daughter biological father. Tara was never pregnant when she left Charming she said that to string Jax along hoping he would leave with her but Jenna had all the proof she was really pregnant and Jax stayed with her. When Tara went to Chicago she met Josh and the two had a fling till she ended up pregnant. But their relationship turned violent and brutal so her mother got custody of their daughter till Josh was able to provide children services that he was a a stable parent.
Tara sighed and rolled her eyes as he went to kiss her cheek. "it's your weekend. I brought Jackie here since it is summer vacation for her. I thought we might stay around here so you can be with her more." Tara looked aggravated till she saw her little girl with brown hair like hers and his blue eyes. She was just waking up from her nap and she was only a few months old. This definitely put a bump in her plan but she would figure it out. Tara just rolled her eyes at Josh and said "I have a shift in 10 minutes but I set up my dads old place. You guys can stay there." "Where are you staying?" He asked her. "with him the pregnant whore moved out when she caught him n i together she took the kids. So im trying to find what you and the other atf asked for." She said playing peekaboo with her two year old daughter. Josh said "the sooner you get it the sooner you can go back to your comfy life in Chicago with our daughter and i will leave you alone. I'll meet you at your dads ill have her fed and in bed so we can talk." "how do you know i'm not going to Sunday dinner with him?" She said looking at Josh "cause that pregnant blonde will be there and she will shoot you before you even get out the car and there goes my case cause she will plead insanity cause of her pregnant hormones and stress you cause her and her child. Because you have a history of that with her and I can't have that. if he asks tell him your working a double." Josh said being bluntly honest with her. Tara gulped and said "fine i get off at nine" she gave her little girl a kiss as Josh pushed the stroller away from her.
Tara was in it deep the only reason she went to Chicago was for witness protection cause she had been working with the feds since they were in high school cause her dad was in it deep with all types of charges that he would never over come. So she had been building their case for seven years and soon it would be time to pull her out again. Tara grabbed her bag and headed into the hospital watching over her shoulder making sure no one seen her. But there is always someone watching in Charming. Jax was already at his mother's house. He and Abel were outside playing in the pool. Gemma was inside prepping for dinner tonight. Nero watched past her and squeezed her but. "Hey watch it papi. You might lose a finger and i like when you use those." Gemma said with a smile licking her lips as she continued to chop up the veggies for the massive salad she makes. Nero smiled and said "I know you do mami" He notice Jax and Abel playing in the pool "what time he get here? He asked as he put the steaks in marinade to soak before he grilled them tonight. Gemma said "Half hour ago he promised Abel last night." "How is that gonna work when Abel finds out he's not going to his home home?" Nero asked Gemma stopped cutting and said "Not sure but i know its gonna break my sons heart which he needs right now and i hate to say that but he has taken advantage of that girls trust love he deserves to feel unsafe for a bit. I just hope one of them realize what game that little Knowles bitch is up to because i guarantee its no good it never is." Gemma said wrapping her arms around Nero just wanting to be held for a bit.
Before Jenna could get to Gemma's she had to change. She was getting to the point in her pregnancy she just wanted to be comfortable especially since she had to deal with Jax later. As she pulled out of the hospital parking lot she drove past Tara. She spotted the man with the Baby approaching Tara. Jenna raised her eye brown but she looked at the time it was noon and she had to get dressed and do her make up. She still liked to work Jax up even if they weren't together. Maybe it would get him to see how toxic Tara is and come home n be with his family. but she herself wasn't sure if she would be prepared for that in her heart she desired him loved him but other than their kids she could think of a real reason they belonged together. There was history and lost love there but after everything she herself wasn't sure she wanted to rebuild it. But she was going to make him want to and maybe something would grow from that. Hopefully it might work for her too and feel like they did when they were teenagers sneaking around and being kids. Jenna could feel the tears and wiped them away as she heard a bike pull up to her at the stop light. She knew Jax kept a tail on her, This was something she was used to when she first started shooting for Cara Cara and was attacked by the Nords when she was leaving the hairy dog. They all claimed they didn't know who she was when they did it. But it was obvious cause of the crow on the back of her neck. She got it before Tara before Jax and her made is official just because she had the balls to say that they would end up together at 16. Jenna lowered her glasses and seen her brother next to her. Jenna smiled when he asked "you okay?" Jenna nodded her head and said "Follow me." Opie nodded and got behind her once the light turned green.
Jenna was taking him to her apartment in the daylight. She knew he knew the way at night because he helped her move stuff and had been getting Ima things for her so Jenna didn't have to see Jax. Plus he was their go between he always had been when they were kids and well into their teen and adult years. Once they pulled into the garage Jenna didn't wanna get out of her car this pregnancy was making her even more exhausted then her emotions made her felt. She got the same way after Abel was born but she couldn't let her son see her sink in that way. Jenna had her own plan either way. She was twenty four years old and was about to have to babies. Without Jax she would be the hottest Milf in town and her interests would rise at Cara Cara. Opie pulled up next to her. While still sitting on his bike he opened her driver door knowing that she had already turned the car off. "You look miserable" He said getting off his bike and removing his helmet. Jenna rolled her eyes under her shades and said "No Shit thank you for the observation there buddy. I'm pregnant hormonal and feeling unattractive and I can't just let anyone in. because who father's my children." Opie just let her lean into him and he kissed her forehead "i'm sorry princess what can your big brother do for you?" he asked sarcastically. Jenna pushed him off and said "eww and nothing I have to get myself out of this funk I'm the only one that can. Well that and to get miss out my tummy so I can get my MILF Figure back." "EWWWW...EW...EW..EW.." Opie said playfully pushing her and the continued on to say "Thanks for that Image. Trust me I still have nightmares of when i caught you and Jax in that hotel in vegas and i see you two and all your filth." Opies shook a bit and got the image out of his head. Jenna giggled and said "well that was payback for when i caught you and Donna on the kitchen counter during Ellie's birthday."
"How do you think little harry came about" Opie said knowing that would get her to smile and shrugged his shoulders and wrapped his arm around her and kissed the hop of her head as she let out a giggle with a slight snort at the end. "There's that giggle." He said hearing her seem a little happy. Jenna just rolled her eyes and said "I don't wanna do this dinner Opie." "Then don't Gemma will give you and out." Opie said as they had to get on an elevator to go up a couple of floors. When they got on the elevator she hit her floor and then leaned on the back wall. "I'm sure Gemma would but I have to be there for Abel and prove he hasn't broken me at least not to his face." She said running her fingers through her hair feeling her daughter kicking at her belly. "How am I gonna do it Op? How am I gonna do this alone?" she said looking up at the ceiling of the elevator not wanting to cry. "what makes you say that?" he asked knowing she went to see Tara because he made sure the prospect Half sack who had a soft spot for Jenna came to him before Jax especially if he found out his two women met. "Why did you go see her?" He asked her. She went silent as the elevator stopped on her floor and headed to her apartment. Once they reached her door she kept quiet thinking on his question. Jenna opened the door and took a deep breath she felt a little safe and said "because I had to know." "know what" Opie asked as he closed the door behind him. "What she had on him?" Jenna said taking off her jacket and slowly headed down the hall stripping out of her clothes.
Opie walked outside looking at the view. He was an overprotective brother and needed to know she was safe. As he waited for Jenna to finish changing, he noticed a balcony a little to close to hers that could be crawled over instantly. Peering in he looked to see if it was vacant or occupied he could hear a familiar male voice on the phone but he couldn't pin point who till David Hale seen him peering in to see who lived near Jenna. David hung up his phone and walked out to his balcony and said "Not Planning a B&E are you Opie?" it was a cop joke but Opie didn't see it as funny "nah just wanted to make sure it wasn't a creep next to my sister. i just have to worry about a cop." Opie said looking back into Jenna's apartment to see if she was coming back yet. David said "i'm better company than she's had." That was a personal dig at Jax and it upset Opie. But he knew this whole town knew by now about their break up by now it only been a couple days. Opie wanted to swing but he heard Jenna's heels on the wood floor and David said "you got nothing to worry about I'm looking out for her too." Opie mumbled as David went back into his apartment "that's what i'm afraid of" Jenna was peering around the corner calling his name. He smiled and headed back in locking her balcony doors. "so whats she got on Jax?" he asked his sister. "not sure..but I seen some guy with a kid could not be more than a few months old after I left." She was pulling her blonde hair into a ponytail. She had changed into a black flowy sundress that showed off her bump. Opie played with his beard and would have to get one of their people to look into her past in Chicago.
"what time are you heading to Gemma's?" Jenna asked looking around her apartment knowing she still had to pick up the deserts from the bakery. "I'm about to go get Lyla and the kids now. They are excited to get into the new pool at Gemma's. Plus Jax is there now. So it gives you time to do what you need to." Opie said with a smile giving his sister a forehead as he hugged her. "Thank you Opie." She said letting wrapping her arms around him. "Anything for you kiddo. How are you doing other wise?" he asked holding her for a moment. Jenna let go and turned away. She usually tend to get very nervous when it came to her talking about her feelings. She always distracted herself with things that needed to be done that could wait. biting her lip she said "umm do want the list or just the cliff notes version." "depends." he said with a smirk. She turned back and faced him and asked "On what?" "What will make you feel better?" He said stopping her in her tracks before she put it off more. "Honestly Op.I don't know what will make me feel better right now. Right now i feel like a broken woman about to be raising two kids alone because her fiancee couldn't keep it in his pants. So that makes me feel vert unattractive like there is something wrong with me." She said with a sigh looking down at the floor like she always did because she was afraid to look anyone in the eyes when she felt like she was about to cry. Jenna wasn't raised to be the girlie girl and cry about everything. She was raised to be strong and to save the tears for when she was alone. Opie lifted her chin he hated to see his sister in this state but this was part or hers and Jax's cycle. he said "Don't ever let no man break you no matter the tie. You were raised tougher than that. Besides he will be tired of normal in a month and be back to you. He always does and if he doesn't ill slash his bike tires." Opie of course was kidding but it made her smile. Jenna wiped her eyes before it smeared her make up and laughed a little bit. "Thanks for that." As she hugged her brother not wanting to let go. Opie felt his phone buzz and knew it must have been Lyla. "Daddy Duty calls. I'll see you at Gemma's later. Take your time i'll let Gemma know you'll be late." Opie said letting go and look at his phone. The kids were pestering Lyla cause they wanted to go swimming since it was a hot California day.
Jenna smiled and said "thanks..I shouldn't be that late. Just trying to find motivation to go." Opie smiled and kissed her forehead as he shook his head. "ill see you later." He said leaving her in her apartment alone. Opie took the elevator to the parking garage he was steady Texting Lyla
Lyla: When Are you coming home?
Opie: Soon.. Seen Jenna at St Thomas with Tara
Lyla: Hows she doing after that?
Opie: She's hurting and no one can blame her. If she does something dumb again i will never forgice jax.
Lyla: if you think shes that bad tell her come stay here
Opie: you know she won't do that she know we got all the kids and doesn't wanna be a pain.
Lyla: But it wont be safe for her to be alone. she need some one to watch her. Ima's always at the studio or the club house.
Opie: David Hale live in the building right next to her their balconys pretty much connect.
Lyla: Interesting...
Opie: don't start. Bout to get in the truck will take me 15 mins to get there
Lyla: Okay I love you.
As Opie was getting into the truck Jenna had taken off her heels to relax a bit. her nerves were worked up and she could feel herself get the shakes. Feelings she hadn't felt since she found out she was pregnant with Abel. She decided to plug her phone in and turn on a little music . The first song to come on was "Not The Only One" By Sam Smith. This just made Jenna smirk very evily and twisted. She knew this was irony in it's purest form. Since she knew now she wasn't the only woman Jax Teller had been shacking up with. Jenna looked at the time and she had to decorate the cupcakes and the cake. Though she wasn't suzzie home maker Jenna loved to bake. It was something that put her in a zen mood when she couldn't have her usual wine and joint. As Jenna was Decorating the cake. Opie had just gotten home. The Kids all rushed him and got into the SUV. He just looked stunned cause he didn't even have time to even get out of the truck. Lyla was shooing everyone to the car since she had it already packed up and ready to go. Opie climbed out of his truck and raised his son glasses. "Well hello to you kids too." He said shaking his head and giving his wife a peak on the lips. "were they that crazy." He asked. Lyla quickly responded "yes they have been driving me up a wall about going swimming and Ellie was getting into her miss dicatude if you didn't hurry up. So i told them the second they heard the truck to get in the suv and we were going." Opie just laughed wrapping his arm around her giving her a passionate kiss as all the kids in unison said "EWWWW" They were always disgusted when their parents made out. Opie and Lyla smiled and laughed and let go of each other. As lyla walke away Opie smacked on her firm bottom and said "Head'em on up, move'em on out" Lyla let out a giggle and got into the SUV. Little did they know Tara's Ex and ATF agent Josh Kohn was in an car close enough to capture pictures of the family
Josh had been following Opie and a few other of the Sons member to get to jax and Jenna. He still had yet to find out where Jenna had moved to. But he knew he would create results for Tara and the ATF case against the Sons. Josh waited for them to get a few blocks ahead and he followed them. As he was tailing them he looking in his review mirror to the car seat behind him. He smiled watch his daughter chewing on a teething ring just oblivious and innocent to the world around her. It took a half outr to drive to Gemma's houes. But there were already bikes and people outside so he couldn't stop to take pictures of anything with out seeming suspicious. So as Opie and his family pulled in Josh just kept going on knowing this road would circle him back into town taking the outskirt road. Once Opie and his family parked the kids were already running for the backyard where the pool was and all their friends were. Bobby tried to stop them but they weren't having it. As they passed him he said "Learn to stop and say hi top someone." He laughed as he went to greet lyla and Opie each with a hug. Lyla smiled and said "forgive them. They just have been looking forward to this all day and they had to wait for Opie." Opie smiled as he lifted the the hatch open for the prospect to grab the food and beer out of his trunk for the party. Lyla said "I'll see you inside babe i'm going to see Gemma and the Girls and tell them the news." "what news?" Bobby asked looking at the two. Lyla was already headed up the stairs to the house. "Were gonna have another little one running around here." Opie said with a smile. Bobby grabbed to beers from the cooler that one of their prospects were carrying and handed one to Opie. The two toasted each other and Bobby said "congrats man. are you guys done after this or are ya'll trying for an MC of your own." as he let out a laugh. Opie sipped his beer and said "if it is a girl we are but if its a boy were going again i guess or thasts what she tells me. She wants one more girl. Lyla thinks Ellies gonna turn out like Jenna if she doesn't have another girl to play with." Bobby smiled and said "speaking of the princess of charming when she arriving?" "not sure honestly. I left her about an hour ago and she is just a shell of a human being at this point. She looks miserable and lost. She saw Tara today too." Opie responded taking a swig of his beer.
Bobby just shook his head and said "i wish your dad was here to see what Jax was doing to her he would know what to say to both of them." "I know me too it hurts me because he like my brother and she's my blood I'm not sure who defend or who to help more. cause no matters who side i take im wrong." Opie said seeing Jax dressed and headed down the hill to greet him. "whatever you tread lightly." Bobby said patting Opie's back. "I don't think Jenna will especially after what she saw when she left St. Thomas." Opie said before Jax reached them. That comment made Bobby interested but Jax asked "What Jenna see at St. Thomas?" "Nothing important except Tara tried to steal a copy of her ultrasound." Opie said making up a lie cause if Jenna wanted him to know she would tell him Jax looked stunned and said "didn't know she had an appointment." "she went for a check up. she hadn't felt the baby move since she moved out." Opie said this time it was a half lie. He knew that the baby was moving fine since he felt it kick once or twice while he was with her. "Is she okay?" Jax asked with a worry in his tone. "yeah doc said it was just stress and the baby was healthy just sleeping a lot." Opie said taking a swig of beer. Jax looked disappointed and concerned "is she coming out her tonight?" he asked hoping to see her to make sure she was okay. "Yeah she had to finish up deserts for your mom and then she would be here." Opie said with a soft smile as more people started to pull up and join the fin. Jax looked worried and now was almost looking for Jenna to show up.
As Jax watched every time a car came into his mothers drive way, Jenna was driving in her SUV headed to Gemma's house for family Dinner. She noticed a car following her. It was Josh Kohn of course following a few car lengths back but he wasn't being careful about it. She kept looking in her rear view mirror and watched them make every turn she made. So she took the road passing Gemma's cause she wasn't about to lead anyone there. Jax watched a car like hers drive by but her windows were tinted so you couldn't see in. Jenna drove to the outskirts where the old gun factory use to be in and stopped at the gas station and got out and headed inside. The girl at the counter knew Jenna's face well from all the time she use to come in. "hey Jenna." She said as Jenna watched the car drive by. Josh was pretty sure she made him but wasn't sure. He kept driving till he reached Charming city limits again where he knew he was safe. Jenna breathed a sigh of relief it was her paranoia from before when Abel was a baby and dealing with the Irish watching her cause Jimmy O'fallen thought he had claim to her since her father John made an arrangement that included his daughter. She lifted her shades up as she went to the coolers to grab beer for the guys and a few bottles of whisky. Jenna said "I need two packs of smokes too Louise" "aren't you ready to pop soon?" Louise said seeing her belly. "I wish three more month. You gonna to the bonfire after Gemma's infamous Saturday night dinner." Jenna asked knowing that she had been seeing juice every now and then. "I'm not sure. Depends on what time Rachel gets her. She at the dinner with Kozik. He wants to pop the question tonight." Louise said with a smile. Jenna smiled and said "well there is gonna be a lot of good news Opie and Lyla are having a baby." "Oh thats great so many babies for the future." Louise said with a smile. Jenna said "if Rachels to tipsy ill have Kasey rats little girlfriend in. so you can enjoy the bonfire with juice." Louise smiled slipping a brown paper bag into her bag with the booze. it was an ounce of weed that Louise grew and wanted to give to Gemma. "It's for Gemma she wanted for wayne's birthday. It the best strain i grow." Louise said with a smile as she handed Jenna her change.
Jenna smiled as Louise helped her with the cases of beer to her truck. Jax was pulling up on his bike. Jenna rolled her eyes seeing him. She knew he must have been watching for her. Jax said "Hey Louise." Louise just got red in the face and waved after putting the beer in Jenna's Car. "So you're following your own baby mama now." She said folding her arms as he approached her trying to touch her. "nah just need some fresh air. Abel's playing with the kids besides i need smokes." He said. Jenna pulled a pack out of her purse. "I got a couple packs for you." she said putting it in his vest. "always taking care of me. what would i do without you?" he said with a cocky smile. she just looked down her nose and said "i wouldn't know but you might want to get your girlfriend on a leash." Jenna said talking about he trying to steal ultra sound photos from her file the other day at the hospital. "i told her to stay away." Jax said Jenna just smirked evily. and said "im sure you did but she's been snooping in my file and tried to take an ultrasound picture out of my file. Luckily Kendall Happy's old lady caught her and told me." "i'll talk with her about it." he said looking at her belly that she was holding. "our daughter is fine i just have to ease up on the stress." she said as she felt her daughter kicking before she went to the driver side of her car. "can I feel her?" Jax asked "maybe later I gotta get these desserts to your mom." she said getting in her suv and starting it up. Jax closed her hatch and sighed as she drove off headed back to his mothers house. Jax decided to fill up his bikes tank while he was here and wondered why Jenna dodged his mothers house the first time around.
Jenna pulled up to Gemma's house seeing all the cars already there. This was going to be an interesting night for her especially with all the eyes that would be watching her and Jax's interactions with each other. She parked her SUV behind her brothers and the prospects were already opening her trunk and grabbing the supplies. Jenna hopped out and said "Thanks Boys." This was the only perk about being Jax's old lady every one waited on her and made sure she was taken care of even though it got a little stale cause it all felt fake sometimes. Tig Was the first to greet her as she pulled out the bag of whiskey. He gave her a hug and pulled a bottle out of the bag. "See I knew you only like me for the booze i bring." She said teasing him of course. "you know i love you for more but your my presidents baby mama n i like my nuts." He said smiling and feeling her belly. "how is the next heiress in there?" He asked. "Moving a lot today and ever growing." she said looking around hoping to see her son. "3 more months and you can enjoy these time again." he said kissing her cheek heading back to the boys. She really wished she could drink right now so she could forget about all the mental pain she was dealing with. She slowly made her way up the hill. Half way up Abel came running at her opened armed and happier than ever to see his mother. Jenna smiled and scooped him up holding him closely. "Mommy!" he shouted as she scooped him up. "You been a good boy for grammie and daddy?" she asked seeing that he definitely had been out in the sun. "Yeah PopPop Nero got me new supersoakers to shoot people with." he said with a smile as he kissed her. "oh yeah.. you been getting daddy good too huh." she said with a smile. "Yeah...Its been fun." Abel said as she put him down. Jenna tossled his hair a bit and said "go have fun mommy will be out here to watch you play in a few as long as you promise not to get mommy wet." "otay momma i promise." He said making a run for it. Jenna just shook her head as he made a run for the pool and did a flip into .
Shaking her head as she watched her son. It was like watching Jax when they were kids. He was always to do some stunt to try and impress someone. well not just someone her. She shook the thought from her mind and finally made it up the hill. Jenna snuck in through the side door that lead to the kitchen. Gemma was the first to look up and see her. She was cutting up veggies for the salad and smoking a joint with the other girls. "Hey baby hop in the circle. you bring those deserts like you promised." Gemma said to her still chopping away. "Yes Maam. got the cherries in snow pie, the french silk pies the german chocolate cates and the unicorn cupcakes for the kids. There are also special unicorn cupcakes and treats for the adults in the one in the garage with the booze." Jenna said as she took a seat as everyone was doing something for the party. Jenna went to help one of the crow eaters shuck the corn on the cob and Gemma said "No.. You are not doing any work. you did your part go out there enjoy one of your mocktails and watch your son play." Jenna put the corn down as Nero came in to grab more steaks and burgers. He is murmuring something in spanish before he kisses Gemma's lips. "mm mami them burgers are going fast. Where's Jax he said he wanted a turn at the grill?" nero asked not noticing Jenna sitting right there. "He should be back soon. He seen me drive past earlier cause i knew i forgot to grab the beer and whiskey and cigarettes for him that he asked me to bring. " Nero smiled walking over and giving her a hug and rubbing her belly. "That boy has been watching for you since op showed up. He's still got it bad." Nero said teasing her a bit. "He made his bed now he can lay in it. I dont wanna be done but i cant be a doormat either." "That my girl..Go relax and have fun lil man has been anioux to see you so go enjoy." Nero said sharing glances with Gemma wondering how this night was going to pan out.
The Night got later and the kids had decided that they were going to camp in Gemma's back yard and watch movie on the side of the garage once they ate and had all the fun they could have. This was part of the ritual of family dinner especially in the summer. The kids camp out in the yard and the adults start their fun in the foods with a bonfire where they can drink and do what adults do. Abel was worn out laying with Jenna in a lawn chair. He looked peaceful and even if she wanted to she couldn't move him he was completely dead weight on her. She was trying to stand up holding him and struggled. Jax who was watching her from afar like he had stayed since she got there came to her aide grabbing him from her so she could get up herself. "Thanks. you guys sure wore him out today." she said with a smile as Jax carried him the tent where the kids were gonna sleep at. Jenna seen that the adults had pitch a few tents too for the one who didn't go to the bonfire could stay and watch the kids. Jenna smiled at the care that Jax took with their son. It made her heart melt a little bit but she couldn't give into it. Jax put Abel into his sleeping bag and kissed his forehead. Jax stepped out of the tent and zipped it up. He looked at the ground and said "i know you wanted to take him to wherever your staying but i was thinking if you wanted to we could go to the bonfire and talk some of this shit out and be adults." Jenna looked angry she wanted a shot a drink something to keep her from going off on him. "I guess it will be nice just to be around other adult who aren't stuck up nightmares Like little miss Hale." she said with a smirk. Jax smiled seeing that smirk it gave him a bit of hope when he knew he shouldn't have any. He still needed to figure out Tara's deal.
The two headed back up to the pool area where it was adult swim time and most of the boys were drunk and showing off or wrestling each other. Jenna shook her head as Tig brought over a bottle of whiskey. He tried to hand it to her. He was half drunk and forgot she was pregnant. She pushed it away so he handed it to Jax who took a big swig of it. Jenna just shook her head and could see through the trees that someone had already started a fire so she left Jax to drink with the boys and headed to the fire. Jax watched her walk away and knew he was dumb for doing what he always did when their relationship got to real and he really had to grow up. He knew that she had to grow up the moment she was pregnant with Abel she had to stop doing everything she loved and he was watching it happen again. Jax went to the garage and seen Opie, Nero, Chibs and Bobby sitting at the work bench that Nero turned into a bar doing shots of whiskey or tequila. "what going on in here?" Jax asked with a smirk. Bobby who was pretty drunk said quite bluntly "making bets on how long till you realize you fucked upped with Jenna and when you two might get back together or if you will." Opie and the other threw something at him and they shouted shot at him to make him shut up. Jax shook his head at Bobby and said "Oh so we are a bunch of girls now playing truth or dare?" Opis slurring his words said "no were men talking about you and my sister and how awkward you two have been around each other today its weird." "What i was doing like everyone told me to which was stay away don't start drama don't bother her everything that anyone has said to me today about my distance i have done." Jax said as Nero pushed a shot his way. Taking the shot Opie replied and "it's awkward..you two just need to fuck fight whatever you do and get over it. Because everyone watched you tare at her and her stare at you."
As the Jax sat with his closest friend drink Jenna was sitting at the fire with Lyla and Gemma right beside her. They were all sharing a blunt together. Jenna was rolling up another as the girls were all talking about different things. Jenna hit the blunt looked at it and said "I think Tara is blackmailing Jax." this was a statement made outta no where. Lyla let out a giggle and Gemma asked "what makes you think that?" Jenna hit the blunt again before passing and said "because i just do my gut feeling i guess. because..." "because you're still in love with him no matter his faults." Lyla said with a soft smile. "something like that. I mean i just wanna wake up and think it was all a dream and we are gonna be a happy family. that i'm gonna wake up and my family will be whole again but I dunno if this is forgive able. I mean i can forgive what happens on the road but Tara its to personal." Jenna said before finishing the other blunt. Gemma took a hit and said "I totally get it was there a few time with husband number one and husband number two. But if it's meant to be it will work itself out." Jenna smiled. While the girls kept smoking and talking the guys were all giving Jax shit about losing Jenna. Happy even chimed it and said "You messed up big brother. You know how many guys who know they will never stand up to her standard want to be with her caus of how good she is as an old lady." "Oh yeah" Jax said and then asked "Like who?" Happy said "honestly some of them men in your own crew some from other charter even one or two that sit at your table. I'm just saying a girl like that is 1 in a million and they make a million Taras a day brother." Happy was speaking because he was one of the one at the table who really had a thing for Jenna. Mainly because he was usually on jenna watch duty because he knew she didn't like prospect following her around. Plus he had been doing it since she was pregnant with Abel as a favor to her father who was a good friend of his. "trust me i know what a good old lady she is." "You want her back?" Opie asked with his speak slurred. Jax looked at Opie like it was a dumb question. "Of course I do. But I gotta deal with Tara for 3 more months." "man whats that doctor whore got on you that you gotta cater to her." Bobby asked in his drunken state. Jax didn't get a chance to say anything as some of the old ladies had come up from the fires to get a jacket.
Jenna had come up with the girls to go into the house to use the bathroom. She could over hear two crow eaters talking about her. One said "you know he won't be single for long. They will end up back together by the end of this bonfire i guarantee it." The other one just giggled and said "I know but I mean I at least wanna try to get it in with him i mean he is so hot and she is so not even though she tries she looks like a pregnant whale and doesn't want him." Jenna could hear all of this and it broke her heart to hear words from women who didn't even know her. After using the bathroom she headed out the front door getting ready to leave. She didn't want to be hear anymore because she knew everyone would be right and she would take him back after every thing he put her through because she loved him. Jenna went to her SUV and got in but as she put her keys in the ignition Jax came up and made her jump. "where you going?" he asked. She wanted to smack the shit out of but she knew he was drunk and being the Jax she knew. "To the store mom need papers and a couple blunt wraps. Do you need anything?" She asked still acting like his old lady. "a couple packs a cigs i lost mine some where." he said shaking her head she said "okay i'll get you smokes." and then yelled "any other request" More whiskey was the communal response to her sarcastic remark. Jennna continued to shake her head as Jax closed her driver door and slipped her some cash. "I'll be back in 10 mins." she said knowing he would count like he always did when she was driving out here and it was late at night. Jax stepped away and let her drive off.
As Jenna was driving off Josh who was spying on the party and taking pictures for Tara to see of Jenna and Jax together he realized what time it was and realized he had to get home to greet Tara when she got off of work with their daughter who was fast asleep in the back seat from the car ride she had all day except for the few time they went home to wait and change. He followed her to the outskirts of town again which made Jenna paranoid she thought it was Kyle stalking her like he always did when her and Jax would separate since she used him as a rebound fuck. Jenna kept looking in her mirrior watching the car catch speed up to her. she was lucky the store was on the right and she could pull over just in case it was Kyle. When she pulled up there was two motor cycles outside one was by the employee entrance which meant rat came to sit with his girl while she worked the night shift. The other one Jenna didn't recognize when she pulled in. Jenna stayed in her car as Josh drove past her again speeing his way to Charming. Jenna felt the nerves but she shook them off and went inside and said "Hey Rat Hey Kasey." "Hey Jenna" Kasey said as she walked Jenna headed for the beer cave. When she went in She seen Rat stocking inside. "Hey Rat Boys ran outta whiskey you got some stashed in here that are cold." "Yeah louise said you were in here buys whiskey and that we should keep some stashed. Which kind you need?" Rat said as he finished stocking. "both the jack and the fireball. Its one of those night." She said with a smirk. "sounds like it if you need both. You want a case of both?" He asked. "might as well" she said as she held the door open for for him. Kasey said "you know yall could go to a distributor and buy in bulk." Jenna laughed said "A case at a time keeps them from dying of alcohol poisoning. besides we like keeping this place i business. I also need a carton of cigs." she said grabbing what blunt wraps and papers she wanted for Gemma.
As she was paying for them Kyle came out of the washroom and said "thats a lot of whiskey for a pregnant girl. you gonna drink that all." Jenna rolled her eyes and took her change as Rat took the whiskey to her car. "What are you doing out here Kyle. Jax catches you this close to his mama's house n to me he will kill ya." she said backing away as he kept coming closer to her "Was just taking a ride. My girl is out with her friends in la for a bacholerette party." he said. Jenna could smell the whiskey on his breathe and turned away from him as he had to pay for his gas. Jenna got outside and got in her truck telling rat to text jax telling him when she left just in case Kyle tried to do something dumb. Rat nodded and went inside as she pumped her gas since she did need some. "what are you doing out here on this night?" Kyle asked as he walked out. "up and Gemma's with my kid and going to the bonfire." She said being polite. "Oh yeah.. you remember that one where you gave me head in the wood while you were drunk as shit." he said getting a woody just thinking about it again. Jenna rolled her eyes and said. "no but i remember you dragging me by my hair that one into the woods cause you were mad that i didnt want you anymore and you raped me." Kyle said "oh shut up with that nonsense. all you bitches say the same thing when your drunk little whore and you don't wanna admit it happend the next morning." Kyle took a swig out of his flask and offered her a sip. Jenna finished pumping her gas and went to open her door. but Kyle put his hand on it and shut it before she could even get in. "If you wanna remember what a real man feels like call me okay." he said groping on her. Jenna pepper sprayed his eyes and got in her car peeling out of the gas station headed back to Gemma's where she would be safe. As she speed into the drive way Jax who was wasted was getting ready to get on his bike as soon as he got Rats text about Kyle.
Jax who was sitting on his bike while Gemma had his keys looked and see her head lights. He got off the bike and went straight for her. "You okay? Rat told me Kyle was there." he asked helping her outta the SUV. "yeah it was typical Kyle not owning his actions belligerent and a douchebag." She said handing him the carton of cigs. She didn't bother to tell him again about the car following her again. She didn't want to give him hope when she had none. She shivered a bit realizing she forgot a coat. Jax unzipped his hoodie and wrapped it around her. "im going to sit by the fire." she said pulling away before she the tension between them got worse. The prospect put the whiskey in the big fridge in the garage and the boys were throwing back shot as they headed to the fire. a few of them even had bottles in their hands to bring with them. While everyone was making drunk fools of them selves Jenna was just sitting back with her hands on her belly watching the stars wishing on one for her happy ever after like she always did hoping for a better tomorrow or something great. Jax's plan was to get wasted he knew Tara had been blowing up his phone but he had been ignoring it for Jenna's sake. He felt his phone vibrate and it was Tara. He just sent it to voicemail. As the call faded he smiled at the wallpaper on his phone which was him Abel and Jenna at one of last years bonfires when they were happy and complete as a family. The picture faded to black and he got an idea in his head. So he pulled up the camera on his phone and walked up to Jenna and said "Hey Selfie" He came around her and as she went to push the camera out of her face he kissed her lips softly. This made Jenna unsure of what to think or do so she just let it happen not realizing he actually got a a picture of them kissing. most of the people around them went awe but a few others were waiting for her to smack him or something. They both realized it was silent around them and they stopped. Jenna looked at him and said "i'm gonna head back to the house jax." She got up holding her lips and just walked away. This feeling she felt made her feel like a weak woman who couldn't do it on her own.
Jenna walked to Jax's tent which was usually her and Jax's tent and unzipped the side. All she wanted to do was lay down and cry. When she unzipped it she got in and took off her shoes. It was a decent size tent with room to move and had three sections. one that was mutual one that was usually Abel's when he got tired of being kicked or had bed dreams. n the other was a bedroom area for them. Jenna headed right to their area and see he had the queen size air matress blew up for her. it was obvious he was hoping she would stay with him. He even had rose petals on her pillow and a shirt of his laid out for he to sleep in. Jenna shook he head at this and sighed as she sit on the edge of the air mattress. Theses were the little thing she adored about him but her heart still hurt. she quickly stripped out of her dress and put on the over size tee that smelled just like him and curled up under the sleeping bag and wiped the rose petals on the floor before laying her head on a pillow and silently crying herself to sleep because the one person she wants to hold her was the one who hurt her even if she felt that Tara was holding something over him. She was finally asleep when she heard Jax mutter in the dark as he tried to undress himself to change out of his jeans. Shifting herself up she wiped her eyes and said "need help." "no you do enough a big boy." jax said drunk. "okay just offering to help. i won't do it again." she said laying he head back down. Jax finally mastered undoing his belt and let his jeans drop around his ankles. "Jenna I'm sorry I hurt you and our son I am and i know you will never forgive me but if it matters I love you Jenna." he said as he slowly put on his pj pants. Jenna sat up on he elbow and said "we can talk when your sober Jax." Jax didn't respond. he just laid in bed and cuddled her laying his hand on her pregnant swollen belly like he wanted to all day just to feel his daughters movements after hearing what Opie said about the baby not moving. Jenna just closed her eyes and let it go just because he was drunk. Jenna would be woken up one more time this time it was Nero on the other side of the tent with Abel. It sounded like Abel had a bad dream but she couldn't hear what about but she seen Jax's arm still drapped around her belly so she dare not move and risk walking him up and him having a hangover now. So she just closed her eyes again and went to sleep.
