Chapter 8

JAX POV

I should have known that this would happen. As soon as Eliza called me, I ran out of the hospital and headed to the clubhouse. I had to get to Opie before he did anything stupid. When I pulled into TM his bike was already there. I walked into the clubhouse right as he approached Koz. "Ope! Stop!" I yelled.

Opie froze and turned around. "It needs to be done." He said.

I walked up to him. "No, it doesn't." I said. "He said he would keep his mouth shut and I trust that he will, but if you do this everyone will have to know, and it will cause nothing but problems." I said. By this point we had everyone's attention.

"What is going on here?" Clay asked.

Opie and I both turned and faced Clay. "Found out that Eliza had a casual relationship with a brother from another charter." Opie told him.

"And said brother has agreed to keep his mouth shut." I said.

"WHERE THE HELL IS ELIZA?" Clay yelled.

"She's on her way." I said glaring at Opie.

"Good."

Eliza POV

"WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED?" Clay yelled. I explained to him about my relationship with Kozik. Clay looked sympathetic. "Okay...here's what is going to happen." Clay started. I was bouncing my leg because for some reason Clay always made me nervous. "You're going to go home and wait for Opie." I nodded. "I will talk to him. I will try to make him understand that you never thought that you and he would end up together."

"Thank you, Clay. Thank you for understanding that I never meant to cause any trouble for the club." I said.

"Your welcome. But I am also going to allow Opie to take Kozik to the ring."

"I understand." I said getting up from my chair and walking to the door.

"And Eliza?" He said causing me to turn back. "Make this right."

"I will." When I walked out of Chapel, I tried not to meet Opie's eyes. I got in my car and drove home...to wait.

Opie POV

After I saw Eliza leave, Clay waved me into Chapel. I walked in at sat down beside him. "Do you think that beating another because of a little history he had with your girlfriend is gonna do anyone any good?" Clay said.

"I know your right. I just feel...betrayed" I told him.

"I know you do son. But it's my fault to be honest. When Eliza left for college, I asked the Tacoma charter to look after her. I thought that if I had Tacoma check in on her from time to time that it would make her miss home and then she would come back. But at one point she had considered staying permanently despite the deal that we had made. But Jax told me that if I didn't do something that he would go get her himself. So, I swallowed my pride and called Eliza. I told her that I was sorry. Something that I never did. The next week she called and said that she would be home after graduation." I nodded at everything that Clay was saying only believing about half of it.

"I get what you're saying. Everyone has a past. It's not like she has my crow now or had it when she left." I said.

"Exactly. Now go home and fix things with Eliza. You don't want to lose her."

"Thanks Clay." I walked out of the clubhouse and hopped on my bike. I was heading home. Heading home to Eliza who hopefully would talk to me when I got there.

Eliza POV

I was sitting on the couch waiting for Opie to get back from the clubhouse when my cell rang. I grabbed it off the coffee table and saw that it was Jax. "Hey Jax, everything okay?"

"Umm...not exactly." He said

"Okay...what's going on?"

"Wendy went into labor."

"Okay, I'm on my way." I closed my phone shut quickly and began to gather my things. I quickly wrote Opie a note telling him what was going on and that we would talk about "us" later. I got into my car and headed toward the hospital. I called Mom on the way.

"Hey baby, everything okay?" She asked me when she answered.

"No Mom, I don't think that it is." I said to her.

"What's wrong?"

"Jax just called. Wendy went into labor. I'm headed to the hospital now."

"Okay, I'll call Clay and the boys. I'll meet you there. Everything will be okay."

"I hope so Mom." I hung up the phone with Mom just as I was pulling into the hospital parking lot. It didn't take me long to find Jax.
