Jax's POV
I really wanted to be there when mom showed up with three clothing and food. I did not want the girl to become panicked with meeting someone new quite yet, especially my mom. I knew my mother came off as aggressive and seemed rough around the edges when it came to her family and the club. To those just meeting her, she came off rude and the girl did not need that. She had been thru enough.
I had been so wrapped up with this that I forgot about the drop to Masen that happening. I called mom back and told her that I had club business to attend too and would be out for awhile. I told her to go ahead as planned and I would meet up with them after breakfast. After ending the call, the guys and I winner and took care of the drop and it went perfectly. But when we arrived back at the club, I did not expect my mother to be making demands on behalf of the girl. What have I just walked into?
Bella's Pov
This it's going to end bad, really bad. He said he would not hurt me unless I tryed to run but he looks stop taken aback by his mothers demand. He could change his mind. He is probably thinking I'm trying too use his mother to escape. What if he goes ahead and kills me or even hurts Gemma because pof the demand? I can't let that happen. I need to say something to keep her safe or maybe I should just stay quite. I dont know what to do. I'm so scared.
"I don't think that's such a good idea, Ma. I don't need her trying to run." He returned tho give me a pointed look before turning back towards his mother. "Plus, she doesn't look hurt or ill. she just needs a few days of steady meals and sleep."
"She needs to see a doctor to on the baby. Especially with having never seen a doctor for the baby before." He turned to say something to me but was cut off by Gemma. "This was my idea Jackson, So don't even start with her. "
Gemma walked closer too Jax and I panicked thinking he would physically lash out at her. I reached over seen picked Able up from his chair as he began to fuss. If Gemma got hurt who would protect him. I didnt know what to do. I just held him closer too me and closed my eyes praying the argueing would end.
Jax's POV
I didnt want to continue this argument with mom. I just wanted to take Able home and take a nap.
She layed her hand on my arm and spoke sofly. "Wendy went to barely any of her appointments and Able's heart problem was almost caught to late. The even lost her do to complications. Bella doesnt deserve to go through something like that. "
"The lack of care was not the reason for them lossing her. It was her inability to stay clean that killed her. " He argued.
"That maybe true in Wendy's case but they could have helpped Able. They could have caught heart issue and been better prepared to fix it."
"Ok, I see your point but she could tell the doctor what she saw or she could even try to run if she isnt being watched."
"That's easily solved. I wont leave her alone at all with the doctor. We will take Sac and Happy with us just to be safe."
"Fine. Straight there and back."
"I'll get Bella ready to go. We will leave at 1pm." Gemma turned to walk back to the table. "oh my."
My eyes shot over to the table and could not beileve my eyes. Bella looked completely terrifed as she cluthed my son to her chest. She was trembling. "Shit, I should have known better."
I pushed past mom and made my way over to them. Bella's eyes shot open as she heard me approach. "Im sorry. I didnt mean for you to argue. Ill be good and be quite." she stuttered out.
I squated down infront of her and spoke in a soft voice. "Im not mad at you and its going to be ok. What are you so scared off?"
Tears began to fall down her face as she spoke. "I know I was told not to talk but I did anyway. Please don't hurt us. I wont talk again and Ill stay in the room from now on." As she spoke, she pulled Able closer to her.
"Im not going hurt you or Able. Lets go get wipe your face off and get you ready to go to the doctor." I said as reached for her hand and pulled her up gently.
"I dont have to go. Im being to much of a bother."
"Its ok. We need to go make sure the babys healthy. Lets give Able to mom so you can get dressed." She held him even closer to her. "ok, We will take him with us. We will meet you and Happy in the car mom."
Once back in the room, I grabbed a pair of jeans and a SOA shirt from the box. I gently took a sleeping Able from her and told her to go get ready to go.
I needed to be very careful about ehat was said infront of her. She also seemed to be very protective of my son. This girl was a complete mystery to me.
