Your feedback absolutely makes my day brighter! I love reading what you all have to say and little predictions you make or what you want to happen. Here's the next part :)
Fair warning, this chapter does contain sex.
There's a storm coming~
Everything was trashed, glass was shattered, the tables were all flipped. The bar was nonexistent, save for a few bottles of Jack and a stool. The Sons had just came from the garage after hearing all the commotion, to find Jax and Opie taking swigs of Jack and Tara and Lyla looking more pissed than ever, but they just stood there by the door not going in, yet anyways. Knowing better than to interrupt whatever was going on between the couples.
But, it wasn't like it was something that could just be ignored. Jax and Opie were in there screaming their heads off like mad men, throwing shit so hard it could be heard miles away. Tig was the first to break the silence, "What the hell do you think is going on in there? Do you think it has to do with what happened with the porn pussy that was here earlier?" Clay got filled in by Gemma a short while ago and just said, "Let them throw shit around and relax a little, as long as no one gets shot or hurt it'll be okay".
Bobby began to say something but was cut off by Gemma.
"Just leave them be boys and get back to work, they'll be alright". Gemma's voice came loud from the office door. They all turned around to face her, all giving her confused expressions, "They got some surprising news is all, it'll just take some time to adjust to it. So ignore anything that you hear or see for a little while longer".
They guys listened to the matriarch and went back to the garage to talk about the Ireland trip. Who was all going was still to be figured out and they needed a solid plan, so as not to go in there guns blazing and jeopardize getting Abel back safely. It wasn't so easy to act like all the shouting come from across the lot wasn't happening, but they did their best to do so.
***An hour earlier***
The two men looked over at Lyla and Tara, shock filled their faces as Jax asked, "What babies? What's she talking about?"
"Well…" Tara began, this definitely was not the way she was planning on telling him but she couldn't change it now, "I'm pregnant Jax". She saw the look on his face and hurried to get the rest of the words out, "I..I was going to tell you baby but I could never find the right time and wi-" his voice was clipped when he interrupted her to ask "How far along are you?". His tone sent a chill running down her spine and she was hesitant to answer, so Lyla stepped in, "I'm about twelve weeks along, and she's not that far behind me. She's about ten wee-" Opies voice came crashing into her ears so loud she's surprised her eardrums didn't shatter, "WHAT THE HELL DO YOU MEAN YOU'RE TWELVE WEEKS?!", it caused both the girls to jump back a few inches and look up to Opie and Jax again.
"I'm sorry Ope, I know I should have told you earlier but.." her sentence went unfinished, she couldn't stand the look on his face so she just went silent, looking over at Tara.
Taking a deep breath, Tara started from where Lyla had left off. "So I'm about ten weeks Jax", tears came to her yes when she saw the fury in his, she didn't know if he was upset because she was pregnant or because she was so far along and she hadn't told him. It was silent for another minute, the guys fuming and the girls waiting to see what would happen.
"You're ten weeks along and couldn't find the right time to tell me? Are you fucking kidding me Tara?" He slammed his fist against the picnic table, breathing harshly he looked up and saw there was people around, not needing more of a scene to be caused he said "In the clubhouse. NOW." He got up and stomped off like a petulant child, Opie following behind, "You'd think they're the ones who are pregnant, all those emotions." Tara let out with a huff, she was not going to enjoy the temper tantrum that Lyla and her were about to endure. "I'll let them get their bitching out now and that's it. It's not like they weren't there during the sex, we didn't impregnate ourselves you know", Lyla said with a dead serious look on her face as they walked into the clubhouse.
In the couple's minutes it took them to walk into the place, they had seen the handiwork the guys had done.
***Present***
Lyla and Tara had been standing there, letting these two idiots get their anger out, for the last hour or so. More things were trashed, thrown, smashed, and just about anything else Jax and Opie can think about doing with the furniture in the clubhouse.
"This shit is the last thing we need right now", Jax said with an exasperated but angry sigh, an equally pissed Opie stiffly nodded and added, "You don't say.. a baby?" Tara could feel her stomach start to churn, thinking Jax didn't want a baby, with her, made her nauseous. She and Lyla had been sitting at one of the tables that hadn't been completely destroyed.
Assuming that their little rampage was over Lyla spoke up, "So are we going to talk about this like adults now or do you two need some more time to act like cavemen ass holes?"
Opie looked over at Jax, who pulled up a chair to the table and sat down across from the girls, so he followed suit. "I just want to know how you two are that far along and didn't ever find a time to let us know we were going to be dads again", everyone was surprised at how calm Opie's voice was as he talked. "Our reactions may have been a bit over the top but I think it's acceptable considering everything else that's going on right now". He scrubbed a hand over his face and looked at the girls, who both had tears in their eyes, God knows why, at this point. "Okay then, let's talk now" Jax said, "Go on, what do you want to say?"
Tara decided she probably needed to go first, knowing that it wouldn't be long before they would have to get ready for Ireland and that would be another battle with Jax now that he knew about the baby. "Look, I'm sorry I didn't tell you but I really couldn't find a good time. You were rather on a run, or dealing with shit for the club, or I was busy with Abel and work. It's not like I was trying to hide it from you" the tears were coming but she didn't care she needed to finish saying this, "I told you I wanted the truth no matter what, and you told me it worked both ways. I took that to heart and meant to hold myself to it, I didn't lie either though, you never asked and I was trying to look for a good time to let it out. It just never came, I was planning on telling you today but your mother beat me to it".
"Ten weeks though Tara? I get it, I do, you were nervous and with this Abel being kidnapped problem going on you did what you thought was best. But it wasn't. And on top of not telling me, I have you and crazy number two over here" he pointed to Lyla, "Jumping on and picking fights with people. Not telling me and then doing insane shit doesn't make me any less pissed, it makes it worse babe". He leaned over and wiped the tears away from her face before brushing his knuckles across her cheek. "Why are you crying?", she had just stopped and grabbed the hand that was on her cheek.
"Yeah you two tiny asses shouldn't be doing that sort of shit, especially when you're pregnant". Opie said as he stood up, "Come on babe, let's give them some privacy and we gotta talk anyways". Lyla took the hand he dropped down to her and they walked away, leaving Jax and Tara sitting there, in silence, looking at the other in the eyes. "Let's go in the dorm, it's more private and not such a disaster". They stood together and moved down the hall until they reached Jax's dorm room, he closed the door quietly behind them as she sat down on the bed and looked up at him.
He sat down next to her and she turned to face him, "Jax I know it's a really shitty time to be finding out we're going to have a baby, and I know you're not ready for another one, maybe it's just me you don't want to have it with but I need to know where your head's at right now Jackson. I can't live with the what-if's and wondering if you're out fucking someone because you don't want to be in this anymore". She let out a shaky breath and looked down to the floor, she didn't know what she was going to do if he really didn't want to be in this with her now that things had changed some more, she loved him and it would destroy her if those were the words that came out of his mouth when he spoke.
Lifting her chin up with his thumb, he looked her right in the eyes and said, "Tara, I couldn't think of anyone else I would rather be having a baby with. I always thought you'd be the only person that I did that with but things went a different route for a while. It's just right now things are chaotic and I'm worried that something is going to happen with the baby and I would never be able to forgive myself if it did". She closed her eyes for a second as relief flooded her, he was just scared and that was something she could deal with because she was scared too.
She moved her hands up to his cup his cheeks and stroked her thumb across his scruffy face.
"I'm scared too Jax, I haven't done this before and I'm still worried about Abel, getting him back, being a bad parent, the list is endless, but I can't do it alone. I need you here with me, physically and mentally baby".
He pulled her into his lap so they were nose to nose now, "I'm here Tara, I always will be. You're not doing any of this alone I promise". He put his mouth against her lips and whispered, "I love you, I have since I was sixteen" before he closed the inch of distance between them and kissed her. It was a deep and passionate kiss, one he's been dying to give her since they came back from his grandads place. He was glad that she was returning the kiss, deepening it, putting her all into it as if they were the only ones that mattered right now.
Tara took charge of the kiss, she poured all the love she had into it. And when she started to push him back so that he was laying on his back and she was straddling him, it occurred to her just how much she missed his touch, his lips moving down her body, feeling him inside of her. She didn't know if it was the fact that she missed that physical connection to him or the hormones but she wanted him, now, and she was going to have him. Her hair felt as a curtain around her face as she leaned down over him so they were inches away from each others lips, again. "I need you Jax" was all she had to say, he knew exactly what she meant.
In one quick move, he pushed up off his back and had her beneath him on her back. He pushed her shirt up and pulled it over her head, tossing it to the side. His mouth found its way back to hers and he sealed their lips together, his tongue traced the seam of her lips before it dipped inside and found hers. Tara's answering moan turned him on even more, he moved to take off her bra and grabbed a hold of her breasts in his hands, rolling her nipples between his thumb and index finger, pinching ever so lightly that it gave her a tingle running down her spine, but not leaving a mark. She arched into his touch, his hands kneading both her breast now, and his mouth worked its way down her body, alternating between kisses and nips.
When his mouth reached her navel, he gave it another little nip before kissing it. His hands moved from her breasts to her jeans so he could undo them, he took his time pulling them off of her. He loved her long legs and the fact that she had some meat on her, unlike Wendy. He dismissed that thought immediately, he did not want to be thinking about that nasty junkie when he was about to make love to the only woman that has ever mattered. He got rid of her jeans and started crawling his way up her body, once again, licking and kissing along the way.
He stopped when he reached her panties, and was quick to rid her of those too. As his mouth found its goal, he closed his mouth over her and started sucking on her clit. Tara let out a moan and fisted his hair in her hands, holding him to her. "Oh God Jax" she couldn't stop saying it as his tongue worked its magic on her, dipping in and out of, licking up her juices as she got closer to her climax. He added two fingers in her and started pumping his tongue faster, harder, while his fingers were in and out of her at warp speed, again and again until she was screaming in ecstasy, clutching his hair even tighter in her hands as he gulped up the rest of her orgasm.
Looking up at her face Jax licked his lips and smiled at her, "Damn" was all he could say. "You have too many clothes on" Tara said seductively pointing at his kutt and the rest of his clothing, "Off, now". And that's just what he did, starting with his kutt and hoodie, then his jeans and boxers kicking off his shoes along with the boxers. When he was fully naked, he moved back to the bed and hovered over Tara. He grabbed his cock in his hands and ran it up and down her slit, teasing her, getting her wetter by the second. He loved the little whimpers that escaped her mouth whenever he put the head in and then pulled out again.
"God, Jax. I need you inside of me, now, please I can't take it anymore baby I need it now". He gave her what she wanted and thrust into her, causing her to let out a moan of pure pleasure. Pulling out and thrusting again, over and over, he groaned and moved his mouth of her ear so he could say endless words of lust and love. Her core tightened and her clit was throbbing from the impact, he had her on edge again and that was a good thing because he was about to come undone. He reached between them and started rubbing her clit as he continued to pound into her, "JAX" was all she could manage to say as she exploded around him, he followed her as he grasped her hands in his and unloaded into her before collapsing.
He rolled them over so Tara was next to him, breathing ragged and all sweaty, he was content with everything. Her head was on his chest and she was moving her fingers up and down his chest and abs, "I love you Jax". She meant it with all her heart, nothing could stop her from loving him, "I love you too Tara", he kissed her temple as his fingers played with her hair.
Angling her face so she could look up at him she said, "We need to talk about what we're going to do". He looked confused, not knowing exactly what she was talking about, "About Ireland, I mean, and everything that's going to happen with that trip and all, you know I'm still going right?" Jax let out a sigh, "Tara, I already had trouble saying okay to you going but now? You're pregnant, it's not just your safety I have to be concerned about anymore. We got a little one growing in there" he said as he massaged her belly, "and I don't want anything happening to them". She stopped her hand from moving up and down his body and moved it to his face, "I know baby, I know but me staying here is just going to cause more stress for me and that's not good for any of us".
Another hour passed before Jax and Tara emerged from the dorm room and into the main room of the clubhouse, Opie and Lyla still hadn't come back and no one else was in sight. Jax never realized how much damage him and Opie had done, until now, and he felt guilt wash over him. He couldn't believe the way he acted, especially right there in front of Tara, he brought her hand which was laced with his and kissed her knuckles, "Jesus, Tara I'm sorry for all this" he said looking around the destroyed room.
She smirked up at him,"It's okay, just know if it happens again you'll be getting shit for it, not getting laid" she deliberately said it playfully, she didn't want the mood to become gloomy again.
She had finally gotten him to be semi-okay with her going to Ireland with him, and things were starting to fall into place, she wasn't going to let the past screw with them anymore.
The whistling is what made them turn around towards the door, where Clay, Tig, Bobby, Juice, Happy, Kozick, and a few of the prospects were standing, assessing the damage as well. Bobby letting out a chuckle, looked over at the prospects and said, "You boys better get to it, it's going to take a while to clean and restock the bar". The rest of the guys started laughing as they walked over to Jax and Tara who were by the bar. "Everything okay son?" Clay asked in his usual gruff of a voice,"Yeah, everything's fine" he gave him a smile to reassure him, "Just had some adjusting to do, that's all".
With a smirk Clay replied, "Yeah, I know. Your mom filled me in, listen jack ass you can be shocked all you want, that's fine. But you and Opie aren't allowed to go breaking shit and throwing tantrums, as if you two weren't the ones who knocked them up in the first place". He turned his body and pointed a wagging finger at Tara, "And you. You can't just go beating the shit out of porn bitches with Lyla when you two have growing human beings inside of you, last thing I need is something happening to either one of you or the babies and Prince and his best friend go ape shit again".
Tara offered a little smile and said, "You got it, no more cat fights. I'm headed home though, I'm worn out and need to pack everything, and before you say anything, yes I'm going to Ireland with you and you better not try and stop me. Ask Jax how well that went".
All the guys put their arms up in mock surrender as Tara playfully threw dirty looks at them. Tara was family and they all loved her and that attitude of hers, she wasn't one to be fucked with and she proved it more than once. They respected and admired that, every single one of them knew she and Jax were meant for each other, from the way they looked at each other and how they acted to the jealousy they both had. Yep, two crazies meant for one another no matter what.
She turned in Jax's arms and gave him a quick kiss on the lips before she headed towards the door to go home. As she was walking out, Opie and Lyla were coming her way, both had smiles and were walking hand in hand so she guessed that all went well with them too.
"Hey, I was just headed home to pack and get some rest you want to come with? Let the guys do whatever it is that they need to do". Lyla smiled brightly at her, "Yeah sure, I have packing to do too, I convinced Opie you won't be able to be in Ireland alone with no one there with you that you know". Opie shot Tara a look before giving in and smiling, "Yeah, Yeah whatever you two gotta go do, go and do it, we'll be here", he dropped a kiss to Lylas head before heading to the clubhouse, and the girls heading home.
A few hours had passed when the girls got done packing everything that might be needed for the trip. They talked about anything and everything, from their worries to Abel and the new babies that were coming. "You really think everything will be okay Tara?", she looked over at Lyla sitting by the breakfast bar, "Yeah, I do. We're here to keep them grounded and sane, they just need a little more time to adjust to all this. I promise, Ope's crazy about you Lyla". That settled her nerves, and she turned the conversation back to lighter things.
The girls decided to make some dinner and head over to the clubhouse so the guys could eat and they could talk to Gemma a while, see if anything else was going on. It took them about another hour to get the dinner ready, settling for spaghetti with meatballs and garlic bread. Something easy that would satisfy the guys and wouldn't take up too much time, it was getting late and they were suppose to be heading out tomorrow, if things went according to plan. They didn't want to stay up too late slaving over something that would be devoured in a minutes time flat and the taste probably wouldn't even register to them.
Putting everything in the car, the girls climbed in and headed to TM.
Pulling into the Driveway the girls notices there was more cars than usual. They figured out what was going on when they parked and took out everything from the car because Gemma came over to help them and said, "Some of the other charter's came by to see what the plan was and what they were going to do". "Okay, well I guess we can just take this in there and whoever wants some can take some", Tara smiled, she was happy to see these men, who were usually at each others throats, coming together to save an innocent child. Her innocent child.
As they walked into the clubhouse everyone said their greetings, and a few of the guys came up and gave the girls a quick hug and hello, asking if they needed any help. Tara said they were good and for them to focus on the meeting and some food if they were up for it. A big shout of "Thanks!" came from the crowd, as the girls made their way into the back where the kitchen was. They put the food down, put out plates and forks, and anything else that might be needed for them to enjoy the meal. The bar had been fully restocked by the prospects, and the clean up job was pretty good too.
"I'm going to go with Ope for a little while, I'll see you later or tomorrow" Lyla said with as she hugged Tara and walked out of the kitchen to go find her man.
Tara decided to go find Jax, heading towards his dorm since she thought that's probably where he would be. As she walked down the hall his dorm opened and she smiled, that smiled quickly faded as she saw who walked out. She thought she was seeing things for a minute, even rubbed her eyes, when she looked again there she was standing in the doorway, grinning wickedly at Tara. "What the fuck are you doing here Ima?" she snarled, did this bitch not get the memo? That wasn't what infuriated her though, no, the fact that she had just walked out of Jax's dorm is what had Tara seeing red.
Before I knew it, Tara had a fistful of her hair in her fist and was dragging her out of the clubhouse to the parking lot. "JAX! JAX WHERE ARE YOU, YOU MOTHERFUCKER. I TOLD YOU CHEATING WAS MY DEAL BREAKER. ARE YOU HAPPY? WE'RE FUCKING DONE YOU SON OF A BITCH". Ima laughed bitterly, "You really think he cares? He doesn't want you anymore bitch, deal with it". That caused Tara to pull harder on that cheap fake blonde hair of hers until she howled in pain.
Jax looked down from the rooftop, where he had been since Tara left and they wrapped up their meeting before the other charter's had come, to see her standing very angrily with Ima's hair in her hand. He hurried down the ladder and ran to her, "Babe, you okay? What's going on?" She let out a fake laugh, "I don't know. Why don't you tell me why I found this slut walking out of YOUR room?'.
He looked completely dumbfounded, he had no idea Ima even came back, let alone that she was in his room. "Babe, I don't know. Honestly. I've been on the roof since you left". Tara eyed him for a moment before she let Ima go, "Well then why the hell was she in there? Someone had to have let her in".
"Tara, babe I don't know. Maybe one of the guys let her in, I sure as fuck didn't". He was hoping that she would believe him because it was the truth.
"You're such a lying piece of shit Jackson. It's pathetic really, you can at least own up to your shit and not lie about it. And you" she glared at Ima, "I don't know how many times you have to be reminded he's off limits, well he was. You to are free to fuck each other all you want now, I'm done. Fuck you both".
It was at that moment that one of the guys from another charter came out, "Oh there you are Ima, I was looking for you. Oh Jax, I used your dorm for a while, hope you don't mind. This fine ass blonde asked me if I wanted the best experience of my life. I couldn't resist, and she said you wouldn't mind if we used your dorm".
If looks could kill, that fucker would be dead.
"Take your whore and get out of here, now." Jax practically growled. The guy didn't want to chance anything so he got his keys and took Ima and left. Everyone else was still in the clubhouse, except for Jax, Tara, and now Gemma.
"What's going on sweety?" The question was directed at both of them but Gemma was looking at Tara, who had a guilty look on her face as she looked at Jax. "Um, I'll just let you two talk and I'm going to go make sure they all have enough food in there", and with that she walked off leaving the two of them just staring at each other. "Jax..I..I'm sorry. I'm so sorry", she looked at him with blurred vision, thanks to the tears that were threatening to spill out at any moment. She wanted to run into his arms, hug him tight, but she didn't, she couldn't. She just accused him of fucking Ima and that had to hurt him, so she waited for a sign that he was okay, didn't completely hate her right now.
She waited, and she waited, for an eternity it seemed before he finally spoke. "Tara, I wouldn't hurt you like that. It shreds me that you would even think I would try to do something like that, especially now" Tara saw the anguish in his eyes and it cut right through her. "I didn't know what to think Jax. You have some screwed up thinking when it comes to the answer of how to keep me safe, and when I saw her come out of that room I just kept thinking, why? Why would he do this to me, now? I never thought of the fact that it was just her fucking with me and I really am sorry. I don't know what else to say".
He sighed, "You don't have to say anything Tara. I just need you to know that I love you and I wouldn't do anything to hurt you. I need you to trust me". "I do Jax, I do", she walked into his arms and let him wrap around her like a vine as the tears finally came out in a downpour. This is where she was safe, safe from the world and the evils out there. "I love you too Jax". She felt shitty for how she reacted to the Ima situation but what was she supposed to think? She knew how her man was sometimes and it got the best of her, hopefully it would be the last time but no one knew for sure. Trust was something she was just going to rely on and believe that Jax wouldn't do something like that to her.
After a while of standing there engrossed in each other, they joined the rest of the guests in the clubhouse who were laughing and having a good time.
Gemma, who was sitting on Clays lap, looked over at her son and Tara and smiled to herself. They were crazy, crazy about each other, and crazy in love, but they'd be okay. If a skanky whore couldn't get between them then she was pretty sure nothing could. She smiled and tipped her beer bottle up to Tara when she looked over at the matriarch and grinned. Tomorrow was sure to bring a whole new set of crazy people, so for now they'd enjoy the family that was around them.
Sitting down by Lyla and Opie, Tara snuggled into Jax's chest as he adjusted her on his lap. One had was rhythmically stroking her waist, while the other had a beer in it. "Brother, these two are going to be the death of us" Opie chuckled looking at Jax, letting him know he saw the little showdown in the parking lot. Jax laughed and responded, "Wouldn't want to go out any other way". They started talking about club shit as the girls were talking about random little things as their jobs, which Lyla pointed out she'd be leaving soon.
As the night went on, people were still talking and enjoying themselves and the company they had. No one knowing what tomorrow would bring, not wanting to think about it just yet.
Authors Note:
This chapter was a bit harder to write, mostly because I couldn't get more than a sentence in without messing up due to my sneezing and coughing. I think it turned out pretty well if I do say so myself. Aiming for 85 reviews! Be honest and let me know what you thought! Much love to all of you.
