Charming Is Not so Charming

Chapter Three: Messing with the Prospect

Juliet spent a few hours at the hospital and decided just to go back to her mom's. Gemma said she was heading to Jax's house to tidy up for when the baby could come home. Juliet was hoping that baby Abel would be able to come home soon.

Juliet found a joint in the ashtray on the dinner table and sat down and lit it. She took a big hit and held it for a minute before exhaling the smoke.

The backdoor opened and in walked her step dad.

"Hi, princess." He said kissing the top of her head. "How long have you been here?"

"A few hours, I guess."

"You should've come by the clubhouse."

"To hang around with a bunch of crow eaters…no thanks."

Clay smiled and sat down beside her.

"Where's Gem?" He asked.

"Over at Jax's cleaning." She informed him. "Apparently cleaning wasn't Wendy's strong suit."

"How's the kid?"

"The doctor said he was getting stronger." She said. "Maybe tomorrow they can do the stomach surgery."

"You want to tell me why you're back in Charming?"

"I came back for Jax and Abel."

"2 ½ months earlier?" He asked with a raised eyebrow.

"I figured I'd come back and get settled in before he was born but Wendy seemed to have other plans."

"Yeah." He huffed.

"I thought maybe I could help out around the garage in the morning." She said. "You know I know what I'm doing under a hood."

"You know you always have a job at the garage."

"It's just until I can open up my salon or something." She told him. "I did go to school for cosmetology, ya know."

"Waste of damn money if you ask me." Clay said shaking his head.

Juliet rolled her eyes and got up.

"I'm tired, I'm going to bed." She told him as she kissed his cheek. "Good night."

"Night."

She went into her room and closed the door. She went to sleep not soon after she had laid down.

The next morning, she got dressed and once again headed to the clubhouse/garage. She seen a guy with a Mohawk and two tribal tattoos on each side of it and the prospect looking her way from the garage.

"Hi, prospect." She said as she made her way to the office. "See you got the deer out of the beamer."

She didn't give him time to say anything as she went into the open office.

"How is the hell is that?" Juice asked the prospect.

"That would be Juliet Teller."

Juice looked at the prospect.

"I know what you're thinking." The prospect said nodding his head. "She's hot, right?"

"If Clay and Jax hear you say that shit, you will lose your other ball." Juice told him.

Half Sack just gulped and looked around to make sure no one else but Juice heard him comment on Juliet.

Juliet went into the small office and sat her purse down on the desk. Her mom wasn't there yet and she figured she was probably at the hospital checking up on Abel's status.

She looked in the window that showed the garage and seen the Mohawk guy and the prospect working on the cars. She smiled once she seen Half Sack look at her through the window and gave her a shy smile.

She turned away from the window and sat down at the desk. There was paper work scattered along the desk and on the computer keyboard.

She looked through the papers and made sure that the information on the papers where in the computer and filed the papers in folders and put them in the filing cabinet.

Opie pulled up and Juliet when out and hugged him.

"You come back just for me?" He asked towering over her small frame.

"Oh course." She told him with a smile. "You know I've always had a thing for you but Donna snatched you up before I had a chance."

He smiled knowing she was joking. Juliet was like a little sister to him.

Jax, Clay, Chibs, and Bobby came back and they had a meeting in the shop and she closed the office door so she couldn't overhear. It was club business, not hers. 15 minutes later, each member left.

Half Sack came into the office.

"Do you need anything?" He asked.

"Are you trying to flirt with me prospect?" She asked with a flirty smile.

"Um, no. Not at all." He said suddenly extremely nervous.

"So you don't find me attractive."

"That's a trick question, isn't it?" He asked shifting his feet with his head down.

"No." She said shaking her head.

"You're hot actually."

She raised her eyebrows at him.

"It's just I was told to make sure you didn't need anything before I head up to Tahoe with Bobby."

"I'm fine." She told him sitting back down at the desk.

He nodded and turned to head out the door.

"Kip."

He turned around shocked that she knew his name.

"Thank you." She told him with a smile. "You're sweet."

"No problem." He said walking out.

Everyone was gone for the day so she decided to lock up the shop. She got the newspaper and looked through the classifieds at houses for sale or for rent. She was 25 years old and didn't like the idea of still living at home with her mom. She found a listing for a 2 bedroom, 1 bath house not too far from the garage and called the number. To her surprise, the owner told her he could meet her in 20 minutes to look at the house. She drove by the house and the owner was already there. He gave her a tour of the house and she liked it. She filed out an application, and paid the first month and deposit and got the keys.

She smiled as she drove through Charming.
