Charming Is Not so Charming

Chapter Six: The Next Day

Juliet did indeed have a good night sleep. She walked into the kitchen and put on a pot of coffee before going back into her room to take a hot shower. She got out and slipped on her robe and wrapped her hair in a towel before going to grab a cup of coffee. She sipped on her coffee and threw the empty beer bottles that was lying on the counter away and smiled. Who knew that she would only be back in Charming for a few days and had already managed to sleep with a member of SAMCRO.

She got dressed, styled her hair and applied her makeup before grabbing her cell, purse, and keys. She locked up her house and headed to her car and seen Hale pull up in his SUV. He got out and took off his aviator sunglasses.

"Chief Deputy Hale, I haven't even gotten into my vehicle and you're already waiting to give me a ticket."

"I'm surprised you are up this early considering the company you had last night."

She raised an eyebrow at him. "Are you spying on me, Hale?"

"No." He said shaking his head. "Just doing my normal patrolling. Trying to keep Charming a safe town."

"Well you don't have to worry about that." She said slipping on her sunglasses. "I'm well protected."

"Yeah." He said nastily.

"Do you have something you want to say to me, David?"

"No." He said shaking his head. "Just wondering what a girl like you would want with one Juan Carlos Ortiz."

"I really don't think my personal life has anything to do with you." She told him matter-of-factly. "Maybe you should get laid, might help you get that stick out of your ass and loosen you up."

She got into her car and he turned around and walked to his vehicle. She headed to the garage and walked into the office. She hadn't even sat her purse down when Clay stormed into the office.

"$4000, Juliet! For furniture!" He said holding an invoice. "What the hell is an accent chair?"

"It's a chair for my bedroom." She said sitting down at the desk.

"Do you sit in your bedroom?" He asked.

"Not particularly."

"$300.00 for a goddamn chair no one will sit in."

"You love me anyway." She said sucking up to her step-dad.

"Not if you continue to bankrupt me."

She smiled and kissed his cheek. He threw the bill down on the desk.

"Make sure it gets paid." He told her and headed for the door. "Where's Juice and the Prospect, I'm gonna kill 'em for letting this happen."

She giggled as he walked across the lot to the clubhouse looking to rip into someone's ass.

"What's wrong with him?" Jax asked coming into the office from the side door that led in from the garage. "He pissed that Juice is porking his step-daughter."

"You're not funny." She told him. "For your information, he's pissed that I ran up a $4000.00 bill for furniture."

"Jesus."

"What?" Juliet asked. "I can't help that I have good taste."

"Not with everything." He joked referring to Juice.

She threw a pen at him but he dodged it.

"You should talk." She told him turning on the computer. "I seen that crow-eater that came in here looking for you."

He smiled.

"You have no shame."

"Not at all." He said. "I take one for the good of the club."

Juliet rolled her eyes.

"I'm going to head over to the hospital later." He said getting serious.

"I'm heading over there later too." She told him. "First, I want to get this order of repos out to the guys before I leave."

Jax nodded, kissed his sister's cheek.

"We're all going to the carnival later too." He told her. "Maybe you could ride on the Ferris wheel with your new boyfriend."

She picked up another pen and this time, it binged him right in the back of the head while he was fleeing out of the office.

"Ow, that hurt! You little shithead!"

"That's what you get, asshole!" She yelled.

She gave the repo sheet to the prospect and another guy that worked at the garage. She made sure that everything was ok, before she headed to the hospital a little before noon. She got to the NICU and seen Abel in the incubator. She went inside and talked with him for half an hour and ran into Tara.

"Hey." She said. "Wendy OD'd last night. You wouldn't know anything about that, would you?"

"Why would I?" Juliet asked crossing her arms. "She's a junkie, she probably had one of her junkie friends smuggle something in for her."

"What are you doing, Juliet?" Tara asked with a sigh.

"What are you talking about?"

"This thing with Wendy…"

"I told you I don't know anything about that." She said nonchalant. "What Wendy does with her body is her business. I'm just glad my nephew survived that hell."

Tara frowned.

"Are you here to get back with Jax?" Juliet asked. "I feel a case of déjà vu coming on."

"I'm here to work. That's it."

"Ok." Juliet said holding up her hands. "We should really catch up one day. Talk about what you've been doing the last 10 years."

"Ok." Tara said nodding.

Juliet's cell went off and it was her mom saying everyone was getting ready to go to the carnival.

"Got to go, doc."

She got to the garage 10 minutes later and everyone was getting on their bikes getting ready to head over to the annual carnival. Gemma was on the back of Clay's bike and Jax nodded his head to his sister. Juice slipped on his sunglasses and she walked over to his bike. He handed her a helmet and strapped his own as well. She climbed onto the back and wrapped her arms around him. The members all looked confused and they looked at Jax, who shrugged.

"What is that about?" Clay asked his wife looking at Juice and Juliet.

"Young love, sweetheart." She told her husband as he started the bike.

They spent a couple hours at the carnival before Juice and Juliet walked over to her mom and step-dad. Juice told him that the Irish was coming.

"Go find the others." Clay told him.

"Ok." Juice said looking at Juliet before running off to round everyone up.

"Sorry, baby. I might have to finish you off later." Clay told Gemma.

"Yeah, I heard that before. Gimme some more quarters. I'm goin' back in the booth."

"Um…hello." Juliet spoke up disgustedly. "You do know your daughter is standing right here, right?."

Gemma laughed and Clay frowned.

"Hey, did I say something to you about banging my intelligence officer?"

Juliet shook her head.

"Ok, then." He said kissing both women before going to round up his club.

"Him and Jax took it easier than I thought." Juliet said as her and her mom watched Clay walk away.

"They'll pay Juice back." Gemma spoke up. "One way or another."

Juliet groaned.

"Come on. Let's go have some fun."

"I am not going into the picture booth with you mother."

Gemma hit her daughter on the arm. They walked around the carnival and even rode on a few rides spending some mother-daughter time together.

"So, you really do have a Juice fetish." Gemma commented as they sat down at a table with some cotton candy.

"I don't know yet." Jenna said picking at the candy. "I'll get back to you on that."
