Chapter 16
A little bit later, Happy and Daddy come back into my room. "What did the doctor say?" he asked me. "They are keeping me a few days. Want to make sure that I get some food in my system and won't pass out again before they let me go." I tell them. "I'll keep Vic while you are here." Luanne says. "Thanks Lu." I say. When visiting hours are over, Daddy and Luanne leave with Vic. I kiss him goodbye and lay back on the bed. I still have barely said a word and once they leave, Happy asked "Do you trust me?" he asked. "Of course I do." I say, looking down at my hands. "Then why don't you believe that I want you?" he asked. "I just kept hearing Gemma in the back of my head telling me you didn't. Happy, I have never been skinny." I tell him as the tears start falling down. He pulls me to him and says "Baby, you're perfect. I think you are the most beautiful woman I have ever seen. Never think that I don't love you or want you." he tells me. I just nod my head.
A few days later, they released me from the hospital but I have to keep a food diary of everything that I eat to make sure that I am eating like I should. Happy, Dad and Lu all keep sitting with me while I eat to make sure that I am eating. Happy gets called to the clubhouse for church and tells me to bring Vic and follow him so everyone can see him.
Walking into the clubhouse, Happy puts the carrier on the floor and picks him up and hands him to me. Everyone comes over and gushes over him. Gemma walks over and goes to say something but I stop her. "I don't want to hear anything you have to say. I don't want you near me or my son." I tell her. "Sweetheart, my husband is the president and that means I am in charge here. One word and you won't be allowed here anymore. I don't care who you're fucking." she says. I hand Vic to Lu and stand to meet her nose to nose. "The only one that I am fucking is my Old Man. You know. The killa. Now, back the fuck off because we all know how quick you go through Old Men." I seethe. Happy and Clay both see us as they come out of church and get between us. "Gemma, I told you not to say one fucking word to her." Clay says. "Are you okay baby?" Happy asked. "Yeah. Apparently I think it's time I take little man back home. Apparently we aren't welcome here." I say looking at Gemma. "Gemma doesn't get to say shit about who's allowed here." Clay says. "It's okay Uncle Clay. I'll still make sure you see little man." I say as I kiss his cheek and put Vic in the carrier to go back out to the car.
Walking out to the car, I put Vic in the car and shut the door with Happy right behind me. "Babe, you don't have to leave." he says. "Hap, if I don't, I'm going to hurt her. I'll see you when you get home." I say before getting in the car and leaving. Happy heads to the clubhouse and straight to Clay. "You had your chance to deal with her, Pres. Now's my turn." Happy says. "Go ahead." Clay tells him. He walks over to Gemma and gets in her face. "You ever disrespect my wife again, you won't have to worry about Pres doing anything to you because I will handle you myself. You will see why I am called the killa." he says before walking away. "Clay, you gonna let him talk to me like that? Jax?" she asked hoping for help. "Yeah, we are. We told you not to bother her and you still had to open your mouth. You are an Old Lady. Nothing more. You don't say shit. You stay out of everyone's business. Period. We have exiled people for less. You go after her again and you will disappear. Understood?" Clay asked and Jax nodded his agreement.
