Sorry it's taken so long to get this chapter up, it's taken me a while to find the right song to accompany the chapter. For those who were asking each chapter is named after a song , it's not always necessarily a song the characters would listen to, but more a song that's influenced my writing of that chapter or one I feel summarises the events/ feelings of the chapter. If anyone would like to know the artists then just PM me :) Please me some feedback, you've no idea how much I love reading your comments.
I knew you were trouble
Lenny had dropped her bags inside the front door at her Uncle Bobby's house, she would deal with them later right now she wanted a shower she felt she hadn't had a proper shower since she hit the highway out of Arizona. As she walked through her Uncle's house she took note of how very little had changed in the spacious house, the original RedWoods of SAMCRO all had large properties they had all had enough earnings over the years to invest it in real estate, one of the few ways they could legally tie up their cash.
Lenny stood under the cool water for a few moments as she just let it beat down over here washing away any dirt and grime after finally washing her hair she shut the water off grabbed a towel heading for the spare room, on her way she passed her Uncle's room and peeked in. It looked like it hadn't been slept in for weeks but Lenny knew it wasn't unusual for the guys to crash out in their dorms down the Clubhouse after a long night of partying besides it was frowned upon for them bring any of the girls from the club back home unless they were their old lady like Clay and Gemma.
As Lenny sat on the bed she considered calling Jen to make sure she fully understood how important it was she kept her mouth shut, suddenly this whole thing wasn't down to Lenny to manoeuvre. If Jen cracked the whole thing would come crashing down around them and Lenny would find half of Arizona's dealers rolling into Charming causing her all sorts of problems that would start with Clay and probably end with her with a bullet in her head. Lenny decided she had to honest with Bobby, there was no way she wanted any of this falling at SAMCRO's doorstep. It was all on her but Bobby may be able to help her.
The phone ringing brought her attention back to the room, "hello?"
"Lenny, it's Jax. You gotta get down to hospital ," Lenny stood up pulling a pair of jeans up over her hips dangling the phone between her ear and shoulder she grabbed a t shirt and yanked it over her head.
"Jax what the fucks happened? Is Bobby okay?" Her heart was bursting out of her chest as she raced down the stairs and out into her truck turning the engine over she swore she heard laughter in the background. "Jax, I'm serious what have you bastards done?"
"Just get here okay," Lenny threw her cell onto the passenger seat in frustration at how nonchalant Jax was, sure the guys got in trouble all the time but she was pissed he hadn't told her what had actually happened.
Lenny had arrived at the hospital in record time after driving recklessly to get there and she was now rushing through the hallways of looking for either a nurse or one of the Sons.
She bumped into a petite brunette Doctor, Lenny glanced down at her id card and read Tara Knowles. "Excuse me can you tell where Robert Munson's room is, he was admitted within the last two hours?"
Tara looked Lenny up and down, it seemed SAMCRO hadn't raised their standard, "I'm sorry I can only let family in that room,"
It didn't go unmissed how this Tara chick gave Lenny the once over , Lenny had to fold her arms tightly across her chest to stop herself grabbing the broads clipboard and shoving it up her ass. "I'm only gonna ask nice one more Doc, Bobby Munson's room?"
The bitch didn't even look up from that stupid clipboard, "like I said I can only let family in that room," Tara wasnt about to allow a SAMCRO groupie in to Munsons room to deliver Clay and Jax's get well blow job on her watch.
Lenny could feel her blood boiling, just who the fuck was this chick, suddenly having an MD made you holyier than thou? " and like I said ," Lenny lowered her voice as she stepped toward the Doctor, suddenly the clip board didn't seem so important.
The pair were interrupted by the arrival of Clay, Tig and Gemma. Tig pulled Lenny in for a hug immediately diffusing the tension between herself and the Doctor, even though Lenny glared at her over Tigs shoulder until Tara had the sense to look away. "Lenny babe, I'm so sorry! It was a total accident the fat bastard just got in the way,"
Tara suddenly looked back at the girl, so this was the Lenny-Ray Sawyer that had left SAMCRO with a void when she had left all those years ago. Tara had remembered how much jealously she felt toward the teenage Lenny despite never meeting her, every one of the MC had loved her, even Gemma, which was more than could be said for Tara. She quickly filled the group in on Bobby's condition explaining it was only a flesh wound and that he would out in 2 days tops as she didn't want to spend any more time with the Teller-Morrows than was absolutely necessary.
"Thanks doc," Tig turned with Gemma to go down the hall to Bobby's room, Tara stepped away but not before making a parting comment about hoping the gun was registered. Lenny reached breaking point and went after the Doctor but Clay grabbed her arm as she turned to glare at him, "Don't" Clay warned as he motioned for her to get into Bobby's room.
The three men sat on the bed laughing and joking about how Tig had shot Bobby in the ass whilst sampling the latest shipment from the Irish. Lenny couldn't believe she had panicked as much as she did , of course it was something trivial like being shot in the ass, that's why Jax was laughing she knew now that if it was something serious than he would have come got her. She gave her Uncle a kiss on the cheek saying she was glad he was okay before going and leaning against the window on the wall watching Tara finish her rounds as Gemma found a vase for the flowers she had brought.
"Gemma, who was that Doctor?"
Gemma looked up from the fluffing the flowers before walking over to Lenny's side and placing a hand on her shoulder they looked out at Tara, " that was Tara, ain't she a dream?"
Lenny sighed and turned her back to Tara and her doctor friends, "yeah, a real Peach,"
The three of them were getting ready to leave the hospital where Clay requested Tara not be involved in Bobby's recovery, Lenny stayed behind to explain to her Uncle that she had moved her things into his house.
"That's okay babe, someone may as well get good use of the house. Lord knows I dont," Bobby stoked her hair out of her face as she sat on the bed. "Still got a lot on your mind Lenny,"
Lenny nodded," yeah, but I'm gonna put it right Bobby." She smiled.
"So Clay said you met Dr Knowles?" Bobby raised his eyes at his niece in a knowing way, "he reckons you two are gonna be fast friends,"
Lenny scoffed, "yeah, right. We had a real girls guide vibe going. Seriously, what's her deal with SAMCRO?"
Bobby explained how Tara came into the MC life after Lenny's mum had taken her back to Arizona , how she had tried to turn Jax against the destiny that had been laid out for him way before he had even learnt to walk which obviously pissed off a lot of people. He told Lenny how she had all but packed his bags one night, the night of a big exchange between the Son's and the Mayans, Jax was an integral part of this operation it would be the evening he earnt his VP badge. Tara had left for Chigaco that night after realizing she was only ever going to come second to the club.
"Girl came back into town a few weeks back, some thing to do with selling her dad's house. Guys at the club think she's come to see if she has one last shot with Jax. Not that Gemma or Clay are gonna let that happen,"
Lenny kissed her Uncle's forehead as she went to the door, "I'll be back up tomorrow uncle Bobby,"
Pulling up at the clubhouse Lenny grabbed her phone from the front seat as she walked up to the doors, she had been home to unpack some of her stuff and had changed into a dark pair of jeans with a simple tank top and a black leather jacket, Lenny had finished the outfit with a pair of heeled sandals. Her hair was hanging in mess of waves down her back although her bangs just brushed her eyebrows. Clay had mentioned he needed to see her at the clubhouse so she had decided to head over a little earlier, pushing the door open she saw a few of the guys scattered around the room. Some where drinking at the bar others were shooting a game of pool, Lenny spotted Eden chatting with Chibs and Tig and headed over to see if they knew where Clay could be found.
Tig wolf whistles as his eyes dragged up and down Lenny's body, "hmm. Clay was finishing some thing with Jax in the Chapel Babe," she thanked him before heading for the Chapel, as she turned her back she missed Chibs smack Tig up the head but she seen the glare Eden was sending her way. Lenny had to stop herself giving her the finger.
Knocking softly on the door she waited before Jax opened it, "hey, Clay wanted to see me,"
Standing back he let her into the Chapel where she had been questioned about her arrival in Charming only a day ago, Lenny felt slightly on edge in this room. It was a room where all shit was laid bare between brothers who had sworn to protect each other and she had openly lied to her Uncle's brothers who had protected her without question, it made it more obvious to her she had to come clean.
"You okay babe?," Jax asked pushing his mop of blonde hair back as he took place in his VP seat, he watched as Lenny leant against the wall. She looked tired, worn out but still managed to look hot as hell with her tight jeans showing of her form and her choice of leather jacket made her look like she'd walked with SAMCRO her whole life, " "how was Bobby?" His smile made Lenny shake her head, this guy was meant to be the vice president of a feared MC club but managed to look like an innocent kid with that goofy grin.
"I think he'll live," Lenny shifted her weight as she anxiously waited for Clay, "so where's Clay?"
"Big man had to attend to some business," Jax leant back into his chair looking instantly like the business man Lenny had heard the girls at the clubhouse go weak at the knees about. "But he had a business proposal for you," he began as he got up and perched on the table opposite Lenny so he was closer, she obviously wasn't moving from her spot on the wall.
Lenny's mind went wild with what business she could help Clay with, "Go on"
Jax went in detail about how Bobby had been booked to do a few little earners for the club but seeing as he had been struck down in the line of work he was out of action as Bobby Elvis for a while and Clay had hoped Lenny would take on the gigs but the Sons would take a percentage of the earnings.
" What kind of shows?" Lenny had to be sure they weren't planning on pimping her out.
"The kind where you sing, Lenny. We ain't into that shit," Lenny begged to differ. she had seen them take their pick of girls in the club.
"You don't even know if I'm any good," Lenny reasoned, normally people to check if some one was any good at a good before hiring them.
"Well, I could test your vocal range right now if you wanted," Jax let his hand wander across the oak table in a suggestive manner.
Lenny knew better than to blush but Jax was pushing her and after their morning out on the front of the clubhouse she had to stop herself from pushing Jax down on the table to show him just what she was capable of. "Ill do the shows but I don't want to go alone,"
"Of course" Jax pushed himself off the table and stood in front of Lenny tucking a stray hair behind her ear and letting his callous fingers graze her cheekbones, " we never let our precious cargo go unprotected," he reached for the door beside Lenny and missed the deep breath she dragged in to compose herself, she really wasn't sure how long she and Jax could do this dance.
