Jax had offered to go collect Lenny over Clay, the President hadn't been keen on the idea. Clay had felt betrayed, felt Lenny had deceived them but luckily Bobby had explained she was scared and probably still in shock although Clay had taken some convincing before allowing the club to vote on what action they would take.

Jax had known since Lenny's confession Bobby would have stood by her side, he had his doubts about some of the Sons but even they had shocked him at how readily they all stood up to offer protection. He was worried about Lenny after not seeing her since the day she sabotaged Tara's car at Teller-Morrow, he figured that was mostly to do with the fact he had left with Tara but had Lenny of been answering his calls or texts he could have explained he was simply trying to stop Lenny doing any more damage. Having Charming PD question her about an assault charge wasn't part of the whole playing it low card she had hoped to use to Charming.

Parking up outside Bobby's house he walked up the garden path with his usual swagger, Jax had taken the whole day trying to build up the nerve to go see Lenny. Truth was the woman terrified Jax, her whole being from the way she back talked all the guys at the garage to the way she ignited feeling Jax never knew he was capable of. Lenny-Ray Sawyer was a danger to the Sons, she was a weakness that could be exploited but Jax was willing to roll with ever they had going on regardless of the cost.

Lenny woke up in a cold sweat tangled in the bed sheet surrounding her, sitting up she pulled the sheet tight around and pushed her mussed up hair out if her face brushing the sweat off her face too. The nightmare was always the same, she was back in that parking lot but not with Jen and Nate. In her nightmare it was Jax holding the gun and he was aiming at her pleading that she be honest or he'd have to pull the trigger, club rules. When Lenny's breath evened out she tip toed out of the room and headed for downstairs.

Fumbling around in the dark she found a pack of cigarettes and then set about pouring herself a drink, luckily Uncle Bobby only kept the good stuff at home so she poured out the neat whiskey in a tall glass convincing herself it was just to save filling it again. Grabbing a hoodie she zipped it up over her tank top and shorts and headed for the dining room table flicking the light on along the way. Lightening the cigarette Lenny told a long drag and caught how much her hand was actually shaking, the nightmare had really shook her up this time. She knew what it meant, her time was running out and Nate's murder was gonna catch up with her very soon. Deep down she guessed it always would but Lenny just figured it would be Nate's gang that would punish her not the Sons and least of all Jax. Even thinking his name hurt right now, she had been so stupid thinking he actually felt anything for her, of course he'd love Tara. She was a successful doctor and Lenny was a bar performer at best or just a spare pair of hands at Teller-Morrow, what the hell could she offer that Tara couldn't just knock right out the park. Jax probably just wanted some one to keep Tara's side of the bed warm until she made her mind up about Jax, Lenny figured a man had needs as she downed the glass of whiskey.

The front door opened as Lenny moved to grab the bottle of whiskey pouring herself another tall glass and a short for her Uncle who she guessed had been discharged but to her horror it was Jax that stood before her.

"Thirsty?" He asked offering a weak smile that still managed to make her swoon despite her instinctive need to slap the smile from his face.

Lenny sat back down and took another cigarette from the packet before offering one Jax both the of them lit up in silence as she sat staring and picking at the tables grain with Jax just staring at her.

"Bobby okay?" Lenny asked breaking the silence.

Jax nodded as he took in the woman before him, little Lenny-Ray who was usually so full of spark and attitude looked a broken rag doll before him. He could see she hadn't slept right for a while from the darkened circles under her eyes. He had hoped coming clean with the sleeping but it seemed the stress of running and hiding was taking its toll or maybe just the fact she hadn't spoken to anyone about any if it but in stead bottled it up and hoped it would just go away.

"Yeah, he's not being discharged until morning now. He called and asked for someone to let you know," Lenny still hadn't looked at him .

"Should have just called," Lenny told a long gulp from her glass.

"What the fuck is up with you, Lenny?" Jax was quickly running out patience.

Finally Lenny lifted her head to Jax and just stared for a few seconds, "Does Tara mind you being here?"

Jax saw red as she asked that "what the fuck is that supposed to mean Lenny?"

Lenny scoffed as she stubbed out her cigarette, "it means does she not mind you visiting other girls when you should be tucking little Princess Tara up in bed. " the whiskey was starting the kick in and she suddenly didn't give a fuck, Lenny had gone out on a limb with Jax and he'd thrown back at her after every thing. She was more than pissed and then he had the nerve to show up in the middle of the night to play the knight in white armour. Lenny decided it was enough of the bullshit they had been spinning each other, " You should just go Jax, I'm not really in the mood for round two in Jax Tellers bed. It's getting pretty crowded in between your sheets,"

As Lenny went to push past him Jax grabbed her by the wrist holding her still, " stop it just fucking stop this shit okay, you're drunk and talking shit. So sleep it off and I'll be here in the morning to talk this whole thing through," this girl was driving him crazy, she was blowing hot and cold. Jax had in fact come for round two but only because he thought that's what Lenny wanted too, she had seemed into him the other night at the clubhouse. He wanted to let her know about the club's decision and to make sure she knew he was personally going to look after her. Some where along the way he had started to fall for Lenny and he had a feeling it started 9 summers ago. Wendy, Tara and all the girls in between had just been a distraction a pathetic attempt to feel as alive as trying to keep up with Lenny that summer. His mom had been right all along, she was made for Jax, even if she had secrets she couldn't share he loved her in spite of it.

"You don't owe me an explanation Jax, I'm a big girl now. I know how a one night fuck works you'd don't need to draw me a picture so just go back to Tara before she starts with the whole whore thing again, cause shit like that gets old real quick," Lenny pulled her wrist free. "In fact don't bother coming back at all. I'm going back to Arizona tomorrow, I'd rather face my death sentence there than have you and Tara take turns twisting the knife."

Her words cut deep into Jax, just hearing her speak about a death sentence made his blood boil. He pushed Lenny up against the hallway wall his hands at her bare shoulders as the hoody she had thrown on fell down her arm exposing her tank top and the heavy breaths she was dragging in trying to calm her self. Before Jax could even think about what Lenny would do to him his lips covered hers in a searing kiss, like his life depended it. Right now he needed to convince this impossible woman that he had an ounce of feeling for her.
