Chapter 3- Monster Ball

After getting lost for 20 minutes Jade was finally able to find Jax house. Would she ever get use this city.

She hoped his house was in a better state than his room at the clubhouse.

Gemma was watching Jax's son Abel and wanted to see her.

As soon as Jade saw Abel in Gemma's arms she grabbed him and hugged him tight. He was so cute. She was getting babyitis.

"Gemma he is precious!"

Jade can see how proud Gemma was. She loved her grandson with all her heart.

Giving a quick kiss to inhale the sweet baby smell Jade sat Abel back into his crib.

"Gemma are you sure you are alright?" Jade was concern for Gemma after the lost her fiend Luann.

"I will be find sweetheart. Come sit and lets have some coffee. Abel should be taking a nap soon"

After pouring two cups of coffee Gemma sat down and took a sip. Before Jade could take a sip of her coffee Gemma got right to the point.

"What's going on with you and Jax?"

"What do you mean Gemma?"

Gemma put down her cup and looked straight into Jade's eyes.

"You are a smart girl Jade. Don't play dumb. Tig saw you two kissing the other night."

Jade rolled her eyes at the mention of the name Tig.

"Gemma I honestly don't know what is going on with Jax and I. I think there is a mutual attraction but that's it."

"Oh…. the attraction is mutual honey. I see the way he acts around you. Jade I have known you since you were a little girl and I do love my son but he can be a handful. He is not the average guy down the street. He is constantly around all kinds of shit and trouble. You know a little the MC life as your father was constantly getting the club out of trouble. You see what happen while you were away. They were in jail and in this lifestyle there can be a lot of shit storms."

"Gemma are you telling me to stay away from him?"

Gemma took another sip of her coffee before answering.

"I am telling you are too good for him and he will pull you into his shit."

Jade was confused. "Gemma as a mom don't you want Jax to have a good woman?"

"Yes I do but he needs to be with a woman who can handle this lifestyle."

Finally taking a sip of her coffee Jade asked what makes her think she could not handle their lifestyle.

"Sweetheart I do not want this for you. It will eat you up inside."

Jade sat her cup down.

"I don't think it would go that far with Jax. From my understanding he really gets around. Plus I don't think the club members would like the idea of their vice president with a black woman."

Gemma shook her head.

"Some may have a problem with it but there are no bylaws on old ladies just members can't be black. Actually Chibs wife is black."

Jade decided not to touch the obvious racism in SAMCRO's bylaws.

"It's not going to go anywhere Gemma. He probably is just curious and how did they say it on that movie Monster Ball he may just want to split dark oak. Which will not happen"

Gemma shook his head. "No baby it is more than that. I know my son. He can have any woman he wants. You should see all the crow eater lining up for him. It is not just because you are black that he is interested in you."

"Well what is it?" Jade asked truly baffled.

Before Gemma could answer they heard keys turn in the lock and Jax and walked in with an older gentlemen following behind him.

Gemma got up to hug her son and the older gentlemen.

"Hey what are you doing here?" Jax asked as he leaned over and gave her a peck on the lips.

Jade looked over at Gemma who had no expression but the older gentleman tried to hide the surprise in his face.

"Just having coffee with your mom."

Jax side eyed his mom. "Is that all?" he asked Gemma.

"What?! Can't I have her over for coffee without an alternative motive?"

Jax shook his head smiling.

"No you can't. I know you mom."

"Where's Abel" Jax asked

"We just put him down for a nap."

The older gentleman cleared his throat wanting to be introduced.

"Oh Unser this is my friend Jade. Jade this is Wayne Unser he is a family friend.

Unser walked over to shake Jade's hand.

"It's nice to meet you Wayne."

"Hey you are Bobby's niece right?" He asked.

"Yep I am."

"You poor thing."

Jade let out a laugh. "Uncle Bobby is alright. He has been a very good uncle."

Gemma looked at Unser and Jax. "Is something going on?"

"Yeah we need to talk you Gemma." Unser said.

Jade got up from her seat.

"I was just leaving. Thanks Gemma for the coffee."

Jax took her hand. What the hell Jade thought to herself. He would be so affectionate in front of his mother after she told her that Jax and her were not an item and was not going to be an item.

Safely outside Jax asked Jade what happen with Gemma.

"It was really nothing… she just asked what was going on with us."

Jax blue eyes sparkled as he wrapped his arm around her waist.

"And what did you say?"

"It doesn't matter, but she doesn't think it is a good idea for anything to go on between us."

"It does matter, what did you say was going on between us?" he asked as he wrapped his arm tighter around her.

Why was he doing this to her.

"I told her I don't know and maybe you just wanted to sleep with me because I am black. I don't know what is going on." Jade looked away from his intense blue eyes.

They always made her feel weak and at this point she would have given it up to him right then and there against her car.

Jax blue eyes darken.

"It is not because you are black Jade. I want to get to know you more. Is that okay with you and we can see where it leads to."

"I don't think Tig will be too happy with us getting to know each other."

Jax scowled. "Fuck Tig! I don't give a shit what he thinks. This is my life."

Jade smiled and pulled his baseball cap down a little bit in a playful manner. She really did like him.

Jax lightly kissed her lips. "I have to get inside and talk to mom. Can I see you later?"

Jade was elated. "That's fine."

Jade drove home confused. Should she pursue Jax and get caught up in the MC lifestyle. After all she was a professional woman with her own business. Why would she risk all she has accomplished for an outlaw? Because you like him you silly she told herself.

The way he made her feel the few times she saw him no other man in her past has even come remotely close to way Jax made her feel when she was in his presence or even when she was thinking of him. Rationalizing to herself it maybe because he was a bad boy and some women were drawn to that. The few times she saw him, besides his good looks, he looked damn sexy in his cut and knowing he was carrying a gun with the knife hanging on his outside pocket turned her on. He was unpredictable. The stories she has heard about him from her Uncle Bobby he was loyal and would do anything for someone he loved. He was caring and a good father to his son. About the time Jade pulled into her driveway she had made up her mind to take it one day at a time with Jax. She will just see where it leads and as soon as she sees a hint of danger she will pull away. Jade knew she was totally lying to herself that she would leave if there was any danger. It could not be that bad. Gemma survived all these years and she knew her uncle would never let anyone hurt her.
