Chapter 5:

For the past fifteen minutes, Jaydin said her 'hellos' and introduced Renee to everyone. While Renee was chatting with Chibs, Half Sack, and Bobby, Jaydin went to find Opie. As she walked outside, she heard voices coming from the side of the house. It sounded like Clay and Tig, so she got closer and listened.

"What happened to the witness, did you kill him?"

"Jax let her go, Man."

"Her?" Clay kind of yelled.

"It was a seventeen year old girl. Jax gave her some money and told her to leave town."

"Damn it!" Clay yelled, making Jaydin jump a little.

"I think Jax knows." said Tig. "Did you see the way he was looking at us at the funeral?"

"Look... Donna's death was a mistake and you can't go around making those kind of mistakes anymore." Jaydin's eyes widened and she walked away as fast as possible.

She walked back in the house, then Renee went up to her. "Hey... you have a weird look on your face, what's wrong?"

"Just upset about Donna." she said, biting her lip. "I... need to go out to my car real quick, you go mingle."

"All righty then." Renee laughed, then walked back over to Chibs.

Tears were falling down Jaydin's face by the time she got to her car. A few seconds later, she heard footsteps behind her followed by "Jay?"

She turned around. "What... Juice?"

"What's wrong?"

"Nothing, I'm fine."

He shook his head. "You don't look fine and I think I remember the way you look when something is bothering you." he leaned up against her car and grabbed her arm, pulling her into his chest. As he put his arms around her, she started to sob.

"Why did she have to die?" she paused. "Donna didn't deserve this, Juice."

"I know, Babe." he said, rubbing her back. "We'll find whoever did this."

She backed up to look at him. "You guys... don't know?"

He shook his head. "There was a witness, but all he saw was the dark SUV, not who was driving it."

"Oh." she nodded, then rested her head in the crook of Juice's neck and continued crying. Five minutes later, her phone rang.

"When I'm with you I'll make every second count 'cause I miss you. Whenever you're not around. When I kiss you I'll still get butterflies years from now. I'll make every second count when I'm with you."

Jaydin dug it out of her pocket and looked up at Juice. "I have to take this."

"The boyfriend?" she nodded and he shook his head. "You really need to change that ringtone, but what the fuck ever." then he walked back in the house.

She took a deep breath, then pressed the talk button. "Hello?"

"Hey."

"Hey... Conner." she paused. "What's up?"

"What's going on?"

"I'm over at my friend Opie's house... we just got back from the funeral."

"Oh." he was silent for a minute, until he spoke again. "When are you coming home?"

"Um... I don't know, there's a few things I need to take care of."

"Like what?"

"Stuff for my mom and my... brother."

"You have a brother?"

"Yeah."

"You never told me."

"I never told Renee either." she looked up and saw Jax walking. "I gotta go, I'll talk to you later." then she hung up as Jax walked up to her.

"So what are you doing here?" he asked her.

"Donna was my best friend... why wouldn't I be here?"

"How long are you staying?"

"I was only staying a few days, but I've decided to stay a little longer."

"Why?"

She sighed. "There's a few things I need to figure out." she smirked. "Did you miss me?"

"Not really."

"Doubt it, Jax... you may hate me or whatever, but I know deep down you love me."

He shook his head. "Where you staying?"

"Um... at the motel." he slightly nodded. "So." she paused. "How's Abel?"

"He's fine."

"Okay... sorry I asked."

He groaned. "Look, sorry about the way I was when I opened the door. I wasn't expecting you to even be here and everything else going on... you were in the line of fire."

"Oh... what exactly is going on?"

He got closer to whisper. "I think I know who killed Donna."

"Who?"

"I can't tell you."

"Okay." she nodded. "But... what if I already know?"

His eyes widened. "Get in the car, now!" seconds later, both of them got into her car. "You need to tell me what you know."

"First tell me you love me and you're sorry for being an asshole to me."

He glared at her. "Fine... I love you, Jay."

"And.."

"And I'm sorry... now tell me what you know."

"All right, but I don't forgive you for being such a dick to me long ago." she sighed, seeing the impatient look on his face.. "Fine, I'll tell you." then she told Jax what she heard Clay and Tig talking about.


"I don't think this is gonna work, Angie... I mean, you better have a good plan."

"I do, Baby." she nodded. "Don't worry."

"Shit... I didn't know she had a brother."

"Really? Well, what do you know about her life?"

"Not much." he shrugged.

"Well, find out... somehow, like who she used to date." Conner glanced at her with a glare. "You need to find out, so my plan can work, and we bring her back to Vegas."

"Fine." he told her, then turned up the radio and rolled up his window.

"We're almost there." she said, looking at the map.


Jax opened the car door and said "You better not say anything to anyone about what we just talked about." she nodded. "Until I figure out what to do."

"I won't say nothing."

"Good... not even Opie or your friend." he paused. "Even Juice."

"Jax, for the last fucking time... I won't."

He nodded. "Do you want to see Abel later?"

"Sure."

"Okay, after this is over with... I'll take you to my place."

"Or I can follow you, this is my car."

He rolled his eyes. "Fine."

"Since we're in here, confined in this tiny space, with nobody around... can I ask you a question?"

"It depends on the question."

She groaned. "Never mind, Asshole."

He chuckled. "What is it?"

"Forget it now."

"Whatever." he shook his head. "Come on." she nodded, then they got out of the car and went back into the house.
