...Chapter 3...
A little bit later, Amanda's phone rang. She didn't recognize the number, but she answered it anyway. "Hello?"
"Is this Amanda?"
"This is she... who's this?"
"It's Jessica, what the fuck did you do to my brother?"
Amanda smirked. "I... didn't do anything, he brought it upon himself, thinking it'd be okay to hit me with my brothers nearby."
"Well, maybe if you weren't acting like such a bitch the other night, he wouldn't have hit you."
Amanda laughed. "Yeah, riiiiiiiight." seconds later, Opie walked up to her with a curious look on his face. "Look, Joseph deserved getting his ass kicked, he shouldn't have laid a finger on me... so now that him and I are over, you can just stop calling me or I'll come back and beat the shit out of you." then Amanda hung up her phone and giggled.
Opie sat down next to Amanda on the picnic table and gave her a fresh beer. "Here."
"Thanks, how'd you know I needed a refill?"
"I kinda had a feeling you did, being alone out here for a while... so what was that about?"
"Joseph's sister talking shit." she looked at the ground. "Blaming me for him getting his ass kicked." she looked back up at Opie and shrugged. "I really don't care anymore, I've been meaning to break up with him anyway."
"How long were you with him?"
"Almost a year... which was a waste of my time." she chuckled. "Ten and a half months of my life, I'll never get back."
"Yeah, I hear ya." Opie nodded. "Just me being in Chino, I'll never get those five years back either."
"Damn... so how are you adjusting?"
"I'm fine, I got a job at the mill."
"How's Donna and the kids?"
"They're okay... Kenny and Ellie are a little distant, but I expected that."
"And Donna?"
"Oh, you know, she doesn't want me to have anything to do with the club."
"Of course she don't." Amanda nodded. "I'm sure one of these days, she'll come around."
"Yeah, maybe... but what if she doesn't?"
"Um." Amanda sat there thinking of what to say. "I can't answer that, Ope... I'm not her."
"Yeah." Opie locked eyes with Amanda and smiled. "You're not."
She opened her mouth to say something, but nothing came out. Seconds later, Jax walked up to them. "What are you two doing out here?"
"Just talking." Amanda shrugged. "What are you doing?"
"Enjoying the party, like you should be."
"I am... I'm just taking a break."
Jax rolled his eyes. "Whatever, Manda." he smacked Opie on his arm. "You coming, Man?"
"Yeah." he nodded, then smiled at Amanda before walking back into the clubhouse with Jax.
Ten minutes later, Amanda saw Holly stumbing out the door, walking up to her. "Manda!" she yelled. "What are you doing out here?"
"Just thinking."
"Well, Young Lady, I've been told to fetch you."
"Fetch me?" Amanda laughed. "You seriously need to lay off the liquor."
"But I'm having fun... it is a party, Silly Girl."
"So, what's going on in there?"
"Me and Tig." Holly giggled. "Were doing body shots off of each other."
"Great." Amanda rolled her eyes. "Just be careful, being around Tig."
"Oh, I'll be fine." Holly waved her arm.
"All right, did you happen to find out where we're staying?"
"I don't know about you, but I'm crashing in Tig's room." she paused. "You can stay with Opie."
"As much as I'd like that, I can't... he'll probably be going home to his wife and kids."
"What if he doesn't?"
"He will, I mean, it's not like he loves me or wants anything to do with me... that was all in the past."
"Damn, Manda.. you have a major jones for him."
"Yeah, well, it doesn't really matter." she shrugged. "I should just find me a new man."
"Okay." Holly shrugged. "We'll go shopping for one tomorrow."
Amanda laughed out loud. "All righty, then."
Out of the corner of Holly's eye, she saw Opie storming out towards them. "Oh, shit.. Manda, I'm so so so sorry in advance."
"For what?"
Opie stood in front of Amanda, glaring at her. "When the hell were you gonna tell me?"
Amanda looked confused. "Tell you what?"
"That you were pregnant and lost the baby."
Amanda frowned, looking at Holly. "See why you need to lay off the liquor, you fucking loud mouth."
"I'm sorry." Holly shook her head. "It just came out."
"What the fuck ever." Amanda rolled her eyes.
"Holly." Opie started. "Can you give us a minute?" she nodded and walked away, then Opie turned his attention to Amanda. "So when were you gonna tell me?"
"I don't know... I didn't know how, then after you went into Chino, because of Kyle, I lost it."
"What?" his eyes widened. "What'd he do?"
"He tried sleeping with me, but I was fighting him, then I rolled down a flight of stairs, because he pushed me." she looked down. "And I lost our baby."
Opie took a deep breath, then lifted Amanda's face with his fingers. "Do you want to get out of here?"
"What? Where?"
"It don't matter... anywhere."
"Yeah, okay." she nodded. "Because if I see Holly right now, I'm gonna smack her drunk ass."
Opie helped Amanda off the picnic table, then both of them got on his bike, and rode out of the parking lot.
