…Chapter Two…
After the girls left In & Out Burger, Nicole pulled into T - M, and parked her 2011 Dodge Challenger in her usual spot. As she was about to get out, she noticed a weird look on Megan's face. "What?"
"I thought we were going out to lunch, you know… sit down somewhere? And why did you buy so much food?"
"Wow, it has been a long time since you've been here, Silly Girl." Nicole chuckled. "We will be sitting down to eat, it'll just be here at the clubhouse, and as for the superior eats, besides ours, is for the guys in the garage."
"Oh, that makes sense."
"Come on." Nicole said, before getting out of her car.
After Megan got out, she noticed that Nicole was carrying a few bags and a tray of drinks. "What about the rest of the food?"
"The Prospects can get it."
"Okay." Megan laughed, then both of them walked into the clubhouse, and set the bags on the bar counter.
"Philly!" Nicole called out, then Filthy Phil walked out of the hallway. "I need a favor, Sir."
"What is it?"
"I bought all of the guys some lunch, can you get it out of my car, and pass it out?"
"Sure." he nodded.
"Don't give any to Chibs, Ope, Chucky, or Kozik… I have theirs right here."
"Okay." Filthy Phil said, before walking outside.
"Where…" Nicole looked around. "Where the hell is everybody?"
Seconds later, the guys walked in and stopped, seeing a woman they've never seen before in their clubhouse. "Who's this, Nic?"
"Be nice, Ope, or you get no yummy goodness I bought, besides, I'm pretty sure that all of you, except for Chucky and Kozik, knows who this is."
"Aye." Chibs nodded. "You look familiar."
"The one that guesses right, can have their food… ready? Go!"
"Uh." Opie shrugged. "I don't know." he looked at that woman with his eyebrow raised. "Well, who are you?"
"It's me, Megan." she smiled. "Nicole's little sister."
Then all of a sudden, Chibs scooped her in a hug. "Wow, it's been a long time."
"Yep." she said, letting go.
"My turn." Opie gave her a hug and let go. "So, where you been?"
"Las Vegas."
"When'd you get here?" Chibs nudged her.
"A little while ago."
"Right on." Opie turned his attention to Nicole. "Nic, which one is mine?"
"Doesn't matter." she waved her hand. "Just grab one."
Both Chibs and Opie grabbed their food and drinks, then walked out, and Kozik scoffed. "Nic, aren't you going to introduce us to your sister?"
"I was going to." she playfully rolled her eyes. "Sis, this impatient man chop with the rooster hair 'do, is Kozik, and this one with the weird looking fingers, is Chucky."
"I accept that." Chucky nodded, with a smile.
"Guys, this is my sister, Megan."
"Nice to meet you." she smiled at them.
"Ditto." Kozik winked, grabbing his bag and a drink. "Thanks, Nicola." he gave her a kiss on the cheek. "You're the best." then he headed out the door.
"Okay, Chucky, my buddy." Nicole pointed to one of the bags. "This one is yours."
"Thanks, Nicole."
"You're welcome." she smiled, then grabbed the remaining bags, and drinks. "Let's go sit down."
Megan nodded, and followed Nicole over to the couch. "Wow, I missed Opie." both of them sat down. "How's Donna?"
Nicole froze and slowly looked up at her sister. "Uh…"
"What?" Megan raised her eyebrow. "What is it?"
"Okay, there's a lot that has happened, especially, in the past three years or so."
"A lot of bad things?"
"Oh, yeah." Nicole took out her burger and fries out of the bag, and after she took a deep breath, she explained to Megan what happened - starting from when Opie got busted and got sent to Chino for five years - to half of the club in Stockton Prison for a weapons charge for fourteen months, plus everything else in between.
By the time Nicole was finished, both of them were done with their food, but Megan was sitting there in a daze, letting everything marinate in her brain. "Shit." she shook her head. "I can't believe it."
"Me either." Nicole took a sip of her drink. "But I lived through all of it."
"Okay." Megan started. "Let's talk about something else… when will the guys be released?"
"On Saturday… two more days until I see my man." Nicole smiled.
"So, do you have the infamous crow?"
"Actually, I do." Nicole pulled her shirt down. "Same spot as Gemma's, but mine is a little different. Juice has two tattoos on the sides of his head, and right here." she pointed at it on her chest. "The same ones are in between the crows claws."
"It looks awesome." Megan studied it for a second, then leaned back on the couch. "When'd you get it?"
"I officially became Juice's Old Lady in '06, so about five years." Nicole chuckled. "I love that computer geek goofball and I miss the shit out of him."
"You'll see him in two more days."
"I know." Nicole nodded. "But to me, this week has been going super slow." she took a drink of her soda. "Anyways, what exactly did you bring with you?"
"I just packed one bag."
"Okay." Nicole took out her cell phone and looked at it. "We got some time before we have to be at Gemma's… do you want to go shopping for some stuff?"
"Yeah, because there's a few things I need."
Nicole stood up. "Let's go, but first, I have to tell the Warden that I'm leaving, because last time I didn't, and I got bitched at."
"Okay, but who's the Warden?" Megan asked, as they walked outside.
"Before the guys got locked up, Juice gave Kozik direct orders to keep an eye on me, like a hawk, and he has. Some days he would be cool and other days, he would just annoy the shit out of me, but it's not like I could do anything about it, Old Lady's are supposed to follow orders and do what they're told."
"Yeah, I get it." Megan nodded.
"Hey, Kozik!" Nicole called out. "Kozik!"
"What?" he slid out from under the car he was working on. "What's up?"
"My sister and I are going shopping."
"Alright, take a Prospect with you." Kozik paused, as he got up and cleaned his greasy hands with a rag. "No… actually I'll go with you. I need some stuff."
"What does this stuff consist of?"
"Nic, you know." he shrugged. "Man stuff."
Nicole raised her eyebrow and crossed her arms over her chest. "Define: man stuff."
"Some jell for my hair, toothpaste, razors… shit like that."
"You know, Kozik, you're worse than a damn woman." Nicole laughed, shaking her head. "Come on." then as her and Megan got into the Challenger, Kozik got on his bike, and followed behind them.
...
"So." Megan started, as they were looking through the women's clothes. "Has Mom or Dad ever asked about me?"
"Not really." Nicole shook her head. "When you were gone, they knew you were never coming back, so they didn't bother trying, because they knew it was pointless."
"Oh."
"I mean, what could we do? You never returned any of my phone calls or texts, plus we didn't even know where you were."
"Well." Megan pushed the cart. "I regret it now, even after all that shit that went down."
"Shit happens." Nicole shrugged. "You can't change the past. What's done is done, but I'm sure you can make up the time you lost."
"Yeah, I will."
"Hey, Nic." Kozik walked up to them, carrying a bunch of stuff, then he dropped it all in the cart.
"What is all of this shit?"
"Relax, Nic, it's just a few things I need."
"A few? Really? What the hell is this for? You don't have a cat."
Kozik took the can of food out of her hand and put it back in the cart. "I could have a cat."
Nicole laughed, shaking her head. "Well, did you get everything you need? Or do you need more cat food?"
"Nah." he waved his hand. "I'm good."
Nicole looked at Megan. "You ready?"
"Uh - huh."
"Okay." Nicole nodded. "Let's pay for this and get back to the house." then the three of them walked over to the check out line.
...
"Kozik." Nicole sat down in the recliner. "Get out of the fridge."
"Gladly." he scoffed. "There's nothing in here anyway."
"Gee, I wonder why… maybe if you stop eating up my whole kitchen."
"Nic." he grabbed a beer and sat down next to Megan on the couch. "That's a bit of a stretch, don't you think? I didn't eat everything."
"Riiiiiiight." she rolled her eyes. "Then where did all my food go?"
"Maybe Ope or Chibs at it."
"Yeah, I bet." Nicole glanced at Megan. "We'll go grocery shopping in the morning."
"That's fine." she nodded, going through the stuff she bought.
"Wait, how early are you going?"
"Too early for you, Kozik." Nicole laughed.
"No, seriously, what time?"
"I don't know." Nicole shrugged. "Probably before nine."
"Why? Is that too early for you?"
Kozik glanced at Megan. "Of course not… because I will make sure that I go with both of you in the morning."
"Well, just in case you don't make it, and you sleep through it, I'll ask Chibs to go."
Kozik stared at Nicole for a second. "I'll be there, Nicola."
"You better… and if not." she paused to think, then looked at him with an evil grin. "You have to eat that cat food."
"Ugh." he made a face. "That's disgusting, Nic."
"Well then, show up in the morning, and you don't have to eat it."
"That sounds fair."
Kozik glared at Megan a second before turning his attention back to Nicole. "Okay, deal, but it's not gonna happen, because I will be there."
"Yeah, yeah, yeah." Nicole waved her hand. "We'll see."
"Yes, we will see." Kozik stood up and headed for the door. "I need a smoke, you bitches are driving me nuts."
"Oh, don't be a baby!" Nicole laughed, as Kozik slammed the door.
"Do you think he'll show?"
"Nope." Nicole shook her head. "Not a chance."
