Once again don't own any of Mr. Sutter's characters just my own.
Elizabeth slowly opened her eyes. She felt an arm around her holding her against a warm body. Slowly she managed to climb out from his arms without waking him up. The room was light enough that she could see without having to open the blinds. She located her clothes and bag and then rushed to the bathroom to shower.
She let the water run over her as she tried to figure out what the hell had gotten into her last night. She never slept with bikers, especially not Sons. But he was so cute and the things he had been doing with his hands. She shivered at the memory. He was going to freak out when he found out who she was.
She got ready for the day in the bathroom and packed everything back into her bag before she opened the bathroom door. He was staring at her from the bed.
"Morning," he said smiling as he sat up.
"Hi," she said keeping her distance. "So listen no one can know about what happened between us last night."
"You embarrassed about me?" he asked standing up.
"No," she said as she made her way to the door. "You just... Might not want anyone to know."
"Well can I have a goodbye kiss before you pretend don't exist?" he asked as he pulled on his underwear. Elizabeth sighed dropping her bag and walking towards him. She let her lips meet his and he wrapped his arms around her pulling her against his chest. She broke the kiss and shoved against him.
"Stay in here for a while and last night did not happen," she said as she opened the door and slid out. She closed the door quietly and spun around to come face to face with Chibs.
"Lizzie?" he asked staring at her. She smiled at him. "What are you doing in Juicie's room?" he asked and then his gaze seemed to fix on her lips. She slapped her hand over his mouth as realization dawned in his eyes.
"It's not what you think!" she hissed at him. "And no one can know. Promise me Chiby, promise me!"
"I won't tell a soul… Didja tell 'im who you were?" he asked.
"EeeeeeSortof," she said as she walked away from the door.
"So no then," said Chibs as he started to laugh. "He's gonna shite himself when he finds out."
"I think right now he's too taken with me to do much shiting," she said as they started to walk down the hallway. "I mean honestly it's like I'm in high school again the way he's making me act. But God damn it he is hot."
"I'll take your word for that lassie, frankly I think he looks like a pigs arse," laughed Chibs.
"Remember not a word, brother and mommy dearest are not fans of me and bikers in case you don't remember," she said, Chibs mimed zipping his lips and then rushed in front of her.
"Boys, look what I found on my way from the can," he said as Elizabeth walked into the room.
"Is that Lizzie?" asked Tig his mouth dropping open.
"The one and only princess of Samcro," laughed Chibs.
"What are you doing here girl?" said Bobby Elvis as all the men came in to give her hugs.
"When brother calls I return," she said as she delivered hugs all around. "I got in late last night so I didn't want to wake anyone; I just crashed in one of the empty rooms."
"I'm sorry I still don't know who she is," said a man behind the bar with a prospect vest on.
"Half-Sack meet the other Teller child," said Tig throwing an arm around his shoulders. "Elizabeth Emma Teller."
"At your service," she said miming a curtsy.
"Does Gemma know you're here?" asked Bobby.
"I don't think so," Elizabeth made a face.
"Good luck," laughed Bobby patting her on the back.
"Yeah you're not going to spring yourself on her here are you?" asked Tig.
"I wasn't planning on it no," Elizabeth resituated her bag on her shoulder. "I was going to head over there right now actually." Juice chose that moment to appear from the hallway pulling a shirt on, Elizabeth felt herself go slightly weak in the knees at the glimpse of his abs she got. Christ what was wrong with her.
"Hey guys what's going on?" he asked.
"We were just welcoming back the prodigal daughter," said Chibs hiding a smile.
"Huh?" he stared blankly around at everyone.
"This is Gemma's other kid, Elizabeth Teller," said Tig.
"No Gemma had Jax and Thomas," said Juice staring at Elizabeth in shock.
"And me," said Elizabeth. "I just ran away right after high school so she doesn't talk about me much."
"You're Gemma's kid," he stared at her in shock.
"I am," she smiled; he stared at her mouth agape. "So I'm gonna go visit mom then." She turned and walked out of the clubhouse.
"Hey wait," said Juice starting to follow her.
"I wouldn't if I were you," said Bobby, "she is already claimed by someone in this club."
Elizabeth walked into her mother's house slowly and looked around. It was different than she remembered and yet the same. The smell was familiar and flooded her with memories of her youth and her father.
"Hello," she called as she set her bag down on the table. "Anyone home?"
"Who's there?" said her mother coming around the corner.
"Hi mom," said Elizabeth standing in the kitchen feeling sheepish.
"Lizzie," her mother stared at her. "What are you doing here?" she asked rushing into the kitchen and embracing her daughter.
"Jacky called," she said letting her mother envelope her in the love that only she could give.
"He knew where you were?" said Gemma stepping back.
"Of course, I can't keep secrets from him," Elizabeth smiled a little.
"Why didn't he tell me, we looked for you after you ran off," said Gemma leading Elizabeth to sit at the table. "We stopped after the third letter saying you were okay. I knew you didn't want to be found, I knew you didn't want this life."
"After daddy died," Elizabeth felt her voice catch in her throat but swallowed it down. "It was just too hard to be here in this house and in this town with all the memories." Gemma nodded slowly. "How's Clay?" she asked. "I didn't see him at the club house so I figured he'd be here with you."
"He's taking a shower," said her mother.
"I'm sorry I ran away," said Elizabeth quietly. "I know it hurt you, I just… I couldn't stand it here anymore."
"It's in the past sweetheart," said Gemma patting her hand. "The important thing is you're here now with family where you belong. Hopefully you're not planning on leaving any time soon."
"I brought everything I own with me," said Elizabeth motioning to her bag.
"I'll get the guest room ready for you," said Gemma standing up.
"If it's okay mom, I'd rather stay at the club house. Lots of memories here, it's kind of overwhelming," Elizabeth said with a sad smile.
"Well," Gemma thought for a moment. "I guess that's fine too, but at some point we're moving you into the guest bedroom, I won't have you living with all those men for too long." Elizabeth laughed.
"Gemma is someone here?" asked Clay walking into the kitchen.
"Hi Clay," said Elizabeth with a little wave of her hand.
"Lizzie-Lizzie," said Clay with wide eyes. She had a memory of the man tossing her up in the air when she was very small and the feeling of his scratchy face on her cheek and he gave her a sloppy kiss that made her giggle.
"In the flesh," she stood up and let the man look her over and then embrace her.
"What the hell are you doing here?" he asked laughing as he looked over her head at Gemma who mouthed "Jax".
"Jacky called, said it was important for me to come home," said Elizabeth. "When brother dear calls I return."
"She wants to stay at the club house for a while," said Gemma. "I told her that was fine for a while but eventually I want her moving back in here to the guest room."
"Of course darlin'," said Clay smirking. "You were always more at home there than anywhere else." Elizabeth nodded.
"Sorry for the quick exit but there are a few people who I haven't seen yet, Jacky being one of them," said Elizabeth making her way over to her bag.
"Is the other Opie?" asked Gemma with a smirk.
"Probably," said Elizabeth putting her bag back on her shoulders and then giving her mother and Clay a quick kiss before heading out the door.
