Clay went into the under-construction Cigar shop, Tig at his side. Jax, Chibs, Juice, and Op sat outside, waiting for Clay to finish explaining how things worked to the newbie inside.
Leaning against their bikes, the men waited. Jax straightened a little bit when three guys slowed near the front of the shop, looking at the Sons with defensive interest. So the Sons became defensive right back.
"Can we help you with something?" the leader of the trio spoke up, stepping forward. So Jax took a step, "You new here?" he asked, motioning his head towards the shop. The man turned his head.
That was when Chibs stepped forward, "Nice tatt," he said. Jax found what Chibs was referring to and suddenly took hold of the man in front of him, slamming him up against the brick wall, "You son of a bitch!" he called.
Chibs and Op stepped forward to pull him off the man. Chibs knew they would all like nothing more than to beat this man to a pulp and more than likely kill him…but they couldn't do it in the town square.
"You better watch it," the man straightened out his shirt and he and his cronies disappeared into the cigar shop.
"I'll get you asshole! Let me go, Op! He did it! He hurt Kylie and Abel!"
"We know," Op said, hovering around Jax in case he needed to hold him back, "But you know this can't go down in Charming…"
Jax' nostrils flared.
"Just go- go see Kylie…get out of here…we'll meet back at the clubhouse and discuss what to do tonight…we'll get him, Jax…" Opie continued.
