Chapter 15
"Pregnant?" Benjamin rubs the back of his neck. "Like in there's a baby growing in you?"
"No, shit! What else what pregnancy be?" Catalina asks sarcastically with a little humor in her voice.
"Are you mad?" Annabel scans his face, with a worried look.
He slowly smiles and puts his hands on her hips. "No. I'm. This is fucking amazing. I'M GONNA BE A DAD!" He shouts out. He kisses Annabel on her forehead. "I love you Annie. It's not gonna be easy raising a kid in this life, but we'll work it out."
Annabel smiles widely. "I love you more, Benny." They passionately kiss.
"Awww. The high school sweet hearts are having a BABY. Congratulations you two." Catalina jumps up from her seat and hugs both Annabel and Benjamin.
Daisy, Dolores and Esai walk in. "Que onda? Did we miss something?" Daisy looks at the three huggers.
"Benny and I are having a baby!" Annabel yells out in excitement.
"WHAT?!"
They congratulate the couple, and step outside as Benjamin starts to spark up a joint. "Time to celebrate. Sorry Annie, you can't have any of this."
"How about we step back inside girls, I have ALOT to talk to y'all about." Catalina motions for the girls to follow her to the living room.
"Aw, Man, but I really wanted to blaze." Dolores pouts as she stomps inside.
"Baby D. Do you want to hear what happened or what?" Daisy asks, as she softly slaps Dolores arm.
"Happened with what?"
"Really, Baby D. Did you not hear that Marcus, has been seeing some girl named AURORA for the past five years. And I caught her in his dorm at the clubhouse." Catalina sits on the couch and looks up at Dolores.
"Aurora? Aurora. Aurora Gomez? Blue eyed girl?" She looks into Catalina's eyes as she cocks her head with questionable eyes.
Catalina and the rest of the girls look at Dolores shockingly. "You know her?" They ask in union.
"Ummm. Yea. I mean I seen her a few times. My mom had mentioned her before, too. But it's been about... Two, Three years since I've last seen her. " She simply shrugs her shoulders as she sits next to Catalina. "She's back in the picture?"
"Wait, wait, wait. Your mom knows her? How?"
"My mom use to hang out at the clubhouse. I heard her talking to Esai's mom about her. If I'm not mistaking they were talking about, Aurora being Alvarez mistress, and how she was a homewrecker. But in all honesty my mom was only backing up Esai's mom. Gloria, because she was trying to get in bed with Alvarez. I guess Aurora beat her at it. My mom's a whore."
Catalina takes all the information in and sits in silence for a moment. "How come you never mentioned it before?"
"Like I said it's been a few years since I seen Aurora. A few months after the divorce, she disappeared. That's why I'm asking, if she's come back or what?"
"She was never gone. I mean she moved to Lodi but Marcus never stopped seeing her."
"But. He must've not have seen her for AT LEAST SIX MONTHS OR SO. Because last I heard, NO ONE NOT EVEN ALVAREZ KNEW ABOUT HER WHEREABOUTS. At least that's what I heard from my mom."
"How come I never saw her?" Daisy cuts in the conversation.
"I was always hanging out at Patti's house. Alvarez is her neighbor. Aurora would show up at his place from time to time. I'm talking about HIS house where he grew up, his mama's house. May doña Alvarez rest in peace. She was a badass cook."
"He would invite her to his childhood home? I haven't even gone there." Catalina growing more and more outraged at Alvarez gets up and begins to pace around the living room. "I'm gonna have to talk to her again. Seems like there's so much more that I need to know."
"You should calm down, Gata. Tell us what happened when you went to talk to her. What is she like?" Annabel asks as she shuffles around in her seat.
"Ugh." Catalina flops back down in her seat and begins to tell the girls the story.
As the girls are gossiping inside, Outside Esai's phone rings. He pulls is out his kutte pocket and flips it open. "Sup, jefito (dad)" He nods as he listens to Alvarez and looks at Benjamin. He quickly hangs up. "Let's roll, Niners, showed up at the clubhouse."
...Lodi...
"Lina." Aurora walks up her friend.
Her friend turns around and faces her, as he puts his hand on his chest, and very femininely shakes his free hand in front of her face. "Girl, you almost gave me a heart attack. I received your text message, girl. What kind of man are you messing with? Is he cute?"
"Not now Lina. This is serious. So can i stay over at your place or not?"
He nervously looks at Aurora and walks behinds his desk. "I don't know, girl. Your baby daddy sounds dangerous. He scares me, and I don't even know him, girl." He pouts as he sits down in his 'queen' chair.
"Please, Lina. I promise nothing is going to happen to you. I won't even be there that loung enough. I just need a few weeks to get some money together for me and my daughter to leave town and start fresh. PLEASE." Aurora looks at Lina with puppy eyes as she puts her hands together as if to be praying.
"Okay girl. Only cause I love little Victoria, but I must worn you her dad better not try to hurt me. This face of mine is priceless."
"THANK YOU, THANK YOU!" Aurora hugs Lina tightly and kisses his cheek several times. "I owe you BIG TIME!"
Lina giggles and waves her off. "Get to work, girl. Before Roger sees you talking to me and not working that pole."
"Okay." Aurora quickly runs to the stage and gets to work.
"Didn't see you here last night, baby girl. Where you take off to?" A familiar male voice catches Aurora's attention.
She turns in his direction and smiles. "T.O!" She walks over to him and gives him a hug. "Where have you been? It's been a while since you've come to this place."
"Club business has been keeping me busy these days. How you been?"
"I've had better days." She shrugs as she walks T.O and his crew to a table. "I prefer not to talk about it."
He looks at her with concerned eyes. "Are you sure? You know you can count on me."
"I know and I thank you, for being such a good friend, but I've had a long day. Has me a bit drained so I rather just leave it alone."
"T.O, my brotha!" A man voice booms out from across the club. It's none other than Clay and the rest of SAMCRO. They walk up to the Grimm Bastards and all the man over crowd Aurora as they all greet one another.
"What's your name doll?" Tig puts his arm around Aurora.
She smiles and gently brushes his arm away. "I'm Beba or baby."
He smiles at her perversely "Oh, Baby." He grabs her hips. "Tiggy likes you."
"Let the girl go, Tig." Chibs pulls him away. "Don't mind him lass, he's a little... special."
"Oh, please. He's an ANIMAL!" Bobby chuckles. "How you doing sweet heart? I'm Bobby and this is Chibs."
Aurora extends her hand out and shakes their hand. "You can call me Baby and don't worry I deal with men like him on a nightly basis."
"It's sure nice to meet you BABY." Chibs winks at Aurora causing her to blush.
At that moment Juice comes crashing into Aurora causing them both to fall, with him ending on top of her. "Oh. Ummm. I'm. I'm so sorry." He looks into her eyes and is completely mesmerized by them. "I'm. I'm... Juice." He flashes her his big smile.
"Get off of her, juicy boy." Chibs pulls Juice up and off of Aurora.
Jax quickly helps Aurora up. "He's an idiot. I'm Jax by the way."
Aurora observes herself and then looks at Jax and laughs "I'm baby, and it's all good I'm okay."
Juice walks over to her. "I'm really. Really sorry."
She smiles at him and rubs his head. "It's okay, Juice. I'm not broken." She giggles. "But just for that, you owe me a drink."
"Sure!" He smiles back at her as they lock eyes and gaze at each other for a few minutes. "We should totally get those drinks." Juice manages to speak up.
Aurora snaps out of her trance. "Um. Yea, yea, yea. Let's go to the bar."
...oAkLaNd...
Shots are heard in front of the Mayans clubhouse. Where war against the Niners has escalated. Police sirens are heard from a distance and Niners and Mayans both begin to flee the scene, leaving bodies behind and a bloody parking lot. Alvarez leads his club to an empty dirt road. As he shuts off his engine he pulls out his phone and calls Aurora to no avail. "Shit!" He quickly sends her a text and revs up his bike again and rolls out with the rest of the Mayans following close behind.
Meanwhile back at Benjamin's house...
Benjamin and Esai run in the house. "Party is over girls. Gata and Annie y'all are coming with us. Daisy and Baby D I suggest y'all run home. Now! Go! Go!"
The girls begin to run around frantically and ask questions. "What's going on? What happened?"
"There's no time to explain we have to hurry!" Benjamin grabs Annabel's hand and runs to his bike. "Get on."
"C'mon Gata, we must hurry, before the cops show up." Esai hops on his bike and hands Catalina a helmet.
"Cops?" She quickly jumps on the back as Esai brings his bike to life.
"Everything will be explained once we get to, Lodi."
"Lodi?"
Catalina's P.O.V
With my heart pounding at a hundred miles pair hour, and hundreds questions running through my mind as well as a bad feeling in the pit of my stomach, the one question I cared about... Is where's Marcus? Could something have happened to him? Why were we going to Lodi? And does Aurora know?
Shit! Aurora, the baby! I must text her to give her a heads up. But are we going to her house? Ugh! What the fuck is going on?! This day has been a long day and now it seems like it's going to be an even longer night.
What the hell did I sign up for? This club life ain't for the weak! That's about the only thing I know at the moment.
