A/N: I'm sorry this is chapter is way shorter than the others. I really struggled writing this. It actually took me five attempts and a day away from my laptop to get it done and I still done think it's perfect but I did try. Please read and review, let me know what you think.


CHAPTER NINE: It's Over.

"Where the fuck have you been?!" Jesse glared as she walked through their hotel room door. She'd spent over an hour at the cemetery in front of her parents headstone. She'd gone there after leaving her boyfriend stranded at the clubhouse. After visiting her parents she went for a long drive to no where in particular.

She put her handbag, phone and keys on the small coffee table in between the couch and TV. "I went to see my mom."

"Your mom is dead."

"Thanks for reminding me, I almost forgot." She rolled her eyes, a sarcastic tone evident in her voice.

"How do I know you didn't go back to that lame clubhouse to see that loser you call a friend?"

"The clubhouse isn't lame and Jax is not a loser." She went to walk into the bathroom. He grabbed her arm tightly, pulling her back hard.

"Don't walk away from me."

She looked at him, frowning. "I need to use the bathroom."

His grip tightened making her wince. She was going to have another bruise on her arm. "I don't care. You can use the bathroom after we sort this shit out."

"There is nothing to sort out."

"Just because you stood up for me ba-"

"I didn't stand up for you, I saved your fuckin' ass and it wasn't out of love. You're not worth Jax getting his hands bloody for." She spat at him. He let go of her arm, bringing his hand up and backhanded her hard across her face, his ring cutting her cheek. She raised her hand to the cut and pulled it away. She frowned at him seeing blood. She grabbed a shirt that was close by and pressed it to her cheek. Her rage was starting to build up. The night before, Chibs had talked to her and told her the Lacey he knew wouldn't put up with anyone's bullshit. He was right. She'd been putting up with Jesse's possessive and jealous ways since they started dating. She'd been dealing with his verbal and physical abuse for just over a month. "I want you gone by the time I get back."

"You're not leaving me!" He grabbed her by the arm again. Her rage bubbled over. She swung her fist back and drove it forward making it connect with his eye. He howled in pain as his hands flew to his face.

"Don't ever fuckin' tou-" he sentenced was quickly ended when she found herself gasping for air. Jesse had a large rough hand around her neck.

"You think you're tough because you have your pathetic family here?" he pulled her closer, getting in her face. He pushed her on the floor as he let go of her throat. She lifted a hand to her throat and rubbed where he'd grabbed her as she caught her breath. "You're just as pathetic as them. This town has made me realize just how worthless you are, and we've only been here two days. You're nothing more than a selfish, inconsiderate, lying biker whore."

"No, you fucked the biker whore last night." Her voice was a little hoarse.

"And she was so much better than you." he smirked crouching down to her level.

"Is that supposed to offend me. I'd be surprised she felt your tiny dick inside her."

Anger flashed through his eyes as he pulled her up onto her feet and slapped her across the face. The blood from her cut was starting to dry. She tried to ignore the stinging sensation on the left side of her face as she glared at him.

"You want to know what Jax meant when he said what he did?" She paused to see if he'd answer. He only glared back at her. "Something happened between us that brought out some feelings but I was stupid and turned him down." She could see Jesse's jaw clench. "There is one more thing," she paused letting a smirk cross her features as she leaned in closer to him, feeling the adrenaline in her body start to take over. "It was only one time but he fucked me better than you ever did."

Fire burned in his eyes as he grabbed her hair and pulled her head back before knocking her to the ground. He smacked her in the face, busting her lip open. He grabbed her by the throat once more and slammed her against the closest wall. Lacey laughed spitting blood into his face. "You just signed your death warrant asshole."

Jesse punched in the stomach winding her before knocking her back over the head four times, sending her into a haze. She collapsed on the floor still holding her stomach. She closed her eyes while she heard shuffling and a door slamming. Still trying to stay conscious she crawled over to the coffee table and grabbed her phone, she pressed the speed dial button for the person she wanted.

She could slowly feel herself drifting in and out of unconsciousness when his gruff voice answered. She gave a small smile thankful he answered. His name was all she managed to get out before darkness surrounded her.
