Hello everyone I do not own SOA … I only own My little flower.
As they pulled into the shop she quickly jumped off the bike and handed her helmet back to Jax. She taken our surroundings she noticed a small garage with a few guys working on cars and bikes. As Jax tapped her on her shoulder nodded to the clubhouse she noticed a tall guy with crazy eyes giving her a suspicious look as she walked in. Walking through the "clubhouse", she saw an older gentleman sitting at the bar nursing what looked to be Scotch or some kind of dark liquor. He looked grumpy to say the least but when he saw Jax his eyes lit up a bit and he said, "hey there Jackie boy how you doing today? Did you bring home a new lass?".
Jax smiled and said, "not just have to work on science project, teachers being a Dick and he thought it would be better if it worked with someone other than Tara. This is Iris… Iris this is Chibs. "
Iris turned her head to get a better look as she was introduced, she was studying his features she noticed two large scars on either side of his face and a hard look that can only come from a hard life. Holding her hand out as politely as possible she gave a small smile and said, "hello Chibs it's nice to meet you."
Studying her for a second as if he didn't quite believe her politeness he eventually extended his hand to hers and gave her a kiss on top of it while saying, "nice to meet you lass. And I hope Jackie boy don' make you work too hard for the grade."
Chuckling lately she looked over and saw Jax roll his eyes and reply, "she knows what she's getting into already. She knows I haven't opened the book." Chibs laughed as they walked back to what appeared to be a dorm or apartment. Taking scenery she noticed a few things about this room, for one it had to be Jackson's room. Piles of clothes were littered all over the floor some his some clearly not as they were only necessary if you are a woman. A thin layer of dust was over the shelves and a dresser and that displayed that most of the stuff on the dresser was untouched for awhile.
As Jax walked into the bathroom he said, "wait right here, I'll be right back I just got a get change so we can go out to the garage."
She didn't know what to do with yourself so she just stood in the doorway, "if you don't mind I'll go sit out on the couch" hearing a mumbled okay she went back out to the community room of the clubhouse. The man of the crazy eyes has ended up at the bar next to Chibs and was looking at her funny. After about a minute or so he got up and charged straight for.
"what the hell brings a girl like you to a place like this, you some kind of COP?" The man stared at her with burning intensity. Looking back at him with wide eyes she shook her head feverishly and replied, "no I'm Jax's science partner. My name is Iris."
Chibs called over, "hey Tig leave the poor girl alone she's trying to help by Jackie boy graduate high school." The man Chibs had identified as Tig said, "Yeah…. Well you should loosen up a bit. You got rat painted all over your face."
"I'm sorry you make sure to smile a little bit more. I didn't mean to make anybody uncomfortable."
Tig sighed a little and said, "don't worry doll I'm just paranoid can help you know?" He gave a small smile as he walked away.
Jax came out right after Tig left with a smirk on his face and said, "you ready darlin?"
With a nod of the head they set off into the garage. While he started on his first car she sat on a stool next to it and timidly asked, "so I'm not sure how we should go about this but I think in order for us to make a great project, we should definitely play on to our strengths. Your great with automotive skills and him fairly decent at problem solving and eco-friendly solutions, so I think it would be wise to try and find something that would plate both of those strengths. What do you think?"
Stopping what he was doing he sat and thought for a moment and as if a light bulb went off in his head he said, "I think I might just get a passing grade after all… But what I think we should do right now anyways…. Is get to know each other a bit., I mean….. If you're going to be spending a lot of time here I need to know little that about you so I can let the club members know that you're all right…. So….. Tell me about yourself."
Shifting slightly on her stool I responded the question a bit,it's strange to think I actually never been asked this…. What do you say?"okay that sounds fair, I love to read and learn, in the fall after we graduate I plan on attending Lodi community college, I tutor most of the children in charming and the surrounding areas, and I don't get out much." With that last statement her cheeks red and just a bit with embarrassment.
Jax let out a bark of laughter and looked up at her, "darlin' I think we are on opposite ends of the spectrum."
Giggling she smiled genuinely and said, "I could've told you that Jackson. As you stated earlier though you needed to get to know me in order to tell the club members if I was okay….. did I pass? And if it's all right with you I would like to know a little bit about you as well."
Smirking a little wider than normal quickly replied, "darlin' list what you just said you like to do in your free time they might think you're a little odd, but other than that your good."
"It wouldn't be the first time somebody said I was odd" as she looked around the garage she noticed a large stack of magazines in the corner. "Do you think I could borrow some of those two maybe brainstorm a couple ideas while you're working? And come on… your turn"
Laughing he said, " Hate school , love this place. Tara Knowles in my girl, and Opie is my best friend. That's bout it."
"Hopefully we can change the school part, but from the look on your face I doubt it. Can I get those magazines?"
Barking out a laugh he started reaching deeper into the car all she heard was a' you sure'. Taking that as her cue to go get them she walked over and grabbed the stack of magazines off the counter and wanders back over to her seat. Rifling through the first few she noticed they were nothing but although traders and part manuals, at the end of the pile she noticed a motorcycle engine manual. Deciding that was the direction she was, look in she placed the remainder of the magazines back on the cart.
After reading for about a half an hour a light bulb went off in her head. Jumping off of her stool she let out a small yell of excitement. Being surprised at the sudden outburst Jax smacked his head on the roof of the car. Glaring over zero does head he said, "you better have a good reason for that darlin'. I think I just split my wig."
"I'm so sorry I just get excited when I figure out things. They'll be happy to know that I think I figured out what our project should be about. The Sons of anarchy are motorcycle club right? You drive a lot of motorcycles… while I am all about being green and I noticed that nobody really is on the bandwagon for making motorcycle engines eco-friendly. Because we live in California we have a large amount of pollution as of this so if we could figure out a way to make a motorcycle engine put off less emissions around something that isn't as damaging to our ecosystem, then we would have an A for sure"
"that's a crazy idea and I'm not sure if I totally follow what you're saying… but if it involves an engine especially a bike…. Then I'm game." A huge grin crept across to irises face as the idea went over well with the blonde.
"If you would like we could spice it up a bit and try and bring out a few more horses out of the engine as well. I know most guys run a little more bang for their buck anyways."
A ripple of laughter went through the garage is the other mechanics heard her last comment. "You know darlin' it's been a long time since I've actually been excited about something and school. It can take a lot of work to do this. How about we work out a schedule and go from there."
Nodding her head she grabbed out a small purple planar from her backpack. "Let's see….. I to air on Tuesdays and Thursdays…. And Saturday science club… So how about Monday, Wednesday, Friday?"
Jackson lost himself in his thoughts for a second before he replied, "yeah, that sounds good I work on Mondays and Wednesdays so…. You can just hang like you did today and we can work on it from there. Does that work for you?"
Pecking her things together she responded, "of course, it won't bug me a bit to sit around here at least to get out of the house. Besides, I kind of had fun today…. Thank you for that it's been a long time."
Laughing as he wiped his hands off he retorted, "what? Your friends not on the hangout with?"
Her feet altered a bit as she walked away. Turning around with those small pain in her eyes, "I'm not sure if trends are fun to hang out with….. I don't have any."but hopefully this will change that.
Thank you for reading and I hope you like it. Reviews are welcome.
