Perfect Life Chapter 3
Chapter title: Fight to forget
A/N: Hey everyone! Thank you all so much for your kind reviews, and thanks for all the follows, favourites and views, 400 views on the first two chapters, not bad at all guys. I'm really enjoying writing this story since I'm just in love with the show right now, btw I know that I'm following the episodes of season 2 really closely but the reason for this is that I want you all to see the type of character that Chase is, and the easiest way to do so is to put her in situations that we have seen so you get a feel for how she interacts with the others and what role she plays within the group. Don't worry though, they aren't all going to be like that, it's just gonna be the first few and then every so often, because I do have some ideas I want to try out that don't relate to the episodes. Anyway, enough rambling from me, I'm back from New York so here is an update! Enjoy!
It was the morning after the party, Tig's phone started to wake everyone up but what really did it was when he threw the girl, who was laying on top of him in a 69 position, onto the floor "I love you… I do" he drawls to her before leaving to hand the phone off to Clay. Everyone was groaning as they tried to wake up, the place was a mess, food and crow eaters were everywhere.
Chase joined in on the groaning as she tried to wake up, someone else near her did the same. As she went to open her eyes something below her shifted, she looked down, slightly shocked, she was practically laying on top of her best friend- "Juice?" he looked up, Chase's hair was slightly messy and her glasses were wonky from sleeping, he mirrored her confused expression, "Chase?" he looked around and then down at himself, they were still in the main room, fully clothed, lying on one of the couches, he breathed a small sigh of relief "what the hell happened?" Chase gave up trying to keep herself upright and let her head drop back onto Juice's chest
"another one of SAMCRO's legendary parties" her reply was muffled by his shirt but he chuckled anyway.
More groans fill the room, but one with a Scottish twinge catches Juice's attention, he can't help but laugh at the image in front of him, he taps Chase since he knows she won't want to miss seeing this. Chibs Telford was laying propped against a wall with Half Sack in his lap drooling on his shoulder, that was it the two of them started laughing like idiots, earning them explicit shouts from the other half asleep and hungover guests. Chibs woke up finally and once he realised the strange and compromising situation he was in, he pushed the prospect over, definitely waking him up,
"The fuck you think your doin'?" between the accent and the hangover, Chibs was barely understandable. Half Sack sat himself up and rubbed his face
"sorry" he knew it was best not to argue right now, he was too tired to anyway so he decided to just take the blame for their strange sleeping arrangement. The two of them looked over to where the laughter was coming from, Chibs raised an eyebrow at the pair
"Well well well, what happened there?" he smirks at them, provoking Chase to flip him off and get up and off of Juice.
"Should be asking you the same thing" she winked at him before moving to stand up, however this provoked the 'next morning' headache, the girl grabbed her head and groaned before going on about needing ten buckets of painkillers, the others just laugh at her bitching before getting up and suffering the same fate.
PERFECT LIFE…
The club house was still being cleaned after they had all gotten changed and dressed, Chase was glad she left a couple sets of clothes there for times like these, she really couldn't bring herself to drive all the way home. Bobby was sat on one of the couches feeling sorry for himself, Chase was sitting at the bar drinking a much needed glass of water. Juice, Half Sack and Chibs came down the stairs just as Opie walked in "Whoa, it looks like a shit tip in here" he steps over the broken pieces of bottles and food to get to Chase at the bar.
"Morning Ope" she smiled at him, her headache finally starting to wear off
"Morning, you guys have fun yesterday?" Juice and Chibs make their way over to them, the younger man throws an arm over Chase's shoulder, how the guy always managed to stay in good spirits even with a hangover was beyond all of them.
"Yeah, it was pretty good, Bobby passed out pretty early on, in fact I believe he passed out face down in a crow eater" the others laugh whilst Bobby gathers enough energy to stick his middle finger up at them. "Hey, you guys seen Hap? Lost him late on yesterday" Chibs nods
"Yeah he's upstairs getting ready, he was passed out with two girls next to him" the Scot chuckles at that as Chase just raises her eyebrows at the statement
"Go Hap" the others laugh again, but it's cut short when Opie's phone rings, he excuses himself and moves over to the edge of the club house.
Once he finishes his phone call he turned back to the group, his face etched with worry "We gotta get to St. Thomas" The group look up at him worried
"Why wassup?" Juice questions
"It's Gem" that was it, they didn't need any explanation, they were all up and on their bikes without a second thought, Half Sack and Bobby took the van and they all set off on their way to the hospital to see the woman they all loved dearly.
Once they get there they dump Bobby on a gurney and wheel him through the corridors, Juice, Half Sack, Chibs and Chase push the secretary past doctors and visitors, the looks they got weren't the most pleasant but they've learnt to ignore them now "Step aside! Step aside! Man down! Man down!" Chibs chanted as they turned the last corner, the four pushes slid to a stop with the gurney and decided to piss off Bobby by leaning on him. Tig smirks at them all
"How's the homecoming queen?"
"He's a little green" Juice replies to the sergeant as he leans even more on the guy, Bobby groans and lifts his head up
"How's Gemma?" he directs the question at Clay
"Better than you" he says with a smirk, causing the others to laugh
"Good, Good" the four gurney pushers start hitting Bobby in a brotherly manner "alright, alright".
A few minutes later Tara rounds the corner, Clay walks straight up to her, he needed to make sure his old lady was alright. "What's going on? Is she okay?" Tara nods, easing some of the presidents tension
"Yeah. Um, when she hit the barrier she took a pretty good shot to the face. There's some swelling. I have to run a few more tests, but she's gonna be fine."
"But, uh, it's nothing serious?" Tara smiles at him and shakes her head
"No. No."
"Can I see her?"
"It's gonna be a little while." The man looked slightly lost at this news, he spoke with a voice that was a lot softer than they were all used to
"Okay, well, uh, I appreciate you taking care of her, Doc."
"Oh. Of course."
PERFECT LIFE…
All the Sons except Clay, Tig and Opie, walked into Luann's shop. Chibs had to announce their entrance with "Wonderful" as he saw all the half-naked girls walking around. Chase rolls her eyes at him and walks straight over to hug the woman in front of them
"Hey Luann" she says with a smile as she pulled back a little from the hug
"Hey darlin'"
"Shit the feds really did clear you out, huh?" they talk things out with Luann, she explains her situation with Georgie and Juice had to stop her midsentence to laugh
"Wait, his name is Georgie?" Luann just looked at him like he was a complete idiot and when no one else laughed his smile fell flat and he went back to just listening like he was supposed to.
After talking with Luann the crew headed to Georgie Caruso's office to make sure the guy knows to back off Luann and her girls. The place smells like cheap aftershave, sweat and sex, the walls lined with posters of movies Georgie has directed, as they walk in Juice points to one of the porn posters called 'Cumdog millionaire' "Oh! I love that movie."
"Oh, I laughed, I cried, I came." They all laugh and Chase swats the Scot on the shoulder
"No shit. Must have been good. Won an Anal Oscar" Jax adds and they all laugh again.
Bobby spots Georgie's muscle down the corridor and the Sons walk over to them "you need something?"
"We're here to see Georgie." Jax replies as he moves to the front of the group, the guy looks him up and down
"You got an appointment?"
"No"
"then you don't see him" the guy told Jax flatly. But a couple of seconds later Georgie himself steps out of an office.
"Hey, auditions are out back." He looks around the group to see the new possible employees, Jax just smiles
"let me guess. Georgie Caruso." The unofficial security guard cuts in
"they were just leaving Mr. Caruso" Georgie smiles and looks back at the group, this guy was a total sleaze.
"That's too bad, 'cause this one here's got kind of a Brad Pitt thing going, only not quite as gay" he directs at Jax who gives the guy a weird look "And the girl too, that whole biker chic thing would sell in seconds, you one of the Caracara girls sweetheart?" he looks over to Chase who raises an eyebrow at the guy and scoffs
"You gotta be kidding me." She turns around and shows him the back of her cut, understanding washes across his face "Afraid I'm not for sale" she rolls her eyes at him, the guys chuckle again.
Georgie tries to play dumb about everything that happened to Luann, but Jax puts his foot down and tells the guy to, in a nut shell, piss off.
"Don't make me come back here… Georgie" Jax emphasises his name in a mocking way just to make sure the guys knows his place with the crew. Juice couldn't hold back the laugh at the mention of the guy's name
"Bye, Georgie" he says whilst still laughing, he hadn't stopped since they arrived.
Bobby stops before reaching the lobby of the joint, the guy with the muscle starts with him "You got a problem?" this catches the son's attention and they all turn around to give Bobby some back up. Bobby just holds his hand up to the man and then seconds later he is throwing up all over his shirt, that sent the others into fits of laughter.
"Not now man. I feel pretty good. Thanks" He sasses the guy before turning around and walking out, Juice pats Bobby on the back, still laughing "told you I was sick."
PERFECT LIFE…
Once Jax, Chibs and Chase return to the hospital to visit Gemma they spot Luann and one of the Caracara girls, they decide it's best to go over and see what happened. Luann goes on about Georgie beating up her girl because of what the Sons did "Go on, tell 'em what Georgie said" Lyla takes the towel away from her nose so she can talk properly
"he told me to tell Luann that if the little biker boys and their bitch show up again, he's gonna roll the camera while he… jams his dick up all your asses." Jax just turns around to Chibs and Chase
"We'll see Gemma later." And the three of them move to walk out of the hospital. However Luann's still pretty pissed and shouts after them
"Jax, don't you do anything!" but the V.P just spins around on her
"Who the hell do you think you're talking to? Get her patched up! Call the rest of your talent and tell them to lock their doors!" Jax shouts at the woman who is spitting out apologies to the Son. He walks back to the other two, Chibs looks at him
"Should we call Clay?" Jax shakes his head
"he's on guns. Call the others. It's baseball time." Chase smirks
"My favourite sport"
After gathering everyone else up the take a little trip down to Georgie's studio, the man is less than impressed "Hey! Get the hell out! It's a closed set" but the club wasn't listening, they were too busy swings their bats around and destroying property. One of the guys grabs Chase from behind but she just uses the handle of the bat to jam the guy in the ribs, he grabs his middle in pain and drops her. She then goes to take a few swings at the guy's head just to be safe. Georgie tries to stop them but Jax takes him down and delivers an interesting threat to the guy, but he gets the message and they decide it's time to leave.
Back at the club house they were all sat around the table in the chapel, Jax delivering his idea about becoming partners with Luann, he had a good point, it was a legit business that would earn them real and somewhat untainted money, plus it would keep the feds off their backs. They start discussing ideas on how it could work, they settle on the old gun warehouse and then the guys start making points, Juice is first with one of his geekier comments "Yeah, and we could upgrade her internet shit." He gestures to himself and Chase "There's plenty of room for servers in that space. And that's where the real cash is" Chase just face palms and the hackers idea, don't get her wrong it was a valid point but just the way he said it made her want to laugh at his geeky enthusiasm. Then Chibs has to add
"And I was blessed with an excellent eye for casting" Clay still isn't totally convinced but Jax continues to make valid points to try and sway the president's decision, Clay just sighs
"And at the very least, we'll get Bobby laid." The Scot manages to fit in a dig at Fat Elvis, getting laughs from everyone in the room. Clay speaks up again
"Thoughts?"
"Everybody loves pussy"
"Second that" Opie raises his hand at Chibs's point, as does Juice
"Third it."
"I'm a very big fan of pussy." Tig adds and Clay sighs again.
"All in favour. Like I gotta ask" all the guys raise their hands and shout, however they all look over to Chase for her vote, she just sighs and looks at them all "well since you boys are all so bloody eager… hell yeah!" they all cheer again and Clay hits the gavel.
PERFECT LIFE…
Next stop for Club business was dealing guns to the Niners, they got to their meeting place and everything was going smooth until the Mayan's ambush the meet and Bobby gets shot in the shoulder. Everyone is shouting and there is gun fire everywhere, Clay chucks the money back at Laroy telling him that he'll get more guns but right now he needs to take care of his guys. Just as the Mayans are leaving Opie walks out, completely vulnerable, and starts shooting at the guys in the back of the pickup trucks, he gets quite a few good shots but as he's walking up bullets are constantly whizzing past his head. When the others see him walking towards the Mayans they all shout at their friend, trying to make him see sense before he gets himself killed, but Ope doesn't listen, he just keeps going until they drive off. After everything cools down Opie gets straight on his bike and takes off back towards the club house, Chase stood beside Clay as Opie left, they share a look of worry for their brother.
Once they get back to the clubhouse, Tara patches Bobby up and the others take a load off after their mission gone bad. Opie finally comes back downstairs, he must have cooled off. He heads over to the bar to see Chase "Hey, haven't seen much of you girl over the past couple of weeks, I've missed you" he hugs her, she's a little shocked at his sudden change in demeanour but hugs him back anyway
"I missed you too Ope"
"we got that wrap party tomorrow right? You gonna go? Maybe we could finally catch up" Opie asked from his seat next to her, she just looked at him, it was weird how he could do something as crazy as he did and then just have a casual conversation like nothing happened.
"uh, I dunno, I mean I'm all for doing shit for the club and I'm fine with the whole Caracara thing but I just don't think that party is really gonna be my thing, ya know?"
"there's gonna be free booze" that caught her attention but she waved him off
"I'm still trying to recover from bobby's homecoming" Opie just looked at her with a smirk
"light-weight" he ruffled the top of her hair which earned him a hard punch in the arm, he just laughed at her "come on, we can grab a drink and laugh at the guys getting drunk off their asses"
"alright fine" she smiled at him "it better be entertaining!" she shouted at him as she walked away. She decided to head home for the evening, it had been a long day.
