Chapter 9,
Jax's POV, (When they get to Opie's)
After meeting the Cullen's, I pulled Iz with me, we got on my bike and off we went. Pulling up at a corner house, I helped Iz off the bike then got off myself. She looked at me with the question on her face,
"Opie lives just up the road, Donna doesn't like hearing the bikes coming so we have to stop round from his house."
She looked away from me for a moment and I knew she was thinking about something, I went to start walking when she pulled me to a stop, so I looked at her with a raised eyebrow.
"Tell me more about Donna? I remember a conversation between you and Opie at the lumber yard. It seems like Donna doesn't really like the club."
I scratched the back of my neck and pulled her to sit back on my bike pulling her between my legs.
"Donna doesn't like the club, she wants Opie to leave she doesn't understand that once you're in your in for life. Opie got locked up for one of the things he did, he went away for five years. Donna hasn't been a fan since, that's the shortened version of the story."
"Ok, but didn't she know what she was marrying into? I mean Opie's been in the club as long as you, so he must have been a member when he met Donna, so why would she suddenly think things will change? She knew what she was marrying into."
I knew she had a point, but there was just so much about Donna and Opie's relationship that I just didn't know about. Opie keeps so much locked up that the only time we know when something is wrong is when he bursts cause his so full and can't take anymore.
"From what I've gathered over time Darlin she seems to think she married Opie and not the club"
She took on the most adorable look I have ever seen, she scrunched up her nose and looked at me with her big brown doe eyes.
"So, after all these years together plus the two kids they have she still hasn't figured out that Opie and the club are a packaged deal?"
"Bout right Darlin yea"
"Wow, she seems like a right bitch"
Now that had me chuckling, this young lady in front of me was becoming to mean so much to me in the short amount of time I had known her. Never before had any woman affected me so much, even Tara. I kissed her lips softly and grabbed her hand.
"Come on Darlin"
I pulled her along with me, we got to Mrs Baxter's house, which was the nicest house on the street when we heard shouting, I looked at Iz to say with my eyes here we go again. I knew what Iz was thinking without her even saying anything to me, because I had been thinking it myself since the beginning. I knew Opie loved Donna with everything he had but all she seemed to want to do was change him.
We stopped just outside the garage where all the shouting was coming from, I put my arms around her waist and pulled her into my chest, from where we were standing we could hear everything that was being said and I have to say I didn't like any of what I was hearing Donna had it so wrong.
"You sat in a cell for five years why Clay and the others got rich. They sold you out, you know that, you're just too weak to stand up to them"
This had not only me tensing but Iz as well, no way in hell would any of us betray Opie like that and for Donna to think that or even say it to Opie made me mad as hell. Opie is my best friend hell his like a brother to me no way would I do that to him.
We looked back at Opie and Donna to see her starting to walk away, she grabbed the bag on her way and was trying to yank it out of Opie's hand.
"Give me the bag Donna!"
"NO" she screamed, then she started hitting Opie's chest, I felt Iz nudge me and looked to where she hinted with her head, I looked over to see the kids and smiled at them nodding my head towards the door in hint that they should go back the way they came. Once Opie caught sight of the kids he stopped fighting with Donna, she took a breath then walked away taking the kids with her, Opie put his bag on his shoulder and made his way out of the garage where he caught sight of me and Iz.
"Didn't hear you pull up"
He looked at Iz and smiled,
"Hey Iz"
"Op"
"Parked down the block, didn't want to tweek Donna"
"You catch all that?"
"Enough"
"I think shes already tweeked"
"Yeah"
He had a point I suppose, couldn't deny that also couldn't say anything to it either because if I was him I would have left Donna's arse years ago. No way would I put up with being treated the way Donna treats him.
"So Iz, heard the ex-made a visit?"
She snorted to that and smirked,
"Yeah you could say that. I was gonna ask to meet Donna but after that I don't think now's the right time sorry about that by the way we weren't eavesdropping"
This had me smirking, she wasn't but I sure as shit was.
"Don't worry, you can pop in if you want? Think some female company might help"
"Ok, you guys go do your thing with the club I got this"
She kissed me and winked then kissed Opie's cheek and walked away. I watched her as she walked, swinging her hips at me. This had me smirking and looking at Opie who also had a smirk on his face.
"I don't think Donna's gonna know what's hit her with that one"
This had me chuckling, my girl certainly was a fire cracker I would give her that. The thing is I think shes always been this way but shes kept it locked up in fear of what Charlie would do or say to her, or that stupid pissing ex of hers. Now shes unleashed her inner demon and I am gonna love helping her explore it.
"I think you might be right there Op, lets move before we get called back in to stop a fight"
Opie got on his bike and I walked to mine, hoping on as soon as I got there. We sped off together with me in the lead. We met up with Clay, nodding at him and got into formation, the others joining us along the way. We arrived at the Mexicans warehouse and got to work, me and Op going one way with Clay and the others going another. All looking for the guns they took from us, in the main warehouse bit there was wooden crates and boxes everywhere, so we just started pulling things out in search.
We found the guns in the crates, why the others got to moving them to our van me and Opie got to working on rigging the place with explosives.
I knew there was a problem, so started thinking of a distraction. I walked over to Clay and we both saw some Mayans coming we looked at each other and knew this would end in blood shed.
I ended up putting on a blanket covering myself and singing like I was a drug homeless dude. Some Mayans walked over to me and started shit. Clay came up behind them and pulled his gun on them,
"Tell your dirt bag buddies they steal from Sam Crow they get some of this" then he shot one of them, which triggered the one left in the van to start moving but Chibs took care of him. Clay looked at me and started walking over towards the dumpster
"His all yours"
I pulled my gun up to shot him, when I heard gun shots and felt them hit my back. Luckily, I had my vest on, Clay shot the one who shot me then pulled me up.
"I'm ok, got the vest."
"Finish it"
I pointed my gun at the prick still on the floor and shot him. When the others came running up to us. With Chibs in the lead,
"Oh, Mary mother of Christ, I leave you bad boys for two minutes and it all turns to shit"
"It's all good"
Tig then shouted over,
"Clay look at this"
we walked over to the body and saw it was one of Darby's men,
"Darby's guy"
"So, he did make some new friends in chino" Clay said
"White boy must of sucked lots of brown dick" Tig said,
"A common enemy, us" Clay said
"Darby wants charming"
"There goes the neighbourhood" Clay said, then he shot up the sign to the warehouse, he lite a candle and rolled it into the warehouse, we were running out when it exploded. I knew in that moment we had started something that would affect those we love more then us. Once we were on our way, I started thinking about what Iz would think of me now, covered in blood and shit. She knew something was going to happen tonight, but I don't think she truly has realised who she is dating.
When I was with Tara she used to tell me what a monster I was for doing these things with the club, I didn't truly know Iz yet, but I hoped she wouldn't be the same way.
Me and op made our way back to his, I just hope Iz and Donna hadn't ripped each other's hair out by now. We pulled up outside his and got off our bikes, I looked at Op and smiled,
"Well doesn't seem to be any shouting now, maybe they killed each other"
To this Op laughed and pushed me, we got to the door opening it and walking in, where we heard laughing because we were still laughing I think we scared them cause all of a sudden, they started screaming. They look at each other and burst out laughing they high five and then walk over to us.
Iz gets to me and I pull her into my arms kissing her lip softly, I see Opie doing the same with Donna out of the corner of my eye. I see Iz look over to Donna and wink at her, which has her laughing. Iz then looks up to us both,
"How did it go?"
I knew she would ask this, but I wasn't comfortable telling her in front of Donna because I didn't know how much Opie wants her to know so I simply answered with.
"As planned"
She smiled at Donna and nodded,
"You ready to go Darlin?"
"Yeah let me grab my stuff and help Donna clean-up"
Before she could move Donna stepped in front of her,
"Don't you dare, you've done enough for me tonight"
She then pulled her into a hug whispering something I couldn't hear, Iz whispered something back and they both giggled at each other. This had me looking at Opie and smiling, I think Iz is going to be a good thing not just for me but for Opie and Donna's relationship to. She walked over to slip her shoes back on and looked at me walking back over to me.
"Lets go sexy" we all chuckled at her, she kissed Opie's cheek and waved to Donna.
"I'll text you in the morning Donna"
With that I was pulling her out of the door, I took off my jacket and put it on her cause it had got slightly cold I climbed on my bike holding out my hand to help her on. Once I knew she was on and was holding me tight I was speeding off down the road. I was going to go to the hospital but couldn't be bothered to see Tara and her disappointed looks, I knew I should go and see my son, but I also knew I didn't want to see him covered in someone's blood.
I pulled into the club and parked in my usual spot, I helped Iz off my bike and climbed off after her grabbing her hand. We walked hand in hand into the club and straight to our room. Once in I pushed her against the door with my lips crashing against hers, her hands found there way into my hair pulling me closer to her, my hands wrapping around her waist pulling her as close to me as I could.
She moved her hands down to my chest, which had me tensing slightly I knew what she would feel. She pulled her hand away from my chest and moved it into her line of sight, when I saw her eyes widening in fear I knew she had seen the blood. She looked up at me and into my eyes where I was looking back at her in fear.
"Jax?"
I heard the slight tremble in her voice and knew she feared it was my blood.
"It's not my bloody baby"
I could see the instant my words hit her, her eyes relaxed.
"Oh, good ok. How about a shower?"
This had me looking at her in surprise, I was used to being called a monster, or how much of a bad person I was or how what I was doing was bad and I should get out, but I had never once experienced this reaction.
"What? That's it? No shouting at me or calling me a monster?"
Her hand went to my cheek, her thumb running along my bottom lip and she smiled at me.
"You're not a monster Jax, I was worried the blood was yours nothing more. You don't have to tell me tonight cause I know your tell me when your ready. So, lets get a shower and go to bed, I want to feel your arms around me tonight."
I took a deep breath and could feel myself relaxing with each word she said to me.
"Ok baby"
I kissed her thumb and grabbed her hand pulling her into the bathroom, I turned on the shower and turned to her, where she slowly undressed and stepped into the shower smiling at me.
"Come on sexy join me"
I was in before she could finish her sentence, we washed each other and sneaked a few kisses, once out I passed her another of my tops to sleep in, she crawled into bed and laid on her side. I got in behind her sliding my arms around her pulling her close to me.
"Goodnight baby"
I kissed her head and closed my eyes,
"Night babe"
Falling asleep as soon as the words were out of her mouth.
Waking up with Iz still wrapped in my arms was amazing, I don't think I have slept all night in so long. I had work to take care of in the garage today some bikes needed working on, so I slowly unwrapped my arms and got out of bed trying not to disturb her. It was a late night for us last night. I grabbed a pair of jeans, a black t-shirt and my uniform top for the garage, throwing it all on as I was walking. I got out of the room and went straight to work in the garage. I was welding a part when I heard a bike palling up, I looked up to see Bobby he stopped in front of me and Half sack holding a brown paper bag waving it at us,
"I got the good shit"
We followed him into the club, where he opened the bag and tipped the muffins out onto the table.
"Here you go boys"
Piney being the first to grab one,
"Oh, these Muffins go good with Tequila"
Chibs then speaking up, "Shits addictive, gonna make me a fat bastard"
Bobby telling us what he put into the Muffins, me asking
"Did you put hash in them?"
"You know my rule no bud before 9am"
"I don't have that rule"
Clay walking into the club,
"Morning kids, Deal with the niners is officially closed"
He put a bag on the table and started handing out envelopes full of cash,
"Spoke to Leroy and he is giddy about his new assault rifles"
Chibs said something, then Clay said something back.
"Spend it wisely boys might be a while before we see any gun green"
Our moment is gone when Juice walks in,
"Hey, just got an update from our city hall snitch, looks like Hale got a warrant to search our warehouse"
Just when we thought it was going to be a good day, I looked over to Clay who looked like he wanted to be anywhere but here. Before he could say anything Iz was walking into the bar area, she looked at us all smiling. She was still wearing my shirt and nothing more, this had Clay looking at me with a raised eyebrow I knew what he was asking so I just shock my head.
Iz walked over to Clay and kissed his cheek,
"Morning Daddy"
"Morning Princess sleep well?"
"I did, haven't slept that well in ages."
She then walked over to me stepping between my legs, she put her arms around my neck and leaned up to kiss me softly.
"Morning sexy"
"Morning baby"
"So, I was wondering if its ok with you Jax, I'd like to go and spend the day at the Hospital with Abel? I don't want to over step or anything so if…
I stopped her before she could finish, I put my hand over her mouth shaking my head,
"Baby girl I would love nothing more then for you to spend the day with my son, especially when I cant be there until later this evening"
"Ok babe, I'm gonna go get ready"
She then walked away, we all walked out of the club house to get things done. I was walking with Clay, and Bobby when Clay spoke up.
"I'm glad your sons going to be ok"
"Thanks, I am sorry about last night should have had that place level before the Mayans ever got there, I made a shit call"
Bobby then spoke up, I knew he was feeling guilty to, but he shouldn't of because it was all my fault, everything that happened with Abel really messed with my head.
"Yeah I'm the one that should have been there blowing that shit up"
"Everything happens for a reason, we hadn't hit that warehouse we would of never known about the nords and Mayans hook up."
We got into the office to see Ma carrying paperwork,
"Got to get this shit to Rosens guy"
Bobby walked out of the office and into the garage, as I went to leave I said to Ma,
"Going to see the kid tonight"
"Yeah, I'll be there. I still want to do that dinner maybe tomorrow night?"
"Sure"
With that I walked out of the office, and back into the garage to finish the bike I was working on. I was away with the bike fairies when I heard my name being called, I looked up to see Iz and what I saw had my jaw dropping open in shock and my dick standing to attention. The woman was pure sex on legs, and I couldn't wait for them legs to be wrapped around me one night soon.
She had on the shortest pair of black jean shorts I had ever seen, they had rips in the front of them she went through my shirt draw because she had on my black Sam Crow wife beater but tied in the front so she was showing a lot of belly, she must have cut my shirt which I have no issues with at all, she had black ankle heal boots on with silver studs on them and her hair was left down and naturally wavy and to finish she had on my sun glasses, again not complaining.
I walked over to her, putting my hands on her hips and pulling her towards me where I crashed my lips against hers I ran my tongue along her bottom lip asking for entrance which she gladly gave me, but before we could get to carried away Bobby was clearing his throat to get our attention. We pulled apart and looked over to him,
"What's up uncle Bobby?"
"Its nice seeing you and Jax happy but my niece and I really don't want to see that shit"
This had Iz giggling at him,
"Ok uncle Bobby I promise to ravish Jax away from you next time"
"Thank you, princess,"
With that he went back to work, I shock my head and focused once again on Iz,
"Jax can I borrow a car?"
"Yea Darlin, there's one in the parking lot by our bikes you can use. We will go and get you one tomorrow, or you can do your bike test"
"Nah I like riding on the back of your bike"
I kissed her lips and pushed her in the direction of the car, smacking her ass as she walked away from me.
"Off with ya beautiful your distracting me from my work"
She giggled and walked away from me swaying her hips as she went, once I saw her get in the car and drive away I focused back on what I was doing. After about half hour Clay was calling us into church.
We put on our kuts and followed after him. We all took our seats and Clay filled us in about what Tig had done, Chibs was the first one to talk.
"What were you thinking brother?"
"I was thinking about getting my dick sucked twice"
Bobby then spoke up, normally when he spoke I listened but this time not so much.
"All anybody can prove is a couple of brownies swallowed, your chum they died hiding from the fire you didn't kill anybody."
He had a point but that's not what I was worried about,
"It aint about the man slaughter rap. CSU team test those bodies Tigs DNA puts that gun factory on our doorstep."
Juice then spoke up,
"Then ATF takes up permanent residence in each of our rectums."
"That warehouse sits on county property Hales gonna have to wait days for the paperwork to go through"
"County won't get involved, it's a local case"
Once things were spoke about Clay hit the gravel and church was over. Tig had really put us in the shit here why he couldn't just find an old lady and settle down I will never know. Its not the first time his done something like this and it probably won't be the last.
I was out on the bike when Hale pulled up alongside me,
"How you doing Jax? Heard about Wendy and the baby I'm sorry"
"Thanks"
I knew it was coming
"I took a ride out to the streams today, saw that warehouse that burnt down"
"Outside your jurisdiction aint it?"
Lights went green, so I pushed off and he followed alongside me, talking.
"Ever hear of Bluebird supply company?"
"Never heard of em"
"Whole area was littered with gun parts and Amo, warehouse was a gun factory"
"No kidding"
"Chief Unser will be retiring at the end of the month, I'll be stepping in his shoes. Unser's always had a look the other way policy with the Sons of Anarchy."
"Unser's a lazy drunk"
"I will not look the other way Jax"
"We're all free men protected by the constitution, you look any way you want chief."
I then sped off, I got to the hospital parked up and walked right in. Got to Abels room to see Iz stood outside it and Tara just walking out of his room. This had me speeding up and getting to Iz who looked pissed.
"Hey baby? Hows Abel?"
She looked at me and smiled but I could still see the anger in her eyes.
"Hey babe, I wouldn't know because Dr Bitch over there wouldn't let me in his room"
I saw she was pointing at Tara with her thumb I had no idea what Tara was even doing here. I grabbed Iz's hand and pulled her to stand in front of Tara.
"What's going on? Why didn't you let Iz in to see Abel? And why are you working on my son?"
"Jax, shes not family and I am a doctor working in this hospital!"
This had me pissed as well,
"Tara let me make this clear to you, Isabella is family she is my family and Abels she is allowed in his room whenever she wants to come and seen him. You on the other hand I do not want you working on my son, I do not want you near my son and if I have to make a complaint to stop you then I will!"
Iz pushed her out of the way and we made our way into the room to see Abel, I saw Tara glaring at Iz from the corner of my eye and knew I would have to make it clear to who ever was in charge here that I did not want Tara anywhere near my son and Iz is allowed in to see him. Once upon a time I would have been happy that Tara was back but not now, she had hurt me when she left. I knew our relationship was going to end because she was worse then Donna, always going on at me to leave Sam Crow behind, leave Charming behind and leave my family but I could never do that. Sam Crow is my home, it is my family I needed a woman who would accept that, and it seems Isabella is that woman I had been searching for.
I put my left hand on her waist pulling her close to me and my right hand went to her chin to lift her head up to look into my eyes, I placed a soft kiss on her lips and pulled back.
"Baby would you be my old lady? Would you get the Crow tattoo to show the world your mine?"
She looked into my eyes for a long time before smiling at me, she put her hand on my cheek.
"I would love to Jax but if I'm yours then you have to be mine. No cheating on me with any other woman, even if its what daddy called a sweet butt! If I give myself to you completely you have to do the same to me"
This I could promise, I knew a lot of the other guys who had old ladies would often sleep with sweet butts while away or kept it quiet within Sam Crow, but I wasn't like that, especially not with Iz she means to much to me to even want to sleep with another woman.
I moved both hands to her cheeks holding her face, so she could look into my eyes and know the truth of my words.
"Isabella, I would never do that to you! I swear to you hear and now in front of our little soldier, I would never intentially hurt you in that way. You are mine and I am yours in everyway"
I took a Sons ring off my finer and placed it on her thumb, I knew it would be to big for her ring finger, but I hoped the symbol of it would mean what I want it to mean.
"This is my promise to you, I will be faithful to you always, love you, cherish you and worship your body whenever you ask for it and even when you don't. I know the rings a bit big for your ring finger baby, but I promise when I find the right ring I will get it and put it on your finger and we will get married. But for now, this is just us, me and you swearing ourselves to each other"
I could see the tears in her eyes, so I wiped them away with my thumbs, and gently placed a kiss on her lips I pulled back, so she could speak.
"Jax I promise to love you, cherish you and be there for you when you need me. I am not only swearing myself to you, but to Sam Crow and to Abel your gorgeous son who I promise to protect with my life if needed. I will be faithful to you, be kind to you and remind you everyday you are not a monster. I will worship your body and let you worship mine whenever we can. I love you"
I pulled her into my arms holding her tight to my chest, in this moment I knew no matter what was to happen with Sam Crow with all the shit we had coming our way I knew I would never be alone again, Iz would always be at my side and I would always be by her side. We were not just Jax and Iz or even a son and his old lady we were equals, we would always be equals.
I pushed her slightly away from me, so I could kiss her again, my tongue seeking entrance and gaining access. I would forever remember the happiness I felt in this moment, I felt someone watching us so pulled back and saw Tara glaring at us again, this had me raising an eyebrow at her. I would have to watch her around Iz and Abel!
I turned away from her and focused on my family in front of me. She could wait!
AN,
Thank you for sticking with me and being patient. I'm sorry its taken so long to update I had writers block for a while then my laptop decided it was ready for an update but has also decided my memory is to full so updating so its now being a bitch about it all and being slower than me in the mornings.
I hope you enjoy this update.
To a review I had from hateme101 who wrote, I like this but I feel as if you changed Bella's character to fast, someone can't change that much over night.
You are right in that respect but also from the beginning I said my Bella would be different from the original. Bella hasn't changed she has always been the tough character I have wrote her as she just kept it well hidden because she didn't want Charlie to be upset with her, now she knows she can be the real her she is embracing it.
As for some others who have asked if Edward will be coming back? At this time I have no plans to bring him back into it. I really don't like Edward, I don't like how he made decisions for Bella, leaving her and coming back etc.
I hope to update more regularly so please stick with me.
