After the holidays Tara had been very busy working at the hospital. The office at TW and of course she had to go check in on her new clothing store that's still hasn't been done yet and the grand opening is only less two weeks away. Most people would think Tara is crazy for doing so much and yeah Tara would probably agree to that. But As she's just not the Queen of Samcro. She's also the Queen of Charming.
Pulling up in front of the store. Getting out she saw some of the contractors Jax hired just sitting around drinking beers. Tara walked into the store as she placed her sunglasses on the top of her head." So, did you guys at least get any work done?"Tara asked as she looks back over at the contractors.
" Yeah, some work and now we are taking a break. What's the problem?" One of the contractors who was name Mike asked as he takes a sip of his beer.
Tara just glared at him as she crossed her arms over her chest as she didn't like his answer or his attitude.
" Okay first of all drop the fucking attitude cause I am really not in the mood to deal with assholes. Second of all the problem is that we are expected to have this clothing store open in two weeks." She said as she brought two fingers up." And so far I haven't seen any process at all and some work ain't gonna work for me."
" Sorry, Tara. We will get back work." Jason Mike's partner said as he stood next to Mike. He looks over at the rest of their crew and nods his head to let them know it was time to get back to work. Tara nods her head a little.
" Jax will be here later with, Juice to check on the wires, so he can start putting in security cameras in here." Tara says as she walked out of the shop and got back into her car. Pulling away from the store. Tara headed towards the supermarket to go shopping before heading home. Tonight was the family dinner and Tara and the other old ladies had some cooking to do. They are all supposed to be coming over to her and Jax around five to help out.
Walking down the cereal aisle, Tara pulled out her cell and call Jax to let him know she is at the supermarket shopping and to remind Juice to stop by at the store to put in the security cameras and for him to make sure the contractors are actually working.
" Yeah, he will be there soon. Pick up some extra steaks to put on the grill." Jax requested. He chuckles as he could hear the irritation groan coming from her through the phone. " What time do you need the other girls to be there?" Jax asked.
" I need them to be at the house at least around 4 pm. I wanna get dinner done hopefully by eight. So make sure everyone shows up at seven." Tara says as she reaches over and picked out two boxes of cereal and drops them into her shopping cart. After she told Jax, she loves him and hangs up. Tara set her cell in the cart as she walked towards the meat aisle and grabbed two extra steaks. She then continue her shopping before heading back home.
Juice was in the middle of putting up one of the security cameras up above the door when one of the contractors, Mike who gave Tara an asshole attitude stopped whatever he was doing and leans back against his work table.
" Hey, man can I ask you a question?" Mike asked.
Juice didn't take his eyes off of the security camera he was stalling as he responded." About?" He asked.
" About this Tara chick. Is she always a bitch or is it only towards me?"
" Why you wanna know?" Juice asked.
" Well it's just she came in her bitching about the fact nothing was getting done and she practically demanded that we go back to work like she's some kind of Queen and everyone has to bow down to her or some shit." Juice couldn't help but snort as he shook his head.
" Tara wouldn't have to bitch if you actually got some fucking work done." Jax spoke up as he walked into the store with his cigarette between his lips as he walked towards Mike. " She is the Queen of my club and this town, And if I ever hear you disrespect my old lady again, I would put a Goddamn bullet in your neck. Now get back to work." Jax says calmly even though he was, pissed off right now Jax wasn't going to do something stupid right in front of the other contractors.
Getting off the ladder Juice couldn't help but have a huge grin on his face as he slapped Mike's back little harder then he meant to." I do hope that answered you're questioned and Jax meant what he said. Disrespect his Old lady again you will be dead. So, I suggest you keep Tara's name out of your mouth unless you wanna be buried." Juice smirks by the look on Mike's face. He then walked out of the store and let Jax know the Camera was up.
It was around six thirty when Jax and the rest and the rest of the club came walking through the front door. He walked into the kitchen and towards Tara as he grins and kisses her softly and tenderly." This looks amazing babe. Did my help with anything?" Jax asked as he placed his hand against the counter and his other hand against her hip.
" Yeah, check on the steaks. It's been five minutes already since the last time I checked on them. They should be done by now." Tara says as she turned the stove off and took the chicken out and set the pan on the counter.
" Okay babe." He says as he kisses the side of her head gently and headed out back towards the grill. He knows Tara is still pissed about the store and the fact nothing still hasn't gotten done. Hell even Jax is still pissed off about it. He's more pissed off that one of the contractors disrespected his old lady. But he will deal with the asshole later.
" You good brother?" Opie asked as he walked over to Jax with two beers in his hand and hands one over to Jax." I couldn't help but feel the little tension between you two." Opie says with a shrug as he takes a drink of her beer.
" Nah, it's nothing like that. The store is supposed to be open in two weeks and there hasn't been any process not even close and there's on contractor that I really want to smash his head in." Jax says as he grabs the plate off of the side table and places the steaks on them.
" Who?" Opie asked as he raised his brow for a moment.
" Mike. The mother-fucker basically disrespected Tara and all I wanted to kill the Fucker. But I couldn't risk it in front of the other contractors." Jax says as he takes a sip of his beer. Jax has no problem with the other contractors. Mike is the only one he has a fucking problem with him.
" I will have couple prospects keep an eye on him." Opie says as he gave Jax's shoulder a squeeze." Nothing is going to happen to Tara. We won't allow it brother." Opie says with a nod.
" Hey, guys!" Venus says as she opened the screen door. Dinner is ready." She said as she stuck her head out.
" We are coming." Jax called back as he looked over his shoulder. He turned his attention back to Opie once the back door closed." Don't tell the guys. We will bring it to the table tomorrow. Tonight let's just enjoy family dinner." Jax says as he walks back towards the kitchen with Opie right behind.
Tara and the other old ladies had just set everything on the table when everyone all gathered around and sat down. Tara sat down next to Jax once he sat down. She took a look around the table and so happy and glad to be around family. A year ago Tara had her doubts but after everything they went through last year. Tara wouldn't trade this life for anything. This is her family and there's no changing that.
Jax gently pulls Tara's hand towards his lips and kisses the back of her hand gently." I love you babe." He says softly.
" I love you too Jackson." Tara says as she leans over and kisses him gently. They spend the rest of family dinner with their family. The problem with the store would just have to be dealt with tomorrow. Tonight it's about their family and that's all Tara cared about.
