Enjoy!


It was Wednesday when I finally got around to seeing Donna. Now Donna is a bit different then the others. Sure Gemma chewed my ass out for just disappearing for almost ten years but Donna was gonna chew my ass out & feed it to the pigeons okay? Running a hand through my hair, I walked out of my dorm, fresh out the shower. Wearing a pair of shorts again, I had grabbed the nearest pair of combats & a home-made cropped SAMCRO t-shirt. I literally looked like I just threw on whatever was close by. Singing under my breath, I walked into the main area and smiled at Bobby & Tig.

"Hey boys. What's up?" I asked, grabbing a piece of bacon from Bobby's plate. He gave me a dirty look and I just chuckled.

"My cock." Tig replied, smiling at me and continuing to read the sports section. Laughing again, I waved him away. Bobby looked up and smiled at me this time. "What Elvis?"

"I missed your laugh sweetheart." Rolling my eyes, I got up & kissed his hairy cheek. Tig jutted his cheek out, as if I was going to give him a cheek. Smacking his cheek lightly, I walked away and towards the kitchen where a plate of scrambled eggs & bacon strips waited for me. Popping some bagels into the toaster, I set to work on the dishes in the sink.

"You don't have to do those Rhia! Half-Sack'll take care of 'em." I ignored Tig as I usually do and continued to wash the plenty of dishes in the sink. I had always felt bad for the prospects who to do all this bullshit work the guys left for them, probably because I watched Opie & Jax experience it first hand. The front door of the clubhouse opened & light flooded through as Jax stepped in.

Speak of the devil.

Leaving a couple of dishes in the sink for Half-Sack, I grabbed my plate of food, & bagels and walked into the main area. Jax was standing at Bobby & Tig's booths, talking to them. As I got closer, I heard the conversation they were having.

"Hey Bobby? Is there anything you wanted to mention to me? Like a certain person being in town?" Jax asked, leaning down on the table and staring at the two older men carefully. Clearing my throat to make my presence known, I slid into the booth and smiled up at the blonde-headed man in front of me.

"Oh no need Jackson. I'll tell you myself. I'm back in town and I'm pretty sure I'm gonna be here a while." Taking a bite of my bagel, I winked up at him and sat back. Bobby and Tig sat there, not knowing what to do about the obvious tension in the area. I lifted my leg so it was bent and pressed up against my chest while holding Jax's gaze.

"Why are you back?" He asked, sliding into the booth and effectively pushing Tig so he was sitting directly across from me.

"My sister, your ex-wife, just got admitted into the hospital after having your child prematurely and overdosing. Now, what kind of sister would I be if I didn't show up to help her through this rough time?" My voice, heavy with sarcasm, was slightly muffled as I shoveled a forkful of eggs into my mouth.

"Oh, so you show up when she's near death but not for her wedding? Yeah, sister of the year you are." My eyes narrowed as my grip on the metal fork in my right hand tightened.

"You know why I never showed up to that wedding. If you don't then you're just as oblivious as everyone else thinks you are." Getting up and starting to take my plate back to the kitchen, Jax grabbed my wrist and pulled me back. He stood up and we stood eye to eye. Never in my life had I been more happy for being 5'9'' then at this moment. Steely pools of blue met my hazel eyes and I had to hold back a shudder.

"What the fuck is that supposed to mean Rhia?" He asked, his grip not loosening one bit on my wrist.

"It means Jackson, that since I was eight years old I have been utterly and hopelessly in love with you. Then you go and shatter all that within a one hour period that was followed by weeks of deadly silence. I gave you everything that night Jax and you just threw it back in my face when you treated me like just any other croweater in the crowd. Watching you marry my sister was just gonna add insult to injury." Shaking my wrist loose and tearing my eyes away from his speechless expression, I quickly marched away from him and into the kitchen. Biting back a sob and blinking away the hot tears that had formed in my eyes, I threw my plate into the sink and pulled my keys from my pocket.

"Rhiannon! Rhia! Come back here!" Jax shouted after me as I stomped my way across the street and towards TM where my car was currently parked. Unlocking it, I slid in and put down the roof. He was just making his way across the street when I slid my sunglasses on and turned the car engine on. "You never told me any of that!" He exclaimed as he finally reached my side of the car.

"Well, if you weren't so blinded by the other brunette in your life then you would've noticed now wouldn't ya?" Flipping my hair over my shoulder and putting the car in reverse, I took off towards Linette Houser's real estate office. If I was gonna be in town for a while, I needed a place to live and it didn't look like Jax was gonna move outta the clubhouse anytime soon.

As strong as I am, living with him was gonna get harder everyday. The sooner I was away from him, the better.


I'm an awful updater and now I can only beg for your forgiveness. Next chapter includes Rhia seeing Abel for the first time, visiting Wendy again, and a very EVENTFUL encounter with the infamous Tara Knowles.

Stay tuned, I promise to update if you promise to review.
