…Chapter 21…
Bobby's Back Home

It's been about two months since Jax and I got married in Vegas. We don't wear our rings around everyone, because we don't want them to know, except the guys and Elena, to know about us until Bobby gets out. I want all of us there, because it wouldn't be the same without him.

A couple of days after we came back from Vegas, Elena and I took a day off, and went over to San Francisco, to a doctors clinic, away from nosey people in Charming, so could see if I was really pregnant, and according to the doctor, yes I am. I still haven't told Jax yet and I will, when it's the right time, and by now, I'm around fourteen weeks, and Elena has already gone crazy shopping for her godchild.


Today was the day, that Bobby is supposed to get released, and come home, well, later on tonight actually, since the witness went missing and they really don't have anything against him, they can't hold Bobby any longer, and I'm so glad.

While Gemma took Abel to the St. Thomas for a check up, and Jax was out with the boys, Elena and I were working at the shop. "So, how you feeling, Mama?"

I laughed. "Like shit." I sat down in my chair. "But I feel a little bit better than I did a month ago, I could hardly eat anything."

"And now?"

"I can eat, but sometimes I'm always tired, and when I'm not, all I want is sex."

Elena laughed out loud. "I bet Jax loves that."

"Yeah." I slightly nodded. "But not when I wake him up in the wee hours of the morning."

"Jax is a guy… I can't see him getting pissed or annoyed when you're the one wanting it."

"Well, hopefully my sex craze will subside, at least for a little while."

"Girl." Elena laughed again. "You're crazy."

"Yeah, I know." I nodded.

"You going to the party for Bobby tonight?"

I shrugged. "Depends on how I feel."

"So, that's a no?"

"Maybe, I mean, if I don't make it for the party, I'm sure I'll see Bobby sooner or later."

"Yeah." Elena nodded. "I'll stop by for a few minutes, then just go home."

A few minutes later, I got up from my chair, and bolted up from my seat, to the bathroom, and threw up my breakfast into the toilet. God, it was gross. I heard the bell ring, when the door opened, but I stayed put, because I'm sure Elle can handle it. When I was finished, I walked out of the bathroom and saw Elena by herself, staring down at a card, with a weird look on her face. "What's wrong?" I asked.

"A guy wearing a white polo shirt, with a tattoo on his neck, gave me this."

"What is it?" I looked at the card in her hand.

"I guess there's a cigar shop opening up, nearby."

"He just came in to tell you that?"

"Yeah, but there was something very creepy about him." Elena shuddered. "Either way, I don't think I trust him." she put her hand on my belly. "Anyway, you feeling okay?"

"A little bit."

"Eat some crackers… saltines, it'll help."

"Okay." I nodded. "I'll try that."

"So, have you heard from Ope?"

"No." I shook my head. "After Donna's funeral, he's been M.I.A. but Mary and Piney's been watching the kids, and I don't think Jax has heard from him either."

"Poor Ope."

"Hey." I made a face. "Are you gonna be okay, by your… self?"

"You're that sick?"

I slowly nodded. "This baby won't let me keep anything down… I can't even eat any toast."

"Okay, well, go home, get some rest, and drink some apple juice or gatorade, plus, try and eat some crackers."

"Yeah." I grabbed my purse and and put on my sunglasses. "I'll give you a call later or something."

"Feel better, Mama." Elena gave me a hug. "I got the shop, so don't worry about it."

I let go and nodded. "Thanks, Elle." I walked towards the back door. "See ya."

"See ya!" Elena yelled back, then I walked out of the building, got into the Blazer, left.

...

I stopped at the supermarket to get some soup, crackers, and gatorade, before I went home. Jax wasn't there and Gemma had Abel, so I was going to spend the rest of my day with some peace and quiet.

As I was getting comfortable in the bed, I heard the door open and shut, followed by "Angel, you here?"

"I'm in the room, Jax!" I yelled.

He walked in with a concerned look on his face. "I went to visit you at work, but Elena said that you went home sick." he sat down on the bed next to me. "Are you okay?"

"Yeah." I nodded. "It's just from something I ate, I'll be fine."

"You sure?"

"Yeah." I grabbed his hand. "I'm just gonna rest."

"Are you going to the party later?"

"I doubt it, but I know I'll see Bobby eventually… I just don't feel good."

"Okay." Jax nodded. "I'll tell him you said hi."

"Thanks."

Jax gave me a kiss on my forehead, then stood up. "Ope's coming home today, so I'm gonna go over there."

"Oh, okay, tell him I said hi too."

"A'ight." he smiled. "I'll give you a call later." he headed towards the door. "Bye, Baby."

"Bye, Jax." I told him, then he walked out. Once I heard the front door shut, I turned on the TV, closed my eyes, and went to sleep.

...

"Oh, no." I thought to myself, as I sprang out of the bed, and ran into the bathroom, to throw up everything that was in my stomach, into the toilet. I will be glad when this morning sickness is over. Period. A few minutes later, after I flushed, I heard Gemma's voice, so I got up, rinsed out my mouth, and followed it. I saw her in the rocking chair holding Abel. "Hey." I walked in.

"Not going to Bobby's party?"

"Nah… you can go, I'll watch Abel."

"I just came from there, so I'll probably go home." she looked up and made a face. "Angel Baby… not to be mean or anything but, you look like shit."

I chuckled a little, leaning up against Abel's crib. "Yeah, I, uh… it's food poisoning."

"Food poisoning, huh?" Gemma got up and put Abel in his crib, then faced me. "So, does Jax know?"

"Know what?" I asked, trying to play dumb, which was impossible, with the look Gemma was giving me. "Alright." I took a deep breath. "No, Jax doesn't know… yet."

"How come you haven't told him?"

"I'm just waiting for the right time."

"How far along are you?"

"About fourteen weeks."

Gemma put her hand on my belly and smiled. "I knew, one day, you and Jax would give me a grandbaby."

"Oh, you did, did you?" I laughed, then nodded. "Well, you'll have it, in five and a half months."

"This is good news." she gave me a hug, then gave me a kiss on the cheek. "You gonna be okay, tonight?"

"Yeah, I'll be fine. I mean, spending time with Abel… gives me practice."

"Okay." Gemma smiled.

"Hey, could you not tell Jax or the guys about the baby?"

"My lips are sealed." she headed towards the door. "Oh, and by the way, Neeta starts tomorrow morning to help a little bit with Abel."

"Okay, that's fine."

"Goodnight." she told me, then walked out of Abel's room.

After I heard the front door shut, I looked down at Abel, who was smiling up at me. "Hey, Mr. Man… you're gonna be a big brother." he giggled, then I covered him up with his blanket, and kissed him on the cheek. "Goodnight, little guy." I turned on the mobile, above his head. "Sweet dreams." I walked out, checked the house, and laid down on the couch to watch some TV.

...

I heard the door open and shut, followed by whiskers kissing my lips. I kissed back, then my eyes shot open. "Hey, Babe… you just get home?"

"Yeah."

"What happened to the party?"

"Saw Bobby… didn't feel like staying."

"Oh." I nodded, watching Jax take off his cut and gun holster. "What's wrong?"

"I'm just tired. I'm gonna take a shower." he bent down to give me a kiss, then I watched him walk down the hallway.

I stretched looking at the time, then I went to check on Abel. Yep, sleeping like a baby. I walked into the room, then into the bathroom, and watched Jax in the shower, staring at his Reaper tattoo. Damn, these hormones, going into full drive. I couldn't tell him that I wanted it, because I can tell, there's something bothering him. I picked up his clothes off the ground and as I was about to put them in the hamper, I noticed a bandana with blood, and with my heightened sense of smell, the smell smacked me in the face.

"W-what is this?" I asked, as Jax put a towel on his lower half of his body.

He took it out of my hands and tossed it in the trash. "I helped Opie kill a man today." I just stared at him. "Retaliation for Donna. Shot him in the head." I just stood there, not knowing what to say. "I'm going to bed." he told me, before walking out of the bathroom.

I slowly walked in and saw Jax laying in bed. I crawled in, wrapping my arms around, cuddling with him. "I love you." I whispered. "No matter what you do for the club, nothing will ever change the way I feel about you." I paused. "You know that."

"Yeah, I know." he nodded, kissing my hand. "I love you too." I smiled, covering up a little with the blanket, closed my eyes, and both of us went to sleep.
