On the Devil's Path {a SOA sequel}

chapter twenty-eight

"Sorry, I just couldn't help myself." I said with a small shrug.

He groaned as he pulled himself up to sit and crashed his lips to mine roughly.

"Never apologize for waking me up like that." He mumbled against my lips.

I couldn't help but laugh as I got up off the bed to find some clothes. Jax caught my wrist.

"Come back here and let me return the favor." He said, licking his lips.

I leaned over and kissed him quickly.

"You can make it up to me later, Baby. We have more important things to deal with right now." I told him.

Jax sighed in defeat and ran his hands through his hair. I still needed to tell Clay what I told the cops and we needed to get Jax to a doctor to check on his nose. After having to nearly pry Jax off of me, I managed to get a shower. I pulled my wet hair up into a bun and threw on some jeans and an old Harley shirt. Jax took his turn in the shower and I set out some clothes for him.

So I didn't get any more distracted, I made my way out into the kitchen. When I rounded the corner I just about jumped out of my skin. Gemma was sitting at one of the tables drinking coffee and playing with Abel.

"Oh! Gemma, you're here early." I said while clutching my chest.

"Good morning to you too." She said with a smirk.

I gulped and felt a blush creeping its way up my neck.

"H-how long have you been here?" I asked her.

She chuckled and raised an eyebrow at me.

"Long enough." She said.

I groaned and covered my face with my hands.

"Oh God."

My boyfriend's mother heard me giving her son a blow job. I was never going to live this down. Gemma laughed and handed Abel to me. I saw her gaze move over my shoulder and her smirk stretched her face wider.

"Sounds like you had a great morning." She said.

Out of the corner of my eyes, I saw Jax walking in with two steaming cups in his hands. He grinned at her and leaned down to kiss me hard on the lips.

"Damn right." He said once he pulled away, his eyes never leaving mine.

Gemma shook her head but smiled. Jax took Abel from me and gave his mother a kiss on her cheek. She reached up and touched his face gingerly.

"Christ, Jackson. You need to see a doctor." She said, wincing.

He just rolled his eyes and took a sip of coffee.

"I'm fine, mom." He said.

I gave him a pointed look and drank some of my own coffee. Jax sighed and shifted Abel to his other hip.

"Alright, I'll go. After I check on Ope." He said.

I smiled sweetly up at him and he shook his head with a smile.

"Well, I see you two worked things out last night." Gemma said.

I blushed and Jax let out a hearty laugh.

"Yeah mom, you could say that." He said with a smile.

He licked his lips and caught my eyes with his. They were darker than usual and it made me shiver. Suddenly, I couldn't wait to collect my payback. Gemma looked between the two of us and raised her eyebrow.

"A crisis always does make the sex better." She muttered to herself.

Jax and I both stared at her for a moment. She seemed to be thinking of something because she suddenly started laughing to herself. Jax just shook his head and passed the baby to me. The roaring sound of Harley's filled the air and soon the doors of the clubhouse swung open.
