Gracie's Story

I'm not Donna

~~~~~~~~~~~OPIE~~~~~~~~~~~~

I woke up in the lap of someone, for once maybe I wasn't dreaming of Grace, what if it was really her, what is she come home. Maybe it was Donna though and she didn't die after all. Or maybe I imagined seeing Gracie's face on some hooker, as I rolled over I saw a passed out Gracie, her red hair covering part of her face, I forgot how cute she was when she slept. He softly moved it out of her face causing her to go, "Shit, did I fall asleep?"

"Yea baby girl." He kissed my hand that was still entwined with his.

"Stop." Gracie said releasing my hand

"Why?" I asked look at her deep blue eyes. She looked hurt

"Because you just lost your wife. Go clear your head, not with me or cheap pussy either, take the bike for a spin, if we are suppose to work, I'll still be here waiting for you if you want to try this again." 

She gave me one of her intoxicating kisses before pushing me from the bed onto the floor. "If you aren't gone by noon I will let all hell loose Ope." she ordered walking out of the room and down the hall. Gosh why did I love her, why did she have to come and complicate my life now that I am without Donna.I started to pack my bags, about enough for a month and walked on into the bar area to find my beautiful Gracie serving eggs and toast.

"Aye, Gracie Lee, yer eggs keep gettin' better an' better." Chibbs stated between fork fulls of Gracie's famous breakfasts

"Thank Chibbs." she smiled one of her classy smilies, then looked passed Chibbs to me.

"Oh my God, Grace, how do you do this?" Juice asked, scarfing down some of his over easy eggs and buttered toast

"I totally taught her." Tig piped up

"Tig the first time you made us eggs you burnt them to a crisp, along with the stale toast." I piped up, snatching a piece of toast.
"15." Grace said, smiling as she did

"Better hurry Ope. I get to be your hell this time.... and I have a lot of fun things for us to try." Tig giggled with her

"Ok do I get..."

"No, 13" Gracie shouted With that I ran out the door, pack on my back, motorcycle under me, and a pretty girl waiting for me.

"Ok Ellie and Kenny, what would you like for breakfast?" I asked them every morning and every morning I got the same answer.

"PANCAKES." they scream, thus causing me to whip up pancakes for the two

"Hey Gracie, when is daddy coming home?" Ellie asked

"In 3 hours, 25 minutes, 40 seconds. Do I seem too excited?"

"yea but it's ok Gracie." Kenny replied as I heard a motorcycle engine cut, I figured that it was just Jax or someone from the club stopping for breakfast. 

"DADDY!" Ellie and Kenny screamed, jumping up from their pancakes and run towards the door. Opie dropped his things and embraced both his kids. After setting them down he looked at me and walked over embracing me. He whispered in my ear, "I have club stuff, can you watch the kids a bit longer?"

"Yea no problem." I whispered back as he kissed me, it reminded me of that first kiss, but unlike then we were being watched by two small children. When it finally stopped after two seconds I looked at his hazel eyes and listened to the kids gasp. He looked at mine, almost with a look of wanting more, so I spoke up, "Kids, do you mind giving your father and me a moment alone?" 

I listened as their feet scurry outside and shut the sliding glass door I asking, "So I guess you still want to try and make this work?"

"Of course I do, as long as I have you I feel sane. The whole time I was gone I missed her so much, but I also missed you, and the kids. I want us back." He whispered back pushing my hair behind my ear
