Gracie's Story

Fast forward to Belfast

"We're going to Belfast!" I said, hurrying to throw everything together in a pack.

"No, you're staying, I'm going." he said back trying to take the bag from me

"My nephew, I'm going, not for you or me, but Jax."

"Clay will never..."

"Clay can suck Tig then, I'm going."

"You are so stubborn."

"And I'm going to Belfast, when do we go?"

"Six, be ready by then or else."

As I got out of the car and onto the cargo plane, I couldn't help the excitement, this is the first not California trip Ope and I ever took. I grasped his hand while boarding and then when we sat down I leaned against his chest saying, "First vacation out of Cali, you excited?"

"Rather go to Huntington Beach." he joked

"But irish brew..."

"But cold, free, beer."

"Still excited." I repeated

I just want to find Abel. Even after joking about the vacation with Opie, we all knew the purpose of this, find my nephew. We were sitting in the room that Maureen provided us during our stay. I laid out like a star on the bed as Opie and the rest of the guys discussed the future plans. I was bored, I would go to the store but then I would get bored there too, or find Cherry and smoke some cigs and do a shot for the life of Half Sack, who died the day Abel was kidnapped. I sat up when I heard the door creak open, revealing Gemma, who ran away from the ATF bitch to get her grandson back. 

"Can I ask you something?"

"Oh course Gemma."

"Does it still hurt, after all this time that Opie was shagging Lyla?"

"Yea a bit, but it's in the past now."

"What if she had a kid with him? would it hurt worse?"

"Well I mean he had kids with Donna and that cool, but with Lyla it would still hurt, since the child would remind me that I was hurt by my love."

"Trinity is JT's daughter." She said

"Wait... no.....JT would never..."

"When I was watching my little Thomas die, he was making a little Trinity." Gemma said sitting on the bed.

"Is this something I shouldn't tell Jax?"

"Yea.""But what if he..."

"He won't shag her." 

Boy was she wrong.Later Gemma and Maureen would walk in on them almost doing it, but first Opie spilled the beans that Jax thought she was pretty. I then snatched the beanie from Opie's head and placed it on my own head, then taking the aviators off my nightstand and pretended to be a cool, silent kid causing him to smile. He leaned forward to kiss me, and then I asked, "So did you find Abel yet?"

"Maybe, but I will let Jax tell you, not my place. However it is my place to tell you that we will find him." I smiled a bit and then lit a cigarette , blowing the smoke straight up. He watched me with his hazel eyes as I reached out my hand to ruffle his hair,and stroke his bread. He was so handsome, sometimes you were in awe that such a beautiful giant could love you that much. You knew deep down that he still loved Donna, but at least he let you in and loved you. I leaned in closer to kiss him, which could have escalated to more if I didn't stop him, I looked at him and said, "Party later?"

"Only if a pretty lady will drink with me." Opie said smiling before getting off the bed

"Well if I am free I might." He leaned over to kiss my forehead and left me there, with the beanie, his scent, and his unborn child's empty cavern.
