The Mechanic

Part 57

It was the early afternoon when a knock on the door could be heard which Jax was the one standing on the front when I opened the door before I offered him to come inside. Heading into the guest room at the back of Tig's house, Jax and I placed ourselves on the bed that Rosie was currently sleeping on.

"I'm sorry just to turn up like this but I didn't really have much of a chance to see her the other day. God she really is beautiful " Jax smiled as he looked down at the baby

"You know you can see her whenever you want since I used to practically steal Nugget away from you when he was Rosie's age and yeah she is beautiful" I smiled back

"I know you've heard this alot lately but I've got something to tell you" Jax sighed

"What is it?" I questioned

"Last night Abel told me something that he overheard Gemma say. I got some truth from Juice this morning on the matter which I didn't want to believe but with Gemma running off confirmed it to be true. Gemma was the one that killed Tara not the Chinese guy that I tortured." Jax confessed leaving me not entirely sure that I heard him right

"I....erm.....what?" I stuttered

"I don't know why Gemma did that to Tara and I didn't believe it either but all the evidence points to her. I don't know how I am going be able to handle what Gemma had did. How could my mother do this to the women I love, the mother of her grandchildren" Jax began to sob

Without a second thought, I pulled Jax into a hug which he didn't waste any time in wrapping his arms around my waist which left moments to pass where we stayed in that position until Jax had managed to stop crying which left his face all red.

"What Gemma did will always be something that you will never fully understand why it had happened but what I do know is that it's not your fault. I don't think you realise how much of a good man you are and how much you or Tara didn't deserve this. Just by being best friends with you, you gave me this amazing family that had taken me under their wing with thinking otherwise which allowed me to create my own little family even if I did whack you across the head with my lunch box when we were little. I will be forever grateful for just knowing you, Jax." I softly commented before placing a kiss on Jax's cheek

Jax couldn't even find the words to say anything back which instead, he just placed a kiss on my forehead before hugging me again. Around an hour or two had passed since Jax had arrived which that time was spending in trying to distract him with Rosie's cuteness which did the job as best as it could considering before Jax decided it was time for him to leave which I walked him to the door before we said our goodbyes.
