A Fathers Love ⭐️

Chapter 20

After I dropped everything off at the house and put it all away, I headed to the autobody shop. Once I parked Jax came over and I smiled as he opened my car door and gave me a small kiss.

"Your dad was just asking where you were thinking I ran you off already." Jax said and I gave a small laugh.

"No, sorry. I ran into someone I knew at the store." I said and Jax looked at me a little confused. "I do know people around town Jax...I'm from here." I said and he sighed like he forgot but nodded.

"I know, I'm sorry I sometimes forget all about that point." Jax said and I just gave a small laugh.

"Yeah well, be sure not to." I said and he laughed as we walked into the garage, and I saw my dad talking.

"Hey, sorry I had to go to the store." I said walking up and hugging my dad.

"Just worry about you kiddo." He said and I shook my head.

"No need to worry. I was at the grocery store, ran into someone I knew who I hadn't seen in a while and now I'm back here." I said. The way I said something made Jax and Tig look at me oddly.

"Who did you run into?" Tig asked.

"Oh, this guy mom dated for a while. Eddie." I said. Before I could say or do anything else Gemma came out of the office.

"Jules, can you come in and check something over that just showed up in the books?"

"Yeah, sure." I said. I kissed Jax's cheek, smiled at my dad and walked away.

***JAX POV***

I watched Jules walk away and growled once she was gone.

"Didn't she have a tail?!" Tig asked pissed off.

"She asked me not to have one." Jax mumbled.

"Oh, I'm sorry does she make the rules now?!" Tig growled.

"No but she also still wants a semi normal life, I thought going to the store would be the one place she could have that." Jax said and Tig just shoved him, Jax shoved back which turned into a punching and shoving match.

***JULES POV***

I was in the office with Gemma looking over something trying to figure out if it was club related or autobody shop related when I looked out the window in the office to the garage and saw Jax and Tig shoving each other.

"What the actual fuck..." I growled and rushed out of the office. Opie and Bobby were pulling Tig and Jax away from each other by the time I got outside. I went and stood in the middle.

"I'm tired of this between you two! I don't know if this was about me or not but since I seem to be your only common ground its kind of obvious. I can't do this anymore! You both need to realize I love both of you and you both mean something to me but this constant coming to blows over me is done!" I yelled. Everyone around was looking at me but I only had eyes flicking between Jax and Tig.

"Jules..." Tig tried to say and reach for me, but I yanked away from him and Jax as well as he was trying the same thing.

"Figure this out as adults, as grown ass men because if you can't I swear to god I'm done with all of this shit! All. Of. It." I said and walked away. I took my keys from my pocket and walked to my car. Before I could get in my car, I felt someone grab my arm and turned to see Tig standing there.

"Hey, we need a have a serious conversation about this Eddie guy. Do you think you could come over for dinner tonight and we talk?" Tig asked and I looked back at Jax and Clay who were now standing there watching.

"Why does it seem there is so much you all need to tell me?" I asked and he sighed.

"This life can hold a lot of secret and a past Jules. I think it's time you find out." Tig said.

"Can Jax come to dinner?" I asked causing Tig to grumble. "Please?"

"Yes, he can come. Please just don't leave right now. Stay and get some work done." Tig said and I sighed but nodded and he looked at me.

"I love having you here with me where I work. I never thought I would get to spend days with you." Tig said and I sighed looking at him with a small smile.

"You just wish I had better taste in men..."

"I won't lie and say no. I should have known you would have gone for someone here. Did I think it would be the president's stepson and my best friend's step-kid, no but I think I'm going to have to get over it." Tig said as we walked back to the garage area.

"And you are. I love Jax. There is nothing that is going to change that." I said. Tig looked at Jax and just gave a small nod. I sighed and decided to let them have their talk as I went back to the office. Gemma walked in with me and smiled as I sat down.

"What?" I asked.

"Here I thought I was going to have to get you to toughen up and show these men whose boss but look at you. Already have 2 around your finger willing to bend to whatever will you want them to." Gemma smirked at me, and I laughed.

"I don't think that I'm just tired of Tig thinking he can tell me what I can and can't do when he was never around." I said and she sighed.

"Sweetie, he just cares." Gemma said and I nodded.

"I know..." I said.

"What was this all about anyway?" Gemma asked and I sighed.

"I ran into my mom's old boyfriend at the grocery store. He is back in town or something, I guess. He wants to have dinner sometime. I guess it wouldn't hurt." I said and Gemma sighed but nodded.

Gemma didn't know what to say since she knew like everyone else involved knew who he was, but it wasn't worth getting into now. She knew the guys would tell her eventually...wouldn't they?
