Jax and I pulled up outside Tig's house around 7pm and I sighed realizing I had never been to his place before.

"Can you please behave?" I asked as I got off the bike and Jax sighed but nodded.

"I promise. Just promise me that whatever is said tonight, you take with an open mind?" Jax said and I nodded.

"I just don't know how bad this can be that you all are freaking out about it." I said and Jax just shook his head. We walked up to the front door and knocked. I was shocked when a woman around my age opened the door. She looked at me and then smiled at Jax. Then back to me.

"You must be the daughter..." she said, and I looked at Jax. I didn't like how she smiled at Jax.

"Yeah...and you are?" I asked annoyed.

"She's leaving." Tig said waking up. He smiled at the girl.

"Should I come back later?" She asked Tig as he kissed her.

"I'll call you." Tig said and I cringed. We walked in as she walked out. Tig shut the door.

"She is like my age, that's gross!" I said and Tig just looked at me.

"I have needs Jules."

I stuck my fingers in my ear.

"Eww la la la la la I don't want to hear this!" I yelled causing Jax to laugh and Tig to roll his eyes and walked away. Jax removed my fingers from my ears.

"You think it's easier for me knowing what my daughter and a guy I have watched grow up are doing?!" Tig asked as we sat in the living room, and I laughed.

"Yeah well at least we are the same age bracket." I stated matter-of-factly.

"Okay enough sex talk." Jax said.

"Yes please." I pleaded. Jax and Tig shared a look.

"When do we talk about it?" Jax asked.

"After dinner." Tig said and I groaned.

"Stop acting like I'm not here."

"We aren't saying that Jules, we just want to make sure we have a game plan." Tig said and I half nodded. Tig walked into the kitchen to continue cooking. I kissed Jax on the cheek and followed.

"Need any help?" I asked arriving in the kitchen. Tig looked at me and smiled.

"No, I got it." He said but I walked in and sat at the kitchen island.

"You know, I really am happy we are doing this. I want you and Jax to learn how to get along. You both are going to be in my life now. You sit and talk about how you want me safe. You both need to get along." I explained and Tig nodded.

"I'm really trying Juju." Tig said causing me to look at him oddly.

"Juju?" I asked and he looked at me.

"Something I called you when I saw you after you were born." Tig said turning his head from the stove and smiled at me.

"Can I ask about that day?" I questioned causing him to smile.

"There isn't much to say honestly..."

"Just something..."

"Well like I said before you were crying your head off, giving your mom a problem. I walked in and picked you up. You instantly stopped crying and just looked at me in my eyes. I knew then I was a goner with you."

"But you never came around...I know why you didn't and I'm not harping on that, but you say you were a goner yet nothing from you." I said and he sighed.

"A mistake I wish I could fix." He said. I got up from the stool I was sitting on. I walked over to him and hugged him. He held me to him.

"I'm here now dad." I whispered and I felt his whole body relax. We broke apart when Jax came rushing in.

"We need to go."

"What's going on?" Tig asked.

"That situation...that person. They were spotted around the body shop and club house." Jax said and Tig turned off all the food in the stove.

"Stay here." Jax said.

"Can't I go?" I asked and Tig shook his head.

"No, stay here. We will be back later." Tig answered. He kissed the top of my head. Jacob walked over giving me a small kiss and they were both gone. I just looked around unsure of what I was supposed to do...I didn't want to be here alone, but I looked out the window and saw Jax and Tig were gone but there was a prospect sitting outside and I groaned.

I looked at the food and saw what Tig was cooking, I decided to finish cooking the food and then pack it all away after I helped myself to it. I was hungry and I wasn't going to eat alone. As I plated up my food, I opened the door.

"Kip, come get some food." I said and inviting him in from where he was sitting out front. He smiled as he walked in.

"Thanks Jules." He said and I nodded. We sat eating in silence and then I looked at Kip.

"Where did they go? I know what Jax said..."

"I don't know Jules, I don't know much about anything that goes on with the club. All I know is I was here to watch you." Kip said and I nodded. I knew he followed Jax and I there so Jax had a feeling something was happening.

"Fine..." I said. We finished eating in silence and I walked into the living room once I did the dishes and watched some tv. Soon it was late, and I was tired. I went searching down the hallway in Tig's house to see if he had a spare room. I saw pictures hanging on the wall as I did, and I stopped a little shocked.

All the pictures of me that my mom had sent him over the years were hanging on the wall, they were placed in order. I just slightly shook my head, this had to be hard for him. Holding pictures of me in the privacy of his own him and never letting anyone see the daughter he obviously loved so much.

I gave him so much shit, I gave him so much crap. I have seen enough just in the past few weeks that's this life wasn't something to bring in outsiders too. I got brought it by complete surprise, but I was accepted and quick. My mom never would have been able to deal with this life and Tig's way of living. I sighed and then found a spare room and walked in getting undressed down to my bra and panties, so I didn't have to sleep in my jeans. I crawled into bed and fell fast asleep feeling an overwhelming sense of comfort being here at my dad's house.
