8 Mile (H. Lowman)

Chapter Twenty Five

A week later, Haven got herself a visitor's spot to see Happy. She needed to talk to him and see where they were on their relationship. She definitely needed some type of affirmation, after what happened before he went to prison, as well as while he was in prison. She wanted to know what he felt after what happened a week ago because of Tara.

Speaking of Tara, Haven had to hold herself back from attacking her. Paul informed her that it would make the articles worse if she did attack Tara. Also, if she attacked Tara, it would make their lawsuit against her void, if she made one worse.

Anyhow, Haven made sure to be ready early, so she wouldn't be late to the visitation. She had even made sure that she wore something more covered than she normally would. She didn't want to be recognized as easily, since she didn't want anyone to be able to put up an article that she was visiting a prison. Her father had already taken down all the articles and tried to diffuse the situation, but they didn't exactly need her making it worse by being too obvious.

She wore a pair of black skinny jeans, a pair of dark grey combat boots, and a white cropped top. Over that, she wore her father's old grey hoodie. He had let her borrow it one time, and she never gave it back. She also brought a black baseball cap, that she hoped she could get the cops to let her wear.

The entire drive to the prison, Haven thought about what she could say to Happy. She had questions, and she wanted to know the answers to them. When she arrived at the prison, she felt a little nervous going inside. She wore the hat and her sunglasses all the way to the door, before she took them off to go inside.

Haven signed in for visitation, and waited for the exact time to come. When Haven signed in for visitation of Happy, she was asked to do a pat-down, as well as walking through a metal detector. They were simply worried that she was going to carry in some type of weapon for the guys.

"What are you doing here?" Happy asked, as Haven sat down in front of him.

"I wanted to know if we were okay. We left things on a shit moment, and I didn't want to assume anything." She said, and he sighed.

"After the shit I heard," He frowned,"You could've gotten us all put under more charges than we are now."

"I got Paul to handle that," She replied,"and I'm suing the person who did that, and so is my dad."

"Doesn't change the fact that the whole club could've been shit on." He spat, making her jaw tighten.

"I told you, I handled it." She retorted, and he scoffed.

"Who was it?" Happy asked,"Who told someone?"

"Tara," She answered,"She told a magazine, and she sent them pictures."

"Did she admit to it?" He questioned, his jaw tightening.

"My lawyer advised me not to speak directly to her," She replied,"but she didn't deny it. Matter of fact, there was a file on my desk, and in it, there was papers saying that if I dropped the lawsuit, the person would come out and say they lied. Now, I can't trust that, not even if I thought she was telling the truth. I'm keeping my lawsuit."

"Jax didn't mention who it was," Happy murmured,"but I agree, keep the lawsuit. It might teach her to stay the fuck out of our business."

"So," She sighed,"are we good?" She asked, making Happy frown.

"I think it'll be best if we take some time apart." He commented, making her look at him with wide eyes.

"What?! Why?!" She quietly exclaimed, causing him to sigh.

"Our lives don't mix," He answered,"and even if they did, I don't think your dad would want you stuck with a criminal all your life."

"It doesn't matter what my dad thinks!" She almost cried,"I want to be with you!"

"It's what needs to happen," He replied,"but when I get out, we might be able to try this again. I don't know, I need time to think."

"I can't believe you!" She spat,"You wanted to be with me. I got your crow, then all of a sudden you get your ass in prison, and you wanna dump me? You wanna fuck me over because your life is shit?" She scoffed,"My life isn't perfect either. You'll never be happy if you continue to push people away. I mean honestly, I feel sorry for you. I feel sorry for whatever woman is stuck with you, since you obviously don't want it to be me."

Haven stood up, and she gave Happy an angry glare. When she looked up, she seen Jax's eyes on her. She raised her hand and gave him the finger, before she turned and started to leave.

"Haven!" Happy exclaimed, as did Jax.

"What the fuck did you do?" Jax questioned, giving the man a glare.

"I did nothing." Happy retorted, but Jax simply scoffed.

Jax knew Happy fucked up, but he didn't know how. Whatever he did had made the girl pissed at Happy, but she also seemed pissed at him. Jax didn't need shit blowing up. He was going to have to talk things out with Haven, even if that meant going behind Happy's back...
