Join The Club

Discovered Bones

Bayley couldn't begin to explain how grateful she was with all the help she was getting. Back in HB she had school, work, and being a single mom weighing down on her head. She loved taking care of Rei, but it was hard when you were on your own.

Now she has people who are willing to help her. They may be outlaws which sounds bad but Bayley felt like it wasn't her place to judge. She didn't know what they've been through and why they do what they do. Point is, they didn't have to do all these nice things for her. They chose to do it out of the kindness of their hearts. That's why she trusted and cared for them.

Which is also why she felt comfortable asking them for a favor.

The padded black doors to the club houses Chapel were closed. She figured Jax was just in there with Clay. Bayley slowly opened the doors. The moment the creaking was heard, all the guys turned their heads and stared at her. They were in the middle of Church, which was what they called an important meeting.

Oh shoot... "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to intrude. I'll come back later."

Clay knocked the gavel on the table they were sitting at. "It's alright. We were just finishing up." he swayed his hand forward, "Come in."

Bayley looked around, looking for Kip. "Where's my brother?"

"He's with Gemma." Jax told her. "What do you need, darlin'?"

Bobby got out of his seat and let her sit down. "I was wondering if I could borrow one of the vans over the weekend."

"What for?" Clay asked.

"I just need to go back to HB for a little while is all."

"Specifics." Tig said, leaning forward in his chair.

"It's nothing to be worried about, I swear. I'll just be gone for 2 days."

"You're not going alone." Juice told her.

"I know. Finn and another friend from school are coming with me- If I could borrow the van." she mumbled the last sentence while sinking into her chair.

"Not to be all up in your business," Happy began, "but we need to know so we can make sure you're safe and that you don't get into trouble."

Bayley sighed, making eye contact with Happy. "I know you're my real dad and all but I'm not a child and I can take care of myself. Nothing bad will happen to me."

"How can you be so sure about that?" Opie finally spoke. Bayley knew it was a bad idea for her to argue with him. The man just lost his wife. Donna probably didn't think anything bad would happen to her and she was killed.

She sunk deeper into the seat and looked down. "I don't.... It's just really private and I don't want to talk about it."

"You're free to tell us anything, sweetheart." Chibs assured, with his charming accent. "What's said in the Chapel stays in the Chapel."

Bayley bit her lip. She started debating if she should just drop the whole thing so she doesn't have to share why she wants to leave.

Jax gently placed his hand over hers. "It's okay."

She took a deep breath. "Rei's dad. His birthday's on Saturday. He was buried in HB and I just wanted to spend some time with him." Bayley paused when she started to get choked up. Opie got up and handed her a tissue box. "I wanted to take Rei with me so she could be close to him in a way."

The men gathered at the table stared at each other. "You can go into Gemma's office and ask for the keys." Clay instructed. "I'm sorry about your loss." she nodded, while wiping the tears from her eyes. "What happened to him?"
