Love and War Don't Mix

Men Coming Home

I wake up around ten since it's Saturday and get up and get dressed. I go and wake Abel and Clarity and get them dressed. "Daddy coming home?" Abel ask. "Yea daddy is coming home." I say. Abel smiles but Clarity does not and I hug her then go back to cooking breakfast. Once done I fixed the kids a plate then sat the plates in front of Abel and Clarity and they eat then go brush there teeth and I do the same. "Y'all kids ready to go to the garage?" I ask. They tell yea and I grab there stuff and we go outside and get them in the car and put there bags in the back then got in an drove to the lot. I pull in and park then help the kids get out and grab there bags. "Can we go play till they get here mommy?" Abel ask. "Sure baby go play." I say. They run off to the playground and I go put there bags on the picnic tables and sit down. Soon Lyla and Gemma join me. "Baby girl are you ok?" Gemma ask. "Yea just thinking about what I'm going to tell the guys." I say. "Don't worry about it sweetie you need to stand up for your family and I will support you." Gemma says. I smile and then we hear bikes and stand up and watch them come in then they walk over to us and Jax wraps his arms around my waist and picks me up and spins me. I laugh then Abel comes over and gives Jax a hug and Clarity gives Jax a hug but then runs to Juice. Jax looks at me and I just shake my head and we sit down but I walk up to Clay. "We need to talk now the whole club in church now." I say. Clay looks at me then at Gemma and nods his head. "Church guys get your ass in there or deal with Rayna and Gemma." Clay says. "Better leave your phones as well." I say. They all looked at me shocked but do as me and Clay says and goes in setting there phones down on the pool table and going in. "Prospects stay with the kids Lyla get your ass in here." I say. They all do as I say and I close the doors and I look at Clay and he calls the meeting. "Gemma you want to talk first?" I ask. "No you go for it." Gemma says. "Ok I know old lady's have always been the ones to old back but I'm done holding back with all the stupid shit going on, I understand club stuff comes first but when my husband doesn't come home for a month I have a fucking problem especially when our daughter doesn't even want to talk to her dad there needs to be a change I would like my husband home as often as he can because of my daughter and son Clay I am not going to tell you how to run your club but he needs to be a father as well so does Opie and you need to be a good husband because I'm on the verge of fucking leaving and taking Jax to court so I can fucking leave this town and give my kids a better life than they do now." I say. They all stare at me shock and Gemma smiles at my outburst and Jax looks pissed and so does Clay. "I'm done here y'all decide I'm going to go spend time with my kids." I say. I walk out and go outside and go to my kids Lyla follows and looks at me. "You done good honey Gemma started going off after you left but in my option it's time for a change for the men." Lyla says. "It really is I know the club is there life but family needs to become life as well I mean I know your pregnant I want another one." I say. "How did you know?" Lyla ask. "Please girl I noticed when I was getting tatted that you was." I say. Lyla blushes and I just hug her then we turn as the one of the prospects comes out and over to us. "Rayna they would like to talk to you." Filthy Phil says. I nod my head and follow him inside and go into the meeting room. "Your right things do need to change so we are going to try and get it to where all men are home for dinner." Clay says. "Thank." I say. He closes the meeting and everybody leaves but Jax and me and he closes the doors and walks over to the table and leans up against it. "Why did you never tell me that Clarity didn't want to see me?" Jax ask. "You had to much shit on your shoulders Jax I didn't want you knowing that our daughter don't even see you as a dad because you have barely been there." I say. Jax drops his head and I walk over to him and wrap my arms around his neck and his wrap around my waist. "I wanted this church so I can have you come home to us Jax so you will realize that you have a family to take care of not just the club I told Clay I would stay out of it till you stopped coming home and you did all I want is you to come home and spend time with us." I say. "I know Rayna I will I'm coming home with y'all when y'all get ready and we can be a family again." Jax says. "Then let's go." I say. Jax smiles and we walk out and hug everybody and I hug Clay and thank him. "No problem I know it took a lot of guts to do that and I'm proud and I'm sorry I didn't keep my end of the deal." Clay says. "It's fine we got it fixed and you can now." I say. He laughs and me an Jax go get the kids and put them in my car and he follows us home and Jax instantly wants to show Jax stuff. "Abel honey why don't you help me and let Clarity spend time with daddy before supper." I say. Abel nods his head and Jax looks at Clarity. "Lead the way princess." Jax says. Clarity lights up and runs to her room Jax following her. I just smile and start fixing supper with Abel's help. Soon supper was done and we was all sitting around the table. "Abel want to say grace?" I ask. Abel smiles and says grace causing Jax to smile and we eat and talk then me and Clarity clean up while Jax and Abel play. Then it's time for there bedtime and we put them to sleep and I fall into the couch. "Some one looks tired." Jax says. "Oh really now." I say. Jax smirks and sits next to me and I cuddle up to him. "It's good to have you home." I say. "It's good to be home." Jax says. "Yea well you need a shower you stink." I say. "Care to join?" Jax ask. I smile and run to the bathroom and strip down and jump into the shower and soon Jax joins and we'll let your imagination run wild then we got done dried of and went to bed.
