Im Coming Home

Chapter 4

The party was in full swing and I had talked to everyone, I was feeling a bit tipsy and exhausted i wasn't used to the time change yet and I just wanted to go lay down, but I couldn't bail on my own party. So I sat at the bar and asked for another beer. "So Harley how long have you and Jax known each other?" The prospect asked "um since we were like 4 or 5 he pushed a kid down that was picking on me at the playground and we just became best friends and were literally inseparable since, Opie too he was like the hugest big brother I've never had" I said laughing at Opies height compared to mine "where's your family I thought they would of been here" he asked I sighed "I don't have any. My parents put me up for adoption when I was a baby and I just bounced from foster home to foster home till I met the Miller's and they adopted me but they passed right before i was 15 in a car accident" I said taking a sip of my beer "that's terrible I'm sorry have you ever thought about trying to find them? Juice is really good at that kind of stuff" he mentioned "nah this is my family now I don't need anyone else, thanks for the offer though" I said standing up and walking over to Jax and Clay sitting on the couch "Every time I see you I just can't believe it's you" Jax said pulling me down to sit on his lap "it's pretty weird to be honest with you. I normally wasn't all to drink unless I was able to go to Maureen's for a night or two" I said taking a sip "why didn't you call sooner?" Jax asked. That must of been clays que to get up and walk away "I tried. A few times but I always got caught so I stopped for a long time and then Maureen handed me the phone one day and told me to call" I said he put his hand on my cheek "I'm sorry Harls I really am." He said genuinely I smiled "it's ok now, I'm home and the past doesn't matter anymore, I can live my life the way i want to and it's not dictated by anyone anymore" I said placing my hand over his we looked into each other's eyes for a few moments, Jax was called away by Gemma so I slid off him and let him go. As he was walking away he turned his head around and smiled as his bit his bottom lip. It drove me crazy.

I was so close to kissing Harley when my mother called me over to talk with her when I turned around and glanced at her I bit my lip, I wanted to kiss those lips so bad I wanted to do things to her I haven't done in many many years. "Hey ma what's up?" I asked "I think you should back off that, not start anything she's only been home a day" she said I rolled my eyes "ma, nothing is going on I promise and if there is you will be the first to know trust me" I said putting my empty beer bottle on the bar "ok baby I am just looking out for you that's all" she said kissing my cheek "I know ma" I said as I looked towards the door and saw Ima waltz in I sighed and knew this wasn't going to turn out well. I had been sleeping with her on and off for a few years now she clicked her heels right over to me "why wasn't I invited" she asked my mother chuckled a bit "you weren't on the invite list" Gemma said "I'm always on the invite list what's so special that I'm not on this one" Ima asked touching my arm "Harley came home today" Gemma said "who the hell is Harley I've never heard of that name before" Ima asked making a weird face "I'm Harley" Harley said walking over to us "oh this is going to be good" Gemma laughed knowing what could potentially happen "who the fuck are you" Ima asked Harley glared at her and took a sip of her beer "I've never seen you here whats so special about you that I wasnt invited" ima asked turning towards Harley "Oh honey I'm not special what so ever. But they know I wanted a close knit party which means no hoochies" Harley said Ima went to slap Harley but Harley caught her forearm "don't just don't" Harley said Gemma started laughing "alright Ima I think it's time to go" I said standing up "you don't need a stress relief tonight baby?" She asked coming closer to me and running her hands on my chest "no he doesn't." Harley said "excuse me he has all he needs right here he doesn't need you" Ima said. Something snapped I saw it in her eyes. With one punch Ima was laying on the floor. Harley stood above her "do yourself a favor and never show your face in this clubhouse again" Harley said spitting on Imas face, everyone who saw it was laughing as Ima got up and ran out of the clubhouse in tears. happy came over and hugged her "your one bad ass bitch Harley good to have you back! Let's drink" happy said signaling everyone over for shots.
