Chibs | This Life | Tig | Sons Of Anarchy || Book One

Caring Deeply

The moment Chibs walked into the Club house after his helping Jax he found Juice at the bar.

"Hey Juicy boy!"

Chibs called out as he walked over and patted the boy on the back. It wasn't until he seen Juice's expression did Chibs's face aquire a frown.

Juice seemed upset over something. Just then Opei, Jax, and Bobby all walked inside and went up to the tables that were near the bar.

"Oi, what's tha' matter with you?"

Chibs asked as he stood beside the young man. Juice just shook his head as he looked down at his hands that were laid upon the counter.

"Doesn't really matter."

He nearly whispered causing Chibs to take a seat next to him at the bar. Chibs had his body turned toward juice and have one hand on his knee while the other laid stretched out across the bar.

He looked at the boy confused and his mouth slightly agate as he wanted to know what had the poor guy so down.

"Oi, boy-o ya just got out of the hospital. Ya shouldn't be mopping about, ya should be happy!"

Juice just scoffed and shook his head looking to Chibs.

"Yeah, I guess."

Chibs noticed then that his eyes were red -- had Juice been crying? Chibs tapped the boy's shoulder and motioned for him to head into the kitchen and away from the guys that were chatting at the table paying no mind to the two at the bar.

Juice seem to understand what Chibs wanted and got up and walked into the kitchen having the older man followed behind.

When they got to the kitchen juice leaned up against the far wall away from the door. Chibs walked in and leaned up against the counter beside the fridge next to Juice. Chibs crossed his arms over his chest and looked at the boy with a questionable gaze.

"Mind tellin' me what's wrong now?"

Juice side and crossed his own arms over his chest. He looked back and forth in the kitchen as if trying to find something to allow his eyes to fall upon as if for a distraction.

"I went to lunch with [Name] today." A smile came to his lips. "We went to the diner and had a great time. I -- I had a great time with her."

Juice said stuttering. Chibs caught on to the boy's nervousness quickly, but said nothing as he allowed him to continue.

"I really enjoy being around her. She's fun and she's -- she's really cute. And I was gonna, kinda, ask her out to dinner sometime just the two of us --"

Chibs felt his heart wrenching together. He felt bad for the boy, not knowing that Juice had a crush on [Name], the young woman he had just had an amazing make out session eith a few days ago.

He frowned deeply this whole conversation taking a turn for the worse the more he listened. He wanted nothing more than to stop juice right there and tell him what had happened between him and her.

He had never felt so sorry for anyone in his life as much as he felt for the boy right now. He knew that she was attractive and that juice was right she had a great personality, but what you didn't know was that Chibs enjoyed that part of her as well.

"But then Tig came up to me as I was talking to her and he -- he grabbed me by the back of my kutt and ripped, literally ripped, the two of us from one another."

Chibs took a moment after the boys pause. Had he just heard him right? But it had came up and ripped the two of them apart from their conversation? He leaned over slightly and looked right at Juice.

"He did wot?"

Clearly he must have heard him wrong?

"Yeah, believe me I was just as shocked as you. And then he yelled in my face to stay away from her. He was super pissed, I'd never seen him like that before."

Chibs just continued to look at the boy baffled as he leaned back on the counter and just looked at him wide-eyed and confused.

Surely Tig wasn't -- there was no way.

"Have either of you seen [Name]?"

Just then Gemma popped her head into the kitchen asking them booth. Juice nodded quickly toward the woman.

"I think she's in her room."

He informed her. She thanked him and left the kitchen. She had just heard about the whole incident between [Name] and her mother from Clay and wanted to check up on the girl and make sure she was okay.

As Gemma walk down to her room she had to walk past Tig's because hers was at the far end of the hall. As she got to the end she knocked on the door and waited for a moment. When no answer came she opened up the door slowly and peered her head  inside.

When she noticed the room was empty she placed her hands on her hips. Then it dawned on her that Clay had told her that he had put Tig in charge of protecting her. So if anybody knew where she was Tig had to be the one to know.

She closed the door and walked down the hall to Tig's room and opened it up. What she saw next shocked her greatly.

There laying on the bed naked as day was [Name]. She had her legs out and up as Tig held them tightly looking as if he was preparing to enter her right as she opened the door.

Tig's gaze shot over to the door as well as [Name]'s as they both stared at her like a deer in headlights.

Gemma gasped and put her hand over her mouth as she was unable to take her eyes off of the couple on the bed. Never would she have thought this would have happened.

And honestly, neither had they.
