AUTHORS NOTE: Sorry guys I just realised I hadn't given her a name!! I was just too keen on writing it! Haha. I added it to the first chapter.
As we pulled into TM everyone was outside waiting for us, including Tara. Gemma came rushing over to me "Oh baby! Who did this to you?" She pulled me into a hug and I couldn't keep the tears back. "I don't know ma, they had masks on" I sobbed. "Why didn't you want to go to the hospital?"
I stopped crying and changed the subject, I didn't want them to know yet. "Tara, can you please just check me over now, I'm so tired"
Everyone looked upset and they each kissed me on the cheek, letting me know that whoever did this they would get them.
"Lay down on the bed" Tara instructed. "Lift up your shirt first I'm going to check your ribs"
As I lifted up my shirt Tara gasped, I'm glad I had made Jax wait outside. "Is it bad?" I said as I peered down and my stomach which was turning black and blue. "I think you have at least two fractured ribs" as she pressed down on them and I let out a scream. I think that was all Jax could take as he burst into the room. "Babe what's wrong?"
"Jessie's ribs are broken" Tara said and I am going to need you to give her some privacy while I check the rest of her.
I put my head down ashamed of what happened, what if Jax doesn't want me anymore? Tara brought me back from my thoughts as she told me there was a tear down there and she was going to need to stitch it up. "I'm going to give you some strong medication to hopefully take away some of the pain, you will feel drowsy just let it work and you need to rest"
As Tara finished stitching me up and I pulled on some loose track pants Jax walked back in, he looked like a mess, his eyes puffy from crying. I held my arms out and he climbed into bed next to me and I held him as tears ran down my cheeks. "I promise you Jessie I'm going to get those sons of bitches who did this to you". I nodded silently as he looked up at me. "I love you" he said with complete raw honesty and I knew he meant it. "I love you to" I cried. "Never stopped".
I fell asleep in Jax's' arm but it was not a peaceful sleep, masked men haunted my dreams and I dreamt Jax never found me. I woke up drenched in sweat I looked over to see Jax sleeping peacefully next to me, how is it that with everything he has seen he can sleep like nothing has happened.
I snuck out of bed, it was about 5 in the morning and I walked into the bathroom and carefully got undressed. I just stared at myself in the mirror. I've been back 5 minutes and I'm already wrapped up in club shit. But Jax promised he would kill them and maybe everything will be ok after that. But that was wishful thinking. Right now Jax wanted me back and I just hope it stayed like that because I can't even imagine what would happen if we fell apart again because it almost killed us last time.
I turned on the water and let the hot water fall over me washing away the bad things that have happened I didn't want to fall apart again but I knew I had to face reality soon but I just wasn't ready to think of it yet.
