Toxic Love

Game changer

I'd been home for just under 2 hours, there was still no sign of Jax. I'd tried to ring him and text, no answer. I was worried sick, who knew that was an actual thing. Being sick was becoming a regular thing for me. I'd be sick from the stress, my mind in overdrive worrying about Jax. It was hard at work, I was fighting to do my best but Jax was constantly on my mind. Taking my focus away from my job.

We were all sat in the living room, the usual lot and Tobs. The only person missing was Jax, I hadn't seen him since 6:30am and it was 9:30pm now, my mind was in overdrive. Looking round the room at everyone else, I could tell they were as worried as me. Jax was acting completely out of character but this was the first day he hadn't come home. Dread washed over me and I felt tears welling up behind my eyes, I blinked letting them escape. I couldn't sit here any longer.

I stood up "I'm going out to look for him but first I'm going to Uncle Tels" I say confidently, daring anyone to disagree with what I was proposing.

To my surprise, I get nods and agreements. They jump up too. I go to get my nikes on while they sort out who's doing what, I'm still in uniform but I don't care. I just chuck one of Jax's hoodies over my shoulders. Going back in the living room, the girls seem to be the only ones not getting ready to leave.

"Me and the girls are gonna stay here in case he comes back, we will let u know chick. Try not to worry, this is Jax. He'll be fine" T says but I hear the falter in her voice and see the unshed tears behind her eyes. I pull her into a hug, both of us letting the tears silently fall.

"Me and Levs are gonna come with you Em" Chris states. "Nate and Tobs are gonna go look and the other 3 will too".

"Ok then, let's go" I state. We file out of the house, the others split from us. Promising to let us know if they find him. We head down the road to Uncle Tels, arriving a few minutes later.

I walk into Tels house, ignoring everyone who isn't him. I walk straight into the kitchen, knowing he will be in there. He's in there with his usual groupies, including Mel. But I've got bigger things to worry about though.

"Hey princess" Uncle Tel calls out to me "Long time no see, where's Jax?"

"Actually Uncle Tel, that's why where here. Can we talk, in private" I ask.

Tel nods looking confused. He ushers the others out and motions for us to take a seat at the table, then he shuts the kitchen door. "What's going on?" He asks.

Levi looks at me and I nod at him, the last thing I need is to become an emotional wreck explaining what's going on to Uncle Tel.

"Since being out Jax hasn't been his usual self Uncle Tel, he's been hanging out with Cam Cole and his junkie friends. He's been smoking brown and he keeps standing Em up. Today he just hasn't come home... He was suppose to pick Emma up from work but we don't know where he is" Levi sighs out.

"Fuck. Why haven't you been down sooner? Please tell me he's not smoking your own stuff?" Tel says.

"No I hid it from him. He kept promising he was done. We thought we could stop him" I say, voice breaking.

Terry walks over too me, he pulls me into a hug "Dont worry Princess, you've done good. I know where he'll be, Wayne's, do you wanna wait here, it's not the nicest of places" he states.

I shake my head "No I'm coming" I tell him.

We all get up and Tel grabs his car keys. He has a word in the ear of one of his mates, before we head out the front door and to his car. I jump in the front, whilst the other 2 get in the back. Tel starts the car and we drive off. We pull up 5 minutes later in front of a block of run down flats.
