You wake up from a soft tap on the shoulder. "Hmm?" You ask, rubbing your burning eyes. You know that moment when you just wake up, and for a split second you forget about every horrible thing that happened before your eyes closed? That's how you feel, until it all comes rushing back and hits you like a tsunami.
"We need to get you inside." Sam says, motioning you over to him. You take notice of how he wraps his large hands around your waist, and gently helps you out of the car before steadying you. Tears are still in your eyes, and you feel even more coming.
Sam notices the look in your eyes, and gently places his warm hands on your shoulders. "It's gonna be ok, he's gonna be ok. And we are going to do everything in our power to bring the man who hurt your family, down. I promise, and I don't break promises." He says, his hazel eyes full of truth as he looks down at you.
You nod, sniffling, before he wraps his strong arms around you and pulls you into his embrace, walking with you to the entrance of the 'Imperial.' Jax, Christo, and James, follow close behind, before closing the large double doors to the front of the house.
Jax comes by your side, and gently pulls you to him. "I'm going to go and get her settled, she's still in shock and needs to rest." He says to Sam. He nods, before looking down at you and giving you a gentle smile. You mouth a 'Thankyou' before going up the stairs.
You get to your room, and all of your emotions hit you at once. You collapse on the bed, your face in your hands as you begin to sob. "Oh honey, come here." Jax says with a sympathetic voice, sitting next to you and pulling you to him. He smells like roses and mint, a scent that is very comforting at this time.
He rubs your back, resting his cheek on the top of your head. "My dad is g-gone, and the last t-time we saw each other, it was pure a-anger. And he was involved with this? He was an agent? Was that true? Oh my god, I don't even know my own parents, are any of you even telling me the truth?" You say, trying to process everything.
"Take a deep breath, everything will be explained to you afterwards. We are here to keep you safe, your father was not only one of our best but he cared about you so much. It's very complicated, but I promise you will know everything when it is safe for you." He says, giving you a soft yet serious look.
"Is my whole life a lie?" You ask, tears flowing down your cheeks. Jax slumps, swiping your cheek with the pad of his thumb. "Don't worry right now, it's too much for you too handle tonight." He replies softly with a solemn tone.
Suddenly, you both hear a noise, a frantic voice from downstairs. You both turn towards the door, eyebrows furrowed. Your eyes widen, your heart swelling as you realize the voice belongs to Bill. You can hear him yelling "Is she ok? Where the fuck is she, she didn't get hurt did she?!" You stand, running to the door and stumbling down the stairs as fast as you can. Jax keeps up, relief flooding through him.
