Leather & Lace: A Sons of Anarchy Fanfic

Chapter 13

Jax watched Tinsley as she headed inside. He decided tonight was the night he was going to tell her just who he was. He knew that old ladies only made it in this life one of two way. Either they knew everything or they knew nothing. She wasn't going to give her the gory details tonight but he could at least give her a heads up as far as what he does. That way she could decide if this was what she really wanted. Putting his bike into gear, he pulled out of the lot and drove to Wendy's apartment just wanting to get this over with. Part of SAMCRO's deal with the town was to keep it drug free. Even though Wendy lived on the out skirts, it was too close for comfort for the members of the community. Jax needed to find where Darby was cooking. It had to be local. He had found out that one of the guys Wendy was fucking was hanging and dealing out of a dive bar in Lodi. Granted Lodi wasn't Charming, but it was close enough that thr druggies could get their fix without having to drive far to do it. He decided he would get the club on it tomorrow and see if they could find out where Darby was dealing and cooking.

Pulling into the parking lot is Wendy's apartment, Jax parked his bike and dug his keys out of his pocket. He had kept a key on his key ring so he could check up on Wendy but he never used it. He wondered if he had used it, would she be in the shape she was in right now. Would Abel be in the shape he's in? Jax knew for a fact he wouldn't be here cleaning up her shit had he just checked up on her. He knew what happened wasn't his fault but he needed to blame someone and letting Wendy take all the blame just didn't feel right.

Unlocking the door, he walked into one of the nastiest places he had ever been in. The smell alone was enough to make a person puke. Wendy was never a good house keeper but this was beyond belief. It looked like an episode of hoarders. There was trash piled on every surface of the house. The sick was full of dirty dishes. Roaches crawled across the kitchen counter. He even saw maggots crawling out of an old pizza box. As he pulled open the drawer beside the fridge, he looked for Wendy's stash and discovered a false bottom. Removing the false bottom, she found probably $300 worth of crank, needles, a pistol, weed, and rolling papers.

"Jesus Christ" said Jax, grabbing all the shit and heading to the bathroom. The bathroom was just as bad as the rest of the house. Hoping that the toilet flushed, he dropped one bad of crank at the time into the toilet. Then he dropped the weed in there. Praying that the toilet was in working order, he flushed the toilet and watched as the drugs went down the bowel. He stuffed the needles, the pistol, and the rolling papers in his kutte. Looking around the apartment one more time, he was flabbergasted by how Wendy been living. He knew he wouldn't be getting his deposit back on this one.

Locking the door, Jax headed across the parking lot to the dumpster and tossed the needles. He had no use for them. He thought about keeping the rolling papers but thought better if it because they could have came into contact with the crank. He smoked a little weed but he wasn't into the hard stuff like others were. After tossing the paraphernalia, be headed towards his bike. He was ready to get back to Tinsley and have that talk.

When Jax had left to go to Wendy's, Tinsley decided it was time for a bath. She walked towards the bathroom, stripping in her bedroom on the way. She stopped at the bathroom room sink and grabbed a hair tie and twisted her hair up to to a messy bun so it didn't get wet. Walking over to the tub, she turned the water on to almost scalding, placed her phone on the ledge of the tub, and slowly sank into the warm water. She figured the warm water and the scent of vanilla and lavender would help calm her down if nothing else. She still couldn't believe that she had went off on Wendy like she did. The bitch deserved every bit of it and then some. She turned on Spotify to some slow county music that she grew up on and slid down further into the bath water, lying her head back and closing her eyes, letting the smells and the familiar sounds calm her. She must have dozed off because the ringing of her phone startled her. She saw on the display it was Jax.
