Leather & Lace: A Sons of Anarchy Fanfic

Chapter 115

Tinsley has just gotten all the kids asleep when he cell phone rang.

"Hey Gem. Everything ok?" Asked Tinsley.

"You still up?" Asked Gemma.

"Yeah, what's up? You didn't answer my question" said Tinsley.

"I'm coming over. Give me five minutes" said Gemma.

"Ooookkkkk. What's the matter Gem." Said Tinsley.

"I'll tell you when I get there" said Gemma.

Without so much as a goodbye, Gemma ended the call. And true to her word, within five minutes, Gemma was pulling into Tinsley's drive.

"What's the matter Gemma" said Tinsley, meeting Gemma on the porch.

"Let's go inside." Said gemma.

"No, fuck that. I want to know what's wrong" said Tinsley.

"Come inside and have a seat. I'll tell you what I know" said Gemma.

"Gemma, I'm not kidding. I know by the way you're acting this has something to do with Jax. Just spit it out already." Said Tinsley.

"Ok. Jax and the guys are being held by thr FBI. Jax is being charged with attempted murder. They said he stabbed a guy. If the guy dies, Jax will be charged with first degree murder and the guys will be charged as accessories to murder." Said gemma.

Tinsley felt light headed and she felt like she wanted to murder the guy Jax supposedly stabbed herself. She felt everything from hurt to anger to astonishment to disbelief. Had she just heard Gemma right? Did she really say Jax and the guys were in FBI custody? Did she really just say that Jax was being charged with attempted murder? Did she really just say that he could be charged with first degree murder?

Yep! She had. This just keeps getting better and better.

Tinsley stood there in complete and utter shock. She couldn't get her brain to wrap around what Gemma had just told her.

"Tins, did you hear me?" Asked Gemma.

"Yea" said Tinsley.

"Come on. Let's go inside and get a drink" I'll tell you the rest of what little I do know" said Gemma.

Not having it in her to fight Gemma, she let gemma take her by the arm and lead her inside the house. Gemma say her down on the couch and went to the kitchen and fixed them both coffee.

Gemma returned carrying two cups of coffee took a seat on the couch beside Tinsley.

"So what happened Gem?" Said Tinsley.

"Well, I pulled into the lot and there was cops everywhere. They were loading the guys into the van when I finally got to the them. From what the FBI guy said, they have Jax on tape saying he was going to kill this guy. By the time the FBI raided the garage, Jax had shoved a knife in the guys stomach. He was still holding it when they came in." Said gemma.

"Who's the guy?" Asked Tinsley.

"No clue." Said Gemma.

"Jax called me earlier. He said it would be a late one for him but he didn't go into detail about why. I figure it was club business since he didn't say over the phone" said Tinsley.

"That's probably it. Has he said anything at all about what's been going on?" Said gemma.

"I know they have been looking for the guy who bombed the office. Maybe they finally got a lead on him" said Tinsley.

"That would make since if Jax did try to kill the guy" said Gemma.

"Hell, I want to kill him myself for hurting Jax" said Tinsley.

"Get in line sweetheart" said Gemma.

The two of them sat in silence for a while drinking their coffee and thinking about tonight's events. What was Tinsley going to do is Jax went away for murder? There was so doubt in her mind that she would wait all of eternity for Jax but would he try to push her away?

Gemma's phone started to ring.

"Hello?" Said Gemma.

Tinsley obviously couldn't hear the other end of the conversation so she listen to Gemma's side and watched her facial expressions.

"That's good isn't it?" Said gemma.

More silence.

"And what's that mean?" Asked Gemma.

Again, more silence.

"Ok. Thanks Sam. Call me if anything changes" said Gemma.

She hung up the phone and held it in her hand.

"Well?" Said Tinsley.

"That was Sam... Dr. Beckley. I called him and told him to keep me updated on the guy that was stabbed. He said the guys name is Ian McPhee. He's here from Belfast on a work visa." Said gemma.

The wheels in Tinsley's brain began to churn. Hadn't she ran into a guy in the grocery store named Ian? Hadn't he had an accent thag he was trying to hide?

"What is it Tins?" Said gemma.

"I'm not sure they are connected, but I ran into a guy in the grocery store the day I brought Jax home from the hospital. I think his name was Ian. He had an accent that he was trying to hide. That's the only reason it stuck out to me." Said Tinsley.

"You think it's the same guys?" Said gemma.

"It's too much of a coincidence not to be. Did you get a look at the guy when they were loading him the ambulance?" Said Tinsley.

"Not really. He had red hair. I could tell that much. Looked to be about the same height as Jax." Said gemma.

"The guy from the grocery store had red hair. And like you said, he was about the same height as Jax." Said Tinsley.

"You think he's the guy?" Asked gemma.

"Only one way to find out. Do you think your doctor friend would be will to get us in to see him?" Said Tinsley.

"I can convince him" said Gemma.

"Good. I'll call Neeta and Fay and see if they can watch the kids. Let's go find out who this son of bitch is" said Tinsley.
