Lana's pov
"Hey baby."Says the lady with a kind smile on her face. "I'm Gemma."
"Oh hi Gemma I'm Lizzy; nice to meet you."
"I'm-"
"Jax's mom?"
"You have a good memory I see."
"You really aren't what one might call forgettable..." I laugh and I can see that she apreciated the compliment.
"So how did you end up coming back to our clubhouse last night?"
"The guys invited me after my concert. Wait....no...not invited...made me come."
"They can be pretty convincing if they want to. So I guess you're not from town?"
"I'm from Manhattan."
She opens her eyes wide "Manhattan?!"
I nod
"And you came all the way from Manhattan to Charming?Why?"
"It's not like I'm moving here or anything; I'm just...visiting. My fiancee has some business in town so I just tagged along, figured it would be a great opportunity to promote my music."
"Smart girl. And talented too; you've been the main subject of any conversation since last night...everyone was amazed by your performance."
I blush "I'm starting to think no one in Charming has been to a real concert. I'm really not all that."
"Modesty suits you; but don't overdo it. Don't underestimate yourself...."
I don't know how to respond so I don't. I just start looking around the garden.
"You really impressed Jax. He liked you a lot; was sad that you left in the morning without saying anything."
"I didn't mean to be rude, I was just in a hurry and didn't want to wake anyone. I'm really sorry..."
"He's a big boy, he'll be fine."
"Now I really feel bad...I really am sorry. I hope I'll run into him in town and apologise..."
"You can come back to the clubhouse if you want, talk to him. Tig would like to see you too."
"Really?"
"Yeah. Let's go."
Jax's pov
"We would say he's strong enough for us to go in and perform his abdominal surgery. If we don't do it now we might not be able to later...It really is the only option."
I wish I could take his place. He just came into this shit world and has already suffered more than most people...I blame myself.
If only I hadn't separated from Wendy; I could have prevented all this. Maybe it's selfish of me to think like this but I'm sure this is some cosmic punishment for all of my mistakes...and it's the worst punishment of them all.
"Mr. Teller? Do you understand what I'm saying?"
"Yeah...just...just do what's best..."
"Would you like to see him before the surgery?"
How could I even look at him? What would I say to him? Hi buddy, I'm the reason why all of his is happening to you?
I feel tears start to gather in my eyes.
"Uhm no...I can't. I have something to do."
The nurse opens her mouth to say something but I leave before she can.
I have to see Wendy.
