Chapter Twenty Nine

                                    

                                          
       I had been driving for a long time, maybe three days all together. That was with us stopping and staying at hotels though. We only stopped to sleep, and we stopped for bathroom breaks and food, the rest of the time we were driving. Anyhow, we had finally arrived in Charming, and I was excited to have the girls meet my family, but I was also nervous. I hadn't seen my family in so long. They probably missed me, but I was also afraid that they were mad at me. I just didn't want them to make a huge scene in front of the kids. Anyhow, I was lucky enough to remember where the clubhouse was, so I drove straight there and pulled in. I parked next to Gemma's car, hoping it didn't pull too much attention towards me. 
                          
"C'mon girls, time to meet some more family." I said, as I opened my car door. 
                          
      As soon as I stepped out, I seen Juice walking towards us. He looked at me for a moment, before gasping and running over to hug me. 
                          
"Kori! I can't believe you're here!" He exclaimed, and I laughed. 
                          
"Yep, and I brought my army with me." I replied, as I lifted Whitney up and the other girls came to my side. 
                          
"Five?" He gasped, and I smirked. 
                          
"Six actually." I said, as I rubbed my belly. 
                          
"Where's your ol' man?" Juice asked, and I bit my lip. 
                          
"Back home, taking care of some shit there. He should be here in like a week or so." I replied, and he nodded. 
                          
"C'mon, I'll bring you guys into the clubhouse." Juice said, and I smiled. 
                          
     We followed behind him, as he made his way towards the clubhouse. He opened the door and let us in first, before he walked around us and hollered for everyone to listen to him. 
                          
"Kori's back!" He yelled, before everyone looked over towards me. 
                          
     Jax and Opie were the first ones to race over to hug me. I was glad to have some love from the guys I left behind so long ago. I watched Clay walk outside of the clubhouse, before he brought Gemma back inside with him. She gasped when she seen me, before walking over and smacking the hell out me. 
                          
"Ma! What the hell?!" Jax exclaimed, before Gemma pulled me into a hug. 
                          
"I missed you. You were gone for so damn long." Gemma said, and I sighed. 
                          
"Well, I'm back. I just don't know for how long." I replied, and she smiled. 
                          
"So, who are all these kids?" She asked, and I smiled. 
                          
"These are all my kids. This is Marcela, but we call her Cela. This is Alaina, but we call her Lanie. This is Hailie, but we sometimes call her Hai-Hai. This is Emilia, but we call her Emi. This is Whitney, but we sometimes call her Whit. Finally, we'll have one more in about six months." I stated, as I rubbed my belly. 
                          
"Ellie and Kenny are with my ol' lady, but I can get her to bring them if you'd like to see them." Opie said, and I nodded. 
                          
"Well, of course." I retorted, and he smiled. 
                          
"I have two kids of my own. Abel is a year younger than Emi, and Thomas is a little over a year old." Jax stated, and I smiled. 
                          
"Well, I'm happy for you Jax. I'd love to meet them, if you'd bring them here." I replied, and he nodded. 
                          
"Where's their Dad?" Bobby asked, and I sighed. 
                          
"Taking care of some shit back home. He'll be here in about a week or so, hopefully." I answered, and everyone nodded. 
                          
"Oh, kids, I bet you guys would like to know everyone. That's Gemma, Clay, Juice, Tig, Chibs, Bobby, Happy, Kozik, Jax and your uncle Opie." I stated, leaving my Dad out of it, since I had heard he had died last year, as well as Opie's wife Donna. 
                          
      I was honestly surprised Opie had found someone else, since him and Donna seemed like soul mates. I honestly hoped Jax wasn't with Wendy anymore, I just don't know who I'd want him to be with. Soon, two little kids came running into the clubhouse, who I instantly recognized as Kenny and Ellie. They wrapped their arms around me, as I hugged them as well. 
                          
"We missed you Aunt Kori." They said, and I smiled. 
                          
"I missed you guys too." I replied, before Jax walked in with a little boy in his arms. 
                          
       A woman walked in carrying a baby, who I instantly realized was Tara Knowles, the woman who broke his heart so many years ago. I scowled and Gemma smirked, before Tara smiled brightly at me. Gemma took Whitney, which made me smile. Whitney instantly loved Gemma, which made my heart melt. 
                          
"It's so great to see you again, Kori, and all your kids. I've missed you honestly." Tara said, as she hugged me. 
                          
      I glared at Jax over her shoulder, and he rolled his eyes. 
                          
"Oh, here's Thomas. He'd love to meet his Aunt Kori." She said, as she handed me Thomas. 
                          
     He instantly melted my heart, as he laid his head against my chest. 
                          
"Aww, he's so adorable. Tara, you should be so proud. I hope my baby is going to be a boy." I commented, and Tara smiled. 
                          
"Well, most of the time, when a person has one or more children that are a certain gender, seventy five percent of the time, all their other children will be as well. I'd say you'd probably have a girl, but I bet a boy would be so much better." She replied, and I laughed. 
                          
      Abel looked at me intently from Jax's arms, before Jax looked at him and smirked, before handing him over to me. 
                          
"Well, hello handsome. What's your name?" I asked, and he blushed. 
                          
"Abel." He replied, and I grinned. 
                          
"That's a cute name." I commented, and he smiled with the blush still on his cheeks. 
                          
"Seems like Abel has a thing for Kori." Tig said, causing everyone to laugh. 
                          
"Who wouldn't. I'm hot as hell." I replied, and Jax smirked. 
                          
      Once I put Abel down, the kids all ran around and played, except Cela, who stayed by my side. I called Kenny and Ellie over, and surprisingly, Cela went off with them to hang out. 
                          
"You're a good mom, sweetheart." Gemma said, and I smiled. 
                          
"One question though. Who's Marcela's father?" Jax asked, and I sighed. 
                          
"Look, here's the thing. Emi is my only birthed child so far. Cela was my friend's kid, but when my friend died, she gave me custody and changed Cela's last name. Hailie, Lanie and Whit are Marshall's kids, but we share custody over all five kids. We had it done legally as well, that way we couldn't lose them to anyone." I stated, and they nodded. 
                          
"Cela looks mixed black though, and you know how we feel-" Tig started, before I cut him off. 
                          
"Actually, she's Puerto Rican and white, so watch your mouth, Jackass. I wouldn't care if she was black, I'm not a goddamn racist like everyone else. So, shut the hell up, I'd love her even if she was any other race." I spat, before going to stand up. 
                          
     I watched Opie punch Tig in the ribs, before Tig doubled over in pain. 
                          
"I'm sorry. Won't happen again." He sputtered out, and I smirked. 
                          
"You're right, cause next time I'll be the one kicking your ass, doll face." I retorted, and Gemma smirked. 
                          
      No matter what, I was defending my children and Marshall, even against my own family...
