Jax looked over at Aurora who was sitting on the curb in front of Opie and Donna's house "you don't have to do this" Jax sighed watching Aurora twist her hair anxiously "no I have to do this" Aurora stood and walked into the house "auntie!" Kenny yelled running towards his aunt "hi booger" Aurora bent down and swept her nephew into a bone crushing hug "momma's gonna to the good place now" Kenny mumbled playing with his aunts hair "yeah" Aurora's voice broke "she is" Aurora cleared her throat looking down the hall and seeing Ellie "I'll be right back ok bud" Aurora pat Kenny on the head before walking towards Ellie.

"Hi auntie rora" Ellie's little voice broke "hi bug" Aurora bent down and swept up the girl in a tight hug "I'm so sorry" Aurora whispered brushing hair out of Ellie's face

"Breakfast!" Mary hollered "come on bug" Aurora held her hand out for Ellie "ok" Ellie whispered softly grabbing her aunts hand "here" Mary said handing the two girls a plate,
Jax frowned watching Aurora set her plate back down "I'm gonna go see Op" Aurora told her mother before walking towards the back yard.

Aurora found her brother sitting outside in the grass "hey" Aurora whispered sitting next to him "hey" Opie replied handing his sister a cigarette "thanks" Rora nodded passing him her lighter "how you doing?" Aurora questioned "can we just sit in silence for a bit?" Opie questioned "yea" Aurora responded, and that's what they did until they had to get ready for her funeral.

The priest was droning on and on about god and the bible "if he says on more prayer I'm going to shoot myself" Aurora joked leaning over to whisper in Gemma's ear "wrong time and place" Gemma whispered side eyeing Aurora "right" Aurora nodded awkwardly, "Jesus Christ I'm gonna lose my mind listening to this" Jax whispered looking at Aurora "right" Aurora tiredly nodded "does this make us bad people?" Aurora questioned "what?" Jax turned his head to face Aurora "we find a funeral boring" Aurora stated "no. That doesn't make us bad people" Jax denied shaking his head "yeah I guess" Aurora leaned into Jax.

"Wanna get drunk?" Aurora asked Jax when they got back from the funeral "why the hell not" Jax shrugged "I was hoping you'd say that" Aurora grabbed a bottle of whiskey "we should play strip poker" Jax suggested "one problem" Aurora rolled her eyes "only card game I have is go fish" she continued "strip go fish then" Jax exclaimed "whatever"

"Got a seven" Jax asked "here" Aurora grumbled "ha! Gimme your sweater" Jax held his hand out "jokes on you I have a top underneath" Aurora handed her sweater to Jackson "got a four" Aurora smiled at Jax "I hate you" Jax sighed stripping down to his boxers and t-shirt "sure you do" Aurora laughed drinking some of her margarita.

"Got a 3?" a now shirtless Jax asked "go fish" Aurora smirked "you know what that means" she questioned "I get your boxers" she laughed "alright you win" Jax stood up from the couch "I always do" Aurora smiled standing up to fill her drink "oh shut up" Jax grumbled "why don't you make me" Aurora looked at Jax "oh you'd like that wouldn't you" Jax questioned walking towards Aurora "I guess we'll have to see" Aurora walked backwards "oh we will" Jax smirked when Aurora's back hit the counter.
