Wendy shifted her weight in the car. They had been driving for hours. She was wondering what happened with Jax and how everything was going to end up once it was all over. The boys were both asleep in the back. Abel was clutching something in his hand that she hadn't noticed before. She glanced over and wondered what it was. She wasn't going to reach back to get it because she didn't want to wake him up. Nero glanced her way.

"You ok?" he asked.

She nodded. She wasn't sure if she really meant that or not. She looked at Thomas' sleeping face in the mirror and sighed. Nero was taking them to the new farm that he had just bought. He was done with the gang life and was going to retire out to the farm. It had been Jax's idea to have him take Wendy and the boys down to the farm with him. He had known that something was up. Things just didn't feel right.

"Things aren't right," he said.

"What do you mean?" Wendy asked.

"I don't know. It's just a feeling I have,"

Wendy looked over at him. He sighed. He dropped the issue until they were at the farm. Wendy took Thomas from his seat and carried him up to the door while Nero got Abel. She smiled. Nero turned the television on when they got in the house. The two boys were still sound asleep. Something on the television caught Wendy's eye. It was a story about an accident that involved a motorcycle and a semi. The scene looked brutal. Wendy's heart went out to the people affected by the accident. The phone rang.

"Hello," Nero answered it.

Wendy looked over at him.

"What the hell was he thinking?" Nero asked.

"Who?" Wendy asked.

"Turn that up."

Wendy turned the television up a little more. She looked back at Nero again.

"Jesus," Nero said.

Wendy was growing more and more concerned by the moment. Nero was staring at the television and a pained look of worry was written across his face. She was beginning to get scared. Nero hung up the phone and put his arms around her.

"Mami, that's Jax," he said.

Wendy's eyes widened and she could feel the fear building up in her chest. The tears were falling before she could stop them. She stared straight ahead trying to convince herself that Nero was lying. The Jax she knew and loved would not have gone that route. He wouldn't have left his boys like that. He wouldn't have left her especially after the night they shared. She was worried about the kids. Her heart was breaking because no matter what she loved Jax and she loved those boys.

"A lawyer will be calling with documents for you to sign," Nero said, quietly.

"For what?" Wendy sniffed.

"He gave it all to you from what I was just told. Everything, both houses, the shop, all of it."

Wendy was stunned. She knew that this was going to be gut wrenching for her. She was going to have to talk to Abel in particular. Thomas was too young to understand any of it. She was going to ensure that both boys knew who their father was and who Tara was because both had played big parts in the boys lives.

"There is a catch though," Nero said.

"What?" Wendy asked.

"Jax wants you to take the boys away from Charming and away from everything that has to do with the club."

That stunned Wendy. She didn't think Jax would ever take the boys from the club. She looked at the boys sleeping on the couches in Nero's living room. She was shaking in her seat. Her eyes went back to the TV. She could not believe that mess that she was seeing on the news was all that was left of Jax's bike.

"Wendy?" Abel was awake.

"Hey buddy, come here." she said.

He walked over to her and she pulled him into her lap. She felt the pain take over and the tears begin to fall.

"What's wrong?" Abel asked.

Wendy just shook her head. She knew she would have to tell him but she wasn't sure how. The poor kid had already had so many losses in his short little life. She didn't want to have to be the one to give him another one. He was already convinced that she was going to leave the same way Tara had. She was not going to let that happen. She was always going to be there for those boys.

*two days later*

Wendy was sorting through all the paperwork that the lawyer had dropped off the day before. Abel knew that Jax was in an accident and hadn't made it. She also had to tell him that Grandma was not coming back either. It was a rough couple of days for the poor little guy. He was doing the best he could do deal with it all. Wendy was sitting at the table going through the envelope again when Nero walked in the room. He had Thomas on his hip. He had been doing what he could to keep Abel distracted with all the animals on the farm.

"How's it going in here?" he asked.

"It's all so damn confusing," she sighed.

"What do you mean?"

"Well there is money here that takes care of the funerals for both Jax and Gemma. There is also a stipulation that they are not buried near each other. Gemma apparently goes next to Thomas and Jax next to Tara. Then I'm supposed to sell half of Teller-Morrow to one of the guys so I don't have to be around to run it but he didn't want us to have anything to do with the club. I just don't get it."

"Well I think he wanted to make sure that you have money coming in so you can be with the boys."

Wendy nodded. Things were crazy for her now. She had a lot of paperwork to deal with and two houses to sell. It was crazy to think that her life had drastically changed in less than 48 hours. She was now officially mom to the two boys and she was their only caregiver. She also had two funerals to plan and two houses to sell. She had so much to deal with and she was thankful that they were on the farm so that she had help with the boys while she sorted through it all.

"You are doing good dealing with it all," Nero said.

"I'd fall apart if I didn't have help with the boys," she replied.

"You would handle it just like you do everything else,"

"With an eight ball?"

Nero rolled his eyes. He looked at her again. She shook her head. She stared at the papers in her hands. She had a meeting set up with a storage unit to go through the stuff in both houses. She also had appointments with a realtor to sell both houses in Charming and find a house somewhere close to Nero and the farm. She was going to do whatever she could to give the boys a healthy stable home no matter how much she wanted to get high.
