Sam walked through the doors of the night club. It wasn't open yet but there were employees getting the place ready. One of the hostesses came up to her as she was heading upstairs to her office. "Hey Sam there is a man waiting for you in your office. He said that it was important." Lily said to Sam. "OK. Thanks I'll take it from here." Sam said as she opened her office door to be face to face with her past. "Clay? What are you doing here?" She asked him surprised and caught off guard as she walked further into her office. Clay stood up to face her. "We ran into a problem back home. I need you to come back and help us out." Clay told her getting straight to the point. Sam scoffed and shook her head as she put her bag down on her desk. "I have made a life for myself here. I told you 4 years ago that I was out. I can't come back not now." Sam denied as she stood her ground to the only man she has ever feared. Clay glared at her and shook his head. "You don't have much of a choice Sam. That patch that you still wear on your jacket clearly says that I am to tell you when to come back." Clay told her raising his voice slightly. Sam shook her head and moved away from her desk. "No Clay. I'm not going back. I left Charming a long time ago, and I swore that I wasn't going to set foot in Charming again." Sam stated as she opened the door as a sign for him to leave. "Give Gemma and the boys my love but I have nothing more to say." She said to him in a final tone. Clay stormed up to her and slammed the door closed. He grabbed her by the neck and pushed her against the wall. "I wasn't asking." He hissed in her face. "Now we're having some problems with the Mayans who took our guns. I want your ass back in Charming by the end of tomorrow, or I'll be sending Tig and you know how he can be." He threatened before he let go of her neck. She glared at him as he leaned forward and gave her a kiss on the forehead. "It's good to see you Sam. I know Jax and the boys will be thrilled to see you for a while." Clay said to her before he opened the door of her office. "I'll see you tomorrow." She sighed as he closed the door behind him. She let out a shaky breath as she slumped down in her chair. She picked up her phone to call her boss. "Hey Bruce, I'm going to need a few personal days…" She said into the phone as she started to get on her computer to start making arrangements.
Sam drove past the 'Welcome to Charming' sign and let out a dramatic sigh. She couldn't believe that after all this time she was finally back in the small town that she never wanted to set foot in again. She had already made a reservation for a motel that she knew the owners. Instead of heading over to the motel she went straight to Teller-Morrow to see the boys. She pulled in and made a face when she seen a beamer sitting there with a deer hanging out of the windshield. She slowly got out of the car and walked over to the man who had the chainsaw trying to get the deer out of the car. "Hey!" she walked over to him and looked at him through her sunglasses. "I'm looking for Clay is he around?" She asked as she stood beside the car. He looked up at her and he looked like he was going to be sick. "Umm he's not here right now but I can tell him that you stopped by." The man said hesitantly. Sam rolled her eyes and walked toward the clubhouse. "I'll just wait for him inside." she said as she started to walk past him. "I'm sorry but I can't let you in there." he said blocking her way. She sighed and took her glasses off. "Look I'm only here for a couple of days. I don't have time for this bullshit. Do you even know who I am?" she asked him as he just looked at her with wide eyes. "What's going on here?" She heard from behind her. She put a smile on her face and turned around to see one of her best friends. "Aren't you going to welcome an old friend home?" She giggled slightly as he smiled big and pulled her into his arms spinning her around. "Oh shit Sam! I can't believe you're here!" He put her down to get a good look at her. "I can't believe you're back!" She smiled as Chibs came over to engulf her in his arms. "Oi! The princess has finally come home!" Chibs exclaimed as he pulled her back into his arms. "Its so good to see you Lasse." Chibs said with a smile. "Its good to be back guys. I'm only here for a few days. Clay said that you were having trouble with the Mayans and said that you could use my help." Sam explained to Jax as Chibs walked into the clubhouse to get the rest of the boys. "Yea its nothing that we can't handle. The Mayans trashed the warehouse and took all of our guns." Jax told her. Sam looked at him and rolled her eyes. "Shit Jax. What are you going to do?" she asked him. But before he could answer the rest of the boys came out to see. "Well well its about time you come back around Miss Samantha!" Bobby exclaimed as he pulled her into a tight hug. She looked over his shoulder and caught the eye of a young cute guy with a Mohawk and tribal tattoos looking at her. She recognized him as the prospect before she left for Los Angeles. She instantly felt butterflies in her stomach. She pulled back and looked at Bobby. "I missed you so much Bobby." Sam said as she smiled at him. "Have you met Juice yet?" Bobby said pointing to Juice who was staring at her. "I have but he was just here when I left." Sam said as Juice walked over to them. "Hi I'm Samantha." she said to him with a smile. He looked back at her and had a goofy smile on his face that made her heart jump. "I'm Juice." he said simply to her. "Don't mind him he's very socially awkward that's why we love him." Jax said as he wrapped his arm around her shoulder. "I was just about to go check out the storage for some baby stuff. Do you wanna tag along?" he asked her as he steered her away from the group. "Well do I have much of a choice?" she asked rhetorically as they walked to the back of the clubhouse. Juice watched on clearly checking her out. He felt the weight of Chib's arm on his shoulder. "I wouldn't go there boy. That girl there is a wild horse that no man has had the pleasure of taming. Plus Jax will kill you." Juice looked over at Chibs with a wide eyed look. "What? I wasn't- I mean I- wasn't thinking about her li-like that!" Juice stumbled out his words. Chibs looked at him like he didn't believe him and chuckled and patted his arm as she walked back into the garage.
Sam stood beside Jax as he went through all the old boxes. She let out a chuckle as he picked up his old be be gun. "Oh man I remember this old thing. Piney bought all of matching sets. I'm pretty sure mine is still packed around here somewhere too." she trailed off as he tested it to see it still fired. Jax smirked proudly of himself. "I'm pretty sure I beat you at all of our shooting contests." Jax gloated as he put it down and grabbed a toy. Sam glared playfully at him. "That was then, soon I'll be calling for a rematch." she teased as she spotted a box. "Hey look at this. I think it's a box of your dad's things." she exclaimed as she pulled it up. Jax opened it up and pulled out an envelope that had pictures. Sam leaned over his shoulder as he went through the pictures. "Oh wow look at our dads. I can't believe how long its been." Sam commented at a picture of both their dads with their arms around each other smiling. "That was right before he went in. I use to visit him all the time but when I left I haven't seen him or written to him." Sam said to Jax as he put away the pictures. "I know darling, I'm so glad you're back though I missed you." he said to her softly as he kissed her on the forehead. She smiled up at him as he pulled out a big yellow envelope. Sam watched as he opened it up and seen that it was pages of a book. "Holy shit." Sam whispered as she read over Jax's shoulder. "Let's get this stuff back into my room. I want to look at all of this." Jax said as he stood up to gather the boxes up. Sam followed his lead and grabbed some stuff.
Sam was laying on Jax's bed on her stomach going through all of the pictures when there was a knock on the door. "Hey Jax we're at the table!" she heard Chibs shout through the door. "I'm coming!" Jax shouted back. "Is Sammy in there with you?" Chibs asked again. Sam smiled and stood up from the bed. "Yea Chibs I'll be out with him." Sam shouted back at him. Jax put the pages away in a drawer and locked it. "I don't want anyone to know about these yet." he told her as he locked his door to his room. "Well duh I figured that." she commented sarcastically as they walked down the hall. Sam followed him toward the double doors where they held church. She stopped when she seen her second father figure Tig standing beside Clay. He looked at her and got a big smile on his face. "I can't believe it! Sammy!" he exclaimed as he pulled her into a tight hug. "I missed you too Tiggy." she smiled and hugged him back tightly. "When did you get back? How long are you here for?" he asked her as he let go of her. She glanced at Clay who was watching her. "I just got in today and I'm only here for a few days that's all." She said as she followed the guys into church. "That's why I called Sam back. I want them Mayan sons of bitches to pay for taking our guns. The niners are expecting a big heroin shipment and they needed those guns." Clay banged his fist on the table angrily. "I don't care who we have to kill we need to get those guns back." Clay looked around as Jax nodded his head. "We will. Chibs and I will head up intel on the Mayans. Juice, you and Sam hack into the police database. Get addresses on any Mayans in the system." Jax ordered as Sam nodded her head. "When you find those guns Bobby I want you to fat boy up all that you can every inch of that place." Clay angrily said to Bobby. "Wait Bobby has Tahoe this weekend." Jax interrupted. Sam looked over in surprise as Bobby shook his head. "You're still doing Elvis?" she asked in surprise. "Not this weekend I'm not I'm cancelling that shit." he said to them. The guys all shook their heads and shouted no. "There is no way I'm going you guys need me!" Bobby shouted at them. "You need to go Bobby you already have 2 ex wives who already spent the check. The last thing that we need is a PI poking around here, we already got enough shit to deal with!" Clay stated. "When who is going to pyro it up while I'm all the way in Tahoe?" Bobby asked sarcastically. Sam gave him a wtf look. "What do I look like chop liver? Nobody can blow up shit like me and Opie." Sam stated. Jax shook his head. "You've been away too long Sam, Op is leaning straight these days now." Jax said to Sam. "Opie is going to lean where I say he leans." Sam glared at Clay. "I don't need Opie to do this. I can do this on my own." she defended. Clay shook his head. "You two better get him on board." Clay said pointing to both Sam and Jax. Sam sighed and stood up with the rest of them. "I'm sorry I mentioned him I didn't know." Sam whispered to Jax as they walked out. "Don't worry about it darling, he'll be happy to see you." he told her with a smile. Sam looked around when she caught a smell of something disgusting. "What the hell is that smell?" she asked out loud. They heard a horn honking and walked outside knowing it was Gemma.
Sam walked out as she spotted Gemma getting out of the car. "I tried to call you!" she exclaimed frantically as Jax walked over to his mother. "What happened?" Jax asked as he came to stop beside her. Gemma looked past him and laid eyes on Sam. "Is that Samantha?" She asked pointing at Sam as she stormed past Jax and Clay and stormed over to where Sam was standing. Gemma stopped in front of her and glared at her. "You have a lot of nerve coming back home after not seeing or talking to me for 2 years!" Gemma yelled at her before she pulled her into a hug. Sam relaxed and hugged her back. "Its good to have you home baby." Gemma whispered to her.
Sam walked down the hall way of the hospital with everyone as Gemma explained what all she knew about Wendy overdosing with Jax's unborn baby boy. "They found these matches besides her handbag belonging to the Hairy Dog." Gemma informed them. "God damn Nords dealing out of the dog again." Clay stated. "Wait I didn't know that Darby was out." Sam said surprised. "He got out two weeks ago in Chino. I'm guessing this is his doing." Bobby said as they came up to Wendy's room. Tara came out of the room and Sam looked at her in surprise. "What the hell happened?" Jax asked her. Tara looked from Jax to Sam then back to Jax. "What was the last time you seen her?" Tara asked him. "A couple of weeks why?" he told her. "Her hands and feet are covered with track marks. The toxicology report isn't back yet but I'm guessing its crank." Tara informed them. Sam looked into the room at her old friend and noticed something. "What about the baby?" she asked Tara. "We had to do an emergency C-section." she informed them as she looked between at Jax then Sam then Gemma then back to Jax. "Let's go sit down and talk." Tara suggested trying to get Jax by himself but he shook his head. "Just say it doc." Jax said sounding tired. "He is 10 weeks premature. We also found that he was born with a congenital heart defect and a tear in his abdomen. The tear is from the drugs but the heart defect is-" Gemma cut her off. "The family flaw." she said with a nod. "Yes it is genetic. It isn't life threatening however with the two of them together…" Tara trailed off as she watched Jax's face filled with emotion. "Oh god Jax." Sam whispered as she placed a comforted hand on his shoulder. "The other doctors give him a 20 percent chance and that is very optimistic." Tara told him hesitantly. "Oh god." Gemma whispered grabbing Sam's other hand. "She didn't want to talk to me, I didn't know." Jax said heartbroken. "The nurse said that she has missed her last three appointments no one knew." Tara informed them. Sam scoffed at how her old friend treated her body with the baby. "The doctor wants to repair the tear first and if he survives then he wants to do the heart. I am so sorry Jax." Tara told him. "I can take you to see him." Tara said as she pushed a button to open the door for ICU. Jax walked up to Tara and spoke to her for a couple of minutes. Sam stood beside Gemma as they waited to see what to do. Jax stormed past them. "Jax!" Sam and Gemma shouted at him. He turned around. "Go with Tara mom there's something that I have to do. Sam go find Op." Jax turned and continued to walk out of the hospital. Sam watched him walk away. Clay turned to Chibs and Bobby. "Watch his back." Clay commanded the two as they followed him out. "Keep me updated Gem. I'll be back in after I find Opie." Sam said as she leaned and gave Gemma a hug before she walked past Clay and followed Jax's lead out of the hospital.
Sam pulled up to the site that Opie was working at. She sighed and got out of her car. Opie noticed her and walked over instantly. "Holy shit Sam. Its so good to see you." he smiled and gave her a big hug. "Its so good to see you too, I've missed you guys a lot." She said as she leaned against her car. "So I take it you're back because of the Mayans hitting Samcro warehouse?" Opie asked as he stood beside her. Sam sighed and nodded. "Yea. Clay forced me to come back in and help them with this. We need you too." Sam informed him. Opie narrowed his eyes at her. "Help with what? I promised Donna that I would earn straight from now on." Opie argued. "I understand that really I do, but since Bobby is going out of town Clay said that he needed us to fill in. You know the last thing I want is to be caught in the middle of all of this club shit again." Sam stated. "Everything has gone to shit since I got out Sam. I'm in debt up to my eyeballs, my kids don't even know me. If I so much as mention Samcro she'll flip out on me." Opie ranted to his best friend. "But you got out before anything completely bad could happen to you. Donna still mentions you from time to time about how she wishes that I can just leave just like you did." Opie said as he looked at Sam. "If you need money Op-" Opie cut her off. "I don't want to borrow I want to earn." Sam looked at him with a small smile. "Yea I know you do. Besides your family just has to get use to having you back home that's all. They have to get use to how ugly their daddy is." Sam joked. Opie looked at her with a surprised smile. "Oh yea is that so? I remember there was a couple times where you thought differently." he elbowed her softly. "Donna knows what this life is about. She knows what she signed up for when she married you." Sam said to Opie. "How would you react if your husband left you for five years with two kids and barely any money left." Opie said to her with a pointed look. "That's why I'm not an old lady. I would flip out and that man wouldn't like me very much." Sam said to him truthfully. Opie gave her a small smile. Opie sighed and looked over to where his work station was. "Let me know when you guys need me." Sam bumped his fist and got up to leave.
Sam sat at the bar as she waited for the boys to be done with church. She was an unofficial member and was only allowed in church when it was absolutely important. She looked over and seen Half Sack cleaning up the bar. "Hey can you get me a captain and coke with a shot of fire ball?" she asked him with a small smile. "Sure thing." he blushed and smiled back at her. She looked up when the boys walked out to be greeted with beers. She handed Clay his beer and turned to him. "I spoke to my guy in LA, he has glocks, can help with Aks but doesn't have any MA's." Sam informed him. He sighed nodded his head. "That's doll. That's why I love you. You always have all the connections." he kissed her on the cheek. She smiled softly as Juice sat down beside her. "How's your day going?" he asked her. She turned to face him and raised an eyebrow at him. "Its been quite eventful my first day back in Charming and already I feel exhausted enough to collapse anywhere." she laughed lightly. He smiled back giving her butterflies in her stomach. He continued to look at her until Clay started yelling. "What is that smell? Its coming from that box!" Sam followed to stand beside Juice as they watched as Bobby opened up the box that was under the pool table. Sam quickly grabbed her nose when he pulled out a deer head. She buried her nose in Juice's shirt to hide from the smell. Where she was touching him Juice felt his skin heat up. He has never reacted like that to a woman's touch and it confused him. "It's mine!" Half Sack came over and grabbed the head. "I thought maybe we could hang it on the wall wouldn't that be pretty cool?" Kip asked as he struggled to hold up the head. "You do realize that it has to be stuffed and treated first right?" Sam asked as she removed herself from Juice's shoulder. Juice almost grabbed her to keep her there. He felt cold where her touch was, he knew then that he wanted that warm feeling back. "Yea I know that….Stuffed with what?" Sam tried to hold in her laughter as the room erupted in laughter. "Alright boys. I need to go check into my motel. I'll be back later." Sam said to the room as she laid her glass down on the bar. "Yea Sam come back cause we're having a party for your welcome home." Jax informed her as he kissed her cheek. "I'll be back later." She promised as she left and headed for her car.
She pulled into the motel and parked her car. The owner promised her the best room in the whole place. She walked into the office to get her keys. Once she got into her room and threw her bags down and started to put things away. She knew that she had a few hours to kill before she had to get ready for the party. She laid on the bed and started thinking about Juice. She knew that she shouldn't get involved but for some reason she couldn't get his goofy smile out of her head. She rolled over and sighed. She refused to get attached to anyone more than she already was. She was only here for a few days. She unpacked her clothes and decided to take a shower to get ready. She knew what Samcro parties were like, and she missed them. She knew tonight was going to be epic.
Once she arrived she walked into the club house to see the party in full swing. She walked by the boxing mat to see Tig and Happy fighting. She walked up to put her arm around Jax. "I see that they're putting my welcome home into full swing." she joked as a crow eater brought her a beer. She thanked her and continued to watch Tig and Happy fight. "Alright Sam its your party break that shit up." Clay shouted to her with a smile. She finished her beer and climbed into the ring. "Alright guys break it up!" Sam shouted standing between them. "Hug it out guys!" she said to them. She squealed out in excitement when they both pulled her in-between them for a huge hug. She climbed out of the ring with the help from Juice. "Thanks." she said with a smile and didn't realize that her hand was still in his. "Here I brought you another drink." he said holding out a cup for her to take. She smiled and accepted the drink. She smiled and walked toward the dance floor.
Sam was pretty drunk working on her sixth captain and coke. She was currently dancing with Juice who had his hands on her hips as she moved to the beat. She felt his lips graze her neck as he pushed her toward the dorm rooms. She turned around and kissed him on the lips pushing her tongue in his mouth. He pushed her against the wall and rubbed his hands up and down her body. Sam jumped back when she heard a throat clear from behind them. She pushed Juice back and seen Jax standing there looking unamused. "Sam I think you've had too much to drink. I'll give you a ride back to the motel." he said not taking his eyes off of Juice. Sam looked at him wide eyed and nodded her head. "Yea, that's probably a good idea." she let out a breath as she pushed past Juice and Jax and headed outside of the clubhouse. Jax turned and looked at Juice. "That girl that just walked out of here is a wild cat and will eat you alive if you're not careful. I seen the way you've been looking at her. She's not staying so don't get attached." Jax gave him a brotherly pat on the back and turned to walk toward his bike where Sam was waiting for him.
Sam unlocked her door and Jax followed her inside. She threw the keys down on the night stand and turned to face one of her best friends. "Alright Jax say it I know you want to." She said as she threw her arms up in defeat. "Juice isn't like the rest of us. When he falls he falls hard. I know how you are and I know that you're not planning on staying. I don't want you to start anything that you don't intend to finish." Jax told her. She looked down at the floor in shame trying to hide her tears. She bit her lip and looked back up at him. "I know Jax. I don't know what came over me." she told him as she sat down on the bed. "Its alright darling we've all been there. Just get some sleep. I want you to check in with my mom at the hospital in the morning." He leaned down to kiss her head softly. "Sleep tight I love you." he whispered to her before he turned and walked out the door.
Sam woke up the next morning with a huge headache and hungry stomach. She quickly got a shower and got dressed. She called Gemma who was already at the hospital and wanted her to meet her there. She grabbed her bag and keys and locked the door putting up the DND sign. She got in her car to head to the hospital. She walked in through the doors and stopped at the café to get a couple of coffees and some donuts. She headed up to the maternity ward and spotted Gemma and Luann sitting on the waiting room. She walked over and set the coffee down beside Gemma. "Have you heard anything yet?" Sam asked Gemma as she picked up a coffee cup and took a sip of her iced coffee. Gemma gave her a look when she seen her sip her coffee. "You have been in LA too long if you're not even drinking real coffee." Gemma stated as she grabbed the hot cup. Sam rolled her eyes. "Yea Yea. Did you find out anything?" She asked again to change the subject. "Nothing yet. We're waiting on Tara to come out with some information." Gemma informed her.
Sam stood up from her spot when she seen Tara walk over to them. "Abel's stomach surgery went well, but its putting a strain on his system. The doctor doesn't want to wait he wants to go ahead with the surgery now." Tara informed them. "That's good right Tara that they want to go ahead and do the surgery now?" Sam asked standing beside Gemma. Tara nodded. "It's the best choice yes." Tara agreed. Gemma nodded her head and sighed. "OK thank you doc." she turned to walk away when Tara stopped her. "Can I talk to you and Sam for a minute?" Tara asked Gemma. Sam nodded and the three of them walked over by the window. "Wendy is still in detox and she can't stop crying." Gemma rolled her eyes. "And your point?" Gemma asked her. "Well I was hoping that one of you could talk to her to let her know that she's not alone. Sam you use to be friends with her before you left and Gemma she's the mother of your grandson. That has to count for something." Sam rolled her eyes. "I quit being friends with her the second I found out she was shooting up crank. Its even worse now that I found out she was pregnant." Sam stated and Gemma gave her an approving look. "I forgot how forth right Gemma turned you into." Tara told her with a disapproving tone. "You forgot a lot of things sweetheart." Gemma smirked at her. "Do you have a problem with me assisting the doctor?" Tara asked glaring at Gemma. "Are you a good doctor?" she asked back. "Yes I am." she told her firmly. "Than I don't have a problem." Sam rolled her eyes at the two of them. She looked down at her phone when she felt it vibrate. She looked at the caller ID and seen that it was Jax. "Hey what's up?" She asked into the phone. "Meet me at Op's house and hand over the stuff. I want you to stay with my mom during this Opie and I can handle the pyro." he said to her into the phone. "You sure? I don't mind. You know that." She said back. "Yea I'm sure just meet me." she hung up the phone and looked back at Gemma still talking to Tara. She sighed dramatically and rolled her eyes before she turned to walk out of the hospital.
Sam pulled up to Opie's house to see Jax standing there waiting for him. She pulled her bag out of the passenger seat and headed toward him. "This is all of it. Opie will know what to do with it." she said as she handed it over to him. They turned when Opie walked over to them. "I didn't hear you guys pull up." he commented as he came to stand in front of them. "I hope we didn't tweak Donna any." Jax said with an amused smirk. Opie looked back at the house. "She was already tweaked guys don't worry about it." he assured them. Jax sighed. "Just give me the bag Opie. I can take it from here. It wasn't right for Clay to make the both of you come back for this shit. I can handle this. Just take your kids to the ER, get it on record that you were there." Jax instructed as he grabbed the bag off of Opie. Sam and Opie watched as Jax walked down the street. "What are you going to do?" Opie asked her. "I'm heading back to the hospital to be with Gemma. She needs someone with her now." Sam said as she walked back to her car.
Sam walked in Wendy's room followed by Gemma. "Hey girl long time no see." Sam said with no emotion on her face. Wendy looked surprised to see them. Sam stood against the wall as Gemma closed the door. "It looks like that little boy might actually see his first birthday." Gemma stated with a smile. Wendy looked up at them. "Oh Abel thank god!" she whispered out trying to stop from crying. Sam rolled her eyes. "Yes thank god." Sam mumbled out. Gemma walked over and grabbed Wendy's hand. "Let's say a prayer." she held out her hand for Sam to take her other hand. Sam walked over and glared at Wendy who kept her head down as she grabbed Gemma's hand. "Dear god, thank you for saving that little boy from his murderous junky mom who cared only about getting a rush then her own flesh and blood." Wendy yanked her hand from Gemma. "Don't you dare-" Sam cut her off. "Don't she dare? You're pathetic Wendy. To think that I was the one who introduced you to Jax in the first place sickens me." Sam told her with disgust in her voice. "I hear that the DA isn't going to press charges like they should. They're impressed with your bible studies." Gemma commented as she turned to get something out of her purse. "It's going to be different this time!" Wendy stated. "I have my baby to live for now!" Sam lunged forward and grabbed Wendy's throat. "You will not come near that baby do you hear me? You have done enough damage to him." She let go of Wendy and she coughed and tried to catch her breath. "I suggest you listen to the princess. I wouldn't want to send her back to finish the job." Gemma stated as she laid the bible back down where she put the syringe of heroin in. "I suggest you find Jesus." Sam glared at Wendy as she turned to walk out of the room.
She walked down the hall and seen Jax walk into the nursery where Abel was being kept in. She followed in behind him and wrapped her arm around his shoulder. "He's perfect Jax." she whispered to him as she got a good look at Abel. Jax smiled down at her and wrapped his arm around her. Gemma and Clay stood on the outside as they watched the two best friends.
