It's a hot summers day when Riley is driving her car to the garage of Teller- Morrow. On the passenger side is her 2 year old son Nic. He sleeping peacefully with his kuddlenap. On the dashboard lies a paper and when she is waiting before a red light and she is reading the add again.

Help needed! Looking for a barmaid with experience.
Payments high. Apply at the MC S.O.A.

She knows the MC isn't what they want people to think it is. It's more then just Harley enthusiasts and mechanics, but she can use the money.

When she pulls up, she sees a couple of bikers in the rear view mirror. She recognizes the patch they are wearing. They are Sons.

With the bikes passing her she pulls up on the driveway of the garage. Nic is mumbling in his sleep and gives a small smile. Apparently he is liking his dream. She puts the car in the shades next to the clubhouse.

She strokes his head and gives him a kiss. She opens the window and gets out of the car.

Jax looks up form his bike and sees Riley walking towards him. He recognizes her from school but that's it. He has seen her a couple of times after that but they definitely aren't friends. He gives Tig a nod who is also looking at Riley "You go!".

Tig nodes back and gets up and walks towards her.

"Is there anything I can do for you ma'am" he jolts at his jacked. Behind Riley Chibs and Juice are getting of their bikes.

"Yeah actually you can. I'm here for the add in the paper. Ive got an appointment with Gemma" she's holding up the newspaper.

"Oh alright. Follow me love. I'll take you to Gemma" he is walking towards a small office with just one window. Riley follows him but looks over her shoulder to the car. Nic is still a sleep.

Tig opens the door and announces her. When Riley enters the room she sees a handsome women of middle age. Hair perfect tied up and wearing fashion clothing. Riley feels stupid in her jeans and top.
Gemma signs her she van sit down. When she takes her place she notices the posters on the wall. Naked woman in very uncomfortable poses.

"So you think you are qualified to do this job?" Gemma checks out what's in front of her "You are sure you can handle this?" she grabs a cigarette and lights in. when she is taking a draft she sees Riley looking at the cigarettes.

"Want one?" Gemma offers the smokes to her but Riley just shakes her head "No thanks. I don't smoke. But I'm custom to working in a bar and I know I'm good at it".

"Not in a MC honey. Your resumé is very impressive, I gotta give you that but, well I'm not sure of you're able to keep up with us" she puts down the resumé.

"if you give me a change I'll proof I'm worthy" Riley straightens her back. Gemma starts grinning.

"That's what I needed to hear. Alright you get a change. I'm curious how long you will keep up with those idiots out there".

"Thank you for the opportunity" she holds out her hand which is getting shaking with a firm grip from Gemma.

"I'll introduce you to the gang" Gemma gets up from behind the desk and walks outside. Riley sigh, step one is put.

"Guys, get your butts over here now! Eliot get Alex!" Gemma commands. The guys walk out from the garage towards Gemma. Riley steps out of the office in to the sun. Temporarily blinded by the sun she doesn't see Juice and Chibs sharing an approving look with each other. When Riley checks out the faces she only recognizes Jax. Eliot walks towards them with behind him a blond woman.

"Riley this is Alex, she will be your boss" Ales looks at her and then back to Gemma "Ur sure she will keep up? I'm done with the new faces every week".

"I'm standing right here and I can hear and talk so you can ask me" Riley's looks confused to Alex who starts to grin.

"I'm Chibs, welcome to the MC Riley" a heavy Scottish accented voice comes from behind her. When she turns around her glare goes straightly to the scars on his face. She mumbles a hello.

"This is Juice, Eliot, Tig, Happy, Elvis and this is our v.p" he grabs Jax and pulls him in front of her "Jax".

"I know you from school" he looks at her up and down. They tend to that she notices. Her eyes stroll towards Eliot. Who looks at her blanckly. One more face she recognizes. Although she doesn't want to.

"You're still a nerd?."

"Still am" she replies

"Jesus Christ Jax. That isn't a way to greet a lady" Gemma smacks Jax in the head and he starts laughing. "Just wanted to know how she would reply".

"Hope you are satisfied" Alex intervenes "I'm Alex, short for Alexandra. I run the bar, so of there is anything you come to me".

Riley nods and shakes her hand. "You can start tonight. Is that going to be a problem?" Alex looks at the clothes Riley is wearing.

"No, I gotta find a babysitter for my son but that shouldn't be a problem".

"Holy fuck, you got a kid?" Jax looks at the car. "Yeah he is sleeping on the passenger side".

"Follow me, I'll show you the ropes inside. It'll be a slow night so good to learn" Alex wants to walk away when Eliot grabs her "Still on for tonight babe?" he kisses her and Alex starts to smile. "It's always on, you know that". He smacks her butt and the guys start to laugh. Riley raises her eyebrow but doesn't say anything. She's only hoping no one will do that to her. She follows Alex to the club.

"Ya thinking she will stay long enough?" Chibs turns to Gemma. "Don't know honey. She's got the balls to fight and she wont be easily distracted".

"How long before we can sleep with her" Tig smiles.

"How 'bout never, keep yer dick in yer pants Tig" Chibs looks at him with a grim look.

"Wo easy Chibs, I'm just joking" Tig walks away with his hands in the air like he is surrendering himself to Chibs "Don't shoot the guy who she will be ending up with!".

"Interested bro?" Jax turns to look at Chibs who is shrugging his shoulders.

"Don't know Jax. Kinda like the lady but don't know what she really is".

"If you're not gonna hit it, some one else will. And that probably will be Tig or Juice" Bobby mingles himself into the conversation. Gemma rolls her eyes "Jesus guys, she just started working here. It's stupid things like that, that keeps them running for the hills. And now get back to work! I'm gonna get the little kid out of the car. It's to hot to let him stay there and she will be in for a while".

"If they don't get into a fight" Eliot looks at the closed door. He never forgets a face. And he sure as hell didn't forget hers.

"So this is the bar?" Riley looks around "Looks good".

"Thanks. My uncle and dad built it and owned it until he died last fall. My dad wasn't around much so it came to me" Alex strokes her hand across the bar.

"I'm sorry to hear that, my condolences" Riley turns to look at Alex who has a sad look on her face.

"It's alright. My dad's still around so.. " she sighs deeply "This is the bar, this is the counter and this is the stock behind it. Make sure that when you start you have it well stocked. When they start drinking there isn't a change to go to the basement and get more. Just be prepared".

Riley nods and makes a mental note. When they drink, they drink a lot. Thats what she Is getting from this.

"The basement is through that door but when they are there you can't enter" she points towards a black door which is closed.

"Whats behind it?" she looks at the door with a lot of curiosity.

"Church" Alex answers like it isn't a big deal. She is used to this lifestyle.

"They got what up there?"

"Oh honey, you've got a lot to learn. But judging from the snappy comment you gave outside, you will do just fine. Just make sure that they understand that a NO is a NO!"

"What are they going to do. Rape me?" Riley laughs but when she sees the serious look on Alex her face she crumbles.

"You've got to be shitting me. They do that?" Alex hears the sharp tone in Riley her voice and desides to shake it off. She shakes her head "Not if you don't want to, but if they see you are having your doubts they will sure as hell try. And believe me, they will".

"Holy fuck" Riley has a blanc look on her face.

Alex starts to laugh "If you get the right one it will be a fuck from heaven".

"What time do you need me to be here?".

Alex looks at the clock "well it's 3pm now. Is it possible for you to be here at 8?".

Riley nods "Sure not a problem" she lied. It's a hell of a problem. Where is she going to find a babysitter in less then 5 hours. She doesn't know anybody here, so she can't just call someone.

"Oh en before I forget. Is it also possible for you to do morning shifts? Clean up and shit".

"Yeah sure. Not a problem. How much hours will I clock in a week?" If she has to do evenings, nights and mornings it must be a lot of hours, wich means a lot of cash.
"If they have partys and stuff maybe up to 50 hours a week. They are the ones who pay you so be firm when they are late with the payment" Alex gives her a meaningfull look. They bar may be here's but her uncle almost lost it to the club. The payment goes through the club. Bobby being the official bookkeeper.

"We've got back rooms for your kid to sleep if you can't find a babysitter. But when there are party's the rooms are occupied and you need to clean them the next day".

"Yeah got it" her head is making overtime. It starts to look more like a brothel instead of a bar. But she needs the cash. That's what she keeps reminding herself of. She needs the cash.

"I'll explain more to you tonight. Oh and wear something more rock star and less socker mom".

Riley looks at her clothes "I think I need to go to the shop then".

"I'll take you tomorrow. SAMCRO has a budget for things like that. Just put on a short tonight, I'll have a shirt ready."

"Thanks".

"Don't thank me. Thank SAMCRO". Riley smiles and walks out of the bar into the blinding light. When she wants to walk to the car she notices that the passenger door is open en Nic is gone.

A small shriek leaves her throat and panic kicks in. No, no, it can't be she desided to run to the garage. When she set two steps she sees in the shade next to the shop, Gemma on the ground with Nic. A big puff of air leaves her lungs and she swallows her tears.

"Jesus Christ, you scared the living shit out of me" Riley walks towards Gemma.

Chibs walks out of the garage "What happened luv?".

"I couldn't find my son, I just panicked. Thats all" she grabs Nic, he is holding a miniature Harley in his hands and looks very pleased by himself.

"Mom" Nic holds up the Harley with pride "Gem".

"Yeah baby, you got this from Gemma. He's a cuty Riley. You're lucky to have him" Gemma strokes the cheek of Nic and he replies with a laugh outloud.

"I am very happy with him" she presses him close to her and Nic wraps his arms around her. There was a time she wasn't so happy with the fact that she was pregnant. He changed a lot for her. Hell he even changed her.

"If you can't find a babysitter for tonight , it's alright if you bring him with you. I'll take care of the little guy." Gemma smiles. It's a cold smile with meaning Riley doesn't understand yet.

"Thanks Gemma. He seems to like it here".

Chibs is looking at the kid in Riley's arms. He seems happy with his mother and he looks like a happy kid. Nic looks at Chibs with his green eyes and puts his arms out as if he want to touch him. Chibs puts his finger in Nic's hand and he starts to smile.
