"Ready for your appointment, sweetie?" Gemma opened the front door to Jax' house with her key.
"Almost!" Kylie called back from the bedroom. Gemma followed the voice and found Kylie examining her pregnant belly in the mirror.
Gemma gave a small laugh, "What are you doin'?" she asked, leaning against the doorframe.
Kylie looked back at Gemma through the mirror as she pulled her t-shirt down, taut over her belly. "I think…whatever it is…they're going to be one attractive kid…" she said with a wink, turning around and grabbing her sweater off the bed.
"Well I could have told you that….have you seen the parents?" she asked as Kylie passed her out of the room and they headed for the front door, "And the grandparents?" she added with a sarcastic grin. Kylie knew Gemma hated being called grandma- but the great thing about Gemma was that she was always willing to laugh- even at herself.
Kylie laughed, "Of course…I'm sure they'll get their looks from the father's side…" she climbed into Gemma's passenger seat and Gemma climbed into the driver's seat. "Not without help from their mother…" Gemma finished. She leaned over and kissed Kylie's temple before starting the car and heading towards the hospital.
After a moment of silence Kylie began the conversation again, but this time in a more solemn tone, "I just wish Jax would give it a chance…I don't think he's looked farther down than my eyes in five months…"
"Oh sweetie," Gemma reached out and grasped Kylie's hand in her own, "He just doesn't know what to do…but give him time. He'll surprise you…I promise…I had a Teller man of my own once you know…" she comforted the girl.
Kylie gave a small smile, "I sure hope so…" she took a breath, her hands resting on her swollen belly. "I know so." Gemma finished.
They arrived at the hospital and were placed in a room where Kylie was up on a bed and Gemma sat on a chair, waiting. "The doctor will be in shortly." And the nurse left.
"Where's Jax?…he said he'd be here…" Kylie muttered after a few minutes of waiting. Gemma sighed, "I'll call him." She patted Kylie's knee and headed just outside the room to get cell service. But no one answered the phone. "Goddammit…" she muttered. So then she tried Clay- still no answer. "What the hell are they doing?" she grumbled.
But that was when her phone rang. Looking at it expectantly, she found that it was Opie's phone, "Where the hell are you guys? Jax is late for the appointment…"
Gemma re-entered the room looking solemn, pondering how to tell Kylie what was going on. But Kylie sensed her worry and sat up, "What? What is it Gemma?"
"They've been arrested for aggravated assault. They're locked in county." She said, "Op's on his way…he missed the fun…"
Kylie looked at Gemma. Being locked in county was bad for the six of them…very bad. They could be killed. She took a short intake of breath and Gemma grabbed her hand, "It'll be okay…we'll figure it out…"
