Chapter 4

Jax and Tara lay on their backs next to each other in bed, both staring up at the ceiling.

Tara broke the silence. "so what were you and Amber really doing in the storage closet?" Tara asked in a whisper voice.

"I never said we were in the storage closet that was your own imagination. We really were in the library working on our English papers and just lost track of time." Jax turned his head to face Tara trying to gage her reaction, but she remained staring at the ceiling.

Jax turned his head to its original position. "What was hale talking to you about?" Jax asked in the same whispered tone.

"He was asking me on a date this weekend"

"And?" Jax asked prying.

"And I said I had to work" Tara said turning her body to face Jax.

"That's not a no" Jax said turning his body to face her, "do you want to go out with him?" he asked raising an eyebrow.

"no, but there is also no reason to crush the guy. He is a nice person."

"Yeah right" Jax said rolling his eyes.

They were silent for a few minutes before Jax spoke again.

"Mom and dad are trying to figure out what to get you for your birthday."

"Tell them the same thing I say every year that the party is more than enough and they really shouldn't get me anything and can you try to get them to listen this time?"

"You know Gemma doesn't listen to anyone" Jax said with a matter of fact tone.

There was a few minutes of silence enough time that Jax had though Tara fell asleep until he heard her ask "Why do you want to be a son?"

Jax sighed "All I have ever wanted is a gun and a Harley. I've got one now I just need the other plus I believe in what they are fighting to protect.

Tara didn't say anything.

Jax continued "Don't you believe in them?"

Tara nodded her head in agreement.

"Then what's with the questioning?"

"I just worry, SONS get hurt and for some odd reason I would be sad if anything happened to you."

"It's my amazing charm" Tara rolled her eyes at his words.

"Go to sleep charmer before your ego gets too big to fit in the bed" Tara said rolling to face away from Jax. He chuckled to himself before pulling her body close to his and fell asleep holding her.
