Sorry it's a little short and if there are any typos!
The next day Jax insisted on going to the clubhouse together to break the news to his family and the boys after I got off work. So when I got off instead of going home I met Jax outside the clubhouse, he was sitting on a table just out front, smoking a cigarette and talking with Opie and Chibs. When he saw me pull up he broke out in a smile and said something to the two men before coming to greet me. As soon as he reached me he wrapped his arms around my waist and excitedly kissed me, "hey baby, you ready? My moms inside and everything." He looked like such a giddy boy that it made my heart swell up with happiness, I was so lucky to have Jax be mine. "Yeah baby, I'm ready," I gave him another kiss before he draped his arm around my shoulder and drew me in close so we could go inside to let everyone in on the good news.
Gemma was sitting at the bar smoking with Clay standing near her, talking to her about something but when we walked in everyone's attention was on us. Jax cleared his throat and loudly spoke to everyone inside, "Harley and I have something we need tell everyone.." He paused to give me a smile before continuing, "looks like there will be another little hell raiser coming soon." The whole room broke out in excited cheers and everyone began to come up to us and give us their congratulations. Gemma came up to Jax first and kissed her son on the cheek before excitedly exclaiming, "I'm gonna be a grandma baby! I'm gonna start buying baby things as soon as I can.. I'll get those cute little onesies!" Jax huffed at his mom and rolled his eyes, "come on mom, we don't even know the sex of the baby yet!" In return Gemma lightly hit Jax, "I'll buy neutral baby things until we find out" she smiled at him before making her way to me while Clay came up to Jax. "It seems I was right about you having a glow about you that day" I scoffed at her, "you mean a glow of sickness?" She laughed and shook her head, "no, I guess only a mother can see things like that.. Call it a mother bears intuition." As Gemma and I kept chatting I could see Clay lean into Jax and whisper something in his ear so only he could hear. I tried to not notice them when Jax turned towards me and interrupted what his mother was saying to let me know he would be right back, "Clay needs to talk to me about some shit.. I'll be right back, come get me if you need anything." He kissed me quickly and then followed Clay off to the back, my concentration was broke from watching Jax walk away when I heard Gemma huff, "seems like buisness around here can never wait a minute." I knew all too well what Gemma met and I was always going to have to share Jax.
After awhile Gemma excused herself to go to attend to other things and I took the opportunity to sit on the couch next to Donna who watched Opie from a little distance play pool with some other men. "So where are the kids tonight?" I asked her, "sitter, Opie said Jax called him earlier today and asked if we could be here tonight and it's not everyday we get the chance to use the babysitter card, so we were grateful." I laughed thinking of how my own life would be changing shortly and if I'd be able to get alone time with Jax anymore when Donna brought me out of my thoughts when she asked, "do you want a boy or girl?" I didn't answer her right away because I really didn't know what I wanted, I just knew I wanted a healthy baby and Jax's baby so I pondered the question a minute before replying, "I suppose I'd want a boy.. What else would be better than having two Jax's in my lives?" We both laughed and after she took a sip of her beer she said, "I really hate the two of you," I was caught off guard by her statement because I really didn't know the reasoning behind it and sensing my confusement she kept going, "I just envy the love y'all have.. You left for so long then you come back and it's all fireworks and no love lost. I see the way Jax looks at you and nothing else matters in the entire world but you. Literally. When you weren't around all the light left him and he didn't care if he lived or died.. I don't know, I just wish I had y'all's crazy intense love." It surprised me hearing what she was saying but I guess when your so wrapped up in your own love story you don't see what it looks to other people. "Yeah but you and Opie are crazy about each other," Donna looked loving at Opie from across room and said, "we love each other, for sure.. It's just not what you and Jax have."
I waited about 30 minutes until Jax reappeared and found me. "You ready to go?," he said and I shook my head, I wish I could have stayed longer but after working I was pretty tired. Jax and I made our way around and said goodbye before heading to the parking lot. I walked to the direction of my car when Jax tugged on my hand to stop me, "I actually wanted to take you somewhere so lets take my bike." I gave him a funny look but I didn't protest because even though I was tired my curiosity got the better of me. I hopped on the back and clung tightly to Jax, enjoying the closeness the bike ride gave us. "Hold on tighter babe, don't want nothin' happening to you and that baby," he said looking over his shoulder grinning and I tightened my grip around him, smiling. I didn't know where he was taking me but hell I didn't care, feeling the wind blast across my face and the vibration from the motorcycle going through my body felt amazing. I could only hope when Jax and I was old and wrinkly we would still be blazing down the empty back roads of Charming. When Jax finally pulled over it was it was in the middle of no where and just fields on both sides of us, "what are we doing here Jax?" He put his helmet on his handlebars and grinned at me, "you'll see babe.. Trust me." I did trust him, with everything I had. He intertwined his fingers through mine and we made our way through the slightly tall grass, it was quite a walk until we came across a good sized pond with a pier leading out on it. It was absolutely beautiful with the moon and stars reflecting across the water and so peaceful with the chirping of crickets. "Oh my god Jax! This place is beautiful!" I exclaimed as we walked to the end of the wooden pier, "I know, that's why I wanted to take you here.. I spent a lot of time out here while you were gone trying to clear my fucked up head." We sat down at the very end with our feet dangling off and just sat in silence for a while, admiring the sheer beauty of nature. "How did you find this place?" I asked him, "it's property that belongs to some customers of SAMCRO.. The guy bragged about this place to me so many times and told me I should come out here one day and finally I did. After that, I found myself out here pretty often." I looked at Jax as he gazed up at the stars feeling pretty guilty of the pain I put him through, I couldn't imagine being the one left in Charming all by myself. "I know I've said I'm sorry a lot but I can't stress to you how much I feel shitty about myself for leaving you, I should have pushed harder for you to come with me or came back or even found some other way.. I could-" Jax cut me off before I could finish, "shut up already Harley.. I don't care anymore, I forgive you. Fuck, maybe you leaving was what needed to be done to lead to this very moment.. I'd go through all those years without you again if it meant ending up where we are now so don't apologize to me anymore." So I didn't, I laid my head down on Jax's shoulder and watched the lightening bugs swarm over the pond, this place was truly magical. "I love you Jackson Teller, my soul will always belong to you" I felt him smile, "and my soul will always be yours.. I'd give you the world if I could Harley." I didn't need the world though because I already had him and that was just as good.
The next few days went pretty routine, I worked, came home to Jax, then did it all over again. I was living pretty fucking blissfully in my fairy tale until one day it came crashing down in one altercation at work. I was standing at the nurses station reviewing a chart for an upcoming operation when I heard a nurse from down the hall saying, "ma'am can I help you with something? Ma'am! You can't go down there unless you check in, ma'am!" The commotion made me look up from my work to see Wendy, looking terrible and pissed off, she was headed directly for me. I asked the nurse at the station to call security because I knew Wendy was here for one thing and that was trouble. "You just had to fucking come back here didn't you Harley!" Wendy greeted me when she finally reached me, she looked as though she had been crying because her make up was all smeared and running, "Wendy please leave, you have no business being here." I tried to keep my cool and remember I was at work, "Jax was mine! He was my husband! And you, you fucking cunt had to return on your white fuckin' horse and steal him back! I loved him and we could have worked on our marriage if you didn't come back!" Wendy's eyes were blazed with rage and maybe even fueled by whatever drug she had taken so I was thankful when I saw the security officers coming quickly down the hall. "I hope your fuckin' baby dies you stupid bitch!" She hurled one more insult at me before the officers reached her and detained her. "You need help Wendy.. Leave me and Jax alone," I firmly said to her and was about to walk away when she said one more thing to me while the officers were handcuffing her that left me shaken, "well you should know I'm pregnant too.. Jax fucked me a month before you came back!" I stood frozen in place, watching in horror as they escorted Wendy out of the hospital not fully wrapping my mind around what she had said until it hit me. I ran to the bathroom and puked from the anxiety, shock, and whatever else emotion that ran through me. When I was done I sank onto the floor and cried, I wanted so badly to dismiss what she said as bullshit but what if she really was carrying Jax's baby? Could I get over that? Could I accept a child that was his from a woman I hated?
As I sat on the hard tile floor a complete mess I heard on the overcom that I was being paged, "Dr. Clemont please come to the head of Directors office immediately" I cussed silently to myself but willed me to get up and clean up before heading down there. I looked at myself in the sink and hated seeing the face staring back at me, just as Wendy had looked my eyeliner and mascara ran down my face so I took a paper towel and tried my best to fix it. When I was satisfied I looked presentable I head to see Mr. Branson. I knocked softly on his door before entering, he looked up at me from his computer and waved me to come sit. I sat in the chair and waited for him to speak first, "Dr. Clemont I was just informed of the incident that just happened.. I wanted to make sure you were okay," he looked at me concerned. "Thank you, I'm fine and I can't apologize enough that that happened in front of the patients and staff." He shook his head and held out his hands, "I understand it was nothing you did, I already have made sure there will be no more incidents like this one.. Go home Dr. Clemont, you're pregnant and I can tell this put a lot on you, I don't need you working today." Normally I'd hate to be sent home but I don't think my mind could focus on work if it tried so I thanked him for being understanding and I left.
