(Jax POV)

The threat of the drama that was going to go down was not taken lightly. It was a huge hit put out on us by some really nasty guys. I was worried about my family. It made me a better dad to be worried about them. We had just found out about Julie's pregnancy. I was worried about how she would handle the stress of being in the clubhouse all the time. The boys were used to being here so it was nothing new to them. The meals that were being cooked were going to have to be on a much larger scale to feed us all. I hoped that Gemma and Julie were up for it. Donna would do anything to jump in and help so I knew it would all be taken care of. We had guys on the roof that were armed at all times and guys on the gate that stayed armed. Cars were parked so that the gate couldn't be just pushed open and no one could walk in. We were lucky that the cars in the shop were all ours. None of them were civilian cars now. Julie came walking back over to me. Clay had just given his speech to all the families.

"I have some good news to share with you all," Clay said.

"What good news could you have at a time like this?" Piney asked.

"I'm gonna be a grandpa again. Just found out today."

Congrats were thrown around for Julie and me. I had both my boys close to me at all times until Clay called church. I handed Brayden to his mother and followed the others into the room.

"All right, everyone is here and now it's time to be sure they stay safe." Clay said.

I sat in my chair and leaned back.

"What's the plan?" I asked.

"Well they want to push into Charming, we are going to have to beat them back a few steps." Clay said.

"Baseball style or other?"

"I don't care how."

I nodded. We set up a plan and called the meeting. I walked back out to my family. Julie was getting Brayden a cup of water. She glanced my way. I went over to kiss her before we headed out. She walked out with us with Brayden in her arms. I sighed. Gemma came out with Abel to see us off. I looked at my wife.

"We got this under control babe," I said.

She nodded. I sighed heavily. Julie was always behind me a hundred percent. I looked at my kids and knelt in front of Abel.

"Take care of your mom, lil man," I said.

"I will, daddy." He replied.

I got on my bike, put my helmet on, and started it up. We all headed out. Clay looked at me as we drove down the road. I was ready to do this. We all were ready for this.

(Julie's POV)

As we watched the guys pull out, Gemma pulled Donna and I close to her. She had Abel in front of her. I was worried about my family.

"They'll be ok," Gemma said.

I nodded. They were out handling business while we were keeping everyone in the clubhouse going.

"Let's get all these people back inside," Gemma said, ushering Abel toward the door.

I carried my youngest son inside. Gemma had Abel with her. Donna had Ellie and Kenny with her to make sure they got inside. I made sure that both my boys made it back where they should be. I was holding down the fort like I was supposed to. It was just expected for me to be the princess of SAMCRO because I was Jax's old lady. Gemma looked at me.

"What's wrong?" she asked.

I shrugged. She looked at me.

"Jules, you will be all right, Jax will be here for the baby," she said.

"I know he will," I said.

"Then what's wrong?"

"I honestly don't know."

"Is it the baby?"

"No, it's not the baby. It's just everything that is going on."

"Honey, this is just a bad time. We will be back on top soon. You just have to have faith with us."

"I'm here, Gemma. I really am, but I have to think of the kids too."

"I know Jules."

I looked over at my boys. Abel was playing with some cars. Brayden was watching him thru the pack n play sides. I couldn't imagine my life any different than it already was. Jax was amazing with the kids and I didn't want to live life without him. Gemma was still watching me.

"It will get better. This isn't the first hard time you have dealt with." Gemma said.

"I know Gemma, I just worry about Jax when he is going out doing things like this," I replied. "I don't wanna have to tell my boys that daddy isn't coming home."

"I know you don't, Jules. I don't want that either."

I nodded. I looked away from the boys and around the clubhouse. Every one of the women that were here belonged to someone. I knew they were all thinking the exact same thing that I was thinking. I looked at Gemma again. She put her hand on my arm. I put my hand on her hand.

"We are in this together, hun." She said.

I nodded. The guys were gone for about three hours. I was definitely ready for them to be back when I heard the motorcycle engines outside. I went to see my husband. Both boys were taking a nap in our room. Jax got off his bike. He looked a lot calmer than he had when he left. I smiled. He came over to me. I saw that everyone had made it back alive and well. There were a few bruises but that was it.

"Where are the boys?" Jax asked.

"Sleeping," I said.

He nodded and kissed me. We walked into the clubhouse together.

"Abel is actually taking a nap?" he asked.

"He isn't feeling good. His arm was bothering him so I gave him some Tylenol." I said.

"Poor guy."

"He will be all right. He is tough like his daddy."

"I believe it."

He smiled and pulled me close to him. I grinned.
