Jamie giggled listening to Jax sing along to the radio, singing the wrong words. They had been on the road for almost a hour now, and the mall was in sight. "You don't listen to the radio that often, do you?" She asked.

"I usually ride my bike." Jax smiled before pulling into the parking lot. "Plus, this is my mother's station. It's her old car, and, like I said, I take my bike most of the time." He turned off the car once he was safely parked. "Are you ready?"

"Yeah, I think I am." Jamie nodded before getting out of the car, slinging her purse over her shoulder. She watched as Jax got out as well and readjusted his sunglasses before joining her, taking her hand into his. He seemed a little on edge. "Are you okay?"

Jax looked down at her before kissing her head reassuringly. "Just a little nervous. The last time I was here, there were some guys that weren't so friendly." He saw her frown, and quickly spoke to get rid of it. "I won't let them get to you as long as I'm right here. Just keep your hand in mine."

Jamie squeezed his hand a bit tighter. "Alright." She smiled when he wrapped his arm around her waist in a protective manner. He was showing affection in the only way he knew how, and that was enough for her. "It's hot out here. Jeez! New York is much colder than this in September."

"Well, babe, you are wearing a sweatshirt. Just take it off." Jax smiled stopping them. He saw her tense the slightest, making his stomach turn into knots. "What's wrong?"

Jamie bit her lip. "Well, it's my back. Uh... the whole Kathy situation... she came at me with a rolling pin." She never really had to explain this to anyone. No one ever saw her back except her family. Even then, she tried to hide it because of the look that came over her parents' faces. "It's just a scar."

Jax could tell it was a sensitive subject, but he knew about scars. He wanted her to be proud that she survived the stories behind those scars, no matter how defining they were. "Well, it's just you and me. I'll show you my scars if you show me yours." He felt relieved when he saw a smile break out across her face. "C'mon, I'll put the jacket in the car."

"I guess," She said after a moment. Her hands pulled the sweatshirt off over her head, handing him the article of clothing to reveal a black tang top underneath, "thank you." Jamie watched as he put the sweatshirt back in the car before walking back to her. He still hadn't seen her scar. "What scar do you have?"

"Barbed wire." Jax smiled before lifting up his t-shirt and showing him the scar on his hip. It was spiked along the sides, showing exactly where he was hit the hardest. "When I was younger, my brother and I went searching for a rattlesnake. Don't ask me why." Jamie laughed as he ran his finger over the scar. "Well, long story short, we took the wrong path."

Jamie ran her own hand over the scar, watching as goose bumps appeared around where her finger touched. She smiled lightly seeing the effect she had on him. She took a deep breath. "Well, mine is from being whacked with a rolling pin." She swept her hair aside to one shoulder before turning around, looking at her through the corner of her eye. His smile dropped from his face as he looked at the large scar that started on her right shoulder and disappeared diagonally down her shirt. The veins around the area were slightly darker, but the scar was pure white itself.

His hand reached out and ran over the discolored area. He didn't say anything as he stepped up closer behind her, wrapping his arms around her and burying his face into her hair. Jamie closed her eyes feeling his thumb rub against her jaw and down her neck. His lips pressed against her temple before he exhaling against her cheek. "I can't believe someone could do that to you."

"Well, the person who did it was imbalanced." Jamie whispered before he stepped back, keeping an arm around her tightly as they walked towards the mall. "You aren't freaked out?"

"No," Jax shook his head, looking down at her with a smile, "I'm actually proud of you." Jamie grinned up at him before kissing him hard, letting the car behind them wait.

Gemma smiled pulling up to the small store that had a new open sign hanging in its window. It made her laugh though when Clay fidgeted in the passenger seat yet again. "Would you just relax? Does it really bother you that much that you aren't driving?"

"Yes." Clay gritted out before rubbing his hands onto his jeans. "Why are we here anyway?"

"Well, we can at least see Elliot and Olivia on their first day of business. They seem like good people." Gemma stated before cutting off the engine. "Besides, they could be beneficial to the club." She leaned over and pressed a kiss to the corner of his mouth. "Do this for me, and I'll do you one."

Clay immediately got out of the car and hurried around to open her door for her. She had to laugh at him sometimes. He offered his hand to her before pulling her up out of the car. The limited space between her car and the one next to them caused her to be flush against him. He grinned at her, the one that always reminded her of a happy evil looking ape. It made her think back to when she first met him when John brought her by the clubhouse, but Clay didn't know she was already taken and decided to play 'bed the new girl'. "You know, we haven't broken in your new car yet."

Gemma smirked before sliding past him. "With good reason. The last time you and I broke in any type of vehicle, I ended up with the gear shift imprinted into my back for three days."

"At least, it gave me a guide on how to drive into you." Clay smiled at his own pun. She rolled her eyes, but couldn't help but chuckle to herself. "C'mon, I want candy." They both walked into the store, hearing the familiar bell above the door. Clay smiled when Elliot looked up at him. "So, how is the business of causing cavities?"

Elliot felt his stomach drop, but he didn't miss a beat. He plastered a smile onto his face. "Well, we just opened. So, I wouldn't know yet." He shook Clay's hand when he extended it. "What brings the two of you by?"

Gemma sat down on one of the barstools sitting by the counter. "We just wanted to see what you guys did with the place. I used to come here when I was in high school. It was the most popular place in Charming, well, besides anyone's basement."

"Really? I didn't know this place had been a candy store for that long." Elliot smiled before seeing Olivia walk out of the office wearing denim shorts and his button up dress shirt. If there weren't people around, he would've taken her right then and there. "Hey baby, look who stopped by."

Olivia grinned nervously as she walked over to Clay and Gemma. "Well, hey guys. I didn't know you were going to stop by." She received the hug from Gemma, smelling the faint oder of cigarettes and roses. It was an odd fragrance that seemed to fit the biker queen sitting in front of her. "How are you guys doing?"

"Pretty good. We were just on our way back to the shop, and we thought we'd stop in to say hi to our new neighbors." Gemma smiled before pulling out her wallet and handing out a ten dollar bill to Clay. "Don't forget to get Tiggy something." Clay nodded his head before going to look at the candy. "So, how are you settling into Charming."

"Other than you guys, we haven't really met a whole lot of people. We've been so busy with the store. But, Allen is loving the fact that he can ride his bike all over Charming without waiting for a walk sign." Olivia said glancing outside at the empty streets. "It's very different from Manhattan."

Gemma chuckled. "I bet it is. I'm pretty sure we saw him pedaling around out there. He reminds me of Jax."

Olivia smiled at her. "Yeah, he's definitely an outdoor guy." She joined Gemma by sitting down on the barstool next to her. "Otherwise, Jamie is making friends fast. She's mentioned Jax and Opie quite a few times."

"She's a really sweet girl." Gemma agreed with her.

"Thanks, Elliot and I have had to overcome a lot with her." Olivia sighed running a hand through her hair. She saw the slight confusion on Gemma's face. "Jamie was kidnapped when she was five years old. It's a really long story."

Gemma's eyes widened. "Oh my God! How did you handle that?"

Olivia closed her eyes, letting a sad smile form on her face. "I didn't; I fought like hell to get her back, and kept fighting until she was mine. Like I said, it's a really long story. I'm just glad I have her back. I can tell what happened still effects her, but she handles it really well."

"A mother will do anything to protect her children." Gemma nodded her head, looking outside at her car, squinting at the sunlight beaming off of it. "Why don't you and I get lunch sometime? We can get to know each other better, and, who knows, I might make a friend who isn't involved with the club."

"Yeah, that sounds great, actually." Olivia said before pulling out her phone and pulling up her contacts. "Just put in your number and we can set something." She knew this would be a way to talk about the other clubs around. Nothing criminal would be divulged, but, nonetheless, she could get some information about the neighboring motorcycle gangs. "It would be nice to have someone to talk to other than my husband."

Gemma chuckled before moving the collar of Olivia's shirt. "Well, the hickey on your neck tells me you two don't do much talking."

Please review! Love you guys!
