Meanwhile outside:
"Come on Megs, calm down." Koz said.
"How can I calm down Koz? My brother just called me a whore in front of my family. He technically said I slept with all you Tacoma guys, that's not right okay. I can take it from other people but when it comes from my own brother it cuts deep. I've been gone for such a long time and I get that he doesn't know me anymore but he didn't have to say that not after me having Liam. If he would've said that before I had Liam I probably would have laughed it off but no I'm a mother and he says that." Megan said with tears in her eyes.
"Ssshhh its okay Megs." Koz said while pulling her into a hug.
Megan wrapped her arms around Koz and said, "I can't handle this Koz. I thought maybe just maybe things would be so much better here but I just feel like things are worse. Things with Jake were simpler even if he wasn't there a lot."
"Baby girl I know but come on, we all know you weren't happy over there because your whole family was here in Charming. Jake may have made things simpler for you but did you really want Liam to grow up without knowing who his real father was?" Koz said in a knowing understanding voice.
By this time Happy had made his way to them.
"Okay so what happened?" Happy asked.
"Everything Hap. I don't know how much more of this I can handle. You know me I don't do well with kind of stuff, I didn't have to deal with this stuff in Tacoma with you guys. Everything there was so much easier for me and I didn't have to fight to defend myself every waking moment." Megan said in an upset voice.
"You realize that's because we know what you went through while your family here doesn't know what you meant through. They cant begin to imagine being a single mother not even Gemma because she had Clay when JT died."
Megan nodded and said, "Yeah well they may not know what I went through but I'm still their daughter and yet they allow Jax to speak to me like that, yeah I don't think so. I wanted my family to get to know my son and I wanted my son to get to know his family but not like this, not with all of this fighting that goes around here. If its not me and Juice fighting its me and Jax. Or Clay and Jax. I can't continue to do this to Liam, it isn't fair to him. I don't want to leave again but I don't want Liam to be around all of this. I get that he has MC blood in him and that maybe someday he's going to want to do this but I don't want him to know the whole life at such a young age. He's still me baby and I want to protect him even it means protecting him from his own family."
Both Koz and Happy nodded. Happy said, "Even in Tacoma he was around this baby girl."
"Yeah but he wasn't around the whole life only the need to know basic stuff like I was even though I did know the entire story. Jake kept this family grounded like a normal family and now we aren't going to have that. Don't get me wrong I love you guys cause you guys are family but at the same time I want my son to grow up differently than I had to grow up. I grew up around and I've known the full story on what the MC does since I was little and well it wasn't a good thing for me." Megan said.
"Maybe it'll be a good thing for Liam." Koz said.
"Maybe, maybe not. I don't want to take that chance for him to get to know his family and have them go away to prison or get killed. Trust me I've been through that. My dad, my brother, my family went to jail and all I was left with was my mother and a mess to clean up. Half my life I didn't have anyone but my mom, I don't want that for Liam I want him to grow up with his entire family that means the Tacoma guys too." Megan said.
"Just think about what you're gonna do because if you make a decision right now you might make the wrong decision just stay away from away right now and if Liam wants to come to the garage Koz or I will go pick him and bring him." Happy said.
Megan nodded and said, "I was kind of hoping that you two would stay with me at the houseā¦I don't want to be alone right now and well since I'm back in town the rivals of the mother charter might know and I want to have Liam safe ya know."
Both of the guys nodded.
"Well I'm gonna go home, you guys stay and have fun. I just need to think things through. If you guys are gonna go to the house tonight the extra key is under the mat. Have a nice night boys" With that being said Megan walked to her car while Koz and Happy walked back into the clubhouse.
"So what happened?" Piney asked.
"She went home." Happy said.
"That's all?" Piney asked.
"Yep." Happy said.
"Alright what the hell? Why are you just giving me short answers? I'm not the one who got her pissed off that was Jax and Juice. So you better tell what the fuck happened right now." Piney said ticked off.
"You want to know what happened? Well fine then let me enlighten you on this situation. Megan is thinking about leaving again because she's afraid that something might happen to her son, she doesn't want this life for him and she doesn't want him to grow up the same way she did. She doesn't want his family to be coming in and out of his life just because they go to jail. She's afraid that when or if you guys go to prison that all Liam is going to have left is her and she's going to have to clean up that emotional mess the same way Gemma had to do when she was younger. And sublimely she said that she doesn't want Liam to grow up without a father." Happy said with a glare."
Everyone in the room stayed silent but then Tig said, "That girl is one fire cracker."
Koz glared and said, "She didn't mean it like that Tiggy. And she's gonna stay away from all of you for awhile. Happy and I already agreed to bring Liam to garage whenever he wants to, so you guys will still be able to see him but not her. Don't go over to her house or I will shoot you I don't care if you are my brothers like I said before I would choose her over you guys any day."
"I'm gonna go over to her place. I don't want her to be alone tonight." Happy said.
"I'll go with you. I don't feel like partying anymore." Koz said.
They both then walked out of the clubhouse and to their bikes and rode off to Megan's house.
BACK IN THE CLUBHOUSE:
"Well that was awkward." Opie said.
Clay sighed and said, "Am I really that blind to see that my own daughter is hurting?"
"Brotha you aren't blind you just aren't her mother to be able to detect if something is ever wrong." Bobby said.
"I feel like I failed her not only because of what just happened but I let Jax speak to her in that way." Clay said.
"Give her time to process everything. She'll forgive you in time and maybe she wont leave and she'll stay here with her family for good." Bobby said.
