Valerie couldn't stop crying. It was all that she could to just to be brave enough to help Happy's sister with her daughter Tessa. Seeing the sweet newborn in her arms just made her think of her baby nephew. She fought so hard to rescue him and did everything that she could.
Though fucking Cameron Hayes got the best of her. She was feeling nothing but guilt. Valerie was like I should have done this, I should have done that, I should have just fucking shit and killed him. Jail time, maybe, but her nephew would be home safe with her brother just like her fiance's niece is safe in her arms.
Tessa was such a sweet baby. Valerie just cuddled her and had a hard time giving her up. She was thankful that Happy's brother in law helped her at that record store. She had no idea how she was going to get somewhere and she was just beside herself.
She felt how ironic it was when the shit hit the fan she always ended up at her fiance's sister's place. Though she loved Diana, Marcus, and especially Tessa. Besides Happy's mom and Aunt those three were all that Happy had besides herself and the club.
Being family oriented she embraced her fiance's family and loved them. Valerie smiled and also cried a little bit as Tessa just laid her small head on her shoulder falling asleep. Carrying her future baby niece in her arms she went into the nursery laying her down on her bed before kissing her.
"She loves you, you know Aunt Val." said Diana.
"Don't put too much faith in me. I couldn't save Abel. I tried so hard, but I couldn't. Now I have no idea where he is at. I know my brother must be beside himself. I need to get home so I can help him." said Valerie.
"You need to take it easy. You over did it and it's catching up to you. My brother is coming after you day after tomorrow for the funeral. Though he said that he wanted you to take it easy until then." said Diana.
"Fuck and Mom's on the lamb. I feel just helpless that I cannot do anything." said Valerie.
"Listen I don't know what went down with your mom, but you are not alone. You have Marcus and I along with Happy. As much as this SAMCRO thing divides us with the Mayans it doesn't shatter our family. Clay Marrow is the one who started the war. Our small family stays strong and keeps together and no matter what it's Happy, our mother, and our aunt." said Diana.
"Clay and I have a sketchy history. Only four people know about it, and that's Jax, Tara, Opie, and Lyla. Everyone else knows that we never got along because of a step parent step child thing, and because I didn't want to deal with his bullshit I moved out at eighteen. It's more than that. I don't want to get into it because I don't want to start a war. If I tell you you'll tell Marcus and just like that it'll be SAMCRO V/S Myans 2.0. and they don't need a war right now. If I tell Happy he'll do something to get a Mayhem vote. I'm dealing, and I'm fine. I'm happy and in a good place. Only thing is I let my nephew down!" said Valerie.
"Val, there is only one thing that will spark off all that shit that you just mentioned. Only one fucking thing." said Diana.
"Diana please don't read between the lines and try to figure shit out because I'm fine and I don't want any trouble with SAMCRO and the Mayans. There is enough mistrust going on with the Niners getting pissed about them selling to your husband." said Valerie.
"NO! JUST HUSH!" Diana was fighting her demons and she was on the verge of losing it. "Do you know what probably would end up happening? SAMCRO, MAYANS, and Niners having peace and talking out that shithead Clay!" said Diana.
"I'm over it! Another thing you know my fiance. He's your brother. He would shoot first and ask questions later and because of that he'll get a Mayhem vote for killing a club president. Hell the mother charter's president." said Valerie.
"It would never go through if you told everyone the truth about what that asshole did to you." said Diana.
"It would break my mom's heart and I cannot do that to her. Just please please please don't say anything to Marcus or Happy, or your mom and aunt. Just please." Valerie begged.
"I don't know if I can. Listen Marcus's sister dealt with the same thing with our stepdad and she ended up killing herself because the pain was too much. It hits too close to home." said Diana.
"I'll tell Happy and Mom eventually about Clay. Now isn't the time. Just please don't say anything to anyone. Please." Valerie begged as tears started falling.
"Come here sweetie." said Diana as she just embraced her brother's fiance as she was remembering a hurtful moment. "I won't say a thing. I see now how hard it is for you." she added.
Later on she was asleep in the master bedroom beside her fiance's sister and on the other side Marcus was asleep on the other side of her. It was an arrangment that went on every time Valerie stayed at the house. Marcus cared alot about the woman who was engaged to his wife's only sibling. Thus he looked out for her and would kill anyone who tried to hurt her.
Tessa cried for her night feeding so Valerie decided to take care of her. In a way it would help her since she was blaming herself for her baby nephew. Valerie felt she didn't fight hard enough. She should have screamed at the bus driver to just go. Hit the gas and go. Instead she was thrown off the bus and hit in the face by Jimmy before he once again took her nephew.
"Hey little one it's Aunt Val. Please don't cry sweetie I have some num num for you." she said as she poured ready to pour Simulac Advance into a bottle before sitting the infant on her lap and giving her the bottle.
"I love you just as much as Abel. I feel so bad because I lost him. I did everything that I could, and yet I came up short. I promise to protect you no matter what and, I'll be just a phone call away. Hopefully you know that your mom loves you so much. You came at the right time. Your mom had just lost your older brother and then you came. You saved her and gave your mom another chance to be a mom. I love my mom. She is my world. I have a major secret that only your mom, my brother, his girl Tara, his best friend Opie, and Opie's girl Lyla know. From the age of fourteen until I moved out at eighteen my stepfather Clay has been abusing me in a certain way. Because of everything it took me a long time to trust a man. Then I went off to college in Tacoma. I met your mommy's brother since his dorm was next to mine. It took alot for me to finally give him a shot and once I did I fell in love. Okay lets burp you." said Valerie as she burped the infant.
She had no idea that Marcus Alvarez was listening to the entire speech that Valerie Teller was giving her soon to be husband's niece. All he felt was rage when he heard what had happened to her. He made a decision out of rage, and had no idea what would happen in the next twenty four hours because of it.
Sixteen year old Valerie Teller was pulled from sleep by a new sensation that she never felt before. She felt a large tongue in a place that shouldn't be addressed. She felt all these new sensations that felt so good, but so wrong at the same time.
"You will figure out more when you turn eighteen sweetheart. Man you taste so fucking sweet."
"Get off me!"
"Don't say a fucking word to anyone. News flash I killed your dad and it's no problem for me to kill his offspring also."
Valerie sat up in bed nearly screeching. She felt arms around her and she saw that both her fiance's sister and brother in law were embracing her.
"I'm sorry I had a bad dream." said Valerie.
"It's alright. Thanks for doing a couple of the night feedings. Believe me the extra rest is appreciated." said Diana as the phone went off. "Hello, well give us more notice dipshit! How's mom doing?"
"Oh boy sibling war." Valerie joked as she laid back.
"My lovely brother is on his way to get you. Oh do you have any extra money. Hate to ask, mom's perscriptions are getting out of hand at how pricy they are. Happy is doing it all. Marcus and I don't have that much. It's bullshit that perscriptions have to be so damn expensive." said Diana.
"I'll put off college for a semester or two, and send the money to mom. She's gonna be my mother in law and I want her to get well. You and Happy mean everything to one another and vice versa." said Valerie. Diana just hugged her.
Valerie made a decision to help her future mother in law and she didn't regret it at all. She loved Happy with everything in her and that included his sister, brother in law, mom, and aunt.
It was a few hours after Happy picked her up at his sister's house, and she was now at Half Sack's funeral. She overheard Kozik asking Clay about patching over to a smaller charter. She didn't know him well, but Happy considered him as his best friend so she was fine with it.
The Tig thing was a bit silly. Accident's happen, mistakes are made. Move on. Valerie ended up walking out with Tara after the wake when the shit hit the fan. A van came by and then opened fire on everyone. Kozik shoved her to the ground covering her with his body while Jax did the same to Tara. Seconds later David Hale was run down trying to stop the van.
Kozik helped her to her feet and embraced her in a brotherly manner while Jax went at the person who was in the van and proceeded to beat the shit out of him. Little did she know it was her fault because she was talking to Tessa and her father mad a decision in pure rage!
