Walking into the clubhouse Tara gave the guys a small nod and walked down the hall towards Jax's dorm. Opening the door Tara walked in when she could hear the shower. Closing the door behind her Tara walked over to the bed and laid down. She would go home but since she knew Jax would end up here after the run, she decided to talk to him here. Leaning back against the headboard with her arm behind her head. Tara deeply sighs as she started up the ceiling. Her mind started to drift to the events that were happening in her office. During her medical career, Tara never needed a partner and she as hell didn't anyone to teach her anything she already knows. Tara has always been a very independent doctor. She never needed to work with anyone. Assisting other doctors during surgeries was one thing and Tara had no problem with it. It was part of her job. But a partner was something Tara never wanted or needed. So why start now?. Tara's thoughts were interrupted when she looked over and watched the bathroom door opening and walked out a very wet half naked Jax with a towel wrapped and hugging below his waist.

"I thought you were working?" Jax asked as he walked over to Tara. Leaning down he kisses her softly. He then noticed something wasn't right. He slowly pulls back and studies her face.

"Tara, what's wrong?"

Tara pressed her lips together in a thin line."I met my new partner this morning." Tara said bitterly.

"Oh right, Dr. Sanders." Jax said sitting down in front of her."Well, what is he like?"

Tara scoffed and rolled her eyes." Well, he's cocky. Arrogant and get this. He's sharing my office. My Damn office. Can't you believe that?!" Tara then leans back against the headboard again and sighs deeply.

"Can't Murphy get him a new office or something?"

Tara snorts and shook her head." According to her if we share the same office. I can learn from him. Please like he can teach me something I don't already know."She said with her arms crossed over her chest.

Jax chuckled."I am sure Dr. Sanders isn't all that bad and who knows maybe you can learn something from him."

Tara raised her brow for a moment." you're supposed to me on my side on this." She protested.

Jax placed his hands on her knees," Babe I am on your side. All I am saying maybe having a partner can't be all that bad," He said leaning in and kisses her softly and then rest his forehead against hers." Just give the guy a chance babe," He said softly,

Tara sighs softly as she closed her eyes and nods her head, As much as she doesn't want to work on with the new doctor she knows that Jax is right about this," Okay I will give him a chance, for now, So you ready to go home yet?" She asked him as she rests her hand against the side of his neck letting her hand play at the nap of his hair a little," The boys are at daycare and I was thinking we can spend few hours at home in our own bed until I gotta go pick them up," She said with a smirk and bit her bottom lip.

Jax smirks and groans." I want to but I can't, I gotta go with Clay to check out the new Cigar shop that just opened. I shouldn't be gone more than an hour or two, Why don't you just stay and sleep here." He leans over and kisses her cheek, He then got up and started to get dressed, Tara sighs softly as she laid down and then looks over at Jax for a moment,

" I was thinking of having a barbeque at the house this weekend, I mean with everything that has been going on for the last few months maybe we can all use a day off," She said as she smiles," I can talk to Gemma about it and see if she can get the girls to help out," Tara suggested, Jax threw his cut on and leans over and pecked on her lips,

" Sounds good, Just talk to Gemma. Get some rest babe," He kisses her once more," Love you, babe," He said as he walked out of the room and closed the door behind him. Tara breathe softly as she laid back down and rolled on to her side, After just laying there for a few moments later she closed her eyes and fell asleep,

A few hours later after a nap and a quick shower, Tara walked out of the clubhouse and headed towards the TM office. Walking up the steps she lightly knocked on the door when she saw Gemma sitting at her desk going through paperwork," Hey got a minute?" Tara asked as she walked into the office,

Gemma raised her head up and chuckled lightly as she smiled taking her reading glasses off and set them on her desk," Of course sweetheart," Gemma said leaning back against her chair," What's up?" Gemma asked,

Tara took a seat on the couch." Well, I was thinking of having a barbecue at my house this weekend and I was hoping you can get some of the croweaters to help out. Mostly just family some friends and that's about it," Gemma nods her head as she as sat up straight in her chair,

" Yeah I can do that, I think having a barbecue would be a good idea. I will have some of the girls go shopping with me on Friday to pick up whatever you need for the barbecue, When do you wanna have it?"

" I was thinking maybe Sunday if possible, I was just telling Jax that with everything going on and everything that has happened the past few months we could all use a day off, I know the club could definitely use one," Tara said smiling lightly, Tara then got up and placed the strap of her purse over her shoulder." Okay, I am gonna let you get back to work, I gotta go pick up the boys from daycare go home and make dinner," She said walking out of the office towards her car,

Tara then pulled out of the lot and into the afternoon traffic towards St, Thomas to pick up Abel and Thomas from daycare on her way home,

Tara had just got Thomas in his high chair and dinner on the table when Jax walked into the door, After pouring Abel some apple juice and setting his cup down Tara walked out of the kitchen." Hey babe," She said as she leans up and gave him a kiss," So how did it go at the Cigar shop?"

Jax shrugged his shoulders hanging up his cut," I don't know. Clay only went inside while we all stayed outside. But what I can say is that his partner Weston is rubbing me the wrong way," He kissed her cheek and walked into the kitchen and walked over to the fridge and grabs a long neck before joining his family at the table for dinner. Tara followed and took her seat across from Jax and sat between Abel and Thomas,

" I thought you were gonna stay at the clubhouse for Bobby's welcome home party,"

Jax shook his head setting his beer down." Nah I just went to say hi, I didn't feel like staying around that much longer,"

" So I talked to Gemma and she said she will have some of the croweaters go to the market on Friday to pick up the things we need for the barbecue I was thinking of having on Sunday," Tara said taking a sip of her red wine leaning back against the chair," It's gonna be mostly family and maybe a few friends but that's about it."

Jax nods his head taking a drink from his log neck," Yeah that sounds good, I got things to handle at Caracra then after that we should be good." During dinner, they all sat the table eating quietly when Tara heard her beeper going off, She set her fork down and got up walked over to the counter and took her cell off the charger, She then walked out into the kitchen to call the hospital.

" Dr, Knowles here," Now?" Tara asked as she looked through the kitchen." No, I will be there." Tara said as she hangs up and then walked back into the kitchen." That was one of the evening nurses. Um, Unser brought her in, Something about her having some kind of accident," Tara said waking back out into the living room and grabs her keys and purse when Jax followed her,

" I will call Clay,"

Tara nods her head," Yeah okay, I will call you guys once I figure out what happened," Tara said as she gave Jax a quick kiss on his lips and then walked out of the door. Jax deeply sighs and took out his burner and gave Clay a call to give him a heads up, Right now there's tension between him and his stepfather especially since Donna's funeral but Jax knows how much Clay loves Gemma,

Tara walked into the examining room and saw Gemma sitting on the table." What happened?" Tara question looking at Gemma who didn' say anything and just turned her head and Usner spoke up,

" Found her in a warehouse got an anonymous tip that Gemma was chain up against a fence in a warehouse told me to come to pick her up." Tara looks back over at Gemma." Jesus Christ," What happened Gemma?" Tara asked again walking up to her," I can't help if you won't talk to me here Gemma,"

Gemma didn't say much she then exhaled deeply." I was raped by three men," Was all she said when Tara pinched the bridge of her nose and sighs deeply, "I will check you out and make sure there's no tearing and bruising, Jax and Clay are on their way here though," Usner said something before Gemma could argue,

" I will talk to them." Tara nods her head as Unser walked out of the room, Tara then turned to face Gemma." Alright let me get this done, So I can run some test to make sure you didn't catch anything, It's just processor Gemma," Gemma just nods her head as she laid back down and then placed both feet against the stirrups,

Tara put on her gloves and took a seat between Gemma's legs to check her out and to make sure everything was fine," So how was Bobby's welcome home party?" Tara asked trying to get Gemma's mind off of what had just happened to her tonight, Gemma rested her hands back against her head and just shrugged her shoulders,

" it was a party, I was thinking of inviting Luanne and some of her girls to the barbecue on Sunday,"

"Does this include ima too?"Tara asked bitterly while finishing up examining Gemma, Tara doesn't have a problem with Luanne mainly because she doesn't know the woman that well and Lyla is alright but Ima is the one person that gets under her skin and the one person Tara wants to keep sway from Jax,

" Don't worry that whore won't go anywhere near the barbecue I will make sure of that," Tara isn't sure she should believe Gemma really but didn't say anything, She then got up and pulled her gloves off," There's no tearing or bruising so you got lucky there, I gotta go talk to Clay, What am I supposed to tell them here Gemma?"

" Jist tell them I crashed my car into a telephone pole got a few scrapes and bruises, They don't need to know what really happened, Not yet not until I am ready to tell them," Tara sighs softly as she placed her hands on her hips and then nods her head,

" Alright, I won't say anything but Gemma you can't keep this from them especially Clay."

" Yeah." Tara then nods her head," Well I am gonna go talk to them, I will come back and check on you in a little bit," Tara then walked out of the room closing the door behind her and heads towards the waiting room. As much as Tara hates keeping this kind secret from Jax and clay she knows Gemma has to be the one to tell them, She just hopes it will be soon,
