After conversing over there surf and turf dinner and dessert getting to learn each other better the two made their way over to the local carnival funtown to meet up with the rest of the guys. upon arriving they ran into Opie and Donna, Jax loving how the two instantly connected and wondered off to play games with the kids giving jax the time to explain to his brothers how the first part of there date night went. the group of men gossiping like teen girls. the guys stopping when they heard the clown in the dunk tank say " why dont you and your leather clad butt buddies give it a whirl unless you throw like a girl!" instantly pissing the bikers off causing tig an jax to jump up while juice pushed the button that made him drop into the water the pair repeatedly dunking the screaming man under while they all laughed.

Donna, River and the kids waited in line to ride the whirl a twirl when river started chatting up a well put together lady and her Young daughter Tristan after the woman complimented Rivers boots and began to go into detail about a clothing shop she was working on in the town over pretty much offering river a job based off of her clothing alone which thrilled her to no ends so she was more than happy to take the job offer while she waited to complete school. they exchanged numbers and went there separate ways.

Jax and the rest of the guys standing at the exit of the ride waiting for the group to get off. when Gemma and clay walked up seeing the Oswalds walk out of the gates just behind River and Donna. speaking to the couple that they went to school with when they were younger. Tristan asking to get on the ride again her parents saying no, but jax gave her his tickets with a wink Bobby stating that "Jax screams llike a little girl anyways" causing The young girl to giggle and runn back to the line. Mrs. Oswald saying thank you and then turned to me with a wide smile " I"ll Call you tomorrow with further information and to get paperwork out of the way sweetheart." her pulling me into a hug " yes Ma'am Talk to you tomorrow". the group of bikers wondering what that was about.

sitting at a table with the rest of samcro eating a variety of carnival foods Jax sat close to river the two whispering and smiling as if they knew each other for years. "there's something i need to ask you..well tell you?!" jax said his voice taking on a serious tone him watching river get nervous for the first time tonight squirming in her seat him mentally peeling the lowcut dress off of her " ok" finally came her reply him not knowing any other way to say it so he just blurted it out " Im going through a divorce and i have a preemie son in the icu" everyone at the table seemed to go quite and looked to the freshly budding couple at the end of the bench Rivers calm reply making all of there eyes go wide " ok...Shes not going to try and kill me or something right...I dont think Aspen would like that" causing Jax to burst with laughter "Nah Darlin" he laughed shaking his head " your son? whats his Name?" before jax could even say anything the sound of someone yelling "Tristan" broke through the air turning the night on its head.

waking up in his bed the memories of the night before making him smile, then suddenly he sat stark up right slinging the covers from him bursting out of his bedroom in his boxers going to get information on the little girl that got assaulted last night. taking a quick shower throwing on a pair of baggy jeans and a white T pulling his Kutt on top walking out the door locking it behind him. making his way down the road loving the feel of his Dyna beneath his legs. looking to the side jax noticed a slew of police cars with a tent pulling a body out cursing to himself as he sped off a since of dread taking over.

walking into the clubhouse swagger in each step he made eyes scanning for his stepfather/ President landing on him sitting at a table sorting through bills. talking in a hushed tone " Hey just watched them pull a body up on I44...That us?" tig just so happened to be walking past stopping in his tracks "should be 3 brotha" he stated laying a hand on Clays shoulder the two of them looking at each other "shit lets go" clay throwing the pile of mail on the table getting up "im coming with" jax said causing clay and tig to look at each other in annoyance.

"see i told you 3 bodies" tig said hitting jax in the chest. "was a bloody year that one, we should go before they spot us. see if juice can dig up were they are taking those bodies to run a little interference" the three men mounting there bikes heading back to TM.

pulling into the lot walking their bikes into the row of harleys where theirs belonged jerking the kick stand into place jax made his way back inside for the second time today seeking out juice so he could ask about Oswalds Kid Tristan. spotting his goofy mohawked friend playing pool with happy. him walking over observing the game. " Is there any intel on oswalds kid yet?" juice stopping what he was doing immediately switching into work mode. " No man Oswald wont let anyone near her." juices face softening just thinking about the trauma the kid had endured. "i kinda cant blame them man, shits foul." jax and Happys head bobbing " I know man we gotta figure something out though."

River POV

sitting in the cold little hospital room watching the Tv with Tristan and Mrs. Oswald, I sat listening to her thank me for coming and her repeatedly stating she doesn't understand the attachment she feels towards me as if i was her child. " Tristan honey we'll be right back ok."her not letting a sound escape her chapped lips me smiling at her nodding for reassurance running my fingers through her hair. " I'll be right back,I promise" a small smile tugging at her lips me following her mom out into the hallway as soon as the door closed the older lady breaking down and crying into my arms me holding and comforting her to the best of my abilities "it'll be fine she's a strong girl, I'll help as much as i can Mrs. Oswald." her sniffles an sobs subsiding " Karen sweetheart, Call me Karen" i smile giving her another hug "ima go grab a cup of coffee and catch a smoke, keep Tristan company for me yeah?" leaning against the door hearing familiar voices drifting towards my ears i looked up into the faces of Gemma and Jax walking towards the nicu no dought where the baby was. jax stopping in front of me "what are you doing here, everything ok Darlin?" concern seeping out, straightening myself "mhm, here with Tristan" looking up at him through my eyelashes watching his eyebrow quirk at the new information he just received. " look you think you can ask her who hurt her" the look on my face automatically saying that i wasnt comfortable doing so. Jax taking my hand " Please Your probably the only one she'll talk to." thinking about it i bob my head "ok,what are you going to do when she tells me" jax smirking "wouldnt you like to know" grabbing my hand planting a kiss on it " when Mrs. Oswald comes back, come to nicu room 313 got someone i want you to meet"
