Love In the Air

Jax opened the door of Club 101 and let Skye enter. As soon as they walked in it seemed as if all eyes were on them. Jax took Skye's hand and together they walked through the crowd of friends, family and enemies. As they made their way through and said their hellos, everyone seemed to be more interested in the reason they were called there.

Jax assured them that when the time was right he would make his announcement. Skye spotted her father and Monica and pulled Jax her direction as they went over to speak with them. Skye hugged both Alan and Monica, "I'm so glad you could make it" Skye said with a glowing smile.

"We wouldn't miss it for the world honey" Monica replied.

As Skye looked round the room she noticed something, it didn't matter what others thought about her, if they liked her or hated her the only thing, rather the only things that mattered now where Jax and this child. After many hours of socializing and dining, Jax was prepared to make his announcement.

He smiled at Skye and rose from his seat. It seemed as if everyone was waiting for his cue because as soon as he got to his feet the room immediately fell silent. Jax let out a soft laugh, "I, we feel that you've been held in suspense long enough but, I have something else to say first so if you could just bare with me a few more minutes."

Jax turned to Skye's side, taking her hand, she stood up facing Jax. "Skye, you have made me realize what it means to be alive, to be in love and most importantly to be myself and these are all things that I could not accomplish without you"

Tears began to form in Skye's eyes as she looked into Jax's. He pulled a small black box out of his jacket pocket, slowly opening it, he turned the box around to Skye, "I would truly be honoured if you would be my wife"

Jax took the ring out of the box as Skye stood in awe, "Nothing in the world would stop me". Jax slipped the ring on Skye's finger and pulled her closer to him for a kiss. After a few brief moments they broke apart.

Jax smiled as he looked out at the crowd, "Oh, I almost forgot, we had an announcement". He placed his hand over her stomach securely and hers covered his lovingly. "I'm pregnant" Skye said proudly.

After many congratulations and what felt like a million hugs, Skye was exhausted and ready to go. But, they didn't make it out the door without facing an obstacle, and it was none other than Edward.

"Skye, my dear, I am so very delighted with your announcement, now the Quartermaine's will have a true heir".

"Grandfather, my child will be a Jacks and I will personally see to it that you will never ever have anything to do with my child".

"We'll see about that" Edward commented

Skye looked at Edward with rage building in her eyes, "After you faked a stroke and a coma and made it look like all my fault, you actually think I want anything to do with you?"

"You'll change your mind, after that Aussie finds someone else to romance while you're busy giving birth to his child".

Jax stepped in, "You know what Edward, I don't want you here, so I would appreciate it if you would leave the club now or".

"Or what?" Edward challenged

"Or I'll throw you out"

"Well, I've never in all my life.." Edward began

"Leave, Grandfather, now" Skye demanded.

Edward quickly left the club and Skye and Jax said there good byes and were heading out, when Alan and Monica stopped them.

Alan took his daughters hand, "I am so very proud of you Skye"

Skye stepped forward and kissed her father on the cheek, "Thank you, Daddy"

"And Skye, we're here for you, always, if you ever need anything don't hesitate". Monica added, she then gave Skye a hug.

"New beginnings" Skye whispered in Monic a's ear.

"New beginnings" She agreed.
