A/N: Trigger warning for this chapter. Season 2 let's go!
A few weeks after Donna's death it almost felt as if things had gone back to normal. JT went to the doctors with Gemma and Abel, for Abel's checkup and to check JT's throat. The doctor sprayed a numbing spray down her throat then stuck a light and camera down there before having her go get another MRI done. The doctor said her throat looked fine but they would know more when they got the MRI results back.
"How'd it go?" Tara asked when JT went to meet up with Gemma and the baby
"They did an MRI but they said everything looked fine"
"That's great"
"Well if you discount the fact that I sound like a four-pack a day smoker than yeah, it's great"
"You don't sound like a four-pack a day smoker. Your voice is just kind of rough. Some guys find that sexy"
"What do I look like worrying about if a guy thinks my voice is sexy or not?"
"Whose voice is sexy?" inquired Gemma, coming into the room with Abel
"Mine apparently" answered JT
"Really doc? You swing for teenage girls?"
"I was just trying to make her feel better"
JT laughed "Yeah, you tried and you suck"
Tara shrugged "By the way, your father wants me to ask you about your birthday"
"Your birthday? When's that coming up?" Gemma asked
"It already happened. I just didn't say anything" JT told her
"What? Why not?"
"Because it was two weeks after Donna died. Ope was gone, so's Bobby and it just didn't feel right. Besides, I never celebrated my birthday before, why start now?"
"Because you're with us now. We do celebrate birthdays around here. We're throwing you a party young lady"
JT rolled her eyes "Thanks a lot doc"
"Don't thank me, you talk to your father"
"But you had to bring it up now and not privately, so I blame you"
"What teenage girl is against having a birthday party?"
"Me. I never had them before, they're just a waste of time"
"Well you'll be wasting your time then because we're having a party and you are coming" Gemma declared
"Yes ma'am" JT groaned
They said goodbye to Tara and left the hospital, seeing the chief waiting outside
"Wayne?" Gemma questioned
"Gemma. JT" he greeted with a smile "You guys doing alright? The little guy doing ok?"
"Yeah. Got to beef him up a little. How about you?"
"Right as rain. This is just a follow up"
"Where are you at with it?"
"BCGs are keeping it contained in my bladder"
JT winced
"Guess that's good"
"Yeah"
"You waiting on Della?"
"She ain't a fan of hospitals. Hale's picking me up"
"Well we'll wait with you"
"Yeah" piped in JT
They sat down next to him and Abel began to fuss and cry. JT rocked him with her foot and he calmed down
"JT, I'm glad you guys are doing ok"
"Thanks, chief"
"I think Jax is going to be a real good daddy to you both"
"We'll see about that"
"I'll make sure of that," said Gemma
"No doubt" replied Unser
Gemma lit up a joint and handed it to Unser
"It's for my heart condition," she told him
He scoffed and took it from her "Miracle drug"
They passed it between them for a while before Hale showed up to get Unser. After he left, they decided to head back to the clubhouse.
When they got back to the clubhouse, JT followed Gemma inside but as soon as she and Clay started kissing JT decided it was time to go.
"Hey, I'm gonna head out to the garage for a while," she told them
"We need to talk about your party," Gemma told her
"What party?" asked Clay
"Your darling granddaughter neglected to tell us that it was her birthday over a week ago. So I'm going to be throwing her a party" answered Gemma
"Why didn't you say anything? We could use a celebration. Your first birthday with us"
"I never celebrated my birthday before and without Ope and Bobby it didn't feel right" JT explained
Clay frowned
"Well, we're going to fix that. We'll do the party next week. Invite everybody"
"Whatever you want Gem. I'm gonna go"
JT left to work on cars for the rest of the day, only stopping when it began to get late and people started arriving for Bobby's party.
The party had just begun, everyone had arrived and all they were doing is waiting on Bobby. JT stuck by Gemma toward the office with Abel since she didn't really know anybody and didn't want to bother any of the guys.
"So how many people am I making food for?" Gemma asked
"I don't know, the club, Destiny, little Jude, Jayme, Ray, Lucky, Sam, and Drew. If any of them come" JT answered
"Keeping it kind of small aren't you?"
"It's not like I have a lot of friends. Besides, the club will take up a lot of space"
"I suppose that's true. These guys will come to anything involving you"
"There you go. Just please, don't go overboard"
"What is it you like to say? I don't do anything in moderation"
"Jesus Christ, I'm in for it aren't I?"
Gemma just smirked at her
JT was going to go and get a beer when she spotted a silver Mercedes roll into the lot
"Who the hell is that?" she inquired
"I don't know"
They watched as several men got out of the car and approached Clay. The man handed Clay a box and a few of the guys moved closer to him, ready to protect their president. They exchanged words and Tig moved closer, his hand on his gun. When they saw his hand on his gun the girls moved outside, closer to the altercation, but not close enough to hear what was going on. The guys turned around and one of them ran straight into JT, the contact making her skin crawl,
"Sorry, ma'am," he said before going around her
JT rubbed her arm to try and get it to stop crawling and moved forward with Gemma to the guys.
"Who the hell's that?" JT asked Clay
"A friend of Darby's. Nothing to worry about"
"I wouldn't be so sure"
"What you know them or something?"
"I know their kind. My old man used to deal with them a lot. Besides, that guy creeped me out"
"You got nothing to worry about kid. You're with us now"
"Yeah. Sure"
"Hey, what did we promise you?"
"That no one would ever hurt me again"
"Exactly and we're gonna keep that promise"
She hugged him "Thanks Clay"
"Any time princess"
"Come on baby. Let's get your brother home" said Gemma
"You guys not staying for Bobby?" Clay questioned
"No, we're gonna take Abel home, then JT's going to come home with me tonight"
"Ok. Drive careful"
They kissed again and then Gemma and JT left for her caddy.
Back at the house, JT worked on some of her homework while Gemma tried to put Abel to sleep, Tara coming in the door not too long after.
"Hey doc," JT said, coming into the room
"Hey JT" replied Tara
JT sipped her beer while Gemma got up and put Abel in his crib, the three women looking over him with love in their eyes.
"You on the pill?" Gemma suddenly asked
JT choked on her drink
"Just wondering. You got that look" she continued
"The aching empty womb look?" asked Tara
"Something like that"
Gemma walked out of the room and JT followed her, grabbing her jean jacket
"You think I'm using Jax to get knocked up?" Tara inquired
Gemma turned "No. Jesus, I hope not"
"If you're going to trap someone make sure they got money" JT piped in
"Where are you two on this? Me and Jax?"
"I put up with you. You're good to my brother. My dad loves you so I deal with you" said JT
"What do you care what I think?" sneered Gemma
"Jax cares"
"You really want my advice?"
Tara nodded
"Total disclosure"
"What do you mean?"
"It's the only way it works between you and him. You're too smart. Too...too neurotic to live in the vague. He needs to tell you everything. No truth, no pussy. You draw the line"
"I really don't need to hear this" JT groaned
"I'm not sure I want to know," said Tara
"Then this will never last" stated Gemma
Gemma and JT moved toward the door, JT opened it but closed it again when Tara spoke
"Did John Teller tell you everything?" she asked Gemma
Gemma turned around and sighed "You love the man. You learn to love the club. If you can do that, then there's no truth you can't handle" she then stepped forward and kissed Tara, "Goodnight"
Gemma and JT were stopped at a light when a car comes rolling up behind them, blaring its horn. JT had flashbacks to that night with Donna, seeing her dead on the steering wheel, while Gemma grabbed for her gun. A pretty, young, blonde girl came running out of the van screaming for help
"Help please! Oh my God, help me please!" she screamed. She got to Gemma's window and in a panic, she told the women, "My baby swallowed something, he's choking. Please help me!"
"All right," Gemma said, putting the gun down
She and JT got out of the car and followed the girl, JT staying behind them.
"What did he swallow?" Gemma asked
"A bottle cap or something" the girl answered
They got to the car and Gemma peered inside
"What the hell?" she heard Gemma say
The girl then whipped out a blackjack and hit Gemma with it, knocking her out. She then turned to JT and chased her as JT ran away, eventually catching up and knocking her out as well.
When JT finally came around she was tied with her arms above her head to a chain-link fence across from Gemma, who was still unconscious. After a little while, Gemma began to wake up. She looked at JT and let out a breath,
"Jude," she said tearily
"It's ok, Gemma. I'm right here, it's ok" JT replied
"Where are we?"
"I don't know" she heard the sound of approaching footsteps, "Shhh, someones coming"
They looked over and saw three men in masks walking over to them.
"What do you want?" Gemma screamed "You know who I am? Do you know what I can do to you? Take off the mask you goddamn piece of shit!" she launched her foot forward and kicked one of the men in the crotch
"Gemma don't," said JT
She kicked him again, this time in the face. One of the other men punched her in the face and went to JT ripping off her shirt and taking down her pants. Another man did the same to Gemma, the whole time she was screaming,
"No! No! Judas, No!" she screamed
JT remained silent, knowing what was coming and that there was nothing she could do to stop it
"Gemma! Gemma!" JT yelled
They each raped her, one by one before moving on to Gemma, forcing JT to watch as they turned her around and each raped her, except for the third man. When he went to take his turn he started talking
"I'm sorry ma'am. We're almost done," he said
"Plea-please" Gemma begged
"We need you two to pass on a message to your old man. Tell him to stop selling guns to niggers and wetbacks, or we find you and we do this again"
JT recognized his voice as the man who ran into her earlier that night
"Leave her alone! You hear me! Leave her alone you rat son of a bitch!" JT screamed, trying to get the attention away from Gemma
The man looked at JT then turned back to Gemma, continuing to rape her while the other to men attacked JT once again. Once the man who spoke was done with Gemma, he went back to JT and raped her again. The three men took two more turns on Gemma and JT before leaving, letting them down and tossing a blanket at them. JT let Gemma wrap herself in the blanket and pass out, while she put her clothes back on and waited for Gemma to wake up so they could find a way out of there and back home.
