"What is wrong?" Jax asked Half-sac. "You look like your mind is a million miles away."

Kip smiled hoping that his true emotions wouldn't show. Gemma had given him a note an hour earlier, and this time it wasn't a grocery list. Clay called time then and he scrambled out from under the car he and Jax had been working on. What greeted Half-sack though was a vat of motor oil as the guys rushed him with it.

Before he could react they poured it all over him. "That is just our way of saying congratulations on your raise." Juice said with a smile and then Clay came out of the office.

"Hey Prospect," he called out. "You need to clean up your mess."

Kip quickly went to work doing that and then he hit the showers in the clubhouse, he was staying in one of the rooms like Jax. After getting a shower he got in his truck and headed over to see what Gemma wanted. As he pulled up to the curb in front of the address Gemma's car was coming around the corner. He waited till she pulled into the driveway and went to the door before letting himself out of the truck.

"It's open," he heard her call out after knocking on the door. "Why didn't you just walk in," she asked after he stepped into the kitchen where she was, "I saw you in the truck anyway."

Kip shrugged his shoulders. "I don't know, maybe in case there were nosey neighbors." He gave as his answer. "Like the one across the street."

"That would be Ms Gamble," Gemma said with a smile. "She wants to know about everything that is happening on this street, and it seems particularly this house."

Gemma pulled out a stool then and patted it. "Now let me give you proper thanks for the other night."

At that same time

Tara was heading down the hall in the hospital when she ran into Jax. "You come to see Abel?" She asked and he nodded.

"Among other things," he answered to which she smiled.

"Okay in that case let me finish my rounds it won't take long, go ahead, Becky will take care of you."

He pulled her to him and looked around before giving her a kiss. "Remind me to take care of you later on also."

She pulled away and he watched her go before continuing to the nursery. Tara turned the corner and a doctor was coming out of an office. She also noticed he didn't lock up, and knew his assistant had left twenty minutes earlier. As the doctor turned the corner at the end of the hall Tara slid into his office and quietly closed the door behind her.

While the nurse was placing Abel in Jax's arms Tara went to work. She had seen Gemma go into the office an hour earlier and knew it wasn't about Abel; his doctor wasn't the same one she was in the office of. Ten minutes later and she was joining Jax with a smile.

Back at Gemma's

Kip and Gemma was setting on the sofa, or he was with her head in his lap. "Did I tell you it looked like your arms were made to carry a baby?" She asked and involuntarily he smiled.

"It's something to think about," he said. "After all any man would want to be a father."

"Some might be and don't know it though." She said almost as if thinking aloud and then she looked up at him. "I found out why I haven't been feeling well lately."

He was caressing her head as he looked down. "So you took my advice," he said and she nodded.

"Want to know what he said?"

"Was it something that is being passed around?" He asked.

"You could say that," Gemma answered and then she sat up and looked at him. "He said I am pregnant."

The color began to drain from Kip's face and she began to wonder if she should have told him differently. "Does Clay know?" He asked and Gemma laughed.

"Why should he," she said while looking at him. "Clay is not the father."

"Shit," Kip muttered then and looked to see Gemma smiling.

"But don't worry about him," she said. "I am working on that part of this equation."

She put her arm around him then and pulled his head down to her shoulder. "Cheer up; I thought you would be happy."

"Ecstatic," he said in an almost sarcastic tone that he hoped she didn't catch. "It's just that I am given that news and then I can't help but see my life before my eyes also."

Gemma let out a soft chuckle as she combed his hair back off his forehead. "Baby I said don't worry about it and I mean it. I don't think Clay will be a problem much longer anyway." Kip pulled back and gave her a look. "It's just a feeling," she went on, "that is all."

Meanwhile at Tara's house

"Thanks Jax for bringing me by here, I wanted to fix you something to eat without having the rest of the guys looking like Vultures." Jax couldn't help but smile then, they were in the living room after eating.

"Truth-be-known I do get tired of eating at the clubhouse, so no problem." He replied and picked his glass of tea up from the coffee table, and saw the way she looked. "Looks like you have something on your mind."

"Not really," she replied and noticed that his glass was empty. "Let me refill that for you."

Before he could respond she came up from where she had been setting in the corner of the sofa and was headed for the kitchen. He couldn't help but admire the view, she had changed after getting home, and she was wearing tight jeans and a shirt that didn't quite come down all the way in the back. His mind drifted back to a time when she got her tattoo.

He took her to the place it was down in Redlands a town just east of Los Angeles. Didn't even know where they were going till they got there, just followed her directions. They had spent the day at Disneyland and she wanted to leave after they ate that afternoon. She didn't even ask if it was alright for her to get the bird, it was to be a surprise for him later that night. It was her way of wanting to show him her commitment to him, he just thought of it at the time as a wild idea.

They ended up staying overnight there in town because he had made arrangements while waiting on her for some work himself. That was when he got the reaper on his back, it ended up taking two days, but she didn't mind as long as they were together and Gemma wasn't around to give her hell. Everyone sure was surprised though when he showed them his back, the tattoo shop in Redlands started getting business hand over foot then.

"What was that?" He asked after realizing she had said something.

"Oh I was just wondering something." She replied and then she walked over from where she had been leaning against the wall. "But it's not important right now."

'I think a talk with Gemma is in order first.' She thought with a smile while taking a seat on Jax's lap.

At that same time in Gemma's house

Somebody was setting in another person's lap Kip was cradled in her arms, her hand caressing the back of his head while his mouth was sending the right commands to her sexual outlets through her breast.

"Are you sure this is alright" Kip asked a minute later after pulling away from her bare naked breast, and Gemma smiled.

"What can you do, get me pregnant again."

With a shrug of his shoulders he went back to work and soon she was picking him up herself like an infant child and headed for the hall.
