"Abel gets out of the toaster today." Jax said coming into the kitchen. I smiled in his direction.
"That's great Jax." I said adjusting my braid. "I actually have good news of my own."
"Really? What's that?" he asked.
"I bought a house." I glanced his way, if looks could kill. "Well rented one."
"Why? You can just stay here." Jax said motioning around Gemma and Clay's house.
"Well gee, as much as I love that idea… no." I laughed.
"Come on darlin'." Jax smirked. "It's not that bad."
"Yeah, waking up to your parents having sex is what I look forward to every morning." I stuck my tongue out at him.
"At least show me the place." He said.
"Okay." I sighed. I grabbed my purse and lead Jax out to my car. Jax climbed in the passenger seat and sighed as Nickelback started playing. I laughed, "Old habits die hard."
Ten minutes later we pulled up to a small white house with a lush green yard, and a giant oak tree in the front yard. I parked in the drive way and headed towards the house motioning for Jax to follow. I pulled the keys out of my purse and pushed open the white wooden door. Inside the walls were painted a light green, hard wood floors and a small stair case leading to the loft.
"How many rooms?" Jax asked.
"Three, two down here and on upstairs. Two bathrooms, a good sized living room and a huge kitchen." I smiled. "Even has a pool."
Jax peeked out the window and saw the small in ground pool with glistening clear water. "how much?"
"Seven." I said crossing my arms.
"Seven what?" he asked.
"Seven hundred, my limit was five, but this place is so cute." I shrieked. Jax rolled his eyes and skipped up the stairs into the master bedroom with adjoining bathroom.
"It's all right."Jax said shrugging his shoulders. I smacked him in the arm. "At least it comes with furniture."
"Except the beds and dressers and stuff." I sighed. "Good thing I've got that stuff in storage huh? Start moving today."
"I'll have Half-Sack help you."
"Why not you, or better yet Juice?" I teased. Jax glared at me groaned. "Kidding, about Juice."
By three that afternoon, all my stuff had been moved into the house, still in boxes, but at least it was moved. Jax hauled the bed frame upstairs and into my room. The other two rooms already had the beds assembled but that was pretty much it. I helped Jax slide the box spring and mattress upstairs and throw them on the bed frame. I collapsed on the bed beside Jax.
"Can we take a break?" I groaned rolling over, my leg swinging across his and my hand resting on his chest. My heart fluttered had Jax trailed his fingers down my arm and tangling in my hair.
"Jax." I said barley above a whisper. His eyes locked with mine, I felt like I couldn't breathe. Oh God, I said to myself as his face slowly got closer to mine. I closed my eyes, my lips automatically parting to let out the breath I was holding in. As soft as a feather Jax's lips pressed against mine. Just as quickly as it started it was over. I sighed as his body shot away from mine. His hand nervously ran through his hair.
"I, uh, I'll help you bring in the dresser, then I gotta go. Club business." He said. I nodded confused by what just happened and how he was reacting to it.
Jax brought up my dresser and night stand before quickly leaving without much of a goodbye. I carried boxes up to my room and slowly unpacked them one by one. Nickelback played as I let the boxes of stuff consume me.
I met Gemma at the hospital after my room was put together. I saw Gemma's black Cadillac in the parking lot beside Jax Harley Dyna. I parked on the other side of Jax's motorcycle and walked into the hospital excited to see my little nephew and hold him for the first time.
"How's he doing?" I asked Gemma as I met her in the waiting room.
"He's out of the incubator; I'm ready for him to come home." Gemma smiled. "I'm waiting for Luann so if you want you can go on in."
I hugged her before walking into Abel's room. I pushed open the door and was greeted with Jax's smiling face as Abel let happy screams resting in Jax's arms. I couldn't help but smile at the two.
"Hey Jax." I said cooing at the baby.
"Harley." He nodded. "Do you wanna hold him?"
"Jax, take your time." I said Abel gripping my finger in his small hand. "You're so cute."
"No really, it's kinda making me nervous holding him and all." Jax said holding him out to me. I raised my eyebrows; gently I took Abel out of Jax's arms and held him close to my chest.
"Hey there little guy." I said softly bouncing him in my arms. He giggled and curled into my arms. "You did a good job Jax."
I glanced up at Jax as he watched me closely with his son.
"If you aren't careful I might take him home with me." I joked.
"I'll have to hunt you down if you do." Jax breathed into my ear, I could hear the smirk in his voice as though he was daring me to try kidnapping Abel. Jax reached over my shoulder and rubbed Abel's head.
"Jax, we should talk." I said turning to him.
"Not now, he's asleep." Jax said looking at the small bundle of joy in my arms. I glanced down at Abel, he was indeed asleep, I sighed I nodded.
Gemma came in a few moments later and took Abel from my arms. I have to get to work anyways. I kissed Abel on the cheek and gave Gemma a hug before walking outside with Jax.
"What was that earlier?" I asked walking beside Jax.
"It was a mistake." He said barley looking at me. "I can't go there again, I won't hurt you again."
"Well, at least we both feel the same way." I forced a smile on my face, I knew he was lying; I had to at least try. "I'll see you later."
I climbed into the driver seat of my car and started the engine as I saw Tara walk out of the building and hop on the back of Jax's motorcycle. I was fuming with anger and jealousy. Why would he go back to her of all people?

The Hairy Dog was hectic when I walked through the doors; I rushed behind the bar and pulled on an apron while men were yelling drink orders at me. Rock music pulsed through the crowded bar and helped me pace myself as I filled and refilled drinks.
"Start cuttin' 'em off." Harry said rushing behind me and pulling shot glasses off the counters. "I refuse to give this people alcohol poisoning. I nodded my head quickly and started turning the men down. They looked angry and slowly began to filter out a few stuck around playing pull or darts, or just lagging around. The doors banged open and a few men wearing SOA cuts strutted through the doors, a few I never seen before but one looked awful familiar.
"Hey baby, rounda shots on the house?" the Tacoma Killer asked. I raised my eyebrows at him.
"And why would I do that Happy?" I smiled, for a second he looked confused, then his eyes lit up when he realized it was me.
"Harley Winston, I'll be damned, you look.." he trailed off and pulled me into his arms for a hug. "How's Teller treating you?"
"We aren't together anymore." I said and poured Happy and his friends a shot.
"That's a shame, everyone always thoug-"
"Yeah I know." I said cutting him off and rinsing out some glasses and laying them out to dry. I pulled a few empty beer bottles off the counter and replaced them with new ones.
"Well this here is our newest member, Caleb." He said patting a man with short brown hair on the back. He held his hand out for me to take.
"Harley, but some friends call me Rose." I said taking his hand in my own.
"Well you are more beautiful than any rose." He said. I looked at the ground trying to push back the blush that was rising to my cheeks.
"Easy now, Jax will have your balls." Happy warned.
"Don't worry about Jax." I told Caleb. He smiled a bright, breath taking smile and threw back the shot. Small talk continued my night as the bar slowly began to close and Happy and Caleb left the bar. I quickly counted out and gathered my things to meet Happy and Caleb outside.
"So why are you in Charming?" I asked curiously.
"Club business." Happy said.
"Kind of on the down low." Caleb said winking at me. I smiled at him and slightly blushed, thank God it was dark out.
"Well, I better get home but I'll see you tomorrow night?" I asked pulling my car keys out of my purse.
"Club house?" Happy asked walking with me to the car. I nodded my head and ducked into the car.
"Night Happy." I said as he closed the door for me.
