The caravan of the 3 cars made their way into the TM garage lot safely without any stops or police intercepting them.
Andy jumped out of the SUV, not waiting for anyone. Wanting to just see Abel, she ran in and saw him awake and happy, drinking his bottle in Gemma's arms.
"Hey you, miss me?" She asked Abel as he spit his bottle out of his mouth and started his type of conversing with her. Gemma and Andy both laughed, Gemma instantly handing him over to her as Andy cradled him and went to sit down in a chair. He was dressed in his blue SONS hat and little blue jeans. Andy thought he was the cutest baby ever.
"Welcome home sweetheart." Gemma told her as she sat down next to them, quietly letting the mother and son reunite. Andy looked up and smiled a thank you. She looked around seeing Clay at the bar along with Piney, Bobby and Happy.
All watching her reunion with Abel.
"What do you mean you got it at the baseball game?" She heard Tig yell as he walked in with Juice and Halfsack both still in their Blue Jays hats.
Andy laughed watching all the guys walk in. Jax coming and standing behind her, placing his hands on her shoulders, leaning down to kiss the top of her head. She looked up at him smiling.
"Drea took us to the Rogers Stadium to see a Blue Jays baseball game and we bought them there." Halfsack bragged to Tig as Tig looked like he wanted to punch them both.
Andy raised her shoulders shrugging and Tig turned to face her. "You, never going on another trip without me!" He said pointing to her making her laugh and Jax just shook his head.
"Welcome home honey." Clay said walking up to them and nodding towards the meeting room to Jax. Jax silently agreeing. Clay, Piney, Bobbie and Happy all followed.
Andy looked down at Abel who was still having a conversation with her through his jibberish baby talk and his bubbles. She looked up at Jax not wanting to let him go.
"Bring him." He told her knowing exactly what she was asking. Standing up, she, Jax, Opie, Chibs, Tig, Juice and Halfsack now filed into the room. Halfsack locking the door behind them. Jax led Andy over to his VP seat, letting her sit there with Abel while he stood behind her.
Clay smiled looking at Abel in Jax's seat. "He's taking over for you already. Should we get him a prospects cuts now?" Clay asked Jax as Jax just shook his head no.
"Not yet, lets get him to learn to walk first." He sarcastically said. Clay laughed and hit the gavel, letting this meeting come to order.
"We have a threat, we're not sure what it is yet, we don't know if it's to us as a group, to just Jax and Opie, to just Juice and Halfsack, or to just Andy. But it doesn't matter, we're family and we will deal with it and protect each other as family." Clay stated to the group.
"What happened today?" Clay turned and asked Andy, giving her the floor to speak.
She looked at Juice and Halfsack, Juice nodding his head at her.
She took a breath, looking down at Abel and gave him his bottle.
Then she started this story.
"We were cleaning up, finishing the last of the packing. There was a knock at the door, I walked over to the peep hole to look through it and see who it was. Halfsack was in the kitchen, Juice was in the bathroom. I looked and saw that it was Blackstone, he's the head of the ATF in Canada. Head of Guns and Gangs. When I was on my last undercover mission, he was my superior in charge. He showed up about 2 months ago again for a case that he was working on and I hadn't seen him since. I froze and didn't know what to do, so I stood there. He knocked again, I saw Halfsack and Juice come towards my way and stuck my hand out telling them to stop." She said taking a breath.
"We all stood there waiting for him to do something. Eventually I heard him walk down the hallway, I peaked out the peephole again and saw outside was empty. We walked over to the window and saw him come out the front of the building, he was on his cell phone talking to someone, he got in his car and pulled away."
"Did he make the call before or after he left the building?" Chibs asked.
"After, he walked out. Stopped on the sidewalk pulled out the phone. Hung up before he got in the car." Juice answered as Andy nodded her head.
"Go on." Jax said from behind her.
"I pointed to my bedroom, we all went in there. I told the guys who it was and I pulled out my laptop and got on the airlines website to change our flight, figured us to go before he came back. The guys went to grab all the bags, I changed the flight and checked us in. I called a taxi and we waited for the taxi to show up. Juice and Halfsack took the bags down when it came, they said for me to stay inside and lock the doors behind them everytime they went down. Juice stayed with the cab, Halfsack came back up. We left, hopped in the cab and went to the airport. We pretended like we weren't together there, all going through customs alone, sitting alone at the gate and we sat together but barely talked on the plane."
She stopped, looking down at Abel who was fighting falling asleep, trying to grab his bottle to play with it.
"Then we got off the plane, came to baggage claim, Juice went outside, we got the bags, came out and you all know from there." She said finishing up and looking down at Abel who was now closing his eyes while still drinking his milk.
"So he just showed up at your door, what did he want with you? Opie asked trying to think.
"I don't know Opie, I didn't open the door to ask him." Andy said sarcastically. This day had been very long and stressful, all she wanted to now do is take her family and go home.
"You have to have an idea, think." Opie told her.
"It could be anything, you and Jax had a tail and went to my apartment. May be you guys were caught and he knew this entire time. May be someone saw me, Juice and Halfsack together this week, may be I was caught when I came here and he knew I was in Charming for the entire 3 weeks? The FBI agent who was with Hale could have recognized me. It could be anything Op." She said having no idea.
"May be instead of baseball games and Niagara Falls you all should have stayed in and not been so public." Tig said more in a jealous tone.
"We also went to the theme park, rode all the roller coasters. Was the best day ever." Juice added seriously with smile just wanting to piss Tig off.
"Alright alright." Jax said trying to halt all the tension at the table. "Drea's right, we don't know what happened or why this guy was on her doorstep yet. It could be anything at this point. The good thing is you guys are all back here, you're out of this guys jurisdiction. Drea doesn't work for him anymore." Jax said reasoning with them.
"The only person who could be in trouble with him is me, I was the one who was told about his tail on Jax and Opie and they can't prove I told Jax anything." Drea said.
"Ok, I'll put Unser on this, let him fish around see if this Guns and Gangs has made any contact around here or with the new Feds. Until then, we go along business as usual." Clay stated.
"When they find out Drea ran from it a day early, nobody is going to suspect anything?" Piney asked.
"I was done packing and my dad canceled my plans. No point in me sitting around my apartment doing nothing." Andy stated coming up with that cover story if she got asked by anyone.
"It sounds good enough." Bobby said.
Jax stayed quiet, they won't be able to hide Andy this time. The Feds were going to want to see her, for the fact alone that she was a cop and now living with him.
"Jax?" Clay said in question knowing something was on his mind and he figured it was the same that was on his.
"Feds are going to bring her in." He stated as Andy nodded her head, she figured as much herself.
"For what though? They have no reason." Opie stated.
"They have a reason Op, what ever caused this guy to show up on her doorstep today is reason. When they find out she's gone early without talking to them, they'll probably flag her. Which is why it was smart as hell for them to get out as fast as they did today." Clay told him.
"Whether the Canadian ATF figured something out on their own or whether the Feds here are working with them, they want to talk to her about something and it's not about her decision to move." Jax said frustrated.
This ATF guy is either going to show up wanting to question her or the Feds ID'd her and will want to question her." Clay added.
"First question might be what is her connection to us." Juice said.
"What is her connection to Jax is another one." Tig said.
"We just have to wait it out, see when and who show up. Until then we live life like normal." Clay stated and hit the gavel down. Breaking the meeting up.
An hour later Andy was home and so happy for it.
She brought Abel in the house, taking him straight to his room and putting him down in his crib.
Jax grabbed her duffel bag and her purse from the backseat and brought it in the house dropping it on the floor. One of the guys would drop her suitcases over tomorrow, Andy told them she didn't need anything from them.
Jax kicked off his shoes just sank down on the couch, putting his feet on the coffee table. Deep in thought of what was going on with the Feds and now Andy's ATF. He was scared, he wouldn't say it out loud but if anyone connected her to the dead Federal agent she could end up in jail. Even if they had no proof of his death being deliberate, which they didn't if they thought she took classified information and gave it to him, which is what she did do then they could arrest her for that.
"I wanted your homecoming to be happier, memorable." He said out loud hearing her behind him.
"I'm pretty sure this is memorable." She joked coming to lay down. Putting her head in his lap. She looked up at him and wanted so much to make him feel better, she could tell already he was thinking he was ruining her life and hurting her. She could feel his tension and worry.
"I'm not going anywhere, not jail or anywhere. You're stuck with me so stop looking at me like that." She told him.
"Like what?" He smirked knowing that she could read him so well.
"Like you're feeling guilty. I called you remember? You're the one that was mad at me for doing it."
"That's right." He nodded. "I was the law abiding one." He said making her laugh out loud.
"Yeah you're a boy scout." She said rolling her eyes and he leaned down and kissed her, showing her how much he missed her this past week.
