Tig went back into the clubhouse announcing that Gen was home. "I guess there's no chance of me sneaking in and getting a shower, first?"
"You look beautiful love." She looked at him and laughed.
"I seriously doubt that!" She started to walk in the club but he stopped her pulling her in his arms and kissing her.
"Don't doubt it!" He took her hand and lead her into the club and the waiting family. She gave hugs to everyone, and smiled. She found Tara standing at the bar.
"Do you have any extra clothes here?"
"In Jax's room? Why?"
"I need a shower and change of clothes. Twenty minutes?"
"I'll keep them distracted!"
"Thanks!"
She walked back to Jax's room and got Tara's clothes and laid them on the bed, she went into his bathroom and took a shower, washing her hair. She stepped out of the shower and wrapped the towel around her body. She walked into the bedroom and Fillip was sitting on the bed waiting for her.
Her breathe caught in her throat, he looked up at her. He looked up at her, she walked close to him, he pulled her into his arms. "You're beautiful love!" He started to kiss her, he undid her towel. She closed her eyes and felt his hands on her, she pulled away, wrapping the towel around her.
"Fillip, wait...I..."
"Lass, what is it?" He turned her around to look in her eyes, he cupped her face.
"I love you Fillip...I never stopped!
"I love you too." She leaned into his embrace, he wrapped his arms around her. "You're freezing love, get dressed." They walked back into the main part of the clubhouse. Jax picked her up and swung her around in his arms.
"Sis! Are you okay?" He sat her down and looked her over. "You are way too skinny, mom needs to fatten you up." She punched him in the gut and laughed when he doubled over. "Tell me how you got away?"
She sat down at a table. "He beat me for punishment, I made him think we still had a relationship afterward. He moved me to Tacoma, I don't know if you were getting close to finding me or not. I couldn't stand to have him touch me, kissing me, he kept me chained up to the bed. He came in i wrapped the chain around his neck and pulled it tight, choking him. Pulling him to the floor, right before he was about to die, I told him that I loved Fillip. Then I pulled the gun from his waist band of his pants and shot him. I took the key and unlocked my cuff and I ran."
She looked down at the floor when she was done, she felt a hand on her shoulder and looked up to see Fillip at her side. Clay stood up and looked at Gen, he looked at the club members.
"My little girl is as tough as nails!"
She got up and walked to the bar, Bobby sat plate of food in front of her. "Eat up sweet girl, you're way too thin!"
"Thank you!" She took her plate and went outside to the picnic tables. She just needed a minute of fresh air, she put her head in her hands.
"How you doing Baby?" Gemma sat down beside her.
"Mom." She started crying and laid her head on Gemma's shoulder.
"What's all this about baby?"
"What if Fillip doesn't want to be with me? I mean Patrick didn't rape me, but he touched me..."
"You look at me! Fillip Telford is crazy in love with you! It won't matter!"
She picked at her food, not really wanting to eat. Gemma got up and went into the clubhouse, Gen got up and walked away from the table. She walked away from the patio. She climbed the ladder to the roof of the club and laid back to look at the stars. The exhaustion from the day over took her and she fell asleep, she was curled up in a ball. She heard her name being called from far away, she struggled to open her eyes. She sat up when she heard several panicked voices calling her name. Every single light in the compound was on, the usual pounding music of the clubhouse was off.
Son of a bitch, she was in trouble. She slowly climbed down the ladder and walked around the corner, she plowed into Flillip.
"Christ love! You scared the shit out of me. Where the hell have you been. You've been missing for three hours!"
"I went up on the roof, I fell asleep..."
He pulled her into his arms and held her. "I've got her!" He walked her to the front of the building,he kept his arm firmly around her waist. "I'm not letting you out of my sight!" He whispered.
"I'm taking her home." He walked her over to his motorcycle, he climbed on. He handed her his helmet and she climbed on behind him, wrapping her arms around him. He took off for his house, he parked his bike. He climbed off and helped her off, they walked into the house together. He pulled her into his arms and kissed her.
"I love you Gen. I want to be with you, but if you're not ready, I can wait."
"I love you Fillip. I want to be with you, it's been so long..."
He picked her up in his arms and carried her to his bedroom and gently laid her on his bed. He started taking off her clothes, and kissing every inch of her. He stepped away from her and pulled off his clothes and crawled into bed with her. "Are you sure Lass?"
"Make love to me Fillip."

She woke up in his arms, he pulled her closer to him. "Good morning, love" She rolled over to her stomach and looked into his eyes and smiled at him.
"Good morning!"
He touched her back, "Tell me about this scar on you back."
"I just want to forget it." She tried to get up and get away. He pulled her back down on top of him, putting his hands in her hair, pulling her face down to look in her eyes.
"Tell me Lass."
"He whipped me with his belt, the buckle cut me. It was punishment."
"Punishment? For what?"
She closed her eyes and a tear escaped. "Please Fillip..."
"Tell me love."
She rolled over and sat up, she couldn't look at him and tell him. "For loving you, for being with you, for getting pregnant." She whispered. She heard him swear under his breathe. He pulled her into his arms, running his hands in her hair, pulling her face to his.
"God, I'm sorry!"
"Fillip, I don't regret it! Not one minute of it! He was a sick bastard! It isn't your fault." She laid in his arms for a while longer, falling asleep. She woke up a couple of hours later.
"I need to go shopping, I have no clothes."
He rolled over and looked at her. "I don't have a problem with that. You'll have to stay in the house, in my bed!"
"Fillip Telford!" She laughed as he pulled her to him again and started to make love to her. It was late morning before they got up, she pulled on a pair of his boxers and a t-shirt and followed him into the kitchen.
"Lass, you aren't going to get fed, if you insist on dressing like that!" She slapped at his hands.
"You have to feed me!" He fixed her breakfast and made sure she ate all of it.
"You really are skin and bones Lass! I need to fatten you up a bit!"
They showered together, he was drying her off when the doorbell rang. He leaned down to kiss her, the doorbell rang again. He cursed under his breathe dried off quickly, got dressed and went to answer the door. She got dressed and started to follow him out. Her smile quickly left her face when she saw his wife standing in the living room, she turned around and went back into the bedroom.
"What are you doing here Fiona?"
"What the hell are these?" She asked throwing papers at him.
"Divorce papers."
"Why? After all this time?"
"Because it's time to end this marriage! It's been over for years. I'm ready to move on." She looked at him with hurt in her eyes, she tried to kiss him. He pushed her away. She signed the papers and threw them at him, she walked out the door.
He came back into the bedroom looking for her, he pushed her back onto the bed and kissed her. He saw some emotion in her eyes. "Is everything okay love?"
"It's fine." She kissed him back and pushed him away from her. "I really need to go buy some clothes. I'm going to call mom to go with me!"
She picked up his phone and called her mom. She picked her up twenty minutes later and they were gone all day.

Chibs headed to TM, he went to find Jax and Clay. He pulled them into the office he needed to talk to them.
"What's on your mind brother?" Jax asked.
Clay sat down in an office chair. "Several weeks ago I sent Fiona divorce papers, she showed up today and signed them."
"It's about damn time." Clay said.
"Holy shit!" Jax looked at Chibs.
"I love Gen with all my heart. I was wondering if I could have her hand in marriage?"
