14.

The next week went the same as the last 8 months. She was still debating on when to go see Jax with Thomas again. She had finally made a decision. She went to go speak to Gemma.

"Hey." she said walking into the office.

"Hi baby."

"I was wondering if it would be okay if I took Thomas to see Jax this weekend?"

"Of course. You are the one that should be there. You and his son."

"I am doing this for Thomas." she tried to say.

"I know baby." Gemma said smiling.

Her and Donna were sitting on the picnic table talking about the trip this weekend to the prison. Gemma had Thomas in the office.

"So what's going on?" Donna asked.

"I don't know Donna. I am so angry at him and yet all I do is think about him. How I miss him. How it felt to have him wrap his arms around me."

"You love him. That's good." Donna said.

"Yeah, I do."

Then as they sat there they heard a female voice.

"Oh give me a break. Are you still trying to get Jax in your pants little girl? Didn't you see enough to know you don't have what it takes to make that man happy"?

Tara looked up and seen the madam Colette standing there. Tara stood up.

"You want some more of me bitch? I will be glad to wipe this parking lot up with you."

"I don't have to fight you I already won the prize." Colette said.

Tara didn't want to fight and she definitely didn't want to stay there. She went to the office and grabbed her son and left.

"You don't even have a clue what you just did. But if I were you I would run as far as you could because when Jax finds out what you just said to the mother of his son, he will kill you." Donna said.

"Yeah, well if she has a baby I can gurantee you it isn't Jax's."

"You would be wrong." Donna said before slamming her fist into Colette's nose.

Gemma had come out when Tara had stormed in and grabbed Thomas. When she heard what this slut said she was happy to see Donna take care of it.

"If I were you I would listen. You better run far."

"Who the hell are you?" Colette asked.

"I'm Jax's mom." Gemma said as she watched the woman pale and turn to walk away.

"Faster." Donna yelled out and laughed when she seen her run to her car.

"Tara, are you okay?" Donna asked as she walked into the apartment and seen her sitting on the couch with Thomas.

"Yeah. Um.. I decided not to go this weekend. I will let Gemma take Thomas though."
"Tara, don't let that slut run you off."

"I'm not. Look all she did was remind me of what was wrong between me and Jax. So please. I don't want to talk about it right now. Can you tell Gemma. If I do she will try to talk to me and I really don't need that right now. Please."

Donna could see that Tara needed to do it this way. So she agreed.

"Thanks Donna." she said and went to place Thomas in his crib.

Donna stared after her and wondered how Jax was going to react.

The next morning Donna called Gemma. She told her what the situation was and Gemma was really sad to hear it. But she did understand how Tara was feeling. "Okay, well I will pick you up then on the way."

"Thanks Gemma, I will be ready at two. It's twelve thirty now, so I will see you soon."

Tara had Thomas ready to go so that Gemma wouldn't have to come in. She just needed some time by herself. Donna went out to the car with Thomas and shook her head at Gemma telling her not to go inside.

When Jax walked into the visitation room he was disappointed. Not that he didn't want to see his mom he was just really hoping it would be Tara and Thomas. As he got closer he realized that his mom had Thomas.

"Is Tara okay?" he asked wondering why she wasn't here.

"She's fine I guess."

"What do you mean you guess?"

She told him what happened the day before. Jax sat there getting angrier and angrier.

"She had actually planned to come up until that. Her and Donna were outside on the picnic table talking about the trip today when the slut pulled up."

"Fuck mom, when will my stupidity stop slapping Tara in the face? Maybe I shouldn't try to get her back. Maybe it's better if I just let her go."

"Jackson Teller I do not want to hear that out of your mouth again. That's what got you into this mess in the first place."

"I just don't want to hurt her anymore mom." he said.

"Then get your head out of your ass and try to make things right. Here take your son." Gemma said as she handed Thomas over to him.

"Hey little man. I promise I will try my best to make you and your momma happy. I love you two so much."
Gemma had never heard her son say that before and smiled. Jax hadn't at first realized what he said then he smiled. Yeah, he loved Tara. He loved her with every breath he took and he was determined to show her when he got out. They enjoyed the visit while it lasted and before his mom left he told his mom to keep an eye on Tara.

"Baby, you know I will. I love her, she's my daughter. I'm just glad you finally woke up to your own feelings."

"Yeah." he said. He kissed her on the cheek and then kissed his sleeping Thomas and watched them leave.

"Did Gemma tell you what Donna did to that little slut?" Ope asked smiling.

"No, what did she do. I only heard what happened with Tara."

"She punched her nose and broke it. Told her to run as far away as she could because when you found out you would kill her."

Jax laughed. It made him feel better to know that Donna realized how much he loved Tara.

"She's right. When I get out she better be gone or she will be a dead slut."

Ope was glad to see the change in his brother.

"Hey, there's something I want to ask you."

"Okay."

"When we get out Donna and I are getting married. I want you to be my best man."

"You know I will Ope."

The both of them lay back on their cots and thought about the women they love.
