"I've missed all of you guys so much!"

"We've missed you too." Happy said as he put an arm around her shoulders and kissed her temple. "Why don't we go inside, see the rest of the guys, have a drink, and you can tell me all about Boston, and I'll tell you about what you've missed here."

"Sounds good." She said, looking up at him. "I've missed you so much Hap."

"I've missed you too kid. Now let's go inside." As they walked in, she smelt the familiar scent that she had missed so much. 'It's so great to be home' she thought to herself, grinning.


"Oh my Lord. Is that little Jessie I see?"

"Hi Piney," Jessica walked over to him and he pulled her into a hug. "Miss me much?"

"Of course I missed you." He squeezed her tightly. "I haven't seen you since you were just a little runt!"

"I was 18 the last time you saw me, Old Man. I wasn't that young!" He chuckled as she pulled away to glare at him.

"Whoa there little one," he said. "You have to admit that you acted like a little runt, though. Am I right Clay?"

She turned around to see 'Big Bad' Clay standing there with his arms crossed over his chest, Jax by his side. "What is it? A family reunion or something?" She asked.

Clay just glared at Jessica, looking very serious. Then she saw the sides of his mouth turn up into a smirk. "Well, we all heard you were comin. Thought I'd bring some of the Charming guys up here with me to see you."

"Oh yeah? Who else is here?" She asked, starting to get a nervous pit in her stomach. She tried to look past Clay to see who else was out in the garage, but she couldn't see anyone over the bright sunlight.

"Oh. Chibs.. Bobby.. Opie.. Um Tig." When he got to Tig, he barely whispered it.

"Whoa whoa whoa. You brought Tig up here with you?"

"Yeah. He misses you, you know," Jax said, looking at her.

Turning around to walk to the dorms she said, "I don't care if that ass hole misses me. I don't want to see that piece of shit." She practically yelled that last part.

"Piece of shit ay?"

Jessica stopped dead in her tracks. Slowly she turned around to see the person that was one of the reasons for her leaving 8 years ago. He just looked at her. The same Goddamn look he gave her when she left. 'I guess he hasn't changed' she thought. "What do you want?"

"I want to say 'hi' to an old friend. Is there something wrong with that?"

She just looked at him and said, "Yes. There is something wrong with that. And if you'll excuse me, I'm going to take a shower." And with that, she left them all standing there while she walked over to the dorms.

Jessica walked to the last door on the right. She opened the door slowly, just in case someone was in there. 'Just as I left it' she thought as she shut the door and sat down on the bed. She heard a knock at the door. "I don't want to see you Tig!" She yelled, before she saw Happy come in the room.

"Calm down," he said as he sat beside her. "You mind telling me what that was about?"

"Yes, but I know I'm not getting out of this."

"Right you are. Now explain."

She explained to him that she never wanted to see Tig again because of what he did to her 8 years ago. She told him about how he broke her heart and that she doesn't think that she will ever forgive him for that. She started to undress and went to the bathroom to get in the shower. As she got in, she heard Happy come in and sit on the toilet. "What more do you want to know Happy?"

"Do you still love me?"

She froze when she heard that familiar voice. "Why are you asking me that Alex, and why the hell are you in my bathroom while I'm in the shower?"

"I just want to know. Do you still love me?"

"Tig, I will always love you, but as a friend. I can't deal with what you put me though again."

"Alright. That's all I needed to hear."

The bathroom door slammed shut and Jessica just slumped over and sat in the bathtub with the water running over her sore body from the long flight. After a couple of minutes of just sitting there, she finished washing her dark, brown hair and tan skin. She got out and wrapped a blue towel with little white skulls on it around her body. She walked out to her room and started to get dressed. She got her bra and underwear on and was about to get her shorts on when Kozik bursted through the door.

"Hey Jessica… Oh! I am so sorry!" He looked away quickly and just held out her suitcases. "I was just wondering where you want these."

"It's ok Kozik. Just put them over by my bed."

"Um. Alright." He tried not to look at her, but she could see from the mirror that he took a peak at her. She turned around and looked at him right when he peaked. His face turned a bright red, and he just backed up towards the door. "I should go now. I'll see you when you get out there. Sorry… Again." Then he scurried out of the door. She just laughed and finished getting dressed.

As she's sitting on her bed, looking at a magazine she left, Chibs bursted through the door. "God! Doesn't anyone knock anymore?"

"Sorry Jess, but Tig jus got in ta a fight wit Kozik. You should come out 'ere." Then he ran back out to the garage. She followed quickly behind him. She saw Tig and Kozik throwing punches at each other. She went over to try to stop them, but Happy puts out his arm to stop her.

"Don't. They need this," he said.

"What do you mean they need this? They're beating each other up Hap. What am I missing here?" Happy took her hand and led her into the clubhouse. He sat her down at the bar and told her all about how, ever since Tig and Kozik got into a fight about 5 years ago, they hate each other. He said that no one really knows the reason that they fought, or why they hate each other, but they are pretty sure it's over a chick. Jessica couldn't help but think how stupid those two were being. They're practically killing each other over such a little, stupid thing.

She walked out with Happy just in time to see Tig knock Kozik on his ass. 'This is the only chance I have to stop them' she thought as she ran over to them. She called Chibs over to take care of Kozik, and she grabbed Tig's arm and pulled him towards the clubhouse. She dragged him over to her room and sat him down on her bed. "What the fuck was that?"

"Oh you know. Me and Kozy were just havin a little fun darlin."

"A little fun? Are you out of your damn mind? You could have killed him!" After Jess yelled at him, she walked over to her dresser and grabbed her first aid kit that was sitting on top of it. She went over to Tig and he pulled back immediately when she touched a deep cut on his left cheek. "Oh I'm sorry. Does that hurt you?" She said sarcastically.

"Yeah it hurts! I gotta admit though, the kid has a nasty left hook." He just stared at her while she cleaned up the cuts on his face. "Can I ask you a question?"

"Depends."

"Why are you doing this?"

"Doing what?" She asked, even though she already knew what he was talking about.

"This." He motioned to his face and the first aid kit. "Why are you helping me after all I've done to you?"

"I'm helping you because even though I hate your guts right now, you are still family, and family takes care of each other," she said as she put a piece of gauze with tape on his cheek. He just stayed silent as she finished up with his face and hands.

"Thanks Jess," he said as he walked out of the room.

"You're welcome Tiggy." At this point she was so exhausted, so she fell back on her bed, and just as her head hit the pillow, she was out cold.
