Walking through the main doors of Thomas, Tara walked up to the front desk." I am here to see the hospital Admissionator, I believe her name is Margaret Murphy." Tara explained as she placed her sun glasses on the top of her head.

The front desk clerk looked up from her computer as she stopped typing." And you are...?" She asked as she raised her brow.

Dr. Tara Knowles and she's expecting me. "

" Ohhh...Your the new surgeon that's transferring from Cleveland, right?"

"Actually, it's Chicago and I am an Neoauteroal Surgeon." Tara corrected her.

" Oh, my bad. For some reason I always thought it Cleveland." The clerk said with a shrug. She then picked up her phone and called Murphy's office.

Margaret was in the middle of going over the reports the last doctor left on her desk, before going home when her office phone was ringing. Margaret sighs softly as she answered." What is it, Kathy?" She asked as she took her glasses off and set them down on her desk as she rubbed her eyes.

" Sorry to bother you, but Dr. Knowles is here to see you"

Margaret looked over at the clock that's hanging on her wall. "It's only 9 a.m. I was expecting her for at least another hour. Thanks Kathy, just send her into my office." Margaret said as hung up. Getting out of her chair, she walked towards her file cabinet to pull out the files she needs for Dr.Knowles.

"Come in." She called out as she sat back down. Looking up once her office door was open, Margaret sat up straight." Good morning Dr. Knowles. Please have a seat." She said nodding her head towards the chair in front of her desk.

" I know, I was supposed to be here in hour. But I have realtor coming over this afternoon, and there's still a lot of cleaning to do. " Tara explained as she sat down.

" Well, I will make this quick. I have gone over your files, and I must say that, I am very impressed with your work. Your file also says you were one of Chicago's top best surgeons, which I am very impressed with because Thomas needs good doctors like you Dr. Knowles."

" Thank you. " Tara said as she nods her head with a friendly smile.

" I also have read your personal file and it says that you left Charming 11 years ago. Can I ask why all of sudden you decided to come back?" Murphy asked as she was just curious.

" Mainly because of the job." Tara answered honestly." Not mention I just couldn't live in Chicago anymore." which is the After everything that happened with Josh. Tara couldn't be there anymore. She was very lucky when St. Thomas called and offered the job.

Murphy nods her head. " Well like I said I am very impressed with your work and I do believe you will do great here. St. Thomas will be very lucky to have you Dr. Knowles."

" Thank you." Tara responded with a nod.

" Will you be able to start first thing tomorrow morning?" Margaret asked as she handed Tara the file." There's a six months old baby girl that's coming in for heart surgery. The surgery starts at 8 a.m.""Margaret explained.

Tara nods her head as looked over her first patients' file." Yeah, I will be here tomorrow morning." Tara said as she closed the file and stood up to grab her purse and placed the strap over her shoulder.

"Great, I will see you tomorrow morning. Have a great day Dr. Knowles." Murphy said as she stood up and shook Tara's hand.

" Thanks, you too." Tara said as she nods her head and walked out of Murphy's office, closing the door behind her. Walking towards the elevators Tara felt her cell vibrating against the back of her jeans pocket. Without checking to see who was calling her she just answered.

"Hello?"

" Hey, I was just calling to see how the interview went." Donna responded.

' It went really well actually." Tara said as she stepped into the elevator doors once they opened." I start first thing tomorrow morning. " She said once she hit the n number one to go down the parking lot.

" Wow, that's quick. Hey wanna come over? Opie is gonna be at the club house all day and the kids don't get out of school in the next two hours." Donna asked.

" Actually, I can't today. I got realtor coming over today."

" Well, why don't we meet up for lunch this weekend? " Donna asked.

" Sounds good, I will call you." After ending her phone call with Donna. Tara slide into the driver's of the cutless. Once Tara closed the car door and got her seat belt on. She turned on the engine and pulled out into traffic heading towards the diner to get coffee on her way home.

Wendy. had just gotten out of the car when she noticed Tara driving away. Wendy started to breathe hard as she could feel her blood starting to boil." What the hell is that bitch doing in Charming?" She asked herself. The last thing Wendy needs right now is for Tara to come between her and Jax. There's no way in hell Wendy is gonna let Tara take Jax away from her. No way no how. Wendy sighs heavily as she walked towards St. Thomas reminding herself that she needs to talk to Gemma right away. Maybe Gemma can keep Jax away from Tara. Wendy thought to herself.


Setting her keys, purse and her coffee on her kitchen table. Tara got started cleaning the house before the realtor shows up. At first Tara never really thought of actually selling her dad's home. Her childhood home. When she was little Tara used to love living in this house. But now she feels it's time to move on and find a place of her own.

Walking into her room. Tara sat down on her bed as she started to look around. Tara has so many memories in this room. Especially the ones with her and Jax. They would spend their high school years in her room. Mostly in her bed naked. Tara closed her eyes for a moment as she starts to remember.

- Flash back-

" My father is gonna be home soon." Tara said softly as she ran her fingertips up and down Jax's chest. They had just spent two days in her bed together and the last thing Tara wants is her father to catch her in bed with her boyfriend. While naked.

" You know that I don't give a shit right? " Jax asked as he raised his brow.

" Yeah, I know but..."

" But, what?" Jax asked with a smirk.

" We've spent two days laying in my bed doing nothing but having sex which of course I have enjoyed it lot. It's just that I haven't got any studying done and once my dad walks through that door. He's gonna ask what have I been doing for the past two days." Tara explained.

" Why do I get the feeling you're kicking me out.

"Tara just shook her head as she massage her fingertips against his beard." I could never kick you out. But I do need to study and with you laying here next to me all naked is very distracting."

Jax grins even wider as he moved over and hover Tara. He leans down as he kisses her deeply and passionately as he pulled her even closer and grips her thighs tightly." Spend the night with me." He said against her lips." Tonight? At your place?"

" Yeah."

" What about Gemma and Clay?"

" There's gonna be a party at the club house tonight, so they probably won't be home until some time tomorrow."

Tara thought about it for a moment as she gently bit her bottom lip." Well, since I don't wanna spend my Saturday night with my father and his poker buddies. Yeah, I will spend the night with you."

" Yeah?"Jax asked with a grin.

" Yeah." Tara responded with a huge smile on her face.

The knock coming from her front door brought Tara back to reality. Tara sighs deeply as she stood up and walked out of her room. But before she went any further she took one more look in her room as she now realizes every memory she had with Jax in her room are memories that she needs to put behind her.
