When I woke back up, Donna was sitting in my room talking on the phone with Mari asleep with her head in Donna's lap. Donna looked at me and hung up the phone. It looked like she was crying.

"What's wrong Donna?" I asked concerned.

"Let me get the doctor. Stel. He can explain everything." Donna said waking up Mari and walking out of the room.

"Donna!" I yelled but she kept walking.

"Mari, what's going on?"

"Let's wait for the doctor." Mari said looking at the floor.

Donna came back with the Doctor five minutes later.

"Hello, Ms. Crow."

"Where are my babies? What's going on?" I asked sitting up.

"Your baby girl is in the nursery we can bring her down now if you like. She is completely healthy she is 5 pounds 8 ounces, and 19 inches long. You also have a baby boy; he is 5 pounds 2 ounces and 18 and a half inches long. He was born with a congenital heart defect. He had a hole in his heart. It is an exceedingly rare disease, but it is hereditary."

"It runs in their father's side of the family. Their uncle died from it at six years old and their grandmother and father have it but are fine. Is he ok doc did you do the surgery?"

"Yes. Your sister signed the paperwork and he's in surgery now. The last update I got everything was going fine. After the surgery, he will have to stay in the NICU for a while just so we can make sure he's going to be okay. He will be, We have some of the best neonatal surgeons on this side of California. I'm going to send the nurse in so you can fill out the paperwork for the birth certificates, and I'll have them bring your little girl." He said as he walked out of the room.

"Stel, we have to call Jax. He needs to know." Donna said when he left the room.

"I'm not telling him. That bitch will not raise my kids."

"At least move closer to home. Hear me out before you freak out. You don't have to move back to Charming just a little closer. We just need to keep you away from Stockton, Oakland, and Lodi." Mari begged.

"Fine but you still have to keep this from everyone. If I ever get to the point that he needs to know. You two are to deny everything."

"If that gets you to move down. I'm fine with it." Mari replied

"Opie would kill me if and when he found out. But I am going to confess my mom knows. I needed someone to talk to. Don't worry you know she hates Opie and the club."

The nurse brought my baby girl in and I cried. She has His eyes and hair. You could tell that she was a teller just looking at her. I definitely can't be seen by anyone who knows the club now.

"Oh my god. She's a teller alright." Mari said

"Yeah, she is. So, what are you going to name her? Oh my god, Stel I'm sorry." Donna said.

"It's fine guys I was thinking the same thing. I've had a few names run through my head. But my favorite name is Annabeth. Her middle name will be Mari after her Aunt Donna and Aunt Mari. I was thinking of Annabeth Mari Teller for her and since I always thought they were girls I didn't have a boy name. I was always told by you know who that tellers don't die easy they die bloody. I want to give him a strong name. After two important people I know. I'm going to name him Johnathan Thomas Teller after his grandpa and uncle."

"Stel Omg that's amazing." Mari said crying

"That's oh my god Stel." Donna said between tears

"I thought it would give him strength."

"That name definitely will." Donna said

"Jt and Tommy would have been honored Stel." Mari said wiping her tears away.

I was in the hospital another day before I was released. I got to take Annabeth home with me. Jt would have to stay a few more weeks. Donna and Mari have been here the last two days. Loving on Annabeth while they could. Donna's phone rang and she left the room.

"WHAT!" Donna yelled.

"What's going on." Me and Mari asked at the same time.

"Opie got arrested for arson." Donna said sliding down the wall to the floor.

"Who has the kids?" Mari asked.

"Mary called Gemma this morning and said Opie never came home. That's how they found out. We have to go. I'm sorry Stel." Donna said

"No go be with your kids. I'll be fine. Keep me updated. Remember not a word to anyone." I said giving them hugs.

After Mari and Donna left. I sat there thinking about my two babies. Leaving was a good idea. It sounds like things are starting to get worse in Charming. Jt got out of the hospital last week. While he was still in the hospital, I had been doing some house hunting. I decided that I was going to move my family to Walnut Grove, California. It was still far enough away that I was comfortable and close enough that Mari and Donna could stop bugging me. Mari ended up having a little boy. She named him after her dad. His full name is Piermont Juan Ortiz. I always call him Perry. Mari told me that Donna had been distant from the club. She says that Donna blames the MC for Opie getting arrested. It wasn't their fault. Mari told me she overheard Juice and he who must not be named talking about it. Kyle, who was the lookout, took off and left Opie there when he heard the sirens. What a pussy. Mari told me during our next weekly call that he got kicked out of the Club and banished from Charming. Annabeth and Jt were growing like weeds. Jt still had to take meds for his heart but was doing amazing. After the kids were old enough, I got a babysitter and went back to school, and got a teaching degree in the Arts. I got a job at the Walnut Grove Elementary School. I loved it. Teaching kids to do something that I had such a great passion for made every day amazing. But I had better nights. Every night that Jt continued to be healthy and Annabeth was healthy was enough for me.
