Silence.
That's all there is when we arrive at Jax's. Who speaking of, has also just arrived at his own place. "Good to see you came on time." I say, getting out the car. The boys are fast asleep in the back seat. It's eeriely quiet, but the lights on means someone has to be inside. I get Chibs to stay in the car with the boys, whilst me and Jax go to walk inside. "It's quiet. Too quiet." I say having a feeling something isn't right about this situation. We enter the house, and the first thing I notice is blood on the floor. "Shit." I say, getting my gun out and walk in to the kitchen. Tara is on the floor, dead. "Damn, seems like someone got here before us." I say feeling a bit pissed off about that. Jax gets upset not expecting to see her dead on his kitchen floor. He wanted her dead yes, but if anything he wanted me to do it so he didn't have to see the end result. I can understand why he will be feeling like this, since he has loved her since he was sixteen.
Jax holds Tara in his arms as he cries. I run my hand through my hair and place my gun down on the table. I glance around the kitchen seeing the state it is in. Plates smashed and blood everywhere. Jax doesn't say anything, he is in a state of shock. Chibs pokes his head in the doorway and is shocked at what he sees. "I wonder who did this." he says, making me slightly jump. To be truthful I did not expect him to be in the house. "I need you to go back to the car. Take the boys to ours okay." I say, before noticing Sheriff Roosevelt's dead body on the floor as well. "Yeah I will." Chibs says, going to do that. I make my way over to Jax, the glass crunching beneath my feet. I bend down so I can place my hand on his shoulder. "You need to let her go." I say seeing he is heartbroken. "I want to know who killed her." he cries. That's the question also on my mind at the minute. I mean it was ok for me to kill her because the club voted on it. But for someone else to swoop in and take that kill from me is a big no no. "I know you do and we will find out. I promise. But right now we have to call for the coroner and the crime team to come and get her ok." I say. Jax nods his head and lays Tara down gently, still in shock about how brutal her death has been.
"You have to know that I did try to kill her before she came back here." I say wanting him to know this. "Right ok, I understand that. But who else would?" he asks not minding that I tried to kill her, since I had every right. "I don't know but when we find them we're going to kill them. They took away the one person I wanted to kill." I say not too happy about this. I step outside the house to make the necessary phone calls.
Later that evening I stay with Jax whilst Chibs has the kids. I grab Jax a beer and hand it to him. "I'm going to clean the mess in the kitchen now that the police have all the things they need." I say, "Do you need anything else?" I ask. Jax shakes his head and takes a swig of his beer. I smile slightly and go to start cleaning the kitchen. "You heard from mum?" I ask. Jax shakes his head again, "No I haven't." he says. I check my phone incase of any missed phone calls, or unread texts from her. Nothing. "That's odd, normally she would be round here in a flash to check on you." I say confused about this sudden disappearance from her. I shove my phone back in my pocket. "I know." Jax says not thinking anything of it. I can tell he doesn't seem to be that bothered, however I can't stop thinking about why Gemma wouldn't have come round yet. I continue to clean the kitchen.
Unknown to us, Gemma is currently with Juice in his flat. "What's your plan here Gem?" he asks, pacing back and forth around the room. "I don't know." Gemma says still shaken up about the whole thing. "Jax and Lexie must be so confused. I mean what was going through your head?" Juice asks wanting to make sense of Gemma's actions. "Because of what she did to Lexie." she admits to him. "I guess that is fair enough. But, you have to face them sooner or later Gem, otherwise they will get sus. You don't need to tell them anything, just act normal." he tells her. Gemma nods, taking her phone out of her pocket and rings me.
I hear my phone ringing and I take it out my kutte pocket to answer it. I notice the caller is my mum. Finally. Maybe I can get some answers. "Hey, where are you?" I ask. Gemma tries to think of a good enough excuse. "I'm sorry, I got stuck in traffic." she lies, convicingly. I believe her thinking that makes sense. "Right okay, did you hear about Tara?" I ask her, wondering if the news got to her. "No. What happened?" she asks playing dumb about her knowledge. I sigh seeing that Jax didn't send her a text or anything. "She's dead mum. I found her in Oregon, tried to kill her and she ran off back to Charming. I followed her, walked in to Jax's house, saw him in the kitchen holding her in his arms. I didn't even get a chance to kill her, someone had already got to her before me. I am beyond pissed." I explain. Gemma listens hearing all of this. She hates the fact that I am angry. "That's really bad." she says acting shocked by all this, like she didn't expect it in the slightest. "Yeah I know, Jax is heartbroken. He just wants to find out who this person is who killed Tara. See with me, he wouldn't have minded, but because someone else went for her. He is angry." I say. Gemma begins to second guess her actions, she knows what it means when her kids are angry. Blood is spilled. "He needs us mum." I tell her. A heart string is pulled for Gemma hating that her son needs her, but she is the reason why he needs her. "Okay, I will be right round." she says, hanging up.
