This Is...A Happy Home

Thirty Five!

We find Nero in his normal place, and we inform him about what Gemma has done. "Where did she go?" I ask. Nero shrugs, still trying to process everything we told him. "I don't know, I couldn't..." he says, stopping himself with tears in his eyes, "I couldn't talk to her." he finishes. I begin to get a little frustrated with this hide and seek game. "She has to be somewhere, she has done so much damage Nero, you should see the way Abel is." I tell him. Nero gives me a sad look, "And what about Gemma?" he asks wondering what we will do to her. I look at him, giving him a look and he glances down. He turns his attention to Jax, "I get the pain that you're in Jax and the damage that she's caused. It's unbelievable. But children killing their mother. Jax that's a wound that's too deep to heal. And Lexie no offence, but this could make you snap." Nero says, "And I know you both, that's gonna swallow you both up. That's going to destroy you both." he adds as tears fill my eyes. I know he is right, but we have to do what we have to do. "After everything she has done, all the lies and the death. I still love her, she's my mum and that's what hurts most." I say, starting to cry hating that this is how we ended up. Jax is upset too, hugging me to him knowing this is so hard. I snuggle up to him and cry so much, feeling so upset. This is the most difficult thing ever. He strokes my hair, which I feel him do. Nero watches us, he can tell if we kill Gemma then that would kill me inside. 

Jax withdraws from me, "We got to be strong now, okay." he say, knowing we have to put our emotions to the side, and get the job done. I wipe my tears away, "I know. I know. We should go." I say. My phone pings and I look at it to see I have a message from Chibs. "Gemma's in Oregon, I think she went to see grandad." I say, showing him the message. Jax reads it. "Then we go there." he says. We get up from our seats. "Please listen to what I have told you, don't do this." Nero pleads, worried for us. I ignore him and walks out the room, Jax does the same. 

I spot Unser's truck outside of grandad's house, just as we park up outside. I sigh to myself and climb off the Harley. "Guess we have to sort that little problem first." I say. 

Meanwhile, Unser is inside with Gemma, trying to get her to leave when he hears the bikes outside. "Shit, they are here Gem." he says. Gemma doesn't want to leave. She is done with running. "No, it's fine. I have to face them sometime." she says. Unser watches as Jax walks in and I enter behind him. I look at my mother with that empty dark look that Jax is scared of. She notices the dead look I am giving her, and gets chills running down her body. "We need to be alone with our mother," I say, looking at Unser. He shakes his head, not wanting to leave his long term friend. "I can't let that happen. I already called it in to the Oregon state police." Unser lies. Gemma sighs, seeing Unser is trying his best to protect her, "Unser, no you haven't." she says. I am really getting fed up of Unser at this stage. "Get out of here Unser." I say. Unser continues to refuse and goes to take Gemma's hand. "No, get up you're coming with me." he tells her, getting out his gun and pointing it at me. Jax pulls out his gun and points it at Unser. "What happens now son?" he asks wondering if Jax would really kill him, he knows I would in a heartbeat. "This is between us and our mum." I say. Jax keeps his gun pointed at Unser, "Exactly now go." he says. Even with a gun pointed at him, Unser still doesn't budge.

"Haven't we had enough of this, look where we are. What we've all become. This has to end. Here." Unser tells us. I nod my head agreeing with him as tears fill my eyes. "I know. Go home Wayne." I tell him. Unser looks at Gemma, staying put not wanting to leave her. "I can't do that. This is all I've got left." he says. Jax pulls the trigger and shoots Unser. Gemma flinches feeling sad for her friend, not expecting Jax to actually kill him. I glance down at Unser's body, before taking a seat in one of the armchairs. Jax sits in the one opposite me. Gemma remains on the sofa. She looks at us both. 

"I loved Tara very much." she starts to say, she sees the looks we give her, "This is not an excuse, I'm not defending myself, I barely remember what happened that night." she tells us knowing she had been high. I try to keep calm and hear her out. "But it happened. You still killed her. Made us think it was the Chinese, which lead to a string of murders along the line." I say, knowing Bobby died because of the lies. "Yes it did and all the other things because of the lie. I never saw any of that coming. I know there's no apology that can touch the way you are both feeling Jackson and Lexie." she says. I shake my head as she says this, "No, you're right there isn't. There's no apologising for what you have done. None. You did what you did, and it was wrong of you." I say, watching her get up from where she is sitting. "Is it okay if I go into the garden?" she asks. I nod my head as we follow her out in to the garden. 

I notice her go over to the roses. I take my gun and point it at the back of her head. My hands tremble again and I look at Jax, tears falling down my face. Jax looks at me with tears in his eyes. I look at back at Gemma, keeping my heads on my gun and take a deep breath. "You have to do this. You've got no choice. I love you both so much from the bottom of my heart." she says. I hate this so much, I go to put my finger on the trigger, finding it so hard to do. Jax places his hand on my shoulder. "You want me to do it?" he asks. I shake my head. I don't want him to take this moment from me. "No, I have to do it. Can't be weak now can I." I whisper. Jax puts his finger over mine and we pull the trigger together, whilst looking at eachother. I hear Gemma fall to the ground dead. I glance at her body and a massive wave of heartache came over me and I begin to break down crying. Jax also cries hating that this had to happen. I hug him and we cry together before withdrawing, "We need to go, we can't be here." I say. Jax nods, "Okay, lets go." he says. 

We head to our homes.
