Jax sat in the courtroom as Tara was wheeled in the wheelchair with shackles, looking over at Jax Tara felt remorseful not even knowing if Emma was still alive
"Dr. Tara Knowles didn't I just see you here last year?" The judge asked
Tara dropped her head
"Third degree assault, attempted murder, endangering the welfare of a child and kidnapping? What's the excuse this time?" The judge asked leaning back in his leather chair and crossing his arms
"I was jealous of my ex husband" Tara said quietly
"He's your ex husband for a reason. Did you think you were going to get away with it?" He asked
"Yes I did. Until Jax shot me" Tara said trying to be spiteful
"I would of shot you too if you performed a cesarian on the mother of my child and tried to kidnap him" The judge snorted
"So he's not here to get in trouble?" Tara cried
"Absolutely not. I don't normally side with criminals like your ex husband but this time I do" The judge spoke sternly
"I can't survive in jail I can't even walk the doctor said I may not be able to walk again I want to press charges" Tara demanded
Jax chuckled in the background causing Tara to turn around and look at him
"Ms. Knowles you cut open his fiancée and took her unborn baby out. And ran off with it. Do you really think a jury panel will side with you?" The judge laughed
"It's worth a try, he should rot in jail for the things he's done" Tara said
"Don't push me any further Tara, your already looking at twenty five years do you want life without parole?" The judge said leaning forward
Jax chuckled quietly as the judge looked at Tara sternly and sentenced her
Jax walked into the hospital with a dozen roses for Emma, walking into her room he found her sleeping and Abel wide awake content in the roll away crib
Setting the roses down on the windowsill Jax walked over to Abel
"Hey little man" He whispered picking him up
"You been good for your mommy?" Jax smiled down at him
"I just got him to be quiet and your over there picking him up" Emma said with her eyes still closed
"Well hello to you cranky" Jax chuckled as he walked over and planted a kiss on her lips
"How'd it go?" Emma asked opening her eyes
"Twenty five years" Jax smiled
"Good, hope the bitch dies in there" Emma said trying to sit up, because Tara has used a serrated knife Emma literally had about four hundred stitches just to keep her incision closed. The doctor recommended that she take it extremely easy and no lifting or she could rip them open.

Emma sat on the couch holding Abel, Jax was supposed to be home hours ago, after having Abel four months ago things between Jax and Emma were taking a downward spiral and fast, he was barely home and when he was they would fight constantly.
Emma stood up to put Abel in his crib, tired of waiting for Jax to show his face, just like every single night. Thier wedding was put on hold because Jax suddenly decided he wasn't ready. Emma knew deep down he was sleeping with someone else but she just didn't have the evidence.
His clothes constantly smelled like rancid pussy and he had a few hickeys present on his torso. When he decided to show his face around the house once every few days he would shower and try to have sex with Emma so constantly declined.
After Emma stepped out of the shower she returned to the bedroom to find Jax sitting on the bed with his head in his hands
"What are you doing here?" Emma asked
"I do live here" Jax said not raising his head
"Doesn't seem like it lately, this is the first time I've physically seen you in days" Emma said pulling the towel tighter around her body
"Emma please don't start" Jax said looking at her, that's when Emma saw the gigantic hickey on his neck
Emma walked over to the dresser and pulled out a pair of sweatpants and a shirt
Jax stood up and reached out to her "Why'd you get dressed babe?" Jax asked
Emma swatted his hand away
"Don't touch me. Go back to whoever gave you that fucking shit on your neck" Emma said
"It was an accident" Jax said trying to grab her arm
"That is no accident, what did you fucking fall and your dick landed in her too?" Emma asked
"Em, it's not like that" Jax said
Emma pulled her fist back and punched Jax in the eye, causing him to fall back onto the bed
"Go. The. Fuck. Away" Emma said
Jax stood up "you really just fucking hit me?" Jax asked
"I'm capable of alot worse so do yourself a favor and take the hit and get lost" Emma said
"Emma please it was a misunderstanding" Jax said
Emma turned around and looked at Jax
"Jax, there is no misunderstanding when it comes to cheating. First you swoon me to marry you then YOU back out and then YOU go and start cheating" Emma said pushing Jax's chest with her index finger
"Emma what the fuck, who are you right now?" Jax asked confused as he had never seen Emma act this way
"This is the side I didn't want you to see, see why I said I had an evil past? Because Jax I dont give up what's mine that easily" Emma said
"Babe calm down seriously, I'm sorry for cheating Jesus" Jax said as she pushed him onto the bed
Emma kneeled next to Jax and whispered into his ear
"That was your first mistake" Emma said
Jax looked at her confused, he didn't know what came over her suddenly
"I'm sorry babe please" Jax pleaded
Emma stood up and went to the dresser that held the mirror, looking into the mirror at her self and Jax sitting on the bed she began to cry. Cry hysterically
Jax walked up behind and and wrapped his arms around her, Emma struggled but gave in when she realized that Jax was stronger then she was.
"Babe I'm so sorry" Jax said
"Me too" Emma cried
Jax pulled away and looked at Emma
"What the fuck was that?" Jax asked
Emma looked away from Jax wishing he had never seen that. Because now he's going to want answers
"Sometimes I lose my shit" Emma said
"No Em, that wasn't losing your shit that was I'm gonna burn your house to the ground type shit" Jax said
"Wouldn't be the first time" Emma said
