Today was my first day of work and to be quite honest, I was very anxious. It's been awhile since I was out the job, so getting back into it was overwhelming. I picked my bag of items I was going to keep in the lockers that they provide everyone at work, to leave in it. I felt as if I got everything I needed, so I drove off to St. Thomas. Luckily, it was about a 15 minute drive from my house, not far at all.

I arrived at the hospital and went to go see Dr. Towell. He introduced me to all the residents I would be working with, as well as the anesthesiologists on duty. After getting to know the hospital, I was told I would be in Labor and Delivery. I went to the lockers to put my stuff away and change into scrubs.

After some minor procedures like giving epidurals and things like that, I went to the on call room. Tara wasn't around since she's in her surgery department and I'm doing my anesthesiologist stuff.

It was 5pm and I headed out the door. As I was walking out, I see Jax heading in.

"Hey doc nice uniform" he said referring to my scrubs.

"Thanks."

"Long day?"

"You have no idea." I kept walking out to my car and saw that it was towed. I forgot to get a parking permit so they towed my car. Shit. I didn't know where anything was or who to call. I ran back inside the hospital to find Jax and ask.

"Hey Jax sorry to ask you a stupid question"

"No need to say sorry. What's up darling?"

"They towed my car, I don't know who I'm supposed to call or where the place is."

"Come on I'll give you a lift."

"But aren't you barely coming in?"

"Don't worry about it" he said reassuring me. I followed him outside to his bike. He handed me his helmet and I hopped on. I obviously had to hug him from the back so that's what I did.

We arrived at a towing facility. It was near the border of Charming, pretty far.

He walked with me towards the entrance where a man would greet us. I explained to him what happened.

"What kind of car?"

"Black benz" after I said that, he looked rather confused. He went to the back and spoke to someone else, then, they both came back.

"I'm sorry ma'am but we haven't picked up any black Benz all day. But I'll call our truck driver incase he has it on his truck. But it should've been here by now if that was case." I sat down really confused while I waited.

"If it's not in the truck-"

"This is the second time they steal my fucking car. Second fucking time. Who would do that to me." I said as I interrupted Jax's sentence.

"It was that dickhead ex of yours." He said.

"Christian? I don't think he can pull out a stunt like that."

"Ever since you moved here, your cars have gotten stolen. Shit like that doesn't happen here." I sat back and thought about it. Could it really be him? Why would be be doing that? The two men came back.

"I'm very sorry ma'am it's not with our driver. I suggest filing a police report as soon as possible." I couldn't believe this. This shit is absurd. I didn't say anything and just walked away with my palm covering my mouth, trying to think of what to do. Jax walked me over to his bike.

"Come on" he said. I put on his helmet and just tried to clear my head.

We arrived at the Teller Morrow shop. I wasn't quite sure what I was doing here but I didn't question it. I hopped out and Jax told me to wait there while he went to go talk to Gemma. After a couple of minutes of waiting Jax told me to go where they were at.

"Hi Mar" Gemma said.

"Hi Gemma."

"Mar my mom's gonna stick around with you for awhile I talk to the club about your car."

"Okay, Thanks." I said. I followed Gemma to her office. We walked in and she closed the door.

"You wanna tell me what the hell you're doing?" She asks angrily.

"What do you mean?"

"With Jax. He's married. I thought I told you to stay clear of him."

"I am what are you talking about?"

"Jax is bringing you to the clubhouse on his bike, going out of his way to help you. He doesn't give a shit about anyone. He won't go out of his way to the club for anyone except family."

"He offered Gemma I didn't ask him." She just gave me a look while she tapped her hand to her side.

"Stay clear from him" she said. What the fuck. I didn't say anything I just looked at her and sat down. Why is my life going downhill so fast?

I didn't want to be in there with her anymore so I stepped out and sat on one of the benches trying to contemplate what's going on. As soon as I start feeling better, I see Tara walk in with her scrubs like me. Fuck.

Gemma starts walking out of her office to talk to her.

"Where the hell is Jax Gemma. He was supposed to pick me and Abel up from St. Thomas." Gemma just looked at me and Tara saw what she did. Tara came storming towards me.

"What the hell are you doing here did Jax bring you?" She asked, very angry.

"Yes he did." I didn't want to go into details.

"I thought I told you to stay away from him"

"I am. I'm just letting him know what's going on in this town." I said. I didn't want any more problems. As soon as I said that, Jax came out of the club house.

"Tara!" He said. He walked over to her.

"Tara I'm sorry but something important came up."

"Yeah I guess your little whore is more important than Abel and I." She said storming out as Jax followed her. I just watched them argue. I felt really really bad.

"See what you've caused" I heard Gemma's voice from behind. I just looked at her. I decided to walk out of there and walk home. I didn't want to be involve with anyone anymore.

As I was walking, I heard a voice scream at me.

"Hey!" I heard. It was my friend with the Mini Cooper. I hopped in and gave her a big hug.

"What are you doing here?!" I asked very enthusiastic. She pointed at the back and I saw her luggage.

"Does that mean I'm finally getting a roommate?" I asked. She nodded her head.

"How did you find me?"

"I didn't. I went to your house and saw you weren't there, so I decided to look around since it's a small town." I felt really relieved. She drove back home and I helped her with all her luggage. I looked at my neighbor's driveway and saw that they were both home already. I looked away as quickly as I can.

"What is it?" Stacy said.

"Nothing. Let's go inside." I said. I wasn't going to get into details just yet. I just wanted to get settled and go to sleep for work tomorrow.
