Tinsley, Willow, and Gemma all headed back to Gemma's house. Tinsley's mind was racing. Would Gemma be able to convince Clay to tell the truth? The three of them sat down in the living room. They watched tv for awhile. Gemma called them crow eaters and told them to bring Abel to her house. When Gemma walked out onto the back patio talking on the phone, Willow saw her opportunity to ask Tinsley some questions.

"What the fuck is going on?" Asked Willow.

"You know all that I know. I know they deal guns but I have no idea who they get them from." Said Tinsley.

"I don't know if I can do this Tins." Said Willow.

"Do you love him?" Asked Tinsley

"With my whole heart" said Willow.

"Then that's all you need. This is the like Kip wants and he wants you in it. Your tough as nails Willow. If I can accept this life, you can too." Said Tinsley.

"But what happens when something bad happens to us? It's already happened to you. It's already happened to Gemma." Said Willow.

"I'm going to tell you the same thing my nana used told me... bad things happen to people regardless of the company they keep. Find the people that make you happy and hold onto them for fear life. When it's our time to go, we will go." Said Tinsley.

"But your nana couldn't have meant that you should hang around people who deal guns and have people kidnapping their loved one" said Willow.

"No, I'm sure she didn't. But she did say to find the people you love and hold on tight. I love each and everyone of these guys Willow. I love Jax so much that it hurts sometimes. I can't picture a life without him. I could get in a car and get killed in a crash tomorrow. I could stop at a gas station and end up shot because someone was robbing it. When it's our time to go, it's not going to matter how it happens." Said Tinsley.

"I know. I need to talk to Kip about all of this. I know he should get his patch in about a month. I love him so much Tinsley." Said Willow.

"I know you do. And I'm glad you found a guy that loves you and and doesn't use you for his own personal gain. Kip is a great guy. He works hard which is more than I could say for Josh." Said Tinsley.

"No doubt. Like I said, I need to process all this. I need to get my head straight." Said Willow.

"Ok. Just know if you need to talk I'm here" said Tinsley.

"I'm gonna head home. Please tell Gemma for me?" Asked Tinsley.

"No problem. Text me when you get home" said Tinsley.

Willow called her an Uber and walked out of Gemma's house when she got thr notification that he was parked outside. Tinsley sat back on the couch and watched some more tv. She wasn't really paying attention to it because she was worried about Jax. They were just at Charming PD so it wasn't like there were in the county jail where they had enemies. The babies were kicking around. She thought about all that Unser had told them this afternoon. She had to believe that Jax and Clay would be clear if this shit. She didn't want either of them to go to jail.

Gemma walked back in from outside. Tinsley could smell the sweet scent of pot on her. If she wasn't pregnant, she would consider aiming herself just to calm her nerves. She really wanted a cigarette. She hadn't had one in over three days. This was a horrible time to quit smoke. She could sure use the burn of her menthol to help calm her nerves. But, it was best for the babies that she didn't smoke.

"Where's Willow?" Asked Gemma.

"She went home" said Tinsley.

"She could have stayed." Said Gemma.

"I told her that. I think she's in information overload that the moment. She's having a hard time with the pregnancy and processing all the info. She loves Half Sack but she doesn't know how she feels about the things Half Sack is involved in." Said Tinsley.

"Only she can decide if she wants to be part of this life. If she loves the guy, she will learn to love the club" said Gemma.

"I think she likes the club just fine. It's just the criminal aspect of it all I think." Said Tinsley.

"Well if she doesn't think she can accept it, she needs to go on and tell Half Sack she's out. That boy has stars in his eyes. I'm expecting him to propose any day now" said Gemma.

"Yea me too" said Tinsley.

Gemma went into the kitchen and grabbed her and Tinsley a bottle of water a piece. Tinsley cracked the top on hers and took a big pull.

"What's going to happen now Gemma?" Asked Tinsley

"We need to get in touch with the guys. I called Wayne while I was outside and she told me that ATF are still hold them at Charming PD but the aren't allowing anyone to visit them. They won't even let Wayne down there because they think he's working for them." Said gemma.

"He kinda is ain't he?" Asked Tinsley.

"Wayne and Clay have had an understanding for sometime now. Wayne moves black market electronics with Clay's help and the guys get a small cut of his profits." Said gemma.

"So basically, he helps them stay out of trouble so they won't tell anyone about his black market dealing?" Asked Tinsley.

"Pretty much." Said gemma.

The two of them fell into silence until the door bell rang. Gemma grabbed her 9mm from the table beside the door before looking to see who it was. When she saw it was just one of the crow eaters with Abel, she put it back on the table.

Gemma took Abel into the living room and sat him in Tinsley lap. Tinsley didn't known how much she needed to hold him until Gemma put him in her lap. She snuggled him into her chest. She rubbed his head. She kissed his cheek.

"Ma-ma" said Abel.

Tinsley began to cry. If they couldn't figure out how to get Jax and the guys out of this, she was worried that Abel and the babies would know their dad. Kids need their dad.

"What are we going to do gemma?" Asked Tinsley.

"I'm going to get locked up so I can talk to them" said Gemma all matter a fact like.

"What? Gemma, no." Said Tinsley.

"It's the only way. I need to get locked up so that I can get into the room with cells." Said Gemma.

"And how exactly are you going to be locked up?" Asked Tinsley.

"Wayne is going to bring me on a fake assault charge." Said gemma.

"And when is that happening" said Tinsley

Just then, there was a knock at the door.

"Now" said Gemma.

Gemma walked to the door and opened it. Sure enough, it was Wayne and his female deputy.

"Gemma Teller-Morrow, your under arrest for the assault of Megan Moses. You need to come with me" said the female deputy.

Gemma turned around so that the female deputy could handcuff her. She gave Tinsley a smile and winked at her. Tinsley walked into the kitchen just as Gemma was about to walked out.

"Don't worry Gemma. I'll get this sorted out." Said Tinsley.

"I know you will" said Gemma.

And with that, the female deputy walked Gemma to the cruiser leaving Unser inside the house.

"She fill your in?" Whispered Unser.

"Yea. I'll be down in a few minutes" said Tinsley.

"Give it about an hour. That will give her time to talk to the guys and make it look like the woman decided to drop the charges." Said Unser.

"Ok. Thanks for this by the way" said Tinsley.

"No problem sweetheart" said Unser.

With that, Unser turned and walked out of the house. Tinsley stood there holding Abel
