Asma heard the noise of keys at her front door and left the couch she was sitting at to quickly open the door. Ever since Jax went to Prison, she had no idea of what the SAMCRO boys were doing. Let's not even talk about the Knights or even the Pretty Piston. She was left int he dark, but her guts were telling her that something was off. It didn't take long for the inker to put pieces together and realize that something went wrong. Jessica was MIA for weeks, she didn't reply to her text and the worst that could have been was that Jax had to go to Med Bay in order to save his life. They weren't fully informed of what happened there, but it transpired that he had been into a very bad fight and was sent to isolation. Upon seeing her fiancé, the woman dropped the mug she was holding, onto the floor.

"Bella!"  -He anticipated her reaction. She would have been happy to see him but she would have been upset too and he was right, she was upset.-

"Alex! Alex......" She couldn't believe her ears but it was his voice. The smile she had on her lips quickly faded away and the inker furrowed her brows. "Where the fuck have you been?" Tig tried to shift her mood and opened his arms to welcome her, but she pushed him away. 

"Bella! I've just come home!" -He pointed out, but she shook her head, refusing to even consider his words. It wasn't the fact he went away. It was the fact he didn't even text her back to let her know he was alive.-

"For fuck sale! Where have you been Alex? Where have you.... you ghosted me for weeks and now you have the audacity to come home??" She pushed him and then pulled him towards her for a hug. Alex decided to not play her game. She clearly needed to have him with her, after all.

"I was on a job..." was all the biker would say. But she shook her head.

"It's not enough. I need more." -She needed him to tell her everything, To explain in details why he wasn't home and if his life had been endangered by the « job » he was doing. But Asma was delusional. He wouldn't tell her, not even if she begged him to.

"You won't have shit!" He said, clearing his throat in anticipation of her reaction. She pulled away and looked at him with eyes wide open. Of course, she would not know the truth. It was the way he wanted it, the way Jax And Jess wanted it. To protect Asma she wouldn't know what was truly happening. Not fully anyway. "You signed for this when you proposed! You know you won't get shit from me. And even if /I/ wanted to tell you, I can't. I am not allowed to."

"I know I signed for this but that doesn't make it any easier, dipshit! There is mayhem in the city, you disappear for weeks, Jax is in prison! Did you know that he got out of the med bay and can have visitors again? Does Jess know? Where is Jess??!! She doesn't answer my texts! Where is she?"

"Bella..." He didn't know. She didn't let him know where she was and it became clear to the tattoo artist who screamed and pushed Tig again.

"You don't know? You fucking don't know???! Jess could be dead by now or in danger and you don't know?!" She ran her shaky hands through her thick pink curly mane and started to sob. "It's a nightmare... it's a freaking nightmare... I'm going to lose everyone.." 

"You don't know that." 

Alex felt her anger turn into sadness and fear. She was terrified of losing everyone and he knew that in this line of work, it was most likely to be true. They could die. He could die tomorrow and he was hoping that Jessica knew what she was doing and would get Jax out of prison.  He had to trust her and her plan. Asma was reduced to tears, unable to stop sobbing and it was breaking his heart to see her like that. She was a mess, from the bags under her eyes to the nails she bit from being anxious. He ran his hand through her hair and planted kissed on top of her head. She had been carrying so much stress since Jax was arrested and wasn't able to unload her emotions on anyone. He took it, her violence and fear and tried to help her the best he could.

"Do you think it's going to be alright?" 

"I don't---" She cut him short.

"Lie to me." -He planted a kiss on to of her forehead.-

"Yes. We'll be fine. We'll be fine." But he had no clue whatsoever. It seemed to help her relax and it made him sigh in relief.  She nodded and pulled him into a tight hug.

"Thank you. » She trailed off and rubbed her nose against his chest. «  The Girls and I are alright by the way. We have not been bothered since Jax has been arrested. »

"Good..." His phone started to ring and he rolled his eyes. He didn't even have the time to be home that the gang needed him again. Alex rubbed the woman's back and planted another kiss on her forehead before he pulled away from her. As Asma understood he was about to leave, her voice broke as she asked him.

"Where are you going?"

"I have to go.. I'm sorry Bella." - He watched as she knitted her brows and started to sob. It was unfair and it was breaking her heart. Alex walked back to the front door but she held onto his kutte.-

"Alex! Please....." He watched in front of him, his azure eyes intensely staring at his bike parked in front of her porch. « Alex... let me say a proper goodbye. » She begged again, pulling onto his kutte so he would turn around and look at her. « Let me... » His phone kept ringing and he grabbed it. « Please... »

« I have to... » He took the phone call. « I'll be there in two hours. Just the time to grab a shower and shit. » He hung up and then turned to Asma whose beautiful face was soaked with tears she was still crying. « An hour. We have an hour. »

« It's more than I could wish for. » She said as she cupped both of his cheeks and kissed his lips.
