She'd nearly dropped the house key twice trying to let herself into their apartment. It wasn't home yet but it was the closest she had. Since Jax was there, and the boys were there, it was close enough... which made what she did once she got the door open probably weirder. She opened the door, then pushed it shut, leaning back against it. Tara tipped her head back, and she took one deep breath, then another, then another, not realising that Jax was on the couch, and could absolutely see her having her tiny little meltdown.
She took another deep breath, and then reached for the lock on the door. She pushed it closed without looking at it, and then finally looked around the apartment, and she was torn between talking to Jax, and checking on the boys, until she finally spoke. "Just- Just one minute, I need to check on them." She didn't even say why, but she moved down the hall, to their room, and thank god, they were fine. They were fine and whole. She'd been afraid that somehow, somehow, they would both be laying there, their faces blank. Gone. Like the man outside the hospital. She didn't hear Jax get up, for the way the blood was roaring in her ears as she stared down at their sons who just slept soundly.
