A POUNDING IN SHAY'S HEAD woke her up the next morning, a groan left her dry throat as she rubbed the sleep from her eyes.

"Jesus Christ." She groaned while placing a hand to her throbbing head. She must of drank way more last night than she guessed to wake up feeling like such shit.

Shay let out a deep breath before slowly sitting up in the small uncomfortable bed in one of the clubhouses dorms. Yeah, she definitely drank way too much last night. Shay hated sleeping in the clubhouse and only did when it was absolutely necessary.

The blue eyed brunette looked around the room, trying to figure out who's dorm she was in, but nothing looked familiar to her. She figured it was just an extra currently unoccupied one.

Shay checked her phone quickly — a few texts from Ben before sending a quick text to Leela's babysitter.

The Miller woman exited the small room, making her way towards the front of the SAMCRO clubhouse. A passed out Tig on the pool table with two nearly naked women greeted her eyes as she walked into the room.

Shay shook her head before walking towards the bar where she saw Gemma ordering a few hung over crow eaters to clean the place up.

"Morning, baby." Gemma smirked at Shay as she sat down at one of the bar stools, the younger brunette placing her head down on top of the bar.

"Morning, Gem." Shay mumbled.

It had been so long since Shay had a hangover this bad and she understood why even after having Leela, why she didn't go to SAMCRO's parties anymore.

"Here." Gemma said while placing a glass of water in front of the brunette. "Guessing it was a good night?" The older woman teased.

"Thank you." Shay said gratefully as she gulped the cool water down. "I guess." Shay shrugged. "Last thing I remember was taking shots with Natalie and I think dancing with Bobby." A groan left her mouth as flashes of her dancing to Elvis with Bobby filled her mind.

A laugh left Gemma's throat at Shay's words. Gemma had already heard from Clay that Shay made Bobby dance with her. The President of SAMCRO said it was a sight to be seen , two drunks dancing to Elvis while everyone cheered them on.

"From what I heard you practically demanded Bobby dance with you." Gemma laughed.

"That's embarrassing." Shay muttered.

Now Shay wasn't embarrassed because she danced with Bobby, she loved the older man like an uncle, but the fact that she demanded him to dance with her was embarrassing. Shay knew how demanding she could be without alcohol in her system.

"All the guys loved it." Gemma assured the younger brunette with a wave of her hand.

"I bet they did." Shay rolled her eyes. "I've gotta go get Leela." She added, drinking down the last of her water.

"Okay baby." Gemma said placing a kiss on Shay's cheek. "Give my granddaughter a kiss for me." She added.

"See you later, Gem." Shay said before walking out of the clubhouse and into the bright sun, a groan immediately escaping her lips.

SHAY LAID IN THE WARM BATH LATER THAT EVENING, a sigh of content leaving her mouth as she felt her headache slowly fade away.

After picking up Leela earlier and doing some much needed errands all she wanted to do now was relax and that meant a warm bath.

A smile took over Shay's face as she heard Ben over the baby monitor trying to soothe a crying Leela. It had been a few weeks since he stayed the night at Shay's — the couple cooling off a little since that night at St Thomas hospital, but Ben had called asking if he could come over. He missed Leela and Shay and wanted to see his two favorite girls as he put it.

"Hey, babe." Ben said as he walked into the bathroom, rocking a now quiet Leela in his arms.

"Yeah?" Shay answered, opening her eyes and smiling at the sight of Ben and Leela.

Ben's eyes roamed Shay's naked body for a moment before looking into her blue eyes, a smirk on her face let him know she knew exactly what he looking at.

"I ordered some food for us." He finally spoke. "I'm gonna go put Lee to bed." He added, taking one last look at Shay's naked body before walking out of the bathroom.

Shay let out a small laugh as she watch Ben walk away. She found it cute that no matter how many times Ben had seen her naked that he still looked at her like it was the first time.

A sigh left Shay's mouth before she stood up from the now cool bath, she stepped out of the tub and wrapped her body in a large towel before draining the water. Her headache was almost completely gone by now and she knew whatever greasy food Ben had ordered would only help even more.

Shay was thankful for Ben. Especially on nights like tonight.

▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁

SHAYS BEDROOM WAS QUIET EXCEPT FOR BEN'S SHALLOW BREATHING. Her insomnia was once again ruining a night of sleep.

The brunette scratched the middle of her forehead, letting out a deep sigh before removing Ben's arm from around her waist. Ben was a deep sleeper and it made Shay jealous most of the time.

The brunette slowly slipped out of her room, grabbing her phone with her and made her way towards the living room. She couldn't stand laying in bed, tossing and turning. Shay would rather watch tv or anything else really besides that.

Shay sat down on the couch and turned on the tv, flipped through the channels before finally settling on some horror movie.

A sigh passed through her lips as she ran a hand through her hair and clicked on Jax's name in her phone.

"Hello?"

Shay rolled her eyes as Tara's voice entered her ear. Of course he'd be with her.

"Oh, I'm sorry I thought I called Jax's phone."  Shay said with sarcasm dripping from her words.

"He's busy." Tara replied her tone sounding bored of Shay.

"Of course he is. Well, tell him I called even though I'm sure you won't."  Shay said before quickly hanging up the phone before Tara could say anything else.

Shay cuddled up into the couch and closed her eyes, hoping sleep would come soon even if it was only for a couple of hours.
