I got the idea while watching the episode "Baby Love" in season one and saw how great a father Jarod was to little Michael. Let me know what you think!
Chapter 1
Jarod and Mackenzie were taking the twins for a walk through Central Park. His thoughts went back to a year and a half ago when he married Mackenzie Anderson, the lovely brown-haired, brown-eyed woman whom he had met when he was a lawyer in New York. He was prosecuting a man who had murdered a janitor for knowing too much. When his day at the courthouse ended, he saw Mackenzie walking down the street. They started talking and it was love at first sight for both of them. They dated for three months and when Jarod was certain that the Centre was nowhere around, he dropped down to one knee and proposed. Mackenzie said yes and they set a wedding date. They were married June 25, 2002. Andrew Joshua and Marie Elizabeth were born May 20, 2003 and were now two months old. It was one of the happiest days of his life. The Centre had left him alone for a year and a half, so he was certain that they had finally given up their search. He was now able to relax without having to worry about what his next move would have to be. Mackenzie looked at him.
"What're you thinking about, Jarod?" she asked.
"About the day we were married and the day our children were born." Jarod replied.
"Ah. Those were two wonderful days, weren't they?" Mackenzie asked.
"Yes, they were, my love. Remember the day we met?" Jarod asked.
"How could I forget? You had left the courthouse and I was on my way home when we ran into each other and just started talking and talking and we just fell in love." Mackenzie replied.
"Yes. Looks like Andrew's getting ready to wake up." Jarod said. The couple stopped long enough for Jarod to pick up their son. Then they continued on their walk. A few hours later they headed home for the day.
Once Andrew and Marie were in bed for the night, Jarod and Mackenzie sat down and watched some television for about half an hour and then they turned it off and went to bed for the night.
"I'm just glad that the Centre hasn't found out where I am. I don't know what I would do if something happened to my family." He thought as he fell asleep.
