Summary-Lucky looses control after finding out the truth but with Jason around Elizabeth feels she will be alright. Liason all the way

Time overlapped within the sight before him. After she had been reunited with their son, Elizabeth had become her normal maternal self again. She was although relieved to have the infant in her arms once again; he doubted she would let either Cameron or Jake out of her sight until they were old enough to take care of themselves.

Cam was obviously happy to have his baby brother home and Jason was happy that he had made the best choice for his son to be raised in a safe environment. He still couldn't help the tug in his heart at the sight of his son with Elizabeth and Cam smiling with excitement. He was only a baby but Jason could see by the way the boy acted he was growing closer to the man who was raising him. Jason slipped silently from the brush and went back to the penthouse with only Jake, Elizabeth, and Cameron in his mind.

After the loss of trust between Jason and Sam they had split up on certain terms as to no revealing secrets about the others lives. As far as Jason knew, Sam had gone back to the city and she was happy about it. Though her career was on excellent terms, Amelia was still out to get her. Sam was prepared; after all, she and her mother had come up with a plan to make Amelia Joffee understand exactly what her father had done to make Samantha McCall/Angela Monroe shoot him.

Jason had been left alone and his trial date was set for the next day and he was nervous. He needed someone besides Carly and Sonny to be their for supporting him. He knew the chances of him getting off without anything was highly unlikely. He knew what the evidence was and he was in a lot of trouble if someone figured it out that it was him who had done it. He did it for Skye and he daughter and he wouldn't have changed a thing but he couldn't stand the fact that helping a family member could have destroyed him.

"You know it's not nice to sneak up on people or even look at them from a distance." The sweet voice of Elizabeth Spencer that Jason had come to enjoy over the years, more lately as he watched their son grow at her side.

"I'm sorry Elizabeth I won't…" At Elizabeth scowl Jason quickly shut his mouth and noticed the two boys. Cam clutching the stroller Jake was now sleeping in. Jason smiled down at the brothers and waved at Cam who for a four year old was a very clean kid.

"I meant you should have come by." Elizabeth said laughing and sitting down with Cam on her lap. She thought back to the night of the blackout and smiled at the idea of he son knowing what she and Jason and done to create their son on that very couch. She could imagine if her son found out he would scrunch up his face and jump off the couch with a glare at his mother.

The little whimpers now coming from the stroller took Elizabeth out of her reverie and without thinking she picked Jake up and handed him to his father. Jason took the small boy carefully as Elizabeth went searching for Jake's pacifier which he always needed when he woke up. Jason stifled a laugh as one he found the pacifier in the base of the stroller and two Jake started playing with his fingers.

After finding the pacifier Elizabeth stated void of all emotion "I'm telling Lucky the truth." Jason was engrossed in his son's antics that he didn't hear the statement that had just floated out of Elizabeth's mouth. It had completely caught him off guard and all he could do was look at his son attempting to squeeze his fingers off.

After the statement registered in his mind Jason thought he was going to choke because of the shock. He put the small child back in his stroller and signaled Cam to keep an eye on him while Elizabeth to where his pool table was and he began to discuss the situation.

"Elizabeth if this is because of me please don't do it. I love Jake, he is my son but I agreed and I still agree that he is safer with you. I don't want him in danger anymore then you do and…"

"Jason, yes I am doing this partially because you will make a great father for Jake but, I realized my marriage is a lie and though I knew I kept it from both him and you I am still in love with you." She whispered the last part but Jason heard it and all he wanted to do was kiss her but with everything he wanted to make sure she wasn't just saying because of stress or something.

"I'm doing it tonight but the small problem would I don't know where I'll go once I tell him." Elizabeth had just gotten it out when Jason jumped at the chance.

"Move in." Elizabeth was about to say something when Jason took her out of the kids eyesight and kissed her. Not rushed and powered with fury or pain, but smooth, connected and powered by ease and affection. Elizabeth had almost forgotten how good of a kisser Jason was, the way he had placed his lips on to hers passion coursing through their veins.

What separated them were the wails coming from Jake as Cam played with his pacifier. "Cameron, give that back to your brother." Elizabeth yelled as she walked out taking hold of the infant and trying to calm down his crying. After five minutes she gave up, handing the baby over to his daddy. As soon as he reached Jason arms he stopped crying and began to play with Jason's fingers again.

"Jason can you watch the boys while I…" she couldn't finish what she was saying and Jason just nodded leaning in beside her ear and saying.

"Yeah and tomorrow I'll have the guys go get all of your stuff from the house." Elizabeth nodded into his cheek pecked him on his lips and left he sons with the one person she could always count on.

Jason had found Cam's hidden snacks and given him a light one that Elizabeth had at the top of bag and he had made a bottle for Jake around five when the boy began to get fussy. Cam was now watching Chuggin' Charlie's Mighty Adventure while Jason was in the kitchen watching the small boy laugh and dance around to it. Jason couldn't help the smile that was on his face watching Cam play around to a movie and watching Jake clench and unclench his little fists as he slept soundly in his stroller.

"Jason," Cam said walking into the kitchen and standing by Jason looking at him.

"What is it Cameron?" Jason said trying to keep himself from laughing. The way the four year old looked at him with an attempt at scaring him.

"Do you like my mommy?" the little boy's statement wasn't a surprise and it was understandable but that kid was good at being blunt.

"Yes I do like your mommy, why?" Jason said trying to once again to keep himself from smiling as the small child attempted to interrogate him in his own home.

"Daddy said to keep and eye on mommy and her friends because he thinks mommy is hiding something from him." The joke was over now and Jason wasn't happy at the fact that Lucky was having Elizabeth's own son snitch and spy on her.

"When did your daddy tell you to do this?" Jason was interested now and Cam didn't know why Jason was interested but he answered because he trusted the man more then he trusted his own father.

"Yesterday, after he saw mommy crying again." He said it was a secret so you can't tell anyone." Cam said walking back out into the living room as Jason pulled out his phone and dialed Elizabeth's cell.

"You've reached Liz, if I know you leave me a message." Jason couldn't help the grin after hearing that now he knew where Cam got the bluntness tone of his from. He is too much like his mom.

"Elizabeth it's me, Cameron just told me something you might want to know get back as soon as you…" as he was about to finish the slamming of his door and scream came from the living room.

"Jason, what are Elizabeth's boys doing in your place?" Carly asked looking at the frightened four years old and the screaming infant.

"Cam why don't you go into the kitchen for a minute, while I talk to Carly ok buddy?" Jason said and the boy ran out of the room aiming straight for the kitchen. Jason picked Jake up and began to calm him down while gently rocking him. Jason glared hard at Carly and said "what is it that couldn't wait Carly?" He looked at her now understanding why she was so freaked; all she could do was smile as she watched Jason continue to rock the baby completely unaware that he was his son.

"You are so great with kids Jason." Carly smiled at him as she noticed that Jake had fallen back asleep. "I'm sorry I woke him, I just wanted to tell you that you might want to check on Elizabeth. I may not like the muffin face but I think Lucky is back on pills. Jason he knows something and he might hurt her. Where is she?" Carly asked looking around the penthouse.

"She went to tell Lucky she's leaving." Jason said putting Jake back in his stroller and talking to Carly. "I need you to keep an eye on these two while I go check on her. If what you say is true she could be hurt. I can't let anything happen to her." He said running out the door and that was when Carly looked down at Jake wide awake with the piercing ice blue eyes that Carly knew so well and that was when she put everything together.

"Can I come out now?" Carly smiled at the innocence of the small four year old boy. He was so calm and collected. His head was peaking out of the door asking nervously to just enter.
