This is for my favorite couple, Jake and Liz. I don't like the way the writers have put Elizabeth into a corner and I truly feel that she would never have gone this long not telling the truth even if she lost Jason to Sam. I am going to have her tell the truth when Jake was brought back home with Lucky, Laura and Luke. I think that she would have taken this as a sign to let everyone know the truth especially since she got her one greatest wish. I hope you like it. I do not own any of the characters on GH they belong to ABC.
When Lucky brought home Jake to his mother, it changed everything for Elizabeth. She had missed her son more than anyone including Jason. She knew that she was wrong for not telling Jake that he was really Jason and she was scared to tell him the truth but knew she had to do it. Jake looked so much like his father and even with the plastic surgery you could still tell that they were related somehow.
She knew that she needed to call Nik to give him the heads up on what she was going to do. She decided to text him because she didn't want him to talk her out of it. "Nik, my son Jake is back with us. I can't believe that Lucky was able to find him and that your grandmother has had him all these years. I feel that Jake (Jason) needs to know who he really is and I pray that he will forgive me. I hope you understand what I am trying to do and I feel terrible that I have been lying all this time." Liz ended her text and concentrated on getting to know her long lost son again.
Jake (Jason) came home shortly after Lucky had left Elizabeth's house. She looked at him and she started to cry. "I have been given the greatest gift that a mother could have but at the same time I have been keeping a mother from the same gift. I know that you think I am crazy but our son, Jake is back from the dead. He was being kept on the island with Helena. Helena held you hostage too and I have been keeping the biggest secret away from you that I could ever have kept. Jake Doe you are really Jason Quartermaine or Jason Morgan. It depends on how you feel about it. I found out at the Nurses' Ball and wanted to tell you but then I saw how happy Patrick and Sam were and I didn't want anyone to get hurt. I have been fooling myself into thinking that what I was doing was for the best but I know I was wrong. I just hope you can forgive me." Liz then left and went upstairs. She knew that he would leave her and she didn't want to see that.
Jake (Jason) went up the stairs to talk to Elizabeth to try to make some sense into what she was saying. "You know I love you. I want you to know that I am upset about being lied to but I think I can understand it. You need to trust in me more and I think that is what hurts more than the fact that you knew who I was and that I wanted to know if I had any family. Now, I find out that I am Jason Morgan Quartermaine and that I am married not to Hayden but to Sam Morgan. I am also finding out that I have two sons and a mother that has truly missed me. Please tell me why you did it and not because you didn't want anyone hurt." Elizabeth looked at Jason and realized that she had it all within her hands and just lost it.
"I want you to know that I love you Jake or Jason, it doesn't matter to me. I have loved you for so long and I have been telling you that I am broken and that I am not good. The main reason why I didn't tell is because I wanted to take a chance that you wanted me for me and that no one else mattered. I know I was wrong but I have been pushed aside for so long by so many people that I felt that I could love you like no one else. Carly was always trying to get into the middle of our business and you working for Sonny was something that also got between us. The danger that you were in all the time because of being Sonny's enforcer was one of our main reasons to break up. When I was pregnant with Jake, I asked you to let Lucky raise him because your life was too dangerous. Then there was Sam. She thought that she was perfect for you and that I was just in the way all the time. She watched our son get kidnapped and was happy about it because she thought she was even with me because of her not being able to have a baby. I know how selfish this all sounds but that is how I feel. The only thing that truly gets me is the fact that I let Monica think that you were still gone. I should not have done what I did and I am sorry for that." Jason looked at Elizabeth and knew that she was telling the truth. He still didn't remember who he was but knew that the two of them had been hurting each other for a long time. He felt safe and loved by Elizabeth and now he knew why. He also felt a connection with Carly and how they became so close so fast. The only thing bugging him was Sam. He felt a friendship with her but that was it. He didn't have any feeling like they were meant to be or anything like that. How could he feel something so strong with Elizabeth and not with Sam?
"I guess I need to tell everyone about me being Jason. I will leave out the part of you knowing. It will not do anyone any good to know that. I love you and I want us to work this out. I will be back in a little while. Don't worry about anything. It will all work out the way it should." Jason got the keys to Elizabeth's SUV and decided his first stop was to his mother's house. He drove to the estate and Alice let him in.
Jason walked into the family room where his mother and aunt were arguing. Michael was standing there caught in the middle of another argument. He saw Jason and asked him if he needed something to drink. "I just need some water, thanks Michael." He then looked at his mother and knew that she was in for a big shock. He looked at the pictures of the family and realized how many were gone and not coming back.
"Monica, I have come here to tell you that I now know who I am. I am Jason Quartermaine. Elizabeth got her greatest wish today when Lucky brought Jake home from Greece. Helena held him there for four years. With this news I got the news about who I am. I believe that when Helena was brought back from the dead, so was I. I was used as her secret weapon and now that the implant is gone, there was no reason to keep my identity hidden. I wish that I could remember anything from that time but there are glimpses and feelings that I have around certain people and you are one of the ones I connected with and now I know the reason for that. Michael, you have told me so many stories of your Uncle Jason and now I find out that I am him. You have meant a lot to me and so has your mother. I guess that is the reason that we have connected so quickly. Your father on the other hand, well he will be shocked but I don't think your mother will be. Don't tell her until I get a chance to see her today and tell her myself." Monica was so happy that she ran over to her son and hugged and cried all over him.
"Later this week, I will bring Jake over here to see you all. I know he will be happy to see more family." Jake hugged everyone and left. His next stop was the Metro-Court to tell Carly. He got there and was walking in when Carly was about to walk out.
"I am meeting Sonny for supper and I am running late. Is this important, Jake?" Jason looked at one of his best friends and laughed.
"I think that you will be very happy and then you can tell Sonny. I am not ready to see him yet because I don't want to upset him more than he already is with me." Jason and Carly went over to one of the couches in the lobby to talk.
"The best way for me to tell you this is to say it. I found out today, who I am. I am Jason Quartermaine. I am your best friend from a long time ago. When I met you and Elizabeth, I felt a connection to the two of you that I haven't felt with anyone else. Michael has been like a son to me and now I know why. Lucky, brought back Jake from Greece today and I found out the truth about myself today. I am grateful but I am not sure what to say to Sam. She is my wife but I have no feelings for her in that way at all. I don't know what I am going to do or say when I see her."
"Luckily you have me. I can call her and have her meet you at Kelly's. That way you will be in a public place and you don't have to worry about anything else." Jason thanked Carly and left the Metro-Court for Kelly's.
"Elizabeth, I have just finished up telling Monica, Michael and Carly that I am Jason. Carly is going to call Sam and have her meet me at Kelly's. Is there anything I can get to bring home from there? I should be back in about an hour, probably less."
"You know what the boys and I like, so that will be great. Jake likes the same things his brothers do or at least I hope so. I never really thought about if his tastes had changed or not. I love you and thanks for not giving up on us."
Jake walked into Kelly's and saw Sam there waiting for him. "Carly said that you have some great news for me. I can't wait to hear it. Do you know who you are and that is the news?"
Jake placed his order for his house and sat down next to Sam. "I know who I am and it is something that is hard to tell everyone. I have been afraid of who I was for a while but it makes sense since it seems I still have some of his old tricks up my sleeve. Lucky brought Jake home to Elizabeth from Greece. Which is the greatest news for her and then I find out that I am Jason Quartermaine. I will go by that name because I do not want to ever be Jason Morgan again. I have a lot of things in common with Jason but I don't have the heart that Jason has or maybe I do but some of it is gone. I feel a connection with Elizabeth and Carly but I don't have one with you. I love Elizabeth but I only feel friendship towards you. I think that you are great but I know that I can't stay married to you. Danny deserves to have his father in his life and I will be there for him. Danny has sensed who I was before anyone else. He is a great kid and I would love to spend more time with him." Sam just looked like she was slept across the face. She couldn't understand that he would have a connection with so many people but not with her. She knew that if Jason came back it would be to her and not anyone else, especially Elizabeth. She couldn't open her mouth because she knew whatever she said it would come out wrong. She looked at her husband, kissed him on the cheek and walked out of Kelly's. Jason picked up his dinner for his family and left Kelly's.
He drove home to find the boys and Elizabeth waiting for him. He finally found the peace that he had been missing. His love for Elizabeth was getting stronger every day. "Okay everyone I have dinner. I also want to tell you that I know who I am. I will no longer be going by Jake Doe but as Jason Quartermaine. My family is thrilled and you all will have a new brother, Danny. If you have any questions and if I can answer them, I will." Jason put the dinner down on the table and everyone got their meal and sat down.
Elizabeth was very happy to have the whole family together under one roof. She had prayed for so long that one day it would come true and it had. Lucky was coming over later to spend some time with the boys before going back on the road. He had started up his music career and was touring with some of his friends. He was only going to be in Port Charles for a few days. His band had to postpone for a while because of Lucky's kidnapping. Now that all of that was resolved, they were able to get some of the dates back.
Aiden was very excited to spend some time with his dad. Cam was never really sure of who his father was due to it always changing. Jason had been a great father figure and he was hoping that maybe he would adopt him some day. The boys ate like the house was on fire. Lucky was going to pick up all three of them and take them to see his brother, Nik and his mother, Laura. They had just finished eating when Lucky knocked on the door.
"I hope that I am not interrupting but I came by here to pick up the boys. We are going to see my brother and mother. If there are any of you that want to stay home, it is fine. I know that Jake being here is the greatest blessing that we could get and you boys might want to stay here. That is fine with me. I just want you to know that you all are important to me." Jake looked up at the man that saved him and brought him back to his parents. Cameron was ready to go and so was Aiden. Lucky could see in Jake's eyes that he wanted to stay with his parents.
"Jake, I can see that you are torn about going with me or staying home with your parents. Either way is fine with me. You will not be hurting my feelings if you want to stay home. I know that is all new to you and that you have been living far away from your mother for so long. You need to do what makes you feel safe." Jake hugged Lucky and went straight back to him mother. That was all the answer that Lucky needed. He took Cam and Aiden with him to see his mother and brother.
Elizabeth was so relieved to have both Jake and Jason by her side. She still felt like she was in some sort of dream. Jake looked at his father and knew that even though he didn't look quite the same that he was his father. This version of Jason was a mix between both Jason Quartermaine and Jason Morgan. He was glad that he knew who he was but was still frustrated because he didn't really have the memories that he wanted to go with everything that he heard.
"Jake, mommy and me are going to see someone who can help us be better people. We have been away from each for so long that we need help with getting back together. We were thinking that maybe you could go talk to someone too. I know that you have been in a lot of pain thinking that we were dead or had abandoned you. We would never do that to you and we want you to know that you will always have us. We also think that maybe we could have our own family counseling here at home. One night a week it will be someone's turn to pick a subject that person wants to talk to all of us about. That way if something is bothering you we can talk about it and all be on the same page. That same person can pick out the meal that night and also the movie. I think that Friday or Saturday nights would be the best because of school. How does that sound to you?" Jake looked at his parents with tears in his eyes. He knew that they loved him but he still wondered why no one would go look for him for all this time if they were alive.
"I say we go get some ice-cream and watch a couple of movies. We could either do that or have daddy go get the ice-cream or I can go get the ice-cream." Jake started to get scared and Elizabeth knew that ice-cream was not worth it." Jake then went to the freezer and saw some popsicles that they could have and a couple of good Marvel movies.
The three of them sat down and watch the movies together and ate the popsicles. There was a connection there that Jason felt and he knew no matter what happened in the future that they were going to find peace with everything that was in the past. Jake fell asleep in his mother's lap while Elizabeth fell asleep in Jason's arms. He knew that he should bring them upstairs but he didn't have the heart to wake them up. He decided that he was going to move just a little to get the feeling back in his arm when the doorbell rang. Lucky had called to say he was keeping the boys overnight at his brother's house so Jason had no clue who would be at his door. It was after eleven so it couldn't be good. He went to answer the door and Sam was there with Danny.
"I need to talk to you and you need to see what you will be giving up by staying with that bitch. I am taking Danny away from Port Charles and you will never see your son again. If you want to see your son, then you have to choose between me and her. Once and for all, you can't keep going back and forth like you did when we were together before." Jason was floored by the anger and hate that was coming from Sam.
"Sam, I will not choose between you and Elizabeth. If you want to take Danny away, then I will fight you for custody of our son. I love Elizabeth, I always have and always will. So I guess I am choosing Elizabeth over you but I am not choosing her over my son. She knows that Danny is a part of me and that I will do everything I can to make sure that he stays in our life. I am not someone who can be pushed and you should know that." Sam looked at Jason and grabbed Danny and took off.
Jake was scared when he heard Sam shouting at his father and mother. "I don't like her. She scares me. She reminds me of the lady that took me away from here when I was hit by the car. I don't know why but she scares me like that lady did to me four years ago. She told me that my parents were glad that I was gone and that they didn't want me anymore."
"I want you to know that your mommy and I missed you every day you were gone. There was a time that I was gone too and your mother was devastated about. I was shot and thrown into the river. Someone saved me and then when I was brought back Helena tried to use me as one of her soldiers. I really felt that I was lost because I have lost my memories. I was hit by a car too and my memories were taken away from me like when I was a teenager. I found out today that I am Jason Quartermaine and that I am your dad. I never felt so much love but I wish I could remember more of when you were little."
"I have more memories of the two of you that I can share when you are ready for them. You were four when you ran into the street and got hit by a car. You were taken to the hospital and we were told that you died. I lost a big part of my heart that night because you were the one holding onto to it. I had to try and get better for your two brothers. They both needed me and if I thought for one moment that you were alive, I would have searched the world over until I found you. Your father died shortly after your brother Danny was born. He had just gotten back together with Sam and went to help a friend. He was shot and thrown into the Port Charles River. We never found his body and prayed he made it but we lost hope. Last year, he came back to Port Charles and was hit by an SUV. When he was brought into the hospital, his head was bandaged and he looked at me and then passed out. There seemed something about him that I trusted but couldn't figure out why. He had plastic surgery and his face looks different and he has no memories of his life before the accident. I took him in because I knew that he was someone I could trust with your brothers and myself. Most people thought I was crazy and told me to leave him alone. I didn't listen and now we know that you are both alive." The tears streamed down all of their faces.
Then Jason passed out. Elizabeth and Jake were stunned. Elizabeth called 911 and the three of them went to the hospital. Patrick took a look at Jason and brought him down for some scans. He had come to in the rescue but his head hurt really bad. Patrick admitted him overnight and they waited for the results to come in.
Jason started having his memories come back to him in full force. They were bits and pieces of his life before both accidents. He even remembered when he was Jason Quartermaine. But the troubling part of his memories were the ones about Robin. He now realized that Robin should be there because they had escaped the clinic and made it back to Port Charles. He watched Robin go into her house. He knew that Helena must have her.
Patrick was paged to his room. Patrick and Elizabeth were both there when he told them about Robin and his escape from the clinic. Robin saved him and brought him back and then was held hostage. They both escaped and then the car crashed and they walked back into Port Charles. "I want you to know Patrick that Robin loves you. I know you think otherwise but I know that she was going home to you and that she was not leaving. I think that they might have threatened her to finish more of her research. She only wanted to be with you and Emma. I am sorry that I didn't remember this until now. We need to get her back home."
Patrick called Anna and had her come to the hospital. With Jason's memories back it was going to be a bit easier for them to get to Robin. Nik owed them for everything that he and his grandmother had done to them so he was going to help too.
Laura was going to take care of her grandsons while everyone headed to Greece. They went to the island and started to explore parts of the island that she could be held at. Jason looked at the island and knew where she was at. He was there before and he saw Jake. He knew his son was alive then but was being conditioned at the time so he didn't even realize at the time who the young boy was. "Robin should be in this area. I was held down here for training. I just realized that I saw Jake and didn't even realize it was him."
The went down into the tunnel and after taking care of some of the guards they found Robin. She was in shock that someone was actually there to free her. "I can't believe that you found me. I thought I would be here forever. How did you find me?" Patrick hugged his wife and told him that Jason was alive and got back his memories.
"The plastic surgery made you like a lot nicer. Sorry, not that there was anything wrong with you before but you seem happier than I have seen you in a long time. Does my best friend, Elizabeth have anything to do with it?" Jason blushed and she started to laugh.
"Did you know that Jake was alive and being held here on this island too?"
"I heard of a young boy being on the island but I was told he was a relative and I was never allowed to go anywhere except here in the tunnels. There was a time that I was here when they were conditioning the soldiers like Jason and I knew he was there but not Jake."
"Well, he is at home thanks to Luke, Laura and Lucky. He brought him home to me a couple of days ago. Now that my dreams have come true, best friend. I think that it is your turn to have your dreams come true. Now you can go home to your family too."
Everyone got together and walked out of the tunnel to the sunlight. Patrick had picked up a strong pair of sunglasses for Robin because it would probably blind her to see actual sun.
Nik had gone to see his grandmother and he got himself a big surprise. Standing next to his grandmother was his ex-wife and future wife, Emily Quartermaine. She was in a daze so he knew that she was being controlled. "Emily go see your future husband. I think he needs a kiss." Nik watched as Emily came towards him to give him a kiss. Just then everyone walked inside the house to get Nik.
Then all hell broke out. The place was soon surrounded by Helena's guards. The girls were grabbed and sent upstairs being held in one of the bedrooms. The men were soon surrounded but with Jason's skills, the guards were taken care of. "I really miss having you as one of my soldiers. You were truly the best. I know that the doctor took care of the implant but now I have your dear sweet sister as my pawn. My doctor is much better than the last one and you will never know how I control her. She will kill all of you without even flinching. She has her memories but when certain things are brought to her mind than she goes on a killing mission just like you did, Jason."
Nik was stunned that his grandmother would use Emily in that way. He wanted to kill her so bad but he knew that something would happen to Emily if he did. "Grandmother, why are you doing this to me? I don't understand."
"My dear Nickolas, you will never understand why I do the things I do. I just do them because I need too. You can go get your women and take them home. I think that Nik needs to stay here with Emily for a little while longer. You are free to go." Jason looked at Nik and wondered how he could tell his mother about Emily without her freaking or wanting to go straight to Greece and bring her back. Patrick and Jason went up to get Robin, Elizabeth and Anna.
When the five of them left the island, Elizabeth texted Nik. "I am sorry Nik. We are going to figure a way to get you and Emily back to Port Charles. Hang on your family will be helping you out. Love, Liz"
Nik received the messaged and smiled. He knew that she would get his brother, father and mother to save him and Emily.
