This was a one-shot, but I have to make it longer. I am a true Liason fan and I want to make sense of Franco and Liz. I just can't and so this is how I want the year to end for my favorite couple. If you are a big Franco and Sam fan, this is not the story for you. I don't own any of the characters, they belong to ABC and General Hospital. This is dedicated to my Liason friends.

Cam had been sent home because of defending his younger brothers. Aiden was being harassed because someone had leaked on social media that his future step-father had kidnapped him when he was a newborn and brought to Franco's mother's house. Aiden and Jake did not believe that Franco would do something like that. The boys showed them the proof, but Jake said that it was made up. Cam knew that it was true, because he remembered it. He tried to help his brothers, but the teachers grabbed Cam and brought him to the principal's office. They were not sure if they were going to give him a suspension or expel him. That was not his first fight and it would not his last, especially if his mother married a serial kidnapper and murderer. Franco made Jason look like a saint.

Liz picked up all three of her sons and knew that she needed to tell them the truth. She was not looking forward to it, but she was glad that Franco was out of town for some art showing. She always felt more relaxed when he was gone. She knew that she should feel relaxed with him instead of scared. Sometimes it was the good scare, that got your heart pumping faster, but that will lead to a heart attack.

Liz called for pizza because she knew that tonight they were going to need it. Jason had heard about the trouble so he stopped by and paid for the pizza as he walked in the door. He gave him a nice tip and the kid was over the moon with it. "I am sorry about intruding but I heard that there was some trouble in school. I just wanted to see if I could help you out since he isn't here."

Liz looked at her ex and just rolled her eyes at him. "Thank you for paying for dinner. The boys here are getting a bit excited about school, so much that they were fighting to get in there." Jason looked at her and just smirked at her.

"Mom, can we eat before the pizza gets cold? I am starving and then you can put me on a guilt trip, but feed me first." Liz had the boys get the table ready and they all sat down to pizza and cokes. Jake looked at his father and was afraid to ask him about Franco because he was starting to remember something like that, but didn't know who did it. He just hated to think that Franco would do something like that.

Dinner was finished and the boys helped their mother put the dishes in the dishwasher. Jason supervised, to make sure that nothing was missing from the table.

They gathered in the living room and Liz looked at Aiden. "What happened today, that your brother had to come to your rescue? I know that kids are mean, but what did they do and say?"

"Mom, they said that Franco kidnapped me when I was a newborn still in the hospital. Why would he do something like that and who found me?"

"Lucky is the one that found you and Jake. Your dad didn't want me to hurt or your Uncle Nik. We didn't know that Lucky was your dad at that time because of Nik's grandmother. We thought she took you at first, but then Franco was talking about playing a game, and you were the game. Everyone tried so hard to find you. Your father did and we are all very thankful for that. Remember when I said that Franco was sick, well that was one of the things he did because of his tumor."

"Mom, I know that you have feelings for the man, but someone does not kidnap and murder people because of a tumor. I think that he was trying to get to Jason and used Aiden to do it. Franco always wanted to out do Jason. He was obsessed with him. Aiden, you were in the wrong place at the wrong time."

"Cam, for the record I feel the same way you do, but your mother has a choice if she wants to forgive him for that. I just know that I can't do that. He has done other things to people who I love and trying to say it was because of a tumor, it just makes me sad. I know your mother wants to believe that and he seems to have changed, but it is not because of the tumor being gone. It is because your mother has the ability to calm the beast in some men. I can say that she has done that for me a time or two."

"I know that you did not just compare me to a lion tamer. I have been thinking about the wedding, and I am not sure what I am going to do. I am not sure if I really trust Franco anymore and I am also thinking about pulling you out of school. I am just not sure how to do this. I have to work and I can't be here at the same time. There is too much going on right now and I feel that I should take a step back and maybe move to where no one knows us. I love Port Charles and my friends, but I am starting to feel the walls close in on me. I don't know what is wrong with me."

Jake looked at his father and knew what to do. "Dad, do you remember what you said about a certain home you bought in Orange Beach. You said that you had purchased the property before you got hurt and that it was a place that you wanted mom to use if she needed time alone. Do you still have that house?"

"Yes. It is small and on the beach. It is one of the prettiest houses that I saw out there. It has five bedrooms and six bathrooms. It is on stilts so when a bad storm comes in, the home won't flood. If there is a hurricane coming, then we would have to leave the area. Mother Nature is nothing to joke about. I say it is small compared to the Quartermaine estate. I think it is a perfect size for your mom and you boys to go stay at. Now, before we talk to your mother, should I invite myself, or do I sneak down there later?"

"I say that you should ask mom about your place and if you want to leave Port Charles, then ask if you can join us, if not I can't tell you what to do. But, I know that my brothers and I would feel better if you came down with us. At least, for a little while." Jake and Jason went back to where everyone was sitting, watching videos.

"I am sorry. I was missing Emily and I wanted to show the boys some of our funny videos that we use to make. Cam remembers them because she would have Cam in them. There are times that I truly believe that life isn't fair. Sorry. I am just feeling out of sorts for some reason. I know you want to ask me something. Go ahead."

"Mom. Dad and I have a question to ask you. I know that school has barely begun, but would you mind us taking a break from Port Charles at least until spring. Dad has a beach house in Orange Beach, Alabama. It is beautiful down there and the house is right on the gulf. I know that you are wanting to paint again and it would be perfect for that. We can homeschool and you can sell your paintings to pay the bills. It would be perfect. We all need a break from here and then maybe Franco won't try to find us if dad is with us."

Jason looked at Liz. He wanted to say something but the words didn't want to come out. "I would like a chance to get to know the boys better and you too. The house is available for you and the boys anytime that you want to go. Just say the word, and we can go."

Liz looked at Jason and then at her sons. She knew that they needed to get away from Port Charles because the people in this town, don't let you forget anything. She should have known that Jason would do something sweet like that. "I have to put my notice in tomorrow. I will find out about the schools in Alabama and what I have to do to get them homeschooled. You have to tell a lot of people that you are moving away and with the boys and me. Good luck with that. I have to make a phone call, but Franco won't be back for three weeks. We have to be gone from here before then. I will call and tell him that I am leaving Port Charles, the night before we go."

Jason looked at Liz and then the boys. He had a smile that Liz had not seen in a very long time. She knew the timing was bad because of Oscar, but this was something that didn't happen every day. She knew that some people were going to be upset, but Jason was the one who asked along with Jake. The boys needed the move as much as she did. She looked at Jason and asked if he wanted to stay the night.

He nodded his head and he went to check on the property. He made sure the alarm was on and everything was locked up. He turned off the lights and headed upstairs. The boys were ready for bed. Jason went in and said goodnight to everyone. Liz went to check to make sure her sons had brushed their teeth and were ready for sleep. Cameron seemed very happy that he was going somewhere that didn't remind him of both Emma and Joss. He felt bad about Oscar, but he didn't need to be caught up in that anymore. He knew that before he left, he was going to tell Joss the truth or make Oscar do it.

Liz laid down and Jason wrapped his arms around her and the two of them fell asleep in each other's arms. The next day, the sun was out and it was time to get ready for school. Jason and Liz were going to the school to talk to the principal about her sons. She hoped that the someone could send her in the right direction of where to go for homeschooling and what she would need. The principal helped Liz and Jason with the paperwork they would need. They gave the parents, the work that the schools would like to know and where each boy stood in school.

Then Jason was going to drop Liz off at work and then go speak to Sonny. He was going to be the easiest one to talk too. Liz went over to Epiphany and asked if she had a few minutes to spare. "I am handing in my resignation and in two weeks, I will be moving to Orange Beach in Alabama. I want you to know that you have helped me through more things that I care to think about. You are like a mom to me and I will miss you terribly. Jason owns a beach house and he is letting the boys and I move in with him. I was shocked when he offered his place and left it up to me whether or not, I wanted him with us. I have discovered that I don't trust Franco the way I should, if I was going to marry him. I am going to put my house up for sale and start packing my things."

Liz then went to speak to Monica. She told her that Jason, her sons and she were moving to Alabama. They were moving there onto the beach. She needed to get away from Port Charles, she hurt too much living there. She wanted a fresh start, especially after the boys in the school had it in for Aiden. Cameron was about to get expelled and Jake was barely keeping his head above water. Monica was happy for them. She knew that Jason moving down to Alabama was the move that he needed to make. The boys adored him and so did Liz.

"Thank you for telling me. I know that it couldn't be easy, especially how I always stood up for Sam. I was wrong about that. There has been so much heartache lately, that it would be good for something like this to happen. It would give me a place to run too when I can't put up with certain people. I wish you luck. I hope that you will bring the boys over before you leave."

"I would be honored to do that. I am getting back to work, but thank you for all that you have done for the boys and me."

Liz saw Drew and Kim walking towards her office. "I don't want to interrupt, but I have news for you both. The boys and I are moving south with Jason. He has a house on the beach in Alabama. He and Jake asked me to pack up and move. I think that it is best for us, but I feel so bad about Oscar. I wish there was more that I could do for you and him."

"It is okay. I think that he is thinking about taking the tests. I hope that Jason has his earplugs for when he tells Sonny and Carly. I know that I would not want to be there. I have always wondered if the two of you would get back together. There have been gaps in my memory and I think those gaps were about you. It just almost seemed so cut and dry about Sam, Sonny and Carly, but you were different. It was like he held back some when the brain mapping happened. It would make sense why I wanted Sam and how quick things changed between us. I have a chance to get my memories back. I just have to sell my soul to the DA."

"I told you that need to speak to someone who can force her hand. Tape her and let Jordan listen to her on tape. Then she will be forced to give you the flash drive. You don't deserve her doing this to you. Or you could have Sam break into her place and steal it back for you. It is your property. It is your life."

"You are so hard core. I didn't know that you were so bad assed. I might just be a little scared of you now. Jason is going to have his hands full with you."

"You two need to settle down. People will start to say things about you too. Now, let me tell you, I hope you have room in that beach house, because I would probably want to go visit sometime this spring. Hopefully, Oscar will be up for it and that our prayers will be heard. I heard about the beaches down there and having the sand in my toes sounds really good about now."

"I know. That is why I am so excited about going down there. I will have that view every day. I will take lots of photos and send them up to you and Drew. You just have to share. You can post some up at work. It could be a good focal point for the moms in labor."

Liz was happy about leaving, but she knew that leaving her friends behind would suck. She talked to Felix and Piph and told them about the beach house. She was starting to feel better when Carly and Sam came towards the nurses hub. She was ready to hear it and they let her have it.

"Do you really think that this is a good time for Jason to be leaving? He is working with Sonny again, and he has been taking care of things, but he doesn't need to be pulled back into your orbit. I knew that Franco and you were not getting married, but that doesn't mean you can take my best friend away."

"Carly, Jason asked me to move down there. He bought a house down on the beach and kept it in case I ever needed a place to get away. You just have to ask him. When we get there, he can send you photos of the place. It is right on the gulf. It is going to be paradise. The boys and I need a break. Jason has a place and he wants to go too. You need to grow up and let him be who he wants to be."

"What about Danny? He is just getting to know his son and he is going to leave him. I don't see that happening. You are much too greedy and maybe that was supposed to be a place for Danny and I to go too. What makes you think that Jason wants you and your brats to move down there."

Jason showed up after telling Sonny about his new life away from Port Charles. "I talked to Sonny about moving down to Alabama. He said that I have to go speak to the five families. I would be going towards one of the families areas and it is best that I tell them now, before they think that I am there to take their territory away. Sam, I bought the house for Elizabeth and our sons. I want Danny to come down and visit. I will still be a part of my son's life. Carly, I know how you feel, but this is what I want. I love you guys, but Liz means the world to me. I have been in love with her since the time she took care of me at the studio."

Liz had finished up her day and Jason was on his way to see the five families. Jason talked to the men and told them that he didn't want to Port Charles, but move to Orange Beach in Alabama. He told them that he would keep silent and if he was needed to hide someone, that he would. He didn't plan on going back into the mob and wanted to set up a motorcycle shop. It was going to be for repairs, restoring old motorcycles and selling them.

The men talked to Sonny and agreed to let Jason go. When it was all done, Jason was ready to relax. He headed to see Liz and his boys. The five of them sat down to dinner when Liz got a phone call from Franco. Sam took it upon herself to let Franco know about Liz's plans with Jason. He was furious.

"I thought that we were getting married. Now I have to hear from Sam, that not only are you not getting married to me, but you are moving down to Alabama with Jason and our boys. I want to hear it from you why you are doing this. I am leaving right now and will be home in a few hours, you make sure that he is not there. You and I are going to have a talk. You are not leaving me and definitely not going to live with him."

"Franco, this is the reason why, we could never be together. You are too controlling and I don't trust you. Jason is giving me a fresh start and that is what I need. This is what my sons need and I need to be away from you. Don't come here and make a scene. Jason is staying here, because right now, I am a bit scared of you. You need to finish what you are doing in NYC. I will move and have the home up for sale. Then you can come back and get your things. You and I are over."

The boys could see that there mother was afraid. Cameron was scared too, but Jake and Aiden thought that their mother was putting too much into what Franco was saying. Cameron remembered some of the things that he heard about Franco. She knew that she had reason to worry.

Jason went to his apartment and got his things together and brought them over to Liz's home. He wanted to make sure that Franco knew that he was there. Liz wanted Jason but was afraid that he wasn't ready for that. She was happy that he was right next to her in bed. It was around two in the morning when Franco showed up. He started ranting and raving about Liz belonging to him and that he was not going to let her go. Jason called Chase and had Franco arrested. Liz knew that she was going to have to speed up their leaving. She felt bad because there was so much going on, but with Franco back, it was going to be a lot harder to stay in town.

Jason and Liz went to General Hospital the next morning. Jason went to see his mother while Liz went to see her boss. "I have a problem. Sam called up Franco to tell him that I was leaving Port Charles and going to Alabama with Jason and our boys. I want to finish out the time, but I am afraid of what he is going to do if we stay here."

"I understand and I wish you the best. Just call me when you get down there. You mean a lot to us here and we want you safe. I just want you to know that I have always had a soft spot for you, Felix and Sabrina. I miss her so much sometimes. Just be careful. I want you to know that I love you all, even Jason."

"Piph, I didn't know that you cared. I should have though, because I was your patient enough." Piph looked like she wanted to throw something at Jason and that made him laugh more.

Monica came down to say goodbye to Liz and wished her good luck. "When you get bored and need company, just give us a call. We will come down to see you all. Have a safe trip and don't look back. Franco is a part of your past. Just leave him there."

Jason had already made plane reservations for the family to fly down to the beach. Then there was going to be an SUV waiting at the airstrip for them and then they would be going home. Jason had hired a crew to pack up their home and bring it down to Orange Beach. The house was up for sale and the boys were having their last day at school.

Jason had talked to everyone, but wanted to say goodbye to Michael, Joss, Oscar and Danny before leaving. They were going to meet at Kelly's and then head to the airport. Liz had packed up their things that they needed for the first few days. The boys had already packed what they really wanted to take.

Sam, Carly, Kim, Drew and Sonny were also at Kelly's. Jason tried to say goodbye to his son, but Sam was not having it. She wanted Danny to think that Jason was choosing Liz's family over hers. "Daddy, do you have to go? I know that you will miss Jake, but I will be here. Mom thinks that you like them better than us. Why would you like them better, did I do something wrong?"

Jason was broken up about it and then Franco came into Kelly's too. Sonny knew that it was going to get bad in there. He thought the best thing that could happen was that the boys would go outside while the parents talk it out, or the parents go outside and the boys and Joss have their ice cream.

Jason walked outside with Liz. Franco followed with Sam and Carly. "Okay. Liz, the boys and I are leaving today. We are here to say goodbye. Someone thought that Franco should know that we were together and moving away. We didn't want this to happen and Liz was going to tell Franco right before we left. Our time tables have moved up, but nothing else has changed. We are leaving Port Charles and we wanted to say goodbye. Not this way. Sam, I have been in love with Liz since way before you even came here to Port Charles. We were always trying to please other people and this time we are doing it for ourselves. Aiden was being bullied because of what Franco did to him when he was a newborn. Cameron was trying to help his brother out and got expelled. Jake was just trying to stay ahead of the bullies himself. Moving will make things better for the three of them. Their mother will home school them and I am going to start fixing up motorcycles. Carly, I know how you feel about me leaving. You need to know that I have to do this. It will be better for everyone once this calms down. Sam, I never loved you the way that I should have and I am sorry for that. I am not sorry about Danny because he is a great little boy. I want you to know that I will take care of him and will want to have him come down to Orange Beach on vacations and we will also come up to see him here in Port Charles."

"Liz, you will not get away with this. Jason will tire of you and ran back screaming to me. Just remember that. Our son will be waiting for him and so will I. Jason, I am sorry that I have been pushing you away all this time. I still have feelings for you. I will prove to you, that I love you like I did before."

"Sam, you are a little too late. Jason and I are together and we plan on getting married when we get established down there. Danny is always welcome to see us and his brothers. Franco, I have realized that you are a bit too intense for me. I am sorry if I let you believe that I was in love with you. I think that I was in love with the idea of you, but not really you. Jason, we need to get our sons. The plane is leaving soon."

Carly, Franco and Sam started yelling but Jason and Liz blocked them out. Sonny had the boys ready for Liz and Jason when they came back in. Jason said goodbye to his nephews, Joss and to his son, Danny.

They got into a limo that Sonny had got for them. They made it to the airport and got their luggage all taken care of and headed toward the gate. Jason and Liz had the boys go up ahead of them, Then after they had been cleared they headed towards their gate. The boys got something to read and gum to chew. They also had their phones to play their games on.

Liz and Jason sat in amazement that they were actually leaving Port Charles behind. The future was there for them to reach out and grab. "Here we come, Orange Beach. Ready or not!"
