Hi! I am so sorry that it has taken me so long for this update! The holidays were crazy and I just couldn't find the time. I started this last week and wanted it up by Monday but real life interfered. I know it's kind of short but I wanted to get something posted. And i promise to try and not wait so long next time. Thank you all so much for your feedback. I'm glad you're enjoying it!


Chapter 3

Next weekend came fast. Sam finished putting Scout's shoes one as she thought about all that happened during the week. They were getting ready to go over to Hank and Roxie's for Leah's birthday party.

The week consisted of getting Danny set up in his new school. Callum went there as well so Sam and Jason felt better knowing he had a friend there. And they had become the best of friends. With them living next door to each other, they spent most of their days together. They would hop back and forth between their back yards. Indy suggested they put some kind of a fence up so that they wouldn't drag snow and dirt in the house on their way. Jason and Lee were able to get that done with in a day. Sam and Indy stood inside looking out at their husbands. Lee had said something that made Jason look at him funny before busting out laughing.

Sam sucked in a breath at the sight. Indy looked over to her knew found friend and placed a hand on her arm "Are you ok?"

"I've never seen him like this." Sam whispered.

"Like what?" Indy asked.

"Jason has always been introverted. He had to be. He was Sonny Cornithos's enforcer. No one usually gave him the time of day. They made their judgments and that was it." Sam explained. She looked over to Indy and smiled "None of you have done that. You all know who he is obviously, but you haven't brought it up or made him feel unwanted because of his past. I'm not use to that and neither is he." She finished.

Indy walked closer to her and wrapped an arm around her shoulders "We don't care about your past. You and Jason are good people, I knew form the second I saw you. Lee isn't exactly a guy with a squeaky-clean past. Neither is Ren. But the men they have become are some of the best I've ever known. Nobody is perfect. Trust me, I know that." she said with a smile. "Lee and I and everyone else don't care what's in your past. But we are grateful to whatever it was that led you here."

Sam smiled to the woman that she had become very close to in a short amount of time. She didn't know what it was about her that was so easy to let in. But she was glad she did. Indy Nightingale was good people. And for the first time, she was also grateful to what led them here.

"Hey baby. You almost ready?" Sam looked over and saw Jason standing the door. He had on a black henley with the buttons open at the collar. It fit tight around his muscled arms and forearms. He was wearing the watch Danny and Jake had gotten him last Father's Day. His blue jeans and black boots finished off his look. Her husband was an incredibly good-looking man. She looked back up to his face and saw the knowing smirk on his. "You done?" he asked in a husky voice.

Sam shrugged her shoulders "If I have to be." Then turned back to her daughter and lifted her from her dresser and set her on the floor to play with her toys.

Jason chuckled and walked into the room. Sam had one a red sweater that fell of one shoulder with black skinny jeans and her signature black boots. His wife looked good. He looked back up at her and saw her cocky grin. "Are you done?" she mimicked his words.

Jason sent her a hot look and moved forward "No." he said before reaching out and snagging her around her waist, pulling her into his arms and kissing the grin right off her face. Sam wrapped her arms around his neck and eagerly opened for him. The last few weeks had been so busy that they hadn't gotten any time to themselves. She regretted that more than ever, especially right now and she felt him run his hands down her back to her butt. She sighed as he took the kiss deeper, making her moan.

They both froze when they heard Scout start to giggle. Sam pulled away and looked down at her daughter. She had her eyes towards the door. Sam and Jason both looked and saw their son standing there with his hands out in front of him, eyes closed and pretending he was kissing someone, making fun of his parents.

"Daniel Edward Morgan!" Sam scolded her oldest. Danny jumped, caught in his imitation and took off laughing. Sam looked to her laughing husband and narrowed her eyes "Not funny." But it only made Jason laugh harder. Sam pulled back and slapped at his arm "Can you please go and wrangle Joker Jr. so we can leave?"

"Ok" he chuckled, kissing her cheek before heading out to catch their son.

Sam turned back and scooped Scout up and grabbed the diaper bag "Baby girl, if it wasn't for you I would be living in a house alone with two boys. I don't know what I would do without you." She kissed her plump little cheek.

Sam giggled as she watched Leah scrunch her cute little nose. Danny was helping her try to build the Lego princess tower she and Jason had gotten her. It was pretty big but she wanted to be the one to build it. After a few minutes of watching her struggle, Danny had walked over and offered to help her. She looked at him with dreamy eyes and nodded her head. Hank and Jason watched with concern, but Sam and Roxie thought it was adorable. "My baby girl has her first crush." Roxie smiled and looked to her husband. Sam giggled at the glower that came over his face.

"She's 4." He said to his wife.

"And Danny is 5. He's not even lose to being into girls yet." Jason added.

"Oh yeah?" Sam asked then pointed toward the kids. Callum went over and was trying to get Danny to go and play with him. Her little boy shook his head and said something to his friend. He then tuned back and smiled crookedly at Leah.

"Shit" Jason said under his breath.

"What?" Hank asked.

"That's the same smile Jason gives me often. It's his 'I think you're adorable' smile." Sam explained.

"Shit" Hank muttered.

Sam and Roxie laughed at their husbands, then walked towards the kitchen.

"So how are you all adjusting?" Roxie asked as the made their way into the kitchen where most of the other women were including Indy.

"Really well. Danny loves his school. He's already made a few good friends. I've been looking through the paper to see if there are any jobs that interest me. I don't want to just be a stay at home mom. I'll drive myself crazy. The neighborhood is prefect for kids. But our next-door neighbor is a real bitch." She said the last part as a whisper.

"Oh, ha freaking ha." Indy said around a mouth full of birthday cake.

The ladies laughed and Sam shook her head. "So, have you found anything that interests you as far as work?" Ally asked.

Sam watched all the women look at Ally and Sam sensed something was up. "Not really. I'm not exactly a filing clerk kind of girl." A huge smile came over Ally's face and Sam got a little scared. "Good. Because I have the perfect job for you."

Sam looked at her shocked "What?" she asked.

"Well I know you used to be a P.I and you had your own business. And I've been doing it for a while now too and I've decided I want my own business. Lee's security firm is ok but it's not really the kind of work I want to do anymore. I want to branch out on my own. So, what do you say to going into business together? I know I'm not as tech savvy as The Jackal but I think it would be really cool for two women to own their own P.I firm. Thant not to say we won't have male employees or clients but…"

"Ally!" Sam finally said with a laugh. Ally stopped talking and looked at Sam. "Tell me when you want to start and I'm in."

"Really?" Ally jerked with excitement. "Oh, my God! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!" she ran over and hugged Sam right off the ground. "This is going to be so great. I have the prefect place in mind. We can go wee it tomorrow. If you like it too we can buy it then. I know the guy selling it." She said pulling back.

"Since you're sleeping with him, that's not a big shock." Indy smirked.

Ally sent a glare to her best friend then turned back to Sam "Is tomorrow too soon?"

Sam shook her head "It's perfect. I'll tell Jason he's playing Mr. Mom tomorrow." She laughed along with the girls.

"He'll be ok with you doing this kind of work again?" Ally asked.

"Jason has always supported me. He doesn't care for me to be around danger but he knows that I don't take unnecessary risks. We were both such danger junkies before the kids were born and while we still kind of are, we know what to say no to. It's one of the main reasons we left Port Charles." Sam said.

"Why did you leave your town?" Shirleen, Lee's "secretary" asked. Shirleen had Scout sitting on her lap and had been entertaining the baby with her phone.

"Shar!" Ava scolded her.

"What? It ain't like we all haven't been dyin' to know. I know the reputation of that town and I know the rep of the people in it. And I want to know if those people had anything to do with them leavin' or if they hurt them." Shirleen said with all attitude.

Sam adored this woman. She was no nonsense and full of spice. Sam learned real quick that she did not want to get on this woman's bad side and fortunately, Shirleen had taken a liking to her and Jason. "It's kind of a long story." Sam said.

"Child, there is a living room full of men gathered around a TV with football on and cold beers for days. There is a playroom full of kids that have new toys to set up and play with. We got time." All the women turned to Sam and she saw them settle in. Sam smiled and thought to herself that most people would find this nosy of them, but Sam liked to be able to talk to these girls. They were easy to and not judgmental at all.

"Ok." Sam said before she started to tell the story of how she and Jason left that town, and the people in it, behind them.
