Hey everyone! I was planning on updating this again on Monday since I'm going to try to do weekly updates which will give me time to get more chapters ready since I have exams coming up soon and the little free time I have now will be non-existent. BUT, I decided since it's St. Patrick's Day and GH has been giving us so very little of Jasam, I'd update early. Hope you all enjoy :)

Sam walked into the MetroCourt and headed for the restaurant. She had gotten home from Philadelphia late last night and promised to meet her parents for lunch. She wanted to give them their wedding present, and make sure they were still speaking after what happened.

"Sam!" Carly called out from the check-in desk.

"Hey Carly," she said as she walked over. "Thank you again for the honeymoon suite. My parents could use it."

"Well, remember I'm doing it for you," she said. "How's Jake doing?"

"He seemed to be doing okay. Danny got to spend time with him before we left yesterday, which was good because the day before he had just gotten out of his second surgery."

"Poor kid," she said. "Did they, um, happen to say how many kidneys Jake has?"

"I don't think they inventoried his internal organs," she said. "You think something is off?"

"Well, yeah," she said. "I want to know who's kidneys my daughter has."

"He was held by Helena, who brought Jason back to life. I think giving Jake new kidneys would child's play," Sam said, trying to reassure her. "I can ask Jason."

"No, no," she shook her head. "I don't want to stress him out with this, especially when he has no idea the circumstances. How's Jason doing?"

"He's good," Sam said with a smile.

"I haven't seen you that happy in years, not counting your moments with Danny," she said. "Are things heading in the right direction for you two?"

"I think so," she nodded. "We're taking it slow."

"You two always took it slow," she rolled her eyes.

"Which is a good thing," Sam said. "He's here and that's all that matters to me."

"I agree," she said. "Don't want to keep you waiting anymore. Your parents sat down like ten minutes ago."

"I will see what I can find out about Jake's time in captivity with Helena," Sam said before walking away.

She knew she'd have questions if it were Danny's life in question. Sam spotted her parents sitting in the corner and made her way over to the table.

"I'm very glad to see the two of you together, in one piece," she said as she sat down at the table. "I wasn't sure what to expect when I got home."

"We're very happy," Alexis said. "Still in one piece."

"How's Kiki doing?"

"Still unresponsive," Julian said with a sigh. "We're going to stop by the hospital after this."

"Speaking of that, how is Jake doing?" Alexis asked.

"Better," Sam said. "I don't know when they're going to let him go home. Jason said they want to make sure the surgery helped."

"How's Jason?"

"He's good," Sam smiled. "Danny was really happy to see him and spend some time with Jake the other day."

"I'm surprised Elizabeth allowed that," Julian said.

"Jason thought Jake would like to spend time with his brother," Sam shrugged.

"And I'm sure Jason wanted to spend some time with you," Alexis said knowingly. She hasn't seen Sam this happy in years and knew the return of her husband had to do with it.

"The three of us went to dinner, it was really nice," she said. "We're going one day at a time."

"You sure you want to get involved with him again?" Julian asked. "He's not the safest person. He did try to kill you."

"While he was under Helena's control," Alexis said, defending Jason. Sam was rather shocked. "I was never fond of your decision to be with him, but I finally realize he's your person. I'm not saying you need a man to be happy, because you certainly don't, but you just look the happiest I've seen you in a very long time."

"Jason's back, how am I not going to be happy? All I've ever wanted was for him to know that Danny is his and not Franco's, and now he knows and Danny gets to spend time with his dad. I never thought he'd have that."

"You're sure you want to be with him?" Julian asked again.

"I appreciate your concern, Dad," Sam said. "I don't know where Jason and I are going to head, but he's back and that's all that's important. He's the love of my life and I don't have to think about all the what-ifs anymore, I can finally feel okay with looking forward in life instead of wishing for the past."

"Okay," Julian said. "I just want what's best for you and my grandson."

"And I really do appreciate it," Sam said. "So, I didn't get a chance to give you your wedding gift."

"You didn't have to get us anything," Alexis said as Sam pulled an envelope out of her purse.

"I wanted to, and you two deserve it," she said and watched them open it.

"A weekend in the honeymoon suite at the MetroCourt," Alexis said. "Does Carly know it's for us?"

"Yes, she's doing it for me, which she just reminded me of before," she laughed. "Cash it in whenever."

"Thank you sweetheart," Alexis said as she put it away. "So, is Jason going to stay at Shriner's until Jake is discharged?"

"Probably, but I honestly don't know. I, uh, potentially did something stupid."

"What?"

"I called Lucky to tell him about Jake," Sam said, running her hands through her hair. "Nikolas called him too, before me thankfully, but I know Elizabeth is going to assume it was me and think I'm just calling Lucky to get her off Jason."

"Did you?" Julian asked.

"Of course not. Lucky raised Jake, he deserves to know what's going on," Sam said. "If Lucky being here leads her to getting back with him, then it's a happy bonus."

"Smart answer," Julian smirked.

"You think Lucky coming around will raise some questions for Jason now that he sees Elizabeth for who she really is," Alexis asked.

"Who knows," she shrugged. "He's really seeing her in a new light that I don't think he's ever had. Maybe it was going there when she said she withheld the DNA test on Danny, but I don't know."

"Guess we'll find out soon enough."

Jason was dozing off in the waiting room when his phone buzzed in his pocket. The doctors were checking Jake's progress to see if he could go home tomorrow. He was hoping Jake would get the OK to go home so everyone could get back into their normal lives. Elizabeth seemed to be getting too used to him being around all the time, but he wasn't having that conversation here. He was here for his son, like he always would be.

"Hi, I'm Lucky Spencer. My son Jake Spencer is a patient here," Jason overheard from his seat.

"His father is already here, try again," the receptionist said. Jason decided to help Lucky out.

"Can you call for Elizabeth Webber?"

"Lucky, Jake's room is down the hall," Jason said, saving him from the receptionist's wrath. "Thanks for coming."

"Thanks for letting me know," Lucky said as he followed Jason. "How's he doing?"

"He's ready to go home. I think we all are."

"Sam went back to Port Charles?"

"Yeah, she left yesterday," he said. "I didn't tell Elizabeth you were coming."

"That's probably for the best. Are Cam and Aiden here too?"

"Yeah, they're going to stay until Jake goes home," Jason said as he stopped in front of Jake's room and knocked.

"You don't have to knock," Elizabeth said as she opened the door and froze when she saw Lucky.

"Dad!" Cam and Aiden yelled excitedly as they jumped off Jake's bed and ran toward him.

"Hey guys," he said, hugging them both. "I heard from your Uncle Nik that Jake got hurt so I came home to visit."

"Are you staying?" Jake asked.

"I'll be home for a while," Lucky said, sitting on the edge of the bed.

"Nikolas called him?" Elizabeth asked suspiciously.

"That's what he said," Jason said. "I heard him at the front desk. He probably figured he should know since he raised him and all."

"I didn't think I could get in touch with him," she said, watching them all interact. "He doesn't stay long."

"He might," Jason shrugged, watching them as well. It didn't escape his notice how much alike Jake and Lucky looked. He remembered his phone went off earlier and checked it quick. It was a text was Sam.

"Her and Danny get home safe?" she asked, seeing his phone.

"Yeah," he nodded, slipping his phone in his pocket. "They got home late."

"I'm glad she came with Danny," she said and Jason looked at her in disbelief. "Danny and Jake are your sons and they should spend some time together."

"Yeah, my boys," he said, his eyes drifting back to Lucky. Something wasn't adding up.

Sam was cleaning up after dinner when her phone began to ring. She checked on Danny to make sure he was playing quietly before answering it.

"Hey, how's Jake doing?"

"Better. Doctors said he can come home tomorrow," Jason said.

"Oh good, I'm glad. He'll probably be so happy to be back in his own bed. Did Lucky show up?"

"Yeah," he said and sighed. "I have a question about that."

"You noticed a resemblance," Sam said knowingly. "My mom was wondering about that when I told her."

"Under what circumstances was Jake conceived?" he asked after a moment of trying to figure out the best way to ask this question.

"Well," she sighed, knowing she was involved in this story. "Here's the abbreviated version. We had broken up, my mother told me she hated me – I ended up sleeping with Ric to spite her. You saw and were hurt and went to Elizabeth. Elizabeth and Lucky were married but Lucky was spiraling and she was hurt. You two slept together and she got pregnant."

"Was there a question if he was mine?"

"Yeah," she said. "She had a DNA test done and said he was yours."

"Interesting," he said.

"What are you thinking?"

"I don't know," he said, shaking his head.

"So I don't have to bring this up later and put a damper on the conversation," she said quickly. "Do you know if Jake has both his kidneys?"

"Doctors questioned why he had two scars on his back. They asked if he had a transplant. Both kidneys are there, though. We didn't really know how to tell them the actual story. Why?"

"When Jake died you donated his kidneys to Josslyn, Carly's daughter," Sam explained. "She's a little worried."

"I'm sure Helena had him get new ones," Jason said, not believing this was a normal conversation. "I think everyone has a lot of questions that can't be answered."

"So moving on to happier subjects," Sam said, knowing Jason wasn't satisfied with her answers for his earlier questions. "My parents are still in one piece."

"Isn't Ric Molly's father?" he was still wrapping his mind over the backstory he just received.

"I'm not proud of what I did, Jason. I was really hurt that you ended things; my mom wanting nothing to do with me was the icing on the cake. I did it mostly to hurt myself because I felt so unwanted. It's in the past," she said, hoping this didn't change how he felt about her. "We both made a lot of mistakes and came out stronger for them."

"You're right," he said, admiring her ability to admit to her faults and learn from them. They obviously moved past that situation, so there was no reason to give it a second thought. "How's my boy?"

"Playing with his legos," Sam smiled. "He misses you."

"Is he the only one?"

"No," she laughed. "I miss you too."

"When I get home, maybe we should go on an actual date."

"Maybe? That's a sad way of asking me out, Mr. Morgan," she smirked.

"Well, Mrs. Morgan," he said, smiling at how normal that sounded to him. "Will you go on a date with me?"

"I think I can fit that into my schedule."

"You'll pencil me in?" he laughed.

"Just because it's you," she said, hearing a knock come from his side. "Do you have to go?"

"No, let me check who it is," he said. He walked over to the door and groaned when he saw Elizabeth on the other side. "You think I can pretend I'm not here?"

"Elizabeth?"

"Who else," he said, pinching the bridge of his nose, trying to ease his frustration. "Hold on."

"You can call me back if you want."

"No, no," he said as he opened the door. "Is it important?"

"I don't understand why you've been so hostile to me lately," Elizabeth said as she brushed past him and walked into his room.

"I'm busy," Jason said. "I'm on the phone."

"You keep brushing me off for Sam and I don't appreciate it."

"Oh Jesus," Sam said as she heard all of this. "Jason, just call me back."

"I'm sorry that I've been spending time with my wife and son and that bothers you," he said, his tone completely emotionless.

"Please," she scoffed. "You don't even remember being married to her. That marriage is done. You're free to move on from her and explore options in your life that you didn't have in the past."

"Like you? I think I did enough exploring, didn't really like what I ended up finding," he said, realizing how cold he was being but he's had enough of her games.

"Sam finally turned you on me. She couldn't do it in the past because you always remember how much you cared about me, but she finally succeeded."

"Sam didn't do anything," he said defensively. "You did this all to yourself. Your lies finally caught up to you and you can't own up to any of it. Maybe once you're able to do that, you'll be half the woman Sam is. Until then, you're just Jake's mom and I have to co-parent with you for his sake."

"She's a con artist tramp who snaked her way into your life and you've just been too blind to see it. She put out and that's why you stayed with her."

"Oh my God," Sam said, wishing she hung up earlier instead of letting her curiosity win. She wasn't even sure if Jason remembered she was still on the phone.

"Don't talk about her like that," he said angrily. "The little memories that I have, the ones that you wished I would never get back, are with her. I remember being with her and that snippet of my past made me feel more than I ever did during my months dating you."

"How could you say that?" Elizabeth said, tears streaming down her face. "We were in love."

"No, you liked Jake – you loved Jason. You took me to bed the minute you found out I was Jason and really fell for me then. Once you stop deluding yourself about how things really were, we can maybe get along. Until then, I'd like you to leave."

"Fine," she said, wiping at her cheeks. "Hopefully soon you'll remember how you felt about me before the accident and you'll realize I wasn't the bad guy."

"Good night, Elizabeth," he said as he shut the door behind her. He lifted up his phone to his ear and sighed when he saw Sam was still there. "So, did you catch all that?"

"I really should have hung up, I'm so sorry," she said quickly. "But thank you for defending me."

"I was kind of hoping you'd stay on," he laughed nervously. "There's only so much I can deal with until I start to think I'm the one acting crazy."

"Nope, not you at all. Maybe Lucky can talk some sense into her."

"Hopefully, because I don't know how many different ways I can tell her that I have no intention of going back to her."

"She's mad it's me you're spending time with. I think if it was anyone else she wouldn't be going as far as she is," Sam said. "I really thought she was coming around, but I guess not. She's never understood how we were always able to find our way back."

"Well, I will be finding my way back to Port Charles and we'll be finding ourselves on a date," he said.

"I'm looking forward to it. I have to get Danny to bed," she said.

"Kiss him goodnight for me," he said before hanging up. He couldn't wait to get home to do that himself.

Let me know what you guys thought, I love reading your reviews. I wish I had the time to respond to them, but know that I really appreciate it that you take the time out to leave one.

I've written most of this story earlier on, so a lot of it is in tune with the show, but kind of out of sync and my spin on what spoilers I come across on Twitter. I also think they really dropped the ball when they brought Jake back when it comes to Josslyn, I don't remember if they got an answer, so if they did answer it please let me know.

Thank you again for reading :)
