A few days later Jessica got back from her trip in Boston with Jayden. Today Sam was going to get some answer. It was painful to him to have to wait this long. Just then Jessica came up with Jules and she was dressed up like she was in Boston. She was also carrying gifts for everyone.

"Hello everybody! I'm back!" Jessica yelled

Everyone came down from the briefing room and came to see Jessica. Each team mate hugged her one by one. Last one was Sam who hugged her tighter than normal.

"Sam! Can't breathe!" Jessica yelled

Sam noticed and let go fast

"Sorry" Sam said

"It's okay."

"So how was your trip?" Ed asked

"Yeah did the Red Sox win?" Spike asked

"Yes they did and Boston was such a beautiful place. I got to learn a lot of things and went to different places like the science museum and the east side. Plus I bring gifts from Boston."

Jessica started handing out gifts to everyone. She noticed that Sam was walking away from the group to the locker room. He motioned him to come meet with him. So Jessica grabbed her things and looked at her mom.

"Hey mom I'm going to get ready." Jessica said

"Okay see you back out here." Jules said

Jessica ran towards the locker and went inside to see Sam on the bench so quiet. She closed the door and stepped towards him.

"Sam what's wrong?" Jessica asked

Sam was silent and kept looking at the floor

"Sam talk to me. Is there something you're not telling me?"

Sam then got up and showed her the envelope with the paternity results in it. Jessica then looked at Sam in shock.

"I don't know. Is there something you're not telling me?" Sam said in anger

"Sam listen. I was going to tell you-" Jessica started out

"When? Around the time you get shot down on the job or never at all? Do you know how hurt I when I found out from someone other than you? You know how much I love you. How could you keep this from me?" Sam cried

Jessica then got scared and started to cry

"Sam I'm sorry I didn't mean to hurt you. I was going to tell you when I got back. You have to understand I was shocked too." Jessica cried

"Did you even care at all to tell me? Cause you didn't seem to care that your mom should know about it too." Sam said in rage

"Of course I cared. How can you ask me that?"

"How can I not?"

Sam and Jessica just stared at each other for a long time. Then the alarm went off. Jessica grabbed her gear and suited up. Sam and Jessica ran out of the locker room and found the whole team at the desk. A five year old girl was kidnapped from a park. Everyone headed for their trucks and headed off towards the park.

~Flashpoint~

Once at the park they discovered that the kidnapper was a woman trying to get her own kids back from their foster parents. It lead them to the museum where abducted another little girl. All the SRU officers took everyone to a secure place till the situation was fine. Jessica was on the other side of the place looking for the girls. She kept a record of every place she search on her camera. Then she saw the kidnapper with the two girls and headed after them.

"I just spotted the kidnapper with the two girls. They're heading towards the loading dock." Jessica told Spike over the mic

"Jessica got a lock on Maggie and the kids." Spike said over the mic

"Where?" Greg asked over the mic

"They're heading towards the loading dock."

Then everyone in different sections of the museum was heading towards the loading dock.

"Jessica take it slow and wait for us. The subject is armed and emotional angry." Ed ordered over the mic

"I know what to do." Jessica said

Jessica ran towards the loading dock and found the kidnapper with the girls near the exit

"Stay where are right now!" Jessica ordered

"Leave us alone!" Maggie yelled

"Let the children go right now!"

"I can't do that!"

Then they were at a dead end and Jessica approached the three of them

"Listen your scaring the kids. I can't let you leave here with the kids." Jessica said

Jessica went to grab one of the girls when Maggie took out her knife and slashed Jessica in the arm. Jessica fell to the ground screaming while Maggie took off with the kids.

"Jessica what's going on?" Jules asked

"Subject has escalated! She slashed me with the knife in the arm!" Jessica cried over the mic

Sam heard the response over the mic and ran so fast towards the loading dock searching for his daughter.

"Jessica! Jessica!" Sam called out

Sam then looked over to the next room and saw Jessica lying on the floor bleeding from her arm. He ran towards her and knelled down.

"Jessica! Oh my god! Don't worry I got you." Sam said in shock

"I'm so sorry" Jessica cried in pain

"It's okay come on. I need EMS! SRU officer down!" Sam said to his mic

Sam lifted her up and ran outside towards the EMS truck and laid Jessica on the gurney. One of the EMS looked at the cut on Jessica's arm.

"Is she going to be alright?" Sam asked

"Yes it's a minor cut but she will need stitches." one EMS guys said

"Sam I'll be fine just get back out there." Jessica said

Sam looked at his daughter and gave her a kiss on the head before running back out and finishing the mission. He was so going after that woman for hurting his kid.

~Flashpoint~

Later that day they arrested the woman and return the kids to their foster parents. Jessica didn't need to go to the hospital cause the EMS people fixed her on the scene fast and she went back to work later on. Then everyone went back to the SRU and debriefed a bit and went to the locker room to leave for home. Sam caught up with Jules and Jessica.

"Hey Jules. Things between you and the boss okay?" Sam asked

"Yeah we're all good. So Jessica you will be spending the night at Sam's and I will see you tomorrow for home and work." Jules said

Jessica and Sam looked at each other in a tense look but then changed it fast

"Yup that sounds about right." Jessica said

"So do you have any plans tonight?" Sam asked to Jules

"Yeah huge. Going grocery shopping and doing some laundry." Jules said

"Sounds fun."

"Hey thanks for before about speaking my mind."

"All people should."

"Have fun you two." Jules said to both Jessica and Sam

Jules left the two of them alone. Then Sam and Jessica left for their locker room and grabbed their stuff and left for his apartment.

~Flashpoint~

Jessica came out in her new Boston Red Sox PJ's and went to get a soda at the fridge. Jessica and Sam haven't talked to each other since their argument in the locker and the incident at the museum. She really didn't want to lose her relationship with her father. Then she sees Sam coming from his room to get a magazine. Jessica then walks up to him but then Sam raced back to his room and slammed the door in her face.

"Come on Sam. You can't ignore me forever." Jessica yelled

There was nothing said on the other side of the door. Jessica then banged on the door for him to answer but he didn't.

"Fine you may not want to talk to me but I'm going to say what I have to say. I was shocked when I got the results back from the lab. I cried in my car for an hour being late on my last day of school. I wanted to tell you so badly you have to believe. But when I thought about it some of your past stories came into my head. You have been through a lot growing up. From losing your sister to not having relationship with your father must have crushed you. Then when you went into the Special Forces you killed your best friend by accident. Hearing all those stories made me realize that if maybe if you found out that I was your daughter then you would lose it. Plus you may lose whatever relationship you have with my mom. Today though I did not deserve all that anger you gave me in the locker. I did deserve some of it but all of it. Then I get slashed in the arm and you panic and then you go back to hating me. I'm so sorry Sam but please don't do this to me. You were the best thing that ever happened to me and my mom. I know you and mom are done but I can't lose you. Please Please forgive me!" Jessica cried

Jessica slowly fell to the floor and leaned on the door still crying her eyes out. Nothing happened for a minute until the door opened. Jessica looked up and saw Sam knelling down to her. He reached out and touched Jessica's wounded arm and then looked straight at her.

"Look you were right. I have been through a lot in my life. I've lost family members, friends, and some of my sanity in the Special Forces unit. Then I left all that behind and came to become an SRU officer. Not to my dad's liking but I didn't care what he thought. Then I met your mom and I fell in love with her. Later something happened to me one day that may have been the best thing that ever happen to me and your mom." Sam started out

Jessica wiped her eyes and looked at Sam

"What was that?" Jessica asked

"You. Look I felt like I was already your father since when we found out you were Jules' daughter. I fell in love with you the way any father would have. I loved how the three of us did family like stuff together. It was like I had my own family. Then your mom and I broke up but I did not want to lose you one bit. Then I read the results that said you were mine and all I wanted was to hold you in my arms. I was just so mad you didn't tell me when you found out about the results. Then I see you hurt today and all I wanted to do was kill that woman for hurting my child. So listen I'm able to handle losing people like my sister, my father, my best friend, and your mom. But if there's one person I can't lose you it would be you. I can't lose you, Jess. You're my daughter and I love you so much." Sam said

Jessica then grabbed Sam and pulled him in towards a tight hug. She started to cry in the embrace.

"I'm so sorry I lied and yelled at you." Jessica cried

"It's okay. Sweetheart it's okay. I love you, Jess." Sam said

"I love you too."

Sam carried Jessica to her room and placed her on her bed and he sat next to her. He reached out and stroke his daughter's face while she was still crying.

"It'll be okay. I promise you that." Sam said

Jessica got up and faced Sam

"I can't tell my mom this. Not yet because she'll freak." Jessica said

"She might but what I really want to know is how me and your mom met eighteen years ago. You know how but you can tell me in the morning."

"Thank you. So when are the times can I call you my dad?" Jessica asked

Sam looked at his daughter and smiled at her

"Well when it's me and you here that's fine. Any other time until Jules and everyone else finds out you call me 'Sam'. Sam said

"Okay"

"Now you get some sleep. You and me have work in the morning."

Sam got up and kiss Jessica on the head but before he left Jessica said something for the first time that made his life all the more important

"Dad" Jessica said

Sam then turned around and started crying and smiled at Jessica

"Yes Jessica?" Sam asked

"I don't want to be alone tonight. Can you stay with me?"

Sam nodded and came back to the bed and climbed in next to his daughter. He held her so tight that it made Jessica feel safe with her father around. Then Sam got up and got his dogtags out and snapped one of them off and made a necklace for Jessica.

"What are you doing?" Jessica asked

Sam then put the necklace around his daughter's neck

"This is to let you know that no matter where I am. Alive or dead. I will always be there with you. No matter what." Sam said

"Thank you. I love you, dad"

"I love you too, sweetheart"

Sam with his daughter as long as he needed. His life was all the more important now he knows Jessica is his child. However the both of them kept this hidden from Jules. They'll tell her when the time was right. For now this was a father/daughter moment that they did not want to ruin.
