CHAPTER TWENTY- A PROBLEM
Eddie hadn't realized she had zoned out until Jamie said "Eddie can I ask you a question"
"Sure" Eddie said
"Why did you put the job before the kids, I wouldn't of cared if it was just me but there were kids involved" Jamie said
" I didn't do it to move up I did it to help return those children to their families and to stop more children from being kidnapped and used in horrible ways Jamie" Eddie said
"I understand why you did that but you could of told me Eddie" Jamie said
"It won't happen again and what's wrong Jamie you look super pale" Eddie said
"It better not Eddie and I'm fine but I have to go take Elliott to the doctors we have to get his results back from a few tests" Jamie said while trying to hide the pain and with that they went to the doctors office.
When they left the doctor's office they found out Elliot does have a heart problem which made Jamie feel a little bit uneasy and than Jamie remembered he had a doctor's appointment for himself in an hour so he told Eddie he would take them back to the house while he went into the city for his appointment. After dropping Eddie and Elliot off Jamie had a million things running through his head about what the result would come back as. Before Jamie knew it he was in the city pulling into the doctor's office. When Jamie entered the office the nurse said "hello Mr Smith the doctor told us to tell you to go right in"
"Thank you " Jamie said
After sitting in the Dr. Amaro's study for thirty minutes the doctor walked in and said "hello Mr Smith we have your results" Dr Amaro said
"Okay let's hear them if there is any good news can you please tell me that first" Jamie said
"Well Mr. Smith you do have testicular cancer but we can treat it since it is only stage one" the doctor said
About two hours later Jamie pulled into the garage in New Jersey and entered the house and yelled "I'm home" and with that the kids came running yelling "Daddy" and Eddie had Elliot in her hands and Jamie said " Eddie how about we take Elliot into the playroom to play with the other kids while me and you talk." Jamie said
"Sure" Eddie said and then she took Elliot into the playroom and met Jamie in the kitchen.
*What's wrong" Eddie asked
"I just find out bad news Ed" Jamie said
"You me anything Jamie" Eddie said
"I have stage one testicular cancer but the doctor said it can be treatable but I won't be able to do what normal activities like take care of the kids but I'm wondering of you could help me out." Jamie said
"Oh my God Jamie does your family Know, I will help you out" Eddie said
But before Jamie could say another word his phone rang and it was the doctor . After a thirty minute conversation with the doctor Jamie hung up the phone and said "Eddie that was the doctor he said the reran the results and I have stage two testicular cancer but everything will stay the same just with more treatments at a higher dose"
"Oh my God Jamie" Eddie said
"Eddie I love you I know this might be a little bit too soon but will you join us on the trip to Mexico we our leaving tonight also Nicki is going."Jamie said
"Sure and I love you too"
MEXICO
When they arrived to Mexico the bonding of Jamie and Eddie started to happen by the time the two week vacation was almost over the two were back to the bond they had before this incident happened and on the last night there they all went down to the beach.
"Eddie we should get married tonight "Jamie said
"Jamie what is it will you having us running away to get married again for remember how the last marriage ended who am I kidding yes" Eddie said
"By the way you will become Eddie Smith not Eddie Reagan because I'm currently not using the Reagan name because of what happened I also found out the family is kinda distancing themselves from what Erin told me Pop's is thinking about moving up North with me to help take care of the kids even known we are about to get married we really do not need the help from him since I already have a nanny and everything. I might just allow him to into one of my houses in warmer climate or to another one near or in the city it's up to him" Jamie said
"Why is everyone distancing themselves from Frank? Why are we not going to use the name Reagan? Jamie, how many properties do you even own?" Eddie said
" Because he knew about the undercover work and did not let on to anything he could of said something that would not of ruined your cover. So the family is kinda upset because he could of prevented the whole thing with me and the kids leaving without a trace just think if I did not get in that accident then you guys would of never have found us because before the accident happened I was going to come down to Mexico board a plane and leave the country for good and never look reason why I am not using the name Reagan is because I told my Dad I am glad that the kids and me do not go by the name Reagan. Also I own a few dozen properties throughout the country and a couple out of the country anything else?" Jamie said
"Nope" Eddie said
"Then let's walk to the pier down they way and get hitched so we can fly back home" Jamie said
The Pier
When they got to the Pier Eddie saw the Pier lights on but at dim setting with the Justice of the Peace at the end of the Pier waiting for them.
"You ready to go and become Mrs. Smith." Jamie said
"Yep I am" Eddie said with a smile on her face
When they reached the Justice of the Peace they were both smiling from ear to ear which Jamie had not done since the fight he had with Eddie a few months before she went undercover
"Do you Edit Janko-Reagan take John Smith to be your husband and do you John Smith take Edit Janko-Reagan to be your Wife until death does you part." he said
" We do" they both said
"You may now kiss the bride" he said
When Jamie and Eddie kissed both of their hearts slowly started to mend from the pain of being apart. The next day everyone started to get ready to leave Mexico and go back to Jersey.
The Plane
After boarding the private jet Jamie owned and once they were in the air a conversation began.
"Jamie can we talk?" Eddie said
"Sure" Jamie said
"Where our we going to live when we get back to New York since I am still working with NYPD Currently but I am only on a Leave of Absence." Eddie said
"Well Eddie I was wondering if you would Leave the NYPD for are family. We have way more than enough money to raise the kids Eddie, Also we would have to live apart again because you would be in the city and I would be way up North about five hour or more road trip to get to the city. Also what happens if you really die this time how do I explain that to our children again. Also I am planning on changing y name from John Smith to Jamie Smith and by the time we get off this plane oit will have been changed." Jamie said
"I am okay with the name change, and I get where your coming from about e leaving the job but I love my job Jamie. But why can we not live closer to the city?" Eddie said
"Eddie will you at least give it a shot if you do not like it then we will just have to live separately and pray to god that you do not get hurt . Maybe allowing you back into my life was a mistake. I am no uprooting my children so you can purse your job with the NYPD.! How about this you can pick right now what you want to do and what you pick your stuck with for the rest of your life! You can be a mother to my children and be my wife or just continue with NYPD you pick !" Jamie said
"Jamie what has gotten into your becoming super controlling and you are not the man I used to know and love. We used to arrest people who acted like this because half of the time they were being abusive to their children and spouse! Jamie I love you but I am not just gonna quit my job for you, how about you let me think about because its my life and not yours." Eddie said
"I have never put a hand on my children or my spouse and I have never been mentally abusive ethier. Also do you know what has even gotten into me is raising four children well dealing with this health problem, along with family problems. Plus Eddie I became a widow because we thought you were killed and at first they thought I was responsible because we were not living together. I will comprise with you, after one month of trying it your way we can try it my way for one month and then we can see where we should go from there." Jamie said
"Deal and you have help raising the kids the Nanny and the sitters and everyone basically in that small town you love so fucking much. Also I hate small towns Jamie. Also I want to tell you this the reason why I had you move back in was so you would become a suspect but you became one either way I am sorry about that." Eddie said
When the plane landed Jamie drove Eddie home then went to Erin's apartment building to take Nicki home since they lived in the same building. When Jamie pulled into the parking garage he was about to pull into Erin's guest parking spot but noticed a sliver Ford SUV parked there.
"Uncle Danny is here, Uncle Jamie you can just pull into my guest parking space" Nicki said
"Okay, do not tell anyone about me and Eddie I need to tell them" Jamie said as he pulled into the guest spot
"Okay" Nicki said
After getting the bags out for Nicki then Jamie started to get the kids out of his Chevy Tahoe and then they head to the elevator. Jamie waited as Niki got her mail and then they headed up to her apartment which was a small one bedroom apartment on the Second floor. When they enter the apartment Jamie saw that it was nothing like the apartments on the floor that Erin lived on and he made a mental note to find Nicki a better apartment.
"Jeez this is nothing like your mom's apartment Nicki, why did you pick this place there had to be better ones somewheres else" Jamie said
" I know there is but I like living in this building since I have my whole life and I could offered to buy one on mom's floor" Nicki said
"Are there any vacancies on that floor currently" Jamie asked
"Yes there is one currently vacant right across from mom's and I can not afford" Nicki said
"Well I can" Jamie said as exited the apartment and then he dialed a number on the phone and started to speak
When Jamie entered the apartment twenty minute later with grin on his face
"Nicki there's something on your door" Jamie said
When she went out to get what was taped on the door she entered the room with a confused face
"What is It" Jamie asked
When she opened the envelope up she found a card that read Thanks for coming to Mexico with us. Sorry about missing your college graduation and birthdays because i was gone so I got you something special. Love Uncle Jamie and the Kids Ps: I hope you like it and don't ever say I do not love you. Come and give me a hug so I can give you your gift. After Nicki read the card she went over to Jamie
"Here you go" Jamie said and handed Nicki keys and a credit card
"What these for" Nicki asked
"The keys go to your new apartment that is right across from your mom's and the credit card is good for finding stuff for it since you will need more stuff." Jamie said'
"Uncle Jamie thank you so much you did not have to do that for me" Nicki said
"Yeah I do since this apartment is not too great and it's the least I can do you just promise me that you will not tell your mom about anything I told you." Jamie said
"I promise" Nicki said
Then they headed up to Nicki's new apartment and checked it out and then Nicki headed over to Erin's
"Mom I am back" Niki said
"How was your trip" Erin asked
"Great Uncle Jamie is here. Is Uncle Danny here we seen his SUV in the guest spot so Uncle Jamie parked in my guest spot" Nicki said
"Yeah Uncle Danny and Pops are both here, since Pops is staying in the guest room since he does not want to live with Grandpa" Erin said
"Your back how was it" Danny said
"Did I hear that Jamie is here" Henry asked
"My trip was great and yeah Uncle Jamie and the kids our here right across the Hall" Nicki said
"Why is he across the hall" Erin asked
"He is in my new apartment he bought for me and before you ask I did not ask him to do that" Nicki said
Then they all went to the apartment across the hall and when they walked in they noticed Jamie was on the phone but he did not hear them come in.
"I don't fucking care how much it takes I just want it done and over without it leading back to me" Jamie screamed
As one call ended another one came in and he didn't even notice they were nearby
"Smith, how may I help you. Oh I see I understand but I'm currently out of town but the first thing tomorrow morning I will be on the Jet to Boston for his pre op. Thank you and can we make sure that the follow could happen back at home because of my treatment, Have a good day doctor" Jamie said after he hung up he noticed Erin, Danny and Henry plus Nicki were standing there.
"How much did you hear" Jamie asked
"The first phone call and the second one" Danny said
"Just ignore the first one" Jamie said
"Who getting surgery and what treatment" Erin and Henry asked
"Elliot has to get heart surgery"Jamie said
"The treatment is for my stage two testicular cancer"Jamie said
"Oh my God, when did you find out" Danny asked
"Before I went to Mexico with Eddie and Nikki plus the kids" Jamie said
"How do you like this apartment everyone and Pop's I would really like it if you moved in with us" Jamie said
"Young man don't you dare try to change the topic you went to Mexico with Eddie" Henry asked
"Well me and Eddie decided to get married again which it lasted basically one day we our trying a separation cause she won't leave the NYPD or the city and I want to live in upstate she doesn't so we our gonna give it her way one month and mine another month. Also she told me the real reason why I moved back in with her before she faked her death." Jamie said
"Wow" Erin said
"Why did you do this for Nicki and why you suing the NYPD" Erin asked
"I wanted to and It's to teach the commissioner a lesson" Jamie said
About half an hour later Jamie and the kids and Henry headed to Frank's to get Henry's things.
Frank's House
"Francis I am here to get my things" Henry said as he starred up the stairs but Jamie stopped him.
"I'll get your bags Pop's" Jamie said and then he went up the stairs leaving the kids with Henry
"Pop's you our really going to do this " Frank said as he enter the foyer from the kitchen
"Yes I am Jamie is gonna need all the help he can get because of Jamie has cancer and Elliot needs heart surgery" Henry said and that caused a pain in his face
"Pop's ready to go" Jamie asked
"You have cancer" Frank said in shock
"Yes I do Commissioner, now if you excuse me I need to put these bags in my SUV then I need to get ready to take my youngest to Boston for his preop. Goodbye" Jamie said then he ushered the kids out along with the bags.
"Pops what is the deal with him ever since this mess started he has changed." Frank said
'Francis, you knew about Eddie's death being faked you ruined a marriage that was supposed to be fixed but it was only fixed so Eddie could have some take care of the kids when she faked her death. Then the got remarried in Mexico to see if things would work out but it not doing so great. I need to get going if you need me I will be in Boston with Jamie and the kids. Take care of yourself Francis. Goodbye." Henry said and then walked out the front door and got into the Chevy Tahoe and left leaving Frank there standing in Shock from what just happened until his phone rang and the name of the caller was the Baker.
THE NEXT DAY
Jamie and Henry and the kids just landed in Boston for Elliot's pre op when they arrived at the Hospital the doctor told them that they could do the operation the following day. Then after two days of being in Boston they would be able to fly back home,and then the doctor would fly out for his follow up appointment and then they could come every six months for checkups.

Before they knew it was the morning of the operation. After they arrived at the Hospital they were taken back so Elliott could be prepared for the operation. After they took Elliot back to the operating room the had put Henry and Jamie into a private waiting room to wait.
Ten Minutes Later….
"How our the kids doing? Are they listening to you and tell them Daddy loves them and they will be back soon" Jamie said while on the phone with Nanny he hired to watch the triplets when he was in Boston.
"Jamie you need to stop pacing your gonna make a hole in the floor why don't you just sit down and we can talk" Henry said
One Hour Later….
The doctor came out and told Jamie and Henry that they could go back and see Elliot . After an hour or so of being back there Jamie sent Henry back to the house that he owned in Boston.
Two Days Later…

Upstate NY…
The family landed in a private airport near their main residence later that night they began the three hour long drive home. After driving for three hours Jamie pulled his Chevy Tahoe up to the front gate of the Smith Estate and then drove up the long driveway that lead to the house. After Pulling into the Garage he told Henry " When you go in I have you in the Suite above the garage. If you do not like the way it is now just let me Know and I will have the decorator come in and redo it the way you like. Sleep tight Pop's I will have the housekeeper take the bags in" Jamie said
"Thank you for allowing me to move in Jamie, and I will let you know how the room is and you better get some rest you little monsters and you to Jamie" Henry said as he headed into the house and up to his room. But little did he know that Jamie already had his room decorated in the style he liked it.
After the conversation had ended, Jamie had the housekeeper bring in the bags as he carried his sleepy children up to their rooms and took of their shoes and coats for them since he had put their Pj's and things on them after the got the plane. After turning on their nightlights Jamie went downstairs to check the doors and windows which he knew where already locked and dismissed the housekeeper after writing her a check for few hundred dollars since she had to stay later than normal. Then Jamie turned on the alarm system and went to sleep.
The Next Morning..
After talking with Pops about his room over coffee at 6 am. Jamie went upstairs to get ready for the day then he went and woke up the kids around 8 am and got them ready for the day. Then he took them all downstairs for Breakfast.

"Yeah I can, I was gonna be there either way because I have Elliot's follow up apt. See you then I guess" Jamie said
The City….
After talking with Henry they decided it would be best if Jamie and Elliot just went and Henry would stay with Mary, Joe, and Sophia. After Elliot's follow up appointment which went great and that they would have a check up appointment in 6 months. Then the next place they went was to Dana's office which just happened to be covered with the Press.
"Mr. Reagan why are you suing the NYPD" a reporter asked
"Excuse me I do not see a Mr. Reagan. Now I need to go see a friend about a partnership" Jamie said as he started to push through the sea of reporters.
"Sir,You are Mr. Reagan " Another Report said
"You must be Mistaken I am Mr. Smith the Head of the Owed Payments and Investments at Janko-Smith Investments and I am here to see a friend who works here " Jamie said and then he gave the signal to his team he hired when ever he was in the city and the came rushing over
