Epilogue

20 years later we see Jason and Liz dancing together.

Liz: Hey Jase, we proved everyone wrong. They all told me it wouldn't last. Look over there at Makena and Justin. Jase did you think when you first saw him that one day he would be our son in law?

Jase: No idea but look at how happy they are together. To think my daughter is now the daughter-in-law of the all time best country music singer Bryan White.

Liz: Well our Son is his son-in-law. Who would have thought that Bryan and Erika would have a girl and name her Caroline Elizabeth? I heard Bryan talking about wanting to marry Joshua off to Lila.

Jase: What does he want all my kids? I'll just give them too him. I could use our penthouse back to just us. Me walking around in my boxers again. That would be great.

Liz: Me walking around nude. We would never leave the penthouse. Anyway, go make your speech daddy. Your daughter asked if you could.

Jase: I guess I should. He goes up and gets the microphone.

Jase: Makena, Justin, I wish you all the happiness that your mother and I have had our 21 years together. Who would have thought that me Jason Morgan would be honored with 5 wonderful kids and the best wife that anyone could ask for. Lila, you are the next oldest and you go to college in the fall. Stephen, you are a junior in High school next year, and Audrey you are a freshman. Don't worry your big brother will be there to protect you.

Stephen: No I won't I don't want my little sister tagging after me again.

Jase: Yes you will and you will love it because you are her big brother. Just think, you will get to threaten any guy that hits on your little sister. Stephen grins. Anyway, Makena, I wish you and Justin all the best in life. I know you and Justin are going to be living in Nashville and it kills me to have both my kids so far away with Jay living there too, but you guys no longer need your daddy to kiss the tears away. My kids are growing up and soon it will just be Liz and me alone in the house. We never really had that. I don't know if we will be able to handle it, I mean I am so used to five kids running around there I don't know if Liz and I will be able to stand the quiet. Anyway, Makena, you know if you ever need to talk your mother and I are right here. SO is Uncle Sonny and Aunt Carly. We all love you. To think, the guy that sang at my wedding reception is now my daughter's father-in-law. Bryan, Erika, I never thought when we met 21 years ago that our kids would be getting married to each other and we would officially become family. Makena, Justin, I wish you all the best.

Liz walks up and takes the microphone.

Liz: Makena, Justin, I wish you all the happiness that your father and I have had in the past without all the drama. Your father and I were very stubborn people and our happily ever after was a long time coming, but we finally got it. My speech won't be as long as Jason's was but I wish you all the best in life and I am always here if you need to talk. Either one of you. Justin, I got the privilege of watching you grow up, I know you will take care of my daughter and treat her with the respect she deserves. Liz gives the Microphone back to the singer.

20 years later.

Jason Morgan sits beside his wife. She is resting again. For the last few months Jase has known her time was coming. The breast cancer had been getting worse. He lays his head down beside his wife. The tears start to roll.

Jase: Dear God, please take her before the pain gets too bad. Her time is up. I know it just like you do. I just don't want her to suffer anymore. She has suffered enough in her life. He looks at Liz, and notices her breathing has calmed. He stands up and leans over her. He kisses her lips. Bye Dear. I'll see you soon. Liz passes away. Jason starts crying.

Lila: DAD!!!!!  She walks in to her parents room. Dad, is she?

Jase: Yes dear, just a few minutes ago. Go call and I will start making the arrangements and call the rest of the kids. He lets go of Liz's hand. Lila runs across the hall.

Lila: AUNT CARLY, UNCLE SONNY!!!!!!!!

Carly: What's wrong Lila?

Lila: Mom just passed away with dad beside her.

Carly: Ok, I'll get Uncle Sonny and we will be over in about 2 minutes.  Carly runs up the stair.

2 weeks later.

Jason lies down in bed. He looks at his and Liz's wedding picture.

Jase: Oh Liz, how I miss you dear. I was supposed to go before you. I haven't done very well the last two weeks. Jay is worried about me. I don't want to go on without you. I love you and my life is nothing without you. He sets the picture back down on his bedside table where it has been since the day Liz died. He turns the light out and closes his eyes for them to never open again. It is often said that Jason Morgan died of a stroke. Everyone that knew him though knows the truth. He died of loneliness. They buried him right next to Liz in the cemetery and often all 5 of the Morgan children swear they can see their parents looking down from heaven hand in hand smiling.

The END!!!!!!!!!!!
