Chapter 29 - Reunited

Johnny sat on the couch waiting for Jason to finished getting ready so they could go talk to Sonny.

"I'm glad that he's finally awake." Elizabeth said.

"Yeah, although I'm sure that Jason will be glad when he gets released. He hates hospitals."

Elizabeth frowned. "Why?"

"Oh, lots of reasons. After his accident he was in there for a while and then there is Epiphany." Johnny said grinning.

"Who is Epiphany?"

"The head nurse at G.H."

"And why doesn't Jason like her?"

Johnny looked back at the stairs to make sure Jason wasn't coming and then back at Liz. "Let's just say they had a little incident courtesy of his friends."

Liz smiled. "Okay, this I've got to hear."

Johnny rubbed his hands together and told her what happened.

FLASHBACK

Jason looked up at Epiphany who was walking into the room.

"Okay Mr. Morgan, we are short staffed so I will be your nurse this morning."

Jason looked up at her. He was so sick of being in the hospital. He had crashed his bike and was unconscious for a few days and once he woke up, they made him stay for a few more.

Epiphany ignored his glacial stare. The man was gorgeous but always had a frown on his face. She didn't get it. Looking like that, he had to be getting laid so that couldn't be the problem. Grabbing a small container, she filled it with warm water and then placed it on a table before grabbing some soap and a washcloth.

"What are you going to do with that?" Jason asked.

Epiphany moved his bed down a little. "It's time for your sponge bath."

"What?" Jason yelled.

"Are you deaf?" Epiphany said with her hands on her hips. She was starting to question her participation in the joke that Robin and Johnny wanted to play on him. If only she hadn't lost that bet.

Jason stared at her for a minute. "No way—uh huh—no."

"Mr. Morgan, it's my job and what I am trained for."

"I don't care."

"It is part of your care that we keep you clean. Hospitals are germy enough. We don't need you getting an infection."

Jason was ready to bolt from the bed. He didn't care how much pain it would cause.

Epiphany grabbed the washcloth and started to wipe his face as Jason grimaced. She rinsed it and soaped it up and then started with Jason's arm. He was in pajama pants but she'd worry about that in a minute even though she knew he would stop her.

Jason stared at her the entire time and Epiphany glared right back. She started to wipe his chest. Jason pushed her hand away twice and she growled at him. It was the battle of the wills and Epiphany wasn't planning on losing because now he was just pissing her off. She knew Jason was used to getting his way and that just spurred her on.

She left the washcloth on his stomach and went to pull down his pants and Jason's eyes got big. "What—what are you doing?"

"What does it look like I'm doing? I need to do your lower half now."She said pausing to look at him.

Jason shook his head. "No—you are not—no."

Epiphany rolled her eyes. "I can guarantee you that I've seen it all before. There is nothing to be embarrassed about. I'm a professional."

Jason glared again. "There is no way that you are seeing my…my…."

"It's called a penis Mr. Morgan."

Robin was laughing so hard in the hallway that she slid down the wall.

"I know that." Jason said turning red.

"What exactly is the problem then?"

Jason stuttered and then grabbed the washcloth and Epiphany lunged for it and he held it above his head.

Ignoring the pain, Jason smirked. "Not so tough without your wash cloth are you?"

"Oh, it's on." Epiphany growled and then quickly leaned over his chest and grabbed it and they were both pulling it and in the struggle, she fell across his legs as Jason won.

"Ha!" He yelled.

Monica and Robin stood in the doorway with Johnny covering their mouths. Monica cleared her throat. "What in the world is going on in here?"

Epiphany looked up and Jason smiled. "Busted." He said as she quickly stood back up and then ripped her gloves off before straightening her top. "This was not in my contract. If you want him clean, you do it." She said stomping out of the room trying not to laugh.

Robin and Johnny couldn't hold it in any more and started laughing.

"Jason Morgan, do not terrorize my nurses." Monica said.

Jason made a face. "She was attacking me."

"With a wash cloth Jason? Honestly….." Monica said rolling her eyes.

He handed it to his mother.

"I guess I'll have to do it then." She said teasing him.

Jason's eyes were practically bugging out of his head. "Robin, help me."

"Oh no, I'm not giving you a sponge bath. Patrick would kill me."

"But you're a professional."

Monica chuckled.

"I'd be happy to call Courtney for you. I'm sure she'd jump at the chance." Robin said grinning.

Jason groaned. He'd rather smell and get an infection.

END FLASHBACK

Jason came running down the stairs and Liz quickly tried to recover. "What's going on?" He asked as he plopped down next to her and started pulling on his boots.

"Nothing." Liz said. "Are you going to be gone all day?"

"I'm not sure."

"Do you mind if I go shopping with Emily?"

Jason looked over at Johnny. He did feel bad that Elizabeth was in the house a lot. But, since they hadn't found Ric yet, he didn't feel that bad.

"I know Ric hasn't been found yet but please, I need to get out of here. It's either that or I'm going to skip taking off the rest of the summer and apply for a job."

Jason sighed. "I'll get it set up so you have extra guards. They have to stay close and no asking them what they think of your outfit."

Liz grinned. "Deal."

"And one more thing…."

"What?"

He went to the desk drawer and pulled out a credit card with her name on it and handed it to her. "It's on me."

"Jason…."

"Sorry, that will be a deal breaker. Let me do this for you." He pleaded softly before he kissed her several times.

Johnny grinned and shook his head. He knew that Jason was lethal in more ways than one and that Liz would probably give in. Damn he was smooth.

Flustered, Liz pulled back and just stared at him. "I—I don't know what to say."

Jason had such a sexy look in his eyes that Liz almost forgot Johnny was in the room and pounced on him.

"Say yes." He whispered before dipping down and kissing her again.

Liz shuddered and then just nodded as Jason smiled. "Love you." He said running out the door before she could change her mind.

"What just happened?" Liz muttered to herself as she stared at the card.

Sonny smiled as Jason walked in the door with Johnny.

"Good morning." He said.

Johnny smiled. "Good to see you boss."

"Likewise." Sonny said. "Have a seat."

They sat down and Jason took a deep breath and gave him the rundown.

"So, Ric is the last piece of the puzzle."

Jason nodded. "For now."

"Carly told me that Audrey and Lila took down Ric, Scotty, and the mayor." Sonny said grinning.

Jason chuckled. "They make a great team."

They were interrupted by Carly standing in the doorway with Michael. He had a huge grin on his face. "Daddy!" He yelled running towards the bed. Jason caught him and sat him on the bed.

"Remember what I said." Carly said smiling.

Michael slowly crawled up to Sonny and gave him a hug.

Sonny was overcome with emotion. "I missed you so much."

"I missed you too daddy."

He pulled back. "Daddy, I was at a lake with Lizabeth and Uncle Jason. And then I was on a big boat and there were dolphins."

Sonny grinned.

"And then we went to a real live castle."

Sonny's eyes grew big. "Wow, it looks like you had a big adventure."

Michael nodded. "I was scared that you went to heaven." He said looking down at the bed.

Sonny sighed and moved Michael's face up so he'd look at him. "I'm right here with you; where I'm supposed to be."

Michael smiled. "When are you coming home?"

"Soon son, I promise."

Michael turned to Jason. "Uncle Jason, where's Lizabeth."

"She's about to go shopping with Aunt Emily."

"Can I see her soon?"

Jason smiled. "Sure buddy. I'll bring her over to see you soon."

"Michael, it's time to go see Grandma Bobbie."

"Okay." He said before hugging Sonny again.

Jason picked him up and sat him on the floor and he took off.

"He's okay right?" Sonny asked Jason.

"There were some rough spots here and there but he's fine now. I think seeing you and knowing you'll be fine is just what he needed."

Sonny nodded. "Thank for taking care of him man. I don't think I'll ever be able to thank you enough."

Jason stood up. "You're welcome."

Johnny stood up too. "We have a meeting but we'll stop by later."

Sonny already was itching to get out of bed and back to work. But, his body was still pretty weak. They were going to wait until the next day to get him moving around again. His scans were coming back pretty good. The swelling was still going down and his blood pressure and lung saturation was good. Patrick was very pleased with how quickly his body was responding. Sonny was just glad that all his memories were in tack. He came very close to knowing how Jason felt when he woke up from his coma.
