It was a week before the wedding and everything was done on time. Alexis picked a beautiful wedding dress that fit her perfectly. If was lace and silk and was absolutely gorgeous. The bride's maids dresses were blue as were the groom's men's ties. When Sam saw her dad in his tux she thought he looked very handsome and couldn't wait till her mom and he saw each other on the big day. She couldn't believe that they were getting married. After all the time they spent apart, not even knowing each other and somehow they still they still ended up together in the end. Her dad had changed so much in the time that they had known each other. He was no longer the power hungry mod boos he was when the first met. He was a loving father and grandfather who loved Alexis enough to let it all go. Alexis was the happiest that Sam had ever seen her mom.
In fact, Port Charles in general was like a completely different place. With no more mob activity around them whole town was more at ease. People were still a little tense when Jason, Sonny or Julian walked into a room or they saw them on the street but Sam figured that that would go away once people started getting use to them no being in the mob. Sam and Jason could not be happier. Lila was having a lot of fun getting to know all of her siblings. But, Sam had noticed that Lila gravitated more toward Krissy. Kristina took the roll of big sister to heart with all three of her younger siblings but with Lila it was different. Sam didn't know if it was because she was both Lila's sister and her aunt or if it was because Lila saved her life but it didn't really matter Sam decided. Lila enjoyed her aunt roll as well. She loved babysitting little Rocco. She had been studding rigorously for her permit as well. It drove both sonny and Jason crazy and it amused Sam and Carly to no end. A little part of Sam was sad because she just got her baby back and now she was driving. Sam knew that she couldn't do anything about it and she was just so happy to have her back. Learning to drive was a huge milestone so Sam was grateful that Lila was home and could be around those who oved her while she was doing it. And on top of it all Lila was starting high school in two weeks. Lila was really excited to be going to a school instead of being homeschooled.
Danny was doing well also. They had a scare with him last week when Sam noticed a red spot on the back of his neck. Jason and Sam rushed him to the hospital but it was a false alarm. He had been at Lila's Kids that day and just had a little heat rash. It scared Jason and Sam within an inch of their lives but they were so thankful that the cancer wasn't back. Jason not being here when Danny had went through this before really weighted on him. Even though Sam told him that there was no reason for him to feel guilty a part of him still did. His son had been sick with cancer and he wasn't there. But when Jason looked at Danny he was always hit with the fact that he survived it. His son, at the age of one, beat cancer. He was beyond thankful for that.
Things had gone very well since Jason had returned to them and Sam was grateful for that. Especially now. Considering Sam was sitting on her and Jason's bed waiting for the timer to go off. She hadn't said anything to anyone about it. Not even Jason. She wanted to be 100% sure before she did. Jason was at the garage and wasn't going to be home for another couple of hours. Sam had been feeling sick that morning so Jason told her to stay home. She did but the first thing she did after Jason left was call Dr. Lee and see if she could be seen this morning. She wanted to get a blood test done to be absolutely sure. Dr. Lee told her that the lab wasn't busy today so she could have the results in less than an hour. But Sam, being Sam, didn't want to wait. She stopped at a drug store on the way home and bought five pregnancy tests. Just to be sure.
Sam heard the timer go off and it startled her. She takes a deep breath and heads into the bathroom where the test are sitting on the counter. She stares at herself in the mirror. "Stop being so chicken. Just look down." She scolds herself. She closes her eyes and looks down. She peaks through one of her eye lids and focuses on a test. Pregnant. Her eyes pop open and she looks at the next one. Pregnant. Pregnant. Pregnant. Pregnant. They all said pregnant. Sam was pregnant. She and Jason were going to have a baby. Sam feel the tear well in her eyes as her smile widens on her face. She was in such a happy daze that she almost missed hearing he cell phone ring. She runs to go and pick it up. "Hello?" Sam answers.
"Sam? This is Dr. Lee. I have your test results back." She explains.
"And?" Sam asks.
"Congratulations. You're 6 weeks pregnant." Sam closes her eyes as the tears fall freely down her cheeks. "Thank you. Thank you so much Dr. Lee" Sam whispers.
"You're welcome. And again, congratulations." They hang up and Sam goes back into the bathroom to stare down at the tests. She places a hand over her stomach and smiles. Now she had to find the perfect way to tell Jason.
Jason pulled into the drive way and shut off the car. He got out and opened the back seat door and helped Danny out. He had just picked up Danny from preschool and Danny was telling his dad about his day. He had made necklace in arts and crafts for Sam. he was excited about showing her. "Do you think mommy with like it, daddy?" he asked his dad.
"She'll love it buddy. Your mom loves all of the jewelry that you make her. They are her favorite." Jason was anxious to get inside too. When Sam got sick this morning he didn't want to leave but Sam had insisted. Morgan and TJ couldn't run the shop by themselves and it would be too much for Hayden to have to deal with. She would already be shorthanded with Sam not being there and Jason agreed. But he made sure to text and call her throughout the day. Jason and Danny walked into the house and Jason instantly smelled garlic. "Mmm yummy." Danny said and took off into the kitchen. Jason sets Danny's backpack by the door and follows his son. When he walks into the kitchen he freezes. His wife was cooking. Chicken fettuccine alfredo and garlic bread. The last time she tried that she almost set the penthouse on fire. But what was really surprising was the fact that it smelled amazing. Like she knew what she was doing.
Lila was chopping but vegetables for a salad. He walked over to his daughter and gave her a hug and a kiss. "How was your day?" he asked her.
"Great. Papa and I got everything I needed for school and Krissy and aunt Maxie are taking me shopping tomorrow for school clothes. But I don't know why. I have more than enough clothes to wear." Lila said.
"I wouldn't argue with Maxie when it comes to clothes. It's easier if you just give in." Lila sighs loudly and Jason laughs. He walks over to Sam who it putting the necklace that Danny made her on. "It's beautiful, baby. Thank you." She pulls him into a hug and kisses his face. He squeals and runs over to his sister to see when she is doing. While she is distracted Jason takes a look at the pot with dinner in it. "Hey! Stop that." Sam swats at him.
"What?" He asks innocently. "Don't you what me. I know what you are doing. My dinner is perfectly eatable, thank you very much." Jason looks at her sheepishly and says "Sorry. But I had to make sure that you weren't going to poison out kids." Jason laughs when Sam slaps at his stomach. He catches her by the arm and pulls her to him. He gives her a kiss and asks "How are you feeling?"
"Better. Why don't you go and shower and by the time you are done so should be dinner." Sam tells him. "I'm fine. Is there anything I can do to help?" he asks. "Yes. Go shower. No offence Jason but you stink. And while normally I find you very sexy when you are all sweaty, the oil grease on your hands is not."
Jason laughs at his wife and say "Alright, I'll go shower." He heads out of the kitchen and walks up the stairs to his and Sam's room.
Sam shares a look with her daughter and a few second later she follows Jason. She makes her way up the stairs to their room and sees her husband only made it a few feet inside the room before he came to a stop. His eyes on their bed. The bed that is covered in baby clothes. With a big teddy bear in the middle holding a white satin pillow with the lettering "Congratulations Daddy" on it. Sam stayed behind Jason for a few more seconds before she moved in front of him. "Jason?" she says in a low voice. He never takes his eyes off the bed but he whispers "Does this mean what I think it means?"
Sam smiles softly and says "I went to the doctor this morning and she confirmed it. I'm pregnant." She barely got the words out before Jason was pulling her into his arms and kissing her. Jason wrapped his arm around her waist and the other around her neck. Jason continued to kiss her until they both needed air. They pull apart and his arm that was around her waist moves to her front and he places his hand on her stomach. "Are you ok? Have you been sick anymore?"
"I'm fine. I haven't been sick anymore today. I have my first ultrasound in 2 weeks. Dr. Lee said I am six weeks pregnant." She smiles at him. Jason runs his hand through her hair and says "You're pregnant. We are going to have another baby." He smiles back at her. "Yeah we are. And I have a feeling it's going to be a girl." "How can you be sure?" "I'm not. It just a feeling I have. And I was right the last two times." "You thought Lila was a girl and Danny was a boy before you found out for sure?" he asked.
"Yeah. It's just a feeling that I had. My mom calls it mother's intuition. I just knew that Lila was a girl before we had the ultrasound done. And with Danny the same thing. I knew he was a boy even though I never found out until her was born. And I know that this one is a girl." Sam says.
"Just like you thought we would have." Jason says, remembering the time that Sam shared with him the life she always envisioned that they would have. "Do you still want…?"
"Absolutely. I want to wait until we know for sure it's a girl to tell your mom but yes, our daughters name will be Emily. Emily Alana Morgan." Sam smiled at her husband. Jason looks down at his wife and says "Are you sure?" "Yes. Alan would have been a great grandfather and this way we can keep a little part of him around in our daughter. As well as Emily." Sam raised he had to stroke Jason's cheek. Jason places his hand over hers and pulls it to his mouth. He kisses he palm and pulls her back into his arms.
