Surprise! A third chapter today. Why? There will be no update on Sunday because it is Mother's Day and I just found out I will not be home. Tomorrow I will give you another update before I leave. Just so you know it is the Wedding!


Chapter 43

"Cameron!" Elizabeth called up the steps to her son. "We need to leave." Walking back into the living room she surveyed the men in the room. Tonight she was staying at the Quartermaine's because tomorrow was her wedding day. They'd had the rehearsal yesterday followed by dinner at the Quartermaine's. She and Cam were sleeping at the mansion tonight. She would be having her bachelorette slumber party while Jason had his bachelor party. The gals from the hospital were coming and so was Carly. She was bringing Morgan so Cam wouldn't be lonely.

Walking slowly up to Johnny she looked her friend dead in the eye. "No brunette strippers."

"Why are you telling me?" He said feigning innocence.

"Because I know you too well OB. You have girls on order, none of whom had better be a brunette." She poked him in the chest to get her point across.

"Strippers are okay as long as they aren't brunettes?" Sonny asked Kate would kill him if he had a stripper at one of his parties.

"I trust Jason." Elizabeth said shrugging. "But I'm the only brunette he gets to ogle."

"There aren't going to be any strippers." Jason shot Johnny a dirty look and the rest of the guys pouted.

The front door opened and Emily pretty much bounced into the room. "Who's ready to party!?"

"Not us Jason just said we can't have any strippers." Johnny said poking fun at his friend. "How can you have a bachelor party without a stripper?" He might tease but he wasn't dumb he hadn't order any dancers. Kelly would kill him.

"I'm fairly certain it's illegal to have a bachelor party without a stripper." Emily said to her friend. "We have one coming to our party."

"What?" Jason's head whipped around.

"Blonde hair, blue eyes in a doctor's uniform, because we thought that would be funny." Emily watched her brother's eyes bug out.

"No." Jason said putting his foot down. "No strippers."

"It's a bachelorette party. You have to have a stripper. We went down and picked him out personally. You know he looks a lot like you." Emily said driving the knife in deeper.

"No stripper." Jason had his teeth tightly clenched.

Elizabeth was laughing so hard she had to hold her stomach. "Jason your sister is just teasing you. Cam and Morgan will be at the house so no one's taking off their clothes."

"I was having fun." Emily said to her friend. "Did you see how red he got?" Emily was laughing now too. "You are so easy."

"Aunt Em!" Cam ran in going right to his Aunt.

"Hey buddy, you ready for some chocolate cake?" She asked her nephew. Tomorrow he would officially become a Morgan just like Elizabeth.

"Give your dad a hug." Elizabeth instructed her son. When Emily came over they watched Cam and Jason. "I miss his curls." She said to her friend.

"They'll be back in no time." Emily assured her.

"Not if Cam has a say, he wants to keep his hair short like his dad." Elizabeth loved that Jason was Cam's hero, but she wanted him to grow his hair back.

"You should ask Jason to grow his hair. It won't be curly but it might make Cam want to grow his out." Emily suggested she missed the curls too.

Elizabeth pretty much zoned out as she thought of just how hot Jason would be with longer hair. That was a suggestion that merited more consideration. "Come on Cam, we have to get going." Elizabeth walked over to give Jason a hug. It was supposed to be short but neither one of them wanted to let go. They hadn't spent a night apart since August. "I love you." She whispered to him.

"I love you too." He said giving her a kiss.

"Oh for god's sake you'll see each other tomorrow." Johnny was getting nauseated.

"Leave them alone, they're in love." Emily teased making kissing noises.

Jason rolled his eyes but didn't let Elizabeth go. "I'll miss you." He whispered giving her another kiss.

"I'll miss you too." She said kissing him again.

"Stop kissin." Cam said. "I want some chocowate cake. They kiss all the time." The little boy didn't understand it.

The adults laughed. "You heard your son. There's chocolate cake to be had. Get you priorities straight woman." Emily told the couple.

"Have a good night guys." Elizabeth said as her son pulled her from the room.

"She'll be fine Jason. There are ten guards at the house." Francis had set up security himself.


Ric sat in his living room and enjoyed the silence. He had the whole house to himself. Alexis had called earlier in the day and she'd sounded just awful, he thought to himself grinning. When Kristina came on the line she said that her mother was having trouble adjusting to the new treatments. Ric gave his stepdaughter the right amount of sympathy before asking to speak to Molly. When Alexis died he was shipping Kristina back to her father. Once Sonny was dead the girl would go to boarding school.

He had a good talk with his daughter. Ric had been surprised by how much he missed the little girl. There was no doubt she was a wonderful child. She'd be a great big sister to Cameron and the other children he and Elizabeth had. He was hoping that they had at least three more.

Lorenzo had been in touch to say that Luke should be freed by the end of the week. Which was a good thing. If Lucky didn't start showing signs of improvement soon someone would suspect that he was still using. He needed to be out of rehab before that. Between Lorenzo irritating Jason and Lucky roaming around free Elizabeth should be sufficiently stressed enough to have a miscarriage. If Faith hadn't pushed Elizabeth down the stairs they'd already share a child. Hell they'd probably still be married.

Ric didn't regret much but he did regret his association with Faith.

This current plan he didn't regret, because it was going so well. Even with the occasional hitch. Even using Dante to get close to Emily was going well. There was some sort of dinner party at the mansion tomorrow and Dante had been invited to attend. It was most likely ELQ business if it was social then as D.A. he would have been on the guest list. Not going was fine with him, he didn't need to be trapped listening to Edward go on and on about nothing interesting.

A check of the time let Ric know he needed to get moving. He was flying into New York tonight. He was spending the weekend attending a law conference. Not to learn anything, but to make connections. The head of the New York bar would be there and Ric wanted to introduce himself. If he was planning on getting out of Port Charles then he needed to let others know that he was someone to take seriously. His bags were already in the car so he set the alarm and locked up. His chartered plane left in just over an hour.


The guys were spread out around the basement. Some were playing pool, others poker while a third group were wagging a life or death battle on the gaming system. Everyone was relaxed and enjoying the night. The laptop that Spinelli was never far from beeped. The hacker checked the message before walking into the pool room. "Stone Cold, the Loathsome Lawyer has left for New York."

"Okay." Jason took his shot before stepping back and grabbing his pint glass. It was just a happy coincidence that Ric was out of town for the wedding. Of course if he knew that Elizabeth was getting married tomorrow he would not be leaving. The vendors had all signed confidentiality waivers so everything was being kept quiet. Tomorrow after the ceremony photos would be leaked to the paper Edward owned. As well as an eye-witness account of an altercation between Jason and Lorenzo, that left the bride in tears.

He and Elizabeth were going to the cabin while Cam stayed at the mansion. During that week, Sonny was going to start working on Ric. Yesterday he'd finally told Jason what he had Spinelli doing. It was brilliant. Simple and brilliant. Ric wouldn't even see it coming. Best of all it would be his own words, from the various recording devices, that would bring him down.

"What did you get Elizabeth for a wedding present?" Francis asked his boss.

"The man just got her a half million dollar car, I think he's good." Johnny said knowing that Jason bought something.

All the guys were looking his way, even the ones out playing the video game. "I got her a boat." Elizabeth loved to be on the water.

"Like a sailboat?" Max asked taking his shot. He and Francis had come to a truce. Max had finally admitted to himself that Milo was right. If he hadn't let Sonny dictate what he could do in his love life then he would still be with Diane. If Francis screwed up then Max would certainly take advantage of the opportunity.

"No, a four bedroom yacht." Jason said lining up his shot.

"Seriously?" Johnny shouldn't be surprised.

"Yeah, it's docked over by Jax's yacht." The Australian had been very helpful in getting the vessel. He didn't particularly care for Jason but he very much liked Elizabeth.

"Did you name it?" Francis knew Elizabeth was going to love it.

"The Anima Gemella." Jason said smiling.

"The Soul Mate." Max said puzzled.

"Yeah." Jason didn't bother to explain to the guard. He could do romance with the best of them, when he told Elizabeth what the words meant she would love it.

"The rest of us don't stand a chance in the gift giving department." Johnny said shaking his head, although he had a dousy of a gift for Kelly come Christmas.

"It's not my fault you guys are slackers." Jason said smirking.

"Of course I'm sure that Elizabeth is getting all kinds of great gifts tonight." Sonny chimed in watching as his enforcer blushed. Given how the Girls' Night Out went they could only imagine how wild things were right now.


Elizabeth was laughing so hard she was having trouble breathing. She was in the middle of a pile of some of the most x-rated items she had ever seen in her life. Her friends must have cleaned out every adult toy store in the area. "You guys, Jason's gonna keel over when he sees this stuff."

"Hopefully not before he uses it." Carly said making Nadine crack up. The older blonde's gift to her friend was pair of handcuffs telling the room that Jason would know how to use them. The girls had howled with laughter.

"Me next." Emily said handing over a box. "I want you to know that I tried my best to not think about my brother as I was shopping."

"Thank you Emily." Elizabeth blew her maid of honor an air kiss. "Alright then."

"What is it?" Kelly leaned over and peeked in the box. She'd given Elizabeth a set of vibrators. Some of which seemed to scare her friend.

"A corset." Elizabeth held up the bright red lace item and the girls in the room applauded.

"You'll look great in that." Leyla agreed.

"I recognize the label, that's hand-made so make sure Jason doesn't rip it." Carly advised Elizabeth.

"Okay." It really was beautiful.

"After the baby." Kelly said when you were pregnant was not the time to be cinching your waist in.

"Incentive to get back into shape." Elizabeth looked at all her friends. "Thanks guys, this was the best party ever."

"Of course it was." Robin said grinning. "Look at all the loot you got." The petite doctor had gotten Elizabeth seven pairs of crotchless panties telling it everyone it was to save time.

"It was fun." Nadine said. She and Leyla had pooled their money and gotten Elizabeth several teddies.

"We should clean up." Elizabeth made sure to put the cards somewhere safe so she could send out thank you notes. Epiphany, Monica and even Skye had sent gifts despite not attending. Elizabeth felt bad that Skye wasn't with them. The woman was down the hall, but had opted not to join the group. She didn't want to ruin the night since Carly was in attendance. The two women had gotten in each other's faces downstairs in the main hall. Both promised to be well behaved tomorrow.

"It's late so we should turn in." Emily noticed that Elizabeth was yawning a lot. "Everyone has their room assignments right?" Everyone said yes as they moved to their rooms. Robin was heading home since she was so far into her pregnancy she felt better sleeping with Patrick. Carly was heading home because no one trusted her not to strangle Skye overnight.

"I'm going to go check on the boys." Elizabeth moved quietly down the hall and after making sure Cam and Morgan were covered went back to her room. She was tired but at the same time so excited. Tomorrow she was getting married to the man of dreams. She would be Elizabeth Morgan and she couldn't wait.
