Chapter 50 – Gift Wrapped

Lila handed Jason a present. "For you dear."

"Thank you grandmother and grandfather." Jason said.

Jason opened the box. "Wow."

"I hope you like it. They said it was the best." Lila said smiling.

It was a very expensive watch.

"Since I'm guessing you will be wearing more suits, I thought it was appropriate."

Jason smiled and gave her a kiss on the cheek. "It's very nice. Thank you."

More presents were passed out. Carly opened one from Nikolas. They were beautiful diamond hoop earrings. She kissed him and put them on before handing him a present.

"I hope I did my research right." She said softly.

He opened it and there was an antique Russian pocket watch inside that was the coolest thing he'd ever seen. "Wow."

"Supposedly, it dates back to when your family ruled."

Nikolas was just speechless. "This is the best gift I've ever gotten. Thank you." He said to a very pleased Carly.

Jason watched Elizabeth open a box.

"Jason." She said softly.

It was a white gold double heart with a small red glass heart that dangled into the center. Elizabeth grinned and got up. "It's beautiful."

"The red heart is a unique glass that is only made in this little town in Italy." Jason said quietly.

Liz gave him a kiss. "Put it on me please." She said turning and kneeling in front of him. Jason hooked the clasp and she turned around. "How does it look?"

He smiled. "Beautiful."

She got back up and grabbed a present and handed it to him. Jason opened it up and felt the leather and a huge grin appeared on his face. "Thank you."

"You'll have to break it in."

"Definitely." He said holding it up.

Michael handed him another present and he opened it and saw the gloves and smiled. He gave Michael a high five and looked over at Carly who smiled.

Irina was stunned how many presents she had to open and she was drooling over her new shoes. "You guys, this is too much. Thank you." She said wiping away a tear.

Johnny smiled and kissed her on the forehead. "You got something from me too."

Michael ran over with a box Carly had handed him. Irina smiled and took it. She opened it and saw it was jewelry and was really surprised. Taking the lid off, she gasped at the beautiful platinum bracelet inside.

"That is a claddagh bracelet. It's a celtic symbol that represents love, friendship, and loyalty."

Elizabeth spoke up. "You have not only proven your loyalty to all of us but you have also generously given your friendship to us as well."

Irina wiped her tears away as Johnny put the bracelet on her wrist. "I love it. Thank you." She said giving him a kiss before handing him a present which was season tickets to the Yankees. Sometimes, being a Cassadine did have its privileges. Nikolas had helped her get them and unfreeze her bank account.

Right when they were opening the last of their gifts, Patrick and Robin walked into the room with some presents.

Elizabeth got up and gave them hugs. Michael gave Robin a hug and was rewarded with a present. She chuckled as he enthusiastically ripped it open. Plopping next to Jason, he handed her a present. "That is for you and Patrick. Well, it's probably more for Patrick but I hope it's something you can both enjoy. It's a thank you for everything you've done for me and my men."

Robin smiled. "Thank you Jason."

She opened it up and chuckled. "Oh my God, I'm never going to hear the end of this."

Patrick knelt in front of her and when he saw what it was he grinned and almost cursed. "Holy sh…crap." He said holding up the Nascar tickets.

"There's more, Patrick you actually get to drive a car. They'll set up a time for you to take a few laps."

He stopped because the look on Patrick's face was priceless.

"And, Robin, you get a complete spa day."

She gave him a hug and kiss. "This is so unexpected."

"And, you can use the jet to fly there and back."

Patrick couldn't stop grinning. "You so rock. If you ever need neurological or dancing services, I'm your man."

Jason chuckled. "Good to know."

Jason had given all the women in the room a spa day.

They had finally finished unwrapping and had worked up an appetite.

Jason walked Johnny to the bathroom and waited. Elizabeth came up to him and slipped her arms around his waist. "I can't believe you sweet talked my grams into coming here."

"We had a nice long time and she knows how much I love you and would do anything for you. How can you argue with that?"

She rewarded him with a kiss. "You will get your final Christmas present tonight." She said with grin.

Jason smiled. "I don't mind saving the best for last." He said before kissing her. "You have one more present that is waiting for you at home."

She grinned. "You are the only present I need."

God he loved her. He looked over and grinned at Carly taking pictures of her and Nikolas with her camera. She made a funny face and Michael burst out in giggles. Soon he was running around the room taking pictures of everyone as they made faces.

They all played with Michael until it was time to eat brunch. Lila was brimming over with joy. Her home was filled with love and laughter.

Audrey sat down next to her. "You look quite happy."

Lila grinned. "I am. This is the best Christmas we've had in this house in years."

Audrey smiled.

"Elizabeth looks really happy. You must be pleased." Lila said softly.

"I am. Jason looks really happy too."

Lila nodded. "He's been through a lot the last year but he is so strong and I'm very proud of him."

"Merry Christmas everyone." Edward said holding up his glass.

Everyone returned the sentiment and then started to fill their plates.

IiIiIiIiIiIiIiIiIi

Nikolas pulled Carly aside. "Are you sure you don't want me to go with you?"

Carly shook her head. "Honestly, I don't want this to turn into a fight. So, it's probably best that I go alone."

He kissed her softly. "Be careful."

She nodded. "I will."

He watched her run out to the SUV and closed the door. Everyone was a little nervous about Michael going to Sonny's. When they pulled up in the driveway, Logan turned to look at Carly. "You okay?"

She nodded. "I'm fine."

Michael was holding his present for his father and was really excited.

Logan opened the door and they got out and Michael ran to the house. Mike opened the door and moved aside as Michael ran into the house.

"How is he?" Carly asked Mike.

"He's in pretty good spirits."

Carly nodded. "That's good."

"Carly?" Sonny called out.

Carly took a deep breath and walked into the house. She was surprised that he wanted to see her.

Stepping inside the living room, she chuckled as Michael was already ripping open presents. Apparently, he had gotten a second wind.

"Merry Christmas he said smiling."

"Thanks. Merry Christmas to you too."

"Have a seat." He said nicely.

Carly sat down and Mike took a seat next to her. She watched an overly bright Sonny playing with his son and looked up at Mike knowingly. Sonny was on an huge upswing which was usually followed by a very bad downswing in mood. She just hoped that they would be long gone before that started.

IiIiIiIiIiIiIiIiIi

A few hours had past and Michael was getting tired out. Sonny was also starting to look a little morose.

"Michael, why don't I take you home and you can take a nap."

"Awww mom." He said.

"Don't argue with your mother Michael." Sonny said.

"If you want to take him again this week, I can drop him off."

Sonny nodded.

"Did you have a good time with your dad?"

Michael grinned which made Sonny smile.

"Tell him thank you." Carly said.

Sonny smiled as Michael gave him a big hug. "Thank you daddy."

"You're welcome." Sonny said.

Michael gave Mike a big hug as well and then Carly headed outside.

Cody was glad to be going back to the mansion. They got a mile away when Max called him.

"Max?"

"Sonny is losing it. He's destroying the living room. I think we're going to have to subdue him."

"I'll talk to Jason. Is Mike out of the house?"

"Yeah, he's fine."

"Alright, I'll drop them home and I'll be right back."

Carly sighed. She wasn't sure what she was going to tell Michael.

IiIiIiIiIiIiIiIiIi

Patrick got up to use the bathroom. Tracy was walking towards him and he almost groaned. She smiled wickedly. "You really didn't think you were going to leave without giving me a hug, did you?"

Patrick sighed.

Tracy almost cackled at the look on his face. She gave him a hug and squeezed his butt as Patrick jumped and it was all she could do not to laugh. "Still firm." She said letting him go and then walking past him.

Jason had given her an extra spa day for the favor and she couldn't wait to cash it in.

IiIiIiIiIiIiIiIiIi

Jason opened the door to the penthouse.

Liz was so excited about getting her last present. "Okay, am I hot or cold?" She asked going near the couch.

Jason smiled at a memory of Michael playing that game and then said, "You are frigid."

Liz scrunched up her face and walked towards the kitchen.

"Burr." Jason said.

Liz grinned. "Fine, I'll check upstairs."

Jason followed her and she went from his room, to hers before checking the last bedroom at the end of the hall.

"Burning up." He said.

Liz pushed the door open and gasped. Jason had turned the entire room into an art studio. There were canvas, sketch pads, and paints littering around the room. And there was a couch along one wall.

Elizabeth jumped into his arms and kissed him hard. Jason lifted her up and she put her legs around his waist. He walked backwards to the couch as he sensuously kissed her mouth.

When he sat down, Elizabeth pulled back with a wicked look on her face and stood up. She started to seductively strip and Jason grinned with anticipation. When she got down to her underwear, she stopped.

"You can't stop there." Jason said almost pouting.

"You have way too many clothes on."

Jason smirked and quickly took of his boots and socks and then the rest of his clothes in no time flat. Liz grinned as she watched his cock start coming to life and she licked her lips and then slipped out of her bra and panties.

Falling to her knees she grabbed it and Jason groaned. She swirled her tongue around his tip and then flicked it over his ridge and Jason's hips bucked.

"What do you want Jason?"

Jason looked down at her with want. His eyes were intense but he didn't answer.

Liz let go of him.

"No." He said hoarsely.

She tilted her head and grabbed his cock again. "What do you want me to do with this?" She said stroking him up and down. Jason could barely focus. He could see the devilish look in her eye and he gave her one back. "Put me in your mouth—now." He growled.

A jolt went through her body. "Anything you want." She said before lowering her head down.

Jason watched her lick and suck him up and down and his body shivered. He fisted her hair and positioned her head the way he liked it and his hips rose up and his cock hit the back of her throat causing him to moan loudly.

"God baby, your mouth feels so good."

Elizabeth increased her pace and grabbed his sac and he knew he couldn't last much longer. His balls tightened as her tongue was doing exquisite things to his cock. "Elizabeth, I'm going to cum." He finally said almost painfully. She moaned and it sent shivers throughout his body and he erupted; calling out her name as Elizabeth stopped moving and drank her fill letting Jason pumped his cock into her hot mouth.

But Elizabeth didn't stop there. She kept sucking him so he would remain hard and she got up and climbed on his lap and kissed his wildly before she impaled herself on his throbbing dick. Jason grabbed her hips and slammed her down over and over as she plundered his mouth and soon they both came hard.

"Merry Christmas Elizabeth." Jason said softly.

"Merry Christmas baby." Elizabeth said back.

They stayed there for a little while longer and then he carried her to their bed.
