Back Again
Allie and Jason.
By: kelle24
After being on the ship for an immeasurable amount of time they had dropped Allie off when she was 21 years old in the rural town of Bangor, Maine. She had been in contact with her parents Charlie and Lisa, but she knew that she had to stay away from them. She couldn't let the government take her like they did so many years ago. She had changed her name just like her grandfather, Jesse, did.
While she had enrolled in college she met this young man who was the same age as she was and had been abducted too. She was in love with him and they were going to get married soon. She was so happy that she was going to live a normal life. Jason Cambridge was the man who she was going to marry and he was such a caring and loving man. She had met his parents and she liked them and they liked her.

Allie better known as Beth had been married to Jason for a year now and they were waiting for the arrival of their firstborn. Allie was due in two months and the happy couple was elated. They were going to have a little boy and had the nursery all done. The walls were done in a powder blue the border was planes and automobiles. The crib was situated on the far wall near the window and there was a rocking chair nearby and a changing table.
Allie wanted her mother and father to see their new grandchild once he was born, but she also knew that they had to be careful. They had already picked out a name for their son. Jesse Jacob Cambridge. Jesse for Charlie's dad and for Lisa's dad.

It was a bright sunshine filled day when Jesse Lee Cambridge made his appearance for the very first time. The boy cried lustily as he was laid in his mother's arms and then stopped when his bright blue eyes caught his mother's eyes. She was amazed at her tiny son and it stole her breath away.
Walking into the house after having her son she walked to the nursery and rocked her son. After she laid her tiny son in the crib she walked to the phone, picked it up and dialed a familiar phone number. She couldn't give word to her family, but she knew some people who would contact them as soon as it was safe. As she put it down the phone rang again.
"Allie."
"Mom."
"Yes, Honey it's me."
"How's the baby."
"He's so tiny and such a good little boy. I can't wait to see you both. How's dad?"
"He's fine. We'll get to you as soon as possible."

Charlie and Lisa drove up to Allie's house and got out of the car. They stared up at the white one story house with four bedrooms. It was perfect for a family that was just starting out. They were only sorry that they weren't there the day that their daughter got married.
Allie threw open the door as she saw her parents drive up and went out to meet them with the baby in her arms. They hugged and kissed and the proud grandparents took one look at the baby and fell in love with the tiny boy.
"We named him Jesse for your dad Charlie and his middle name is Jacob for your dad."
Just then Jason walked out and they were introduced to their daughters husband.
"How was your trip?"
"It was good."
They went in and sat in the living room to talk about everything that was going on in Allie and Jason's life. Lisa was holding her grandson and Charlie was watching them both.
"We've missed you so much. We're sorry that we couldn't make it to your wedding, baby."
"I understand."
All three of them went into the nursery where they watched the sleeping baby.
"Does Jason know about you? Does he know your real name?"
"He knows everything."
"Good, I'm glad."

Allie and Jason watched as Lisa and Charlie drove off and then turned to walk back into the house.
