Chapter 5: Remembering Old Times
A/N: Please review guys, it makes me really, really happy! I hope you guys like it! When you review, tell me what you like, don't like, or just to say hi! :) Please tell me who you would like me to focus on for a chapter on besides Sam, David, or Jake, and maybe I'll do a chapter on them or that family…but I ain't making any promises…LOL :)…otherwise take what you get. I just learned this but I say anyways a lot, and it's not even a word. Wow! In this chapter only Lucy, Simon and their families are in it. The rest will come in later. But right now I'm so confused I can't even begin to explain why. Oh, I'll TRY to refer to Lucy and Kevin's son Matt as Matthew so you won't get confused.

When they were at home, they finally remembered to call the rest of their clueless family.
Eric called his oldest daughter first. Lucy answered their phone, "Hey!" "Hey Luce, I have some really great news," Eric said nervously. "Okay, what is it?" Lucy questioned. Eric took a very deep breath and said quickly, "Sam's here." Lucy started to cry, "Daddy, he's at your house?" Eric shook his head not realizing that he was on the phone. "Dad, are you still there?" "Oh, yeah," Eric said. "We'll be right there," Lucy told Eric.
Meanwhile, Simon and Camrie were finishing feeding Jonathan, Gary, and Brandon. They didn't quite understand that their daddy used to have a little brother, or that he was kidnapped. They had never met Sam, and Camrie had never met Sam either. Simon wished his family knew his little brother, but theydidn't; they couldn't.
The phone ringing broke Simon out of his breakfast with his family. "Hello?" Heanswered. "Hi, Simon, how are you?" Annie asked excitedly. "I'm fine. Why are you so happy?" Simon said. "S…Sam's ba…back!" Annie said excitedly. "Wha…What are you talking about?" He asked. "He's here!" She said. Simon hung up the phone and shooed his family into the car.
Within minutes, all of the Camden family was there. Jake didn't exactly like "big family gatherings" because he felt like he kind of didn't belong, but he liked seeing his family anyway.
Lucy was the first to show up. She threw open the front door to her childhood home and was followed by Kevin, Caleb, and then Matthew.
Matthew, being the same age as Jake, remembered Sam quite well. Caleb was only two when Sam went missing, and he had heard about his uncle, but never really knew him well. Both he and Matt were like their mom, Lucy.
When they entered the house they were greeted with a warm welcome from, Eric, Annie, David, and Jake. Sam came around the crowd and eyed his sister. Oh, how she'd changed. He was never really close to Lucy, or Simon for that matter, but he had still missed them just as much as he missed everyone else in his family, except for David. He missed David the most. After he stared at Lucy for a while, Lucy wasn't going to take it any longer. She ran up to him and hugged him as tight as she could.
