Port Charles
Curtis and Elle's house
When he woke up there she was with her head on his chest curled up next to him it made him smile part of him didn't want to move. And when he went downstairs part of him wished he hadn't there was the police trying to search his house which he wasn't going to allow.
He didn't need them finding Sam even though she was proven innocent they all knew she could be arrested. And that they wanted to avoid as he made his way back upstairs only to find them both up from their nap. Secretly wishing they were still asleep so he could just slide back in next to them.
"I see you guys are awake" Curtis said with a smile, yeah you're son wouldn't let me sleep so I hit him with the pillow. Then he hit me back and said it's wake up time mami" Elle says, outsie Daddy" Pax asked. " Sure we can go outside if mommy goes outside with us" he says wiggling his eyebrows.
She smiled as Pax tried to copy Curtis" Please mami I go outside in pool"he says only making her laugh more. " Yes please mommy you will like the new bathing suit I got you it matches your eyes"Curtis says. With a grin on his face as they both looked at her with pleading eyes" fine but i'm wearing one of my bathing suits. Because whatever you got me probably not appropriate for the children and Sam's parents" she says.
Throwing his arms in the air"YES he said as " Pax what you think celebration dance' he says getting up dancing. While Pax stood on the bed dancing as well" you too look silly" Elle says, watching Pax copy everything Curtis did. None of them new Stella was watching from the doorway smiling to herself happy that her nephew found a place he really belonged.
When they stopped Pax started to giggle as Curtis smiles" how about we give mommy some hugs get her Pax" Curtis says. As Elle jumps off the bed taking off to the closet as they ran after her Pax stood in front the door"mami abierto" he says. When she pushed it open neither saw her sneak to the bathroom covering her mouth so they wouldn't hear her laughing.
Curtis looked at Pax"What do you think we should go in there and tickle Mommy" he asked the toddler. Who turned to him saying the same thing while she changed in the bathroom "Daddy mami not there Mami es Pax open" he said. That's when she started laughing making them turn around"daddy look les go"Pax says going after. As Curtis watched the toddler go and tickle her and he did making her laugh when there was a knock.
Svetlana peeked her head in"Hi Nena can i talk to you for a moment" she says looking up from tickling Pax. "Hey baby what's up, Pax go with Daddy and change into your swim trunks mami will be right out okay"Elle says. "Titi Lana" Pax says running to her as she picks up kissing him"Hi baby boy why dont' you go with your daddy and i will come out into the pool with you guys" Lana says.
As the boy shook his head as she put him down Curtis looked at her then Elle she waved it off as he left closing the door behind him. "Hiro told me what happen and i came to check on you me more then anyone else in this family knows exactly what your going through. I have been there but you know what happen my womb was destroyed before i was even.
Old enough to consent and they didn't care ever time someone touches you everything in you cringe. Every time you close your eyes you see it and you smell it, i know this isn't your first time you came close to someone taking advantage of you. But I will put that on my life you will never know what that is and i know in your head you think the worse case scenario.
Elena i need you to hear me it didn't happen you have a great guy that is literally perfect for you if i made him myself. Baby you are fierce and strong and protective because even now your concern isn't you it's an eight year old boy. Whose on his way to being okay and that's because you made it that way you put his fear to bed.
Now i have to put yours to bed no one and i mean no one is ever going to hurt while i breathe gods air. Do you hear me now be your beautiful self babes i know your seeing Ramy but i know she doesn't come cheap either. If your angry come to me let's get your swagger back and go boxing with Kat" Svetlana says with a grin.
Making Elle smile"Diablo Muchacha my bill is so high and you talking about the woman who spent 10 grand on a pair of shoes" Elena said. As they laughed "Your going to be okay because i pull my strength from you because everybody in our family knows you hold more of it then anyone else. Because my big sister is a fucking rockstar" she says, your friends were here looking for you" Elle said.
Lana smiled "Yeah i know i'm giving them the run around because they assume i took Carly even though i did they have no proof of it. That they will never find anything and Corinthos's word doesn't hold water then he would have to say what he did. And you know he will never do that so he will be keeping quiet and with Jason in the hospital.
His organization is about to be easy pickens which i doubt because baby girl is about to claim her spot" she replied.
Outside
"Hiro you staying i could put some steaks on the grill for you" Sam says, as they watched Antonio swimming with Danny on his back. As Curtis sat talking with Drew and Julian with Scout and Pax sat near them playing while Stella and Alexis talked. He smiled"I remember that was me with you and Elle on my back yeah you can throw a couple steaks on there" he replied. Sam looked over"yeah i remember or you teaching me how to take apart the engine in Santi's mustang" she says laughing.
That's when he laughed" that fool would get so pissed i know everything you've been through and in the last decade or so. I watched this fool hurt you and Titi kept saying we have to respect your want for you life and wasn't that i didn't respect you. It was that i didn't respect him because he never put you first and he never honored your heart.
And when you lost little Danny because of him Titi begged you to come home and you wouldn't. I hated every moment of it because we all know you deserve better then to be last on somebody's list. You deserve someone like Drew" Hiro says as she smiled up at him"i love you to Hiro that's the most you've said in a long time" she says laughing.
Just then Elle and Lana came out the house in their bathing suits" Okay people can we eat because i'm hungry" Elena says. "Of course i have one with your name on it here's to our last meal here in Port Charles Mom, Dad your always welcomed to our house"Sam says. "You guys are leaving so soon why"Alexis asked, Mom that was a close call today and if they were able to come i here they would have arrested me" She answers.
"Your good Sammy you don't have to worry about nothing your golden, Nena what's up"Hiro says with a wink. "I'm good Hiro i promise I'm a work in progress babes" Elle responds as he nods his head a Lana. "Elle do you remember when we use to carry us on his back when we were younger and we were first learning how to swim. He would carry us on his back then have us swim and every time we would start to drowning he would pick us up.
And put us on his back and then have us try again" Sam said with a smile, "Hiro i think that was a metaphor for you always carrying us" Elena says. "Well that is what families do they carry you when you can't hold yourself up" he replied. "Aww Hiro you big softy no wonder Marisela loves you"Svetlana says pushing his arm"Aww big dawg aren't you just so nice" Antonio says.
"Shut up" Hiro says kicking Tony who just laughed,you use to carry them two at the same time" Alexis says. "Yeah he was a big boy mom just like he's a big man now his grandfather always tried to teach him me to mediate with him"Sam said. As he laughs" that was funny she could never sit still like she had ants in her pants she was always moving"Hiro says laughing.
As everyone laughed" i'm telling you he had to sit her down and be like just sit in complete silence. And Sam would no lie sit there for like 2 minutes and be like this is boring" Elena said laughing. When Sam pushes her gently "she had to much energy for him he you use to call her Yasei no mono in Japanese" he says. "What does that mean"Julian asked, with a smile "That means the wild one" Elle says as Hiro nodded in agreement.
ELQ
Michael came back with more questions then answers"Hello Junior" Olly said turning around in his chair. And the door closed making him turn only to see a big Asian man"What the hell are you doing here" Michael says. " Your still asking the wrong questions Michael i got here by walking right through the door" he says. All Michael could do was glare" Funny what do you want" he replied, relax junior i'm here to tell you the truth.
Because you know that wasn't the whole truth you know he needs you to see him as the victim and he's not. So do you want the whole story or not kid" Oliver says,"I wouldn't do that if i were you kid your blood spilling means nothing to me"Koji says. Taking the cellphone from him"what's it going to be" the older man said, i want the truth" Michael said.
"You want to know why someone would take your mother it's because your father hired a man to break into my sisters house. To kidnap Danny and Emily Scout but instead of doing that he beat my sister to a bloody pulp and was about to rape her. When Curtis shout threw that door and i thank god that he did but you already know what that's like right.
Because that's what happened to you in the joint right" Olly said as Michael shook his head"He...He..He..He wouldn't do that hire a rapist" Michael stammered out in disbelief. "You asked him at the jail today to tell you truth and he didn't he glossed over the fact of him really hiring that guy. Do you think someone as put together as my father wouldn't know who broke into my sisters house.
"No,No your lying he wouldn't do that" he says still not believing him, Oliver nodded his head"You don't believe me go ask your Uncle Jason. I heard he's awake now so go ask him but remember his first and always job is protecting your relationship. With the man who murdered and took you from your real father Michael look him in his eyes and see if what i told you was true" he says getting up and leaving.
As Michael sat in shock before going after him but he didn't see them all he heard was the elevator closing. "He needed answers so he had to go see his Uncle who he new would never lie to him he always told him the truth.

Putting a smile on his face"well that's good do you think he's up for visitors" Michael asked, from you sure he needs a pick me up he's in room 4113" she replies. As he nods his head "Thanks Grandma" he says then making his way to the room.
When he got there he stopped and listened" Yes i'm sure he's got learn the hard way he hits us harder we get him back harder"Jason says. Max and Milo looked at each other then him" Boss do you think that's a good idea we have no allies in this and we are backed in a corner" Max responds. "She attacked me in my office Max what do you think i should do let it slide" he said coldly.
Shaking his head"The attack on her is what started all this and no i'm not saying you do nothing but I'm just saying think" he replies. Just then Michael pushes open the door"So it's true you guys had someone attack his daughter and this is why my mom is gone" he said glaring at his Uncle. Someone he respected all his life Jason sighed"Michael it wasn't suppose to happen he was supposed to just get in and take the kids" he answered.
As Michael stood in shock and disbelief "Umm we are going to let you guys talk" Max says pushing his brother out of the hospital room. Not wanting to be there because they could tell by the look on Michael's face it wasn't going to be good.
