Chapter 39- Dangerous Liason

Danny stared up at Jeff and Carolyn as he rubbed Scout's back. "You're Elizabeth's parents?"

"Yes," Jeff said. "You know her?"

Danny nodded. "She's marrying my uncle. Today… in a couple hours."

Carolyn placed a hand over her heart. "She's getting married?"

"Yeah…"

Jeff crossed his arms. "And just who is your uncle?"

"Jason Morgan," Danny said.

Jeff scratched his chin and squinted his eyes. "Morgan…. Morgan? Doesn't ring a bell."

Scout tugged on Danny's shirt. "I want to go home now… I want Mommy."

Danny sighed.

"Wait, wasn't Morgan Lila Quartermaine's maiden name?" Jeff asked.

Danny scrunched his face. Did Grandma Monica mention a great-grandmother named Lila…

"Danny, I want Mommy…" Scout repeated and started crying.

Carolyn bent over a little. "Are you okay, sweetie?"

Danny scooped up Scout in his arms. "I should get my sister home. She's just a little… scared."

"Can you take us to Elizabeth?" Jeff asked.

"Oh Jeff, no," Carolyn said. "Let's wait until after her wedding. I don't want to ruin it for her."

"Ruin it? I want to make sure this Jason treats her right," Jeff said.

"We can't just show up moments before her wedding. She hasn't seen us in over 20 years. They probably thought we abandoned them."

"Does this Jason treat her right?" Jeff asked Danny.

"Uhh… I think so now," Danny said. "That's a complicated question."

"We'll approach her after the wedding," Carolyn said. "We should at least give her that."

"So, are Steven and Sarah here too?" Jeff asked.

"I don't know a Sarah," Danny said. "But Dr. Steve is here."

Jeff grinned. "So, he made it through med school. He kept doubting himself, but I knew he could do it."

"Is there a place we could stay?" Carolyn said. "Just until after the wedding."

"Mommy…" Scout cried out again.

"Wyndemere," Danny said. "Scout, is it okay if we just take Elizabeth's parents to Grandma and Grandpa? You know Elizabeth… Cam, Jake, and Aiden's mom. Violet's aunt…"

Jeff and Carolyn's eyes grew wide.

"Okay…" Scout said in a soft voice.

"We have grandchildren…" Carolyn half laughed, and half cried as Danny led them up to Wyndemere.

Danny took them inside and found Alexis in her office.

"Hi Grandma," Danny said.

"Danny, Scout!" Alexis smiled. "It's so good to see you…" She gaped at Jeff and Carolyn.

"Grandma, they're okay…" Danny said. "Scout and I were uh… walking. Found them by the docks. They say they're Elizabeth's parents. Can they stay here until after the wedding?"

"Uh, well… we should probably confirm with Elizabeth," Alexis said. "We don't know what Valentin is planning…"

"But they escaped from his clutches," Danny said. "We can't just send them back…"

"I know but…" She looked over at them and smiled, then turned back to Danny. "We need to be careful… I want to confirm with Elizabeth."

Carolyn cleared her throat. "I understand that, but we don't want to ruin her wedding."

Alexis nodded. "Okay, well, Danny take Scout home. They can stay here for now."

"There were others that were locked up with us, and some we didn't see," Jeff said. "The girl is planning to send the rest. But there wasn't room in the kayak for more…"

Alexis cleared her throat. "Danny, please go home before your mom worries. I'll take care of this."

Danny groaned and carried Scout out to the hallway… he definitely wasn't expecting that. Cam and Jake were in for a big surprise. He passed by one of the common rooms where Kevin was sitting with Nikolas and Lulu.

"I miss her too," Kevin said. "Every day. But Nikolas is right, your mother wouldn't want you to give up, Lulu. Keep being a great mom to Rocco. And I'm sure you'll be reunited with Charlotte soon."

"I hope you're right," Lulu said. "But I keep breaking down in front of Rocco… he doesn't deserve that."

"I'd be happy to take Rocco for a day," Kevin offered. "It'll give you and Dante some time together. Same with you, Nikolas. Well, I know you have Alexis to help out. But she's running this island and I'd love to spend time with Spencer again. I've missed him. I still think of them as my grandchildren."

"I think Spencer would like that," Nikolas said. "I know he misses his grandmother."

"Rocco would like that too," Lulu said. "Thanks Kevin."

GHGHGH

Danny sat on the right side of the new church with his mom and sisters. Drew sat in the front row with Monica. Behind him was Michael, Jonah, Ned, and Brooklyn. At the far back was Jax, a still pale Carly, and Josslyn. On the right side sat Elizabeth's gram in the front row, with a bunch of doctors and nurses behind with Nikolas, Spencer, Lulu, and Rocco. Patrick, Robin, Emma, and Noah sat near the back.

Jason stood at the front with Father Coates and Cam and Jake beside him.

The music started as Aiden and Violet walked down the aisle. Violet, wearing a white frilly dress with purple lace, dropped flower petals along the way. They stood at the front of the left side. Everyone rose when Steve and Elizabeth entered the church, arms looped. Elizabeth's hair was done up with daisies in her hair and the veil hung behind her. Danny looked over at Jason whose eyes were tearing up.

Steve walked Elizabeth to the front and kissed her cheek. Then he sat beside Audrey.

"Friends, we have joined here today to share with Jason and Elizabeth an important moment in their lives," Father Coates said. "Their time together, they have seen their love and understanding of each other grow and blossom and now they have decided to live out the rest of their lives as one."

Danny turned his head just as the doors in the back of the church opened and Jeff and Carolyn slowly walked in. Both had changed into a suit and a purple dress. They looked at Elizabeth at the front and Carolyn's hand went over her mouth and she started to tear up. But Elizabeth's eyes were on Jason. Jeff and Carolyn quietly slipped into the back row on the left side to watch their daughter's wedding.
