No More Looking Back:

She couldn't tell how long she spent crying into his strong chest. "I-I can't believe this is happening," Sam cried, "Your here Jason! Your alive!"

In response, he hugged her tighter and pressed a gentle kiss to her forehead. At the same time they both turned their attention to Danny. Jason had his hand on the little boy's back, and hugged him just as lovingly as his mother.

Danny's eyes were fixed on the man's face, the face placed all around their home in pictures, the face his mommy always pointed to when she told him stories. He knew this man, he could feel it. His arm seemed to raise on it's own and he placed his hand on his fathers cheek. The natural reaction made the tears lingering in Jason's blue orbs fall. Sam smiled beautifully despite the rivers of tears falling from her eyes.

"I-I think someone wants his Daddy," she murmured, and Jason couldn't even seem to take his eyes off the little boy as he took the toddler into his arms. Jason wasn't blind to the fact Danny looked exactly like him, and it was startling, the resemblance. Was it possible for a nephew to look that much like his uncle? Jason was starting to doubt it.

Sam wiped the tears from her eyes and used the moment to really take in her husband. He was thinner then the last time she saw him two years ago, and his face was also flushed. Robin had mentioned he had a fever so Sam immediately placed her hand gently on his forehead, interrupting her two favorite boys staring contest.

She winced immediately, "Jason your burning up!" He rolled his eyes and gave a little shrug before reaching out and taking her hand.

'I'm fine,' he mouthed to her, 'Better, I'm perfect.' He moved forward and just as his lips brushed hers in the long awaited kiss they both craved, the door flew open.

"Jason!"

'Carly must have broken every every single speed limit to get here that fast,' Sam mused. Following behind her were Sonny and Michael.

Sam reluctantly moved slightly out of the way so Carly wouldn't push her over in her rush to tackle Jason. Said man used the arm not holding Danny to hug his best friend tightly.

While Michael stood near the door, a picture of awe and shock written on his face, Sonny approached with a large beaming smile as he patted his best friend on the back and rubbed Carly's back reassuringly.

"It's good to have you back Jason," Sonny managed to say.

"H-how are you here? Jason, I've missed you so much," Carly managed as she finally pried herself off him only for Michael to take her place.

"I-I've missed you like c-crazy Jason," Michael mumbled brokenly. Jason nodded, the only way he currently had to say 'I missed you to'.

"Jason is unable to talk since he apparently ripped a ventilator out," Sam explained and Sonny nodded since he heard Robin say that as well. She held out her arms and Jason reluctantly handed a sleepy Danny back to her. She hummed softly to him, before placing him into his stroller. She could tell by the face he made he wasn't to pleased with being taken away from Jason, something that put a smile on her face, but he was tired enough that he didn't bother throwing a tantrum.

"A ventilator? How did you survive? What exactly have you been through Jase?" Carly demanded, completely ignoring the fact he couldn't answer her.

With a roll of her eyes Sam took it upon herself to answer, "that's what I want to know, but it looks like we need to ask either Robin or Anna for now."

Sonny nodded in agreement while Michael pipped up, "right now, I think we should just enjoy the fact he's back!"

Jason nodded, before he took a seat on the hospital bed. While Sam moved over to sit next to him, "he's got a bad fever," she informed them. Carly reached over and felt his forehead and nodded as a worried expression formed on her face.

"Damn, Jason your ridiculously warm! Have they given you any kind of medication?!"

Jason gave a little shrug before nodding, downplaying his condition like always.

"I think Jason should get some rest," Michael advised, always the level-headed one in his family.

"Yeah Carly, it's pretty late after all," Sonny remarked casually, locking eyes with Sam and giving her a wink.
"We can come back tomorrow."

Jason's wife was mentally thanking Sonny and Michael, it's not like she didn't think Carly had the right to see her best friend, but Sam ached for some alone time with her husband. She had a lot to fill him in on.

The tall blonde sighed and the look she shot Sam made it clear, she knew what everyone was thinking. She agreed to leave though, since her and Sam's relationship was a lot better then it use to be. It had been better, after the truth of Danny's paternity came out. After all to see her best-friend's son she had to be decent to his mother, but when the little boy had been sick she had become even more friendly. Plus, she knew Jason deserved alone time with his wife and son.

Jason seemed mildly surprised though, with how easily Carly gave in as she hugged him tightly one last time and followed her son and ex-husband out the door. The look he gave his wife when the door closed behind the trio, made her laugh softly.

"She's... Mellowed out a bit recently when it comes to me," that made Jason raise his eyebrow in question but Sam simply pointed to Danny.

"Turns out being the mother to your son has more perks then being your wife," Sam said it softly, casually with a small but true smile gracing her lips, but her eyes were staring at him intensely.

Jason's breath caught, the way she said that... "Franco isn't Danny's father Jason, you are. Love.. Love won out!"

Jason, even if he could talk, would have been speechless at that. Ever since Robin had brought him back from that death like state the only thing on his mind had been coming back to his family. His wife, and his son, because he meant what he had told Sam. He loved Danny just as much as he had loved Jake, or as much as he loves Michael. DNA had never been important to him, or at least it never was after his accident so many years ago. Sure he had struggled at first, Sam had been raped after all, by the man he hated most in this world while he had been locked in a room, unable to do anything. But, he loved Sam more then he hated Franco, her child couldn't be anything less then perfect. To hear Franco wasn't Danny's biological father though... It brought so much joy and regret. Joy that man couldn't hurt them anymore, regret for time they lost and argued not knowing the truth. But lost time truly didn't matter anymore. He was alive and swore then, for the last time, he would never leave them again.

"Heather tampered with the results. Not long after you-" Sam was cut off when Jason raised his hand to her cheek and kissed her more firmly then ever before. He didn't need to hear the rest; it didn't matter.

No more looking back.

A/N Thanks to the Guest reviewer to letting me realized I mixed around a few important names! That's what I get for writing at 7 in the morning haha. Thanks to all those how have reviewed, followed, and put this story on their favorite lists so far! I really appreciate it! So.. I'm not quite sure what to do... My original plan was to have three or four chapters and end it there, short and sweet. But I was wondering how you guys would feel if after this little story is finished I added a one shot every now and then? Seeing the way General Hospital handles my favorite couple honestly makes me so mad sometimes... Why can't they be happy? Why do they have to keep throwing Elizabeth in our faces for 'drama'? It's ridiculous. Currently I'm boycotting the show until NuJason and Sam have another interaction. So tell me what you guys think! Would you like me to keep this open-ended and add more every now and then? I can't give you guys a set schedule for when I would add more though, it would be up to when inspiration strikes. So leave a review and let me know!
