The next morning, Sam awoke and reached over to find Jason's side of the bed empty. She could feel the sunlight streaming through the windows and was surprised her daughter hadn't woken her up sooner. She figured Jason had Danni with him, so she got up and went over to the dresser where she was charging her cell phone. She had called once through the night to check on Bree, but she was wondering how she was. She found a note on the top of her phone. "I called the hospital, she's doing great. Love, J."
Sam smiled as she realized she didn't know who was worse with calling to check on Bree; her or Jason. She decided it was definitely Jason. While she showed care and concern for her daughters, Jason would stop at nothing to protect them from anything or anyone that posed harm. While Jason and Sam shared that instinct, Jason was definitely a little more on the edge while Sam tried to stay calm, cool, and collected. Danni also seemed to have the protective gene in her, because she was always asking how Bree was doing. When they were in the nursery the night before, she was worried about some of the "things" Maxie put in there being too close to the ground for Bree. Sam smiled thinking about the way Danni looked out for Bree. It reminded her of the way she had cared for her brother Danny. He would have been so proud to know her girls. Sam was brought out of her thoughts as her little girl walked into her bedroom.
"Mommy, I'm happy you're awake," she said walking over to Sam.
Sam bent down to her daughter's level and pulled her into a hug. "I must have been really tired, because I slept really late,"
"Daddy said not to wake you up, but since you're awake, I can tell you that we made breakfast," Danni informed her mother enthusiastically. "And we called and checked on Bree, and she is just fine," she added.
"Well it sounds like you and Daddy have been very busy. I can't wait to spend all day with you. It's been a long time, hasn't it?" Sam asked feeling guilty that she had spent months on bedrest and then time after Bree had been born at the hospital.
Danni shook her head up and down. "Can we go to the park?"
"We sure can and I wanted to talk to Daddy about doing something else with you, but that will have to be a surprise," she explained.
"Well there you two are," Jason said as he stood in the doorway looking at his beautiful wife bent down talking with their petite daughter that mirrored her mother in more ways than one.
"I told Mommy we made breakfast," Danni said proudly.
"Did you tell Mommy we saved the bacon for her to cook?" Jason asked with a huge smile on his face.
"Daddy we didn't do that. We made scrambled eggs, bacon, and toast," Danni said.
"Daddy's trying to be funny because I've been known to burn bacon and toast before," Sam said.
"I'm glad Daddy can cook," Danni added.
"You should be, or else you'd probably starve," Sam said as she stood up gently massaging her daughter's shoulders. "Let me get dressed and I'll be right down," she said.
Jason picked his little girl up and carried her out of the room. "We'll set the table while Mommy gets dressed," he said as he kissed her cheek.
Sam joined Jason and Danni in the kitchen and the three of them enjoyed a quiet breakfast until Max came in, "I'm sorry Jason, I tried to stop her, but-"
"When were you going to call me and tell me you were home?" Carly barged in and demanded from Jason.
"Carly," Jason nodded toward Danni trying to get her to understand it wasn't the best place. "Let's go into the living room," he suggested.
"Fine Jason, I'll go into another room, but don't think I'm going out of your life," she said causing Sam to smile at how ridiculous Carly sounded.
Jason pulled Carly by the arm and led her to the living room.
"Look Carly, I was coming to see you today,"
"You were, because I have to find out from this invitation that you're coming home for a weekend. What happened to us Jase, you're supposed to be my best friend?" she said honestly as she held up the invitation she had received to the party on Sunday.
"Carly, I'm still here for you. It's just that things have gotten really crazy lately. With Bree in the hospital and Danni flying back and forth, that's been my focus," he confessed.
"I know Jason, deep down I knew this would happen. I want you and Sam to be happy, but I want you here for me and my kids too,"
"Carly, I will do everything I can for you and your kids. Right now, Sam needs me. Bree is doing well, but she's not out of the woods yet. I've messed up, I've made mistakes, but my kids are young and they need me, just like I was there for you when Michael and Morgan were younger,"
Carly pouted a little bit. "I know that Jason, I just knew you were coming home and well, I thought you'd come see me last night. I was disappointed."
"Sam actually wanted me to come see you, but I had to check security and get some info on Michael. Carly, I want to talk to him today,"
"Well Jason, maybe you can get through to him before he's in over his head. Sonny's in no shape to run the business either though,"
"Carly I'm working on it, just trust me. I'm sorry I let you down, but Sam and my girls have to be first. That doesn't mean we can't be friends. I hope you can come to Danni's graduation and party tomorrow, but I can't drop everything for you like I used to, not now."
"I get that Jason and thanks for the extra men you have put on Morgan, Joss, and I. I just want you all to myself," she chuckled on the last part knowing it wasn't possible.
"Carly, just trust me. I'll do what I can, but Sam, Danni, and Bree are my family now. They need me,"
Carly was speechless. She was happy for Jason, but it hurt like hell to have her best friend tell her he couldn't be there for everything like she had been used to. She pulled him into a hug. When she pulled away she said, "Ok Jase, now we need to take care of Sonny and Michael,"
Jason shook his head. Had Carly not heard a word he said? "Carly, I'm going to finish what I was doing before you came in and then I'm going to see Michael. Then, I'll see what else I can do, but not if Sam or Danni need me. I hope you will be able to come tomorrow," he said simply as he walked back toward the kitchen.

Meanwhile, Sam sat with Danni in the kitchen. She was happy that Jason had been there for her every step of the way with her high risk pregnancy and since Bree had been born, but she knew that Carly would not take it well. She sighed.
"Mommy, is Aunt Carly mad at Daddy?" Danni asked.
It amazed Sam at how well Danni could pick up on what was going on around her. "No," she said simply as she searched for the words. Sam thought for a moment and she was unsure how to explain this so her child would understand, "You see, before Daddy met Mommy and before you or your sister were born, Daddy and Aunt Carly were best friends. They still are. Sweetie, Aunt Carly is used to having Daddy fix all her problems."
"Aunt Carly always has a problem," Danni commented.
Sam grinned, but she continued. "Danni, we all have problems. But now Daddy has you and Bree to think about, so he can't always help Aunt Carly and it's hard for her because she's not used to it. But no matter what Aunt Carly says or does, she always loves you and your sister. You and Josslyn will always be friends."
"Daddy went to jail for Michael," Danni admitted.
"Yes, baby girl, he did. Your daddy will do anything for the people her loves,"
"And he loves us a lot," Danni said grinning proudly.
"Yes he does," Sam said.
Jason walked back into the kitchen with Carly following him. "Well thanks Jason," she said in a somewhat sarcastic tone. Carly was so selfish, it was hard for her to understand that Jason had other commitments in his life.
"Hi Aunt Carly," Danni said innocently.
"Hey sweetie, it's good to see you. Josslyn is so excited about your party tomorrow. I guess we'll see you then," she said.
"Carly, I'll do what I can," Jason said trying to make Carly understand. He was happy she was putting on a good front for Danni, but he knew that she was not pleased with their conversation.
"And I'll go see about Sonny." She huffed. "On my own," and with that she stormed out of the house.
"That went well," Sam offered with a smile.
"Better than I expected," Jason said with a smirk.
Jason, Sam and Danni finished their breakfast. Jason was really quiet and Sam could tell that whatever he and Carly had discussed was bothering him. When they finished eating, Danni helped Jason clean the dishes while Sam made a few last minute phone calls for the party. When they were finished, Jason left to go see Michael.
As Sam hugged him, she tugged on his shirt, "Be careful and remember Michael IS an adult. You don't want to push,"
"I know. Thanks. Where are you two headed?"
"I think we're going to the lake house and then the park. I had something else in mind for later, if we have time," she said.
"Oh yeah, what's that?" he whispered suggestively.
"Not that," she said laughing playfully, "I thought maybe we could meet at the d-o-c-k-s and take your b-o-a-t out. That is if you can manage to solve all the world's problems first."
He laughed, even though they both knew it was nothing to be joking about. Michael was in trouble and everyone who had been or was associated with Sonny or Jason was at risk. He did like the way his wife was trying to keep things normal for their daughter. "We'll see," he said simply.
With that, Jason kissed Sam and Danni on the forehead and left.

As Jason drove, he thought about how hard he was on Carly. He felt somewhat guilty, but at the same time, he knew that Sam and his girls needed him too. He sighed as he remembered another time when he wished he could have been in two places.
Jason walked into the visitation room at Pentonville to find Sam sitting at the table. She was gorgeous, dressed in a black blouse, her dark hair flowing around her face. Jason couldn't help but notice that she was glowing. He walked in and sat down. He kissed her hands.
"Hello beautiful," he said.
"Hello yourself, handsome,"
"I miss you so much."
"Jason, I miss you too."
"I wish I could get out of these and wrap my arms around you."
"Jason, I'd give anything to be in your arms right now,"
"What's wrong?" he asked sensing that something was off. His suspicions were confirmed when he noticed the tears in Sam's eyes. He thought maybe she had found someone else. "Do you wanna break up?"
"Jason, stop. I've told you before I don't want to break up. I love you,"
"Then what's wrong. I'm so sorry I'm here,"
"Jason, I have something to tell you. Something shocking, even to me,"
Jason was curious, what could be bothering Sam. "What is it Sam?"
"Jason, we're having a baby," she announced.
His heart fluttered. He had always wanted a baby with Sam, but how could this have happened, Sam was told she couldn't have children. "That's great," he said.
"You're not mad?" she questioned.
"I'm excited, but Sam I can't be there for you and our child like I want to be. How-?"
"Well, remember the day I fainted here and we thought it was stress related and they took me to GH…well, Dr. Lee was surprised too. We're having a baby,"
"Is it safe for you? Can you carry the baby to term?"
"Jason, Dr. Lee says that some of the scar tissue on my uterus has healed and I should be able to carry this baby, but this is a high-risk pregnancy. Dr. Lee wants me to see some specialists in Maryland to help deliver our child safely,"
"Our child, I like the sound of that. This must have happened-"
"The night after you came back from Franco's art exhibit. We played dominoes Jase and then—"
"I can't believe we made a baby," he said.
"I can, we increased our odds considerably," she said.
"I'm sorry Sam, I will do whatever I can to protect you and our child and I'll come home to both of you as soon as I can,"
She reached up and placed a finger over his lips. "Shh. Stop Jase. Just be happy that we have this. I know you love me and I know you love this baby," she said as she placed her hands on her stomach.
Jason smiled as he drove. Sam was so understanding of the sacrifices both of them made for Michael. Now he had to put her and their children first. He smiled just picturing Sam with Danni and Bree in her arms. Carly needed to understand, they were his family.
When Jason arrived at the restaurant, he found some familiar guards.
"Mr. Morgan, what brings you here?"
"I'd like to speak with Michael,"
"Of course you may head into the office,"
Jason walked into the office to find Michael sitting behind Sonny's desk and on the phone. "Bernie, just do it. If the Zaccharas want to play that way, it's on," he said as he hung up the phone and his eyes spotted Jason surprisingly.
"Jason," Michael said, "I'm surprised to see you."
"What do you mean Michael? You knew I was in town because of all the guards and security we've moved around."
"It's just I didn't think you'd be here," Michael said.
"Michael, I'm here because I care about you. I'm going to tell you what I have to say one time," Jason said as his eyes grew a dark blue.
"Jason, save your breath. I know you don't think I can run this business, but my dad needs me and I can do it. I've been fine while you've been with Sam and the kids,"
"Michael it's not fine! From the conversation I heard, there's a mob war and for what reason? Innocent people are going to get hurt. You don't have anything to prove, but you're in over your head. I'd be in over my head,"
"Stop trying to protect me and treating me like some little kid who can't handle this," Michael demanded as he stood up.
"Michael, it's not that you can't handle it. This business will suck you in and I don't want that for you,"
"Look Jason, I respect what you're trying to do. You didn't want the power, but I do. It's fine that you want out. You and Sam should be happy, you deserve it," Michael said.
"Michael, when you were a baby, I swore to protect you and keep you safe. I just feel like I've failed if I don't warn you what this is really like,"
"Thank you for the warning Jason, but in case you haven't noticed you have two kids to take care of and I'm now an adult, so back off,"
"Michael I love my little girls, but I love you too. I know you're an adult, which is why I'm going to let you make this decision. But please think carefully about your choice before it's too late. I'll always be here if you need me,"
With that, Jason walked out of the office. He had tears in his eyes, but there was little else he could do for Michael. He just prayed that if things got tough, Michael would let him know. Jason was angry too. He had given so much of himself to that little boy, only to have him act like an ungrateful brat. Adult or not, Jason knew Michael was in over his head. From now on, Jason was finished trying to reason with someone who would act like that. He had a few things to take care of and he wanted to get to Sam and his little girl.

When Sam and Danni left the house, they went to the lake house first. Danni was so excited to see her Nana and her aunts. She ran ahead of Sam and into the house. Sam knew that Danni was fine, so she stopped on the porch and called the hospital. She spoke to the nurses who informed her that Bree was breathing much better than expected and that there had been no complications. She was pleased. She walked in to find Alexis sitting at the table with some legal work and Danni on her lap.
"Hey you," Alexis said.
"Hi mom, where are the girls?" Sam asked.
"They're still sleeping, late night for Molly and all Kristina seems to want to do is sleep," Alexis answered.
"Hey Danni, why don't you go in and wake up your Aunt Krissy and Aunt Molly," she suggested knowing that her sisters would be much easier for Danni to try and wake them than she or her mom.
"All right Mommy," the little girl said heading off to Kristina and Molly's bedrooms.
"How are you really?" Alexis asked knowing that her eldest daughter would say fine even if she wasn't.
"I couldn't be better Mom. My big girl has an exciting weekend and my little girl is doing very well. But I'm worried about Kristina," she confessed.
"I'm worried about your sister too. She's withdrawn and she's having a baby, I just don't know what to do,"
"Mom, is this baby Ethan's?" Sam asked not sure how her mom would react.
"Well there's that possibility, but there's also the possibility that this is Johnny's baby," Alexis explained.
"Woa- w-w-wait a minute, as in Johnny Zacchara? He swore that he would keep his hands off my little sister," Sam asked shocked. Sam was getting pissed. She warned Johnny to keep his hands off of her little sister more than once. Johnny was only alive because of Jason.
"Yes. Apparently your sister was trying to get Ethan's attention using every trick in the book. She pulled more stunts than I have time to explain now. Ethan was trying to be a friend to Kristina. Kristina wanted to make Ethan jealous. Somehow she drugged Johnny Zacchara and slept with him to make Ethan jealous. It must have worked because then she started sleeping with Ethan. I just don't see how someone so smart and so intelligent could be so stupid. Your sister's behavior has been spiraling downward for a long time,"
"I know Mom. I wish I could have been here," Sam admitted feeling guilty that she had been in her own blissful world with Jason and their daughters. Sam also knew that Alexis was to blame for enabling Kristina's behavior, but she didn't want to get into that with her mother now.
"Sam, don't do that. Don't think for a minute that you could have done more, your hands have been full,"
"I got Aunt Mols up," Danni announced walking back into the living room proudly with Molly behind her. Their entrance interrupted the conversation that Alexis and Sam were having about Kristina.
"Good Morning Molly," Sam said with a grin at her less than enthusiastic younger sister.
"Hey Sam, so glad you guys are home. It's so nice to see you, but it's early." Molly said as she walked over to give her big sister a warm hug.
"It's nice to see you too," Sam said.
"Aunt Krissy is in a bad mood," Danni stated as everyone looked to one another knowing what Kristina's moods could be like.
"Well sweet pea, we should probably let her sleep," Alexis said as she picked her granddaughter up and gave her a peck on the cheek. "I hear tomorrow is a special day," she said to Danni.
"Yes, it is. Graduation and then a party," Danni exclaimed.
"It's going to be so much fun," Molly said as she walked over to Danni and Alexis.
"I just wish Bree could come," Danni said.
"Soon, she'll be home with you," Molly said rubbing her back.
"How is Bree doing?" Alexis asked.
"Good. I just called to check. She should be breathing on her own soon and then we'll finally get to hold her," Sam explained.
"Yay!" Danni said.
"That's exciting sweetheart," Alexis said as she rubbed Sam's shoulder.
"Can we go wake Aunt Krissy?" Danni asked Molly who was now holding her.
"I don't think that's a good idea," Molly explained to the four year old.
"But it's one one three seven, she should be awake," Danni protested.
"I know we wanted to see Aunt Krissy too, baby girl, but we have lots to do and we should get going," Sam said as she encouraged Danni to say goodbye to Molly and Alexis. Sam hugged her mom and her sister. "We'll see you guys tomorrow," she said as they walked out of the lake house to get into the car.
As Sam buckled Danni into her booster seat, Danni asked, "Why is Aunt Krissy so mean all the time?"
"She's just having a bad day. What do you say we go play at the park and then grab some lunch and try and find your Daddy?" Sam asked.
"Ok Mommy," Danni said as Sam covered her face in kisses.
As Sam drove, she watched her daughter in the backseat. She was smiling, laughing, and excited. She wouldn't trade that for anything in the world.

After Jason left Michael at the restaurant, he decided to go see Sonny. He knew that Sonny was in bad shape and withdrawn, but he had to attempt to see his best friend. Sonny had been there for him so much. When Jason arrived, the nurse warned him that Mr. Corinthos was not engaging in visits. Jason pleaded for the nurse to allow him to see Sonny. When he walked in the room, he noticed that it was dark. He also noticed a powerless Sonny sitting on a chair in the corner.
"Hey Sonny," Jason said as he walked into the room. Sonny remained withdrawn and did not speak to Jason. Jason tried to make eye contact with Sonny, but Sonny offered no response. "Look Sonny, I know I've been MIA. Sam and I have another little girl, Breanna. She's in the hospital, but she's growing each day. I wish you could see her and I pray that I can be there for my kids the way you are for yours."
Jason waited for a response from Sonny, but he got none. He wasn't sure what to do for him. "Sonny, I'm here, whatever you need. Sam and I are here until Monday. I'll come back," he said. Jason wasn't used to seeing his friend in such a withdrawn state. He didn't know what more he could offer him. As he was walking down the hall, he ran into Dante. Despite his role in the PCPD, Dante had formed a bond with Sonny and tried to be there for his family. Even Dante had no explanation for Sonny's behavior.
"How is he?" Dante asked.
"Withdrawn. I haven't seen him like this since we thought Michael was dead. I tried Dante."
"I know you did. We're not going to give up. Sonny doesn't know about Michael taking over the business, so I wasn't going to say anything."
"Dante, I tried to talk to Michael. He's not budging and thinks he knows it all. It scares me to think about what could happen," Jason said.
"Between Michael and Kristina, the Zaccharas are pissed to say the least and you know what that means,"
"For Anthony that means war," Jason continued.
"I don't know what to do. I tried talking to Johnny,"
"You can reason with Johnny, but Anthony is just a loon," Jason continued, "I don't know where the other families stand, but I'm guessing they won't be on a young boy's side. This is the perfect opportunity to take Sonny down."
"What can you do about this Jason?"
"Dante I honestly don't know. I talked to Michael. I am going to protect my family, but I'm not stepping in to take over. That's too much risk to Sam and our girls," Jason explained adamantly.
"I understand Jason. If anything happened to Lulu, I know I'd feel the same,"
"Dante, I have to get going, but I'll see what I can do," Jason said as he walked away.
Jason didn't know what else he could do. Michael was in over his head and the Zaccharas were angry. Sonny had been the most powerful mob boss, but he was weak and that put everyone in danger. Jason decided to increase security guards for everyone and monitor the situation. He couldn't risk getting involved unless there was a direct threat to Sam or the girls. As he drove, he decided to call Robin.
"Hello," she answered.
"Hey Robin," Jason said.
"Hi Jason, your beautiful little girl is getting stronger and stronger. She's doing great."
"That's good news. I know Sam and I are driving you crazy, but it's so hard being away from her,"
Robin laughed. "It's ok Jason, you and Sam can call us as many times a day as you want."
"Don't say that, we may take you up on it," Jason said.
"We're here, call us," Robin encouraged.
"Thank you. It really helps knowing you and Patrick can keep an eye on her,"
As Jason hung up the phone, he thought about Sam and his girls and how he would feel if anything happened to them. He knew there was nothing he could do immediately except tighten security. He checked his text messages. Sam and Danni were at the park and decided to join them.
When Jason arrived at the park, he saw Sam's SUV and parked right beside her. He noticed the guards that were at a safe distance. He hated that his daughters were living in a world filled with guards, but it had to be this way, at least right now. Jason had made a choice less than a year ago to get out of the business, but he knew this was a business that you never truly get out of. He walked down the path to the park and found Danni on the see saw with Sam standing there pushing her up and down. He winked at Danni who was facing him and held his fingers to his lip. She started laughing as Jason walked up behind Sam and wrapped his hands around her waist.
Sam could feel his strong muscular arms and she knew Jason was behind her. She gently pushed Danni down so she could climb off and turned and kissed him. "Hello handsome," she said as she pulled away to check on Danni and saw her daughter walking toward them.
"Hey there," he answered. "Hey princess, are you having fun with Mommy?"
"We are having fun. We played on the swings, the slide, and the see saw." Danni informed her father.
"Sounds like you and Mommy have been busy," Jason said as he leaned down and picked his daughter up. He positioned her so that he was close to both of them, holding Danni in his arms and holding Sam's hand in his.
"We have had a busy day. So busy, I think it's time for lunch," Sam said, "What do you say we walk to Kelly's for some lunch?" she suggested.
"I love their cookies," Danni said.
"That sounds great, but you know you have to eat all of your lunch and drink your milk before a cookie," Sam explained.
"I know and I can do that," Danni said proudly.
"I have an even better idea," Jason offered looking to Sam for approval. She gave him a nod. After the morning Jason had, he wanted nothing more than to take Sam and Danni and hide in a bubble somewhere away from everyone else and their problems. Maybe that was selfish, but he didn't care.
"What?" Danni asked inquisitively.
"Let's order our lunch to go," he suggested.
"To go where?" Danni asked inquisitively.
Sam smiled at Jason, "Let's keep that part a surprise," she said as they walked.
Jason pulled out his phone and called Mike to place the order while they walked to Kelly's. He stopped at the SUVs to get a few things. Sam realized he had packed extra clothes for all of them and some other things they needed including sunscreen. "You're such a boy scout," Sam whispered in his ear causing him to grin.
He then told the guards that they needed to watch their vehicles, but that he would take care of Sam and Danni. Sam called the hospital one more time to make sure Bree was ok. After they picked up their lunch, they headed to the dock.
"Daddy, are we having a picnic by the water?" Danni asked.
"Better than that," Sam said.
"We're having a picnic on the water," Jason added. "We're taking Daddy's boat out and Mommy is going to drive it,"
"She told me she used to sail around the world on her boat," Danni said. In fact, Sam had told Danni many stories about the time she'd spent doing salvage work. With the wedding and the high risk pregnancy, they hadn't yet taken Danni on Sam's boat.
"Baby girl, I've been waiting to sail with you and your daddy since you were born and today is the perfect day." Sam explained the rules of the water to Danni who agreed to follow them.
Jason smiled as they gathered their things and got onto the boat. The afternoon was perfect. They enjoyed their lunch while Danni asked many questions that both Sam and Jason answered. Danni was very interested in sailing and Sam and Jason were very happy to answer her questions. Shortly after they had finished eating and Sam had showed Danni around the boat, which was on autopilot, Danni fell asleep in Jason's arms.
"She's out," Sam said nodding to Jason who couldn't see that his daughter's blue eyes were closed.
"I've been waiting for a day like this for a long time," Jason said looking into Sam's loving eyes.
"Me too," she said as she reached up and kissed him on the cheek. Sam prepared a spot for Jason to lay Danni with blankets. He gently laid his daughter down, covered her and kissed the top of her forehead.
Jason and Sam walked to the upper deck where they could see for miles and miles. Port Charles was close by; yet seemed so far away. At first neither spoke. Then all at once,
"Jason, we went to my-" Sam started. While Jason said, "I went to see Michael and Sonny." They chuckled because both had been waiting for a time to share what had happened with one another.
"You go first," Jason encouraged.
"Well, Danni and I went to my Mom's this morning. Kristina would not get out of bed, so I didn't speak to her, but my mom confirmed that Krissy is in fact pregnant with a baby that could be Ethan's or Johnny's."
"What?" Jason asked looking confused.
Sam explained what had apparently happened between Kristina and Johnny. Jason was stunned. "I'm sorry Sam, I don't know what to say," he confessed.
"Well Kristina's out of control," Sam spoke as she waved her hands in the air.
"So is Michael," Jason admitted as he explained his visit with Michael. "Sam, we've got a mob war starting,"
"That's what I'm afraid of Jason, what can we do?" she asked in a concerned voice.
"We aren't going to do anything, but I am going to do all I can to make sure you, Danni, and Bree are safe. Beyond that, I can't worry about it," Jason said.
"Jason, that's not like you, I can tell you're worried" Sam said.
Jason took her hands in his as he moved a piece of hair out if her face. "You're right, I have always protected Michael, but he's an adult making his own decisions now. If he comes to me for help, I'll help, but I'm not going to be the cause of this war that's brewing. I love you and our girls too much to put you at risk like that. Don't worry if anyone comes near my family, they'll pay."
Tears were filling her eyes, "I love you Jason and I support you doing whatever you have to do, just let me know how to help."
"Do me a favor and keep our girls safe and happy," he said as he pulled her into a passionate kiss. His mouth covered hers as his tongue moved in and out of her mouth. Suddenly, they heard a loud boom and pulled away.
Jason and Sam both looked over toward Port Charles. "That's Johnny's warehouse," Sam said.
"It appears Johnny has been attacked and I can only guess who's responsible," Jason said.
"Michael" they said in unison.
