It had been a month since Nikolas and Helena died. A month filled with relief and sadness. Sam and Alexis were doing a lot better with the situation and everything was just getting back to normal. Alexis and Julian's wedding was a month away and everything was all planed except for her wedding dress. She said that she just hadn't found the one yet. Sam and her sisters decided to let their mom take her time finding the perfect wedding dress. Since the only real wedding she ever had was in name only to her best friend they figured she deserved it.
Also in that month Jason and Sam decided that they wanted to renew their wedding vows. They were going to do it on their 4th wedding anniversary in Jason's grandmothers rose garden. They thought it would be a great way to honor the loved ones that Jason lost and in a way have them there for the ceremony. And even though Monica had given her ok Sam still wanted to ask Tracy. Sam wanted her to know that her feelings mattered. Tracy said that she was fine with it and want shocked everyone the most was that she meant it. Ever since Luke came back Tracy had been a completely different person. She smiled more and laughed more. She tried to act all tough like normal but there was a definite difference. Things had been unusually calm in Port Charles since the mod had made its exit. There was only one exception. Laura Spencer.
When Lucky called her and told her all that had happened and all that Nikolas did she knew that Jason had killed him. She didn't care that Nikolas had done what he did and tried to ruin the lives of everyone involved. All she cared about was that her son was dead and she wanted Jason Morgan to pay. She arrived in town about a week after it happened and had made it her mission to see Jason put behind bars. Jordan, the newly appointed commissionaire, didn't want anything to do with her vendetta. The crime rate had gone down drastically since the mob had been out of Port Charles and Jordan didn't want to do anything that would jeopardized that. Like going after the most well know hit-man on the east coast because a mother was upset her son was dead. There was no proof what so ever to link Jason to the killing. But Laura managed to get Scott on her side. As the DA he could make Jason and Sam's life hell if he wanted to. Laura tried any and everything she could. She harassed them on a daily basis. She even made a comment to Lila while she was out shopping with Krissy and Molly one day. That was when Sam had had enough. Jason and Sam had more than enough to get a restraining order on Laura so they did. She was not allowed within 100 feet of Jason, Sam, Lila and Danny Morgan or their home and business. But unfortunately that was not enough to stop her.
The day that Laura was served with the restraining order she showed up and Jason and Sam's house. Lila had answered the door and Laura pushed right past her as soon as the door was open. She didn't see Jason in sight so she stared yelling his name. When Jason appeared she stared going off on him. "You think a restraining order is going to stop me? Guess what? It didn't! I'm standing right here in front of you. You think that you can get what you want whenever you want it but the DA of Port Charles is wrapped around my finger and will do whatever I tell him to. I know that you killed my boy! And I am going to do any and everything I can to make sure that you rot in prison for the rest of your life. I don't care what evidence I have to falsify or what witness I have to pay off. You can kiss you freedom and your family goodbye because by the end of this week, you will be behind bars. I promise you that!" with that she slammed out of the house. But little did they know Lila had recorded the entire conversation on her phone. When Laura pushed her way into the house and stared screaming for her dad she pulled out her phone so that she got what Laura said on tape as proof she broke the restringing order. Lila had no idea that she would go off the way that she had.
Sam wanted to call the police and turn the video in right away but Jason wanted to wait. The way Laura was talking she had a set up planned and it was going to happen this week. And sure enough, two days later the police showed up and arrested Jason for the Murder of Nikolas Cassadine. They said that a witness had come forward and said they saw Jason leaving the house the on the night of the murder. When Jason got the police station Laura was there smirking as was Scott. Sam followed behind with her mother five minutes later. Laura blocked them from getting to the interrogation room. "You are wasting your time. He's not getting out of this one. The police commissionaire herself took the statement and issued the arrest on Mr. Morgan. And if possible, the death penalty will be enforced. I'll make sure of it." Laura smirked coldly at Sam.
Sam was in no mood and when Laura threatened her husband's life she lost it. She got right in Laura's face and said "Your son had an innocent woman shot because she was a threat to his secret coming out. He had a bullet put in her head to shut her up! And you have the never to sit here and say that my husband is getting what he deserves? You son was nothing more than another Cassadine monster that this world is better off without. He tuned out to be just like his grandfather and his father. I'm sure they welcomed him with open arms in hell!" Sam reached into her pocket and pulled out her daughter's cell phone as Jordan walked out of the room Jason was being held in. She walked over to Sam and said "Mrs. Morgan, I understand that you are upset nut causing a scene isn't going to solve anything. We have a credible witness that say they say your husband leave the scene."
"What you have is someone that this bitch paid off to frame my husband. Two days ago Ms. Spencer here violated the restraining order we had and pushed her way into our home. She said she didn't care what she had to do to make Jason pay, even if it meant falsifying evidence and paying off a witness."
Laura laughed sarcastically and rolled her eyes. "My daughter filmed it on her cell phone. The entire thing." Sam said looking Laura in the eye. Laura's face went shock white.
Jordan took the phone and watched the video. After it was over she looked at Laura and said "Did you pay the witness to come forward?" Laura looked at her and said "I don't have to answer that. I don't have to answer anything you ask." She picked up her purse and put it on her should her. "Now if you will excuse me, I have things to do."
Sam stepped in her way and said "The only place you are going is to jail." Sam looked over at Jordan and said "I want to press charges for the restraining order violation. Not only did she break it but my daughter said she put her hands on her to get in the house. My daughter is still a minor so I will also be filing an assault charge." Sam looked back at a shocked Laura. "You messed with the wrong family, bitch. You should have stayed gone."
Jordan had her placed under arrest. All the while she was screaming and shouting. "I am sorry Mrs. Morgan. I will make sure that this is taken care of. She will not bother you again. I have to go and confront the witness. Do you mind if I take this with me?" Sam shook her head. "As soon as I have conformation, Mr. Morgan will be released." Jordan took the phone and walked to the back where her office is. Sam saw Lucky sitting at his desk with his head down and walked over to him. "Are you ok, Lucky?" she asked.
Lucky lifted his head and said "I'm so sorry Sam. I had no idea that she would take things this far. I swear if I had known…" "Lucky, what you mother does is not on you. She is a grown ass woman. I'm sorry that you are hurting in this but I am going to do what I can to make sure she gets the maximum sentence. We are all trying to get back to normal and the last think we need is her and her vendetta." "Hopefully going to jail will do her some good. Open her eyes to what she has done." Lucky agreed.
Sam nods her head and the interrogation room doors open and Jason walks out. "The witness confessed to being paid by not only Laura but by Scott Baldwin also." Jordan says following Jason out of the room. "He will have until tomorrow to step down as the DA. If not I will have him fired. And Ms. Davis here, has agreed to take the position." Sam looked at her mother and said "Really?"
Alexis smiled at her daughter. "Yes. As of tomorrow at noon I will be taking over as DA once again." Sam hugged her mom and said "Congratulations!" "Thank you sweetie. Now how about we get out of here? I want to go home and tell you dad. And I'm sure you want to get home to Lila so she can stop worrying." The three of them walked out of the police station, relived that this was all over.
Later that night Lucky was sitting at Kelly's eating dinner. He kept going over the day's events in his head. His mother was in jail and likely going to prison for the next five years. When Lulu heard what happened she offered to take the boys for the night so he could have time to process it all. He couldn't believe that his mother would do something like this. She had turned into a person that he had never seen before. "Lucky? Are you ok?" he looked up and saw Hayden standing next to him. She had a look of concern on her beautiful face. "Hey, Hayden. Yeah I'm fine. It was just a stressful day at work."
She nodded her head and said "I heard. I'm so sorry about your mom. It must be hard on you and Lulu." "Yeah. What's harder is trying to understand why she did it. But I can't do anything about it. She did this so she had to pay for it. Anyway, how are you?"
Hayden smiled him and said "I'm good. I love working with Sam and Jason at the garage. Sam has turned into a really good friend and I'm grateful that you were able to talk her into letting me have the job." "Sam is a great friend to have. Trust me you would much rather be on her good side than bad but when you are on her good side, there is nothing she wouldn't do for you. I'm glad that it all worked out for you."
"Me too. Well I'll let you get back to your dinner. I'm hear picking up my order and then I'm going home. It was nice to see you." She turned to walk away but Lucky reached out and caught her hand. "I was wondering. Would you like to have dinner with me on Friday?"
Hayden was shocked. Ove the past month she and Lucky had gotten to know each other well and she realized that she liked him. He was funny and sweet and he was a great dad to his boys. But she never imagined that he would ask her out. She figured that with what he went through with Elizabeth he would be scared for life. "Really?" she found herself asking. Lucky smiled and said "Yeah." Hayden took a deep breath, smiled and said "Yes. I would love to have dinner with you."
"Great. I'll pick you up at 6 on Friday. Is that ok?" "Prefect." Hayden said. She picked up her order and walked to the door. She turned around and looked at Lucky and gave him one last smile before heading home. After having one of the worst possible days ever, Lucky decided that it ended pretty great.
