A/N- This is a follow up the previous story (Maternal Instinct)… Just in time for the holidays a little Christmas fun…..AJ is still 17 here….

ENJOY…

It was early when JJ woke up, too early. She laid there in the bed still wrapped in Emily's arms and looked out the window.

"Merry Christmas sweetie." Emily said from behind her as she placed a kiss on JJ's shoulder.

"Merry Christmas honey." JJ replied running her hand down Emily's arm. "It snowed last night."

"So it's a white Christmas." Emily smiled.

"Reminds of Christmas' back home." JJ said as she turned around to face Emily. "What are you doing up?" JJ asked as she brushed the hair out of Emily's face.

"You're up; so I'm up." Emily replied. "What time is it?"

"7:30. We have a couple hours before AJ will be up." JJ said wagging her eyebrows. "Would you like part of your Christmas present now?" JJ asked already running her hand down Emily's side; causing Emily's spine to tingle.

"Oh very much so." Emily half moaned as JJ ran her finger nails across Emily's stomach. JJ started to respond but was cut off by Emily's lips crashing down on hers. Just as things were starting to get good, JJ's cell phone started ringing. "I'm begging you JJ don't answer that phone." Emily groaned as JJ's finger's continued to tease her.

"I'm sorry baby, but you know I can't do that." JJ rolled over, away from Emily, causing Emily to groan in frustration and grabbed her cell phone. She looked at the caller ID and sighed. "Amy this had better be important." JJ said as she answered the phone.

"Ms. Jennifer you were right." A very excited Jason screamed into the phone. "The letter worked, Santa knew exactly were to find me." Emily wrapped her arms around JJ's waist as they both listened to the little boy over the phone tell them all about the presents Santa had brought him. Jason had been living with Amy and Andy for three weeks now and although things were tough at times, he seemed to be adjusting very well. Even his therapist was shocked at how well he had adapted to his new surroundings. However, the last week he had been greatly concerned that Santa wouldn't know where to find him. It had been JJ that had come up with the idea of him writing Santa a letter telling him that he had moved. Emily and JJ continued to listen to the little boy and both had to hold back a chuckle as he never paused to breathe.

"Well I'm happy for you Jason. See I told you he would find you." JJ finally said once he stopped talking. "And I'm glad you got everything you wanted."

"Thank you." Jason said quickly before handing the phone over to Amy and heading back to his new toys.

"JJ?" Amy asked into the phone; not sure if she was still there.

"Yeah, I'm still here."

"I'm so sorry that we called so early, but he was so excited and he wanted to tell you so badly. I hope we didn't wake you." Amy said as she watched Andy and Jason playing on the floor.

"That's okay we were up." JJ smiled and felt herself blush a little. Emily let out a small laugh and then kissed JJ's shoulder.

"Well I'll let you go. We'll be over later. Five right?"

"Dinner is at 6:30, but come over when ever." JJ replied.

"Okay, see you later JJ," JJ told Amy bye and then closed her phone; placing it back on the night stand.

"Now where were we?" JJ said as she quickly rolled over and found herself on top of Emily "Oh yeah now I remember." JJ smiled as she pulled Emily into a kiss.

Later that afternoon….

"So how is Amy taking to being a mom?" Angie asked as she, Tom, JJ and Emily relaxed in the living. AJ had gone up to her room to put her new presents away.

"So far so good." JJ replied. "I don't think I ever seen Amy this happy."

"Or Andy for that matter." Emily added. "Parenting suits them." She said just as the door bell rang. "Speak of the devil." Emily laughed as she got up to answer the door. JJ heard a muffled Merry Christmas as Emily opened the door and then saw Jason running into the living room with an arm full of new toys.

"Ms. Jennifer look what Santa brought me." Jason smiled as he dumped the toys on the coffee table in front of her.

"Wow, look at all of that." JJ ruffled the little boy's hair.

"And there is more at home. Andy said that I couldn't bring it all. Do you think you could come over tomorrow and see what else he brought me?" Jason asked with pleading eyes.

"I think we can work something out." JJ smiled looking up at Amy, Andy and Emily; who had joined them in the living room.

"Hey I thought I heard the door bell. Merry Christmas Aunt Amy, Uncle Andy." AJ said as she came back downstairs. She gave both of them a hug and then turned to Jason. "Hey there little man." Jason looked up at AJ and smiled. "Wow looks like you hit the jack pot this year. You must have been a very good boy this year."

"I was." Jason replied proudly. "Wasn't I?" He asked turning to Amy.

"Yes you were sweetheart." Amy smiled.

"But guess what Jason?"

"What?" He asked turning to Emily.

"I do believe there are some more presents for you under the tree over there." Jason's eyes got huge as he glanced over the tree. "What do you say we open them up?" Jason looked over at Amy and Andy and was silently praying that they would say yes. A quick nod from Amy and Jason was at the tree in one giant leap.

Twenty minutes later all the presents had been exchanged and Jason was admiring his new soccer ball from AJ. What Jason said next brought the room to complete silence.

"I've never played soccer before." You could have heard a pin drop in that room. To JJ and AJ that was worse than saying he had broken one of the commandments.

"Are you serious?" Jason nodded. AJ threw her hands over her heart and faked a heart attack causing Jason to laugh. "Oh you think that's funny do you?" AJ jumped up and grabbed the little boy and threw him over his shoulder. "Never played soccer, what kind of craziness is that? Did you hear that mom?" AJ looked over at JJ.

"Well I think you need to take him out side and teach him how to play." JJ replied.

"Can I? Can I go outside with AJ and play soccer?" Jason asked still hanging over AJ's shoulder.

"Yeah but make sure you put your coat and hat on. It's cold out there." Amy replied and at the moment she realized she had just turned into her mother. She could hear JJ snickering beside her. AJ put Jason down and he ran off to kind his coat. A few minutes later he was running back through the living room with his coat on but no hat. "Jason I said to put your hat on." Jason never heard her as he was already out the door. Amy started to stand but JJ grabbed her hand.

"He'll be fine. They won't be out there long anyways. Dinner will be ready in less than an hour." Amy sighed, knowing that JJ was right and sat back down. A few minutes later, Angie and JJ went to the kitchen to finish dinner.

About 45 minutes later, JJ came back into the living room and was shocked to only see Amy standing at the sliding glass door and no one else.

"Where did everyone go?" JJ asked as she walked up beside Amy.

"They're downstairs playing pool." Amy replied never taking her eyes off of Jason. "AJ's good with him." Amy smiled as she watched AJ and Jason play soccer in the snow.

"It's amazing isn't it?" JJ asked as she put her arm around Amy and laid her head on her shoulder. "It's amazing how you can love someone so much so quickly."

"It really is." Amy smiled. "After the first of the year, we are going to start the process of legally adopting him."

"Wow, Amy that is great." JJ gave her friend a squeeze.

"And Andy and I want you and Emily to be his godparents." Amy said as she turned to look at JJ. "I want to know that if something happens to us, he will have someone this time. Someone to look after him; someone to love him."

"I'm sure I can speak for Emily when I say we would be honored." JJ said hugging her best friend.

"I don't want to break up this Hallmark moment but dinner is almost ready." Amy and JJ turned around to see Angie standing just inside the living room.

"Very funny mom." JJ said rolling her eyes. JJ followed Angie back to the kitchen while Amy told AJ and Jason that it was time to come inside.

Amy took Jason to the bedroom to get him cleaned up and into some dry clothes while AJ went into the kitchen to wash her hands.

"Man that boy is a natural." AJ told her mom as she dried her hands. "I think Aunt Amy needs to get him into a soccer league."

"I think your Uncle Andy has his heart set on baseball." JJ laughed.

"Oh and get this." AJ started to whisper. "He asked me if I thought it would be okay to start calling Aunt Amy and Uncle Andy mom and dad." JJ stared back at her daughter in shock.

"Are you serious? What did you say?"

"I didn't know what to say. I told him to talk to Aunt Amy and ask her."

"That is so sweet. I can't believe how well he has taken to them."

"Oh please mom, who are you kidding? Aunt Amy is nothing more than an over grown kid herself; what kid wouldn't take to that?" JJ laughed; her daughter did have a point.

Meanwhile in the bedroom…

"Did you have fun with AJ?" Amy asked as she helped Jason button of his clean, dry shirt.

"Yeah it was fun. She said that when it gets warmer she will take me to the park and we can play a real game." Jason smiled.

"That'll be fun." Amy heard the door open and she looked up to see Andy standing there.

"Hey buddy." Andy smiled as Jason ran over and jumped into his arms. Andy walked over and sat down next to Amy on the bed while she put Jason's shoes on. "How has your Christmas been?"

"Great." Jason smiled; still sitting on Andy's lap. "But I wanted to asked you something. I asked AJ but she said that I should asked you."

"Sure, what is it?" Amy asked.

"I know that you are not my real parents, but I was wondering if it would be okay to start calling you mommy and daddy?" Jason asked looking back and forth between Amy and Andy. Immediately tears threatened to fall from Amy's eyes.

"Is that what you want?" Andy asked struggling to hold back his emotions.

"Yes. I want a mommy and daddy again." Jason said looking down at the floor.

"Then we would be honored for you to call us mommy and daddy." Amy replied as she lifted the little boys chin up so he was looking at her. Upon hearing those words Jason smiled the biggest smile Amy or Andy had ever seen.

"I love you mommy." Jason said as he threw his arms around Amy's neck. That was all it took; the tears began streaming down Amy's face.

"I love you too." Amy said as she hugged him back. Jason jumped down from Andy's lap and ran towards the door. Just as he reached the door, he turned to look at Amy and Andy who were still sitting on the bed in a state of shock.

"Would it be okay if I called Ms. Emily and Ms. Jennifer Aunt Emily and Aunt Jennifer; like AJ calls you aunt and uncle?"

"I think they would like that very much." Andy replied, smiling at his little boy.

"Thanks daddy." Jason said as he opened the door and ran out of the room. "Aunt Jennifer can I still put the marshmallows on the yams like you said I could?" Amy and Andy heard Jason yelling down the hall way.

"Wow! He just called me daddy." Andy said turning to Amy.

"He called me mommy. I don't think I have ever heard a better word in all my life."

"I know what you mean. I can't believe we have a son." Andy pulled his crying wife into a hug. "I love you so much Amy. I love you and our family."

"I love you too honey." Amy replied into Andy's shoulder. "This has been the best Christmas ever."

"Yes it has." Andy smiled before giving Amy a very gentle kiss.
