Chapter Thirty Two
"You know, the one thing I always believed if nothing else about Carly, was that she loved Michael. Yet, not a single present, not a single one for him even if she like normal ignored Morgan." Bobbie then continued.
"She repeatedly took money from Kelly's, claimed it was for presents for the boys, instead she would blow it on designer nails, hair cuts and such, acting as if nothing in her life had changed. Then when she was hear yesterday, this idea that Sonny had stashed gifts for her. I hate to say it, but I am afraid that the gifts she had thought to receive was the only reason she was here, not for her sons, not for me."
"I am sorry, Bobbie. Truly, I know how much you had to wok past, how much you had to forgive your daughter for over the years."
"I wish I could blame Jason." she said with a slightly bitter laugh. "But he was the symptom, not the disease, he has made it clear for years that all they had was friendship, but Carly always wanted more, more of everything she could get her hands on. Not even Sonny is at fault. Frankly there is something wrong with my daughter, something that was wrong long before she came to Port Charles."
Taggert saw AJ coming down the stairs, saw that he realized something was going on and waited until Bobbie had gone to wash her face to fill him in. "Check the bar, she likes to hang out in Jason's old room."
"What about Morgan?" he asked.
"My brother won't save her if that is what you are asking." said a tired AJ.
"No, do you agreed that this isn't his fault?"
"Yeah, mainly because in truth, Jason was totally blind about Carly. OH, he knew what she did, but he truly didn't get how bad it was and how she used him to cover her own ass. I would expect that wherever you find Carly, she will want you to call Jason, thinking that this time he will show up, that this time he will rescue her. He won't, he finally figured out that she does what she does to so that she can have her delusions reaffirmed that she is first in his life."
Jason was having a very good morning, his wife had woken him up by kissing her way down his chest, then had fulfilled a fantasy of his. Then they had showered together just before their very hungry son had woken up and demanded his attention.
Now he was downstairs, feeding his young son while his wife was dressed to head to work. Kissing her, he asked what her plans were for that evening. "To take down some of the decorations, but I am leaving the tree up until New Years." she said before kissing him and heading out to work.
After a few phone calls, Jason looked around then said to his son. "I say we help Mommy."
There was a knock at the door twenty minutes later then his brother in law entered carrying the requested boxes. "Why am I doing this again?"
Hearing another knock, Steven opened the door to see AJ standing there with Michael and they were a bit surprised to see Morgan too. "Jason, why are we here?"
"Well Elizabeth decided to take down some of the decorations but leave the tree until the new year, I had decided to change that plan. I- rather we are going to do it." he said. Seeing the excitement in Michael's face but the protests in the other twos, he said "We need to talk about Edward and this lets us do that while freeing Elizabeth up for some plans I have for us later."
"What about Edward? He will cease to be a problem as of January 2nd, or haven't you talked to the family today?" asked AJ.
"Yesterday I thought he was telling Grandmother he refused to go." he said while handing Steven one of the wrapped delicate holiday vases.
"He changed his mind after a night spend sleeping in the guest room."said AJ softly while Michael was helping unwrap the garland from the stairs.
"Then he should be leaving Emily and you alone when it comes to playing matchmaker." said Jason relieved.
"Well after the afternoon visit from Brenda, by the way, she was also hit by Santa Claus, only she is calling him scrooge. Did you know that most of that crap was sent to her by admirers. Jax came over later, while Emily was visiting with Nadine, gave her a list of five names. Suggested she marry one of them or do as he suggested and get a real job. It was not pretty according to Alice."
"Gossiping with the servants, AJ?" asked Steven as Michael and he closed the box labeled garland for stairs.
"Hey, Alice knows all the best stuff, like that Dillon came home last night all depressed because Georgie told him that sorry she had no interest in getting back together with someone so immature and still tied to his mother's apron strings." he said with a chuckle.
And she had also given AJ some less welcome news. Looking at Jason he said "Did you know about dad's surgery?"
"I found out last night, when we were there for dinner." he said."Monica told me. Steven, speaking of that, Gail showed up, are you aware that the house Audrey is living in belongs to Jeff, Tom and the grandchildren?"
"No, but I am not surprised." he said with a heavy sigh. "Grams more than likely never had any intention of telling us, we would have found out after she died. That way she didn't have anything to
hold over us when we stayed there, if we had known the truth."
"How are things with Audrey Hardy?" asked AJ.
"She is leaving town today, with Gail. Hopefully they can figure out what the hell is wrong in her head. I don't care what Gail says, there has to be something wrong with her, I mean to do what she did, to treat Elizabeth that way." said the angry grandson.
"Uncle Jason, you forgot to open some presents." said Michael as he handed the stockings to his uncle.
Jason looked inside and said surprised. "Michael, you are right, you know what, leave those on the mantle, Elizabeth and I will open them later."
An hour later, the house was back to the way it was decorated before the holidays as they all went their seperate ways, Steven to GH with Michael and Morgan who were meeting up with Bobbie, where he saw Emily who was gossiping with Bobbie Jones.
Getting told what was going on, he said said "Michael and Morgan are with Monica outside, I guess that is what AJ needed to speak to Jason about."
"More than likely." said Bobbie before going to meet her grandson's for an early lunch.
Back at the house AJ and Jason had done some checking and both were not happy. "I am going to stay out of it."
"I will help Courtney get her stuff back, then put her on a bus to Texas." said AJ groaning. "I still feel guilty about the past but this, well this is the last favor I do for her."
AJ left and went to the hospital to check on the blond who was getting dressed. "I am going to help you, then put you on a bus out of town. Courtney, there is nothing left for you here and you need to face that your life has changed."
Making a few calls, getting her money, he said "I will go with you to the bank."
At M&T, they put all her money in an account she would be able to access in Texas, then he drove over to her loft, gathered the clothes she had purchased and the few things that Carly hadn't sold and she was soon on a bus to San Antonio Texas, AJ having persuaded her by reminding her that she had always wanted to go to Spain and that Spain had once owned Texas.
When she had left on the bus heading south, AJ went to gather the boys and to head back to the brownstone, thinking that he hoped Taggert had caught Carly by now.
In truth, the detective had been unable to catch the blond. Finally at four PM, he had put out an APB on the blond before deciding to have a few uniformed officers sit on the loft and Jake's.
At the hospital, Elizabeth was changing at the end of her very long shift. She had had a few surgery cases but that hadn't been the fun part of the day. The fun part had been hearing about the outrageous gifts and the various reactions of members of the town who had gotten coal.
She had found a pen like the rest of the nurses in her locker but the part that had gotten to her, wasn't the beauty but the name engraved on it. Elizabeth Morgan. Seeing it on the pen, had done something to her, had unsettled her in some way.
"Elizabeth?"Turning to Emily she hugged her best friend then they were both seated as Emily told her about her presents. "Its wonderful, but it has me missing my biological mom."
"I was looking at this, the name on it. Elizabeth Morgan." she said showing Emily. "And it hit me, I am married, to the most wonderful man in the world. We have one son and another on the way. Em, I have that dream life I always wanted."
"Yes you do." she said hugging her best friend. "And I can't think of anyone who deserves it more."
"Are you done for the day too?" Turning to see Nadine, Emily asked "So, saw Brenda fleeing town, in a taxicab no less. No limo for her."
"Yes, I think she got the message that Jax didn't wait for her and that he wasn't going to be her knight errant." she said then blushing told them. "We uh, last night, for the first time."
"Really? Wait, you two hadn't? Before last night?" asked Elizabeth. Then with a wicked grin asked "Well, how was it?"
There was laughter as the blond blushed then stuttered that she couldn't answer that.
"Well that means it was either really good or really bad." replied Emily as Sarah came into the room to change as well. "So, Sarah, what have you been up to? Nadine had sex with Jax, Elizabeth and Jason, well we all know that they have been going at it like rabbits."
"EMILY! Emily Bowen Quartermaine, that isn't very nice." scolded her mother as she came into the room. "How would you like it if we asked you about your love life?"
"Well I kissed Leo Julian two days ago, as hot as he is, it was boring. Then there is Steven, we kissed to mess with grandfather. It might have been hot but all I kept seeing is Elizabeth's face and trust me, that ruined things." she said while Elizabeth looked green.
"Okay, Em... anything you want to tell us? Like have you switched teams and are you secretly lusting after my sister." teased Sarah. Seeing the glare she admitted. "I get it, but you know, from what one of the nurses who once worked with my brother said, he is pretty good in bed."
"Oh god, I need to get out of here." said Elizabeth burying her head in her hands as Emily asked for details and Monica said that Jeff had been pretty good back in the day. Nadine was watching her jaw wide open as Lainey and Kelly who were also leaving for the day began to offer their opinions too.
Sarah just teased Emily without actually saying a whole lot but by the time Epiphany Johnson came looking for Sarah who was just going on duty, all Elizabeth could think was that she needed a drink, but since she was pregnant she would have to settle for half priced Christmas candy instead as she dragged a horrified Nadine with her.
A stop at Tops later, they drove to her house, both of them chomping on the milk chocolate candy, neither saying a word. Entering the house, stopping when she saw that other than the tree all her decorations were down. "Oh, how sweet, Jason took the green and red down."
"Jax will just hire someone." Nadine said with a sigh. "Or maybe Lady Jane will do it. That boy, he might be talented, but something tells me he is a bit spoiled when it comes to certain things."
"Is that why you didn't sleep with him until now?" asked Elizabeth as she went to get two glasses of milk, then said the hell with it and brought the gallon in with her and the two empty glasses.
"No, maybe, I am not sure." confessed Nadine. "Either way, it was the best thing for us. Wait, usually Jason is here when you come home, where is he?"
"Didn't you see the note?" Elizabeth said pointing to the mantle. Reading it, Nadine said "He went to see a man about a bike?"
"I have no clue." she said with a chuckle then leaned over to say "But hopefully it is his old bike, I miss that bike. His new one is nice too, but I prefer the older one. I had a better excuse to wrap my arms around him."
"You need an excuse?" she was asked with a wink.
Frowning, Elizabeth said "You are right. Nougat?
Taking the offered square piece, Nadine said "What was up with Monica, I mean, really, telling you how good your dad was in bed?"
"Stop saying that." she moaned.
"So, Jason... uh, I gather the two of you are well... uh, active?" she asked the other woman who was drinking the glass of milk straight down. "I mean just think someday, your son will be reacting that to the idea. Still, Monica was married to your dad?"
Giggling, Elizabeth said "A long time ago, but she had several affairs with my uncle."
"Really?"she asked. "I just can't imagine her doing something like that, I sometimes fell so out of touch with real life. I mean, until I met Jax, I never fantasazied about the sex, about romance yeah, but not the physical nature of the relationship"
With a giggle at how blood red Nadine was, Elizabeth said "Oh, I could, even before we got together. Back when we staying at my studio, when he was hurt, I used to fantasize about Jason. I also have a very active imagination and was still very naive about sex. Then one day, a woman left a romance novel at the diner and I read bits of it since it was set in Italy and let me just tell you, my very active imagination and I were blushing all night as I attempted to paint."
"Have you ever painted Jason?" asked Nadine intrigued.
"Painted no, drawn yes." she said then thought about something. "I will be right back."
Hurrying up her stairs, Elizabeth went to her closet, pulled down the box and quietly said yes as she went back down the stairs. Seeing Nadine talking on her cell phone, she laughed as the other woman turned a very deep red then told Jax where she was.
Hanging up, breathless she said "Jax is coming to get me, he has something he wants to show me."
Barely ten minutes later the blond had left, Elizabeth got rid of the evidence of their chocolate debauchery and went to make plans. She was hoping that Cam went straight to sleep as she finalized things just as she heard Jason entering through the garage.
Jason saw the leftover chocolates in the fridge and the wicked grin on Elizabeth's face and asked what was going on?
"Just a very long day.' she said with a smile at her husband as she brushed a kiss on top of her son's head as they removed his winter gear. "So how was your day. I see you got everything down."
"Well I was thinking I had plans for you this evening." he said as he settled Cam into his playpen. Kissing her, he said "I found something I have to show to you later, but for now, what do you say we heat up some of the leftovers."
Quickly doing so, he told her what AJ had explained to him about Courtney, then how he had seen Audrey leaving town with Gail Baldwin. As they discussed how things were settling down, he said "Taggert showed up here earlier, asking if I had heard from Carly. She locked Courtney in the basement at the Brownstone over Christmas."
"Oh dear." she said then admitted "I never thought I would feel sorry for Courtney, but I hate to say I do. She really is an idiot."
"I know." he said with a heavy sigh as he thought about his very bad mistakes regarding the blond. "Either way, she is heading to jail, this time more than likely permanently."
Sitting down and eating their dinner, Elizabeth told him all about what had happened at the hospital. Avoiding the subject for a few minutes, she finally confessed. "I uh, had a rather revealing conversation with Nadine."
Flushing red as she told him all she had accidentally revealed about her fantasies. "I was thinking, I could show you."
Pulling her to her feet and pressing a kiss on her lips, he said "Oh, I think I would be willing to be shown."
Elizabeth heard Cam calling for them as they returned to the living room. Lifting their little boy, Jason said "Your mommy wants to be a bad girl tonight, for right now, I think we should keep her presents from her."
"My presents?" she asked confused until Jason walked over to the mantle and said "We were visited by Santa Claus at some point yesterday."
Elizabeth sat down, took Cam into her arms and holding their little boy stuck her other hand into the stocking with her name on it and pulled out the wrapped box. Inside, finding the delicate angel pin from Tiffany's, she read the accompanying note, then saw the envelope and reading what was written in it, she said "He wrote that there was a gift for the two of us in your stocking."
"Does he say why?" Jason asked then was handed the note, reading it, he agreed with the man. "Anthony is right, you are my guardian angel."
Flushing a bit, she told him to open his own stocking and saw him pull out a series of key chains. "Jason?"
Reading the attached note, he gave a chuckle then said "You are not going to believe this, these all go to a corresponding car or motorcycle. And there are lessons for you, on how to drive one."
"What?"she asked shocked as she saw there were ten different sets of keys."Why would he give us cars and bikes? And I will so enjoy finally learning to ride a bike."
Lifting each key, then reading the registrations that were attached to the paperwork. "Porsche, Corvette, Range Rover, Ducati, Harley Davidson, Toyota, Astin Martin, Ford, Cadillac, Indian Motorcycle."
Jason then saw something that had him chuckling as he showed it to Elizabeth. "The Ducati, its only in your name."
Looking down at her barely rounded belly, she pouted for a moment then said"Well eventually I will get to use them."
Shocked and wanting to thank Anthony, Elizabeth and he talked about what others had gotten, then she handed him Cam then went to get her purse. "I wanted to show you, look."
Reading the name, he smiled and said "Well you are Elizabeth Morgan."
"Yes I am." she said putting it back into her purse. Looking at the clock, then at the little boy falling asleep in his father's arms, she said "Do you want to put him to bed, or do you want me too?"
"I will." he said looking at his little boy. Standing, Elizabeth went to look the doors, turn off the lights and followed her husband up to the second floor. Watching as he put Cam down and softly read to him, she slipped to their bedroom and was about to change when she felt his hands slip around her waist and pull her back against the evidence he was quite happy to be alone with her.
Slowly kissing his way down her neck, Jason drew her to their bed, reminding her she had been a very bad girl that day and soon had proved how bad she had been.
Taggert had given up for the day, he would search tomorrow for Carly Corinthos, after all there was a APB out on the blond, the money she had stolen was now back with the other blond.
Her mother wouldn't help her, Morgan would not help her either. There was no Sonny, Carly had no one left, her normal safety nets were long gone. Leaving the station, he was on the drive home when he heard the news come over his radio.
"All hands on, fire at Jake's Bar." Taggert was going to ignore the call, but took a deep breath and pulled out his red light, put it on the roof then turned on his siren as he put his foot down on the gas and sped up toward the docks.
Arriving, he had to hide his chuckle as he saw the blond, standing outside wearing a coat, while next to her, Coleman was doing the same while in front of them the bar was on fire. Looking at the owner, he said"What happened?"
"I don't know, there was smoking coming from upstairs. Then there was the sound of the fire alarm. Next thing I knew, Carly was coming down the stairs. We got outside just as the fire department showed up."Taggert saw that Coleman was trying to hold his coat closed, but it was clear from his bare legs that he didn't have much on.
"I gather you were in bed?" he asked.
"Yes, I went to bed, after we talked earlier, the bar was closed for today." Coleman wasn't going to let himself be on the hook for Carly slipping inside after he had closed the bar. He wasn't worried, there was no way the blond would confess the truth, he was off the hook.
"Its out." said the fireman who left the building. "Most of the damage was upstairs, one thing. There is no way that anyone came down the stairs once the fire started."
Taggert walked over to where the Fire Captain was talking to his man. "What are you saying?"
"That if there was someone upstairs, they started the fire on their way down." he said while looking over at the two people standing in their coats. "And uh, I saw two sets of clothes, in the office, on one of the chairs. A set of man's clothes, and a set of women's clothes, including a bra."
The bald detective walked over, just as two more officers arrived. He saw how Carly was trying to act like there was nothing going on, then saw the shifty expression on Mitchell Coleman's face.
"Arrest Mrs. Corinthos, Coleman, I have no idea when they will let you back into the bar. Why don't you head down to the station, file a report then you can go do what you want." said Taggert, hoping he fell for it.
When the man had agreed. Taggert made a call. "I need a team at the fire."
Looking at the team when it arrived, he said "Handle the office first. I want every single surface checked. I want proof they were having sex."
Mac had arrived at the station, saw Carly being led back to her cell wearing the orange overalls that prisoners war and heard her demanding the right to call her attorney. Stopping, walking over, he handed her his cell phone and said "Go ahead. But don't both trying to reach Diane Miller, she is in the Bahamas."
Glaring at the man, Carly took his phone and called her mother, only to be hung up on. Gritting her teeth, she tried Jason's cell phone, only to be told it was disconnected. Beginning to punch in another number, she was pissed when Mac Scorpio took his phone back.
"Hey!"
"You had your call. The judge will appoint a public defender tomorrow."she was told then led to her jail cell while in his office, Mac sat down across from Coleman and shook his head. "Well interesting enough Carly is saving her own ass. You agreed to sleep with her in exchange for not turning her in."
Seeing Coleman's eyes widen, he said "Tell me your side of the story."
Starting to spin it, he saw Mac roll his eyes in disbelief and he couldn't resist tossing out there, "Com'on, if you weren't a cop, tell me you wouldn't do that same for a piece of ass like that."
"I wouldn't touch Carly Corinthos in any scenario." he replied. "You know, you are facing charges."
"Misdemeanor and honestly it was worth it." said Coleman with a smug smile.
"Get out of here, after picking up your appearance ticket." he said disgusted with the man. Making a call, Mac went to meet with the DA and Judge May. "What are we going to do with her. She has been in and out of my police station, she seems to think there are no consequences for her actions."
"We talk to her public defender, give her a chance to plead out, then if she doesn't do so, hopefully the trial judge will give her a wake up. Either way, I was Carly Corinthos out of my town." Mac said to the DA.
Walking back across the street to the station, Mac walked down to the tomes and towards the blond. "Coleman, Carly?"
"I have no idea what you are talking about." she said snottily.
"He confessed, of course I made him think you did so first." he said looking at her. "Wow, what a let down for you. From Mob wife to the dregs in exchange for his keeping your whereabouts quiet. How low you have fallen."
"I will be back on top, you just wait and see." she retorted.
"Well Jason wants nothing to do with you, Sonny is gone, Lorenzo left the country. Who do you think is going to save you this time?" he asked mildly entertained when the delusional blond said Jason wouldn't let her to go to jail.
"Carly, there are no words, nothing that will get Jason Morgan back on your side. He no longer believes your manipulations. You know what, you came to town with nothing, guess what, you are leaving town with the same." With that, he walked off, letting her stand there, thinking on what he had said.
Muttering, Carly said "Well we will see, Mac. We will see."
Jason woke up, not sure what had disturbed him. Reaching out for his wife, he realized that she was missing. "Elizabeth?"
Hearing the light switch being turned on, he noticed he was covered in nothing more than a sheet and his wife was standing on the side of the bed, wearing nothing more than her silk bathrobe. Feeling his body reacting, stiffening up in response to seeing the tips of her nipples become more distended behind the silk.
"You were tired last night, weren't you?" she asked. When he nodded yes, his eyes never moved from the bare skin exposed to him. His eyes traveled down to her hand which was holding the edge of the sheet that was now tenting up.
He gulped when she slowly pulled it off of him, her eyes traveling down his body as it was uncovered. That feeling of something being off came again, when he felt something on his body. Seeing the markings, he looked up to see Elizabeth shifting her arms so that her robe would drop.
There were matching markings on her body to the ones now on his."Elizabeth?"
"I had a thought yesterday, about us. How you were my favorite work of art." Running her hands down his body, she encircled the blue markings around his nipples, then there were arrows that traveled down his stomach, followed by the word mine just above his erection.
Looking at Elizabeth, finding some words marring her beautiful skin. Reading them, Jason pulled her down onto the bed with him and Jason faithfully obeyed her orders.
"You missed one." she said throatily. Before she could take her next breath, Jason had her pinned to the bed with his body and hands.
"Oh I didn't miss the order to kiss you." he said then pressed his lips to her temple, then her ear, where his tongue traced the delicate inner shell causing chills to chase after the heated arousal he was rising. "You just didn't think to limit where I was to kiss you."
Their eyes met when his hands cupped her face, holding her head still as his thumbs caressed her cheek bones, the feel of her delicate skin, against the callouses on his hands making them both shiver. Hearing Jason saying her name, Elizabeth could only moan his in response.
Her heart was beating wildly as she watched Jason's head move in closer and closer, her eyes fluttering closed as she waited for his kiss, but instead of feeling them on her lips, he had dipped his head and kissed the side of her throat. When she mewed in protest, he pressed a kiss on the opposite side then eased up to capture her mouth in a kiss that made her feel like he was stealing her soul.
Elizabeth's hands found themselves in his hair, the feel of the soft texture amusing her to some extent because she knew that he used hair products for the mere purpose of controlling it, keeping it out of his face. Sliding her hands to the back, intent on pulling him in even closer.
Instead he moved back just enough to whisper how he intended to follow every single direction she had painted on him. With a laugh she said "That was for me, so I wouldn't forget my plan."
"Not this time." he said with a wicked grin as he saw her pout. "Now, what was the first direction. Kiss? So far I have only managed that in one spot."
Intent on arguing, Elizabeth could only gasp as Jason's lips slowly moved over her skin, then clamped on her exposed nipples. She felt her back arching as her nipples swelled and tightened even further but Jason didn't move, didn't suckle, just held themselves there as if waiting for direction.
"Jaso-!"Elizabeth bit her lip at that point as his tongue suddenly touched the sensitive point, then retreated, then left her nipple. She couldn't help herself as she cried out "Jason, please, no, don't stop."
With a smirk, he moved to her other side, clamped down again with just his lips then using the tip of his tongue repeated the early touch, then retreated. Reaching out with her hands, she tried to guide his mouth back to her nipple, but he resisted then dipped his head to claim the same nipple again, repeating his teasing touch, watching her body writhe with need.
This time however, Elizabeth was expecting the gentle teasing touch as he moved back and forth, tormenting her with just enough touch to excite her, but not enough to give her pleasure, until she was almost in tears with her need.
When she felt his lips again clamp on her tip, she waited for the soft gentle sensation of his tongue, but this time, instead he laid siege to her completely sensitive nipple, sucking, flicking, encircling it almost completely with his tongue as every single touch sent a corresponding tug to her already heated core.
Then just when she felt she could take no more, he gently nipped her tip then moved back to the other side. Expecting him to repeat what he had just done, she sobbed when he only pressed against her tip with his tongue, the teasing having begun again.
Jason could feel Elizabeth's erratic but very strong heartbeat when he moved back to the nipple he had just ravaged but only pressed a kiss against it before reaching over and biting down just enough with his lips over his teeth to torment her.
"JASON!"Elizabeth moaned when he clamped down, desperate for him to lave the same attention of this side and he gave in, flicking his tongue repeatedly then sucking until he felt her hands running through his hair, her body curling up around him.
His hands traced down her body, easing her legs away from his thighs, fighting through his own need to let her know what was going on, he said "I am only just beginning."
Those words sent shivers down Elizabeth's spine as he arranged her how he wanted her then stroked down her stomach, his lips leaving a heated path as they traveled down her skin. Blunt masculine fingers eased between her legs, moving them even further apart as he dipped into her slit to gather the moisture he knew he would find.
"Jason, please, I can't... I can't wait any longer." she muttered only for her husband to ease her onto her side and slip behind her. This wasn't what Elizabeth wanted, the gentle loving that usually followed in this position, but before she could tell him that, she had felt the hard pressure of his cock against her entrance and could no longer think let alone speak.
"Does this help any?" he whispered as he moved her long curls off her neck and pressed a kiss against her pulse point at the same time as his hand lifted her leg to ease it back and over his, opening her just enough for his caressing hands to sooth her a bit.
"I just want to love you a little." he said as he pressed inside her, just his tip then retreated, then entered again this time a little further. With her leg over his, he was completely in control as he finally took possession of her body, thrusting in fully.
Turning her head to look at Jason, before she could tell him not to stop, he took her lips in a deep drugging kiss while he was still buried deep inside of her, not moving. Trying to get him to thrust, she moved her hips only for Jason to reach down and hold them still. "Behave."
When she whimpered in need, Jason nuzzled her neck then barely able to speak himself he eased her even further back, further at his mercy but he had no intention of tormenting her, he had only moved them into this position because it gave him more control to keep from coming while giving her pleasure. He had a long morning planned and this was only the first round.
Stopping her from trying to move again, he eased the hand that was buried by her body around front and just touched the tip of her clit. Hearing her moaning, realizing she was biting her lips to resist being loud, Jason took her lips in a kiss as his other hand pulled her leg back further up his thigh and nudged in just a tiny bit more.
Jason's questing fingers began to create a delicious counterpoint as he finally began moving in and out. In this position there wasn't much movement, more of a rocking back and forth but he could feel Elizabeth's body tightening around him as he took her to the brink then pulled back, then to the brink again making her wait just a bit, then the next time sending her over the edge, while he fought to keep control of his body.
Elizabeth as she had begun to slowly come down off her high realized Jason was still hard as he withdrew from inside of her, with a confused look at his now glistening but still rock hard cock, she asked "Why didn't you come?"
"We are so not finished." he replied then eased out from underneath her and laid her onto her back.
Confused, a bit hurt to realize she had been alone in receiving the delicious pleasure, she shook her head to try and clear out the need only for Jason to rise over her, "That was the softness you deserve, my way of saying I love you."
Seeing the sexy grin, the little bit of mischief in his eyes and Elizabeth slid her legs around his hips, opening her arms to reach up for his shoulder as he nudged inside her swollen and slick flesh, laying claim to her once again.
Their lips met, his arms were braced so that he was holding most of his weight off of her, as he watched their bodies joining below. Inside of her, he could still feel her body convulsing from the last round and it was a struggle to keep his own body under control and fight the urge to mindlessly thrust with only one goal, release.
Feeling Jason's struggle, Elizabeth raised her hips, rolling them just a little to add to his troubles and said "Jason, I want to feel you come, want to feel you buried deep inside of me as your body lets go."
"Witch."he said as his arms trembled, as she used her inner muscles to tempt him into forgetting his plan.
"Hey, we were supposed to be playing by my rules this morning until you took control. I am just taking it back." she said with a with a knowing smile as she ran her hands down his back and to the curve of his ass. With a delicate touch, she watched his shiver as she gently pressed on the indentation there, knowing that it would set him over the edge.
That worked, Jason's weight was now primarily on his knees as his hand went between their two bodies and he said "If that is how you want to play..."
Moaning helplessly as his fingers teased her clit, knowing that the feel of him inside of her and his fingers usually did her in then decided to add words to claim victory in this battle. "I want more, let me in Elizabeth. Let me in until I am touching your cervix, until I am in so deep we can't tell where I end and you begin. Remember that night, the night we consummated our marriage, now good it felt. How you screamed my name, repeatedly as I thrust in so hard you... Right here in this bed, as I came, as we made our baby."
Jason didn't have to finish as Elizabeth wrapped her arms around him tightly while her face was pressed against his throat as begged him to make her come again just like he had that night.
Jason pulled back, then drove in hard, hearing the bed shudder as he wrapped his arms around her and held her tight even as he thrust again and again, each time harder and deeper.
"Yes, yes, please, Jason... more." Elizabeth could only hold on, her mind gone as they gave into the need. Her entire world was centered on the feeling of fullness when he was in her and then a momentary ache at the emptiness when he withdrew. She was silently screaming his name then there was nothing as all she was was whiteness, a blanket of need and desire were all she could feel.
Words slowly faded for her husband as Jason's hand clamped down tightly on her hips as the thrusts suddenly stopped, his body tensed about hers as she came again. The warm and heat of her core had had him already fighting for control but as her body arched he felt that moment, that perfect moment as his body won over his legendary control and he came, buried as deep as possible in what he could only think of as home. His home.
Regaining control, Jason heard Elizabeth say I love and just as she went to respond, their alarm clock went off letting her know she had to get ready for work and Cam could now be heard over the baby monitor."Welcome back to real life."
Kissing his wife as he rose to go get their son, he had pulled on his sweats, then stopped. Leaning down he pressed another kiss on her lips and said "I wouldn't trade it for anything."
Ten years later Elizabeth was sighing as she packed up all the Christmas decorations. "What was that about?"
Looking at her best friend who seemed to be genuinely curious she said "Just thinking about this day ten years ago."
"You remember what you were doing ten years ago, today?" she asked shocked. "I can barely recall what I was doing ten days ago."
Blushing, Elizabeth said "Jason and I woke up early that morning, it set a precedent that until this year we hadn't broken."
"Oh."she said looking at the swollen tummy on her best friend and said"Does that sigh have something to do with what Kelly Lee said to you?"
"Yes."she said pouting then with a laugh said "Jason and I usually have better timing than this. Jake was born in July, Sienna in late September, though, I have to say, I think her birth was the result of our tradition."
"On behalf of your daughter, don't share that with her some day."warned Emily as she laughed. "So what went wrong?"
"I blame Edward." she said scowling. "Jason had to go and fix the Bentley for him last March, I was in the shower after getting the kids off to school and he came home and there was no one in the house. We were uh, a bit reckless."
"I am so glad I don't have to worry about that." she said then admitted a bit ruefully "I wish we had time to be reckless. I had no idea twins were going to be that much work."
Steven and Emily had eventually gotten together but only after dealing with their joint issues regarding inherited genes. For Steven it was his family more specifically his mother's madness, for Emily it was the cancer that had cost her her biological mother and had almost cost her her life.
"Have you heard from AJ?" she asked. While working on an ELQ project, AJ whose only requirement of women were looks and for them to like kids, had decided to chase after Sarah. Sarah had promptly started finding him the perfect girl who had turned out to be Dr. Maggie Smith, his son's pediatrician. Michael and Morgan had become attached quickly to the woman and soon the small family had moved to run ELQ's London office.
Sarah was still proudly single, determined to never marry, to be the best in her profession instead she was a great aunt, spoiling her nieces and nephews.
Across the yard, standing in the window watching her daughter and the Morgan boys playing with their fathers, Georgie was so distracted she never heard herself agreeing to help Diane coax her father into a party for Kate Howard.
"Georgie, what are you staring at?" asked the red head as she came to stand next to her. "Oh, the children."
"And Johnny." she said with a chuckle. "Its the anniversary of his dad's death and with all that we have learned in the last ten years, I was a bit worried."
Anthony's part in the deaths had never come out publicly but Mac had figured it out. He hadn't told his at the time future son in law, instead he had kept it quiet until Johnny had confessed to him later on that his dad had left a letter.
The two men were still close, even with Maxie's husband Dante working for Mac. The press had had a field day with the police commissioner's daughter's marrying sons of dead mobsters, but with Dante being a cop and Johnny having nothing to do with his father's old world, the talk had died, eventually.
Partly because Sonny and Anthony were both dead, and in a fit of irony Morgan having been adopted by AJ who hadn't cared who his parents were, he had just fallen in love with the quiet little boy who was his son's half brother. Bobbie had worried at first, but soon saw that AJ truly did love the innocent little boy.
Alexis had moved to Greece with her girls after the death of Helena Cassadine, she stayed in contact with Diane but in truth, she had no plans to return to Port Charles and had no regrets about what had happened with Sam McCall and her choice to protect her little girl.
There was no one left who cared one way or another about the late Sonny Corinthos, his children had moved on, his wife had always put his partner before him, so she didn't care once she found out there was no money. Even his greatest enemy, Detective Marcus Taggert had moved on and ended up married to Dr. Kelly Lee. He was too busy being a father and a small town sheriff to even recall why he had hated the mobster so much
Hearing the sound of Maxie rushing into the room, Georgie and Diane turned as she showed them the photos from Patrick and Robin's facebook page. "I printed them."
Emma, their daughter had never been to Port Charles, having lived her entire life in Paris. The various family members had visited, including her godmother Brenda Barrett who Robin was careful to keep away from the rest. Brenda hadn't let go of her dreams of a rich husband and had gotten one. A Flemish politician whose family had been horrified at the man's marriage to the former model.
But Brenda had promptly and regularly given him heirs and knowing that she had to behave had settled down and into acting the role of the perfect politician's wife. If she had twinges of regret, she went shopping, it reminded her why she had made the choices she had.
"I have to go speak to Elizabeth about this party." said Maxie as she excitedly planned it for Diane. Maxie had intended a career in fashion, instead she had ended up Port Charles premiere party coordinator.
Back at the Morgan house, Emily and Elizabeth had begun to make lunch, for Emily that meant calling Kelly's and ordering food for her family to be ready when they picked it up, for Elizabeth she had started a pot of soup as she watched her kids playing with their friends and cousins while their father's supervised. They were still discussing all that had gone on recently including the parole hearing for Carly Corinthos, she refused to stop using the name, even when her attorney had suggested that it might be helpful.
"Yes, Carly was refused parole." answered Emily who knew that things would get ugly because eventually even Carly would get out of prison after being sentenced for twenty to forty years.
"Oh, speaking on Carly." Elizabeth lifted the magazine that Nadine had found while visiting Dallas with her husband Jasper Jacks and her two kids. "Her good pal Courtney, she tried to go back to her past."
Taking the magazine Texas, reading all about the old rich man with the much younger stripper trophy wife, she started to giggle which became all out laughter. "Oh damn, its really bad when even eighty year old men don't want you. Seriously, she really... on dear."
Regaining control, Emily read the article about how Eighty year old Texas oil billionaire Ron Winterset had taken out a restraining order on Courtney Matthews a former porn star and stripper who used to be married to the mob after Ms Matthews had tried to climb into his bed naked. "According to the article, Ms. Matthews had hidden in Mrs. Tabby Cat Valour Winterset's walk-in closet after a sexual encounter with her then tried to seduce her lover's husband."
"Read the comment from Tabby Cat." said Elizabeth chuckling.
"Mrs. Winterset, age 23 said 'Courtney wasn't even that good and dearest Ronnie knows all about my little pieces on the side. He is fine with it, and has even participated in threesomes with us but he felt that Courtney was a little too masculine and long in the tooth for his tastes. I mean she is over 35."
"What has the two of you laughing so hard?" asked an entering Maxie who frowned after reading the article. "Seriously, when even someone named Tabby Cat rejects you, you need to hang it up. Oh, I forgot why I am here. Diane is having a dinner party for my aunt in law."
"You know this is all your fault." scolded Georgie who was with her."Did you have to marry Dante? Have to introduce Diane to her fashion icon?"
"Yes."she said serenely. While she didn't get along with her mother in law, she did with the infamous Kate Howard. Her stepmother did as well."Besides, Diane is doing this for revenge after daddy made her attend that policeman's conference with him."
"I heard about that, it was mostly about dealing with defense attorneys wasn't it?" asked Elizabeth just as her back door opened and her children and husband entered. Georgie saw the two silhouettes heading to her dad's house and told Elizabeth she would call her later about the maternity clothes as she grabbed Maxie went to chase down her husband and daughter.
Emily said hello and goodbye to her niece and nephews and went go gather her own family. They had moved into the Hardy house upon the death of Audrey. The truth having come out about her, she had never returned to Port Charles, not even the death of Lila Quartermaine had brought her to town to pay her respects.
Jason helped Jake while Cam was undressing himself and Sienna just hugged all over her mommy. Soon the three children were seated at the dining room table in the expanded house eating lunch and drinking hot cocoa.
Hugging his wife, Jason whispered "So, how are you feeling?"
"Are you sure you really want to know?" she asked impishly.
Now wary, he looked at her and said yes.
Leaning in so that only Jason could hear she said "Well lets just say that Santa wouldn't think I was a very good girl this year if he could read my thoughts."
Blushing a bit, he said "Well this Santa thinks that when you are a bad girl you are being very, very good and that you deserve a gift."
With a raised eye brow she crossed her arms and glared at him. "You might remember you said that six years ago, do you recall the result of that visit to Santa Claus, Mr. Morgan?"
Looking out of the corner of his eye at his five year old daughter he chuckled and said "Well Mrs. Claus, you are already pregnant."
"Yes, I am." she said now pouting a bit as she looked at her large stomach. She loved being pregnant, loved being a mother, but there was something about the holidays, her husband and the santa suit that had her revved up and ready to go.
That evening after creatively finding a way to please each other, Elizabeth asked "Did anyone figure it out?"
"That we were Santa Claus this year, nope." he said with a smirk. "Its up to Jasper Jacks next year and lets hope we keep the lucky streak going."
Since the year that Anthony Zachara had played Santa Claus, various residents had taken up the challenge of secretly helping those in need and the various public institutions in need. However instead of outlandish presents to the already wealthy, they had settled on one item, a way of marking those who the committee felt had done a great job of just being good people who helped others.
Each years, various team members also got the symbol so as to cover who was actually Santa. This year, Elizabeth had chose a plain Christmas tree only covered in snow for the woman and for the men, a paperweight that looked like a snowflake. Symbols with meaning for the long married couple that no one but them understood.
As they kissed before Elizabeth fell asleep, Jason eased out of their bed and went to check on their family. Cam was fast asleep, his eleven year old body tangled in his blankets as on the floor the dog that had been a present the previous year from Santa Johnny slept.
The beautiful chocolate lab opened his eyes and padded along beside Jason as he went to check on Jake who like usual was sleeping with half his toy box. Clearing away the mixture of cars and motorcycles, Jason saw that there was once again a bike in the fish tank.
Shaking his head in laughter at Jake's insistence that his gold fish liked bikes too, he soon had his son straightened out in bed and went to check on his little angel. His daughter slept perfectly still, covered just like when her parents had tucked her into bed.
Hiding his laughter again, Jason quickly pressed a kiss on her forehead and walked out of the room. Sure enough, as soon as the door was halfway closed, he heard the sound of his daughter hissing her cat's name and then the sound of a cat pouncing from wherever he had been hidden and had soon joined her mistress in bed.
Downstairs, double checking the locks, Jason went to the mantle and found the photo of himself as Santa holding a very young Cam and tried to imagine what their newest daughter would look like. Would she looked like Cam who was truly his mother's son, or like Jake who looked like him, or like her big sister Sienna who looked like a combination of both of them.
Turning out the lights and rejoining his wife, Jason was soon settled in for the night, grateful for what he had gained, the family he had longed dreamed of and the wife who was the owner of his heart.
THE END!
