Is me! I'm back! This has slowly become a WIP, but I think there will only be one or two more chapters, three at most. And the rest of it will be in 3rd person.

"I think you mean that we have some things to ask." Sam was suddenly standing behind Mel and Jesse. They all gave a start.

"What do you mean?" Cole asked.

"I'm not dumb, and I have a nose. Wear my sweaters often?" Cole was speechless. "I knew we were related the first time I met them. I was just waiting to see if they were willing to tell me themselves."

"Oh. Ah, well."

"Lets go out side and clear the air, so to speak." Cole took Aaron from Sam and walked out side.

"What do you want to know?"

"Everything. Namely why you are here" Sam's tone left no room, an order, not a question.

Melonie sighed. "We-" Jesse shot her a glare. "Okay, I decided Jesse needed a wake up call. And that the best way to give him that would be to go back in time and have dad deliver it."

"That would be me, I assume." Sam questioned, an eyebrow raised. Melonie nodded. He sighed. "Well, anything else I should know about?"

"No?" Jesse's statement came out as more of a question.

"Well, two outta three ain't bad."

"What's that supposed to mean?" Jesse's tone was indignant.

"A least two out of three of my kids are able to own up to their . . . indiscretions." A voice said from the shadows. A very annoyed voice. The owner of said voice stepped out of the shadows, looking much like he did when he was 16, excepting he was a bit taller, had more scars, and an air of authority about him.

It was Sam.

"Dad!" Melonie and Jesse said at the same time that Cole said "Sammy".

"I do NOT wanna know. Both of you are in huge trouble."

"Yes, dad." Melonie said. Jesse just ran over and hugged Sam. Sam wrapped his arms around his boy.

"I love you, daddy." J whispered.

"Love you too, buddy."

"Hey," said Cole, "don't i get a hug?" His voice was thick with tears. Older Sam held out one of his arms.

"Yeah, sweetheart." Soon all but younger Sam and Aaron hugging. "Lets go in."

"Okay. But, wait. How are you here?"

"Later, Cole, later."
