PRESENT:

Jennifer wouldn't remember much after her fall, for the rest of the night she was in and o out of consciousness, Jonathan had called Doctor Kendall, who came quickly and declared that she had a minor concussion as well as a mild panic attack, Jonathan had briefly explained that about meeting Fiona and asked if there had been any possibility of a switch when the girls were born.

At First Susan Kendall had been offended, she'd been Jennifer's doctor since Jennifer had come to California in the late 70s, and seen her through the first pregnancy and miscarriage, held her hand when they wheeled her into surgery and when Jennifer had woken up, Susan been the first one to see her and assure her that more children were possible.

But the more she thought about it, the more things started to add up and Susan decided to go back into Jennifer's files to see if she could find any truth to what Jonathan had asked her.

Jonathan sent the girls to Jocelyn's room so that they could get to know each other, it seemed strange to just abandon Fiona but his priority was always Jennifer, when she fell he was pretty sure his heart had stopped beating for a moment, He finally understood why she'd been so upset with him when he came home after the crash, he picked Jennifer off the floor and practically ran her to the couch and screamed for one of the girls to call Susan.

Poor baby Jack, he'd wondered out of bed as he did every night and his Mommy would usually bring him back to bed, with the promise of extra stories and would rub his head until he fell asleep but tonight when he woke up, there was a strange girl, Daddy was yelling at Josie about something and Mommy was asleep at the bottom of the stairs, He was confused and sat behind the Potted Plant, waiting for someone to tell him it was a dream but no one came and after awhile, he fell asleep sitting up.

Jocelyn wasn't sure what to make of this strange girl, she was different than anyone she'd ever come into contact with and the fact Daddy had thrown them together in Jocelyn's room made it even more difficult.

Fiona was just grateful to be out of the Orphanage, it didn't matter she was with a strange family and a Mom who less than 20 seconds after looking at her, passed out, she was grateful to be in a room that didn't have 20 cots, the only thing Fiona missed about the orphanage was her teddy bear that her Mom had given her just before she was taken to Mission Street, in Jonathan's haste to get her back to Willow Pond, she'd left her Ted, she couldn't remember a time she didn't sleep with him except for the time Mary Alice Robbins had hidden after Fiona had glued Mary Alice's hand to her forehead while she was in the shower.

Fiona got the feeling that her new sister wasn't exactly thrilled with the idea of sharing her room based on the fact Jocelyn told her to sleep on the bay window and handed her a blanket and pillows then parked herself in front of her computer and didn't say a word for the rest of the night.

Except for when she finally turned off the light and growled "Don't get too comfortable, Daddy will come to his senses and kick you back to the orphanage faster than you can say Oliver Twist"

Fiona was so taken back; she simply picked up her pillow and blanket and went downstairs, wondering around the couch and piano, she noticed the pictures of Jonathan, Jennifer and Jocelyn with Baby Jack, they seemed like such a happy family she hated to intrude, putting down her blanket and pillow, she found her sneakers by the door where she'd left them earlier and opened the door, expecting an alarm when she heard nothing, she crept out the door and found herself in the backyard, which was bigger than anything she'd ever seen before, "Crap" She mumbled and turned back, only to realize that the door had locked behind her.

She was unfamiliar with the yard or how far it stretched and the wall was too high for her to climb, she wasn't even sure which window was Jocelyn's for her to call but she was pretty sure Jocelyn wouldn't come down anyway.

She found an empty lounge chair by the pool and sat down on it, her eyes finally closing in exhaustion and wondering if coming there had been a mistake.

Jennifer had woken up and found Jonathan sitting up in the chair, still holding her hand but asleep with his neck to the side and his jacket as a blanket, She carefully got up and kissed his forehead, he barely moved.

She went to check on her children, Jack sound asleep with his Tiger and Jocelyn with the Minnie Mouse that Max had given her for her second birthday but there was no one occupying the other bed in Jocelyn's bedroom, typically reserved for Jocelyn's best friend Rosalie.

Where was Fiona? Jennifer went through the rest of the guest bedrooms but she was nowhere to be found, but something drew Jennifer to the window and when she looked out, she saw Fiona lying by the pool.

Worried, Jennifer rushed downstairs and out the door, keeping it open with the kitchen chair, remembering the time Jonathan had locked all four of them outside during a lighting storm and how he'd had to break the window because Freeway's doggy door had been closed up after one too many close encounters.

She walked slowly to the chair and noticed that Fiona was sound asleep, in the pale moon light she could have passed for Jonathan's twin, from his long legs to the shape of his lips and ears, the nose was all hers, she couldn't resist and brushed back a hair, it even felt like her own hair.

"My baby" She whispered sitting on the opposite chair from Fiona

A FEW DAYS LATER

Susan Kendall's office

The Four of them sat in Front of Dr. Kendall's office, nervously anticipating what the Doctor would tell them, if the DNA test they'd taken proved that Fiona was indeed the daughter of Jonathan and Jennifer Hart which would mean, at least in Jocelyn's eyes that she was an orphan.

Jennifer was sure she would pass out from holding her breath, while Jonathan gripped her hand and nearly broke her knuckles, Jocelyn had become angry-silent over the past few days and Fiona just wanted to go back to Mission Street, the tension was too much in the Hart house, the only person she felt a connection was baby Jack because he wasn't old enough to understand the whole mess.

Dr. Kendall came in and sat down in front of them, pulling out a file, she read the notes quickly. "We did a trio test on all four of you and got the results back"

Jennifer closed her eyes tightly

"Jocelyn Mae Hart is one 100% percent not the biological child of Jonathan and Jennifer Hart, Fiona Charlotte Hayes is however genetically linked to them"

Jennifer gasped while Jocelyn jumped up and yelled, "This is pure bullshit! If she's Jocelyn then who am I" and ran out of the room

Jonathan chased after her while Fiona sat back in awe and thought about Jocelyn's reaction.

Jonathan chased Jocelyn out of the Doctor's office and into the parking lot where she cried and sat down on the ground, he didn't know what to say to her instead he hugged her and let her cry, "It's okay Jocelyn"

"That's just it, if she's Jocelyn, then who am I supposed to be?" She sobbed into his arms

Lifting her chin, "You've always been Jocelyn Hart, my daughter, DNA or not and just because Fiona is around doesn't mean we love you any less."

Jocelyn cried, she felt like she'd lost her whole identity and she had no clue what to do now.

Back in the Doctor's Office, Jennifer had taken Fiona's hand, "Sweetheart?"

Fiona was so stunned, she barely heard her, "Yah"

"Are you okay?

Fiona didn't answer and Jennifer didn't press it.

Jonathan returned with Jocelyn and they sat together in front of the Doctor,

"What do we do now?" Jonathan asked Dr. Kendall

"I would advise that you should contact the lawyer and arrange for Fiona to be moved to your home if that's what you want, you will have to file for adoption."

Jonathan nodded "Then that's what we'll do" and with that he stood up, gestured to the others to tell them it was time to go home.

BACK AT WILLOW POND

The moment they had gotten back, the girls had scattered and Jonathan went into his office to speak with his lawyer while Jennifer went to relieve their babysitter.

After a while Jennifer wondered downstairs into the office where Jonathan was just hanging up

"Hey you," He pulled her into his lap

"Hi" She said quietly

"What's wrong?"

"Are we doing the right thing about Fiona? What if she doesn't want to be our daughter?"

"She doesn't have a choice, she's our daughter"

"But what about Jocelyn, her reaction in the doctor's office is only the beginning and I'm not even sure how I feel, what about Fiona? We have a lot of thinking to before we make any decisions,"

"The decision's already been made, all we have to do is sign the papers and she's ours"

Jennifer jumped up, "How could you just do this without me? She's not a car, she's a kid and there's a lot to be considered. We had a right to discuss this as a family."

"Because the longer we wait, the harder it's going to be," Jonathan couldn't understand why she was so upset

"It's going to be even harder when the story breaks and the girls are thrown into the spotlight! We have a job to protect them, we don't know anything about Fiona and I know you've had your investigators look into her but we as parents need to know her on a personal level like with Jack and Jocelyn and you've just taken that away from me. You told me after the crash when you came back to me and promised that we would never make another parental decision alone. Maybe if you stopped thinking like a CEO and started thinking like a father, you'd realize what's in front of your face" With that She turned and left.

He sat for a second and then chased after her, "Why with you I'm the bad guy? All I wanted to do was fix a mess and that's what I did. I made decisions like I have to do every day and she's a kid, she doesn't know what she wants, neither does Jocelyn but they'll both deal with it because they don't have a choice."

"Sometimes I don't even know you, this attitude isn't you and I want my husband back" She ran upstairs

The kids had overheard them and Jocelyn was upset, "Do you see what you've caused? Mom and Dad never fought until you came along, just go back to Mission Street"

Fiona was devastated and decided that when everyone went to bed, she would leave.

After their argument and Jennifer going to their bedroom to cool off, Jonathan realized he should have included her and went into their bedroom to apologize.

He walked into their bedroom and called for her except she didn't answer, she must have been furious at him; he walked into their walk-in closet and was two steps in when the door slammed behind him.

He whipped around to find his wife, instead of wearing the pale lavender dress from earlier changed into a much different outfit.

She had put on a bustier that emphasized the curves that had come with giving birth to his children and wore her highest heels that gave her at least three inches of added height.

He couldn't breathe and when she took his hand, he nearly ejaculated in his pants, she pushed him down onto the vanity chair and pushed him down, and sitting on his lap she kissed him while unbuckling his pants

"Oh Baby, I hate when we fight" She breathed heavily, kissing his neck

"Me too," He ran his hands over her body

It was the first time in a long time they'd made love some place other than their bedroom and it was exciting, normally it was late at night after he came home from work and it was the usually routine.

Except for one night when she'd gone out by the poor to take Freeway Junior out, which was Normally Jocelyn's job but she'd been studying so hard for mid-terms that she'd fallen asleep and her mother didn't have the heart to wake her up so she'd quietly taken the dog out past the pond and down by the bridge when she saw Jonathan's car pull up, she waited until the car stopped and let Jr. out to greet him, Jonathan was surprised to see the dog but when Jennifer wolf-whistled at him.

Instantly he forgot how exhaust he was and followed her whistle to the guest house, leaning against the door, he couldn't stop kissing her, except in between breaths to ask where the kids were, she had completely forgotten about them and couldn't remember herself.

She didn't care.

He'd never been this wild or crazy before, most of the time He was impulsively restraint except for a few times on Hart one before but this time, she wasn't sure what had come over him but she loved every moment of it.

Back in the dressing, she was making Jonathan Crazy when someone pounded on their bedroom door.

"Mom?" Jocelyn yelled through the thick double doors

"Jocelyn, It's very late," She said putting her hand over Jonathan's mouth, who kissed her hand and with his other hand, reached his hand under her bustier, she squirmed and tried to push his hands away.

"Fiona's gone."
