It has been a fantastic ride thank you for all those who commented and who stuck this story out. I have greatly appreciated all of your interest in this story kept me writing. Writing the ending to this story has been challenging because I didn't know where I should end it.
The Park
When she got to the clearing that's when she saw him she ranso fast launching herself into his arms crying. "Hi manita" don't cry Elle please he said holding her tight. I thought I was the only one left she cried " where have you been" she said punching him.
"Ohh that's how you do a brother" he said with a smile abuse me Oliver says, I missed you so much Elena said. I missed you manita you have no idea, especially when i remembered you guys he said as little Ollie fell asleep.
I think we should go home it's there naptime and I want to know what's going on and why Tony didn't say anything Sam said. Oliver whispered home I like the sound of that He said, umm Jason i have to get home and see what's going on.
Sam I'm not leaving you or the kids with him we have no idea were he had been or if that is really him Jason said. Elena scoffed fine what is your birth name and your full name when you changed it she asked.
Ughh really I don't want to say that out loud he looked around Manolo Oliveras Tavares Jr. And Oliver Manolo De La Rosa he whispered. Sam and Elena laughed yup That's my brother no one and I mean no one knows that.
Olly lift up your shirt show them the scar that I left when in was first learning to stitch some one up Elena says. Or what is his cousins nickname K.k said from behind them "Stitch" Oliver said with a smile.
As they hugged man I missed you primo, one more Sam said what was our song that you sang that you would sing. Oliver smiled Un be so by aventura he says what is our wedding date July 12,2008 he said.
Your were so surprised that day E.J walked you down the aisle he wanted that moment with you so bad Oliver said. "why are we trying to prove shit to this asshole Santiago said hugging Oliver.
Don't do that again you fucker , wait until Kari sees you she is going to freak my father too he finished. "Vamos familia" Santiago said see you around Morgan, I will call you Sam said with little Olly in her arms.
I have to do this my self Jason just don't say anything Sam said, I'm not going to hurt my wife old blue eyes Oliver said shaking his head. Jason stood in front of him " Really we are back to this after all the heartache you and yours caused my family shit" Oliver said.
He walked around Jason as he hugged Sierra and E.J as Miles held Esme as they walked back to the car. She dropped the kids off were not happy about that by her parents house who had just recently gotten married.
When she walked in the house Tony and Lana where there Sam you made it have a seat as everyone sat waiting patiently. She couldn't believe it all the times she prayed that he would come back and here he was sitting here in their home.
I guess I will go then Tony will go Oliver said remember when I told you my former employer made contact and I turned him down. We had just brought Esme home and I wasn't going back my place was here with my wife and my kids.
He didn't like that at all but I'm use to being a ghost so he couldn't keep steady tabs on me. But that night at the hospital was a distraction he drugged me with something. I don't know what it was but I don't know what happened because I woke up and I didn't even know my own name.
I remembered nothing he approached me had pictures of me when I had just joined his league. So I trusted him but something was off and I couldn't place so I went back to work.
But I couldn't focus I would hear a baby crying or kids laughing and it would throw me and I couldn't understand why. Where were you Florio asked, I was all over mostly Europe and the middle east Olly responds.
"Tony" Oliver said, well mid last year Lana and I started to notice Olly's trademark his calling card popping up all over. And we thought it was a copycat at first, but every assassin has their own trademark.
That's how you get paid that's how they know it's you so we searched but every time we got close he was gone. So we set a trap to send an associate of mine to join the league join Godbody's cabinet and see.
And it took months of recon but we found him and he didn't remember anything he did something called scapping on Oliver. He knew he couldn't get Oliver willingly because Ollie would fight him on it and he didn't want that.
It's a black market drug it's lethal and just needed him to forget his life so that he would be complicit. And it worked for a while he kept drugging him some how. When I approached him he didn't remember me but I know my brother.
So I put myself in danger to see what his reaction would be and his instincts took hold because he saved my ass Tony finishes. That's when I started getting these flashes I couldn't explain Oliver said.
I told Tony he kind of filled me in and we went to work I gave the guy what he craved then I took it all away Oliver said. I stop going to the places he suggested that's when I figured how he was keeping the drug inn my system to block my memories.Make me his successor I let him think he had me before I ended it all. Then I worked on getting my memories back which didn't take long Oliver said.
His family was livid and wanted blood, Sam was angry and hurt why would he do this she asked. Because I wouldn't walk away from you and the kids I told him to never contact me again.And you don't say no to him, he was mad and bitter that I walked away from that life. He knew I would never leave you or the kids that's what he said when I confronted him before I killed him.
Are you sure he is gone Elena asked, yes I am positively sure his entire cabinet is gone. With the exception of Tony's associate, I set up everyone and they died one by one Oliver finishes. When did you get your memories back Sam asked i woke up a couple of days ago after trying this surgery getting the chip he had put in my head Oliver answered. Tony spoke i had him see the specialist but there were complication in the surgery which lead to him being in a coma.
Why didn't you say anything Tony i would have helped get him back Sam said, these aren't mobsters Sam these people will hurt you and your kids to keep you and Oliver in line. These are assassin that care nothing about you or your kids or your family and he wanted Olly at all cost we burned the league that means there is no going back to that. And i would never jeopardize anyone in this family Sam couldn't do that " THIS IS MY FAMILY" i didnt have a childhood where i could be a kid Tony finished.
I watched my mother and father being murder for not giving into the gangsters in Colombia, My older sister was forced to be a drug mule she died Sam carrying the drugs inside her. She was a 15 year old girl who was forced into alot of things they put me work and i cried for my father and that is were Olly found me he said getting choked up. And i seen what your kids went through and i would never ever want them to be hurt again ever i would lay down my life for this family.
So no i couldn't say anything before we were ready and before if we knew he would wake up why put you through that again he said. Sam took a deep breathe she walked over to him" Antonio you are family and i know you had it hard" and i understand she said hugging him. So did Elena and Karina its ok Tone she said thank you for bringing this asshole home Karina said. Oliver looked is that a wedding ring he said looking at Karina's finger she laughed yeah it is Karina said. Did she marry who i think she did Oliver said flabbergasted as everyone laughed, "SHOCKER RIGHT" K.K said lauughing.
Are you serious" Oliver said Sam shoved him gently "hey my cousin have you know is amazing man" Sam said, not doubting that Sammy but he isnt Kari she is a hitter for organize crime Oliver replied. Well my cousin left me in charge off his major security company so i have gone legit so has Santiago and we have hired E.J and Sierra for the summer. But your girl she is a fighter so im going to ave to let her do some real work eventually but when your settled come down to the office Karina said.
Sonny's Office
I thought you were going to be with Sam and the kids Sonny asked noticing his friends demeanor" whats going on" he said. Well i intend on spending time with her and the kids but while we were there guess who shows up.
"Who" Sonny asked, Oliver Jason said angrily
Sonny looked confused "How is that" when he died in the hospital explosion
I don't know Sonny but he is alive just as Carly stormed in Jason what are you doing here she said stopping as she looked around. "I work here Carly" Jason said, I know that but Sonny said you weren't going to be here you were going to be with Sam and the kids she said. Did you talk to her yet about adopting the kids Carly asked as Jason sclosed his eyes and shook his head and sonny turned and walked to the drink cart.
She looked between him and Sonny " What happen did she say no" Jason those kids need a father and your the best man for the job. No Jason you deserve this those kids are still hurting and you and strong and patient ans resilent they will come around she said. Just stop Carly enough just leave it alone they have a father he said solemnly, Yeah but he is gone Jason and yes it took almost two years but you and Sam have reconnected.
Carly let it go Jason said, whats going on does she not want to let him go i don't understand she says. Its not that Jason said he isnt dead like we thought he was and he showed up today at the park i dont know the story i gave Sam that time. How is that possible Jason Carly asked, I dont know Carly he didn't give me the story Carly Jason said running his hands over his face. Then what are you doing here Jason don't hand your family over to him Jason get up and fight she said.
Im not going to put Sam in that position Carly Jason says, are you just going to let him push you aside i mean come on talk to Diane to see what you can do about adopting them. I haven't even talked to Sam about that Carly and now with him back its not going to happen Jason says. We don't know where he has been you can't let him just come in and push you out you need answers Sonny said. Im going to talk to Sam Jason said as he left, no schemes Carly i mean it Sonny said it didn't work out to well the last time.
Sam and Oliver penthhouse
Hours later Sam let Oliver spend time with the kids while she get some time to herself after telling her parents what happened how happy everyone was to see him. Off Course he gave them the waterdown version of his kidnapping, Oliver had the little ones climbing all over him and he relished every moment of it watching them laugh.
When the doorbell rang he got up to answer " Hey Morgan Sam isnt here" i can to speak to you sure come in he said letting him in. She left you with the kids Jason asked yes they are my kids Jason Oliver replied knowing were it was heading. They don't know you Jason said well to popular belief they do know me through video but they know me Oliver coutered. Right he said smiling at Esme who waived at Jason " dayson look papi she said innocently " see" Oliver said smiling in that moment he was happy they showed him those home videos.
Jason bent down i see he said kissing her on top her head, " where have you been" Jason said as her turned to face Oliver or did you just decide to walk away leaving Sam holding the bag. Listen Jason i don't owe you an explanation on where i have been or what i have been through Oliver answered. And furthermore if i need to remind you that you don't intimidate me i will Oliver said as he was making faces at little Ollie who was giggling.
Jason handed him the papers Oliver looked it over and laughed you are dumber then i thought if you think im signing this b.s he aid tearing it up throwing it on the coffee table. Have you forgotten what kind of man i am Jason im not signing away my rights to my kids ever, now i realize i kind put a halt on your relations with my wife. What Sam decides is on her but i will never turn my back on my children Oliver says, she doent need you she was doing just fine without Jason said.
I know Sam is a strong woman who always lands on her feet but this is my house my family not yours Jason and im sure you wished i was really dead but im not Oliver says. You think you can come back after two and half years and just expect her to want you Jason says, I dont expect anything Jason if she wants a divorce me i will respect her choice.
But your clearly bothered by my reappearance that you went as far as to have papers drawn up and just want me gone but your mistaken If you think that i will just go away Oliver finished." Is that true Jason" Sam asked from behind them " Oh hi Sammy" Oliver said i will let you guys talk he said picking up the kids and going upstairs.
Sam we don't know where he has been for the last two and half years or why he was gone i dont trust him Jason said I know where he has been and what he has been through. But my question is why would you go behind my back and get papers drawn up i would never ask him that of him Jason ever Sam said. Before he came back i was going to ask you marry me and to adopted the kids as my own it would be open and shut with the younger ones but harder with the older ones because he adopted them Jason said.
Now i know we haven't been back together long Sam but i didn't want to waste anymore time i still don't he said taking her hand . She let go of his hand im still married Jason and i have to figure this out because its not just me i have my kids to think about. Okay so i can set you guys up in a safe house while you do that Jason says, I'm not going to remove their home how is that fair to them this is their home Jason she says.
I need to make this decision on my own and i need you to understand that Sam says, Then he has to go Sam so you can make this choice without him making it harder Jason says. His kids want him here hell i want here so i know that this is real that i dont close my eyes and it was all a dream she says. And the truth of thre matter i missed him not just as my husband but as my friend and joking around with him making breakfast together just regular things just.
He gave me a life where my past and my mistakes didn't make me he gave me unconditional , unwaivering love and i can't throw that away I can't Jason don't ask me too She said with tears in her eyes. So where does that leave us and what we were trying to build he said " i don't know Jason i don't have answer for you i'm sorry she says. When the doorbell rang Sam opened hey Alex she said hugging you remember my friend Jason hi the man said shaking Jason's hand.
When Oliver came downstairs Alex looked in shock so its true he said giving Oliver five pulling him in for a hugged " its nice to see you brother" he said getting shocked up. Man whats up with skinhead hair cut Alex Said Pulling back looking at him he smiled at Sam its really him he said laughing man. " Wow man she is never going to believe this" Alex said pulling out his phone to facetime his wife "hey babe its true he said turning the camera to Oliver.
As the woman covered her mouth in shock as the tears rolled down her face" Sam and the kids must be so happy" he turned the phone to Sam. We are the kids are through the roof the little ones especially Sam said with a smile. Oh i know its too soon but once you get settled Olly come out for a visit i'm sure Cayden would love to see Esme she said i have to go babe she said haying up.
Well enjoy the food man okay im glad your alive Alex said hugging Oliver again he hugged Sam and nodded at Jason then he left. Well i will go get the kids so we can eat Oliver said going back upstairs, I will call you Jason when i have made up my mine she hugged him he felt her pulling away already . I will always love Sam just comeback to me he said as left closing the door behind him, as he heard the kids coming downstairs.
Oliver came down with Esme in his arms and he was holding little Oliver by his pants as the little boy sucked on his pacifier as the older kids behind him laughing. All she could was shake her head and laugh watching the pure bliss on her face and her kids they were whole again. Knowing this wasn't going to be an easy decision to make as they made there way to eat dinner.
it had been weeks since Oliver came home and he told her all the things he went through and after some digging they found out Helena put the chip in his head. And that sat Sam on a warpath when she confronted Helena Oliver had Karina deal with Helena , Sam had to be pried off Helena but he let her get her hits before.
Jason thought it was ill advised but Oliver didn't care because he had lans for the old bitch after hearing what she did to his cousin he ultimately had her killed. His former life was behind him he was no longer an assassin he worked at the security company he owned he loved being home with the kids. Just doing regular stuff helping with homework or just listening to them talk, Sam couldnt help but to remember why she fell in love with him in the first place.
This man was devoted to her hundred percent it was in that moment when she saw him one night on the couch with the kids drapped all over him. The way he engaged them this is what she wanted since he disappeared here with there kids, his love made is what made her whole again not afraid to be herself.
With all the lost she had suffered here was the universe giving her back the one thing she prayed for for two years how could she throw that away she thought as she stared at her wedding rings and the wedding book. That is where Jason found her when he came by in thta moment he knew she looked at him with tears in her eyes. He sighed don't be i know this wasnt an easy decision for you to make and i didnt want to make it hard but did want you to choose me. But i want you happy Sam and i know what he meant to you i was there the day you brought little Olver to his grave hoping and praying that he 'd come back.
And i do love you Sam but i knew he got a bigger piece of your heart because he gave you the life ygou always wanted Jason said with tears in his eyes . Jason kissed her on her forehead be happy i mean it he said , she grabbed his hand i want that for you Jason . Im sorry it couldn't be me she said wiping the tears from her eyes me too but i knew when we got back together it wasnt the Same. Just as Oliver came in with the little ones who were sleeping " Is everything okay" he said looking between them yeah it is Jason said.
Take care of her he said looking at Oliver who looked at him with a raised eyebrow as Sam walked to the window. "Always " he responded as Jason left. Sam took a deep breathe and turned around to face Oliver he stretched his hand out ulling her closer to him. When dropped something in his hand would you put that back on my finger he looked down at her wedding rings then back up at her in shock.
"Really" he said sliding her rings on as she shook her head yes with tears rolling down her face, I was sure you were going to ask for a divorce he said as she grabbed his face and kissed him.
My reason for changing at the end I was going to ended it with JaSam but as I watch the show and im disgusted by the lack of self awareness. And the complete not even taking the time to know Sam as who she is now and the lack if respect showed for her as a Sam fan is a no go for me. I loved where they took her the last couple of years she was self aware , cofident and independent and they threw it all away and i feel like her character to lose instead of Jason catching up.
And it was because she has always dropped everything and everyone to run to him. She made all the sacrifices so he didn't have too and he has the audacity to act as though because she isn't jumping at his whim that she isn't making her own choices. it seems like he tells her one thing and everyone else another and I am a Sam fan first. So in the end I choose olly because lets be honest the he is charismatic and he isn't afraid to do the work in the relationship.
hope you enjoyed
THE END
