This is part 1of what I have deemed the Morgan Adventure Series. It started out with one story but had branched out. Let me know what you think.

 This story takes place after Jason asked Elizabeth to leave Port Charles with him back in 2001. Instead of saying no, like on the show, she said yes!

Rated PG-13


“We love because it's the only true adventure”~Nikki Giovanni


Elizabeth didn’t know what she was doing but all she knew was that she had 7 hours to pull off her surprise for her husband. It was his birthday today and she wanted to do something nice for him for all the hard work he did for her and their family. They had been married for 6 years and had two children, Jacob Martin and Alison Rose. When they first met they were both decided that they were going to live life to the fullest. He would pick her up with his motorcycle and they would travel the cliff roads going very fast along the curves. Her grandmother used to warn her telling her that Jason was going to get her killed one day but Elizabeth didn’t care. Nothing they could do or say was going to separate her from Jason. When she couldn’t take her Grams and Lucky ordering her around anymore and he was sick of Sonny and the Quartermaines trying to run his life they decided to leave Port Charles to travel the country first but eventually back packing through Europe. They earned money working odd jobs in every city they landed in or worked for room and board. The times they were truly desperate Jason would hustle the money playing pool using Elizabeth as a decoy to throw the men off. He hated using her like that but she was so good at playing the men that he would just let her work her magic on them and before they knew it they were out of hundreds of Euros or dollars depending what country they were in. Of course they’d have to make hasty exits once it was found that they were con artists. They would hitchhike into the next town and work and live there until they had run out of money, and scammed someone else. They lived like this for over a year until Elizabeth found out she was pregnant. Jason had wanted to settle down but Elizabeth fearing that he would get bored convinced him that she could do it. They did slow down and got married in Italy and stayed there living in Tuscany until she gave birth. But as soon as Jacob Martin was old enough to walk they began traveling again. This time they came back to the states and decided to start in California and end back in Port Charles, NY so that their families could meet Jacob.

After about 6 months into their stay in Port Charles Elizabeth found herself pregnant once again. That effectively put an end to their nomadic lifestyle. They decided to make a life in Port Charles. Elizabeth went to nursing school and Jason opened his own bike shop with a loan he got from the Quartermaines. The day Elizabeth graduated her water broke as she crossed the stage to receive her diploma. Jason whisked her to the hospital where she gave birth to their baby girl Alison. They had settled into domestic life quite well. Their routine everyday was pretty simple. They both would wake up at 7 am every morning get dressed, get the kids dressed, Jason would feed them breakfast and Elizabeth would get their bags ready for daycare and school. Jason would drop Jacob off at his school and Alison would go to work with Elizabeth and stay at the General Hospital daycare. Although they were both content with their life Elizabeth always looked back on their adventures wistfully. She loved her kids with all her heart but she missed the days when it was just she and Jason against world and she assumed he felt the same way. Sure he never said it but there were days when she would catch him a faraway place. She could tell he was thinking about the good old days also. Since they couldn’t travel anywhere she decided to bring the world to him. She secretly taken the day off even thought she made a big production of getting ready for work. That is of course after she woke him up by administering a birthday blow job on his sleeping form. He awoke to find his wife’s mouth wrapped around his cock. “Happy Birthday” she said as she bobbed her head up and down. Before he knew it he was coming into her mouth. He wanted to make love to her but she was already up and out of bed telling him she was going to be late. They did their routine and Elizabeth drove to the hospital dropped Alison off but she turned around and went back home to began her plans. Her plan was to set up different countries in different parts of the living room and cook a dish from that country. She wanted to pick the places that meant the most to them. She chose Germany because that’s the first place they made love outdoors and started their cons. Then she chose Paris because that is where he taught her how to ride a motorcycle and where she found out she was pregnant and finally Italy because that’s where they settled down. She had gone to the party store and bought things that represented those various countries and began decorating the house. Before she knew it three hours had gone by and it was time to start cooking. She had arranged for her grandmother to take both the kids tonight so she didn’t have to worry about them. But she was worried Jason might decide to come home early from the bike shop. She called him just in case.
“Hey babe.” She said trying not to sound suspicious.
“Hi honey, what’s up?”
“Nothing can’t a wife just call her husband just because.” She said then wincing because she knew Jason would see through that.
“Uh sure, it’s just that you don’t usually call until your lunch break.”
“Oh, well yeah I decided to take it early today. Speaking of, what time do you think you’ll be home tonight?”
“Uh, I was actually of thinking of letting Spinelli close the shop tonight and come home early.”
“What time is early?” she asked him knowing questioning any further was going to set bells off.
“Why? Elizabeth please don’t tell me you’re planning me a surprise birthday party.”
No, dear I am not planning a surprise birthday party. I swore I wouldn’t after last year’s disaster.” She said rolling her eyes. “I just want to know when you’ll be in home because I have an errand to run after work and need you to be home with the kids. So what time are you coming home?”
“I’ll be home by 6.”
“Thanks, gotta go. Work is calling, love you!” She said hanging up not even waiting for him to respond.

Jason hung up the phone and started to wonder just what was his wife up too. Things with her were always so unpredictable. He remembered the day she declared her independence and decided to leave town with him. They took off for Europe where they lived for over three years before coming back to Port Charles to settle down. He never regretted one moment with her. He remembered the first time they made love. They were in Germany and they both finally admitted that they wanted to be more than friends and made love to each other. She had been shy about it the first few times they made love. She never wanted to initiate sex but somewhere between Germany and Holland she had lost all reserve and went for it. They were having sex anywhere and everywhere they could find a little privacy. Then came the con games. She would go into a bar pretend to be a clueless to the art of billiards, lure the men into a false sense of superiority and then she would take them for all that they had. Of course with Jason sitting in a corner having full view of Elizabeth in case any of the men tried to harm her. Once she had all their money they would ride out of town and go to another country and repeat the process. Those were fun days, but truthfully he was happy when Elizabeth got pregnant and they slowed down. Although the adventures were fun, it was not the life he wanted for her. She deserved a stable life and he worked hard to give that to her when they returned back to Port Charles. He had officially ended all association with Sonny and had worked on his relationship with the Quartermaines. He also worked hard to get on Elizabeth’s grandmother, Audrey, good side. She wasn’t that hard to pull on his side because the minute she met Jacob she was a goner. She accepted the whole Morgan family with no reservations.
When Elizabeth became pregnant again with Alison he was overjoyed when he learned he was having a girl then cried when he realized that she would date someday. Elizabeth had assured him that little girls always marry someone like their father but that didn’t make him feel any better. He always knew that Elizabeth was too good for him and he didn’t want his daughter with someone that wasn’t worthy. His daughter Alison was the light of his life besides his wife and son. He loved his son but there was just something about when he came home and his little girl would run into his arms. Those were the moments he knew that settling down with Elizabeth was the best decision he ever made. They had really settled themselves into domestic life in Port Charles. But that didn’t slow down their sense of adventure. There was the time Elizabeth decided that having sex in her grandmother’s house, while she played with the kids downstairs, was a great idea. He knew it wasn’t but went along with her anyway. Things were going well until she took off her boot and threw it over his shoulder and it went crashing into the mirror on the dresser and shattered it into a million pieces. Jason didn’t have time to get fully dressed before Grams came charging up to see if everyone was alright and got quite the eye full of Jason’s body. He swore to this day that Grams still blushed when she looked at him. Then there was the time Elizabeth decided she wanted to ride with him. Although he taught her how to ride in Paris, the bike he taught her on was nothing like the one she rented. Before he had a chance to tell her what a bad idea this was she had taken off down the street and hit a row of trash cans. Jason had never been so scared in his life but when he reached where her, he found her laughing and only she came out with a scratch on her leg. He had begged her to never do anything like that again. Yes life with one Elizabeth Webber now Morgan was always an adventure.

Before he knew it, it was after 5 and Jason was preparing to go home. He couldn’t remember who was suppose to pick up Jacob from school today so he called Elizabeth to make sure it wasn’t him or else he was late. When she answered he could hear smoke detectors going off in the background and what seemed like fire engine sirens but wasn’t sure if it was live or she was watching TV.
“Hey honey, I was just wondering if you left work yet?”

“Uh no, but don’t worry about the kids, Grams wanted to spend time with them.” She said trying to stop a coughing fit.
“I don’t have to go pick them up do I?” Jason asked dreading seeing the woman who caught him naked in her house.
“No. They are spending the night.”
“Elizabeth are you alright, why do I hear sirens?”
“Jason I worked in a hospital. Sirens are an everyday thing here.”
“Alright, then I’m going to home to enjoy the peace and quiet.”
“No! Don’t come- go home yet. Um I would really like some ice cream, can you pick us up some.”
“Uh.. sure…Are you sure you’re alright?”
“Yes, gotta go. Bye!”
When she hung up Jason just shook his head. He knew she was up to something. “Oh please don’t tell me she’s planning another surprise birthday party.” He said out loud.
“Spinelli!” He shouted to the young man he hired on as his apprentice.
“Yes master.”
“What did I tell you about this master stuff? Nevermind. My wife didn’t happen to invite you to a surprise birthday party for me tonight did she?” Jason asked the young man knowing he could never lie to Jason. Not because he respected Jason that much but because he was just the worst liar.
“No mast- I mean no Jason. I most certainly was not invited to a party to celebrate the day you arrived on earth.” Spinelli told him.
“Hmmm she’s up to something I just know it.” Jason told him.
“Most certainly the Fair Elizabeth learned her lesson after last year’s disaster of a party.”


Last year Elizabeth planned a surprise party for Jason and had invited all their friends and family to the party. They all hid in various locations around the living room waiting to surprise him as he walked through the door. But the surprise was on them when Jason pulled out his gun as he entered the dark house and saw a figure move in the dark. Since Elizabeth told him she was working late and the kids would be at the Quartermaine house, he was not expecting anyone to be in the house. He fired off a round above the figure, he didn’t want to kill the bastard just yet. After the bullet hit the far wall of the room, he heard people scream, children cry and saw adults hitting the floor when he hit the light switch. He never felt so bad in his life. He could have killed someone. He couldn’t help it if training from his old life just took over in certain situations. Elizabeth had promised him that she would never surprise him like that ever again. So he was hoping that a party wasn’t waiting for him when he got home.

But what was waiting for him when he pulled up their street stopped his heart. He found his house surrounded by fire trucks, policemen and an ambulance. He jumped out of the car without even turning it off and ran up to his house when he was stopped by a couple firefighters.
“That’s my house!” he shouted pulling the men off him.
“Sir you have to stay back. It’s not stable.”
“I don’t care you are letting me in there. My family could be in there.” He shouted back. He decked the firefighter and ran up to the porch and through the door. He heard the fire alarm going off, the place was filled with smoke and there was a hose in the kitchen splashing water all over the walls.
“Jason” He heard a small voice say behind him. He turned around to see a tear-stained face Elizabeth. She was holding an oxygen mask over her face and had a blanket thrown on her back.
“Oh my God” he said enveloping her in his arms. “Where are the kids?”
“They are fine. Thank God they weren’t here. They are at your parents.”
“What happened?” He asked setting her back down on the ground.
“I was trying to cook you a special birthday dinner and I ruined it.” She said breaking into tears.
He hugged her again, thanking God that she was alright and that the children were not home.
“Honey, you know you didn’t have to do that.” He told her still holding her close; the thought of something happening to her or the kids making his heart beat fast.
“I know but I wanted too. It was going to be fabulous Jason. I had cooked foods for all the places we went to in Europe when he left Port Charles. I had made sausage and sauerkraut for the time we spent in Germany, then for Italy I wanted to make Cornish Game hens. Then for dessert I wanted to make crepes but got distracted and let the oil get too hot and it caught on fire and I panicked when I saw the flames shooting up into the air and through water on it.”
Jason cringed when she said that.
“That made things worse and I ran to get the fire extinguisher but couldn’t get it to work so I ran to the neighbor’s house and had them call 911. I can’t do anything right.” She said crying again.
He picked her up and carried her back to the paramedics. “Is she alright? Or does she need to be check out for smoke inhalation. “ He asked the paramedic.
“No we checked her lungs they were fine, she wasn’t coughing when we got here. But if you want to take her in we can.”
Elizabeth told them she felt fine. She was out of the house before the smoke got too bad. She just wanted to go see her kids. So she and Jason took some clothes from the house and packed some extra for the kids since it would be a little while for the damage to be fixed. He would have to send someone to check it out tomorrow to see how bad the actual damage was and start working on the repairs.
In the meantime the Quartermaines said that they could all stay with them.

They headed over to the Quartermaines where Elizabeth cried all over again when the children ran to her and asked her how was Smokey the Bear practice was.
Elizabeth looked at them with confusion until Emily told them that Aunt Tracey had told them that Elizabeth was auditioning to be their next spokesperson. Jason stifled a laugh but Elizabeth heard him and gave him a smack on the arm. They didn’t want to tell the kids that their house had caught on fire so they told them that they were on vacation at the Quartermaines but they still had to go to school. They didn’t question it and just went back to playing. After dinner they got the kids settled into their rooms and finally crashed in one of the guest rooms. Elizabeth took a long hot shower and came out and found Jason lying on the bed. She walked over to him and lay next to him.
“I’m sorry I ruined your birthday.” She told him, tears welling up in her eyes again.
“Elizabeth baby I don’t care about that. I just don’t understand why you felt you had to do all of that” He asked the question that had been running through his mind all evening.
“We had so much fun when we left Port Charles. We went from one adventure to another. It was the best time of our lives. And since we’ve had the kids other than our annual family vacation we don’t go anywhere. I just thought maybe I could recreate some of that magic for you. But all I managed to do was make us homeless.”

“Elizabeth.” He said pulling her closer to him and running his hands through her wet hair. He kissed her forehead then he lips.
“First you didn’t make us homeless. The damaged was regulated to the kitchen, so we probably can move back in as soon as the smoke clears. You just won’t be able to cook. Which I know should make you happy.” He said with a chuckle. “Second, honey I loved our time traveling but you know what I love more?” He asked placing a hand under her chin forcing her to look up at him.
“No what?” She whispered.
“I love you, Jacob and Alison. I love my job and the shop. And I even have come to love the Quartermaines and your Grandmother when she isn’t checking out my package.”
“Jason!”
“What? You know she does Elizabeth.”
“You’re right. I’ve caught her a couple times.” She said giggling.
“So you see although traveling all over Europe was fun and adventurous, this right here is all I need. Elizabeth there is no other adventure quite fulfilling as loving you.” He said kissing her.
“I love you too Jason.” She said as he rolled on top of her. He began to kiss her and pull the robe she was wearing off her shoulders.
“Jason what are you doing?” She asked him as he kissed her neck.
“I’m going to make love to my wife.”
“In your parents house? Haven’t you learned your lesson after what happened with Grams?”
“Come on Elizabeth” he said opening the robe to reveal her naked body underneath. “Where’s your sense of adventure?”
