"Make yourself comfortable, Dr. Drake," Emily encouraged, heading into the kitchen to check on dinner, "I'm just going to set the table." |

"Emily, why did you help Patrick find Zack?" Noah asked curiously. "I mean, what made you decide to do it?" "It's good that you and Micheal are getting along," Patrick told Jason. "How did Sonny take the news of Micheal being your son?" |

"Honestly, he's relieved it's not AJ," Jason told him, "I mean, Michael still looks to Sonny as his father, and I never want that to change. But Sonny and I are like brothers, so there's a trust there already. It's why he's so comfortable with me looking after Kristina." Emily exhaled slowly. She knew that this was going to come up eventually, she just didn't expect it to come so soon in the day. "I felt like it was the right thing to do. I was adopted by Alan and Monica, and I thank God for that every day. But I know what it's like to wonder about family. And your son, he was so upset about not knowing where his child was. I just wanted to help him." |

"Well, for what it's worth, you seem like you are a good father," Patrick told him as Lucas crawled over to Jason and tugged at his pant leg. "Zack's not Patrick's son," Noah said as he stared down at the table. "He was just- some random child I found at the orphanage, Emily. Patrick's biological son really was aborted." |

Jason was a little uncomfortable, but he leaned down and picked Lucas up into his arms. He smiled at the baby, "You have your mom's eyes, do you know that? I would recognize those baby blues anywhere." Emily dropped the plates she had in hand in shock, causing them to shatter on the floor. "What?" she questioned quickly, "But there was paperwork... hospital records.. how? Why would you do that? You didn't even want Patrick to be a father... why are you telling me this?" |

"Because you deserve to know the truth," Noah told her. "I know we never got along, but you're good for Patrick. I faked all the records and certificates. I thought just knowing his son was alive would be enough for Patrick. I never imagined you'd get involved and try to find Zack, so rather than have you find out the baby was dead, I did everything in my power to find another child. I couldn't destroy Patrick's life by having him discover his child was really dead." |

Emily took a seat, feeling like she'd pass out at any moment. "Oh, but it won't destroy him to find out now? He has lost so much, between his mother and our baby, and now this? Oh my God... we don't even have Zack in our home legally. He could get taken away from us!" |

"It's not going to destroy him because neither him or Patrick can ever find out," Noah told her. "As far as the rest of the world is concerned, Patrick is Zack's biological father. I never imagined Patrick would actually take on the responsibility of a child, Emily. That's why I chose a paralyzed child. You know what Patrick was like a year ago, I never thought he'd actually try to take the boy home." "You're pretty good with him," Patrick told him. "I guess you don't remember it, but taking care of Micheal when he was that young must be coming through somehow." |

"No, no way," Emily started, shaking her head at what he was insinuating, "I'm not keeping this from Patrick. We're getting married in a month and a half... we don't keep secrets from one another." "I guess," Jason told him, letting Lucas back to play with his brother and Kristina when he started squirming around, "I just wish I could remember it. Michael deserves a parent who can remember him." |

"Emily, what's going to happen when Patrick finds out he's lost both of his children?" Noah asked her. "He was devastated when you miscarried. If he finds out the baby he thought was Zack died, too... I won't let him end up like me." "Maybe you and Micheal can go on a fishing trip with me and Zack sometime," Patrick suggested. "Make a father and son weekend out of it." |

Emily closed her eyes and considered what he was saying. Patrick did love Zack, and they both agreed that biology didn't matter. Your children were your children no matter what. "But what if he finds out that I've been lying to him? It'll destroy him even more, and I'll lose him forever." "That sounds almost... normal," Jason smiled, taking another swig of his beer. "I'll talk to Michael about it." |

"He won't," Noah assured her. "I made sure that there's nothing that traces Zack to his biological parents. As far as the rest of the world's concerned, he is Patrick Drake's son." |

"So you, me, and Zack's birth mother are the only ones who know," Emily whispered, dropping to the floor to start to clean up the broken glass. "How do I keep something this huge from the man I love? We're going to take vows... I don't know how to do this." |

"I don't know, but it'll hurt him a lot more if he finds out that Zack's not the boy he thinks he is," Noah told her. "And just think of what that will do to Zack." |

Emily sighed. He was right. "Okay... you're right. I hate it, but you're right. Why don't you go get everybody in here for dinner? It's going to get cold." |

Noah went to get everyone in for dinner. "Going to be going out for basksetball after vacation," Zack told Kristina. "Luke and Matt think I've really got a chance of making the team." |

"A freshman on the varsity team? I'd be impressed," Kristina smiled, petting the puppy. |

Zack blushed. The truth was he mainly going out to impress her. "So, did you ever think about you know, cheerleading or something?" Zack asked. |

"Cheerleading?" Kristina asked, "I don't know. I never thought that fit in with the whole mobster's daughter thing. My mother would probably kill me. Future lawyers do not degrate themselves as cheerleaders." |

"Then will I at least see you at my games, cheering me on?" Zack hopefully asked as he played with the puppy. |

"I'm sure he'd be okay with you going to a sporting event," Zack said as he smiled at her. "Time for dinner," Noah said as he walked into the room. Patrick took Lucas and carried him into the dining room, putting him in his high chair. Luke took a seat next to Matt, and Zack sat with Kristina. |

Emily had cleaned up the glass from the plates she broke. She was just putting the replacements on the table when everybody came in. "Well, I'll just go get the food and we can start." "Let me help," Jason offered, following her into the kitchen. He took the turkey and she brought the trimmings into the dining room. They both put them on the table and took seats. Jason sat on the other side of Kristina and Emily took a seat next to Lucas' high chair. "So... I guess we can eat now," she muttered, not in the mood at all for a big family dinner. |

"It's good to have all you here," Patrick said as he looked around. "This is the first family Christmas that a lot of us here have had, and I'm thankful we can share it together." Luke held Matt's hand under the table and gently squeezed it. Lucas was playing with his bottle, laughing and giggling. |

As they all started eating, Emily looked at Zack. For some reason, everything about him that she thought reminded her of Patrick was gone now. She had to remember that it didn't matter. Lucas called Patrick 'Daddy', and that was what was important. "This is great, Em. Or should I say Luke," Matt joked. "What?" she asked, waking up from her daydream, "Oh, yeah, right, Luke did do everything. I wasn't lying though... I just didn't want to make a bad impression." |
