Ari, Sammy and I got out of the cab at my dad's house.

"You were staying here?" Sammy asked and I nodded.

"When everyone thought I died, they got rid of my place." I said and he nodded.

"And you didn't kill Kelsie?" Sammy asked and I huffed a laugh.

"No...we talked." I said as we got our luggage from the trunk of the cab.

"Anything I should know about your dad?" Ari asked as we walked to the door. I looked at Ari and just smiled.

"He knows I love so he will love you." I said and Ari smiled. He kissed my cheek as I unlocked the door and we walked into the house. I kept it quiet that Sammy was home so he could surprise Kelsie. I walked in and saw dad sitting on the couch reading. He looked and went to say something, but I shushed him.

"Where's Kelsie?" I whispered.

"Kitchen." He said pointing. Sammy set his bag down and walked into the kitchen. The next thing we all heard was a scream and a big crash.

"SAMMY!" Kelsie screamed and I smiled. I took Ari's hand as my dad stood up and we walked up to him.

"Dad, this is Ari Levinson. Ari, this is my dad Ike Scofield." I said and they shook hands.

"Nice to meet you sir." Ari said.

"Please call me Ike."

"So, this is the guy?" Ike asked me. I smiled and looked up at Ari.

"It is." I said.

"Well, it's nit to meet the guy who won my daughters heart in the midst of everything you both were doing. Also thank you for getting her back to me this time." Ike said and Ari smiled.

"I didn't want to let her go but I had to get her home and to safety." Ari said and I sighed.

"Yeah, well now we are all home." I said and Ike nodded. Kelsie and Sammy came walking in from the kitchen holding hands and it was the first time I really saw them together. I sighed with a smile.

"Wow..." I said not realizing said anything out loud.

"What?" Kelsie asked sensing the worst.

"Nothing...sorry...just you two do look good together." I said and Kelsie smiled and then looked at me and Ari.

"Well look at you with your man, I mean god model couple." Kelsie said and we both laughed.

"Ari, this is my sister Kelsie, Kelsie this is Ari Levinson." I said and he shook her hand.

"Thank you for bringing Sammy back in one piece." Kelsie said and Ari shook his head.

"I just got him on the plane. Your sister was the one behind all of it. She demanded the plane." Ari said and I shook my head.

"I didn't demand the plane I just voiced my opinion on how to get you all out. Once Walton left the office, I had no clue what was going to happen." I said and Ari sighed but kissed the side of my head.

"You got us home, that's all that matters." He said and everyone nodded.

We all decided to sit and talk for a while and then I finally looked at everyone.

"Okay so we should probably figure out living arrangements, right? I mean not all 5 of us can stay here." I said and everyone seemed to agree.

"Well, I have an apartment. It was paid up for until I was gone. I mean we could go there if you want." Ari said and I nodded.

"Yeah, that could work." I said.

"Before I left, I leased out my place. Maybe I could stay here." Sammy said and Ike nodded.

"Well, we should get to your place and get you all settle in, right?" I asked and Ari nodded.

"You want to pack up a few things to bring?" Ari asked and I nodded.

"I'll be back in a few minutes." I said and headed upstairs to my room.

***IKE POV***

"Kelsie, why don't you go help your sister for a minute?" I said and Kelsie knew I needed her out of the room.

Kelsie headed up the stairs and I sighed looking at the two men sitting in front of me.

"Ike...?" Sammy asked.

"Sammy, you have been around my family long enough to know I don't skip around major topics I want to discuss." I said and Sammy nodded. I then turned my attention to Ari.

"You and Jordan pretended to be married while on this mission, correct?"

"Yes sir." Ari answered.

"So, you and my daughter essential got close which I'm grateful for knowing she was finally happy and moved on. I just need to know, what are your plans now that you are both home, stateside and living the normal life?" I asked and Ari sighed but gave a smirk.

"Well in all honesty I want to actually date Jordan and be with her but I do fully intend on asking her to marry me sooner rather than later. I love your daughter." Ari explained. This made my heart happy. I then turned to look at Sammy.

"You Kelsie, you obviously need to talk right?" I asked and Sammy sighed but hung his head.

"Yeah, we do. Somethings were put in perspective for me while on this mission and it needs to be talked about." Sammy said. I noticed her exchanged a looked with Ari.

"Did something happen between you two involving Jordan?" I asked and they sighed.

"Somethings were brought out when we were in jail, but they have been worked out and worked through. I still feel like Kelsie should be told." Sammy said and I nodded.

"The one thing I have only ever wanted for my girls has been happiness and to find someone they can love, will love them and give them the life they deserve. As long as both of you can give my girls that happiness, I just want you both to know you have my permission to marry them." I explained and both men smiled. I heard the girls coming down the stairs and I smiled seeing them talking and laughing about something. Jordan and Sammy were home, Jordan and Ari were back together, Sammy and Kelsie would be fine once they talked, and everyone was getting along. Everything was right in the world again.
