Two booked flights (I think this one is legitimate)
Paid Fair #1
SEA->DFW->MIA May 1st
staying for a few days...
MIA->DFW May 4th

Paid Fair #2
DFW->JFK May 4th
JFK->DFW May 10th

Paid Fair #1 continuation
DFW->SEA May 10th (going back home on my original first flight fare)

When you select 'multiple cities' I can have two flight fares active right?

This is nesting. There is no problem doing this, and your flights are being taken in the proper sequence, as you point out.
