One-shot - CONFRONTATION
Author's Note: This is a one-shot possibly when Sam showed Jason where she was going to seduce Lucky and my take on what should have happened.
Sam stood on her patio staring at Jason waiting for some sort of reaction, anything that would give her some bit of vengeance. She had lured him there to her apartment to strike a hopefully lethal blow to his ego and sever the last ties that remained of their relationship. As she leaned against the hot tub she tried to calm her breathing she didn't want to show an ounce of fear or sadness to the man she once gave her whole heart to.
Jason was his typical silent and stoic self, but there was something about him in that moment that felt dark and unfeeling. Sam told him this is where she planned on seducing Lucky and wanted to show it to him and Jason had to steady himself not to act on his visceral reaction. He knew she was trying to hurt him, but sadly when you are empty there is nothing to take away. His eyes fixed on hers and he slowly made his way to her watching her breathing start to accelerate the closer he came to her. Never breaking his gaze, he stood close enough to feel her practically panting "Samantha your choices will hurt you and only you because you mean NOTHING to me! Let me remind you if you do anything to hurt Elizabeth and her boys I will kill you." He sneered at her and spun on his foot and started towards the door squeezing his eyes away from her hoping this would jar her out of this self-destructive path.
Sam's breath hitched when she heard the words caught in a daze because she had not imagined that Jason would tell her again that she meant nothing to him and would so easily dispose of her if she hurt his precious Elizabeth. Her emotions raged and she grabbed a glass sitting on the edge of the hot tub and hurled it at wall next to where Jason was exiting. "So I guess when you told me I wasn't trash you were lying just like you lied about your son. Oh, how the almighty Jason Morgan has fallen from his affinity of truth. Your word was the one thing that never faltered and here you stand telling me that all of the promises of love and a future were lies. I should have known that it was too good to be true I want to thank you Jason for reminding me that the only person I can depend on in this world is myself. I just wonder if you can so easily cast me aside why did you beg me to live? You could have saved us both time and a whole bunch of heartache well me anyways if I had died with my daughter at least then I wouldn't be alone." A tear cascaded down her cheek remembering the precious life that had brought them together and how the lie of his son tore them apart.
In that moment Jason knew the gravity of his words and actions and how deeply he had hurt Sam there was no going back and no going forward he felt stuck. Watching the single tear stream down her face and seeing the pain in her eyes was like a knife to his heart, but he knew something had shaken her from the darkness and he prayed should could see the light. Jason's eyes welled at the thought of a life without Sam and realized that she was crying out for help and support, but that was not his place anymore. All he could do at this point is watch from a distance and pray that she could summon the strength he had seen so many times to get through this abyss that was trying to consume her. He opened his mouth to speak and before he could utter a word she beat him to it.
"Just leave Jason, it's what you're good at you've made it abundantly clear I'm irrelevant to you." Jason tried to say something and she screamed "Get out!"
Jason turned away from her closing his eyes knowing that he had broken any and all trust they ever shared he fought the urge to take her in his arms and try to comfort her. Sam trialed behind him as he made his way to the door and as he grabbed the doorknob she unleashed one final dagger "Oh and tell Elizabeth that she will have to survive the night with one less protector because Lucky and I have plans and he will be occupied all night long."
Sam explored the depths of his eyes searching for some sort of indication of what he was thinking and all she could see was a blank stare. Jason silently growled to himself imagining the detective being seduced by Sam. He looked one last time into her eyes and quickly opened the door and slammed it behind him. Once he was outside her door he could breathe again, but a part of him ached for her.
Jason sped off on his motorcycle trying to give as much distance as possible from Sam and any feelings that he still had for her. He found himself back at the Penthouse and he couldn't stand the emptiness in the room or the lingering memories that he felt for her in their home. He grabbed a beer from the fridge and headed to the roof where he could let the cold night air numb his skin and the alcohol numb the rest. He rested his arms on the ledge looking out to the night sky and the city wondering what she was doing or more accurately what she was doing with Lucky. He replayed their conversation over and over in his head thinking of all the scenarios and the one that he was stuck on in this moment was intoxicating and mesmerizing.
Jason looked out over the horizon and was lost in his imagination.
Sam was leaning on the hot tub and he was coming close to her again and instead of threatening her he would tell her the truth and how he felt about her and what he truly wanted to do in that moment. Her hair was pulled up and yet a single strand of hair seemed to always fall into her face he leaned forward sweeping it behind her ear as he had always done, that was the first intimate thing they shared and he would always cling to it. Sam jerked back seething as she stoned a glare on him and he saw her arm ready to raise. He caught her wrist before impact and pulled her to him. He leaned into her neck whispering "Your body might be with him, but you will be imagining me and I know that he can't possibly please you the way I can. I wonder Sam will he find that tender spot at the nape of your neck or my other favorite on the inside of your right thing just above your knee? Will he appreciate you digging your claws into his back by tugging on your hair and teething your nipples? He will never know your body like I do or be able to bring you to absolute nirvana. Jason pulled back slowly from her wanting to torment and tease her, but in truth he was extremely turned on right now.
Sam slowly licked her lips and he watched her as though in a trance and she finally caught her breathe "Jas..Jason stop torturing me you've moved on, why can't I? Why are you trying to remind me of US? You made it abundantly clear where I stood in your life and how you felt so why are you throwing our past in my face? Is this your way of twisting the knife, well it's too late I'm already numb?"
Jason stroked her along her temple down her jawline and tucked another strand of hair behind her ear and then took his thumb and slowly stroked her lips. Jason wanted to claim her and never let her go. "Sam, I said those things to remind the both of us how amazing we are together and I know that I hurt you deeply and if I could take it back I would. I was the one person you could always count on and trust and I broke that, not you me I did that to us and I don't know if you can ever forgive me for that. I should have fought for us and never listened to your mother and I let Elizabeth get in between us. I'm so sorry Sam."
"Sorry, you're sorry Jason? You threatened to kill me in my own apartment if I harmed a hair on your precious Elizabeth and her boys, kill me Jason as though you had zero remorse from it. I don't know how to let that go." Sam walked around him towards the small table to take a drink.
Jason turned to face her and took a few steps because he was determined to not let her walk away again or lose her he would fight and if he had to fight dirty he would and Lucky wouldn't stand a chance. "Sam, words cannot do justice to the kind of apology I owe you for that, but if there is one thing I've learned about you is that actions speak louder. Samantha McCall, you need to prepare yourself because I'm not going anywhere and you might want to call Lucky and tell him your plans have changed because tonight you are MINE and if I have my way it will remain that way." Jason wrapped his arms around her waist pulling her to face him and with their eyes blazing he crashed down on her mouth with his lips.
The feeling of euphoria rushed over him when he felt her lips again and her body pressed against his he was awestruck. Jason traced her lips with the tip of his tongue praying she would let this continue and when her lips parted slightly he entered her mouth and they moaned in unison. Sam gave into the heat between them she could deal with her depth of feelings later right now she wanted to be with him in every way.
Jason thought of something she always wanted and he never gave it to her and knew how much it would mean to her. "Sam do you have a bathtub?"
Sam tilted her head and said "Yeah, why do you ask? What's with your sudden interest in bathtubs and why are we talking about this now?"
"Wait here I have an idea and second question are you hungry?" Jason hoped that she was hungry because he was starving.
"Yes actually now that you mention it I'm actually starving." Jason cheered secretly and ran inside her apartment to fish his phone out of his jacket. He dialed the number he had finally decided to store the number in his phone. He asked for their usual Chinese food order and proceeded to find the illusive bathtub. Once he found the bathtub he was searching for bubble bath and that's when he discovered it sitting on top of a pregnancy box a white and pink stick. He looked around in the bathroom wondering what he should do she had not invited him into that information, but he also realized it could impact him. Jason reached for the stick and brought it to his face and he gasped for air as clear as day – Positive . Jason couldn't believe it Sam was pregnant and more than likely with his baby.
TO BE CONTINUED? You tell me.
