So I know I should be writing chapters for my other stories at the moment but I couldn't sleep and when I can't sleep I write. So here is a short little one-shot for your enjoyment.
Takes place in present time. Sam moved in with Jason at the Penthouse, just as Maxie's apartment is being fumigated and moves in as well for a short while. How will Jason, Sam, Spinelli and Maxie all deal with one another living under one roof?
Fours a Crowd
"Are you sure you don't mind me moving in?" asked Sam towards Jason as they stepped off the elevator.
"Why would I mind?" asked Jason, playfully down at her, arching an eyebrow.
"I don't know," mumbled Sam with a shrug. "I don't want to intrude," she trailed off, biting down on her lower lip and looking up at Jason with concerned eyes. They had only been back together for almost a year now and she didn't know if moving in was too much of a stretch.
"You could never intrude," he whispered as he leaned down and captured her lips with his. He had wanted Sam to move in a long time ago but she had refused, saying she didn't want to rush into anything. But since her lease was up on her apartment, she had hinted at how difficult it is at finding at good cheap apartment in Port Charles and how much easier it would be if she just moved in with him. He had agreed. Plus she was always spending her days here anyways it seemed, even when Jason wasn't there. It just seemed like the next logical step.
"Well if you put it like that," whispered Sam, pulling away breathless from him. Jason leaned his forehead against hers, looking deep into her eyes for a moment. She smiled up at him, before placing a hand on his chest; she knew what he was thinking. "There's plenty of time for that later," she stated noting the look on his face. "Let's just get through the door first, shall we?"
Jason sighed at this, before kissing Sam sweetly on the lips and moving towards the penthouse. In his hands he carried two of Sam's suitcases and a duffle bag, which contained all of her clothes. The rest of her personal belongs were either being put in to storage or being delivered later on.
Pulling her copy of the key out from her purse, Sam opened the door, holding it open for Jason as he carried her things inside. Placing the suitcases and duffle bag on the floor by the bottom of the stairs, Jason reached out and grabbed Sam by the hand as she closed the front door, pulling her towards him. She couldn't help but laugh as Jason lowered her hand and cupped her face, pulling her into a kiss once again. The kiss deepened as they began to make their way to the couch, falling on top of one another. Jason's body towered over hers as his hand slide down her front, while his other still continued to cup the side of Sam's face.
Just then the door open, making both of Sam and Jason pull away quickly from one another and sit up.
"Thank you Spinelli!" chimed Maxie with a smile at Spinelli as he held open the door for her. Stepping over the threshold, her eyes fell onto the couple on the couch. "Where you guys just getting the nasty on?" asked the blonde fashionista looking from Sam's dishevelled hair to Jason's cold stone face. It didn't take a genius to put two and two together.
Sam's cheeks flushed pink at this, "No," she murmured towards the young girl as she tried to flatten her hair out.
Maxie just rolled her eyes at her friend, not understanding why she was always deigning having sex with Jason. This was not the first time that she had broken them up from a heavy make-out session. Crossing her arms over her small chest, she turned her attention towards Spinelli, "Be careful with those Spinelli!" she cried as he carried in a number of her Louis Vuitton suitcases into the apartment.
"Yes Maximista," replied Spinelli, looking up at his beloved as he placed the two hat boxes that he had been carrying down gently on the floor along with a large carrier bag.
A confused look came across Jason's as he watched Spinelli bring in the rest of Maxie's luggage from the hallway. "What's the hell is all this?" asked Jason, starring coldly from Spinelli to Maxie and back.
"Well Stone Cold, this would be Faire Maximista's precious belongings," answered Spinelli to the mob enforcer as he placed the last of the suit cases down and closed the front door.
"Belongings?" Jason's eyebrows fussed together at this, as he rose to his feet.
"Yes, Stone Cold," replied Spinelli a little taken back by Jason's confusion. "Did you except Maximista to live here without bringing her things as well?"
"Live here?" asked Jason, his blue eyes piercing into Spinelli.
Spinelli stared down at this feet at this, "Did the Jackal forget to mention that his beloved would be moving in with him to his pink dwellings, while her and the Blonde One's place is being fumigated?" asked Spinelli slowly, shoving his hands into the front pockets of his jeans.
"No you didn't," snarled Jason.
"Well that is just plan rude, Jason!" snapped Maxie taking a step towards the mob enforcer. Jason's blue eyes looked over at her. "Stop making Spinelli feel bad. I know you don't like me and hate the idea of me moving in but don't take it out on Spinelli!" she then walked over towards where Spinelli stood and place an arm around his shoulder.
Jason was taken back a little by this, glancing over his shoulder he looked down at Sam who was still seated on the couch. "Don't look at me," she whispered to him, she had no idea what was going on.
Sighing at this, Jason turned his attention back on Spinelli and Maxie, "I'm sorry for the confusion," he spoke in his monotone voice. "But you will have to leave Maxie!"
"Excuse me!" cried Maxie, raising a single eyebrow at Jason. Was he serious?
"There is no room for you here. Sam is already moving in and there is no way in hell I will have four people living here," stated Jason. "You will have to find another place to live."
"Oh my god! Your living here now!" cried Maxie rushing away from Spinelli and over to Sam, ignoring Jason's orders. "This is so cool! We are going to be roommates!" Maxie taking the seat beside Sam on the couch, she threw her arms around Sam's neck, pulling her into a hug.
Sam couldn't help but laugh at this as she hugged her young friend back, however her laughter faded when she looked up and met Jason's eye. She wasn't helping matters. Pulling away from the hug, Sam looked down at her friend. "Maxie, Jason likes his private..."began Sam but was cut off.
"Don't Sam!" cut in Maxie, shaking her perfect blonde bob from side to side. "I'm staying and that's final! Right Spinelli?" she stood up and looked across the room at her boyfriend. "Come on, Tell Jason that I'm moving in and that's final!"
Spinelli looked very uneasy at Maxie for a second before nodding his head slightly in response. Nervously he looked up at Jason's stone cold face, closing his eyes, he took a deep breath. He could do this, he could stand up to his mentor and dear friend and telling him that Maxie was moving in, if he liked it or not. Jason had not discussed Sam moving in with really, he had just mentioned it to him that she would be. Of course, Spinelli had been over the moon to here that his two dear friends were taking their relationship to the next level and his partner in crime would be once again be his roommate.
"Go on Spinelli, tell him!" encouraged Maxie.
"Yeah you can do it!" chimed in Sam from her seat on the couch. Jason looked over his shoulder at her, giving her a puzzled look. She just grinned back at him.
"Right Maximista," mumbled Spinelli opening his eyes and slowly looking up at Jason, who stared darkly back at him. Spinelli swallowed nervously before opening his mouth, which all the sudden had become dry. "Stone Cold," began the Jackal.
"Spinelli," replied Jason back, his blue eyes twinkling with amusement a bit, watching as Spinelli tried to get his bearings.
"The Jackal will like to inform Stone Cold that his beloved, the lovely Maximista will indeed be moving in to the penthouse for a short time period, while her current dwelling is being fumigated," stated Spinelli. A sign of relief escaped from his lips and a smile appeared on his face. He was proud of himself for standing up to Stone Cold like that.
Jason continued to stare at Spinelli for a second before opening his mouth to rebut him but before he could, Maxie rushed over to Spinelli and threw her arms around his neck. "Oh Spinelli I'm so proud of you!" she squealed as she kissed him passionately on the lips.
Looking disgusted at this, Jason turned away and looked at Sam. She just shrugged her shoulders at him, trying hard not to laugh at the situation.
"It was nothing, Maximista, I'm in your knight in shiny armour," replied Spinelli, blushing at the sudden attention. It was then that Maxie kissed him on the lips again before instructing him to bring up her luggage to his pink room.
"Come on Spinelli!" cried Maxie from the top of the stairs, in her hands she had her purse and one of the small carriers.
"Yes coming," replied Spinelli back as he attempted to pick up the rest of the luggage in his arms. "Goodbye fellow roommates," he spoke towards Jason and Sam before slowly making the trip up the stairs.
Once the couple was upstairs, Jason turned around and looked at Sam. "There is no way she is staying here," he spoke in a matter of fact tone. He could not possible stand to live in the same house with Maxie Jones.
"Oh she is not going to be here that long," replied Sam, rolling her eyes at Jason's dramatics. "Two weeks top!"
Jason just mumbled something in reply that Sam did not quit hear but ignored it anyways as she stood up and wrapped her arms around his waist, rubbing her cheek against his chest. "I'm glad to be back!" she spoke softly looking up at him and meeting his eye.
Jason couldn't help but smile at this. "I'm glad you are back too!" The couple then shared a long and deep kiss.
"This is nice," commented Sam.
"What is?" asked Jason staring down at her. They were cuddled up on the couch together. Jason's arm was wrapped around Sam's shoulder and in his other free hand was a nice cold beer.
"Just sitting here with you, drinking beers," she replied lifting her head off of where it lay on his chest and smiled up at him.
"It is," he agreed in a deep whisper. His blue eyes darkened as he inched his face close to hers, crashing his mouth against hers.
Just then a loud crashing noise could be heard from up above, followed by a fit of giggles.
"You got to be kidding me," groaned Jason breaking away from the kiss and looking towards the stairs. "Not again..." This was one of the reasons he had not wanted Maxie to move in. When she and Spinelli were together, they were just so loud.
Sam knew immediately what Jason was referring too as she thought back to last summer, before her and Jason had gotten back together; The night of Karaoke. She remembered how loud they could be together and couldn't help but laugh a little.
"What? You think this is funny?" asked Jason annoyed as another loud crashing noise could be heard from upstairs. Usually when he knew that Maxie would be spending the night, Jason would either make sure that he was at Sam's or somewhere far away from the Penthouse.
"It's a little," admitted Sam was a small smile.
Jason just shook his head at her before turning his attention back up stairs. He then suddenly rose to his feet.
"Hey, hey where are you going mister?" asked Sam reaching out and grabbing him by the wrist, stopping him in his tracks.
"I'm going to go tell them to keep it down," stated Jason, his blue eyes looking down at Sam.
"You can't do that Jason!" cried Sam, looking at him like he had gone crazy. "You can't just walk in on them and..." her voice trailed off for a second, before smiling. "Just take a seat." She then pulled hard on Jason's arm, making him seat down again.
"I wasn't going to walk in on them, I was going to simply knock on the door and tell them to keep it down," Jason spoke softly, his blue eyes staring down at Sam's face. An idea then flashed in his mind.
"Why don't we go for a ride on the bike?" he spoke his voice dropping into a deep seductive whispered, his blue eyes once again darkened.
"Oh..." whispered Sam, her face brightening, "I like that idea." Her hands cradled the side of Jason's face and she pulled him into a long kiss. Jason pulled Sam on top of him as the kiss deepened. It was then to be broken apart by a loud cracking sound. The two of them broke apart and listened for the noise again. They figured it was just Maxie and Spinelli again but however it wasn't it.
"Was that thunder?" asked Sam a puzzled look on her face as she sat up and listened again for the loud thundering noise. Just then the sound of the skies opening and rain pouring down could be heard from the open patio door.
"Looks like we are going to have to think of something else to do," Sam looked over at Jason. "Got any suggestions?" she asked rising an eyebrow at Jason. Usually if they could not go for a bike ride, they would have headed over to her apartment but since Sam no longer had it, they were stuck here.
Jason then all the sudden grabbed Sam by the hand and rose to his feet, pulling Sam along with him. They were going to have a bubble bath, something that Jason rarely ever did. However, he knew that Sam would love it.
Giggle escaped from Sam's lips as Jason trailed hot kisses down the side of her neck. The light touch of his lips tickled against her skin. "Jason, stop that!" she cried as he nibbled on her collarbone, sending her into a fit of giggles. She wasn't usually this ticklish but tonight however she was.
They were seated in the large Jacuzzi bathtub that had just been installed within the master bathroom. Jason had his arms firmly wrapped around Sam, who had her back pressed up against his chest, seated in between his legs. She kicked her legs, underneath the water, making some splash over the edge and onto the tile floor as she squirmed; trying to get away from Jason, who was running his hand softly up the side of her ribcage, tickling her even harder than before.
"Stop IT!" she laughed, twisting her body around so that she was facing him in the hot water. "You think its funny do ya," she asked as her hand reached out and wrapped around his wrists, pinning them over his head. Jason looked at Sam innocently, trying to stop the corners of his lips from turning up into a smile. Sam, who was now straddled on top of Jason, held his gaze, smiling down at him. Her hands still holding onto his wrists.
"Pick on someone your own size," she whispered in a sedative voice as she inched her face closer and closer to his.
Jason raised an eyebrow at this before he felt the soft touch of Sam's lips on his mouth.
"SAM, JASON YOU BETTER NOW BE IN THERE!" cried Maxie from on the other side of the bathroom door. "BECAUSE I REALLY NEED TO USE THE BATHROOM...LIKE NOW!" The penthouse only contained the one large master bathroom, which was attached to the master bedroom and also the hallway.
Jason let out a frustrated sigh at hearing Maxie's cries from the hallway. Looking up at Sam, she pecked him quickly on the lips before sliding off of his lap and dropping his wrists into the water. There was nothing else they could do.
"SAM JASON!" cried Maxie again, knocking loudly on the door.
"Just a minute, Maxie," replied Sam as she looked towards the door as she climbed out of the Jacuzzi tub and reached out for the folded towel. As she wrapped the large towel around her body, she looked on at Jason, who had just pulled the plug out of the tube and was carefully stepping out as well. Giving him a small smile, Sam handed him a dry towel.
"Thanks," murmured Jason as he took the towel and wrapped it around his waist. Just as Sam took a step to open the door, he reached out and grabbed her hand. Turning around to face him, Sam looked up at him with confusion. Pulling her to close him, he bend his head and kissed her quickly but passionately on the lips, before letting her go.
Taken a little off guard by this, Sam gently touched her swollen lips as she turned slowly and opened the door to an impatient Maxie.
"Took you long enough!" she snapped at her friend, before she walked pasted her and into the room.
Sam rolled her eyes at Maxie, before reaching out and taking Jason's hand, pulling him out of the bathroom. It was going to be a long two weeks.
Okay so tell me what you think, I would love to hear from you guys. Thanks so much for reading and please review!
