Here is the first chapter of my new story. I am working on the next chapter of "An Affair to Remember." It should be up soon. So tell me what you think of this chapter and if I should continue.

Prologue

Jason was walking up the street, on his way to meet her when he spotted her standing on the sidewalk looking as beautiful as ever. She had told him that they had to talk and that it was very important.

He walked across the street and called out her name causing her to turn her head and flash him a smile.

"Jason, I have the most wonderful news. You are going to love it." She wrapped her arms around his waist as he pulled her closer to him.

"Well what is this wonderful news?" She smiled up at him again and leaned to kiss him on the cheek before she started whispering in his ear.

"Well Mr. Morgan, we are…" She didn't get to finish what she was saying because her words were cut off by the sound of gunshots, and Jason pulling her to the ground. When the gunshots had stopped Courtney tried to push Jason off of her but he wouldn't move. It was when she had him off of her and on the ground that she noticed the blood on her shirt and the large stain seeping through Jason's shirt.

Chapter 1

"Damn it, Coleman, I quit. I am sick and tired of being bossed around by you. I am your employee not your slave," yelled a very angry Jason Morgan.

"You can't quit Morgan. I know you need this money for your apartment," said a very smug looking Coleman.

"I would rather be homeless than work for you another day," Jason yelled as he walked out the door and slammed it hard behind him.

Jason Morgan walked into his very small one bedroom apartment and groaned when he noticed the eviction notice sitting on the coffee table.

"I can't believe I quit my job. I was my only source of income and now I am going to be kicked out on the street, unless I can find and job," Jason said to himself as he sat down on the small couch and scrubbed a hand over his face. Jason knew he could ask his friend Sonny for the money, but he never asked anyone for help.

Jason Morgan had moved to Port Charles, New York five years ago. It was right after his mother had died. Jason and his mother had lived in California for his entire life. His father had left him and his mother when he was only five. His mother had worked two jobs just to pay for the bills, and when he was sixteen his mother had gotten sick. They found out that she was suffering from cancer. Jason had dropped out of school after she had been diagnosed, because she had to quit her job. The cancer had gotten worse when he was eighteen. They didn't have the money to afford the treatment she need. She lasted for five years when the cancer had taken her life.

After he moved to New York he had made quick friends with Sonny, and Sonny helped him find his first job. He had owed a lot to Sonny.

Jason walked to his small kitchen and fixed himself a sandwich. He then walked over and flopped down on the couch. He continued to eat until he decided that he was going to go to the club that Sonny worked at.

Jason walked passed the bulky guard that was watching the door, and gave him a small nod. Jason entered the club and immediately saw Sonny working at the bar. Today was definitely a slow day at the bar. Sonny saw him walk into the door and waved at him to come over to the bar.

"Scotch on the rocks, Sonny." Sonny immediately went and got his order.

"So why are you here so early?" Sonny asked.

"I quit my job."

"Why, you need that money so you can pay off your rent."

"I was tired of being treated like a slave. You know that I don't like being pushed around."

"What are you going to do?"

"I don't know. I guess I need to find a job and fast."

"Well I can probably put in a good work for you here."

"Sonny, no offense but I just quit a job like this."

"O.K. but don't come crying to me when you are thrown out of your apartment." Sonny said in a joking tone. He smiled when he saw Jason glare at him.

"Ha, Ha, Ha. Sonny that was very…" Jason voice was cut off when he saw a petite blond woman sit down directly in front of him.

"Excuse me." She said gently, catching both Sonny and Jason's attention. "Sorry to interrupt, but could I get an apple martini please." The woman asked with a kind smile on her face. Sonny left where he was standing, right in front of Jason to fix the woman the drink she had requested. Jason continued to stare at this woman sitting in front of him. She was a short, petite, blond, and absolutely gorgeous in Jason's opinion.

She looked up at him and caught him staring at her. She smiled a beautiful smile at him causing her eyes to light up.

"Hi, I'm Courtney." Jason snapped out of his reverie when he realized that she was speaking to him.

"I'm Jason." He extended his hand out to her and she took his larger hand in hers and shook it. They immediately felt a jolt go through their bodies. They were broken out of their reverie when Sonny set Courtney's apple martini down in front of her.

"Thank-you." She smiled at Sonny politely before she started to slowly drink her martini. They finished their drinks in silence before Courtney got up to leave. She walked passed Jason and smiled at him.

"It was nice meeting you Jason." She whispered this in his ear as she walked by and out the door.

Jason was walking down the road thinking about the beautiful and mysterious Courtney when he suddenly bumping hard into another person.

"Hey watch where you are going." The man said with an Australian accent.

"I was watching why don't you?" Jason told the man.

"Do you know who you are talking to?" The man asked.

"Yeah. Your Jasper 'Jax' Jacks, and I don't think you get to walk around acting all holier than thou. You're not special and you ain't nothing." Two of Jax thugs walked up in front of Jax ready to start a fight when Jax suddenly started laughing.

"I like you. You don't back down like these two idiots. You have spunk kid. What's your name?"

"I ain't a kid and my name is Jason."

"I would like to offer you a job Jason. You look like you don't take nothing from anybody."

"Why? You don't even know me."

"I just told you. You have attitude and you don't look like you take anything from anybody."

"I know what you do for a living Jax, and I would like to stay alive."

"Suit yourself kid, but if you every get the urge or need the money, call me." Jax handed Jason a card with a number on it and he left with his two thugs. Jason was about to throw the number away when he thought about his apartment. He decided to keep the number. Just incase.

I hope you like it. Tell me what you think and if I should continue. I would like to thank hanna415 for the title. I love it. Believeinjourney66, I do love Sonny, but he can't be the mob boss because Courtney being with the mob boss is important to the story, and Courtney with Sonny would be just way to weird. Anyways tell me what you think.
