What I Really Meant To Say –
He fought his way thru the flames, dodging falling beams, praying that he would make it out alive. He had to, there was so much more he needed and wanted to say to her and he intended to continue the kiss they had started earlier. As he saw the light of day up ahead of him he stumbled out the door to the alleyway, coughing as the fresh air hit his lungs. Frantically he began looking for her, she had to be here; she had to have made it out. He saw Courtney, Sonny, Luke, where was she? He called out to her
"Carly!"
It took me by surprise
When I saw you standin' there
Close enough to touch
Breathin' the same air
You asked me how I'd been
I guess that's when I smiled and said just fine
Oh, but baby I was lyin'
She raised her head and saw him stumbling out of the building, without hesitation she ran to him, launching herself into his arms. Between sobs she kept repeating over and over "Thank god Jase, Thank god!"
He made it, he was alive and he had her back in his arms. He closed his eyes tightly shutting out the stares from Courtney and Sonny and pulled her closer into him, she was all that mattered and he just couldn't get her close enough.
Courtney and Sonny looked on devastated as reality hit them. It was obvious that both their lives and marriages with Jason and Carly were over with. Sonny went over to his sister and wrapped his arms around her. She looked up at Sonny with a questioning look. "It's always been the two of them," he said.
Carly pulled away and grabbed his face "Are you okay Jase? Are you hurt? Do you need to go to the hospital?" She was firing questions off at him in true Carly style, all the while checking him over making sure he was all in one piece.
Jason couldn't help but smile "Carly, Carly," he grabbed her hands, trying to calm her. "I'm fine. What about you?"
C: The minute you walked out that door I was fine.
He took her face in his hands and leaned his forehead into hers "We didn't get to finish what we started inside." Carly searched his eyes, questioning him.
He leaned down and tenderly captured her lips in a kiss; a kiss that started out tentatively then intensified as all the emotions of the day came pouring out between them. They had almost lost each other, lost the other part of themselves, yet here they were together and they had been given another chance to get things right this time around.
What I really meant to say
Is I'm dyin' here inside
And I miss you more each day
There's not a night I haven't cried
And baby, here's the truth
I'm still in love with you
(And, that's what I really meant to say)
Luke looked-on as the two were lip locked in front of everyone. "That's my niece, gotta love her audacity." As he shook his head, he couldn't help but notice the look on Sonny's face and well he couldn't pass up this perfect opportunity to get one of his quick little jabs in, so he sauntered over to Sonny and patted him on the back.
L: Well, well Sonny boy looks like the dynamic duo are back together. Guess this means you can be expecting divorce papers pretty soon.
Sonny swatted away Luke's hand and gave him a menacing look as he escorted his sister away.
L: Geezch………was it something I said?
As Jason and Carly broke apart they both whispered, "wow" then laughed. Jason touched her face "I wasn't sure if I would ever get to see your smile again."
C: Jase,
J: Carly, let me talk okay?
She just nodded, as her eyes already began to fill with tears.
J: Inside you asked me if there was ever more between us than just being friends, and I told you yes. But what I didn't get to say, he paused trying to make the words come out right. What I really meant to say was that I am still in love with you; always have been Carly. We have a chance to get things right this time.
I'm still holdin' on
And here's the honest truth
I'm still in love with you
And, that's what I really meant to say
That's what I really meant to say
That's what I really meant to say
It was a rare moment, Carly was actually speechless. Jason wiped away the tears that were now rolling down her face. "Carly?"
C: What are you saying Jason?
J: I am saying, I love you and want to be with you.
It took her all of about 3 seconds to let his words hit her then she threw her arms around him, hugging him as tightly as she could. "I love you to Jase! I love you too!"
And, that's what I really meant to say………………….
