Chapter 1

Samantha McCall stepped out of her car and looked up at the building in front of her. It wasn't much, but it was all she could afford right now. She stepped back in the car and looked at her brother. Danny was all the family she had left, and she wanted to take good care of him; that was hard when she didn't have money. She smiled at Danny, and he looked like he was going to cry. Her brother had a mental problem, called Fragile X-syndrome. He was behind with everything, but he was the best big brother anyone could ever have.

''It's going to be ok, Danny,'' she whispered, and laid a hand on his knee. He nodded and smiled sadly, and she sighed. ''Come on, we're going in,'' she said, and he nodded again. Danny wasn't much of a talker, but she didn't mind. She would do the talking for both of them.

She had found her brother a year ago, and ever since she took care of him. She used her skills as a con artist to do so. He helped her as much as he could, but never with the cons. He would make sure the house was kept clean when she had to be away.

They stepped out of the car and she locked it. He looked around and smiled; he would like this place once he got used to it, Sam knew. She took his hand and they walked through the doors. The hall was big and dark; the only light was from the spotlights on the ceiling. She hated dark places, and she knew Danny did too. She stepped forward and Danny stayed behind her, and they waited for someone to come to the desk.

It seemed like forever, but suddenly she felt Danny jump; he was really close to her, and she turned around really quick, to see a man in uniform standing in front of her. He was a little taller than she was; she was 1.60-cm. She looked up at his face and almost gasped. He was covered in acne, like she had never seen before. His eyes almost popped out and he looked like he wasn't that bright.

''How can I help you?'' he asked, and she frowned. What could possibly be the reason they were here? The man didn't see her frown; he was too busy looking at her breasts.

''I rented an apartment in here,'' she replied, and he nodded. Then he walked over behind the desk, and both Danny and Sam turned around to watch him type something in the computer.

''What is your name?'' he asked, and she sighed. She didn't think a lot of people rented a place here, but she had to stay calm and just answer his questions.

''Jillian Devlin,'' she stated, and he nodded again and typed some more. Then he turned around and searched for the key, and he handed it to her.

''Third floor, second door on the left,'' he said, and she nodded and looked at Danny.

''Come on, sweetheart,'' she said, ''we're going up,'' she added, and he nodded and took her hand again. She hoped the apartment was lighter, because she couldn't live in a place that's dark. Once they were up on the third floor, and standing in front of the door, Danny spoke.

''Jillian Devlin?'' he asked, and she nodded with a smile. She would explain later. He seemed to catch on, because he didn't say anything and she opened the door. It revealed a small living room, and she sighed of relief when she saw it wasn't as dark as the hall downstairs. She could feel Danny relax too, when he saw it, and she smiled. The place was completely furnished; she had asked for it, because she didn't want to stay here for too long. This was the only way to get settled sooner. ''Sam, you need to tell me why you used an alias,'' Danny said, and he pulled her towards the couch and pushed her down; after that he sat down himself and looked at her expectantly.

''Listen, Danny,'' she started with a sigh, ''I can't give my name here, because you know everyone will know who I am,'' she said, and he nodded. ''I need to play this game one more time, and after that we will have a normal life, ok?'' she felt bad about taking him with her everywhere she went, but she didn't want to leave him behind. He was her brother; she never wanted to lose him out of her sight ever again.

''I understand,'' he said, and smiled at her. She knew he would understand. ''Are you going out tonight, then?'' he asked, and she nodded her head sadly.

She had a con that involved her marrying a man – a rich old man. She had been all over the place, and she had decided to do it one last time, in Port Charles. After that she would leave town, and settle down somewhere with Danny. He didn't really know what she did to get the money, but he never asked. He knew it was something complicated, and that she didn't want him to know what she did to get it. He saw it as a game.

''You know I have to, Danny,'' she whispered, and he nodded again. ''I will make sure that this time I will take less time, ok?'' to that, he smiled. She would just have to make sure she would get married fast, and then take the money. ''Come on, lets get our stuff up here,'' she said, and he nodded. They got up and made their way down to get their stuff.

Once they had brought their stuff up, she ordered dinner. They both loved Chinese, and she had found a little place before, when they drove through the town to get here.

''You like it?'' she asked him, and he nodded. She could see he was enjoying it, and she had to be honest she did too. ''Good – me too. This means we can order there more often,'' she added, and he smiled.

''What are you going to do tonight?'' Danny asked her, and she thought about how to answer him. She had heard about a man named Sonny Corinthos. She knew he was dangerous but that made it all the more fun. She was going to go through his enforcer, Jason Morgan. She would go to Jake's, a little bar in town, where she knew Jason liked to spend time, and she would befriend him. After she had befriended him she would go on to the boss; Sonny Corinthos was the mob boss. They tried to hide it, but the places she went were full of rumors about them. She looked up at Danny before she spoke.

''I'm going out,'' she replied, she didn't want to tell Danny the details about where she would go. He nodded; he knew he shouldn't ask too many questions because she would just avoid answering.

He got up to clear the boxes, and she helped him get them to the kitchen. After she had put them down she went to her bedroom. She didn't need much time, but she wanted to take a shower and change before she went out. She took a shower and felt a little more relaxed every minute. This was something she was good at – playing games and conning men. She had done it many times before. The last time didn't go as planned, and she had left the house with a broken wrist. The man she was conning had found out what she was doing and almost beat her to death; that was before she shot him. She pleaded self-defense; it went on trial and she won the case. She didn't have a doubt about it at the time, but she knew now she could've easily lost it and then she had to go to jail. She was glad it didn't work out that way.

She got dressed in a jeans and a simple tank top, she didn't have to impress Jason, but she had to befriend him. She walked back to the living room where she grabbed the pocket mirror and slapped on some make-up. Danny came back to the living room just as she was about to finish, and he smiled at her.

''You look great, Sam,'' he said, and she smiled up at him. He would always say that, even if she was wearing the most horrible clothes. She got up, gave him a hug ad kissed him on his cheek.

''I will be late, so don't wait up, ok?'' she said, and he nodded. ''What are you going to do?''

''Watching some TV, maybe read that magazine,'' he said, pointing at the magazine about bikes. He loved bikes, and she had bought that magazine on the way over here.

''Have fun, baby,'' she said, and smiled when he rolled his eyes. He didn't like it when she called him that, but she was the only one who could talk to him like that. He waved when she opened the door, and just before she closed the door she could see him sit down with the magazine. She smiled as she walked to the elevator and pressed the button. He was such a sweet boy, and she wished she could take better care of him.

She stepped out of the elevator and hurried to her car; she really didn't like this place much. She drove to Jake's, and smiled when she found it right away. She had been looking at the map to see where it was, and was glad she didn't drive past it. She got out of the car, and walked towards the doors. She pushed them open and saw it wasn't really busy, and at a glance around the room she found Jason wasn't there yet.

She walked over to the bar and sat down. The bartender came over right away, and asked her what she wanted.

''A beer, please,'' she said, and he nodded and grabbed her a beer and gave it to her, after taking off the cap. She took a sip and just sat there for a while, looking at the men playing pool.

After half an hour the door opened and she looked around. Jason was standing in the doorway, looking around and then he came to the bar. She smiled. This was her first chance, and she wasn't planning on blowing it.
