Las Mareas, Puerto Rico-Present Day
"Krissy, baby c'mon we got to check in at the hotel" she said calling her sun-kissed child.
When she turned around again she saw her daughter skipping towards her. It amazed her everyday to see how much she was starting to look like Sonny. Her little curls bounced in the Puerto Rican sun; dark eyes that were willed at every emotion. She was broken out of her daze when she heard the little girl's mouth open.
"Mommy, I love Porico it's bootiful" she said not yet being able to fully annunciate her words.
"Yeah, little one; mommy loves Puerto Rico too" she said thinking about the man who had made her love the island.
She knew that it wasn't exactly the best idea coming to Puerto Rico considering this was the place of one of his most important business ventures…so she booked a room at the Hotel Alejandra on the other side of the Island, far enough from San Juan to ensure their confidentiality, but close enough to remember the feeling she had the last time she was here. It had ended too soon that night, and a part of her always wondered what that night would have been if they hadn't received that call. She sighed and let herself into the suite; willing herself to forget those nights long ago…
San Juan-Puerto Rico-Present Day
He let himself into the suite; having to tell the bell-boy at least a thousand times that he didn't need an escort to the room. When he opened the doors he felt the familiarity overwhelm him. He hadn't brought another down here since her…even Carly. Every time she suggested they go he made some excuse to avoid it. This was their place...a piece of her that he could hold on to. He went and sat on the bed and remembered the night they had almost been able to share…before life once again interrupted them...it was truly the night he knew that he had begun to fall in love with her. The only time she looked more beautiful than that night was when she was sleeping wrapped up in his satin sheets. Deep in the recesses of his mind he knew that was the closest he would get to heaven…was in her arms.
He lay on the bed of burgundy satin, and he thought of her…the way she tasted, the way her body felt in his arms, how the silky tresses of her hair felt in his hands. He had lost her…but they would always have Puerto Rico.
Las Mareas, Puerto Rico
Jason Morgan found his way to the other side of Puerto Rico visiting the new resort that Sonny had purchased. The Hotel Alejandra was nestled in a small seaside community on the Caribbean side of the island. He didn't know why Sonny had selected this hotel, but he knew that Sonny felt a connection to this particular hotel and he seemed happy to be acquiring it. The truth was Jason was concerned about Sonny. He wanted to say that it was because of Carly and her deception, but the truth was Sonny hadn't been Sonny for a long time. He seemed sadder since Jason had come back to town. It was like he was always searching for something; like everything around him just seemed "off". He remembered Carly saying that it was that Alexis was gone, and Sonny was now in one of his moods. He figured that it would blow over, but it didn't. Then Carly did her little dance and got pregnant by Ric, and then left him for Alcazar. He figured this could be the event to push Sonny over the edge, but Sonny just handled it. It was like he had already lost everything before Carly's betrayal, and losing Carly didn't faze him. In fact it seemed to clarify things in his head. He started to focus on business, family, Michael, and then came this hotel. He remembered when he saw the name "Alejandra" that he knew there must be more truth to Carly's statement than Jason could fathom.
He was caught up in the thought for a moment; when she walked out of the elevator. He thought for a second he had conjured her up, but then he heard the concierge call her and he knew it was her. She looked different than he had last seen her. Instead of a business suit; she had on a billowy sundress that covered her bronzed skin. She seemed happy, but for an observant man like Jason he saw some underlying sadness in her eyes. He watched her walk out to the beach, and it that split second made the decision to follow her.
He watched her walk down to the water's edge. Then he saw her…with her raven curls bouncing atop her mocha tinted skin. She smiled a wide dimpled smile when she spotted Alexis, and he heard her speak.
"Mama! Mama…come in the water it's wonderful" she exclaimed jumping into her mother's arms.
He then heard Alexis speak, and in that one instant it was confirmed.
"You love the water little one? You don't just look like your daddy then…your daddy loves the water too" he heard her say sadly.
In that moment he felt it…and he knew…Alexis' daughter was not a Quartermaine…
