Chapter 3
"Another one Coleman." Sam said placing her glass on the bar top.
As much as she tried Sam could not get the image of seeing her cousin and Elizabeth together out of her head. Not being able to deal with either of them, she had taken off. Before Sam headed to Jack's, she called here sisters, who were both spending the night at a friend's. To say she was angry would be an understatement, Elizabeth had been able to fool half the town into thinking that she was this perfect little wife and mother. It's no secret that Sam and Liz couldn't stand each other, mostly because Elizabeth used to have a thing for Jason.
"I think she had enough."
"I was wondering when you were going to come over." Sam said turning to face the man.
" I thought you needed space." Jason said taking a seat next to her.
"What brought you here?" Sam asked as she took another shot of tequila.
"I needed to think."
"So you came here to get drunk and play pool."
"Seems like you had the same idea."
"Yup." Sam smiled as she took another shot.
"Okay, I can do this. He is not going kill me, just going to fix my car." Maxie mumbled as she opened the old repair shop.
"I was wondering if you were going to back out." Johnny said stepping out of the back room, scaring Maxie in the process.
"Are you trying to kill me?" She huffed as she through her back on the old couch. He didn't say anything and walked out the door.
"Well, it's going to take a few days to fix." Johnny stated as he came in ten minutes later.
"Are you always this rude? Or am I just special. First you run into my car. Than you lead me to this old place, that has obviously not been used in forever. So how exactly do you plan on fixing my car?"
"Do you ever shut up? I am going to fix your car, this is my garage." Johnny replied sitting on the stool.
"You're a mechanic?"
"It's more of a hobby, so I'm going to fix your car to apologize."
"I would say no, but I just bought a very expensive pair of shoes."
"Well, it's a deal." He smirk holding out his hand.
"Deal, but you have to give me a ride back."
"As long as you don't talk." Johnny mumbled as he headed back out the door.
"So let me get this straight you tell me not to get involved but it's fine for you." Carly yelled as she faced Sonny.
"Carly, all I did was confront Sam and try to knock some sense into Jason." Sonny said sitting down.
"How is that not getting involved? I just want them to be happy again." Carly moaned as she sat next to them.
"They have to work it out on their own, I was just giving them a push in the right direction."
"You know what's funny? Normally it's the other way around. Sam and Jason trying to help us."
"We own them a lot. They helped keep us together, at least for a little while."
"Until, thing got to complicated." Carly mumbled
"I was the one that couldn't see past the lies, but now I see why you did it."
"I should have told you, part of me thought that you were going to go running to Alexis when you found out about Kristina."
"We both made mistakes."
"Yeah, but the one thing that never changes is that at the end of the day we always end up okay. I think that's what drove Jax to-do what he did, he knew I would always be connect to you and that make him think he might lose me."
"He didn't have anything to worry about."
"No, he did." Carly whispered as she leaned closer to him.
"You know the one thing I never thanked you for was not giving into that whore." Sam slurred as she tried to get out of the car.
"Why would I when I had you?" Jason said as he threw money at the cab.
"That's really sweet." Sam smiled as she jumped into Jason's arms and wrapping her legs around his waist.
Jason didn't say anything and just stumbled into the elevator as she started to kiss his neck. Jason gently set Sam down as he tried to unlock the door which would be easier if he was sober. As soon as the door was opened, Jason picked her up and headed straight for the bedroom.
The incessant ringing had finally woken the women up, Carly sighed as she sat up making sure not to wake the person next to her. She quickly put the nearest thing on and scrabbled to find her cellphone. She glanced at the screen before picking it up.
"Sam, I never thought that you'd be up this early, it's seven." Carly said as glancing at the clock.
"I need you to come get me?" Sam whispered as she picked up her shoes and quickly headed down the stairs.
"Okay, where are you?"
"At the penthouse."
"Jason's? I am so happy for you!" Carly yelled
"Carly, stop we both had to much to drink. Please just come." Sam pleaded knowing that if she saw Jason she wouldn't have the strength to walk away again.
"Yeah, I'm leaving now, I'll bring you some clothes so you don't have to-do the walk of shame." Carly laughed as she grabbed her bag and hung up the phone.
"Okay, do you have a plan?" Carly asked as the two sat in Kelly's half an hour later.
"Avoid him." Sam mumbled as she took a sip of her coffee.
"That's not going to be easy considering you both are coming to dinner tonight." Carly smiled.
"What has you so happy?"
"Well, the fearsome foursome will be back together again."
"Fearsome foursome? Who is that?"
"Sonny, Jason, you and me. That's what people used to call us."
"What people, the ones it your head?"
"You should be nicer to me."
"You are not going to get away with blackmailing me, because you looked like you had some fun last night too." Sam laughed as she pointed to Carly's neck.
"I have no idea what you are are talking about." Carly said quickly covering her neck.
"Oh Sam, I'm glad I caught you." The women turned to see Elizabeth standing there.
"Well, I don't plan on going to jail today so I am going to leave." Carly smiled as she gave Sam a hug. "I'll see you tonight." She called leaving.
"What do you want?" Sam snapped.
"Look what you walked in on the other night."
"You mean, you having sleeping with my cousin. You know I think you wanted to get caught, doing it right on the couch."
"It was a one time thing, a moment of weakness, I mean that's why Jason broke up with you because of you and Patrick. I just don't want you to-do something stupid and tell Lucky."
"Well I know this concept is new to you, but you can have male friends and not sleep with them, or in your case try to. But you are right I am not going to tell Lucky, he needs to hear it from you. I just hope it was a one time thing. Sam said standing.
"It was. Sam thank you."
"I didn't do it for you I did it for Lucky."
"Did what for me?" A voice from behind the girls said.
"Lucky, I was telling Sam I was thankful she had a talk with Nik."
"What did I talk to Nik about?" Sam asked
"How he is misplacing his emotions of Alexis and Emily's death on me."
"Oh right, Lucky I hope your coming over for Molly's birthday in a few weeks." Sam said changing the subject.
"Of course. Well are you ready to go Liz?" Lucky asked taking Elizabeth's hand.
"It was good to talk to you Sam and thank you." Liz smiled as she followed Lucky out.
"Do I even want to know what just happened here." Patrick greeted as he came through the door.
"Well everyone is here today, but you are the person I need to see."
"Now, what have you done?" He asked pulling Sam back to her table.
"Okay, you can't tell anyone. Last night I walked in on Nik and Liz together and than I went to Jake's where I ended up drinking too much, which let me to sleep with Jason. I now have to face him tonight at Sonny's." Sam rambled.
"Together together?"
"No, they were doing crosswords." Sam snapped.
"You don't have to be so mean. So what are you going to-do?"
"I hope she tells him and I don't have to-do anything."
"Well, I know what can take your mind off it, shopping and I'll even go with you."
"Wow, spending the whole day with Patrick Drake. I am a lucky girl. I'll go, I have the whole day free."
"What about the younger Davis girls."
"Kristina is with her boyfriends and Carly is picking up Molly to play with Morgan." Sam said standing and grabbing her bag.
"Let's get this shopping over with." Patrick said as he put his arm around Sam and headed out the door. Both unaware that someone was watching them.
