Chapter 3
At the Brownstone"Bobbie…Bobbie…Momma, are you here?" Carly shouts as she enters the Brownstone.
"Carly, hey baby, what's all the shouting about? Is everything okay with you and Michael? Is Jason okay? What is it?"
"Well Momma, you might need to sit down for this…"
Back in Jason's Room at Jake'sLiz gets ready as she hears Jason's keys turn in the door. She had placed scented candles all over the room. She stood their in what she considered to be sexy, baby blue cashmere sweater that hugged her in all the right places, and black fitted leather knickers and high heeled black sandals…
Jason opens the door…just thinking of the conversation he and Carly had just had. He really was wandering about her important things and was kind of apprehensive. But he found himself greatly anticipating lunch with her tomorrow. He flipped on the light switch not even noticing Liz. Then the strong aroma of the scented candles rose to feel his nostrils. Only then did he see Liz. "Liz what's going on here?"
She flashed him a smile, "I thought we could eat in and have a little fun. Is that okay?"
"Well not actually…sorry Liz, I have several things I need to do tomorrow. So if you don't mind, I think I'm going to call it a night." He noticed the hurt look in her eyes, kind of like Carly's when he had unintentionally hurt her feelings. And valuing Liz's friendship, he continued, "But we'll get together later, okay?"
"Sure Jason," was all she said. After a friendly goodbye, Liz left.
As she walked down the steps away from Jason's room, all she could think, "This has something to do with Carly. I just know it does. Well, she's not going to get him back. I won't allow it! No matter what!"
At the Brownstone"Carly…I don't really know what to say. But I understand some of what's going on better now."
"You hate me, too, don't you, Momma?"
Bobbie hugs Carly to her, "No, no. I don't hate you, honey. I actually understand. When you love somebody, but don't, won't or can't understand and trust that they love you back…you do some very stupid things. I know all about that. I also know, believe it or not, true love, the real kind; the kind you and Jason have, lasts forever…even if the relationship doesn't. I say that not to squash you hopes, but to give you hope. You may not end up together, but when you love like that, you will always be apart of each other's life. I know that isn't exactly what you want. But trust me, that's valuable. That kind of love last always and it seems to forgive the unforgivable.
"I think I'm starting to realize that. I see that with…you know…you and Roy. I even see that with Luke and Laura…I don't know them all that well, well not them together anyway, but I think I really learned that believe it or not in that quacky Quatermaine house. How else would Alan and Monica still be together. And if Lila, she's such a good woman, can be married to that devil, Edward…she must really love him. Momma, what's kind of funny, even AJ sees that. He wants us to be like his grandparents. But I told him that I don't love him and he doesn't love me, and that we don't love each other. That what would be best for everyone, would be for us to go our separate ways. That Michael would be better off with two parents that could be friendly to each other than with two that hate each other. And if we stayed together, that's what would eventually happen."
"What did AJ say to that, Carly?"
"He said that we would learn to love each other. And if I couldn't love him for some faint hope that maybe Jason would love me…to get over it. Because he won't ever love me. AJ says that Jason likes the little girlish innocence…couldn't I see that. He said, 'Look at the ones Jason already chose,' Carly started to weep as she continued on, 'first Robin, somebody I'll never be and now Elizabeth Webber…' He also asked me if I actually thought that I could compete with their girlish charms. AJ then went on to say that I was a lot of things, but girlish and innocent was something that I hadn't been in a long time if ever. Before he went up to bed, he turned around and said that if Jason did happen fall for me by some sort of twisted miracle, that ONE; Michael was HIS son and not Jason's, TWO; that I was his wife and not Jason's and THREE; if I tried to leave, I could, but Michael would never leave…"
"Honey, you are going to be alright."
"Yes, Momma, that's why I came to see you…I was wondering if Michael and I could stay here, with you. For just a little while, at least. I'm divorcing AJ. No matter what. I will not be intimidated by him anymore. Yesterday, I went to see Scott Baldwin. He says we have a chance, but I can't do a couple of things. I can't run to Jason for help. I can't ask AJ for any type of money, except for the baby, and I must leave that house before the papers are served."
"What papers?"
"Well, tomorrow morning, if that's okay with you, Momma…"
"Sure Carly, Caroline," she says touching Carly's arm, "All my children under my roof with me. Lucas will love it, too! But I'll have to let you know that Tony comes to see Lucas on occasion. But that's ok. We'll just have to make a schedule so that you know when he's going to be visiting." Bobbie pauses, "So what about early tomorrow morning? I'm off from the hospital and Kelley's.
Carly sight in relief, "Good Momma, the papers to AJ and Jason will be served exactly at 8:30 A.M."
Author's Note
I am sorry that it has taken me awhile to post this chapter and the many others. As we all know, life be hectic. I also want to thank Anita for having this site. It's always relaxing to come her and enjoy just a little bit of fantasy. For those who don't remember, this story takes place after Carly and Sonny slept together, but Jason never left. And here, Lucky is not back yet. At least not yet. Keep looking for him though. You never know, he might just pop up.
