Claudia had her brother's words echoing through her head all day and she decided to go over to Jason's and talk to him about what he wanted. She knew something was up and she needed to figure out if Jason still wanted a life with her. But, she wasn't sure if she could handle him saying no. Claudia rang the doorbell to Jason's house and then realized that she was his girlfriend and she had a key, so she let herself in. All the lights in the house were off, but Jason's car was in the driveway do he had to be home. Claudia walked up the stairs and made her way to Jason's bedroom. The door was open a crack and she pushed it open. Her eyes became glued to a scene that she should have never seen. Jason and Carly were wrapped in a thin white sheet, making love, in Jason's bed. Tears swelled up in Claudia's eyes and anger and hurt raced through her body, as she watched her boyfriend bang the hell out of her best friend. "You cheating liar!" Claudia yelled out. Carly and Jason both jolted up, with shocked expressions on their faces. They both started to scramble for their clothes. "Don't get dressed on my account. I can't believe this. Johnny was trying to warn me and I was defending you! What a sap I was! I hate you… I hate you both and I'll never forgive you two for this. We are over Jason and Carly… I don't even know what to say to you. You are supposed to be my best friend. How could you do this to me, the both of you!"

Jason and Carly were looking down, feeling ashamed of what they did. "I'm sorry," Carly whispered.

"You both can shove it, because you are backstabbing tramp and he's a cheating ass and I want nothing to do with either of you!" Claudia yelled running out of Jason's house. She jumped into he convertible and sped off toward the house of a friend that she knew she could count on and trust; Robin.

Robin Scorpio's doorbell rang and her Uncle Mac opened the door. Sonny was standing there, black and blues covering his face. "Sonny, what happened to you? Did you get mugged or something?" Mac asked as he saw how beat up Sonny's face was. Mac brought Sonny inside and inspected the wounds on his face. Sonny was also a good family friend of the Scorpios and he occasionally lived there when he had "problems" with his step-dad. Today was one of those days.

"I just had some problems with my step-dad, Mac," Sonny explained.

"Did he do this to you?" Mac began, "Sonny, I'm a cop if you want me to press charges…"

"No, no, no, I just want to go up to my room if that's okay," Sonny told him.

Mac replied, "Yeah, that's fine with me, uh Robin went out, but she should be back soon." Sonny just nodded his head and walked up the stairs to his room. He had talked to Jason earlier that day and Jason confirmed that he had been sleeping with Carly for about two months, which was a little shocking to Sonny, because they were still only seventeen, but some are just more ready than others. Sonny laid back on the bed and heard the doorbell ring from downstairs. He figured it was just Robin and she forgot her keys, so he closed his eyes and relaxed, flinching at the pain of his wounds.

Claudia walked into the Scorpio house with tears streaming down her face. She had been hurt so bad and she really just needed a girl talk with her true best friend right now. "Is Robin here?" She finally asked, after Mac closed the door.

"No, but she should back soon, do you want me to call your father?" Mac asked her.

"No, no, no, I just need to talk to Robin, do you mind if I wait for her to come home?" Claudia tried speaking, still crying heavily.

"Yeah, you can go wait upstairs in her room," Mac explained. Claudia just nodded her head and walked up the stairs. She could barely even think straight and walked over to the first door she saw, mascara and tears streaming down her face, and opened the door, thinking it was Robin's room. She walked inside the room and Sonny jumped up and off the bed.

"Oh, I'm sorry, I thought that this was Robin's room," Claudia tried apologizing.

"No, relax, it's fine, you are obviously really upset about something, do you want to talk about it?" Sonny tried reaching out to her.

"Sonny, you may be apart of "the group", but I still don't know you very well and I don't know if I'm… oh what the heck," Claudia decided, slamming the door shut, walking into the room, and collapsing on the bed. "You work for my father right?"

"Yes, Ms. Zacchara," Sonny answered.

"Please, call me Claudia and I need for you to not mention a word of what I'm about to tell you," Claudia explained to him. Sonny nodded his head and sat down next to her.

"You can tell me anything, I'm your friend," Sonny told her sincerely.

Claudia looked down at her shaky hands and the tears came down harder. "Jason's cheating on me!" She confessed. "I walked in on him having sex with Carly! How could they do this to me?" Sonny pulled her into a hug and she held him tightly.

"I'm really sorry, Claudia. But think of the bright side, it's better that you found out now, instead of ten years from now when you're married and have kids," Sonny tried convincing her.

"You're right, you're absolutely right and I am never putting my heart up for that kind of betrayal again. As far as I know it, love just doesn't exist anymore," Claudia agreed with him. Sonny tried to look convincing, but he was saddened inside, because he happened to like Claudia a lot and he has had this secret crush on her since she had come back to Port Charles and he always, somewhere deep down, hoped that her and Jason would be over so he would get his chance with her, but she never wanted to be with anyone again. And that broke his heart to match hers.
