A/N: Jaden is one of my own characters and if you read any of my original stories that aren't fan fiction you will see that she is in many of my stories and has many roles. This takes place before the concert starts
Jaden McCartney walked towards Kelly's not knowing what to expect. She was new in town and she heard that there were apartments for rent above the diner.
When she reached the door she wasn't paying atteniton to what she was doing and she bumped into someone.
"Oh I'm sorry. I wasn't paying attention to where I was going."
"That's okay. There are times that I do that to." Jaden said looking into the man's deep blue eyes. She could get lost in them if she had all day.
"You must be new here? I haven't seen you around here before."
"Yes I am. My name is Jaden McCartney. I moved here from San Fransico to be near my cousin."
"Who's your cousin? I may know him or her." He reached to open the door for both of them.
"Her name is Carly Corthinos Jax. I don't think you know her. She seems to be attracted to bad guys." She was thinking that maybe her cousin was interested in this guy he seemed to be one of the dangerous guys, that Carly mentioned in her letters.
"I know your cousin, as it should have it I know your cousin very well." Jason said showing her to a table and pulling a chair out for her.
"And you would be?" Jaden asked but before she got an answer two little boys came running up to Jason.
"Jason, Hey, why didn't you come over last night. I thought you were going to watch us while Mom and Jax went out to dinner"
"I was supposed to but your mom called and said that she didn't need me to come over so I just hung out with Liz." Jason said. He knew that once he said Liz's name that Jaden wouldn't be interested anymore. Heck he didn't even think she was into him in the first place. He just thought that he would try to get her to open up to him cause he was always nice to the newcomers.
"Who's your new girlfriend?" Michael asked.
"She's my cousin, and she better not be interested." Carly said coming up behind Jason, wrapping her arms around Michael.
"Hi Carly, and you don't have to worry about me being interested in him. He seems to be interested in someone else He's already made that perfectly clear that he's already taken. It was nice meeting you." She said getting up out of the chair." She turned towards Carly. "Let me just get my room and then I will come over so we can catch up." She started away.
"There's no reason for you to get a room we have plenty of space for you at our house. After a tragic accident that killed the boys' nanny, we have had a lot of room to spare." Carly said grabbing Jaden's hand in her's to pull her towards her and take her outside.
"So who are these cute little fellows? Jaden said accepting the invitation to stay but also trying to get to know her little cousins better.
"I'm so sorry I didn't introduce you guys sooner, I guess I was making sure you didn't get hurt your first night here. You never know what could happen here in Port Charles." Carly said getting worried that her cousin was already in love with Jason that she would risk getting hurt for another glance at him. "This is Michael. And that's Morgan." She said pointing each boy out to Jaden.
"Hi."
"Hello.' Michael said putting his hand out so Jaden could shake it. Like he was taught. Morgan did the same.
" I cannot wait for you to meet my husband, Jacks he is such a romantic, and you should like him the minute you lay eyes on him."
"Speaking of guys can you tell me more about that Jason fellow that I met in front of Kelly's diner. I found him rather interesting." Jaden said hoping that Carly would tell her more about him. She really found him attractive and was hoping to get to see him really soon.
" Well, what can I say. He's a really nice guy once you get to know him, quiet but nice. He's really shy until you get to know him and then he becomes a really good friend. I should know he has gotten me out of some pretty rough spots in the past twenty years.
"Have you ever dated him?" Jaden asked with curiousty dripping from her voice. She could tell that she had a crush on him and she didn't want Carly to know cause she would get mad and forbid her to see him again. She didn't want that to happen.
"I'm warning you now. Stay away from him. It seems that every woman he has been with always ends up hurt. The girl he mentioned, Liz is the mother of his child and he told her that he couldn't be with her cause he didn't want their child to end up dead because of his line of work. I agree with him but I don't think that he should have abandoned her or his child for that reason. So no matter what you do stay away from him. I dont' need my little cousin getting hurt."
They had reached the house and were standing outside talking. Jax walked out the door as soon as he noticed that Carly was standing outside with her cousin.
"Well you must be Carly's cousin Jaden that came all the way from San Francisco, just so she could be near Carly." He said putting his hand out so she could shake it.
"Yes, I love it here, so many nice people and my cousin is being so nice telling me who to stay away from. You know Carly, I am an adult now and I know who and who not to stay away from. Thank you for the place to stay I really appreciate it but I will more than likely be seeing Jason again. He does live here and I do to now so there is a chance that I could bump into him in town or something." She said storming into the house dragging her suitcase behind her.
