Chapter 10:

Sam opened the door to Carly, who was knocking constantly. Yesterday when they had left, she had just been sitting there, gazing at the door. She had fallen asleep at the couch and woke up the next morning there.

''Carly, can I help you with something?'' Sam asked. Carly nodded.

''You can explain what that was all about, with Jason.'' Sam shrugged. ''Well? Aren't you going to tell me? Why is Jason so angry?''

''It's none of your business. It's between me and Jason.'' Carly became angry and wanted to say something when Sam stopped her.

''I need to go to Jason, and when I explained it to him, I don't care if you run to him and ask him, but I am not going to tell you anything.'' Sam left, leaving Carly standing there.

She searched for Jason, but he wasn't at Kelly's, so she called him. He didn't pick up the phone. She called Sonny, asked if he had seen Jason but he said he hadn't seen him. He asked her to come over to his place. When she got there Sonny was waiting for her in his office.

''Hey, come in,'' he said. ''I need to tell you something, now Jason isn't there to tell it.'' She sat down when he gestured, and looked at Sonny when he talked.

''Listen.. I know about what Manny did to you, and I'm sorry.'' Sam widened her eyes, she didn't know Sonny knew. ''Yeah, I know. Jason told me before all this happened. But listen. This man is sick. He is from the Miami mob, and their family moved here to try and take over from me. You know?'' Sam nodded confused. ''Now.. Jason shot his brother, and Manny is seeking revenge on Jason and me, and I heard Manny recently moved here, so, I wanted to put guards on you so you wouldn't have to be afraid.''

''Ok, I don't care, as long as he doesn't get to me again. Thanks Sonny.''

''Ok.. I'll have them on you on the next hour. But before you go,'' he said when she was about to rise from the chair, ''I want you to focus on Jason, ok?''

''Yes, I was just looking for him when I called you. I need to see him to tell him this about Manny, because he got a disk from Manny, and he thinks.. I slept with Manny.. On my own free will..'' Sam said with a shake voice. Sonny nodded and Sam left.

That day Sam didn't find Jason, but she knew he was still in town.

For the next five weeks she kept looking for him, but every time she asked someone about him, they said he had just left. It was like he was avoiding her. She had given up after a month, hoping he would come to her when he was ready for it.

Sam woke up sick to her stomach, and she moaned. This wasn't the first time, more like every morning for the last couple of weeks. She had decided last night she would go to the store to buy a pregnancy test. She knew she wouldn't be able to carry the baby to term if she was pregnant, but she had to know. She couldn't go on like this, waking up every morning without knowing what was wrong with her. She got up from the bed after stretching herself and took a shower. When she got out of the shower she got dressed and walked downstairs. She didn't feel like eating, so she made herself a cup of tea for her upset stomach.

She got up after she had finished her tea and walked out of the penthouse, grabbing her coat on the way. She put on her coat while waiting on the elevator, and decided to walk to the store, because it was a beautiful day.

After she had bought the test, she had it in a brown paper bag, and decided to go to the docks to bring up courage. When she arrived at the docks, she stood there, watching over the water. She missed being on the ocean, with nothing but water around her. That's why she loved Port Charles. There was so much water.

''Sam,'' she heard a soft voice. She turned around. It was Jason.

''Where have you been?'' Sam asked, trying not to show she had been concerned about him.

''I'm so sorry Sam,'' Jason replied, ''I was in town but I couldn't see you.'' There was a silence. ''There is something I need to tell you,'' he then said.

''Tell me,'' she replied. He came closer, and wanted to tell her, when Carly showed up.

''Jason! I have been looking for you.''

''What's up?'' Jason asked.

''I just wanted to know you were ok..''

''I am. But I'm trying to have a conversation here, so could you leave us alone for a minute? I will be with you then..'' Carly looked at him and then at Sam

''What's that you got there?'' she asked Sam, while pointing at the paper bag she was carrying.

''It's… Nothing,'' Sam replied, and she looked at Jason. She wanted to be sure before she told him. Carly shrugged, and walked away without saying anything else.

''Ok, Sam, A week and a half ago, I started remembering things you said when we were in Hawaii. After that, the memories of my life kept on coming, and I remember everything now.'' Sam looked confused, then she looked happy.

''O, that's great Jason!'' but then she thought of something. ''Why didn't you come to me?''

''I just thought you didn't want to see me after I avoided you for almost a month. I thought I'd give you some time.''

''Wow.. that doesn't make sense to me. But that happened. Can't turn back now, can we?'' she said. She was pissed at him, for not coming to her when he remembered.

''So, you want to stay at Kelly's right?'' she said, frowning.

''Your pissed,'' Jason noticed. She raised one eyebrow, and he nodded. ''Ok I will stay at Kelly's for a while. I have to go out of town for a while, that's why I came and look for you.''

''What? You just told me you got your memory back, and then you tell me you have to leave?'' She was raging. ''Ok, well, I will see you when you get back in town, right?''

''Yeah, I will come straight home,'' Jason replied, now feeling guilty for not telling Sam. Sam had walked away when he had finished the sentence without saying goodbye, and he didn't blame her at all. He wanted to know what she was hiding in that bag.
