Chapter 10

Sam woke up alone, and she sat up. She thought Jason had been here, but she had been wrong. She sighed and got out of bed, put on her bathrobe and walked to the kitchen. She was surprised to see Jason standing there, only his jeans on and he was making coffee.

''Morning,'' he said, without turning around and she smiled.

''Morning to you too,'' she replied, and that's when he turned around. He pulled her to him and kissed her.

''Did you sleep ok? I mean, after last night, and that dream,'' he asked, and she smiled.

''I did, thank you,'' she replied, and he nodded. He poured her a cup of coffee and handed it to her, and she nodded her thanks. They walked to the living room and sat down, and drank their coffee in comfortable silence.

''I have to go out for business,'' Jason said, and she looked up at him. ''Sonny called me this morning and said I had to make sure everything was alright in Brazil,'' he said, and she nodded.

''Ok, how long do you have to stay there?'' she asked, and he shrugged.

''I don't know yet, but I hope I will be home soon. I leave when I'm ready,'' he said, and she nodded. He just had to pack and then he would be gone.

''I think I'm even going to miss you,'' she said with a smile, and she realized it was the truth. He nodded, and then he took the cup from her hands and put it on the table. Then he kissed her passionately, and laid her down on the couch while laying on top of her.

''You want to give me something to remember before I leave?'' he asked, and she nodded with a grin. She would give him something to remember.

''Danny, don't go there yet, we didn't hear him leave yet,'' Tamara said, and Danny sighed.

''I know, but I need that magazine,'' he replied. He liked Tamara, but she didn't know a lot about him because Sam had told him not to tell her too much.

''You know what? We are just going to the store now, and buy a new one,'' Tam said, and he smiled.

''You know, I like the idea. Tam…'' he said, his voice fading when he heard something next door. He widened his eyes when he saw Tam laugh, ''what are they doing?''

''Don't worry, that's all good in there. What did you want to say?''

''Do you think Sam is in love with Jason?'' he asked, and when he saw the look of surprise on her face he knew he had slipped up.

''I knew there was something. Jillian didn't sound like her name anyway,'' she said with a smile, and he widened his eyes.

''Sorry. O god, Sam is going to flip out!'' Danny exclaimed, and Tam shook her head.

''I am not going to tell her. I just want you to tell me what is going on,'' she said, and she pulled him to the couch.

''Ok, just promise me you wont tell her,'' he said, and when she nodded he sighed and started telling her. ''Sam is trying to make sure we live a good life, and she cons man out of their money,'' he said, and she widened her eyes. After this, she wouldn't trust him again, he knew it, but he liked her, and he wanted her to know.

''She…'' Tam started, but he shook his head and she stopped.

''She doesn't know I know this, but she wants to provide for me. She makes the men fall for her, then marries them and clears their bank accounts,'' he said, ''but this time is different, because normally we would be out of town now.''

''Ok, so you think she is in love with the man?'' she asked, and he nodded.

''I do, because she's even invited him home, she never does that,'' he replied, and she nodded. ''I just want her to stop, so we can stay here,'' he said.

''You know what? We go run a con ourselves,'' Tam said, and she had a grin on her face. Danny smiled, ''she wouldn't know what hit her,'' Tam said.

''What do you want to do?'' Danny asked, and Tam began telling him the plan.

Sam laid on his chest, and smiled. She knew he had to go, but he was asleep right now, and she didn't want to wake him. She wanted him to stay here, but she knew there was no way he would do that. He had a job to do, and she knew what.

''Jill, you know I have to go,'' she suddenly heard him say, and she looked up.

''I know,'' she said, and she got up. He did the same and got dressed, while she wrapped the blanket around herself. ''Just… be careful,'' she said, and he nodded.

''I will. You too, and I'll call you,'' he said, after he returned to the living room. She smiled at him, glad he would call her.

''Ok, go, before I ask you to stay,'' she said, and he smiled. ''See you soon,'' she said, and she leaned in to kiss him one last time.

''Bye,'' he said, and he opened the door and walked away. She looked at him until he stepped in the elevator, and then walked back in the apartment and walked towards the bathroom. She would take a shower, and then she was going to get Danny.

Jason sighed as he stepped inside the jet. He didn't want to leave, but Sonny had told him there was a problem in Brazil and he needed to get it under control. Sam had understood, and when she said goodbye to him, the way she did, was breathtaking. He really did like her, and he was surprised he didn't want to go. Suddenly his phone rang and he picked it up without looking at the caller ID.

''Jase, where are you going?'' he heard Emily ask, and he sighed. How she found out he was going somewhere, he didn't know, but he didn't want to tell her too much. He knew she knew about his job, but that didn't mean he wanted to drag her into it.

''I'm going to Brazil, be back in a couple of days,'' he replied, and she sighed.

''Ok, thanks for telling me. How's Jill?''

''She's ok, listen. Em, I can't talk, have to go,'' he said, and he disconnected the line. he didn't like to do that, especially to his sister but there was no way he was going to tell her about his relationship with Sam.

As the jet started to move, he thought about Sam and smiled. He would love to see her face when he returned.

##########

Sam sat on the couch and waited for Danny, and she was surprised that he didn't show up yet. She got up and walked next door and knocked. A little while later Tamara opened the door.

''Hey,'' Tam said, and she stepped aside to let Sam in. Sam looked around and smiled when she saw Danny on the couch.

''Danny, I was wondering if we could go to Kelly's for breakfast,'' Sam said, and he nodded. ''You want to come, Tam?'' Sam asked, and Tam nodded.

''I would love too, let me grab my stuff and I'll be right back,'' Tam said, and Danny got up.

''Did you have a nice night?'' he asked, and she nodded.

''Yeah. Jason left to go on a business trip,'' she said, and he frowned.

''Ok, so that's why you came to get me? You felt alone?'' he asked, and she frowned at the anger in his voice.

''No, Danny, don't be like this. I came to get you because I…'' her voice faded when she saw his face, and she knew she couldn't say anything to change his mind about this.

''I want to go to Kelly's. But maybe it's best if I go alone with Tam. I don't want you with me today,'' Danny said, and he grabbed Tams hand as she walked back in the room and they walked away. Sam gasped, Danny had never been this angry with her. She walked back to her apartment and she knew she had to do something to make Danny see she didn't mean it like that.

''Maybe it's time to give up,'' she said to herself, meaning the game.
