Chapter 21

Jason held a shaking Elizabeth in his arms. He wasn't quite able to speak himself, the force of his own and Elizabeth's orgasm had taken him by surprise. He held himself above her, pressing soft kisses against her damp cheek. She tucked her head down and buried her face in his shoulder.

"Elizabeth?" he whispered wanting to look in to her eyes. She shook her head and snuggled even closer to his shoulder, hiding her face from him. Panic started to rise in Jason, did she regret it, had he hurt her? He should have had more consideration for her head injury.

"Elizabeth? Are you okay?" he asked in concern..

"mmmhm" The sound was muffled against his shoulder but he understood that the answer was in the affirmative, he was just uncertain as to why she was hiding her face.

"Elizabeth look at me" he asked quietly. He tucked a finger under her chin and tried to lift her head, but she resisted.

"Jason please. I don't want to talk" came her soft emotion filled refusal.

"I didn't demand a conversation I just want to look at you" he told her his voice raspy with emotion. Elizabeth shook her head in the negative once more.

"Jason I'm just feeling so much"

"and I can't look at you?" he asked her indulgently.

Slowly she raised her head to look at him and there in her eyes was all the love and passion she felt for him. She took his breath away. He leaned forward and rested his forehead against hers, finally breathing with relief. He raised his head to look into her eyes.

"You're so beautiful" his voice cracking. "You always were"

Elizabeth blushed and giggled at the compliment, leaning up to kiss his chin.

"Please don't hide your face from me when we make love. Whatever you feel, you never have to hide it from me." he told her as he stroked her hair away from her face.

"I know, I was just overwhelmed for a moment and finding it hard to believe that after all this time we are finally together." she confessed her voice husky with emotion and unshed happy tears.

He rolled on to his back tucking her snuggly to his side. He couldn't stop the smile from spreading across his face and out of the corner of his eye he could see her matching satisfied smile.

"Well we are together, and can I just say. Wow just WOW" he mused.

"Amazing huh?" she agreed.

"Elizabeth you are like the BEST LAY I've ever had." he responded.

Elizabeth looked sideways not quite believing her ears, the Jason who used to tease her about only being his friend because of his bike or about her silly elf outfit had he re-surfaced? She broke out laughing and smacked him on the good shoulder in protest, all signs of shyness evaporating, as he tried but failed to hide his own teasing smile.

"You better believe it buster." she sighed as stretched with satisfaction. .

"Oh I believe it. I mean I always suspected it but Man oh Man you ARE sensational" he half teased.

Elizabeth snorted "OK stop making fun of me" she smiled.

"I'm not I'm serious" he told her his eyes serious suddenly.

"No you are just being a little over the top" she corrected "like you used to be, before you got scared and pushed me away. I don't mind I guess, but I would never have pegged Jason Morgan for the "corny" lines." she teased.

"Corny lines? ME?" he tried to sound offended "Maybe, may be not, but it's still the truth. No wonder I was so obsessed with you that every time I left, I came back for you. I just couldn't stay away. On some level I must have known you'd give me the best sex of my life." he told her. She looked at him and they both laughed. Jason propped on one elbow gazing at her with an earnest expression.

"I don't know if I'm exaggerating or not. All I know is up until I made love to you I didn't think it was possible for me to love you anymore than I already did. I was wrong I'm more in love than ever."

"You were perfect Jason. Every thing I ever dreamed and more and I love you more every second." she reached up to run her hand lovingly through his hair.

"and..?" Jason questioned.

"and what?" she asked confused.

'and…I'm the best lay you've ever had." he smiled. Elizabeth was silent.

"Elizabeth?" he questioned, confusion marring his expression.

"What?" she looked at him innocently "I'm thinking" she frowned "I said you were perfect." she teased with a smile. Jason sat upright and turned to hover over her, loving her teasing tone.

"Elizabeth?" he said quietly.

A sensuous smile broke out on Elizabeth's face as she raised both hands to stroke his chest.

"Well my control group for comparison is a little low, but, yes you are the best lay I've ever had" she agreed. A sensuous smile broke out over Jason's face.

"and you love me as much as I love you? He prompted teasingly.

"Yes" she smiled lovingly at him.

"and you'll marry me" he prompted again leaning closer.

"Yes" Elizabeth said with out hesitation

"When?" he whispered.

"Whenever you say?" she agreed.

"Tomorrow?" he suggested, excitement entering his voice.

"I have to get divorced first" she reminded him with a laugh.

"But if you could?" he asked and when she nodded in agreement he continued "you'll marry me the day your divorce is final?"

"The day after. I don't want anyone to say I'm rushing in to marriage with you." she joked.

"Rushing in to things? We could have made a baby just now, and what did I tell you back in the studio that day? There is nothing rushed about us, we have been dancing around what we feel for each other for 7 longs years." He said in a rush, defending his rush to marry.

"The very definition of the "slow burn" you said. That stuck with me." she told him.

"Good! So we fly to the Dominican Republic tomorrow, kill two birds with one stone. We get your divorce and the day after you marry me." he planned.

Elizabeth sat bolt upright and grabbed his shoulders "Kill two birds with one stone. Jason MY GOD are you serious?" she asked incredulously.

"Very" he told her, taking the opportunity to plant a swift kiss on her lips..

"God how romantic! Two birds with one stone!" she exclaimed.

"Don't try and distract me Elizabeth. It will be very romantic" he warned.

"We can't" Elizabeth told him, although she really really wanted to.

"We can" he stated.

"Jason we can't" she replied weakly.

"Why not?" he questioned with his sexiest smile focused on her.

She thought momentarily "Well maybe we can. But I thought Cameron and I were moving in here tomorrow?" she told him.

Jason looked stunned for a moment. Then smiled at the thought. "Oh Yeah that's right you are. We'll talk to Dianne and do it the day after" he decided

"Yes we'll talk to Dianne" she agreed smiling at Jason's gaze wandering over her naked body.

He moved forward pushing her back down on the bed and laid his body over hers and kissed lightly at her lips.

"Since you are in such a "yes" mood. Let's make love again" he told her sexily.

"Again? Already?" she feigned surprise as her hands smoothed down over his back to knead his firm buttocks.

"I have seven years to make up for" he explained as he fondled her breast.

"Not in one night I hope." she countered already wet and ready for him.

"I'm going to try" he chuckled against her lips..

Elizabeth collapsed in giggles that turned to sighs and gasps of pleasure as Jason used hands and lips to arouse her.

********************************************************************************

Elizabeth stirred with delicious feeling of love and warmth. Immediately she felt Jason's lips brush her shoulder. She sighed in contentment and snuggled closer to Jason's naked warmth.

"Good Morning." he whispered his lips brushing her ear.

"mmmm..Morning" she snuggled even closer to him.

"You okay?" he asked.

"Perfect. You?" she smiled as she glanced at him over her shoulder.

"Perfect would describe it" he smiled with satisfaction. He tightened his arms around her and brushed another kiss to her shoulder.

"I can't remember the last time I slept so well" she told him on a sigh.

"You did sleep soundly." he agreed.

Elizabeth turned slightly to look at him, he flashed her a brilliant smile his eyes liquid blue, making her gasp.

"What did you do? Watch me sleep."

"Yeah mostly, and fought a battle with myself about waking you up to make love." he flirted.

"A battle you lost twice." she reminded him with a quirk of an eyebrow.

"What can I say Elizabeth?" he confessed on a sigh "I can't keep my hands off you, and when you snuggle up to me in your sleep it makes it difficult for me to not want to wake you up, and if you touch me or kiss me in your sleep, well sorry but all bets are off." he warned.

Elizabeth giggled "I did not do that." she denied.

"You did. I don't lie remember. I should feel guilty about disturbing your sleep, but I don't." he admitted wiggling his eyebrows at her.

"NEVER feel sorry about waking me up to make love Jason. You do it so well I wouldn't want you or I to miss out." she confessed with love.

Jason chuckled and suddenly was serious. "Elizabeth how does your head feel?"

"A little sore, how's your shoulder?" she asked.

"It's good." he assured her. He leaned over her to capture her lips in a tender kiss. "Let me look at it." he asked.

"Babe I'm alright honestly" she assured him

"Nikolas said it was bad and he could have knocked you out." he reminded her.

"I'm fine. But I'd kill for a cup of coffee. We need to make plans for today." she confessed.

Jason jumped up out of bed and grabbed his sweatpants giving Elizabeth a glorious view.

He turned to catch her eyes watching him and smiled "You stay there and rest some more. I'll make you coffee and breakfast in bed and then we'll take a shower and I can get a good look at your head"

"Sounds like a plan. Remember Cam and I are moving in today." she smiled.

Jason stopped in his trek towards the door and spun around, a smile of pure happiness at her reminder. "You're really moving in with Cam?" he asked.

"I said I was didn't I?" she teased.

Jason nodded and headed towards the door, the smile on his face doing all kinds of things to her equilibrium, and she just caught him muttering "You did and can't be soon enough for me."

"Jason ?" she said his name softly.

"I'll come with you. I don't want you packing and lifting heavy boxes on your own" he continued making plans.

"Jason?" she repeated softly.

"Or better still, just pick up Cam and we'll buy all new stuff. You can leave all that stuff at Audrey's"

"JASON!" she said a lot louder this time.

"Yes?" he looked at her questioningly.

"Grams isn't going to talk me out of moving in here or anything else. She won't be happy but she will just have to deal." she assured him cutting through his unspoken concern immediately.

"I just hate the idea of you fighting with her so that we can be together." he looked at her with concern.

"I can deal with Grams, you're the one who is going to be dealing with Carly" she countered.

Jason grimaced and then headed downstairs to make coffee and breakfast for Elizabeth. He decided as he went that it would need to be something substantial, packing and moving was a big enough deal, but dealing with Audrey and Carly was a whole other BIG deal. Jason realized that not everyone in Port Charles would be as happy as they were about their relationship. There were a lot of people who they needed to deal with and he knew some of them at least were going to be tough on Elizabeth.
