A/N: First I want to apologize for the delay in getting this posted. With my vacation and starting school, I haven't had the time to work on my fic. I want to thank you guys for all of the reviews that I got! I'd also like to personally thank Morgan3 for the birthday wishes! It meant a lot to me!
~~~~~~~~~~Morgan pent house
…After Jason shut the pent house door Courtney was left sitting on the couch, in a state of undress. Oh well. At least I'll have a chance to go buy a pregnancy test and clear up my doubts about being pregnant. Then maybe I won't have to tell Jason anything. Or at least she hoped.
Courtney picked up her blouse from the floor and began to button it up again. Once she was fully clad, she grabbed her purse and left the pent house, determined to get a pregnancy test.

After Sonny had called Jason he sat down on his black leather couch and waited. A few seconds later Jason came through the door.
"What is it that you wanted?" Jason asked, a little peeved that Sonny had ruined a perfect moment between him and Courtney.
"It's time to go get Carly back." Sonny stated with a grin.
"Now? I thought that we were going to wait until Alcazar took her to his compound."
"We were, but there has been a change of plans. Remember when I negotiated a visit with Carly on the yacht?" When Jason nodded Sonny continued. "Well, I planted a tracking device so that we could keep tabs on where the yacht was heading, so if Alcazar decided not to take her to his compound and took her some where else, we would know."
"Okay, so has Alcazar taken her somewhere else then?" Jason asked.
"Not yet, but we're not going to give him a chance to. I've been checking the coordinates of the yacht for the past few weeks and mapping out the route that he's been taking, and I've noticed that there is a pattern. He sails for three days and then he stops the yacht for two."
Jason's face lit up at this, "Has the yacht stopped yet?"
"Yeah, it stopped sailing this morning and If I'm right about the pattern, it should stay there at least until tomorrow. That should give us enough time to get Carly and get out before Alcazar even knows." Sonny smiled at the thought of getting Carly back and making Alcazar feel like a fool at the same time.
Jason was nodding his head. "This could work, all we need is a diversion for Alcazar. We need to have him off of the yacht and occupied when we make our move. Do you think that you can convince Faith to make another deal with Alcazar tonight?"
"Yeah, that should be easy. As long as we still have Ric locked up in the safe house, Faith is like putty in our hands. She would do anything to guarantee Ric's safety, God only knows why." Sonny said with disgust in his voice at the thought of his half-brother.
"As long as we can get Carly back, I won't hurt Ric, but I'm not making any long term promises. Once Carly's back I don't guarantee anything." Jason said and Sonny knew that he meant every word of it.
~~~~~~~~~~~local drug store
Courtney walked into the drug store in a rush. She wanted to get a pregnancy test and leave as soon as possible.
Much to Courtney's dismay, as soon as she walked in through the doors of the store, she ran into her ex-husband, AJ. She wasn't in the mood to talk to him and was just going to pretend that she didn't see him and walk right past him.
She thought that she had made it past him undetected until he turned around and said, "Hey, Courtney."
"Oh, hey, AJ." Courtney said with forced enthusiasm. "I didn't see you standing there." Just the thought of AJ made Courtney sick to her stomach and she tried to think of a way to ditch AJ without being mean to him.
"So how have you been now that you're sleeping with my brother?" AJ said with an evil smirk on his face.
That comment made Courtney's blood boil and she just wanted to get away from him. "As much as I'd love to talk to you right now, I'm in a hurry, so just leave me alone, okay?"
With that Courtney made her way to the opposite side of the store and stayed there until she saw AJ leave. God, I hate AJ.
Once AJ left, she walked up and down the aisles until she finally found a shelf full of pregnancy tests. Looking around her to make sure that nobody else that she knew was there, Courtney quickly grabbed an EPT test and bolted to the check-out line.

Sonny and Jason sat on the sofa and were discussing some of the final details of their plan to save Carly, when Faith walked in the door.
"It's about time you got here, Faith. What took you so long?" Sonny growled.
"Yeah, I was beginning to think that you didn't care about Ric's safety anymore." Jason added.
"Hey, hey, now. I'm here aren't I?" Faith answered. "So, what is it that you want me to do this time?"
"I want you to make another deal with Alcazar for tonight, and I want him to be there in person for the delivery of his product." Sonny told her.
"Why does he need to be there in person?" Faith asked.
"That's none of your business Faith!" Sonny yelled. "All you need to do is make sure that Alcazar meets up with you on the docks tonight, and Ric will live to see another day."
"Okay, okay. You don't need to yell at me!" Faith whined as she left Sonny and Jason alone in the pent house.
Sonny just smiled at Jason, "The plan is going to work! We are going to have Carly back by tonight! Now go home and I'll call you when it's time to put the plan into action."
~~~~~~~~~~Morgan pent house
Courtney had managed to get home without running into anyone else that she knew and was glad because she wanted to take the pregnancy test before Jason came home.
She took the pregnancy test into the bathroom and was about to take it when she heard Jason's voice in the pent house.
"Courtney, are you here?" Jason yelled.
"Um, yeah, I'm in the bathroom. I'll be out in a sec." she called out to him.
Courtney decided that she would take the test later, so she threw it in the cabinet under the sink, flushed the toilet, and came out of the bathroom. She noticed that Jason was smiling and she couldn't help but smile too.
"I have really good news for you." Jason said as he smiled.
"Really? What is it?" Courtney asked with a hint of curiosity in her voice.
"Sonny and I are going to get Carly back tonight!" he told her.
Courtney's face lit up with joy. "Oh, Jason really? This is great! I can't wait until Carly is back home where she belongs! We can finally get married and start our life together! Oh, I am so happy!" she said as she threw herself into Jason's arms.
Jason couldn't help but smile even bigger, "I knew that you would be happy!"
Jason lifted her up and carried her over to the couch and thought that he could pick up where he left off, as he planted a soft kiss on Courtney's lips. Their kisses became more and more passionate as time passed and Jason thought that they should continue this upstairs on the bed.
Jason picked Courtney up and held her in his arms. "I say we take this upstairs," he said with a grin.
"I'd have to agree with you on that one," she answered in a seductive voice.
Jason laid Courtney on the bed and proceeded in undressing her. She was laying there in nothing but her bra and underwear when they both heard an annoying little sound coming from the pocket in Jason's leather jacket. Jason told Courtney that he would be back in a second and he went to answer his cell phone.
A few minutes later Jason returned to the bedroom with an apologetic look on his face. "I know this isn't a good time to leave, but I have to go now."
"Are you going to go get Carly now?"
Jason nodded his head, "Yeah"
"Well, this can wait until Carly is back," she told him.
"I'll hold you to that," he answered with a smile.
"You better," she said as she stood up to give Jason a kiss before he left.
After Jason had left for the second time that day, Courtney went into the bathroom to take the pregnancy test that she had bought. She took the test and decided that she would go get dressed while she waited the required three minutes for the results to show up on the indicator.
After Courtney was fully dressed she went back into the bathroom. She picked up the indicator from the sink and it said…
