Written By Stef With a F



"Karen, What's wrong?" asked Jason Q, "want to talk about it?"

"I don't know, maybe", answered Karen.

"Well Karen, I'm going to the Recovering Room to talk to Robin, why don't you join us?" asked Jason.

"What are you talking about Jason?" started Karen. "You are not leaving this room -- You almost died!"

"Oh Karen, you know you can't keep me here".

"Please Jason, I can't lose you too!"

"Karen?!? Come to the Recovery Room with me. Play worrywart doctor is you like. If I turn white as a ghost, you have my permission to rush me back here. Please Karen? Robin is waiting".

"Okay", Karen finally relented, "but I will hold you to that one promise. You get any whiter that you are right now, and of to the hospital you will go".

"Okay", answered Jason.

"And…well, let's go!" returned Karen.

Karen got Jason a wheel chair, and rolled him to the lobby. She filled out all the necessary paper work and gave them to Jason for him to sign. She informed Jason that even though, it was his right to leave if he such chooses it will be filed as "AMA", against medical advice.

After getting permission to leave herself, Karen and Jason left the hospital together. They then proceeded to "The Recovery Room" across the street. Jason looked around for Robin, who did not yet arrived. So instead Jason and Karen talked about life and old times.

"So, you, and Jagger are divorced now?" Jason asked in a slight frown.

"Yes, Karen answered with small frown herself. She remembered when she thought Jagger and her were going to be one forever.

"Apparently", Karen continued, "He cheated on me with his partner".

"Oh no", said Jason Q, "That's terrible". "People change I guess, if your Jagger was even a tad like the Jagger I knew, he would have never done anything like that. How cruel, but that's life, and you were young back then".

"Yes, young and stupid".

"No, Karen, young, but not stupid. So, I guess, you graduated from Northwestern and Medical school successfully. I start Medical school next year".

"LOL! Yes, that's right. You are younger than me now".

"Yeah, what a thought! So how are you doing now, Dr. Wexler? Any new love that stole your heart?"

"Yeah, there was, is, whatever, a guy named Joe, Joe Scanlon, Dr Scanlon", answered Karen.

"Oh, that's good".

"Yeah", Karen said in an indifferent tune.

Meanwhile, back at the Quartermaine mansion….

"Carly, I am going to stop by to see Jason Quartermaine one more time before I return to the office. I'll be back later tonight", said AJ.

"Okay", answered Carly, "Michael and I are going to see Mama".

"Okay, tell your mom hi for me".

AJ left and headed to the hospital. AJ was thinking to himself, "Wow, just look how wonderful my life has gotten lately! I have a beautiful wife, a beautiful son, and most incredibly then all, a second chance on the brother that I lost. I wonder. Could it get better? Could I be happier?

Just then, AJ saw a familiar figure in the distance.

AJ--waved to the female figure, "Robin?"

Robin stopped right in her tracks.

"AJ?" she said in a quiet tone. "How are you?"

"Good, Robin, better than you could ever imagine! I am so glad that we bumped into each other. I need to thank you", announced AJ.

"Why, what happened?" Robin asked astonished.

"Oh Robin, I am sorry about calling you a hypocrite and mean, and disloyal. I knew you were trying to honor Jason's secret and I know Michael loved and loves Jason a lot, and Jason, Michael. It hurt me greatly for me to think that you went along with Jason's ideal that I wasn't fit to raise my own son that for some reason, you had to protect Michael from me. Then when you told Jason, he treated you so badly. We both did. I'm sorry, Robin, so sorry", explained AJ.

"LOL, Okay, but didn't you say you wanted to Thank me?" mentioned Robin.

"Yes", agreed AJ, "That I did. I need to thank you for a few things. First of all, thanks for all the times you allowed me to see Michael even though Jason had that 10 feet thing on me. I was so happy when you trusted me to take care of Michael when you had to help your friend during the storm, even under the penalty of Jason's wrath. Oh Robin that alone proves that the things that I told you -- no, attacked you with the day you told me about me being Michael's father, were wrong. You did the right thing at the end, and I blasted you for it. I'm sorry!!! And now, I also have you to thank for the opportunity to raise my son and the chance to marry my wife Carly, that I loved since the night Michael was conceived".

"What?!?" started Robin. "What did you say?"

"Carly and I are in love. It's true Robin, I wouldn't believe it myself, if I wasn't involved", AJ said smiling.

"Good, I'm glad, as long as you are happy", returned Robin. "I was hoping, we would have the strength to be friends again", said Robin.

"I trust that in the future…" AJ began.

"Yes, AJ, I understand, "I'm sorry too. I should have told you in the beginning".

The two friends exchanged a friendly glance.

"So, Robin, where were you heading to?" asked AJ.

"The Recovery Room", answered Robin. "Jason called me. Told me that it was important. I'm worried AJ".

"Don't worry. Let me wait with you".

"Sure, thanks AJ".

AJ and Robin enter into the Recovery Room, and look for Jason. Karen walks up to them.

"Robin!" shouted Karen. "Long time, no see!"

"Karen!" returned Robin. "That is very true! I am here waiting for Jason, did you happen to see him?"

"Yeah, he had to step out. He told me to tell you that he forgot to do something this morning, and it has to be done as soon as possible. He also told me that he is very sorry, and will be back as soon as possible. Please seat now, he's back soon. Catch me up girl on your classes!" announced Karen.

"Sure, okay", Robin said. "You staying AJ?"

"No, got to get to ELQ, but good luck Robin", said AJ.

"Thank you", said Robin.

AJ nodded and left.

A Few moments later, at Sonny and Jason's Coffee Place

"Jason!" shouted Jason Quartermaine; "I need to talk to you".

"Jason!" shouted Jason Morgan, "What's the fire?"

"I just heard some information I did not like. Regarding Robin, AJ, and Michael", stated Jason Q.

"What you talking about?" Jason Morgan stated.

"You know. How do you feel about Robin? Do you still love her? I know she still loves you. Are you going to forgive her for doing something she felt was right? Or you going to just stand there, and be all proud, and act like something you wanted to avoid for so long? A Quartermaine?" Jason Quartermaine dared.
