4 In The Middle Of The Night

Chapter 2



He arrived in Port Charles at exactly 3:15 am, removing his gloves he stood out side of General Hospital. Not many cars were in the Emergency room parking lot, but he spotted Bobbie's and Luke's. He sighed and leaned against the brick building, he wasn't ready to face what was inside, but he knew that the faster he went to see her the better. Closing his eyes, the night air chilled his body, or maybe it was fear that chilled him. He ran a hand through his hair and prepared himself for the dead body of a close friend and the dying body of his lost love.

"Jason? Is that you?" Bobbie said in amazement. Jason's eyes burned with fatigue and his hands were sweaty, "Hi," was all he said to those gathered at the hospital. Instantly he wondered where Lucky was and why he wasn't there. Jason paused and then said, "Is she in there?," he pointed to the room directly in front of him. "Yes, she's not awake though, and Sarah and Audrey are with her," Bobbie replied softly. Jason eyes narrowed for a second, "I'll wait then, so they can be with her." He went and sat heavily in a chair nearby, he looked exhausted in every sense of the word. Sonny had gone home around 2am because he had things to do for Carly's funeral in the morning however Zander relocated himself outside of Liz's room as well. Zander looked at Jason slightly suspiciously, and Jason returned the look with about as much disdain. Jason ran a hand through his hair nervously, he didn't want to be here, he wanted to be with her.

Jason was coming in out of consciousness around 4 am and suddenly he saw Sarah and Audrey leave Elizabeth's room, they looked at him as the left, but their faces only displayed painful emotions. Jason stepped carefully into her room, she looked pale, and fragile, like she would break if he touched her. He sat in the chair by her bed, she was so beautiful and sad, he thought to himself. He touched her face, she was clammy and he quickly pulled his hand away as if it burned to touch her. She didn't move, not once, the only sign she was alive was the rise and fall of her chest. Jason leaned on the edge of the bed with his head in his hands, for a second he thought he might start to cry, cry like hadn't since he was a small child. Composure took back over and he watched her until he fell asleep.

"Jason?" Jason opened his eyes and Elizabeth was staring at him. It was early morning. Her eyes were hardly open and they looked slightly red, her voice was whispy like death talking from the grave. He smiled at her, "Hey you," however she did not return his smile, "Leave me alone, all of you!" He didn't realized Sarah and Audrey were also in the room, he turned to look at them, feeling slightly embarrassed. "Elizabeth please," Sarah started, "Shut up, I want to die, all you go away," she said again this time finder a louder voice. Jason put his hand on hers, "Come on, your just feeling scared, things will be fine." Elizabeth looked at him and for a second he thought he saw hatred in her eyes, "LEAVE!," she tried to yell but it broke into a sob. Suddenly she was ripping the iv tube from her arm and pulling herself out of bed. "Elizabeth, NO!!" Jason said holding her down, she ripped herself free from him, "Don't touch me," she spit out. "Why didn't I die, Why?" she started crying and fell back on the bed.

Jason looked horrified, he had never thought she really wanted to die and when she awoke would be pissed that she hadn't. "Grams go get a doctor," Sarah said urgently and Audrey ran out of the room. At this point Elizabeth was crying inconsolably into her pillow and completely ignoring the two of them. Sarah noticed Jason's obvious distress and she tried to smile at him reassuringly. Jason reached out to touch Elizabeth but he pulled his hand away before he did, "Why isn't Lucky here," he asked Sarah quietly. Sarah seemed to cringe at that, "It's complicated he wants to be here but," Suddenly Elizabeth turned around weakly and spat out, "Lucky can eat shit and die for all I care!" She tried to sit up and then grabbed her stomach in pain, "Oh it hurts," she moaned. Jason reached for her again and she slapped his hand away and then she just passed out. Sarah ran to bed, "Lizzie?!!?" she shook her lightly, "Oh my god, where's the doctor?!!" Jason backed up against the wall frantically trying to process all that happened, his hands were shaking in fear. When the doctor stormed in with Audrey he almost ran out of the room, gasping for breath in the hallway, he felt himself losing it. And when he saw Monica in the hall he practically threw himself into her arms and he cried, he cried for Carly, Elizabeth, and himself. She held her son like she hadn't in 15 years.
