Chapter 3

Early the next morning, Gia stretched and groaned as she woke up.  She smiled as she remembered the wonderful dream she had last night.  She had dreamed that she was snowbound with Jason Morgan.  She also dreamed that she had slept with Jason.

She smiled again and rolled over on her side.  Her arm hit something on the bed next to her.  She opened her eyes and gasped.  There was Jason lying next to her.  Gia looked under the blankets and realized that she wasn't wearing anything.  It hadn't been a dream.  She really had let Jason make love to her.

Jason opened his eyes and stared at her.  "Good morning," he said leaning over to kiss her.

"Good… good morning," she whispered.  Gia wasn't sure what to say to him.  She wasn't even sure what she felt.  She still loved Nikolas, but these feelings she was having for Jason seemed so much stronger.  "Um… would you like some breakfast?"

"Sure," he said with a smile.

Gia got out of bed wrapping the top blanket around her.  She gathered up her clothes and went into the bathroom to dress.  A few minutes later she came back out and saw that Jason had gotten dressed while she was in the bathroom.

She looked in the bags that Jason had brought back from the store.  "So would you like soup, soup or soup?"

Jason laughed.  "I guess I should have gotten more than just soup."

Jason's joke broke the tension in the room.  Gia laughed.  She pulled a can of soup out of the bag and threw it to him.  He opened the can and carried it back to her.

"Thank you," she said taking it from him.

Jason stood behind her as she poured it into the pan.  He put his arm around her waist and kissed the back of her neck.  Gia set the pan on the stove and turned to face him.  He leaned towards her and claimed her lips with his.  Gia kissed him back for a moment before pulling away.

"No," she said turning back to the stove.

Jason looked at her with concern.  "Gia?  What's the matter?  Did I do something wrong?"

"Oh Jason, you didn't do anything wrong.  It's me.  Everything is happening too fast.  I'm just so confused by what I'm feeling."

"So are you saying that after this storm is over that you don't want to see me anymore?"

"No!  That's not what I'm saying.  I do want to continue seeing you after we get out of here, but could we take it a little… well a little slower?" she asked.

"Of course," he said kissing her gently on the cheek.  "Anything you want.  Now that I found you, I don't want to loose you.
