AN: Okay this is my third fic of GH. Brenda thought she had it all until one night Jason gets drunk and gets violent with her and leaves a couple of bruises. R and R. Brenda/Jason Romance.

You always hurt the ones you love.

Brenda waited on the couch she checked the watch 3:30 a.m. she had a concerned look on her face. It had been two hours since Jason left the penthouse he always left after they had fights just to cool down but he had never been gone this long . She wore her light blue night gown and she tried to call him again but hung up when she heard the door open she turned around and she saw Jason standing in the door way she headed towards him.

Brenda: Jason look I'm sorr..

She stopped within three feet of him she could smell the liquor from them he reeked of it. She looked disapointed they had this talk before she didn't want him to end up like A.J. He tried to walk upstairs but fell down she kneeled down.

Brenda: You've been drinking haven't you?

Jason: So what if I was its not you problem.

Brenda: Ugh. I'm your wife and I love you so I think I will make it my problem.

Jason: How noble of you.

She looked at him she tried to help him up but he slightly pushed her out of the way so he wouldn't hurt her. She looked at him in disgust he had never pushed her the last time he pushed her was when they hated each other and that was over four months ago.

Brenda: Look Jason I will put up with a lot but don't you ever get violent with me!

* Outside the penthouse *

Carly was headed to see Brenda and ask her what the noise was about they had become pretty close the last four months all of a sudden she heard them fighting. * Oh god * she thought she knew what would happen they would fight and then in forty minutes they would be kissing and be fine. She listened to their fight through the door. Brenda looked at him she was pissed and he knew it.

Jason: Don't get violent with you! When have I ever hurt you?

Brenda: Never but please just come down and we can sober you up.

Jason: I'm fine I'm going to bed.

Brenda: No you aren't not like this!

Jason tried to get out of her grasp he swung his arms and yelled at her to let him go when all of a sudden his hand made contact with her face. She lost balance on the steps she fell down and broke a vase at the bottom of the steps. Carly ran in and looked at the scene she saw in horror she kneeled down by Brenda she looked up at Jason.

Carly: What the hell did you do?

Jason: My god, I didn't mean to.

Carly: The hell's wrong with you?! You abusive asshole!

Jason: Carly it was an accident.

Carly looked at Brenda as Jason walked down the steps her face was black and blue where he hit her she also twisted her ankle. Carly helped her up and Brenda just looked at Jason in disbelief he looked at her in disgust with what he had done.

Carly: Yes this looks like an accident!

Brenda: Carly, don't.

Carly: What?! He just hit you Brenda!

Brenda: It was an accident.

Carly: No it wasn't look at yourself.

Brenda: Carly god damn it go home!

Carly looked at her then at Jason knowing she couldn't do anything she went back to her penthouse. Jason helped Brenda up. He carried her to the bed and got an ice pack and an ankle brace. She looked at him as he touched her swollen eye she winced in pain. He then put the ice pack on her eye as soft as he could. Jason then applied the ankle brace.

Jason: Baby I'm sorry.

Brenda: I know you are. I love you.

Jason: I love you too and I promise I won't drink ever again at least not as much.

Brenda: I can live with that.

She pulled him into a kiss they stayed that way for about five minutes the kiss had passion, love, and fire to it. They spent the rest of the night just holding each other and they both fell asleep.
