Jason sat on his bike and looked up to the window to see Liz wave down at him. But she wasn't there; her light was on still. Jason got a little worried. Why wasn't she at the window?
Liz tried to scream but Ric covered her mouth, "Shhh.." he kept saying that as he held her up against the wall. She tried to push him off but he was too strong, she had no idea what he was going to do to her. She began getting really scared, she freed her hand from her side and reached to the light switch flicking it on and off for a few seconds hoping someone would notice. Ric grabbed her arm away from the switch and threw her onto the floor. He got on top of her and pinned her down, "Why can't you love me Elizabeth, why?" He grabbed her throat and began to strangle her, "Elizabeth..I love you..why can't you love ME" Elizabeth tried to pry Ric's hands away but failed. She began to think this was it, she was going to die.
Just then her door flew open and there was Jason, he immediately grabbed Ric and threw him across the room into a table. Jason bent down to Liz to see if she was all right as she began to gasp for breath. Ric got up and steadied himself and his eyes focussed on Jason. He began to run at Jason yelling, "Get away from my wife!!!!" Jason looked up and Ric and pushed him down onto the ground. Ric now had Jason pinned down and took a swing at him but missed. Elizabeth held her head, which was bleeding as she pulled Ric off of Jason. Jason was able to get up and as Ric turned around to face him Jason punched Ric, Ric fell to the floor unconscious.
Liz looked down at Ric, "Is he..ok? I mean he isn't dead is he?"
Jason shook his head looking down at Ric, "No yet..but what about you, are you OK?"
Liz nodded, "I'm fine"
"No you're not, there's a gash on your head, lets get that bandaged up."
Liz nodded, "Ok, there is a kit in the closet over there."
Jason walked over to the back closet and opened it up, he immediately saw the white box on the shelf, but his eye then caught something else, his old leather jacket. The one he gave Elizabeth so long ago. He smiled when he thought about it. He missed those days strangely enough. He shook the thoughts and grabbed the box and walked back to Liz who was sitting up on the table now.
"I always kept a kit in the studio incase you came in all banged up, never thought I'd have to use it on myself in here, this was the safest place for me until tonight."
Jason gently cleaned the wound, "Why did you let him in?" he asked.
"I didn't, he was hiding in the closet."
Jason just shook his head.
"How'd you know Ric was here?" Liz asked.
"Well, first you didn't come to the window when I revved up, second I saw the lights go on and off, and threw the door I heard Ric."
Liz nodded, "Well thank you Jason, I thought...well.I thought he was going to kill me."
Jason secured the bandage on. "I'm always here for you Elizabeth, you know that."
Liz nodded, then Ric began to move, she looked back to Jason, "What do we do now?" Jason stood over Ric thinking. Then he went to the closet and took out a suitcase, "Pack some clothes," he said setting the suitcase in her couch. Liz nodded as she began to pack while Jason kept standing over Ric incase he got up. Liz closed the suitcase when she finished, "Ok Jason" Jason looked to Liz and grabbed her hand, they made eye contact, "Lets go" Jason said as he led Elizabeth out of the studio with Ric still lying there.
----------------------------------------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------------------------------
The apartment was dark as Jason and Liz quietly entered. Jason turned the lights on which revealed Courtney sleeping on the couch, "I hope she wasn't up long" Jason said. Elizabeth had forgotten about Courtney. Maybe staying with Jason wasn't such a great idea. Jason gently picked up Courtney, "I'm going to take her upstairs," he whispered, "I'll be right back." He slowly carried her upstairs as Elizabeth set her suitcase down and sat on the couch, still warm from Courtney. She really hoped Courtney wouldn't mind, at least for Jason's sake. Yet another part of her did. She wanted Courtney to feel how she did when Jason was helping Courtney out. Jason came back down the stairs with some blankets and a pillow, "Here you go," he said handing them to her. She thanked him as she took them. "If you need anything Elizabeth, you know where everything is so you are welcome to it."
Liz nodded smiling, "Thank you for everything Jason, but are you sure Courtney will be ok with this?"
Jason sighed, "I'm not sure, but just get some sleep OK?"
Liz nodded, "Goodnight Jason" she said.
Jason began walking up the stairs and turned around, "Goodnight Elizabeth."
----------------------------------------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------------------------------------
Courtney woke up around 11 am, Jason was sleeping beside her. She smiled as she gently touched him. He must have had a long night last night, she figured he was doing work for Sonny. She heard her stomach growl, Jason never did come back with any food. Good thing Courtney went out the other day to get some breakfast, there must be some leftovers. She got out of bed and changed out of yesterday's clothes into a robe. She quickly brushed her hair and teeth and went down stairs. She glanced at the couch as she went into the kitchen not thinking much about it, but once she did she realized someone was sleeping on the couch.. She walked back into the living room and to the couch. She leaned over it and realized it was Elizabeth who was still fast asleep. Courtney gasped and marched upstairs into the bedroom. She jumped onto the bed and shook Jason to wake him up. "Jason.Jason wake up"
Jason turned around sleepily, "What? What is it?"
Courtney looked very sternly at Jason, "What is Elizabeth doing sleeping on OUR couch??!!"
Jason rubbed his eyes, "Oh..ummm.why don't we get dressed first and we'll discuss this." Courtney pouted as she hopped off the bed and went to get dressed.
----------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------------
Meanwhile there was a knock at the door that woke Elizabeth up, she waited a while for either Courtney or Jason to answer it. Neither Jason nor Courtney were coming down the stairs. So Elizabeth dragged her self up in her pink silk PJ's and went to the door opening it with out even looking through the peephole. Carly was standing there smiling until she saw Elizabeth. "What are YOU doing here?" Carly rudely asked.
Elizabeth yawned and turned around, "I don't need this right now Carly."
Carly shut the door behind her as she followed Elizabeth to the couch. "Where are Jason and Courtney?"
Liz lay back down on the couch, "Probably still sleeping, like I should be doing."
"So they know you are here?"
Liz yawned again, "Jason does."
Carly crossed her arms, "I see what this is, this is part of some sort of plan to win back Jason, well let me tell you sweetie, it's not going to work. Jason and Courtney love each other, nothing can tear away at that love."
Elizabeth sat up, "Carly, there is no plan. Ric nearly killed me last night and Jason was there to help me. He's letting me stay here for a while," Carly opened her mouth to say something but Elizabeth continued as she stood up, "I know what you are going to say Carly, that Ric beating me last night was all part of my plan. But it's not true Carly. If I wanted to win back Jason I have much better ways of doing that that don't involve my life being at risk by some psychopath like Ric Lansing." Jason stood at the top of the stairs as Elizabeth went on, " If Jason loves Courtney then he loves her, if he loves me then a he loves me. You can't change that Carly, no one can but Jason."
Carly stood there silent.
Jason made his entrance. "What's up Carly?" Jason asked seriously.
Carly looked at Elizabeth, "I was just asking Elizabeth why she was here."
Jason nodded, "Ok, but why are YOU here?"
Carly looked at Courtney was coming down the stairs, "Me and Courtney are going shopping."
Courtney was now at Jason's side, "Yeah, as soon as I find out what Elizabeth is doing here."
Carly took Courtney's hand, "I know why, I'll tell you on the way."
Courtney looked to Jason worried, then back to Carly. She whispered, even though everyone in the room heard, to Carly, "Is it Ok to leave him alone.with her?" Elizabeth rolled her eyes.
Carly nodded, "It's Ok Courtney."
Courtney turned to Jason, "Goodbye sweetie," she said, the she passionately kissed him and then looked at Elizabeth smiling, "Goo-d-b- bye" Jason stuttered out. Elizabeth rolled her eyes as she laughed inside, 'What a bunch of insecure women' she thought to herself.
Carly opened the door and turned back to Elizabeth, "I'm truly sorry if..and I stress the word if.Ric hurt you last night."
Elizabeth sarcastically smiled, "and I truly thank you Carly if...and I stress the word if.you mean it."
Carly rolled her eyes, "Funny Elizabeth, real funny" and with that Courtney and Carly left.
Elizabeth and Jason sat on the couch, Jason shook his head, "I'm sorry about them,"
Elizabeth nodded, "You don't have to explain, I know."
Jason smiled, "You always did know, you understood me like no one else, did you know that?"
Elizabeth nodded, "I did, well, up until the end, at the time I didn't understand why you lied to me about Sonny's death, but now I do."
Jason leaned back, "Courtney isn't like you in that way, she doesn't understand a lot of the things I do"
Elizabeth sighed, she couldn't believe she was about to say this but she did, 'Give her time Jason, she'll come around. She has to, she loves you."
Jason gazed down and said out loud, "But do I love her?"
Elizabeth was stunned, "What?"
Jason sighed, "Yesterday I did, at least I thought I did, but when I think about it, I never cared for her the way I cared for Robin..or you."
Elizabeth blushed a little, "What are you saying Jason?"
Jason shrugged and got up, "I don't know, nevermind." Jason couldn't believe what he just told Elizabeth, but I was the truth.
Elizabeth didn't want to push Jason to admitting what he felt, so she just sat there in silence.
There's not much of a cliffhanger here, but next chapter a lot is going to happen I assure you. I'm trying to leave as much of the mob out of this as possible, Ric is going to be the main enemy. At first I was going to have Ric rape Elizabeth, but you all wanted Jason to save Lizzie, so he did and there was no rape. I hope you all enjoyed this chapter. If you don't want to know anything about what will happen nest do not read the nest paragraph.
I'm going to try to get a Elizabeth/Carly relationship going soon. Elizabeth will also interact with Sonny soon. And Courtney is going to do something that will anger a lot of people. And Ric will go to extremes to get what he wants.
