The limo pulled up to the PC Grill, the back door opened up as Tyler opened
the door, helping Stacy out of the limo. Putting his arm around her back he
looked around the place as they walked in. He did have to admit it was a
nice place and considering Stacy hadn't eaten anything since her and Johnny
had left the island. Looking behind them he saw Johnny following behind
them, his face stern and unreadable. Turing his attention back to Stacy he
helped her over to their table, pulling out the chair for her, after she
sat down he seated himself and looked at the menu, it was a nice
restaurant, no denying it but the prices seemed a little steep.
She could read that look on his face, he had it sometimes when they would go out to a nice place for dinner and he'd look right away at the prices. Shaking her head she pulled his menu down from his face and smiled at him.
"Don't worry it's on me, and the new credit card daddy got for me." It still surprised her, the night after Jason had gotten shot, Sonny gave her 4 credit cards, all in her name, only it didn't read 'Stacy Taglaiti' they read 'Stacy Corinthos', she still had to get used to signing things, 'Stacy Corinthos' instead of Taglaiti like she had done practically all of her life.
Everything on the menu looked really good to her, especially since the baby's cravings started, it had started to weird Johnny out while they were on the island when they would go out to dinner, but it grossed her out even more that she couldn't stop from wanting certain foods mixed together.
Walking into the restaurant Jason looked around, finally laying eyes on Stacy and Tyler sitting at a table across from each other, he tried to push his anger and jealously behind him, taking a seat at the bar not taking his eyes off of them.
Back at the table, the waiter had just left from taking their orders, Tyler ordering a chicken teriyaki and pineapple meal, after finally making up her mind Stacy ordered the steak, well done, with some ranch dressing on the side and a salad with fish in it. She didn't know why but this is exactly what she felt like eating, she couldn't believe it, steak with ranch dressing? She didn't know weather to just eat it and not think about the stuff or puke.
"So Stacy, tell me about the lucky guy you're with" there it was an ice breaker, and he could find out if there would be a place in her heart ever for him again or if he had lost his chance when he moved away.
"I'm not with anyone right now." Saying that made it more official to her, her and Jason were no more, they barely ever talked, if he even cared about her at all then he would have been down there to the island to see her those two months she spent down there, but no she heard stories that he had started talking to that little twerp Eliz-a-bitch again, she knew then that there was no chance again for her and Jason, if he was with his ex again then obviously everything he said in the hospital was true.
"If you don't mind me asking, who's the father of the little one you're carrying right now?" Even though she may have been pregnant, he still felt nothing but love for her, deep in his heart he didn't think he'd ever stop loving her and carrying about her, the only way that he knew that he'd probably ever stop is if she was married and truly happy with that person and right now he could tell she was upset, and obviously the man that got her pregnant wasn't even around to help her out.
"Tyler, we've been friends since we were about 6 right?"
"Yep, and you were HOT for a 6 year old"
Smiling for the first time in almost a few weeks she continued on, "Well you remember the guy we saw before we left for the restaurant?"
"You're bodyguard that drove us?"
"No, that's Johnny and he's not actually my bodyguard but he went with me to the island for those two months, no the guy that got off the elevator?"
"The One that called you Miss Corinthos?" He took it as a yes when Stacy looked down at the table, staring ahead he saw the man sitting at the bar looking at them, his eyes cold full of nothing, nursing a beer. Turing his attention back to Stacy he pulled her face up towards his and smiled at her.
"Tell me everything Stace, I'm your best friend, you know I give the best advice around." He had to know why this guy wasn't involving himself in Stacy's life, if this guy was bad news then he'd protect her, but he had to know the whole story first.
"It's a long story Ty. . ."
"Hey, you're the one that ordered the steak so it's going to be awhile before our foods out, besides for my girl I've got all the time in the world."
"You remember that email I sent you about that guy that saved me from getting mugged? Well that was him; after Sammy and I had that fight I started stripping to make money. . .one night I ended up on the docks and he was there, he flirted with me and walked me back to my apartment. . .that night was the first night we made love. I guess he had a feeling that I was Sonny's kid because the next day he took me to the penthouse. . . that night Connor, my boss at the club, kidnapped me and. . .forced me to have sex with him for about 4 weeks straight. . . he sold me to other guys and would hit me if I tried to refuse. . . One night I ran away from him and I ended up on the docks again, and Jason was there. He took me to his penthouse and I passed out. . .the next thing I remember I was in the hospital and Sonny told me that I was pregnant and that I was his daughter. Jason came in and I tried pushing him away but he just kept fighting me. He took a bullet for me ya know? Sammy has a hit out on me, or he did at least, and Jason took the bullet for me, but when he woke up in the hospital he was saying all these awful things to me."
"Like what?" Reaching out, he caressed her hand, he could tell saying all this to him was tough on her, but he knew that if she didn't say it all it would eat her up inside.
"Like that he didn't think that the baby was his and that I probably slept around with other guys, that I was a slut. . .stuff like that. After that I left for the island, and I guess the rest you already know about."
Thinking for a few minutes Tyler looked back behind them at the man he now knew as Jason, his eyes were still fixed on them, the coldness still in his eyes. Turing his attention back again to Stacy he smiled at her, he knew the whole story now and knew the reason behind Jason's actions.
"Maybe the reason why Jason pushed you away was to protect you. Stacy listen to me okay? It's obvious if this guy took a bullet for you that he loves you! He probably thought that pushing you away would protect you, but he probably never knew how much it would hurt you."
She couldn't believe it, for the first time in a very long time something Tyler actually said made sense, maybe that's why Jason pushed her away, but it still didn't make sense about the whole Elizabeth thing. Wiping her face she looked around the room taking in a deep breath. Reaching down she picked up her menu and began fanning herself off, suddenly the room got awfully hot. Noticing her actions Tyler looked at her curiously.
"Stace are you okay?"
"Yeah I'm fine I just need to use the restroom, excuse me." Standing up she took about two steps before grabbing onto the table, the room spinning around her. Jason's heart started to panic; he rushed past the people who started to get up. Tyler reaching out to her, holding her by the arm, looking into her eyes.
"Stacy what's wrong?!"
"It's hard. . .to. . .breathe. . ." gasping out for air one last time, she collapsed into Tyler's arms. Panic started to set in as both Jason and Johnny rushed over to her side, Jason picking her up in his arms, looking down to Tyler and Johnny.
"We need to get her to the hospital NOW!"
