Chapter 7

Courtney ran home after she finished talking to Jason. She hadn't realized how long she had been jogging because she had an hour before her shift at Kelly's and she wanted to take a shower and actually clean the apartment. Debating which to do Courtney decided on a shower. "Hey I rather be clean than have a clean apartment," she said as she walked toward the bathroom, but not without making a pit stop to turn in the radio and make it loud enough to hear in the shower. The Goo Goo Dolls' "Iris" came on the radio and Courtney had a sort of slide show go through her head only it wasn't of her and AJ rather her and Jason. "What are you doing you are Mrs. Quatermaine and you are in love with your husband," she told herself over and over as she got out the shower and ready for work.

Jason headed over to Sonny's after he had gotten off the phone. When he arrived he was welcomed by a noisy Carly. "So did you come by so we could talk like you said last night? Don't tell me you don't know what I'm talking about Jason Morgan. You know that we need to talk about this girl that you're falling for. She better be someone that I can like or else you can't go out with her."

"Carly! Leave Jason alone. You always make something out of nothing. Now why don't you go get Michael and take him Kelly's like you told Bobbie you would. And I called Jase, we have business to discuss. I love you sweetie," Sonny told a now slightly angry Carly as he kissed her on the cheek.

"Jason this conversation isn't over," she said turning to him, "Oh and Sonny all you had to do was tell me it was business and I would have left. You know cause god forbid if I'm in the same penthouse when you talk business."

"Mommy, are you ready to take me to see Grandma" Michael asked as he headed down the stairs and interrupted the conversation downstairs to everyone but, Carly's relief.

"Get your coat and then say bye daddy and Uncle Jason and we'll go okay sweetie," Carly replied.

"Bye daddy!! See ya later uncle Jason" Michael said as they left. Before closing the door Carly gave Jason one last look to let him know that she was going to talk to him later whether he like it or not.

"What was Carly rambling about this Jase?" Sonny asked.

"Well I went riding last night and got back pretty late so I was tried and was dosing off in the elevator. And now she thinks I was out with some girl and wants to know what's going on," Jason said hoping to keep up the same story with both Sonny and Carly. He didn't want to tell Sonny the truth about him being with Courtney because he knew he would ask a lot of questions that Jason couldn't answer.

"I see. Well you know Carly so what can you do. I could try to talk to her about it but what good would that do. You know she doesn't listen. Not to anyone but herself," Sonny giggled, "Well that's not why I called you here. It's about Courtney."

***********

Carly walked into Kelly's with Michael and saw Courtney. "Hey Court!" she said.

"Oh hey Carly how's it going? I haven't seen you round here in awhile. And you brought Michael" Courtney said as she went to give her nephew hug, "Hey buddy. What ya doing here? Want me to get you something to eat?"

"Yeah! I'm hungry can I get what I always get. You know the grill cheese, fries, and cherry coke," Michael replied.

"Sure!! No problem. I'll be back in a second," Courtney told the young redheaded boy. She went the put the order in and came back to talk to Carly. "So how are you? And what's going on with you?"

"I'm fine. We're actually here to see my mom. Michael's going to stay there for the night. Here Michael why don't you go and pick a song from the juke-box," Carly said as she handed Michael money. "So how are thing with you and that bastard husband of yours? How long till you wise up so I can find you a real man. Hey you may have missed out on the best man out there. Apparently he had a hot date yesterday."

"Carly, will you stop trying to hook me up you know I'm married and that I love AJ. And you know that AJ's it for me. I'm not going to become one of those women with like 20 husbands," Courtney replied.

"Yeah well you'll learn that AJ not worth it someday. But I just have to tell this to someone. I think that Jason maybe be falling in love. That's the guy I really wanted to hook you up with, but you claim to love your husband. Hey, love doesn't always last forever when you're not meant to be," Carly teased.

"You know what I don't want to deal with this I have other costumers. Plus I don't want to deal with you harassing my husband," Courtney stated as she walked away. The real reason that she left Carly because she didn't want to talk about Jason, because Carly knew her and might find out that Jason was with her so there was no way he fell in love last night. "Unless he fell in love with me. No, no, he couldn't do that. They were just friends and barely had anything in common. There was no way. Carly just pulling my leg. Plus I'm married and love my husband," her brain told her.
