Chapter 8
"What… What about Courtney?" Jason asked hoping against hope that Sonny didn't find out about her job at the Oasis.
"Well, it's more about AJ and Courtney. I'm worried about their finical well being. Because apparently AJ must really love her, he well gave up his Quartermaine fortune to be with her. Edward tried to make him choose between her and the family and he chose her. I mean you know how much I hate to say this, but maybe this marriage isn't all about me anymore and he really loves my sister," Sonny told Jason as he scratched his forehead.
Jason didn't want to admit it and he couldn't believed he was thinking this but he wanted AJ marriage to Courtney to be about getting Sonny and not loving Courtney. He asked Sonny, "Well, what does this have to do me? I barley know Courtney. I mean aside from when I talk to her at Kelly's," as he scratched his head.
Sonny replied, "That's just it. I'm not sure that I'm buying this whole give up money for Courtney. Come on you know AJ and how much the Quartermaine money means to him. I don't think he would give that up just for love. I want you to check it out and if it turns out he's telling the truth I want you to buddy with Courtney, so I can give her money and let her live the way she deserves. I figure if a friend tells her maybe she should consider than she will. And I can only trust you with my sister. You understand what I'm saying."
Jason nodded, but wasn't sure just being friends with Courtney was possible. Not with the way he's been acting around her and AJ jealousness. "I'll try, but trying to be friends with her may not be that easy."
***********
"Hey, there's my beautiful wife, who wants to come with me for a beautiful and romantic dinner with he wonderful husband to celebrate his new job," AJ stated as he walked into Kelly's toward Courtney.
Courtney went and kissed him on the cheek, "I would love to but I have to work sweetie. I'm sorry. Maybe another time. I feel really bad that we can't go. Why don't you call Skye and see if she wants to go and celebrate with you."
"But you've been working all day. They can't make you work all night, I'm sure that Elizabeth or Penny would love to fill-in for you. It's not everyday that your husband gets a great job," AJ complained.
"If I were working at Kelly's tonight I would ask, but tonight I have to work at the bank. I wish that I didn't have to, but there's nothing I can do. I can't call out. Not again."
"Then quit. Now that I have a job you don't need to be working two jobs. We'll make up the money in no time. Plus all this job does his take time away from me being with you. And no money is worth that," AJ replied.
"AJ, I can't quit not yet anyway. After are sure that we have a good nest that if one of us ends up not working for a while then I'll quit. I promise. And tonight we'll doing something special when I get home," Courtney smiled as she kissed AJ. AS she kissed him and her mind pictured it were Jason and not AJ that she was kissing. She backed away quick.
***********
"What do you mean it's not easy going to be friends with her Jason? Courtney's a nice, innocent and sweet girl who was handed and hard life, and she still believes in the good in everyone. How is that going to be hard to be friends with someone like that? Unless you just don't like her. Is that it Jase?" Sonny questioned as he looked into Jason eyes expecting them to answer with no words at all.
Finally realizing that he said part of his thought out loud he needed to think of something to tell Sonny, "No, no Sonny it's not like that… I just met that yes Courtney is easy to get along with, but AJ letting me be friends with her, now that's something else. You know how he is and there's nothing that I can do about that. I'll try but I can't make any promises. Now I know she can make up her own mind, but she loves AJ and I'm sure that the last thing she wants to do is egg on his jealousness. That's all I was saying." Jason finally let out a breath air hoping Sonny brought it and didn't suspect that he had feelings for Courtney.
"Alright I understand what you're saying. But at least try. I want to help my sister and I know that she can be stubborn, but I want to try and see if she'll let me help. Thanks man," Sonny sighed as he shook Jason's hand.
"See ya later," Jason said as he headed for the door. He wanted to stop by Kelly's and grab some lunch. He also wanted to see if Courtney was there so they could talk, but he would never admit that not even to himself.
***********
"Courtney, what's wrong. Are you okay? I mean one second we were kissing than you stepped away like I don't know what," AJ said confused.
"No, no I'm fine. I just had this chill that ran up my spine that's all. It was nothing don't worry about it, but you know I should go back to work. I'm not being a very good waitress. I've like abandoned my costumers. Thanks for stopping by AJ," Courtney replied as she kissed her husband on the cheek and resumed working. Courtney just hoped that AJ believed her excuse and wanted him to leave before she said or did something that could possible ruin her marriage.
After AJ left Jason was coming up the docks and toward Kelly's. Jason felt as if someone was watching him, but just shrugged it off as he went into Kelly's. As he opened the door he saw her standing there laughing with her long blonde hair up in a pony. "Breath, its just Courtney. She's married to your brother and you CAN'T like her. This thing will pass. It's just the way her hair looks," he kept telling himself as he proceeded to put one foot in front of the other. He found a table and prayed that it was one of hers. He kept praying until his waitress appeared. She had on a blue tank top, a beige skirt that fell just mid-knee and blue flip-flops that matched her shirt, and eyes. It was her she was his waitress. "It's okay, just don't act like a dork. Act like you don't even like her. No don't do that. Just be yourself," his mind raced.
"Jason, Jason, are you up there? Do you want anything like food, black coffee? Ah ha! Black coffee is what gets you," Courtney said as Jason came from his thoughts.
"Yeah! I'm so sorry. I was just thinking and I guess I got loss up there. There's a lot to get lost with up in this head here. That made no sense I'm sorry. A black coffee would be great," Jason told her feeling like a complete dork.
"Look don't worry about Jason. I can't keep your secret. I already have you keeping enough of mine, so it's only fair that I keep at least one of yours. I'll be write back with your coffee," Courtney replied, she still felt a little weird around him because after all he seen her at the Oasis and she felt this strange attractions toward him and she's a married woman. As she walked away her heart was pounding "You were good. You didn't embarrass yourself this time. Now if you can only keep it up the rest of the time," she told herself.
Jason was sitting at his table thinking, "What is wrong with you. Just breathe inhale, exhale. Control yourself. This thing you have for her is just a crush. That's all it is a crush it's not some big thing it's a crush. God Carly was right" Jason said to himself out loud not aware that Courtney heard.
"What was Carly right about Jason?" Courtney asked as she poured Jason his coffee.
"It's nothing really. It's not important. So what's going with you? When do you get off? Are you and AJ going to do something? And how's Rosie?" Jason asked trying to change the subject.
"It something or else you wouldn't babbling like that. But I know how you are about your personal life. Carly told me, well and other things. Well to answer your questions nothing, about an hour and no I have to work. And I'm forgetting something… Rosie's doing great especially after that walk this morning. Well it was more or like this afternoon. Why what have you been up to? Falling in love perhaps" she teased.
Jason spit out his coffee, how does she know am I that transparent he thought. "What would give you that idea? No, no let me guess Carly right." Courtney nodded her head, "I should have known. But no Courtney I'm not falling in love. I like being single. Right now that is. You want to know where Carly got the idea of me falling in love don't you?"
"Yeah! But only if you want to tell me other wise I can leave all up to my imagination," she replied. Jason then told her a similar story he told Sonny and Carly, only he left out the beginning about how he went riding. "It all my fault that Carly thinks you're falling in love with someone because you took me riding before you brought me home from the Oasis. I'm so sorry Jason, I won't do that again."
"Don't worry it not your fault. I didn't feel tired after I dropped you off so I went back out riding until really early this morning. That's the real reason I'm out of it," he lied. "So don't blame yourself for something that was mine. I also like taking riding. No one else ever tried to get the same experience out of it as I do. So it doesn't matter, remember if you ever need to escape that I'll be there for you, well me and my bike anyway," he said as she smiled and said thanks. After she walked away he put a nice tip on the table and left. He couldn't stay there anymore all he wanted to do was to tell her how he felt. What he was the most confused about was he didn't really feel so unable to control these feeling until he drove her home yesterday. Before that he felt a crush for her but really put it in the back of his mind, but then when he drove her home it was also like his mind wouldn't let him like someone or something wouldn't let him let her go.
A/N: Hey, sorry it took me some time t o get this updated I was having a little writer's block. I wasn't sure where the story was going to go. All these ideas kept popping up and I wasn't sure which one I was going to use. I hope you like the chap. Feel free to let me know. ~Morgan~
