A/N: Dear 'carly', Please stop reading my story. If you choose to read a story about a character that you don't like and couples that you can't appreciate then that's your problem not mine. You are not gaining extra "points" for your favorite character (gee, I wonder who that is?) by ripping on other characters. Do not tell me to stop writing the story or that the story sucks simply because of the characters. If you have constructive criticism I am all ears, if not…. GO AWAY! As for everyone else, thank you for the kind reviews and suggestions. It is very sweet to know that the story is being read and loved by at least some! Well, enough of that. I promise to never mention the above reviewer again.

PART A

Brenda and Isabella had just finished watching the movie when there was another knock on the door.

"I'll get it!"

Brenda sighed. At least she was sitting right there this time, instead of being in the other room.

"Jason!" Isabella squealed as Jason lifted her and swung her in the air.

Brenda was relieved to say the least. After the last visitor she didn't think she was up for any more. Of course, Jason was an exception. "Hey" she managed a smile.

"You didn't sound too happy on the phone. Everything okay? Nobody bugged you did they? Was is Alcazar?"

"Jason! Shut up!" Brenda quickly interrupted.

"Hey! You said I can't say shut up so how come you can?" Isabella jumped in.

Brenda sighed again. This day just gets longer and longer. "Sweetheart go clean your room, its starting to look like a disaster area."

Brenda and Jason watched as the little girl pouted and stormed upstairs.

"She's not very happy with me today. I kind of kicked Sonny out before she had a chance to spend time with him. She really likes him. And you too, she really likes you."

"Brenda, stop rambling" Jason pulled Brenda by her arm and sat her down on the couch. "Now tell me what's wrong. Why did you kick out Sonny?" Jason couldn't help but feel a little thrill out of those words.

"He kissed me" Brenda blurted. She looked up at Jason and found no surprise written on his face. He almost looks disappointed…

"Right. How did it happen?" Jason did not like where this was going.

"He started talking about protecting me how I need bodyguards and I just went off on him. I started calling him cocky-well let's face it, he is- and he just grabbed me and kissed me."

Jason just sat there quietly, unable to think of anything to say.

"Can you believe his nerve!? I mean it's only been a few months now and he just kisses me! Typical Sonny…"

"Did you kiss him back?" Jason just barely whispered.

Brenda paused. "What?"

"Did you kiss him back?" Jason repeated. "What did you do when he kissed you?"

"I told him I didn't want him to! What else would I have done?! Pulled him into bed with me?! God, this entire town thinks that I live and breathe Sonny Corinthos! Well, for your information I haven't been with that man in 10 years!" Brenda laughed. "You know of all people I would think at least you would know better."

"Yeah, I do know better Brenda. Sonny nearly broke you when he left you and even then you still love him. I look at you and I see it. Everyone does. It's the same with Sonny. It's so obvious it's a wonder the two of you can't pull it together" Jason looked at Brenda as her eyes filled with tears….

PART B

As Sonny walked out of his meeting at General Hospital he saw Brenda and Jason stepping out of the elevator. He really seems to make her happy.

"Thanks for the ride Jason, but really I could have driven myself" Brenda smiled.

"I know, but I wanted the company"

"For what? Its not like you can talk to a person while you're riding that bike of yours" Brenda pointed out. "Besides, why didn't we take your real car?"

"What? Just because it lacks doors and windows it's no longer a valid mode of transportation. Anyways, maybe I just liked to feel your arms around my waist during the ride here" he said as he teasingly leaned towards her.

"You're just lucky, Jason Morgan, that your helmet didn't mess up my hair."

"It wouldn't have really been a problem."

"No? Why not?" Brenda demanded to know.

"Because you always look good" Jason flirtatiously smiled at her before walking back onto the elevator.

Brenda smiled "Was that a compliment?"

Jason just smirked back as the doors closed.

Brenda sighed, things really have changed.

Sonny, noticing she was alone, quickly strode over to her and leaning in next to her ear whispered her name. Brenda jumped slightly at the surprise and spun around to find Sonny grinning at her mischievously.

"What are you doing here?" Brenda asked feeling slightly thrown.

"I was about to ask you the same. I was just here for a meeting on renovations to take place in Stone's memorial"

"What kind of renovations?" Brenda asked as they moved towards some seats.

"Nothing big. More of a cleaning and maintenance than anything else"

Brenda nodded. "I'm just coming in for a check-up"

"Hope nothing's wrong" Sonny said, trying not to be too nosy and make her uncomfortable.

"No, no"

Sonny only nodded. "I thought I saw Jason with you"

"Yeah, he dropped me off"

"Well that was nice of him. You guys have really gotten a lot closer over the years" Unfortunately for me.

"We really have. If you had told me that we would end up friends five years ago I would have laughed"

Sonny smiled at her "A lot has changed in those five years" And your relationship seems a lot more than friendship.

"Everything has changed" Brenda looked back at Sonny and smiled reminiscently. "I should really get to my appointment"

"Yeah, maybe I could stop by and see you a little later this week?"

"I'd like that" Brenda smiled at Sonny again before leaving.

I know she's not ready to be involved, but I can't just stand by and watch as Jason wins her over. I have to do something….
