            Courtney rolled over to her other side and opened her eyes. She sat up and was startled by Jason who was sitting so close staring down at her.

            "Hey," she said quietly breaking their gaze and staring around the room. Jason nodded in acknowledgment but was clearly lost in his own thoughts.

            "Where are we?" Courtney asked realizing she had know idea where they had ended up.

            "We've been kidnapped," he stated.

            "Kidnapped?!? Are you kidding me? How many damn times can I be kidnapped?" Courtney responded clearly in a state of disbelief.

            "I'm sorry," Jason responded.

            "You're sorry? We're locked in a freaking room! Together," she added.

            "Well, nothing gets passed you," Jason replied.

            "Oh shut up," Courtney said while leaning back on the bed wishing this was all some dream.
            "We need to figure out who did this," Jason said while getting up and beginning to pace around the room.

            "Mmm… I'm guessing Alcazar, Faith… everyone who hates you and Sonny. That could be a pretty long list," Courtney replied.

            "Look, I can understand why you would be pissed at me but you're bitchy attitude isn't helping," Jason said stopping in front of her.

            "Bitchy attitude? Yeah I do have a damn good reason to be pissed off at you," Courtney responded jumping up in front of him.

            "God Courtney, we can't fight right now. Can you understand that?" Jason asked while trying to figure out who had him locked in a room with his ex-wife.

            "Fine," she responded lying back against the bed facing away from him. Jason began to pace again.

            Outside the room the two kidnappers were leaning against the wall waiting for the man who hired them to arrive. Finally the heard another door open then close and from around the corner this man appeared.

            "Mr. Lansing," one of the kidnappers stated. It's Ric… oh no!

            "Did you get Morgan and the girl?" he asked getting straight to the point.

            "Yeah there locked in the room," the other kidnapper responded.

            "Alright good job boys. You'll get what you asked for when this is all over," Ric stated.

            "I don't know…." One kidnapper said to the other, "I think we should get paid for doing this alone,"

            "Alright… alright," Ric said knowing that he needed these men to corporate with him, "I'll get you some money tomorrow."

            "You're a good man Lansing," one of them replied.

            "Alright, I'm gonna go in there. I need you to stand guard and make sure nothing happens," Ric replied moving towards the door.

            "Alright," they responded.

            Back at Sonny's penthouse he was becoming increasingly nervous since he hadn't heard from Jason all day. He knew there were only three explanations for this; Jason had been taken somewhere, hurt, or dead. He too was pacing. He noticed Carly coming down the stairs and stopped her before she could leave the penthouse.

            "Hey have you heard from Jason?" he asked.

            "Not today… haven't you?" she responded.

            "No. I sent him away last night. He seemed under too much stress so I told him to take the night off and I haven't heard from his since," Sonny replied as he began to pace again.

            "He's probably on his way over here," Carly said trying not to worry.

            "Yeah… yeah you've probably right," Sonny responded through he wasn't completely convinced.

            Ric stopped in front of the door blocking him from Jason and Courtney. He grasped the door knob and thrust it open. He then stepped inside shutting the door behind him. Jason looked up from the ground he was staring at and his eyes landed on Ric.

            "Ric?!?" Jason questioned. This caught Courtney's attention and she quickly sat up and also saw Ric.

            "Oh my god…. Are you kidding me?" she stated.

            "How you doin' Morgan?" Ric asked smiling at him.

            "I'm gonna kill you Ric! I'm gonna kill you," Jason yelled angrily heading towards Ric like he was going to bust him in seven. Courtney quickly jumped off the bed and pushed Jason back.

            "Jason stop," Courtney said pushing on his chest so he would back up. He reluctantly obeyed.
            "You've got yourself a smart ex-lady," Ric pointed out, "I could of easily charged with assult…. And I believe you did threaten me."

            "You kidnapped us you freakin jackass," Courtney replied.

            "I am still the DEA," Ric replied.

            "What the hell are you doing Ric? What do you want?" Jason asked.

            "You know…. That's a very serious question and I just can't reveal," Ric responded.

            "Ric you're freaking psychotic! Just get the hell out of here," Courtney said trying to maintain her raging temper.

            "You should watch who you insult, you'll end up with a very unlucky fate," Ric replied. Jason had had enough and pushed past Courtney and pushed Ric against the wall.

            "Watch who YOU insult Ric. I'll snap you before you even get close to Courtney! You'd be dead if she wasn't here," Jason yelled at Ric, his eyes full of fury.

            "Jason stop," Courtney said grabbing the end of his shirt and pulling him back. Jason backed up slowly never let his gaze drop Ric's.

            "Watch yourself Morgan," Ric said just before throwing open the door and rushing out locking it behind him.
