Ch. 15 Playing the Card
"What the hell are you doing here?" Sonny demanded of the younger man.
Ric hadn't even acknowledged the presence of Carly and Jason. Looking only at Sonny he began to explain himself.
"Well, I heard that Courtney was awake. I'm going to need to get a statement from her about exactly what happened."
Carly scoffed as the words came out of his mouth. His act was making her sick to her stomach.
"Still playing 'the law card' Ric? Have you forgotten that this is partially your fault?" Carly threw at him. He ignored her completely and began to walk near Courtney's room. Before he could open the door he found Jason standing in front of him. Staring him down with a fiery rage burning in his eyes.
Now it was again Sonny's turn to speak. He came and stood next to Jason and glared at Ric.
"You need to stay the hell away from my family."
Ric chuckled at this before he replied, " You forget. I am your family."
"Only by blood."
Ric just gave him a cocky smirk that made Sonny want to punch him. again. He slowly began to walk away.
"I'll be back later for the statement." Then he was gone, leaving them all in disgust.
After Ric had left, Jason peeked in to make sure that the argument hadn't disturbed her. He was relieved to see that she had fallen asleep. He left her in piece and went to talk to Sonny.
"What about Faith?" Jason wanted revenge.
"I got a tip. Someone said that she was staying at a cheap motel off of 49th. We aren't sure, so I'd like you to go make sure if it is or not. If it is give me a call and I'll send someone to take care of her. I need you to make sure you're here with her. She can't think that you had anything to do with it. Do you understand?"
"I got you. I'll check it out." Then Jason left to do what he was told.
Faith had been in the crummy motel for god knows how long when an idea finally came to her. She felt like an idiot, why hadn't she thought of it before. She knew exactly who she would get to help her. With a small giggle to herself, Faith picked up her few things that she had brought with her and left the motel.
A few minutes later she arrived at the house and knocked on the door. Impatiently, she looked at her watch and knocked louder and harder. Finally the door opened.
"What can I do for you?"
"I have a proposition for you." she let herself in as she spoke. With a smile, he shut the door.
It wasn't hard for Jason to find the motel. It was the only near that street. The manager had said that a lady fitting Faith's description was staying in room 4. Jason thanked the man and went to the door. Stealthily, putting his ear against the door. He heard nothing. The window blinds were shut and he had no way of actually seeing if it was her. Taking a chance, he picked the lock and pushed the door open.
The room was dark, and empty. There was absolutely no idication that someone had ever been there.
"Damn it." he whispered to himself before pulling out his cell and dialing Sonny.
The phone rang a couple of times before it clicked and he heard Sonny's voice.
"Corinthos."
"Yea, it's me, Faith isn't here. Manager said he checked in a woman matching her description. But if she was here she left. It's a dead end."
"Alright then just get back here." Sonny clicked the phone off and looked up to see his wife. She had her, 'you better tell me what's going on' look on her face. He knew he would end up telling her anyway so he just admitted it to her. "We had a lead on Faith, but it's a dead end."
"I'm sure you'll find her. Why don't we get home to the boys?" He nodded and they left the hospital.
The man was laughing at her. She hated it when people didn't take her seriously. But she was desperate so she let him finish his ammusement.
"I'm sorry." he spoke stifling the laughter." I thought you just asked for my help. I must be crazy."
"This is no joke, I'm in serious need of a getaway and I'm pretty sure that you're going to help me." Faith's patience was wearing thin. "Will you or won't you?"
"Alright, I'll help you. But what's in it for me?"
"Anything you want. Name it."
"Revenge." She smiled, she loved it when he thought this way.
"Deal."
A/N: dun dun dun (dramatic music) who do you think the guy is?
