Sam was finally allowed to take Catalina home, everything was fine. Jason stayed by their sides during the whole process. Sam had no words to thank him. Everything she told him it was ok to leave that she and the baby were fine, he still stayed.

She was glad to have him there, but there were times just all of a sudden, guilt would just take over. She began to think of what would happen if he knew. Would he hate her for lying for so long? Would he take Catalina away? Sam couldn't handle that, so she chickened out every time se got close to telling him.

Once Jason dropped off Sam and Catalina he needed to go and she understood a part of her was glad. It wasn't easy to see him all day and know the truth. Catalina was a sleep and would be for awhile after all the medicine she was given.

With a long sigh, Sam sat down on the edge of her bed. She grabbed a news paper on the way back to her boat. Somewhere along the line of the last couple of days, even though she knew it would be hard, she decided to stay in Port Charles. And a boat wasn't the best place to raise a baby.

One place stood out, Sam was amazed in her first try in looking, and she found something she liked. It was a two bedroom apartment just a couple of blocks from Kelly's and in her price range. Till she got back to work, her savings were coming in handy.

"What are you doing?" A familiar voice asked.

Sam looked up, she wasn't shocked to see her, just curious. A smile formed on her lips. "What are you doing here?" she asked as she placed the paper down beside her.

The woman let out a sigh. "Checking in on you. I heard my niece was in the hospital, I wanted to come make sure her and you were ding ok." She explained, leaning against the doorframe.

"She's fine. Doing a lot better. They didn't find anything wrong." Sam explained. "The last time I saw you, I was pregnant. What brings you back to Port Charles?" she asked her older sister.

"And here I thought you would be glad to see me."

"I am. Just wondering. I just thought you would never ever come to Port Charles again. That's how you made it sound." Sam reminded her sister. She was of course glad to see her. They hadn't grown up together. Sam met her older sister when she was 16 and they instantly became close.

"I know what I said but that was before and I missed you so here I am. My question before, what are you looking for?" She asked again.

"A place to live. I can't raise Catalina here and I decided to stay in Port Charles." Sam explained.

"Really? That sounds like a good idea." She said as she neared her sister and sat beside her.

Sam arched an eyebrow. "Why?"

"Because I've been all around the word and Port Charles is the only place that feels like home so I'm back and whoever doesn't like it can kiss my ass. So, looking for a roommate?" She asked with a wide smile.

Sam laughed. "Well—it would be good to catch up with you and Catalina could use her aunt around. So yeah if you want to move in with me, you are more then welcome. I found a nice two bedroom apartment but now I think it would be better for three for when Catalina gets older." She explained.

"You leave that to me. I'll take care of everything. You just pack and be ready when I tell you let's go. Now that's taken care of. What about Catalina's father? Have you told him yet?" She asked, growing serious now.

"No. I'm scared to tell him. I couldn't handle if he hated me." Sam explained as she stared at the floor.

"Are you going to ever tell me who it is?"

"No." Sam shook her head. "You know him too well." She simply said.

"Well I guess I could say I know Jason, he's not an easy person to get."

Sam's heart skipped a beat. "You know?"

"Yes I know. I saw you guys together at the hospital and I had a feeling it was him since you told me you became close. And you just confirmed my hunch." She explained. A content feeling of being right.

Sam sighed again. "You can't tell him. Brenda please promise me." She had grabbed her sister's hand. She was begging but she didn't care. Jason couldn't know. Not know, if ever.

Brenda looked into her sisters eyes. The sister she grew to love more then anything. "I won't but you should. Don't be scared of what could happen. Just trust Jase and tell him the truth." She explained. She knew Jason since high school. He was there for her when she needed someone. They had become friends before she left. But Brenda never told him or anyone about the sister she had found. She was a little shocked to hear Sam and Sonny were together but she got over it because Sam didn't know about their past.

"I can't. I mean I tried and I just couldn't." Sam confessed.

Brenda wasn't going too push her sister but she had a plan. One of the reasons she was back in town. "OK. What ever you want." She said.

"Thank you."

"Well I have some house hunting to do. I should get out of here." Brenda said as she stood from the bed. The same moment the door re-opened. "Hey, Jason." She said, not knowing what else to really say.

Jason wondered why Brenda Barrett was visiting Sam McCall. "What's going on?" he asked as he looked between each woman.

Sam looked at Brenda and shrugged.

Brenda looked at Jason, flashed a small smile. "Sam and I are sisters. I should get going." She explained nearing the door. She stopped in front of Jason who seemed speechless. "Oh yeah, I'm back in Port Charles for good. See you later." And she was gone.

Sam couldn't help but laugh. She looked at Jason and shrugged again.

"Sisters?" Jason questioned. "All this time everyone mentioned Brenda and you knew who she was." He realized.

"Yeah. We didn't grow up together and only shared a mother. We found each other when I was 16 and became close like if we had grown up together as sisters. I didn't know about her past with Sonny and Jax. She didn't seem to care, said it was in the past. I haven't seen her in a year and now she's back" Sam explained as she stood from the bed and checked on Catalina.

"I would've never guessed. I don't think anyone would've." Jason said. He had no idea what to think. He stood there and watched Sam, watching Catalina sleep. "Sam." He softly said after a minute.

Sam looked up from the crib and met Jason's eyes. Realizing that was a mistake she focused on his shoulder. "Yeah?"

Jason let out a sigh as he rubbed his jaw. "I have this feeling you're lying to me about something. And I think it's time you told me."
