AN: Another one shot. This is how I wanted everything to play out when Jason got back to PC. Read and Review and most of all enjoy: )
…………
She felt alone. Even with a life growing inside of her. A matter of days and her life became more complicated and hurtful. She just wanted to be free, of everything. She wanted to be happy again. To never cry of sadness again but Sam McCall stopped wishing after awhile because they never came true.
Now she sat alone in a tiny jail cell at the Port Charles police department. She knew soon they would come and take her away from the only place she felt like she had a home.
It wasn't all bad, she had happiness. She also met the one person she would never forget. He was there when no one else was. He believed in her when she didn't believe in herself. It happened so fast, he came into her life over night and now he would be gone just as fast. Of course she knew he wouldn't abandon her in jail but once that wasn't taken care of, he would leave. There was no need for him to stay any longer because the whole truth was out.
It was surprising to know out of everyone she's ever met, he stood out. She'd miss him the most. She smiled at the thought of him and everything he was. Loyal, generous, caring, unselfish, honest, and not too bad on the eyes, she had to admit. She might've been in love with another but she wasn't blind.
He had the most caring eyes she'd ever seen. This is crazy, she thought. Why was she thinking of him of all people? Yes she was going to miss him but that still didn't explain why the thought of his face made everything seem a little better. Why the memories only they shared were at the surface of her brain.
It hit her awhile ago, when she decided to tell him the whole truth, that she did care for him. He was the only one she trusted with her secrets. She knew he would do the right thing and for that she would always be grateful to Jason Morgan.
Sam laid back on the thin mattress and counted the endless hours to come.

Jason just got back to Port Charles. Setting Danny up took longer then he thought it would've. He was headed back to the safe house to let Sam know how her brother was and to make sure she and the baby were alright as well. He was relieved to know her biggest secret was the fact she was covering for her brother, he admired it. Because it was something he would do for those he loved. They were more alike then not. That came as a surprise because he was sure no one could understand let alone be they same way in so many ways.
Jason reached the safe house, opened the door, and saw that it was pretty quite. " Sam!" he called out. But he knew there wasn't going to be an answer, he turned around and headed to Harbor View towers for some answers.
Once he stepped out of the elevator, Max opened the door to Sonny's Penthouse.
" Jason, you're finally back." Carly exclaimed from her seat on the sofa, next to her husband.
" Where were you?" Sonny had asked.
" I had to take care of something." Jason answered. It wasn't a lie but it wasn't the full truth. Sam trusted him to keep her secret and that meant not telling anyone. Not even his best friend/boss and the man Sam was in love with.
Sonny nodded, wanting more answers but he figured Jason was being silent because Carly was there. " What's up?" he asked.
" I went to the safe house and Sam's gone. What's going on?" Jason asked as he crossed his arms and stood close to the door.
" You don't know." Carly said with regret in her voice. Jason should've been told even if he wasn't the father of the baby, he was still watching over Sam.
" Ric found her. They're holding her at PCPD--" Sonny didn't get another word out because Jason left. " I should've called him but I had no idea where he went." he said.
" Sonny do you think it was a good idea for Jason to watch after Sam?" Carly asked as her mind began to think of possibilities.
" Why?"
" Because the way Jason just left. I'd say something's happening."

Sam heard light footsteps walking down the aisle of cells. She figured the guards were changing shifts. She was right because a police officer walked past her cell, wearing a cap. He stopped. Sam looked at him but she couldn't see his face.
" Can I help you?" Sam asked as she sat up.
" You didn't really think I was going to leave you in here, did you?" Jason asked as he finally reviled his face.
Caring blue eyes, Sam smiled as she stood and walked toward him. " Well I didn't know when I'd see you again so--I was pretty sure I was stuck here." she answered. She looked him from head to toe, the uniform was working." So I guess you have a plan."
" I'm getting you out of here. I know you don't want to leave Port Charles but you have to trust me on this." Jason softly explained so he couldn't be overheard.
" I do trust you Jason, you should know that by now. I didn't want to leave before because Danny was here but you took care of that. So now I'll do whatever you think is best." Sam explained as she found herself avoiding his eyes when she use to go to them for comfort. But now when she looked at him, her insides fluttered.
" That's good to hear." Jason said as he bent down and opened the bag he had brought with him. " Here. Put this on." he said as he handed Sam another police uniform.
" How did you--?"
" I'll explain later. Just hurry up before someone comes." Jason explained.
" Ok, turn around." Sam told him once she had the items in her hand.
Jason just smiled and did as told.
" So where are we going?" Sam asked as she changed.
" I don't know. Where do you want to go?" Jason asked as he kept his back turned. Also watching out for anyone coming. He had a plan but he didn't have enough time to work out every detail.
" I don't really care as long it's away from this jail cell and this mess." Sam answered.
" What do you want me to tell Sonny?" Jason asked. The mood became a little more serious with that question.
Sam sighed as she finished getting ready. She walked back to the bars. " You can turn around now." Once Jason was facing her she explained her thought, her feelings. " I'm not going to keep this child from Sonny, he's the father. But the birth is months away, enough time to leave and work out this murder conviction. He and Carly are back together, I don't want him to worry about me anymore. Tell him what you want but if your asking what I want. I don't want Sonny to know where I'm not. Not now anyway, I need to work something's out." she explained.
" What does that mean? You want time alone to get over Sonny?" Jason asked.
" It means I'm glad he and Carly worked it out because they deserve each other. It means I have moved on. It hurts, yeah because I was in love with him but that'll soon fade too. I want to live for me and my daughter." Sam explained. Saying it and thinking it were two different things because now she felt like a ton of bricks had been lifted from her shoulders.
" It sounds like you have it all worked out." Jason said as he began to open the cell door.
" Jail. It's a good place to think." Sam said as she now stood in front of Jason. " Thanks, for everything."
" Thank me once I get you out of all of this." Jason said as he pulled a cap over her head. " Follow my lead."
Jason and Sam walked down the long hall way that lead into the main offices of the police department. Ric Lansing was in court for the next hour, that was a good thing. They walked side by side, appearing to be partners on their way out. Sam had no idea it would be this easy. She knew once Jason got back into town get would get her out.
They reached outside, fresh air. No one looked twice at them as they walked down the sidewalk. A couple of blocks later, the get away car.
" That was awesome." Sam said as she pulled off her cap. Once they were driving down the rode.
Jason shot her a confused look. " Awesome?" he questioned.
" So close to getting out but at any moment you could get caught. Come on Jase, that's a rush." Sam explained with a wide smile. She felt like she was alive, more alive then she's been in years.
Jason just smiled at her because he didn't know what to say.
" So we're hitting the rode." Sam pointed out as she stared out the window.
" Yeah." Jason said as he kept his eyes on the rode. There was a huge relief of getting her out of jail. It was a joy, a feeling he hadn't felt in a long time. Lately Sam's been a surprise, a joy herself. A person he wanted to be around.
" Just us." Sam gladly said as she looked at Jason's face.
" Just us."
