Rebecca: I am glad that you like the story, I hope you like the next chapter

Shamira: It is nice of you to read my new story. I wished that GH show Carly and Sonny helping Courntey with the lost of her baby too. What is Courtney going to do while she is feeling like this? I guess you will have to just read the story, and find out.

Morgan3 – Intriguing ... I never thought my story was any thing like that. But if you think so then I am glad.

Theblondeoneo7- I'm like that you like it so far….

Aftermath

Chapter 2

Courtney walked into the penthouse and saw that Jason was sitting on the couch.

"I'm sorry, Jason," she said as she went over to him. Jason looked up at her.

"You are back. Look I understand that you are hurting because of the baby, but you can't push me away."

"Jason, I don't want to push you away, but I'm just really hurting right now and.."

"Then talk to me," Jason urged.

"I can't! If you don't understand how I am feeling then, then why should I tell you?" Courntey snapped. She got up from the couch and walked upstairs, leaving Jason all alone. Jason rubbed his face with his hands, confused at what just happened. How he could help Courntey if she wouldn't talk to him. He grabbed his jacket and left the penthouse.

**

About an hour later, Courntey came downstairs and saw that Jason was gone.

"Oh man. What did I do?" she thought aloud to herself. She grabbed her bag and looked for the bottle of pills that she had put in there. I need them… I just want to forget about all the pain and feel like myself again. She emptied her bag out and then she found the bottle of pills. She was about to open the bottle when she heard someone called her name. She looked up and saw Sonny standing in front of her.

"What are you doing?" he asked. Courtney looked up at him and faked a smile.

"I'm just cleaning my bag; you know how messy I am," she said as she put the bottle in her pocket, without Sonny noticing.

"If you are looking for Jason, he isn't here," Courtney said sitting down on the couch. Sonny sat down next to her.

"I'm here to see you. Carly told me that you are having a hard time dealing with your loss," he said gently looking down at his baby sister. Courtney looked at him, angry.

"Carly told you?!" she shouted as she walked over to the window, "I'm fine, Sonny. I don't need your help." Sonny went over to Courntey.

"Carly is worried about you. She knows what it's like to lose a baby." Courntey turned around.

"How did you deal with it? Did you talk to Carly about your loss or did you just make out like nothing happened? Like there was no baby in the first place?" Sonny took a hold of Courtney's hand and led her to the couch, again.

"Mine and Carly's situation is a little different than what happened to you."

"What are you saying that it was my fault? That mine and Jason's baby died because of me?" Courntey snapped.

"No... I'm just saying that me and Carly hated each other, but when we lost our baby, it just brought us together. Now with you and Jason, you loved each other before any of this ever happened. I know I didn't agree with your relationship at first, but I know you love each other," Sonny said gently. There was a knock at the door. Courtney stood up and answered it. She saw Carly standing in front of her.

"Is Sonny here? We were suppose to go out for dinner."

"He is right here," Courntey said. Carly walked in and over to the couch, where Sonny was still sitting. She kissed him softly on the lips and he stood up.

"I'll see you later," Carly said.

"Bye," Sonny said as he walked out of the penthouse.

Courntey was lying on the bed, when Jason walked into their bedroom. She looked up at him and got out of bed. She went over to him and put her arms around him.

"Where did you go?" she asked.

"I just had business I had to do for Sonny," he said.

"Jason, I'm so sorry at how I have been acting and treating you, but I just don't know what to feel anymore... All I feel right now is sadness and emptiness," Courtney whispered putting her head on Jason's chest.

"I know you do," he said as he stroked her hair. It feels so good to be in Jason's arms. It's like I forget everything that has happened the past few weeks. She thought to herself. She wanted desperately to let go of the pain of losing their baby, but she just couldn't do it.

Later that night, Courtney saw Jason holding their baby.

"Oh Jason, isn't she cute?" Courtney smiled. Courtney went to grab the baby and the baby was gone.

"You killed our baby, Courtney. You shouldn't have jumped into that water. It's all your fault. I'll never forgive you!"

**

Courtney woke up in a sweat. She looked at Jason and saw that he's sleeping peacefully. She touched his face gently, careful not to wake him.

"I'm really sorry that I messed up. I killed our baby." Our baby. If I hadn't been so stupid and follow Jason, we would have been excited about our baby coming, now all we feel is hurt. The look on his face, I know that he is angry at me for losing our baby. Courtney thought to herself. She knew what she needed to do, but it would have to wait until the morning.

"Courtney, are you okay?" Courtney looked at Jason and smiled.

"I'm fine; I just couldn't get to sleep." Jason put his arms around her.

"Are you sure that you are fine?" Courtney leaned over and kissed him.

"Yes!" She hated lying to Jason, but he just didn't understand how she was feeling and he probably never would. She put her head on his chest, and started to fall asleep. The last thing that she heard before she went to asleep was.

"I love you, Courntey."

**

The next morning, Courtney woke up and saw that Jason was gone, which made it easier for her to do what she needed to do. She climbed out of bed and pick up her clothes that were on the floor. That was when she saw the bottle of pills on the floor. She decided to put the painkillers in her bag, just in case she needed them.

An hour later, Courntey showed up at Kelly's.

"Is Bobbie here?" Courntey asked Penny.

"She is in the kitchen; do you need to talk to her?" Courntey nodded, "I'll go get her for you," Penny said.

"Could I have a coffee too, please?" Courntey called out to Penny. A few minutes later, Penny came with a coffee.

"Bobbie will be right out in a minute."

"Thanks," Courntey said, as she drank her coffee. She grabbed a packet of sugar and put in her cup.

"I heard that you wanted to see me," Bobbie said. Courntey looked up and smiled.

"Yes I did," Courntey took a deep breath before she spoke.

"I was just wondering if you have any rooms available?"

To be continued.
