Author's Note: Okay I decided to make up for my absence by posting five chapters tonight. Therefore you're going to have to go back to the chapter labeled Chapter Six to get the first new chapter as well as an explanation for my absence.

Chapter 10:

"Well, what's wrong with her?" Jason asked. His concern was evident in his voice.

"Apparently when the ball hit her in the head," the doctor began. "It gave her a concussion. (Author's Note: I have never had a concussion nor do I know really know anything about concussions so I am probably totally wrong with anything medical.) She shouldn't lose consciousness again, but someone should be with her at all times. It is likely that she will feel either dizzy or nauseous on and off for the next twenty four hours. We're going to give her some medicine that should help as well as some samples to take home since the pharmacy is closed. She should be discharged within the hour, but you can see her now." With that said, the doctor walked away to tend to other patients.

After the doctor left, Jason, Sonny, and Carly headed towards Courtney. Figuring that Jason and Courtney should have some time alone, Sonny and Carly waited outside of Courtney's room while Jason went in.

"Hey," Jason said as he entered the room and walked towards the bed.

"Hey," Courtney replied dazedly.

"You gave me quite a scare there," Jason said as he took a seat and leaned in to kiss her.

"I'm sorry," Courtney said before he had the chance to kiss her.

"Don't worry about it. I'm just glad you're okay," Jason whispered with his lips a few inches from hers. His face hovered over hers for a few moments before he leaned all the way down and kissed her.

Once they broke apart, Courtney asked, "What are you doing here?"

"I missed you too much to stay away," Jason said. He figured he would leave out the part about Jax. That was something Courtney didn't need to know.

"I missed you too," Courtney said. They met in a passionate lip lock once again. Unfortunately Sonny and Carly chose that moment to enter the room, interrupting the kiss.

'Perfect timing,' both Jason and Courtney thought. The four of them talked in the room until Courtney was discharged.


When they got to the Corinthos home, Jason, Courtney, Sonny, and Carly went to living room to talk some more. Sonny sat in a love seat with Carly on the chair's arm while Jason and Courtney sat on the couch with Courtney leaning into Jason. The four of them talked for an hour and a half. All the while Jason silently wished that Sonny and Carly would leave so that he could have some time alone with Courtney before her parents got home from wherever they were. Meanwhile Courtney was getting irritated by all of them; two minutes couldn't pass by without someone asking her how she was feeling. After Courtney blew up at all of them, Sonny and Carly finally left.

Although she knew he meant well, Jason had gotten on Courtney's nerves as well. She knew he wouldn't be leaving especially since someone was supposed to be with her at all times, but she just wanted to get away from him, and she thought she had the perfect solution.

"After that volleyball game, I need a shower," Courtney said. "I'll see you when I get out."

"Not so fast," Jason replied.

"What do you mean?" Courtney asked confused.

"What happens if you get dizzy and fall?" Jason asked. His concern for her well-being was evident in his voice. "Someone should be in there with you to make sure you don't get hurt." He knew that part of his reason for offering was selfish as he loved the thought of being in the shower with her, but he really was worried that something could happen to her.

"Are you saying that the only way I'm allowed to take a shower, is if you join me?" Courtney asked obviously irritated. She was mad at him and wanted to shower to get away from him.

"Yes," he said as he moved towards her so that he could take her in his arms.

"What if my parents come home?" Courtney asked desperately trying to find a way out of having to shower with Jason.

"It's not like they don't know we're sleeping together," Jason said.

Flashback

Jason and Courtney were making love in Courtney's bed. Unaware that Janine was not only home, but standing in the hall outside her room, Courtney led out a loud moan. Curious as to what was going on in her daughter's room, Janine let herself in only to find her daughter and her daughter's boyfriend in bed together. She forced them apart and left them to get dressed. Afterwards, Janine kicked Jason out of the house.

When Jason was gone, an angry Janine turned towards Courtney. "You are never allowed to see Jason again," she barked.

End Flashback

"I'm just glad she let me see you again," Jason said as he kissed her lovingly and passionately. The kiss washed away all of Courtney's anger.

"Me too," Courtney replied as she took Jason's hand and the couple walked upstairs to take their shower.
