Chapter 13


Coming back in from outside Sam walked through the house not finding Jason anywhere. She couldn't imagine that just this little blip of a disagreement would prompt him to leave. What had she said? She was concerned that maybe there was more to the story than she already knew. Looking at the clock it was getting to be around midnight. Maybe he just needed to clear his head and have some time away to think. He would probably be home before she knew it.Walking to the front door she locked it and turned on the alarm. He had a key and new how to disable the alarm. Looking upwards she made her way to her bedroom. Cleaning up her face and brushing her teeth she changed her clothes and got into bed.

The morning sun glared in her bedroom window. Turning over she put out her arm and called Jason's name out loud. Then she remembered about last night.

Glancing around to her end table she saw that it was only 6:30 a.m. Getting up she decided to call him. Picking up the phone she dialed the number. It began to ring…..

" Hello?" said a female voice.

Sam was caught off guard.

" Yes, Is Jason there?"

" Who is asking? I demand to know who this is?" Said the female on the other end of the line.

Sam hung up the phone. Her hand shaking she set the phone down. Determined to know who that was she got dressed and got into the car. Backing out of the garage she headed out of her drive way and onto the road and drove the short distance to Jason's apartment. Parking her car alongside the curb she got out and walked up the stairs to his apartment. Knocking on the door she waited. .. No answer. She knocked again. Just as she turned around to leave a woman with only a towel wrapped around her opened the door.

" Don't tell me that you are the mysterious caller this morning. " She sneered.

" Yeah, I am. Who are you?"

" Courtney, Jason and I have been together for quite some time now. Let me guess you are the chick that lives down on the beach? His most recent flavor-of-the-month? Believe me you mean nothing to him. You didn't actually didn'tthink you were the only woman in his life did you? He has girlfriends everywhere." She said in a sarcastic tone.

Just then she heard his voice.

" Courtney! Who are you talking to?" He said.

" Come and see."

He came over to the door and saw Sam standing there. Sam looked into his eyes as if to say " how could you?" then turned and headed down the stairs.

" Sam!" He yelled running down the stairs after her.

Sam reached for her keys and was just about to open the door to the car when he caught up with her.

" It's not what you think."

" It's not? You know I have been so stupid to even think that you could love me Jason. It was to perfect, you were perfect." Sam said.

" Nothing happened Sam. I swear." Jason pleaded with her

" I don't believe you Jason. Im sorry, I just can't do this."

Turning to get into the car he put his arm out to stop her." Don't do this. I love you with all my heart." Jason said.

" Let me go." She said moving his arm.

" I will prove my love to you."

" Well that will be a cold day in hell because we are through." She said through her tears.

He watched her go with a tear in his eye. No matter what he wasn't going to give up. Looking up at Courtney she was laughing hysterically.

" Get out of here now!" He yelled at Courtney grabbing her stuff and tossing it out the front door.

It was all she could do to get home quickly. She knew that it wouldn't be long before he was on her heels. She couldn't stay in a house that reminded her of him. Grabbing some belongings she threw them in a suitcase and took a last look around her house before leaving not knowing exactly where she would end up. Turning on the alarm and turning out the lights she locked the door behind her
