Sonny looked hard at Jason from across his seat on the jet plane, he was afraid to know what was running through his best friends mind. Jason had been staring hard at the freshly vacuumed grey carpet beneath his feet for the past half hour, not moving... not even letting a word escape his mouth. He was bent over on his seat, with his hands burying his face, you didn't have to look at Jason to know that he was upset, you could feel the tension surrounding him.

"Jase...are you...are you going to be alright?" Sonny asked from his seat

Jason could hear the wariness within Sonny's voice, he didn't like it...his chest heaved with anger, adrenaline started rushing through his veins he gripped his head tightly. "How am I suppose to be alright?" He shot his head up at gave Sonny a cold stare. "My life started going down hill and it started when I left Courtney...I pushed the divorce papers in her face...she didn't want to sign...but I was the first to hit my pen on that paper I put my name: Jason Morgan ...I broke her heart...AGAIN...AGAIN! SONNY...I'M TIRED OF DOING IT!"

"WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU'RE TIRED OF DOING IT" Sonny took a breath to calm himself down. He knew that needed to have this conversation with Jason, his best friend was bottling so many emotions and situations inside of him, Sonny knew that Jason just needed to talk right now. So he encouraged him. "I waiting to hear this Jason"

Jason's throat started to close on him, how could he ever forget those glossy blue eyes staring at him, her soft but pleading voice begging him not to sign the papers, her sobbing on the other side of the door when he slammed it in her face. How could Jason ever forget the day he tore Courtney's heart in two, his life in two. "I-I broke her heart so many times Sonny, I don't want to do it again."

Sonny continued staring hard at Jason. "What do mean Jason? Are you saying that if you have a chance with Courtney, you won't take it because you don't want to hurt her again?"

Jason looked back down at the ground, he took a deep breath "What I'm saying is I don't want to keep hurting Courtney, I can't keep pushing her away then pulling her back to me. Its just too hard for the both of us, it hurts not only just her, but me too. We have a lot of memories together that will stay with us, but those were just memories... we can't play those roles anymore."

"But I thought you said that if you had a chance with Courtney you will take it, and never let it pass you by." Sonny's kept his gaze locked at Jason's figure. "You're right about not replaying memories, but there's always a thing called working it out. Making the relationship better, fixing problems before they start to happen."

"Courtney moved on with Jax...maybe she's happy with him"

"You don't know that Jason, from what I heard from Greg she wasn't asking for Jax...she was asking for you."

Jason turned towards Sonny, for a moment he couldn't speak, he just stared. After a few moments of heavy silence, Jason slowly turned his head away. "I know she did... I just don't want to hurt her like I did before Sonny...I don't think I could take it if I ever see her crushed like that again. I'm just trying to think what's best for Courtney."

"Well this going to sound different coming from me, I might-" Sonny chuckled "I might even sound like Carly when I say this, but maybe you should let Courtney decide what's best for her. That was my mistake Jason, I wanted to play the role of a big brother for her, I made decisions for her...she's a grown woman but I just found it hard to accept." Sonny looked at Jason hard in the eyes. "You need to let Courtney decide for herself what she wants."

Jason could only nod his head in agreement with Sonny's words. He had to admit to himself that he was a little surprised at Sonny's piece of advice, but knew where Sonny was coming from when he said this. Sonny had made decisions for Courtney that Courtney just wouldn't accept. They got into countless of arguments, said their share of sharp piercing words at one other. His thoughts were interrupted by a heavy bump of the jet. The hurricane had ended, throughout their ride was a smooth flight this could only mean one thing. They had landed. Jason and Sonny looked at each other. Jason quickly stood up from is spot on the seat. "Let's go."

Her heart started to race, panic filled her veins. "He is really going to do this, "was all she could muster we she looked at her reflection, and saw the markings.

It was lightly pin marked on her with blue dots along her forehead; some were spotted on the corner of her jaw. These markings represents which piece of her skin would be removed….and replaced. She lightly touched the dot on her jaw, she gently rubbed it. Tears slowly cascaded down her cheeks; A.J was really taking her away from the world. He was going to get rid of this God created face, and replace it with a hand made face. She let out an angry sob and through her fist hard against the mirror continuously.

She couldn't feel anything as she kept slapping her hands hard against the mirror, she was aching too much inside... to focus on the damage that she was doing to herself physically. She didn't know when she felt it, maybe it was when she stopped crying, or maybe it was when she pulled herself to the ground. When she saw it, that's when the pain over flowed through her. Her hands were covered with her own blood, glass pieces were scattered all around her, and she felt herself trembling, as she let out another uncontrollable sob.

She didn't hear the door open, she was too upset to hear or see anything. She leaned her head against the cold wall and continued sobbing; she sucked in a breath when she felt his hands press her shoulders firmly.

"You can stop crying now," The voice said, "Today it all ends."

Her eyes grew big when she turned towards the voice.

"No..." she gently whispered "No... You're not going to touch me...you're not going to do this." she said more firmly "I won't let you, and neither will Jason"

A.J chuckled at her last remark. "So you still think Golden Boy going to save you aye? Sorry honey but not this time. You're knight in shiny armor doesn't have a clue where you are, or...that I'm still alive."

"Jason will find out about you, and when he does find out that you're still alive, and he sees what you are doing to me...oh he will make you pay A.J" She picked herself off the ground and stood right in front of him. "He hasn't forgotten about how you stalked me or how you treated me like crap when I worked as a stripper to help you stay out of jail, but most of all A.J he hasn't forgotten the type of person you are...a twisted sicko." She paused for a moment to let her words go through A.J

"Jason will get you A.J...he always does, and when he sees what you have done to me he's going to make sure you die a slow and painful death."\

"Jason doesn't care for you anymore Courtney, he divorced you and then he left you for Sam, and when Sam was pregnant with Sonny's baby what did he do huh? He lied to everyone including you...Courtney that woman that he claimed to have really cared about, and said that it was his baby when it wasn't. When she lost the baby, he stayed with her, why? Because Courtney...he moved on to someone better than you...your just trash to Jason now."

Before Courtney could think about what she was doing it was too late. Her hand swung and hit A.J hard across the face; a look of shock came across his face but was replaced by anger. "You bitch..." He grabbed her roughly on the shoulders and through her hard against the wall. She winced in pain, as she felt his fist drive deep into her skin.

Courtney let out a strangled cry as she felt the Sharpe pain of his blows against her. Tears clouded her vision...she was too weak to fight back... Her hands were still aching from the effects of the mirror. She gasped for air as she felt the inside of her skin burn; she felt her body slowly slide to the ground. She was shaking slightly when the blows stopped; she gently curled herself in a ball, and softly cried.

A.J looked down at her, and then headed out of the room quickly. His mind was set on one thing. Getting Courtney's surgery done. He went to the main desk where Dr.Thomas, and a few of the gurney man were waiting for him to prepare to the surgery. A.J looked at Dr.Thomas, "Let's get this done now."

The Doctor looked at A.J and studied him for a moment, "Are you sure you want to continue with this? I mean once we get started and this is done...there's no going back."

A.J nodded "Yeah I know I was aware of that when I made my plan on this in the first place." He ran his hands trough is light brown hair to clam himself down. "Let's just do this now."

"Alright…….will get the stretcher ready now."

Oh boy…….Time is running out for Courtney, Is this end of the Journey for her? Or will Jason make it in time to save her…..Before its too late? Next chapter coming soon!
