Chapter 2

The Next Day

Courtney had all of Megan's packed and ready to go. She settled her daughter into the car and turned to the girl's aunt.

"Thank you for helping Bill take care of her"

"Yeah. I'm gonna miss her"

"I'll bring her to visit once and a while"

"That's good. So are you ready to go face everybody in Port Charles"

"No. But I have to. I just hope Jason understands why I kept this from him."

"I'm sure he will. If he loves you like he says you do, then he should understand why you couldn't stay with her."

"Yeah. Well I better go then"

"See you later Courtney. Take care of Megan"

"I will. I love her. See you"

Courtney headed back to Port Charles with her daughter with her. She just hoped that Sonny, Carly, and especially Jason would understand why she did. She loved her daughter from the moment she found out about her.

Flashback

Courtney sat in her bathroom after throwing up for the third time that day. Things weren't really going good for the 19 year old. She just broke up with her boyfriend, Bill. She found out the she really didn't love Bill like her loved her and ended it. Courtney was interrupted by her mom knocking on the door.

"Courtney. I have the test you asked me for"

Courtney opened the door and took the pregnancy test from her mother. Bill's sister, Sandy, told her that her symptoms were signs of pregnancy. Courtney took her advice since she was a nurse. Courtney took the test as instructed.

"Ok. I have to wait five minutes. One line is not pregnant and two lines means pregnant"

After the five minutes were up, Courtney picked up the test

"Two lines. Oh my god, I'm pregnant. I'm going to have a baby. I can't believe it"

End flashback

Courtney looked at her daughter through the rearview mirror. She couldn't believe that she was taking her to Port Charles. She always planned on going back to Atlantic City to get her daughter, but when her daughter was born, she wasn't ready to be a mother

Flashback

Courtney sat in her hospital room after giving birth to her daughter, Megan Michelle Matthews. She decided to take her last name instead of Bill's. Bill walked in carrying Megan. She knew that he would be a good father.

"So are you ready to hold your daughter"

"Yeah" Bill placed Megan in Courtney's arm and she fell in love with her daughter. "She's so beautiful. So small"

"Yeah. She is. She's our responsibility now"

"But she's going to be living with you, not me. We already had this conversation Bill. Your better for her than I am. I can't take care of her like you can, but I can love her"

"I know. And you are always welcome to come see her. She's your daughter too Courtney"

"I know and I'll be around for her when she needs me. I'll always love her. She will always know that her mother loves her"

End Flashback

Courtney read the sign that said "Welcome To Port Charles" and knew that soon she would have to tell Jason that she had a daughter. She didn't know what to expect so she swung by the loft and got it together just in case she had to move back there. She pulled up in front and got her daughter out

"Mommy is this where you live"

"Yeah baby. This is where mommy live, but if my friend gets angry at me then we have to go back to the loft"

"Why will your friend get mad at you"

"Because mommy didn't tell him about you and he might not understand"

"I hope he does. This building is big"

"Yeah it is"

Courtney got on the elevator with Megan and rode it to the 25th floor. She stepped off and walked over to Max who was standing at the door.

"Hey Max. Is Jason in with Sonny. I need to see him"

"No he's in his penthouse. Whose this little one"

"This is Megan. She's a friend of mine. I want Jason to meet her"

"Well he's in his penthouse"

"Alright. Can you tell Sonny and Carly to come across the hall in a few minutes. "

"Sure"

Courtney walked into the penthouse and took off Megan's jacket. She sat Megan on the couch and called out for Jason.

"Jason. I need to see you"

Jason came walking down the stair and embraced Courtney

"Hey. I missed you. When did you just get in"

"Just now. I have someone I want you to meet"

Jason then noticed a little girl sitting on the couch. She had blond hair and blue eyes that looked exactly like Courtney. She looked like a younger version of Courtney. Jason sat next to the girl on the couch

"Hi. My name's Jason. What's yours"

"Megan"

"That's a pretty name"

Courtney saw this as a time to drop her news.

"Jason. This is Megan Michelle Matthews. My daughter.............."

What will Jason say about Megan???
