Chapter 12
"I'm here to arrest Jason, for the murder of Sam McCall." Durant said, with a smug grin on his face.
Courtney just stood there, not even able to believe the words he just said. "Are you out of your fucking mind Durant? Jason has been shot, and has been unconscious for god know's how long? And you're telling me that he killed Sam!" Courtney yelled incredeously.
"Look, Courtney, I'm just doing my job. And my job is to arrest Jason-"
"Bull-shit! There's no way in fucking hell that you are going to arrest him!" Courtney yelled in anger.
"Well, hopefully for him, that bullet went a little too far into his head, and he won't wake up-" SLAP! Durant was cut off by Courtney's hand slapping him hard across the face, which sent him back a little. He brought his hand up to the stinging of his right cheek, and groaned a little.
"Oh I'm sorry did I hit a nerve." He said sarcasticly, as he rubbed his cheek, which was still stinging with pain.
"Oh, you're going to be hitting a hell of a lot more if you say one more word about Jason, like, for instance, the fucking wall!" Courtney warned.
"Okay, Mr. Durant, as you can see, Jason is not awake, nor is he responding, so you need to leave right now, because you are not family to Jason, and you are certainly not making things better, so seeing as you can do absolutely nothing, get the hell out!" Monica yelled to the spiteful DA. God, how she despised that man. How dare he talk about her son like that! She knew if Courtney didn't hit him, then she would've.
"Fine, but as soon as he is awake, you can count me being here, with a warrant, for his arrest.He said, before walking off.
Courtney just looked after him, and shook her head. No way Jason could've done this! Obviously someone else had, but who? Well, she just couldn't think about it right now. All that mattered was Jason getting better, so that they could prove him innocent.
Meanwhile...
Over in the Bahamas, Jax had been sipping champagne, while looking out over the ocean on the back of his balcony, which belonged to his new mansion. He knew Courtney would love it here, and pretty soon, she would be with him again, and they would enjoy it here. He'd make her fall in love with him, and they will live together, and be happily married again. He would see to it, he thought to himself, as a sick smirk crossed his face.
Carly and Sonny were awake and about to go see Jason. Carly was so fixated on doing her hair, and was doing everything possible to avoid the trip to the hospital. She hated seeing the painful look on her best friend's face, and she hated seeing Jason hooked up to so many god damn machines, and it was all just... to much. Carly was always strong, and she always thought of herself as independant, but now without Jason, she saw just how needy she was. She didn't realize how much she needed Jason, and how much she depended on him. She just wanted everything to go back to the way it was. Courtney and Jason, happy, and together, and in love. Not with Jason in a hospital bed, fighting for his life, and Courtney breaking down with each passing day. Sonny told her about what happened to her, and she almost broke down in tears herself. This woman was raped, and now the love of her life is in a hospital fighting for his life, and she is about to break. With all these thoughts going through Carly's head, she threw down everything, and got up. She was not going to let her best friend go through this alone. She wasn't going to give up on Jason, and she was going to help him fight. She was not going to let Courtney end up being alone after everything they've been throught together. It wasn't going to end like this. So, with that final thought, she got up, and her and Sonny left for the hospital.
Courtney had been asleep for some time, and she didn't even realize where she was when she woke up, because she wasn't in the hospital anymore...
She was at the beach, and she looked around, and she felt the sand underneath her, and her hair blowing in the light wind. She looked down, and saw that she was in a white tank top, with blue shorts on, and her feet were underneath the sand. She leaned back, and instead of hitting sand... she hit a hard chest.She looked up, and was shocked to see Jason staring back at her, with his blue eyes shining, looked down at her.
"Jason, what-"
"Shh.. It was about time you woke up." He said as he smiled. She smiled back, obviously still in shock. It was Jason, her Jason sitting there with her, smiling back at her. It felt so good for him to smile back at her.
But then, the smile faded, and they weren't at the beach anymore, and they were in an alley, and it was raining hard, and Courtney realized where they were at.
"Jason I'm-"
"Don't!" Jason yelled in anger, as she watched his blue eyes turned cold, colder than she's ever seen before.
"Jason, please! I'm sorry!" Courtney screamed as she let her tears fall.
"Sorry isn't going to help you now Courtney. You need to face what you've done. This is all your fault!" Jason yelled at a crying Courtney.
"Jason no! I didn't mean to! I'm sorry!" She screamed.
"YOU DID THIS! You are the reason I'm in there now!" He screamed at her. "It's all your fault." He said again, before turning and walking away.
"No, Jason please! Don't go!" She screamed before running up to him, grabbing his arm and turning him around. Only when she did, it wasn't Jason anymore.
"Hey baby." He said in a smug voice. "Couldn't get enough of me last time." Jax said with a sick grin. HE grabbed her and threw her against the wall, while all she could do was scream.
"No!"
"No!" Courtney screamed, as she woke with a jump. She was breathing hard, and sweating. No, this wasn't happening to her! Come on Courtney, grow up, it was just a dream. It was just a dream...
Then why did it feel so real...She thought.
She saw the look on Jason's face. She'll never forget it. The pain, the anger, the hurt, the...betrayal. She couldn't deal with seeing that look on his face when he woke up. If he ever woke up. No, he was going to wake up, and they were going to be happy. But that look. That look on his face, and the look in his eyes said it all. She was dirty, and she would always be dirty to him.
Courtney shook her head. She couldn't deal with this anymore. The nightmares, the fear, the look on his face, the disgust. She felt dirty, and all of sudden, she felt raw. Like she was naked, and everyone could see her, and what she did. She couldn't take it anymore, she needed air, she needed to get out of here. She looked at Jason's comatose state again, and just ran. She ran out of the room, and ran past everyone she passed, including Sonny and Carly, who were coming to check on Jason.
"Courtney, where are you going-" Carly started to say, noticing Courtney's frantic state.
"I have to- I have to get out of here." She said, the need for air clearly apparant. Any onlookers might of thought she was going crazy.
"Courtney, calm down." Sonny said, trying to get his sister under control, which really seemed like a lost cause right now.
"No, I have to get away. I-I can't be here." She said, as she struggled to breath, and kept pushing the button for the elavator.
"Courtney, no. You shouldn't be out alone right now, you could get hurt-"
"Or what! Huh, raped! Huh! Oh, I'm sorry that's already happened, hasn't it!" She screamed.
Everyone was looking at her like she was crazy, while Sonny and Carly tried to get her under control. She couldn't take it anymore, and once the elavator doors opened, she got in, and immediatly pressed the down button, but before the doors could close, Sonny ran in, and tried to get her under control, as the elavator continued down.
"Courtney, come on. You need to calm down, you need to breath." Sonny said, as she watched his sister breakdown before his very eyes.
"No, Sonny! Get off me!" She said as she struggled to get out of her brother's grasp.
"Courtney please!" Sonny begged, as the doors opened to the first floor. Courtney eyed the hospital doors, and slipped out of Sonny's grasp, and ran out the door. Sonny chased after her, while she ran, and ran right into the street.
"Courtney!" Sonny yelled.
She turned around when she heard the screech of a car, and flet herself being slammed into the ground.
"No!" Sonny screamed, as he watched his sister roll on the street. He ran after her, as the car sped off. He leaned down, and checked her breathing.
"No..." Sonny whispered.
Carly was sitting by Jason's bedside, and was talking to him. She wanted him to wake up but not for her, for Courtney. She was breaking, and the only person who could bring her back was Jason. She watched his monitors bbep constantainously, and just sighed.
"Come on Jason. You know you don't want this to be your life. You don't want to be stuck in this bed the rest of your life. You have so much to do in your life. You have to get out of this bed, and marry Courtney, and you guys have to have beautiful kids, and get all old and gray. And you and Courtney have to spend the rest of your lives together. Come on Jason you can beat this. I know you can. And if not for yourself, do it for Courtney. Becasue she needs you. She needs you now more than anything else. Please Jason, just wake up." Carly said, as she let her tears fall freely. She wiped them away, and just layed her head down on Jason arm. She felt something move underneath her, and just stopped breathing for a minute. She looked up, and saw Jason move his arm.
"Come on Jason." Carly urged him.
And finally, his eyes fluttered open, and all Carly could do was cry. She was so happy, that she just started to cry histarically. "Oh my god, Jason!" She cried, as she reached down, and gave him a hug. He blinked, and returend the hug gratefully. He looked around, and didn't see the one person the truly wanted to see.
"Where-" He struggled to breathe.
"I'm going to get a docter Jason, hold on." Carly said, as she turned around, but was felt his hand grasp her arm.
"Where is she?" He breathed out. "Where's my Courtney?" He breathed out.
