Johnny had made his way to Jason's after his outing with Anna, he need to talk to Jason about what he had done, he knew Anna would not be happy when she found out but hopefully it would be a while before she realized the deal he had struck.

He banged on the door of the penthouse and it took a minute for the door to open.

"Johnny." Jason nodded at him.

"Hey, got a minute to chat?" He asked the older man.

He nodded opening the door wider. "Come in."

As he walked in he noticed the penthouse looked different, it was missing things, the more feminine touches that had been kicking around. "Sam not home?"

Jason's jaw ticked. "Sam doesn't live here anymore."

Johnny whistled low. "That's interesting."

"What did you come here for?" The man asked changing the subject.

"Same thing I seem to be here for most days now, Anna." He replied.

Jason sighed and ran a had through his hair. "What about Anna?"

"She went to look at a apartment, I tagged along, might have made the realtor tell her the place was less and that you would be covering this difference." He said quickly.

"What? Why would you do that?" Not that Jason would cover the amount but way would Johnny make an agreement on his behalf.

"She loved the damn place, her face just lit up but it was way more then she can realistically be paying, it would have left her almost broke every month."

Jason nodded and walked over to the bar pouring a drink for himself and for Johnny, handing him one glass. "How much?"

Johnny was surprised he was taking it so well and took a swig of his drink. "Listed at 1100 a month told him to tell her it was 800."

Three hundred a month was nothing to him, hell he would have bought her a place if she had asked but after a conversation with Diane he knew she was not going to ask and probably wouldn't accept it if he did. "She's not going to be happy when she finds out."

"Yeah, no shit. She's stubborn, wonder where she gets that." Johnny said with a smile.

"I'll cover her." He told his associate.

ACROSS TOWN

Anna was sitting on the bed in her hotel him making a list of the things she needed for her new apartment, the essentials for now like a bed and things for the kitchen and bathroom the rest could wait. A knock on the door pulled her away from her note pad, she wasn't expecting anyone, she stood and moved to the door and opened it to see a older blonde woman.

"Umm, can I help you?" She asked the stranger.

Monica studied the girl in front of her long auburn hair framed her face and bright blue eyes stared back at her. "Anna Lenux?"

Anna's posture stiffened. "I am and who are you?"

The older woman smiled. "I'm Monica Quatermaine, your grandmother."

Anna had heard about Jason's relationship with his family and head stories about them from Ethan and Johnny a few nights ago.

"Oh." Was all Anna could say.

"I just wanted to talk to you, if that's alright."

"Ummm, sure I guess." Anna opened the door wider to let the woman in to the hotel room.

"Thank you." She smiled at the girl walking in to the room as she closed the door.

Anna crossed her arms and looked to the woman. "What do you want to talk about?"

"You're my granddaughter, I just wanted to get to know you." Monica replied and she looked at girl seeing the same eyes as her son.

Anna didn't know what to say, she knew Jason's relationship with them and Ethan had told her some about the back stabbing in the Quartermaine house. " My dad," As she said it she realized she never actually called Jason dad before that moment. " Jason doesn't talk to the Quartermaine's does he?"

Monica pressed her lips together and nodded. "He doesn't but you're not Jason, you don't have to not speak to us because he doesn't."

"Why doesn't he talk to the Quartermaine's." She knew why, Ethan had told her the story at Johnny's but she wanted to see if the woman would lie.

"We had a difference of opinion in regards to his choice of work." Monica answered smoothly.

"Lie." Anna said.

"Excuse me?" Monica's eyes were wide looking at the girl.

"That's a lie, the way I hear it is after his….accident you wanted him to be the same person he was but he couldn't be that person and you hated that he wasn't the same son as before." She told the woman, annoyed with the lies, this didn't even come from Jason but she figured it was more of the truth.

"I don't hate my son!" Monica said firmly. "My son was pulled in to a life of crime by Sonny, " She spat the name. "and we disagreed on it but I love my son."

"I think you should go." Her voice was soft but firm as she opened the hotel room door.

"He may have told you that but I do love him and I want to know you." Monica's voice bordered on desperation.

Anna laughed humorlessly. "He didn't tell me a thing." She gestured to the door. "Please leave."
