Title: Studio Love

Chapter 9

(Elizabeth stood there in shock! Why did Carly, of all people, come to her rescue? Then she thought about it hard… Jason. Carly and Elizabeth have never really gotten along but they both cared for Jason, even though Elizabeth thinks he is better off without her)

Sarah: (spits) "You bitch."

(Sarah couldn't help but hold her now red cheek while Carly spoke)

Carly: "No, you are the bitch. I have done some pretty low things, but sleeping with my sister's boyfriend? I have surprisingly not done."

(Lucky was still thinking about Elizabeth sleeping with Jason and Elizabeth was wondering why Carly was here)

Sarah: (confused) "Why do you care? I thought you hated Lizzie."

(Sarah smirked when she came to a realization)

Sarah: "Oh, I see. You're here because of Jason. Let me guess, you found out what they did and wanted to get a piece of Lizzie yourself. By all means, have at it. Just please, let me watch-."

(Sarah was cut off by another slap by Carly)

Carly: "For your information sweetheart, I don't hate Elizabeth as much as you think. Now, she is a little muffin to me, but Jason had taken a liking to her and Jason doesn't give up that easily. Now I just wanted to pick up Elizabeth after her shift so we can go shopping."

(Everyone's jaw dropped to the floor. What? People were shocked, to say the least)

Sarah: "Wait? You want to hang out with her? Why?"

(Sarah started to panic. Everything is not going to her plan. She was hoping Carly would join her in hating Lizzie, not help her)

Carly: "Yes, you see, I overheard what you said about Jason walking out on whatever they were doing last night and you should know it is none of your business what they are doing."

(Carly looked over at Elizabeth)

Carly: "Bobbie said you could close up early. We can go shopping tomorrow but I would like to talk to you with dumb and dumber here." (pointing to Sarah and Lucky)

(Elizabeth just nodded her head. All the customers seemed to leave, just leaving money on the table. Lucky was having to push a furious Sarah out of the diner. Elizabeth was still processing what was going on. Why was Carly defending her all of the sudden? Elizabeth didn't understand)

Carly: "Look, Elizabeth, I don't know everything that went down with you and Jason last night. I do know that Jason probably had to buy a new TV because he broke his last one. Now, I don't know why you keep pushing him away. But, it is hurting him. He really likes you Elizabeth, probably even loves you. Just go and talk to him Elizabeth. He could help you."

(Carly then turned around and left the diner. Elizabeth just stood there in shock. What was she going to do now? Elizabeth needed to think quick)

(Jason was sitting at his desk reading over Elizabeth's file. How could a human being do this to a fifteen-year-old girl? He feels bad reading over this without her permission but also needs to get his hands on the guy that did this to her. The case was never solved so he is still out there. He has already broken into glasses but when the guard came through saying he had a visitor. He thought it was just Carly. When Elizabeth walked through the door, his heart stopped)

Liz: "Jason, I think I owe you an explanation."

(Jason looks at her and knows she is having a battle with her thoughts. She looks around and notices the file on his desk. She walks over and picks it up)

Liz: (mumbles under her breath) "Figures."

Jason: "Look Elizabeth-."

(Jason was cut off when Elizabeth put her hand up signaling him to stop)

Liz: "Don't. I figured you would want to see it. Why, I don't know, but I don't care. I honestly thought I put all that away. I really wanted to be with you last night. I have never felt that way before. I just woke up and memories and flashes kept coming back to me and I had no control over any of it."

(Elizabeth couldn't help her heavy breathing as she spoke)

Liz: "I know you think that maybe it was your fault and it's not. It is mine. I should have told you ages ago, but I never did because I never wanted you to see me differently. I never wanted your pity and I just wanted us to be…us. I know I have probably ruined that now. I understand that." (chuckles nervously) "You deserve a lot better than me. Someone who isn't broken and damaged and-."

(Elizabeth went back to her rambling. Jason had to stop this so he went up to her and cupped her face and kissed her softly but with tons of passion. How could she feel that way about herself? Doesn't she know the way she makes him feel? He slowly pulled back to see her beautiful eyes and looked right into them)

Jason: "If I ever hear you say you are broken and damaged again, I will go mad. Don't you see how beautiful you are? You had something horrible and inhumane happen to you and I will not let you put yourself down because of it. I am to blame for last night. I should have stopped, it was too soon either way. I don't want you to run from me, Elizabeth. I'll chase after you and run to the ends of the Earth for you."

Liz: "Jason, I wanted last night. I needed last night because you showed me how it is supposed to be. I lied and said I have had sex because I didn't want you to think less of me. I have had it and it was horrible for me. I didn't want to feel scared of it forever so I wanted it to be with you. I needed it to be with you because you have always been my safe place."

(Her hands were on Jason's hips and his were still cupping her face)

Jason: "That wasn't sex, Elizabeth. Someone forcing themselves on you isn't sex. I want to show you the many ways of having true sex and making love and I will. I will show you in every square inch of this penthouse, if you would let me. I will always be your safe place, like you are mine. You just have to let me."

(That last sentence Jason whispered in a husky voice in her ear. It sent shivers down her back and straight to her core)

Liz: (whispers) "Jason…"

(Elizabeth feels his hands move down from her face to her hips. Rubbing circles on her back with his fingers.

Jason: "Tell me what you need, Elizabeth. I will do anything you want."

(That was when she knew she needed him just as much as he needed her. Elizabeth's response was circling her arms around his neck and kissing him roughly. His hands went straight to her ass lifting her up and pushing her near the wall. This part of his house wasn't soundproof so he was glad that he sent his guard home because Elizabeth let out the sexiest moan he has ever heard and he wanted to be the only one to hear it)

(He was kissing her furiously. His mouth and hers moved in sync with each other. They only removed when they were getting dizzy from the lack of oxygen. Jason didn't take long though to put his mouth back to work and attacking her neck. Elizabeth's hands were in his hair and she was letting out moans that only made his cock twitch and tighten in his jeans more. He knew that he would soon be taking her on this wall and he didn't want that to be how it happens again so he picked her up and walked towards the stairs. Their mouths were back together again as he made his way up and into his room. Elizabeth has never been in his room before so when he placed her down on the bed and looked into her eyes, she notices how the room was so…Jason. Dark, simple, but also edgy and soft. She loved it)

Jason: "Elizabeth, you need to tell me now if you need to stop. I can't wake up in the morning to see you gone or crying again. I can wait if that is what you need but I have to know."

(Jason couldn't hurt her again. He'd never forgive himself)

Liz: (tearfully) "Jason, I want you so bad. I just…I don't want to disappoint you. There will be times that I just break down crying over it and I can't control it. I will want to have days where I want to be alone. I can't ask you to put up with that."

Jason: (tenderly) "I will never leave you for that reason, Elizabeth. I love you. I have loved you since you helped me when I was shot laying in the snow. I will always be here. I will understand if you don't want to have sex some nights or need to be alone. If you are crying, I will hold you until you stop. I will always be here. There will be times, though, I need to leave for work. I know my job isn't perfect and most people don't want to be involved in that. I need to know if that you can do this, Elizabeth. Because once I have you, I don't think I can ever let you go."

Liz: "I don't care about your job and you know that. I love you, too. I have for a long time. I need to know if I will be enough for you because I don't think I can survive without you."

Jason: (smiles & whispers) "You are more than I deserve."

Liz: "No, you are more than I deserve."

(With their mouths dangerously close to the other, he speaks)

Jason: "We deserve each other then."

Liz: (smiles) "Yeah, I think we do."

(Elizabeth then closes the gap and they seal the deal of their relationship)
