American Honey

Chapter 5

"It's just a bit further." Sam assured as she led the man down the dirt road.

"Should I be worried? I mean wondering down a dirt road in the middle of nowhere, you are not going to kill me right." Jason joked as he followed the women down the road, which lead to a a sandy path.

"Like that could even happen, you tower over me." Sam laughed, "If anyone should be worried it should be me. A stranger in town, perfect cover, met me in a bar, now we are all alone on a dark back road. Sounds like the perfect horror movie." Sam rambled as she turned to face the man.

"Don't worry, I am not a killer. The complete opposite actually, I am a doctor or atleast I am going to be." Jason smirked as he placed an arm around Sam.

"Medical school? Huh, that's pretty impressive." Sam commented as they walked further down the beach until they reached the small cove, "This is my favorite place, I always come here to clear my mind or when I need a little piece and quite." She explained as she took a seat, "So, Dr. Morgan did you always want to be a doctor?" Sam asked as the man sat next to her.

"I would much rather spend my time traveling than be in a stuffy hospital." Jason muttered as he looked out on the water.

"Than why are you in medical school?" Sam asked confused.

"It's what my parents always wanted for me and I feel it's the least I can do for them. When I was sixteen, I was in accident and I lost my memory, that is how I met Sonny and Carly, I went to a really dark place, I shut my family out and did a lot of horrible things." Jason started as Sam placed a hand on Jason's, "Anyway, it wasn't until the my father got sick that I realized I needed to get my life on track."He finished.

"So you are going to medical school because you think you owe it to your parents?" Sam asked as she turned to face him, "Jason, you can't live your life for other people believe me I have tried. It will not make you happy. Your parents will be proud of you no matter what, you don't owe them anything." Sam said as she tried to comfort the man, which just caused Jason to stare at her, "What?" She asked.

"I don't understand how I can be this open with someone I just met and how you know just what I need to hear." Jason said after a moment.

"Maybe it's not meant for you to understand." Sam countered as she leaned into him and gave him a kiss, it didn't take too long for Jason to respond, he quickly pulled her onto him lap.

"You are really spoiling me." Emily smiled as she grabbed a piece of cotton candy, "First winning me the stuffed animals and now buying me dessert. You should be careful I might start thinking this is a date." Emily added as she sat down at a picnic table.

"Would that be so bad?" Nikolas asked with a smirk as he grabbed the cotton candy from her.

"No, it's just not what I expected when I went on this trip. I thought it would be my one last chance at fun before I start school, but it has turned out to be so much more." Emily mused as she glanced at Nikolas.

"Well I am happy your car broke down here." Nik said as he leaned across the table.

"I am starting to feel the same" Emily smiled as she leaned closer to Nikolas.

Jason smirked as he pulled away from Sam, "So I basically told you my life story, so what about you?" He asked as he gave her one more quick kiss.

"Me? I am just your normal small town girl, went to a community college for three years, found it way to boring, now I am working at the marina trying to figure out what I want to do with the rest of my life." Sam explained as she leaned into kiss him.

"Well, what do you want to-do?" Jason asked as she smirked down at the women.

"Well, I have this stupid idea, there is an old abandon bar at the other end of the beach and I have always been in love with it. I actually put a payment down on it." Sam mused as she looked away from him.

"That is not a stupid idea, I think it is a great idea and I think you should go for it. Have you talked to anyone about this?"

"Only Nikolas. It's kind of a joint dream, I would run it and Nik would handle all the finance and business aspect of it. Put that education to work." Sam laughed, "Do you wanna see it?" Sam asked with a smile.

"Sure." Jason answered as he stood and than offered Sam a hand.
