Courtney looked down. "Jason, I know that we ended badly and there was a lot of hurt and anger between us but that doesn't mean that I don't still care about you or that I would ever let you down when you needed me. And I'm hoping that that we can start to repair our relationship." Jason didn't know what came over him but before he knew what he was doing he grabbed Courtney's waist and pulled her to him, his lips crashing down onto hers. Courtney kissed him back with everything she had. They pulled back and Jason rested his forehead against hers.
"I never should have let you go. You'll pulled through for me and been there for me when I needed you the most. I haven't done the same for you but from now on I'm going to be around for you. Our relationship may not have been perfect but it was everything I ever needed. You are everything I've ever needed." Courtney felt tears coming to her eyes. She cupped his face and looked at him lovingly. "Oh Jason, I never gave up hope that we would find our way back to each other. I never stopped loving you." They kissed again, this time sensually, silently telling each other everything that words never could.
Sam stepped off the elevator and made her way to Audrey's room. She rounded the corner and felt her heart stop. There was Jason, the love of her life, kissing Courtney, the love of his. She always had a feeling this day would come but it didn't make the pain any less. She looked around the hospital before turning around and getting back onto the elevator. She didn't know what she was going to do but she did know that she wasn't letting Jason go easily.
Jason and Courtney pulled away from each other. "I never stopped loving you either." Courtney smiled. That smile made his heart melt. "Okay, now I really don't want to leave but I have a meeting for my foundation. When will I see you again?" Jason thought for a moment. "I don't know. I have to talk to Sam and get Audrey settled. I…" Courtney cut him off. "Do you still love Sam?" "No. I didn't know that I could fall out of love with someone so quickly. Because I never fell out of love with you. But when Audrey was gone and she didn't even care, everything changed for me. And then there was you, who kept showing up just when I needed you. I realized then that Sam was never a comparison to you and if I could have you back, then I would in a heart beat." Jason pulled Courtney into a hug. "I'll see you as soon as I can. I promise." "Okay, bye Jason." She kissed him on the cheek and left.
Jason stood there watching her until she disappeared before turning and walking back into Audrey's room. Audrey smiled widely when Jason walked in the room. "How are things with you and Courtney?" Jason smiled. Even though they may not have spent much time together, Audrey was just like Carly. Only he wanted to be honest with Audrey and let her in on his personal life. "Better than they've been in a couple years. I've really missed her." If it was possible Jason thought that Audrey's smile grew even wider. "Oh, so do I sense a second wedding?" "Don't get ahead of yourself. We're working on it."
Audrey clapped her hands together. "Yay! I finally get to witness the great love that is Jason and Courtney. And you're finally coming to your senses about Sam." "Yeah, yeah, you should focus less on my love and life and more on…" "My own." Jason was surprised. "No, that's not what I was going to say. I was going to say getting better. What love life are you talking about?" Audrey took in a deep breath and tried to sort through her thoughts. Jason sensed that this was important so he took a seat and let her take her time. "Dad, there's something I need to tell you." "What is it?" "I uh, something happened when I was in that cellar." Jason started to get worried. "What? What happened are you…" "I'm fine. I just…" Before she could tell him about Noah, Sonny knocked on the door.
Audrey cursed under her breath and looked up at Sonny. "Hey. It's good to see you're okay." Audrey smiled. "Hey, Sonny. Thank you for the flowers. I love them." "Yeah, well, you needed something to brighten up this room." "Did you come to steal my dad away?" Sonny chuckled. "No, actually I came to see you. And Noah." Jason turned his attentions towards Jason. "Jason, have you seen him yet?" "Just for a second." "Well, why don't you go talk to him? I'll stay with Audrey." Jason nodded and walked out of the room. Sonny took the seat that Jason was occupying. "So, how are you feeling?" "Good. A little antsy. I want to go home." Sonny nodded. "I know. It won't be long now." Audrey bit her bottom lip and looked over at Sonny. "Sonny, can I talk to you about something?" "Of course." She sat up in her bed. "Something happened in that cellar. Something between me and Noah." Sonny knew that was going to happen. He also knew where Jason stood on that issue.
"I care about him, Sonny. There's been something between us since we first looked into each other's eyes." Sonny finished her thoughts. "But Jason doesn't want you to be together." "Exactly. And I love my father and I want a relationship with him but I'm not going to let him run my personal life. I want to be with Noah." Sonny laughed. He knew this situation all too well. Audrey didn't know what was so funny. "What?" "This is all too familiar." "How so?" "When your father started dating my sister I flipped out. I hated the idea of Courtney being in this life. I made Jason break my sister's heart. They didn't stay apart long. When they got back together I considered it the ultimate betrayal. But eventually I saw how much they loved each other and how good they were together and I gave them my blessing. But me and Courtney were on the outs for a long time. She fought me tooth and nail to be with Jason." Audrey took all this information in. So her father was being a hypocrite? If he knew how she felt then why wouldn't he let her be with Noah? Sonny brought her out of her thoughts. "Have you told him yet?" Audrey shook her head. "No." "You need to tell him and if he doesn't agree with it, I'll talk to him." "Thank you, Sonny." "You're welcome." Just then Jason walked back into the room. "I should get going." "Bye, Sonny. And thank you again." "Don't mention it."
Jason walked further into the room and stood at the foot of her bed. "What are you thanking Sonny for?" Audrey took a deep breath and blew it out. "Dad, you need to sit down. There's something I need to tell you about me and Noah."
