Chapter Five

"What is this Courtney?" Jason demanded. His voice full of anger and disgust.

"I know you want me Jason. I see how you look at me. Its okay I'm not mad. I want you too." Courtney purred as she caressed her body gently.

"You're dating AJ." Jason mumbled as he tried to keep from tossing his cookies.

"So? He's not you. I want to be with you. I love you. And I know you feel the same way." she purred as she stroked her breast.

"No. I'm with Elizabeth. She's who I want to be with." Jason responded shaking his head.

"I know you think that but it's not true. Did she give you my present?" Courtney taunted.

"You did that on purpose? What the hell is the matter with you?" Jason yelled as his anger intensified knowing that he could have lost Elizabeth because he had just blindly went and guarded Courtney with no consideration to what Elizabeth might think or feel about it. He always had to please Sonny, just blindly do what Sonny said no matter what it might cost him. Well, not anymore.

"I just wanted her to know that we're together." Courtney whined as she looked at Jason with a pout.

"You keep saying that but... Have you been telling Elizabeth that?" Jason demanded finally understanding for the first time all day what Elizabeth had been through because of Courtney.

"Of course. I wasn't going to let her act like she was better than me." she replied as though she couldn't believe that Jason would dare question her.

"I don't want you Courtney. How could you think that?" Jason rasped angrily.

"You love me I know you do. You're always here. Every time I call you coming running." Courtney declared as she moved her hand between her legs.

"Because it's my job. I don't want you. I could never want you." Jason spat with disgust.

"Don't tell me you want Elizabeth? She could never please you. We could be so good together. I could do things to you that would make you forget all about that bitch." Courtney taunted as she looked sharply at Jason.

"Shut up! Don't you ever talk about Elizabeth like that. I love her." he yelled ready to kill her with his bare hands.

"Liar! You love me!" Courtney cried. "Sonny said that I could have you if I wanted you. He promised me. He said he would get me whatever I want and I want you. He promised that he would get rid of that dreadful ugly child Elizabeth. He even bought this loft for me and made it look like you did, just so Elizabeth would see and then know that you wanted me. You love me Jason, I know you do." she cried kicking her hands and feet like a two year old.

"I've never in my life hurt a woman before but..." Jason spat as his anger boiled. He was so mad that he knew he was just about to lose it and if he didn't get control pretty soon someone in this room was gonna die and it wasn't going to be him or Elizabeth."You are fucking nuts." he muttered.

"Allow me." Elizabeth snarled as she stepped around Jason and started over to the bed to confront Rambo Barbie. Elizabeth balled her right hand into a fist. She easily connected with Courtney's nose and jaw. The sound of bones breaking filled the room. Courtney screamed as blood gushed from her nose. Jason smiled to himself, secretly proud of Elizabeth.

"Stay away from us. I won't warn you again" Jason warned taking Elizabeth's hand

"Where are we going?" she asked softly when they reached his bike.

"To see Sonny." Jason snarled furiously thinking that today might be the day that the Godfather of Port Charles died.
