Jason walked into his room. He unwrapped one of his hands from around Sam to turn on the light when Sam whimpered. Immediately his arm was back around her. Sam buried her head further into Jason to shield her eyes from the light in the room. Jason sat down on his bed. Sam was still wrapped tightly around him. She was sobbing almost uncontrollably and Jason just held her tighter. She was so small in his arms, and it only fueled the growing anger he felt towards Jerry Jacks. How a man could be this cruel to a woman so small and obviously beautiful he had no idea.
As Jason mulled over his thoughts, Sam drifted off to sleep, Jason's shoulder providing her with the perfect pillow. When Jason felt her breathing even out he placed his hand soothingly at the back of Sam's head. He stroked her silky raven hair while she slept. H found it to be very calming. Sam shifted slightly in his arms, and her hair was pressed up against Jason's nose. She smelled like spicy apples and vanilla.
Sam rolled over in the bed. She buried her head deeper into the pillow. It smelled so intoxicating to her. It was like she couldn't get enough of the masculine, woodsy, mint smell. Sam opened her eyes with a start when she realized why the smell was so intoxicating. It smelled just like Jason. The man was intoxicating and his smell only added to that factor. Sam wondered to herself why her bed smelled like Jason when she realized the sheets she was wrapped in were black. The sheets she'd slept in the previous nights were white.
Then, everything came back to her. Sam remembered Jason asking about Jerry and threatening to kill him. She remembered feeling a twinge of happiness run through her. Then, Jason started asking questions she wasn't ready to answer, and her emotions got the best of her. When he put his hand on her shoulder the tears started pouring and she, for the life of her, couldn't stop them. Jason had carried her out of the room she was being kept in and into what she guessed was his. She didn't know what this meant for her, but she hoped that Jason wouldn't think the worst of her because she'd shown how weak she was. Her thoughts were silenced when Jason walked back into the room.
"How are you feeling?"
Nothing.
"Sam please say something."
Sam could hear the slight desperation in his voice. Was he worried about her?
"I'm fine. I'd like to go back to my room now."
"You want to go back there?"
"I'm your captive Jason, nothing more nothing less."
Jason heard the steel in Sam's voice and he didn't like it. She was closing off her emotions, something Jason had a lot of experience with.
"We need to talk first."
"Please don't ask me about Jerry."
Sam felt her resolve weakening. Jason could hear it.
"I'll listen to what ever you want to tell me." Jason sat down the bed opposite beside Sam.
"Jason please…"
"Sam, the only way you will ever get over something is to acknowledge and talk about it. Trust me I know what I'm talking about."
"How?"
"I'll tell you mine if you tell me yours."
Sam exhaled as she stared deep into Jason's eyes. Here he was asking her something she never wanted to answer, yet when she looked into his eyes, she felt compelled to.
"When Jerry and I got married, he was…" Sam bit down on her bottom lip. She tilted her head to the side as she pondered the right word. She started ringing her hands.
Jason watched as Sam looked up at the ceiling deep in thought. When he'd first set eyes upon her face he'd thought she was beautiful, but to see her looking natural and not even trying to be sexy, she looked…perfect.
"Jerry was kind. He took me places and he was always trying to make me smile. I knew what he did for a living, but I never cared. When I was with Jerry, he never showed the business side of him. He never even got angry with me. Then, when he got married everything changed."
Sam stopped. She was chewing on her bottom lip once more. She had no clue what to say. Did she tell Jason the complete truth, or cover for Jerry like she had been for years.
With a deep breath, Sam elaborated.
"A week after our wedding Jerry and I were in Spain for our honeymoon. I've always loved Spain and Jerry knew that. We were in our hotel suite when Jerry got a phone call. He walked out of the room and I assumed it business. I decided to go watch some television while he finished his phone call. Anyway, when Jerry came back into the room, I remember him walking towards me. I was smiling at him and the next thing I knew he slapped me and I hit my head on the nearby table. I looked up at him and something in his eyes was different."
Sam stopped her story once more. The tears had erupted from her eyes and started falling down her face. She moved a shaky hand to wipe the teas, but a larger callous hand beat her to it. Jason wiped the tears from Sam's face with his hand and the cupped her face. Sam leaned into his hand. Her watery eyes looked up at Jason's.
"It's okay." Jason's voice was soothing. He was encouraging but not demanding, something Jerry had never been.
"That was the first time Jerry had ever hit me. But it wasn't the last. Jerry has been hitting me for years. Whenever he's drunk and needs a punching bag, there I am. Sometimes if he's had a bad day at work he'll come home and swear he told me to make sure something got done. When I explain that he never told me that I always end up with a busted lip."
Sam ceased speaking when she noticed that Jason's hand was in a tight fist, his knuckles turning white. Sam used the hand that wasn't wiping her tears to take his fist in to her hands. She opened his hand and began tracing patterns on his palm. Jason found it to be relaxing.
"Why?" Jason asked quietly. It was the only thing he could voice at the moment. The anger he felt in his body towards Jerry Jacks for what he'd done to Sam was confusing to him. Sam was supposed to be his captive for a few weeks. He was supposed to use her for information, not care for her. He'd already broken one of his rules by kidnapping the woman. He'd be breaking an even bigger rule if he fell for the enemy so to speak.
"I have nowhere else to go. Jerry made himself the only person I could depend on and I let him."
Jason and Sam sat in a peaceful quiet after that. Jason was thinking of all the creative and painful ways he could kill Jerry. Sam was thinking about the fact that she'd just share what years of her life had been like with her captive.
"Your turn." Sam finally broke the silence.
"Huh?" Jason asked.
"You said if I told you my story, then you'd tell me yours."
Jason closed his eyes and inhaled deeply. He'd only said that so she would tell him what was wrong. He didn't want to tell her his story because he didn't want her to look at him like a freak. All of the other women he'd ever told had. They'd all taken pity on him, something Jason Morgan hated with a burning passion.
"I was born Jason Quartermaine. For years I was a spoiled rich kid. I got the perfect grades and I had the perfect life. Then, I was out on my motorcycle one night. Some men who disliked my grandfather ran me down. I lost my entire memory. I was so angry and I did things that I shouldn't have. I started sleeping with women as an attempt to keep myself entertained. I was pissed at the world. Then, one day I decided I needed revenge. I tracked down the men who tried to kill me and I murdered them one by one."
Jason swallowed loudly. He looked up at Sam who had taken her hand and wrapped it in his. He eyes showed no signs of fear, so he decided to keep going.
"I enjoyed killing them. It was liberating. I decided to drop the Quartermaine name and instead I use my Grandmother Lila's last name, Morgan, instead."
Jason decided it was best to leave the rest of the story for later. He had a feeling Sam was keeping something from him and he knew she wasn't ready to her the rest of his story.
As Jason was pondering his thoughts, Sam's stomach began making noises. Sam blushed in embarrassment, but Jason smiled to himself.
"Let's get you fed," he suggested, "what would you like?"
"Chinese." Sam answered simply.
Jason rose to grab his cell phone when he heard his doorbell ring. Immediately he looked at Sam and ignored how beautiful and comfortable she looked in his bed.
"I'm not going anywhere." Sam promised.
Jason nodded. He trusted her for some reason.
Jason walked out of his room and through his house until he came t his front door. He pulled open the door and was shocked to see Brenda Barrett staring up at him. She was smiling as if she hadn't made his life hell in the past.
"Hey Jason!" She exclaimed pushing past him and into the house. She was wearing and over-sized white sweater and black leggings and a pair of tan boots. She dropped her two suitcases on the floor beside her.
Jason clenched his jaw. He was not nor would he ever be in the mood for Brenda and the dram she came with.
"Why are you here?" Jason asked coldly.
"I missed you too." Brenda quipped back.
"What do you want Brenda?"
"I miss our relationship. I miss the way we were. I know I messed up but I figure we can work things out. I'm sorry for how I left things with you Jason."
Jason pinched the bridge of his nose. What was with the ex-flames in his life? First Elizabeth decides she misses him, and now Brenda? Why him?
"You can't be here." Jason replied, his tone serious.
"Of course I can. You have guards so I know I'm protected and I can work past the whole killing people for a living thing, and who knows maybe I'm finally ready to give the child you've always wanted.
"You can't be here." Jason repeated just as serious.
"Why not?'
"I said so."
"That's not good enough Jason. I know you miss me."
"Jason, who's this?" Sam asked as she made herself known. She'd wiped her tears applied a little lip gloss and just like that it looked as if nothing had happened.
Jason was shocked. Sam looked so in control. It was a huge turn on for him.
Brenda on the other hand looked beyond pissed.
"Jason what's going on?" Brenda practically screeched.
Sam walked over to Brenda and Jason, her confidence visible in every step. She slipped her arms around Jason's large waist.
"I'm Sam. I'm Jason's girlfriend."
