Never Gonna Get It
Part V
~~Evening~~
The Women
A lazy smile crept at the corners of her mouth as she lay back in the warmth of the bubble water…steam rising creating a haunting fog to engulf the bathroom. The lights dimmed low, she bathes. Slowly raising a leg caressing it with the bath scrubby leaving a smooth trail of bubbles washing the caramel softness of her skin…the drip dropping water on her leg rains back in to the bubble water, as she gives the other leg the same treatment.
Kai sighs in relaxation…she needed this…especially after having his strong muscular body trapping her against the bar…especially after his intense blue eyes bore in to her chocolate brown ones…especially after his touch, his hands on her hips…his possessiveness as he crashed her body in to his making her feel him.
She bites down on her lip at the memory. As she closes her eyes the picture becomes vivid…as if she is back in that moment with Jason…she blows out a shaky breath as her heart quickens at the memory of her hands underneath his shirt feeling his warmness and then his hands traveling down her back and to her ass claiming it in a slight squeeze…her lips slightly part as they let out a moan.
"I can't believe I'm doing this. Carly is gonna have a heart attack when she finds out." Kai says…she gets another quick flash of her quickly kissing Jason and slightly tugging on his bottom lip. "Shouldn't he have called by now?" She sighs as she goes back to her bath once again getting lost in her thoughts
Sitting on the couch dressed in her flannel pajamas with her hair in a ponytail watching Thelma and Louise on T.V. was Carly…she was surrounded by every junk food you could possibly think of. A bowl of chocolate ice cream in her lap, barbeque and sour cream and onion potato chips on one side with chocolate chip cookies and a huge bag of M&M's on the other. To say she was in a foul mood was an understatement…men were PIGS she kept saying to herself as she watched a movie that was definitely PROOF of that fact.
When Carly and Kai went to Kelly's for lunch earlier that day all it did was add to her mood. For some reason Kai kept bringing up Jason and Sonny and for the life of her she couldn't understand why Kai kept harping on those two jerks.
For a minute she started to think that Kai wanted to change her mind about them and give them a shot…so she called her on it; but Kai quickly denied it and after that she changed the subject back to club business.
It was too late though, Kai had already gotten her so worked up about Sonny…and then you add the phone call she'd gotten from him earlier and she also started thinking about the bar brawl and everything that happened the first time they saw Sonny and Jason at Luke's. Sonny better be glad that he was wherever he's at right now because if he were in front of her BOY would she let him HAVE IT…and that wouldn't be a good thing for him at this moment.
Carly sat engrossed in the movie…the part where Louise shot the punk that was about to rape Thelma was on. Carly CHEERED!
"THAT'S WHAT YOU GET YOU NO GOOD PUNK ASS MAN!"
Kai was jarred from her thoughts of Jason when she heard Carly's voice yelling about punk ass men. She shook her head in exasperation as she looked at the door as if Carly were standing in front of her. She tried to get a sense at where Carly was at on the grounds of Sonny when they were at Kelly's earlier for lunch. She almost gave herself away about her and Jason but she quickly covered it up.
***Flashback***
"Hey lunch is on me today…so don't say that I never did anything for ya" Carly smirks "It's just an added apology for earlier…you know, yelling at you and all."
"Well don't think I'm not gonna accept it" Kai laughs "You can most definitely pick up the check" Kai looks at the menu as she say, "Hmmmmmmm let me see…just what issssssssss…the most expensive thinnnnnnnnnnnng…on the menu here?" Kai looks over the menu and smirks at Carly. Carly just shakes her head as she tries to hold in a laugh. Kai glances back at the menu… "Ahhh yes I think I'll order all the desserts" They laugh "And see how much your moms is willing to let the secret recipe for Ruby's Chili go for."
Kai puts down the menu and smiles brightly at Carly…
"Nut you know you're insane right? Do I look like one of your boy toys?" Carly laughs "Your behind is getting the Today's Special. You lucky I'm getting you a drink to go with that."
Penny comes over ready to take their order…Kai starts to speak but Carly raises up a hand silencing her before she can say anything. She orders for them.
"Hi Penny…we'll have two Today's Specials and two diet cokes."
Penny writes down their order on her pad and smiles back at them, "Sure thing Carly, I'll be right back with your order in a few."
Carly smirks at Kai then smiles up at Penny, "Thanks Penn."
"No problem." says Penny as she leaves to go put their order in
"You hooch I can't believe you just ordered for me like that." Kai says with a little laugh
"What you didn't think I would?" says Carly as she holds in her laughter.
"Yeah well just because you ordered and are picking up the tab don't expect me to put out."
They continue to laugh…
"Oh you don't have to worry about that darlin" Carly smirks "In the words of my Uncle Luke…I don't swing that way."
Kai decides that it was the perfect time to slip in the subject of Sonny since she was in a better mood than before.
"You know what…it's been a while since we've been out on real dates."
"Tell me about it."
"If those two fools would have acted right maybe they could have passed for reasonable dates."
Carly sighs in frustration, "Don't tell me you are gonna bring up Dipody Do Dog Mobster and his BORG sidekick up again. I thought we had this settled?"
"We do…I mean I was just saying that if…"
Carly cuts Kai off "Yeah, yeah if they weren't such jerks then we could have given them a chance. Save it Kai I'm not in the mood for it. Let's just enjoy our lunch"
"Okay, okay don't go biting my head off about it." Kai puts her hands up in defense, she pauses then says… "You gotta admit they were cute though."
Kai was saved by Penny bringing their order over to them setting it on the table in front of them…
"Okay that was two Today's Specials and two diet cokes." Penny smiles "Can I get you ladies anything else?"
Carly cuts her eyes at Kai then looks up at Penny quickly covering with a fake smile "No thank you Penny." she says politely.
Penny nods then leaves…
Kai sees Carly quickly turn her head back towards her with a pissed off look on her face. She could see Carly clearly wasn't up for talking about Sonny right now…and she could also see that her friend was burying how she really felt underneath her anger and part of Carly's anger was her fault. She'd just have to find another way to go about the subject.
When Penny left their table Cary was just about to rant and rave at Kai, but Kai mirrored her action from before by putting a hand up stopping her from saying anything.
"Like you said lets just enjoy our lunch." Kai quickly says then changes the subject… "So what do you think about opening the club early…say next weekend. Friday?"
***End Flashback***
The Men
Luke's
Luke couldn't believe it…his perfectly good plan blown to smithereens and it was all because a certain mobster didn't know how to follow directions. Well at least that is how he thought of it…after the disastrous phone call Sonny left the club. He didn't even say anything…just stared at Luke with cold black eyes silently telling him to back the hell off or he'd regret it…Sonny quietly turned and walked out the door leaving Luke alone standing behind the bar.
That's were Luke was now standing behind the bar, the club was about to open for the night…he put out his cigar in a nearby ashtray and began pouring himself a shot of Tequila. Picking up the glass he raises it towards the door as if giving it a toast then he downs the shot.
"If you want something done right you gotta do it yourself!"
Luke pours another shot…
"I work better alone anyway what the hell was I thinking letting Sonny in on the plan." he once again downs the shot, "My plans always work so the only reason it was a bust had to have been because of Corinthos. I should have taken care of this by myself in the first place…Cupid's so far stuck up Sonny's ass he can't think straight! No if ya want something done right handle it yourself! At the way they're going Taggert will convert to the other side and ONCE AGAIN LEAVE ME ON THE SAME SIDE AS THE LAW!" Luke bangs his fist down on the bar, "Well I tell ya one thing they are not gonna ping pong me back and forth! I'm Luke Spencer! Spencer's are allergic to being aligned with cops we break out in hives it's not a pretty sight!" He lights another cigar "Forget Corinthos and Morgan I'll just handle this The "Luke" way"
Luke takes a quick drag of his newly lit cigar, blows out the smoke then laughs…
"Love Connection Spencer Style!"
As customers started coming in the door, Luke just stood there with his cigar in his teeth smiling at the plan that was forming in his head.
~*~*~*~
After Sonny left Luke's he went to the warehouse he needed to keep busy cause if he stopped to think about what happened with Carly it would only proceed to make his headache greater…that and increase the need to want his hands around Luke's neck. He should of listened to Jason, he was right…something always goes wrong with Luke's plans why did he expect it to be any different this time.
The day was shot to hell for Sonny and even when he reasoned with himself saying that he wasn't gonna think about it, it was still there inside of him…how could he forget it. Trying to stay busy and keep his mind off of everything only increased his bad mood which was not a good thing for his workers.
Ever since Sonny got to the warehouse he'd been barking out orders, slamming doors, putting even more fear in his men than they already had. One poor guy made the mistake of trying to talk to Sonny since he saw that he wasn't in too good of a mood and Sonny all but took his head off as he docked him for the time that he wasted trying to get in his business. He started inspecting the warehouse making sure everyone was doing their job, Sonny was on the warpath. The workers couldn't even enjoy their breaks for Sonny breathing down their necks making sure they only took the scheduled amount of time so they could get back to work.
Benny came out of the office after finishing up some invoices…he began walking around to see if he could find Sonny…it was late and as soon as he talked to Sonny he was gonna leave to go home for the day. Some of the workers saw Benny and they went rushing up to him to try to plead with him to see if he could get Sonny to take a break and go home or something.
"Please Benny he's driving us Crazy." said Tom
"Do you know he docked me just because I tried to talk to him?" Larry added "I was just trying to be polite."
"He's got us working late its way past quitting time. We should be home by now. He keeps barking out about time being money and for us not to waste his time cause it messes with his money!" Jim chimed in
"Benny you gotta get him to go home. Please." begged Tom
Benny stood overwhelmed by the guys and their pleas to him about Sonny. He listened to them and he agreed with them but it was a whole other ballgame to try and convince Sonny to leave for the day.
"Look guys I'll see what I can do."
"Thanks Benny" Tom, Larry, and Jim said at the same time
"Look why don't you guys go ahead and leave…tell everyone else to punch in the clock to. I'll talk with Sonny."
They nodded in thanks to Benny but stopped in mid nod when they saw Sonny's cold black eyes staring at them from behind Benny. Benny turns around to Sonny seeing the pissed off look on his face…he turns back to the guys and says…
"Go ahead…go." Benny quickly says
Benny didn't have to tell them twice all three of them quickly left and began to spread the word to get out of dodge.
"Just who the hell do you think you are to tell my workers they can leave? Are you the boss here Benny! Cause I could of swore the name of the warehouse is CORINTHOS/Morgan!"
"I know sir…you're the boss. I just…" Benny tries to speak
Cutting him off, Sonny continues to say "Oh so since you know that I'm your boss then why do go behind my back disrespecting me in front of my workers!"
"Sir, I mean no disrespect. I looked at my watch and noticed that it was past time for the workers to be here and…"
"And you decided to give them the order to leave!" Sonny finishes his sentence
Benny stood his ground trying not to flinch, "Yes sir." Sonny stood staring at Benny, his eyes burning with rage. "Sir, it's just that you seem to be going through something and I thought that you could use some quiet time."
"Don't start lecturing me about my private life Benny." Sonny says as he points his index finger at Benny.
"Whatever you want…but you know if you ever want to talk about it I'm here. You know just in case. I mean I can see that something is troubling you." Benny said in a soothing voice as he tried in his way to help
Benny has been working for Sonny for a long time and over the years Sonny has not only been a boss to him but also a good friend so he wanted to try to help if he could.
"No…I'm fine." Sonny says in a low voice, "Just don't go around giving my workers orders unless you get them from me! You Got That Benny!" he barks out as he leaves Benny standing alone.
Benny lets out a breath he didn't know he was holding as he watched Sonny leave…
Harbor View Towers – Penthouse 2
After Jason left Kai at her club he was on Cloud 9...he couldn't believe his luck…and he couldn't wait to get inside his penthouse so that he could call her since she told him to call her later. When he left he decided to go on one of his long bike rides…he'd been gone most of the day.
Opening the door Jason stops in place when he saw Sonny staring out of his window with a glass of what looked like Scotch in his hand. Jason just stands as he remembered Kai telling him that Sonny had called Carly and that it was a disaster…which means that Luke's plan was a bust just like he told Sonny it would be. Jason closes the door behind him and Sonny turns around at the sound of the door closing.
"Where have you been?" Sonny asks his voice clearly agitated
"Out riding…why?" Jason answers
"Oh no reason I'm just your boss and all." Sonny drinks the last of his Scotch
"Okay I can see you're in a foul mood."
Sonny walks over to Jason's bar "Nooooooo how'd you guess?" he says sarcastically as he throws some ice in to his glass and refills it. "You know…you were right. I should have listened to you." he drinks "Luke messed everything up I should have left when you did…go ahead you can say it."
"Say what?" Jason asks
"I told you so. You have every right to you were right."
"So what are you gonna do now? Give up…just because one of Luke's crazy plans didn't work…"
"Why not…she made it very clear when I talked to her on the phone that she didn't want to have anything to do with me." Sonny replies
"I can't believe I'm hearing this coming from you. You never quit you never give up. Now you're gonna throw in the towel just because you had one bad day."
"You didn't hear what she said to me Jason!" Sonny drinks some of his drink then sits on the couch.
Jason sits on the arm of the couch looking down at Sonny "I can just imagine…if she's anything like Kai that is."
"How can you stay so positive? Kai has turned you down just as many times."
Jason gets a quick flash of Kai quickly kissing him then telling him to call her…he snaps out of it when he realizes that Sonny is staring at him "I've never been one to give up so easily and neither have you…especially when it's something you want."
Sonny slowly nods "Yeah…you're right."
"So does that mean you're not gonna give up on Carly?"
"I'll think about it." Sonny places his glass on the table in front of the couch then stands, "I'll see ya later."
"Yeah see ya."
As soon as Sonny left out the door Jason rushed to his phone to call Kai.
Kai slowly steps out of the bathtub as the water runs out…she grabs a towel and begins drying herself off, throws it in the hamper and puts on a white terrycloth robe that was hanging on the door. She turns on the light and leaves out of the bathroom.
Kai decides to take a peek at Carly downstairs so she leaves out of her bedroom and heads down the hallway. As she stands at the top of the staircase she sees Carly on the couch rooting for Thelma and Louise…the scene where they shoot at some sexist pig as they ride around him in a huge circle then shoot at his truck which blows up and they drive off cheering was playing. Kai just shakes her head at Carly just watching her jumping up and down yelling and cheering….she leaves without saying a word, going back to her room.
As soon as Kai entered her room her phone rang…she yells out "I GOT IT!" telling Carly that she had the phone…if it was Jason it wouldn't be a good thing for Carly to answer. She flops down on the bed and answers a little out of breath…
"Hello."
"Hey…it's me."
Kai tries to play it off like she wasn't expecting him to call; she didn't want to seem too anxious or that she was waiting by the phone for his call… "Oh yeah, Jason. I forgot you were supposed to call me."
Jason knew what she was doing but he decided to play along, "Oh really…well if you were busy or something I can let you go."
Kai quickly answers, "No that's okay. I'm not busy."
Jason cracks a small smile at the corner of his mouth…Kai then gets a sinking feeling as she looks at the door. This was too dangerous, Carly could pick up the phone forgetting that she was already on it to try and order a pizza or something to add to all the other junk food she had with her.
Since Kai hadn't said anything, Jason wasn't sure if she was still there or not, "Kai, you still there?"
"Yeah, yeah I'm here…listen I'm gonna give you my cell phone number…hang up and call me back on it. I don't want to take any chances that Carly will accidentally pick up the phone."
Kai quickly gives Jason her cell number and hangs up…she picks up her cell phone, it was sitting on her night stand and waits for the call. It rings…
"Miss me?" Jason says before Kai could say anything.
Kai smiles a she shakes her head "No I think you got that the other way around." she smirks
"Okay you got me…cause all I could do since I left your club earlier was think about having you trapped" Jason pauses "against the bar…so close…feeling you."
Kai smiles and flirts back "You liked that huh…"
"Oh yeah…I know you did too. So uh…when do I get to see you again?"
"I dunno…I think Carly is already starting to get suspicious."
"So just because Carly doesn't like Sonny that means we can't see each other?" Jason asks
"No…it's just that. Listen it's partly my fault that Carly can't stand him. I'm trying to fix things with her about it and then maybe she'll be more open to talking to Sonny and won't kill me for going behind her back. I just have to think of a plan."
Jason shakes his head as he laughs a little "No, no more plans. I've heard enough plans from Luke to last me a life time…and I'm sure Sonny has learned his lesson about listening to any of Luke's hairball schemes also."
Kai laughs "Yeah well I'm not Luke…besides I think that if we both think about it we can come up with something that could push our friends in each other's direction."
"Do we have to talk about it right now? Cause right now I just want to talk about us."
Kai smiles "Awww…poor baby feels neglected." she laughs
"So what were you doing when I called you the first time…you seemed a little out of breath? Maybe you were running to the phone…bet you couldn't wait to talk to me."
Even though that was true Kai wasn't gonna let him know that…so she decides to make him suffer a little since he wanted to play that game.
"No uh…actually I'd just finished taking a bubble bath." Kai says in a low seductive tone, she smiles as she continues "You know…the lights dimmed low…some candles lit…steam haunting the room…and me Naked…in the warmth of the water…and the bubbles caressing me…evvvvvery part of me."
Kai was driving Jason crazy…the image of her was imbedded in his head; he grew hard at just the thought.
"Parts I know you would loooooove to…Kisssssssss. To Mmmmmmmmm…..Caressssss."
Jason gets a lump in his throat at Kai's words, "So uh…what are you wearing?"
"You really wanna know."
"Oh yeah…I wanna know."
Kai unties the sash of her robe opening it as she lies back getting comfortable on her bed "Hmmmmmm…how should I put this." She smiles wickedly then answers in a sexy tone, "You remember that old Johnny Kemp song?"
Jason smirks, he didn't know what she was talking about, "What?"
"It's the one outfit I know you're dying to see me in…my Birthday Suit."
Jason thought about it for a little bit and then he got the message…and that only proceeded to make him harder if it was even possible.
"You're torturing me you know that right."
Kai bits her bottom lip a little "Mmmm…I know." she smirks
THE NEXT DAY
Luke's Office at the Club
Everything was set…Luke was putting the finishing touches on Operation Love Connection.
"Okay so I'm on my way over there now…yeah I'll call you back when I'm there…you know what to do right…good. No slip-ups, this has to go like Clock Work! Don't tell me not to worry, your rep isn't the on the line here! Never Mind just be ready for my call!" Luke slams down the phone
"AGGHH…can't find good criminals these days without 'em being so damn nosey!"
Luke dials another number…the next part in his plan
"Hello"
"Well hello there Sweet Caroline." Luke says when Carly answers the phone
Carly frowns when she hears Luke's voice, she wasn't in the mood for him today "I'm kind of busy right now so can you make this quick Uncle Luke."
"Well someone seems a little droopy today…you wanna tell Uncle Luke all about it?"
Carly cuts him off "No." she says simply and then goes on saying "and I'm really not in the mood today so either make it fast or…"
Luke cuts her off "Okay, okay excuse me for trying to make nice conversation."
"Is there a reason for this call, because like I said I'm pretty busy here; I'm at the club getting ready for the opening."
Luke sighs in frustration, he was trying to help here and all he was getting was attitude…he had to hold in his anger or his plan wasn't gonna work and he couldn't have that.
"Well since you're busy I'll make this quick…but I'm hoping that I can convince you to take a little break." Luke says trying to put his plaaan into motion
"Why?" Carly asks
"Cause I wanted to take you and Barbara Jean out for lunch." Luke figured that he'd mention Bobbie's name to help convince her to say yes "You know…make a Spencer day out of it."
Carly looked at her cell phone like he was crazy "What's the catch? You never call and invite me out for lunch."
"No catch darlin…just wanna take the two most beautiful gals in Port Chuck out for lunch."
"Mmmm hmm…something's up." Carly says with suspicion
"Why you got to be so damn suspicious it's just lunch. Can't an Uncle call and invite his favorite niece out."
"I guess it's just the Spencer in me" Carly says sarcastically "And I'm your only niece and guess what I'm not buying it so come up with another phony excuse dear Uncle."
"Oh come on! I swear there's no catch" Luke says as he crosses his fingers "Besides you like having lunch with Bobbie."
Against her better judgment Carly agrees "God I know this is gonna bite me in the ass later."
Luke perks up "So you'll come."
"Yeah, yeah I'll come."
"Okay so meet me at GH say in about a half hour…we're gonna surprise Barbara Jean, and what better surprise is there than her daughter and her favorite brother coming to steal her away for lunch."
"So momma doesn't know about this spontaneous lunch date?" Carly asks once again in suspicion…she knew her Uncle Luke was up to something, she just didn't know what.
"No…and besides she loves surprises. Don't be so suspicious Sweet Caroline you'll get wrinkles. See ya in thirty…meet me in front of GH we'll go in together."
Luke hangs up the phone and then dials another number "Hey meet me outside of Kelly's it's important." he hangs up the phone before the person can answer.
KELLY'S
Jason stands outside of Kelly's waiting for Luke to come…when Luke called him, he was already on his way there so he didn't protest…not that he could have cause Luke hung up the phone before he could say anything. Jason had just finished talking to Kai before Luke called…she agreed to meet him back at his penthouse and they'd have some get to know each other time; especially after their phone call last night.
Luke spies on Jason from around the corner as he sees him standing waiting for him to show up…he smiles as his plan was going according to schedule…this was too easy. He begins to quickly walk up to Jason and accidentally on purpose bumps in to Jason.
"Oh sorry man…I guess I just lost my balance." Luke apologizes
Jason straightens himself up "No problem…what's this about Luke? You said it was important."
"Well I just wanted to let ya know that you got your wish…I'm not gonna waste my time trying to help you two bozos out with Carly and Kai. Happy."
"That's it…you could have told me that on the phone."
"I like to do things in person. What…not even a thank you?" Luke says
"Yeah, thanks…I'll uh pass the message along to Sonny."
Luke smiles "You do that…anyway I got to go. See ya later Borg." he pats Jason on the shoulder then leaves back around the corner to where he was watching Jason at before.
Jason watches as Luke leaves…he had a suspicious feeling but just didn't know what. Deciding not to worry about Luke, Jason goes inside Kelly's.
Luke watches as Jason goes inside…he takes out the cell phone he lifted off Jason when he bumped in to him earlier…
"And you call yourself a mobster…can't even tell when your pocket is being picked." Luke laughs as he goes off on his way for the next stage of his plan.
PENTHOUSE 4
Sonny decided not to go in to the warehouse today for obvious reasons. Instead he decided to have Benny come over and he could go over some business with him at home.
Sonny and Benny were sitting on the couch discussing business when Sonny's phone rang…he went to answer the phone excusing himself has he went and Benny nodded waiting for him to return from the call.
"Hello"
"Sonny its Luke." Luke quickly says trying to make it sound urgent.
"What do you want? I'm in a meeting…besides I'm through listening to you!" Sonny says with attitude
"Hey fine by me man I'm not gonna cry a river over it! I'm just calling to let you know that Jason was in an accident on his motorcycle."
"WHAT!" Sonny quickly asks
Benny looked up at Sonny as he heard him yell out in to the phone…Luke smiled as he got just the reaction he wanted. He swiped Jason's phone just in case he called Sonny which would mess up his plan royally.
"Yeah listen I was at GH visiting Barbara Jean when Jason came in…don't worry Blue Eyes isn't hurt to bad but Monica wants to keep him for observation…you know how momma bears are with their baby cubs."
Sonny listened as Luke told him about Jason "I'm on my way."
Sonny picked up his suit jacket he had laying on the back of the chair at his desk and proceeded to put it on…Benny watched him wondering what was going on…
"Is there a problem boss?"
Sonny looks over to Benny just as he's about to leave out the door "Yeah, Jason was in an accident on his motorcycle."
"Oh my God is he gonna be alright?"
"It's not serious, Monica just wants to keep him for observation. I'm gonna go down there and check on him. I'll be back in a little while…can you stay and look over those last couple of contracts and just leave them on my desk when you're done."
"Sure no problem." Benny replies
"Thanks."
And with that Sonny was out the door on his way to GH.
GENERAL HOSPITAL
"Well, well, well…if it isn't Sweet Caroline. Glad you actually showed up." Luke says.
"Yeah well it was against my better judgment." Carly answers
"Ouch…I'm hurt."
Carly smirks "Mmm hmmm…well this was your idea so let's go up and surprise Bobbie."
Luke looks around seeing if he could see the other unsuspecting pawn in his plan and then glances at his watch…Carly notices him and once again gets suspicious.
"What are you up to?"
"Whaaaaaat, I'm not up to nothing…" Luke feigns innocence "Now didn't Uncle Lukey tell his niecey-po not to worry." he says in a childlike voice as he pinches her cheek.
Carly pushes his hand off of her cheek as she laughs at him…he was definitely up to something, "Don't ever talk in that voice again."
"You know you love it."
"Keep dreaming Old Man…"
~Meanwhile the same time at the Harbor View Towers~
Kai steps off the elevator…she looks to the right and sees Penthouse 4, she was looking for number 2. She turns to the left and there it is…smiling to herself she walks over to the door and knocks.
Benny had just finished up the contracts Sonny wanted him to look over…he left them on his desk per his request and was about to leave. When he stepped in to the hallway he saw a beautiful young woman knocking on Jason's door.
"Excuse me Miss…" Kai turns around "Sorry but uh, Jason's not home right now."
"Oh he isn't…because he asked me to meet him here." Kai answers
Benny was about to reply but the elevator door opened and Jason walked off. Benny's eyes shot wide open he was shocked to see Jason out of the hospital after his accident. Jason looks at Benny wondering what was up.
"You okay Benny?" Jason asks
"Am I okay? I should be asking you that question. I thought you were in an accident on your motorcycle."
Kai comes to stand by Jason and he wraps a hand around her waist without realizing it. Jason didn't know what Benny was talking about he wasn't in an accident, he stares back at Benny…
"Who told you I was in an accident."
"Well Sonny got a call from someone saying that you were in an accident and that Monica was keeping you at GH for observation."
Jason didn't like the sound of that….something was up. "Well as you can see Benny, I'm fine." he reaches in to his pocket for his cell phone to call Sonny but it wasn't there. He started to think when was the last time he used it…just before he left to go meet Luke at Kelly's. Then it clicks.
"Luke."
Kai and Benny look at Jason wondering what he was thinking.
"What about Luke?" Kai asks
Jason presses the elevator button…once the doors open he walks Kai inside with him "Come on we gotta go. If I'm right Luke's up to something."
"Luke is always up to something." Kai says as the doors close.
Luke finally saw Sonny's car coming so he had to act fast…he quickly turned Carly around so she didn't see Sonny at least not until he was ready.
"Hey uh…I forgot something in my car uh" Luke starts to quickly walk Carly inside and to the elevators "You go on up and I'll be right back."
"But I thought you wanted to surprise Bobbie together."
Luke quickly thinks "We will, we will…you just go up. Say that you just dropped by to see her and stall until I get there. K. Good. I'll see ya in a few."
Luke quickly pulls out his cell and calls his friend…
"Okay she's by the elevator…don't let it open until I call ya back."
Just as Luke hung up the phone he bumped in to Sonny outside who was on his way in to see Jason.
"Well it's about time you got here Corinthos."
"Where's Jason."
"5th Floor room 575."
Sonny pushes past Luke and makes his way inside to the elevators. Luke smiles as he watches Sonny go inside towards the elevators…he calls his friend and lets him know everything was in motion and for him to get to work.
Sonny stops short when he sees Carly standing by the elevator…Carly turns around thinking that it was Luke…
"Well it's about time you got back. Damn elevator is taking forever…"
Carly freezes when she realizes that it was Sonny instead of Luke.
"Hi" Sonny simply says. She looked so beautiful.
"Hi" Carly says in return…why did her stomach suddenly do a flip-flop she thinks to herself. Damn he looked so good.
The elevator doors open…
"Going up?" Sonny asks as he holds his hand out motioning towards the door letting her get in first. Maybe this was a sign for him not to give up…if he had anything to say about it this was gonna be one helluva elevator ride.
"Yeah" Carly answers as she gets on…she smiles at him as he dimples at her.
Just as the elevator door was about to close a hand reaches in as a voice calls out…
"Hold The Elevator!"
The doors open…and Sonny was shocked to see is ex…Wanda.
Sonny groans in frustration as the elevator doors close behind her.
Carly saw his look and was wondering what was wrong…
Wanda saw Carly standing a little too close to Sonny for her liking…she walks over to Sonny and stands in his personal space as she rakes a hand up and down his chest.
"So how's my Latino Lover Man." Wanda says in a seductive tone smirking while she clearly agitated the blond that was staring her down.
Sonny silently closed his eyes as he leaned his head backward to bang against the elevator wall…everything was about to go perfect and now this…he whispers to himself "Why me?"
Carly was shocked that Sonny hadn't moved the hussy that was draped all over him away…Wanda stood smirking as she continued running her hand up and down Sonny's chest. She was about to put the hussy in her place when all of a sudden the elevator shook violently and the lights flickered. The elevator had stopped…they were stuck.
After Luke made the call to his buddy he smiled to himself in triumph. The plan was to get Sonny and Carly alone for a little while without any interruptions…if they were alone together then Corinthos could put on the charm then Carly would flirt back then his work as the Love Doctor would be done. Everything was going according to plan…that was until Luke saw Corinthos' ex 'Ol Lady Wanda heading towards the elevator. He curses to himself as he saw her getting on in the last minute.
"DAMN IT! DAMN IT! DAMN IT!" Luke kicked a nearby trash can…he calls his friend back so he could yell at him. This was clearly his fault…because no way was Luke about to take the blame. "DAMN IT I THOUGHT I TOLD YOU NO ONE GETS STUCK ON THAT ELEVATOR BUT DON JUAN AND THE BLOND MOB MOLL!"
Jason and Kai come running up to Luke hearing him yell that last part in to the phone…
"What The Hell Did You Do!" Jason yells
Luke hangs up the phone…clears his throat as he tries to look innocent at Jason and Kai's glaring eyes…
"Oops" Luke says as he shrugs his shoulders.
***End of Part V***
