Chapter 3

Liz walked into the locker room at the end of her shift to change. When she got to her locker she noticed it was open. She thought she must have forgotten to close it since she was running late after dropping off the boys. She opened it to pull out her clothes. When she pulled out her jeans a note fell on the floor. She picked it up.

Lizzie, Lizzie, Lizzie

Sam isn't the one you need to be worried about. She's not going to take Jason from you. I am. That is, when I reveal the truth behind your lies. I almost feel sorry for you. When Jason finds out what you did to get him, he'll leave you and your precious little Jake. Well maybe not Jake. You know how he feels about kids. But you know how he feels about liars too, don't you? Well if not, you'll find out. I guarantee it. Guess you were shocked to see her back in town. The look on your face was priceless. Did Jason comfort you well enough? "It's my job to find things out quick? That's how I protect my family" That was golden. Are you trying to figure out who I am? How could I have been that close to hear your conversation and you not notice me? Best place to hide is in plain site. Guess I'll be seeing you but you won't be seeing me. Too bad Sam won't be in town long to find out the truth. I was disappointed when I heard but guess who else is here? I'll give you a hint. Are you feeling, Lucky?

Liz was reeling from this letter. Whoever was doing this was watching her. She still had no idea what they were talking about. They kept calling her a liar. I'm not a liar. I haven't lied. I mean not lately and not to Jason. I lied to Lucky but he knows the truth now. Everything is out in the open. Wait, Lucky is in town too? He's probably here to get Sam. I bet you its Sam doing this. But wait, whoever did this had to have written this after Kelly's. Sam was still at Kelly's when she left. She was so confused. Who? Who could want to scare her by calling her liar? I should tell Jason. Let him know about this since I'm being watched. She decided not to change clothes until after she got home. She suddenly felt like there were a million eyes on her. The truth was there were only two eyes watching as she paced the locker room for a few minutes before looking around and leaving.

"What has Sam been up to all day today?" Jason asked one of the guys that Sonny put on Sam. He had just gotten back after another guy took over.

"Well Mr. Morgan, I began following Ms. McCall at about 10:15 am. She was still in her room at Jake's bar. She left at about 10:30am. After leaving she got in a cab and went to the mall. She went into several stores buying mainly little girls clothes. She went into an electronics store and brought a DVD player and a small pink and white tv. She arranged to have it shipped to the home of Alexis Davis. She then proceeded to a toy store where she purchased a children's kitchen set and again had that sent to Ms. Davis' home. She left the mall at approximately 11:42am and the proceeded to the home of Ms. Davis. She arrived there at 12:10pm. She went in and saw the two little girls and spent 20 minutes talking to Ms. Davis. Then the items she purchased arrived and at 12:30 Ms. McCall and her sisters left there and got into a cab where they went back to the mall and shopped in The GAP and in Banana Republic. At 1:12 they left the mall and headed to Kelly's where they had lunch and you and Ms. McCall had interacted with one another. Upon your exit at 2:32, Ms. McCall stayed at Kelly's until 3:15. She took her sisters to the park until 5:20 pm and then took them home. She went inside the house and stayed for about 2 hours. At 7:30pm she headed back to Jakes bar and went to her room. That is where she was when I changed my shift and Carlo took over."

"Thank you." Jason said.

"No problem, Mr. Morgan."

Jason's phone rang. "This is Morgan." He said.

"Mr. Morgan this is Carlo checking in with a status on Ms. McCall."

"And?"

"Ms. McCall just came out of her room. She's on the phone talking to someone about still meeting up at 10:30"

"Did she say where?"

"No she said that she's gonna be waiting for them here"

"That makes sense. She's supposed to be meeting me there at 10. Guess she wants to get me out the way so she can meet up with whoever that is" Jason thought to himself.

"Okay just keep an eye on her and if she makes a move from there you call me."

"Will do Mr. Morgan."

Jason hoped that after she got the boat she really would leave. He was at the warehouse now. The shipment came in as scheduled with no problems. They just called to say that they were in route from the docks to the warehouse.15 minutes later they were there and everything was secure. Jason started to think. Okay its 8:20 now. I'll head to the house to say goodnight to Liz and the kids. I'll help put the boys in bed and head out about 9:30. Meet up with Sam at 10 and let her have the boat. I'll stick around to play pool and check out who she's meeting. With any luck, she'll be gone without a problem in a couple of days.

Jason showed up to the penthouse and Liz was on the floor picking up toys. She smiled a weak smile when Jason walked in.

"Hey, you're home early." She said while reaching under the couch to recover about 10 out of a million blocks.

Jason walked over to help and got down to start picking up blocks. "I have to go back out. I just came home to help you put the boys down. And I guess to help clean up the blocks. Are they asleep already?" He laughed as she slumped down on the couch.

"Yes thankfully. After dinner they decided to build this huge castle/fortress out of blocks and then Cam keeps building higher. Way beyond Jakes reach and Jake gets upset and knocks the entire thing down. Cam pushed Jake and Jake starts crying then I yell at Cam for pushing his brother and he starts crying because I yelled at him and then I took them both upstairs for a bath and finally after all the crying and a warm bath they passed out in our bed." Jason laughed even harder after hearing the story. "You think that's funny do you?" And she threw a block at him. She grabbed her arm and pulled her on to the floor with him they kissed and playfully rolled around on the floor. Liz ended up on top of Jason. She wanted him so badly. She wished they could have that night alone but they knew how to make love quietly for the children's sake. She looked down at him and he pulled her into a passionate kiss. She pulled back and took off her shirt. He leaned forward and took off his. Somewhere in between kisses both of there pants came off and Jason laid Liz down on the couch and entered her slowly. She took a deep breath and she felt him. Each time with Jason felt like the first time. They were so connected. They just had a rhythm that worked between them. He kissed her breast and neck and she caressed his back. She grabbed his head so that she could stare into his eyes as he made love to her. They didn't need to make noise. The way their bodies moved together expressed how much pleasure they got from each other. Jason started to go faster. He was close to releasing. Liz pulled him close and kissed his neck and she started to shake. Jason came with her and with his final thrust; his body went limp on top of hers.

Liz began to doze off as Jason lay there caressing her body with his fingertips. He rubbed her head and kissed her hair until she was asleep. Then he got up off the couch and slipped his jeans on. He ran upstairs and put the boys in their own beds and then went back to get Liz. He picked her up off the couch and took her upstairs and laid her in their bed. He kissed her again and she stirred slightly. He looked at the clock. 9:39. Jason jumped in the shower and was out the door in record time. He decided to take his bike so that he could get to Jake's faster. He pulled up in front of Jake's at 10:07.

When Jason walked into Jake's he saw Sam playing pool. She was about to make a shot when he walked up behind her and she stopped. She knew his smell. She still remembered it after all this time. She turned around and said "You're late." And went back to making the shot. "So how much?"

Jason didn't realize that he was checking her out as his mind went back to his dream. In his dream they had sex on this very pool table. "Jason, I said how much?"

"Jason looked up and said $20,000."

"And you're sure that's all you want for it? Jason I know that boat has to be worth at least 50 grand."

"And I'm only asking 20. So you can take it and leave." He needed her out of town.

"You must want me gone pretty badly. But that's okay. 20 thousand it is." She picked up the phone and dialed a number. "I need to put that wire transfer through please. Yes. That amount to that account number I gave you. Yes. Okay and it will be clear by the morning? Yes. No. That was all thank you." She hung up the phone. "Okay Jason it was a pleasure doing business with you." And she held out her hand to shake on it.

"So that's it you're leaving?" Jason asked skeptically.

Sam still had her hand extended so she slipped it into Jason's and forced him to shake on it. "Yes Jason I will be leaving. More than likely on Monday. Is that soon enough for you?" She said dropping his hand and turning her attention back to the game.

"Not really Sam. It would be a lot easier if you got on that boat and left tonight but since I know as well as you do that that is not what's going to happen, then I guess I'll have to say fine for Monday. But I do suggest you try to leave a little sooner."

"Okay fair enough but Jason there is one more thing I have to tell you." She was glaring at him.

"Yeah Sam what is it?" He asked. He had barely gotten the words out of his mouth when her hand made a direct connection with his face. "How dare you have me followed you son of a bitch? Who the hell do you think you are?" She was furious. She noticed the guy following her when she left to Kelly's from Alexis' house. He disappeared when they were at Kelly's; that was until Jason left and then he was suddenly reappeared. Even Kristina noticed him saying that Sonny must have put another guard on her because he was at Kelly's and at the mall when they went. Sam had been fine with that because she didn't know if there was anything going on with "the business". It wasn't until she saw the same guy here at Jake's, where Kristina wouldn't be in a million years, that she knew he was there with the distinct purpose of watching her and she didn't like it, not one bit.

Jason held his face, surprised by the fact that she had hit him. That slap actually stung.

His bright blue eyes turned dark with anger. "What did you expect Sam? I don't trust you. I was making sure you didn't try anything."

"Are you really that delusional Jason? Do you really believe that I couldn't move on after two years? You must be fucking kidding me? I don't want you Jason. I don't care that you are with Elizabeth anymore. You made it quite clear where I stand with you, years ago when you threatened to take my life. The same life you used to promise to protect." Sam was shaking now, realizing that half of what she was saying was a lie. She was still attracted to him. She still loved him. She had just reserved herself to the fact that they were over and moved on with her life. She compared her time with Jason to that of her daughter. Their relationship existed as Lila once had inside of Sam. She loved baby Lila with all her heart everyday even though she was gone. This is how she felt about Jason. Sam often cried when she thought about the loss of both Lila and Jason. And above all else Sam knew that no matter how much she wished it, neither one of them could or would come back to her. Sam had to mourn the loss of the two people she had loved most. She never admitted it out loud but this is why she never really gave herself whole-heartedly to Lucky. She would not allow herself to feel a loss that great again. In fact when Lucky started asking about having children, she felt like she needed to run for dear life. She didn't want another man's child. She wanted Jason's. But Sam reserved herself to the fact that she would never have anyone's child. Not even if she could get over Jason.

Jason stood there and watched her face. The look in her eyes went from pure anger, to hurt, to sad, to empty. Just as he was about to speak he and Sam both heard Maxie make her presence known.

"Hey chick. I'm so sorry that I'm a little late. I had to make a quick stop. But it's only a little after 10:30 right? Maxie said coming up to her to give her a hug. "I'm still so happy you're here. I have so much to tell you. Oh, hi Jason." Maxie said looking a little confused by the look on either of their faces. "Did I interrupt something?"

Sam looked at her friend and smiled. "No, not at all. In fact Jason and his associate were just leaving. Now Jason if you don't mind, I would really like to finish my game of pool and then go to the bar and get ridiculously drunk for the rest of the evening. If you don't believe me then feel free to come back and check on me yourself. Now that I've given you my itinerary let me tell you this, if I see someone else following me that works for you, I really will stay around to cause trouble." Sam warned him.

"Sam we're not even close to finish with this conversation."

"But Jason, we are. I'll help you to relax. I am going to play pool for a while, I'll talk to Maxie while she's here, I'll have more than a few shots, probably way too many, and then I'll probably play a couple of songs on the box over there and dance still I can barely stand and some random guy or Coleman over there will carry me up to my room where I will proceed to pass out until sometime tomorrow morning or afternoon. Then when I wake up I will shower and get dressed, curse myself for drinking as much as I did and go down to my big beautiful boat and look around. I'll take it for a spin around the harbor, and get it all gassed up. Then I'll come back to town so that I can get all the supplies that I need. At some point in time I'll eat and come back her to get my things. Depending on how I feel tomorrow I just might drink myself to sleep again because on Saturday I have nothing to do since my sisters are going to be at your son's birthday party. If all goes well I'll be gone Sunday."

"Damn, Samantha. Was there really a need to give him the complete rundown of your time in PC?" Maxie asked. She still felt like something else was going on between them before she came in.

"It doesn't matter how much Sam tells me what she's going to do. She knows that she'll be watched until she gets on that boat and pulls out for good." Jason let Maxie and Sam know. Sam rolled her eyes and walked over to the bar.

"Coleman let me get a double shot of vodka please? Maxie what are you having?"

"I'll have what she's having."

Jason just walked off shaking his head. He told his guy to watch outside. He didn't care what Sam said. He would keep an eye on her even if he had to do it himself. "I'll be back around midnight" He told the watch guy. He got on his bike to take a ride.

Maxie and Sam did exactly what Sam had said. They got pissy fucking drunk. Sam had downed about 8 shots of vodka and 4 tequila shots. She even had a few shots of whiskie. She danced to about 4 songs off the juke box with Maxie right along side her cheering her on. The pair attempted to play a round of pool but it was a sad attempt. They were both shit faced. Jason had come back around 12 and saw that they weren't going to go anywhere for the rest of the night as drunk as those two were. He left out to head home. At about 2:30 Maxie said she needed to get home if she was ever going to get up for work the next day. Sam offered to walk her part way home.

"Cool. But are you sure you're going to make it back here okay?" Maxie asked

"Sure I will. Remember I'm being watched. If I pass out, whatever flunky Jason has watching me, will make sure I get back." She laughed. Then she yelled out to no one in particular. "You hear that you flunky. If I pass out on the way back here from dropping my friend off, you need to make sure I get back here in one piece or Jason will be mad you didn't watch me well enough." Maxie laughed and said, "You are crazy, but let's go." Sam had no idea that Jason had told the guy he had watching her that he could leave because Sam was wasted and wouldn't be able to go anywhere or do any harm. He did tell Coleman to let him know if anything strange happened though after he and the guy, Carlo left out. Coleman was now picking up the phone to dial Jason. "Hey Morgan, its Coleman."

"Yeah what's up" Jason was actually still out. He went for another ride on his bike and was just headed home.

"Your girl is on the move but I don't think she's got anything planned. She thinks she still has someone watching her and she's planning on walking that Jones girl home. They are both trashed out of their minds."

"Okay just let them go. I'll make sure I run into them. Thanks." Jason said indifferently.

"No problem." Coleman responded.

Sam made it to Maxie's house. She had a cute little apartment of her own now just a few blocks away from GH. It was convenient because she could walk to work. Maxie actually decided to become a medical assistant. Sam was now walking back to Jakes when she stopped at the docks. She stopped to look out at the water. It was early May so it was warm with a nice breeze off of the water. The cool breeze actually sobered her up a little. She sat down on the bench and looked at her boat. That was her new start. She would get on that boat and leave all the pain behind. She thought about leaving tonight. I should just get on that boat right now and leave. No goodbyes. No regrets. Shit,she thought to herself. I didn't even get the damn key to the boat from Jason. That means I have to see him again. Her mind strayed. She still felt the effects of the alcohol so she leaned back on the bench and closed her eyes. She imagined Jason's face from earlier when she hit him. For a split second she thought he would hit her back. But Jason would never hit her or any woman for that matter. But then again Jason hated her now. He said he would kill her right? That was way worst than hitting a woman. She remembered the feeling she got when she smelled him behind her. For a split second she wished he would put his arms around her. But she knew better. All Sam had was memories and fantasies now. She had the memories of the times they shared and she fantasized about what would never be. She opened her eyes to look back out at the water. That was her escape. She decided she would get the keys to the boat from Jason in the morning, go shopping in the afternoon and say goodbye to Molly and Kristina and Maxie in the evening. She was going to leave on Saturday while everyone was at Jake's party. She wouldn't even be missed. She stood up to head back to Jake's just as Jason was walking down the stairs. God I don't need this right now, she thought to herself.

"So what you decided to follow me yourself? Look Jason, you really don't have to worry about me okay. I plan on leaving Saturday. I don't want to cause trouble. I just wanted to see my sisters. But am I going to be watched every time I come to see them? Are you really going to treat me like I never meant anything to you?" Sam started to get choked up. Jason didn't say anything with his mouth but his eyes had that "What else do you want me to do?" look in them. "Okay I get it Jason, you want me gone. So how about you give me the key to the boat and I'll leave after I tell my sisters goodbye."

Jason finally spoke. "Sam I came to make sure you got back to Jake's. Coleman called me to tell me that you and Maxie were drunk and trying to walk her home. I pulled the guy off of you when I saw you had way too much to drink around 12. I didn't think you would actually try to leave from there."

"Jason, please don't act like you care about what happens to me. I know that you don't. You just wanted to see what I was up to. Look can I just get the keys and I'll go sleep on the boat. You can go about your business and you won't have to worry about me after tomorrow."

Jason reached in his pocket and pulled out the keys. "I meant to give it to you earlier but I guess I didn't think you were really going to do what you said."

"Yeah well I understand why you feel that way but I'm okay now you can leave." Sam turned away. She started to walk towards the boat when she realized she didn't have anything but this little halter dress she was wearing. Damn. She thought. I'll have to go back to Jake's anyway.

"Sam whats wrong?" He asked.

"Nothing, I'm just tired." She was tired emotionally. She was tired of fighting these feelings. She needed to get them out but she knew better. "Thanks Jason, goodbye."

"Bye Sam" He said and waited for her to get to the boat before he left. She walked down to the end of the dock and walked onto the boat. "Welcome Home Sam" She said to herself. The boat was immaculate. Jason hadn't changed anything. Her clothes were even still there. She remembered the weekend they spent on the boat after he had given it to her. She remembered they made love all over this boat.

Memory sequence

Jason had decided to take Sam on the boat for the weekend. He knew she couldn't wait to be on it. He loved the way she lit up when she talked about the trips they would go on. She talked about how he would watch her from the deck as she dived to discover abandoned treasures. She said that she would drive them to Hawaii to vacation. She was so excited and appreciative. When she walked onto the boat for the first time, Jason had the state room decorated with flowers all over the place. There were red and white roses and white orchids, all of her favorites. She almost cried when she saw it. She had been speechless. He came up behind her and wrapped his arms around her waist. "Do you like it/." He asked. Sam turned to face him and took his face in her hands and said "No. I don't like it. I absolutely love it and I love you." And she pulled him down into a kiss. "I love you too Sam. How do you know you love it if you haven't seen the whole thing?"

"You've seen the whole thing and you know me Jason. If you didn't think I'd love it you wouldn't have brought it for me. I don't need to see it. I loved this boat from the minute you told me about it. Thank you." She pulled him into another kiss. This one was longer and deeper. Jason picked her up and carried her to the bed. He laid her down on the bed and undressed her. He pulled his own clothes off and rolled her onto her stomach. He began to kiss her shoulders and spine. He caressed her back and she moaned. He took one of the roses from a vase and gently brushed its soft petals against her skin. She giggled a little because it tickled. He moved the flower down her legs and across her toes. He replaced the flower with his lips after he had moved it across her entire body. She was now lying on her back. Her scent was now a sweet mixture of her jasmine fragranced lotion and roses. He kissed her neck and breathed her scent in. Her hands were now roaming his body. He moved on top of her and she adjusted her hips to receive him. He leaned in to kiss her and she grabbed his head and pulled him down so her could kiss her deeper. The passionate that this man ignited in her was like no other she had ever felt before. He entered her finally and she took him in deep. She wrapped her legs around his and held onto him for dear life. She kept trying to pull him deeper into her as if to take him inside her completely. She started to cry. He stopped when saw her tears, "Am I hurting you?" "No Jason it's the exact opposite. You're loving me. And it just feels so good. These are tears of complete and pure joy. I never knew it could be like this. Please don't stop." She whispered. "Never" he replied and began to make love to her again. They made love for almost two hours before dozing off in pure bliss, with Sam laying on top of Jason. The entire weekend was like that. They were only 10 miles from the docks of Port Charles, but that weekend Sam and Jason felt like they were 10 million miles away from all the drama that await them when they returned. They cherished this peaceful time together. Before they left the boat on Sunday night Sam and Jason had christened every inch of that boat. On Saturday morning Sam woke up to a bubble bath and convinced Jason to join her. They made love in the tub while Sam straddled Jason. They had gotten water and soap all over the floor so when they got out of the bath tub, Jason slipped and Sam laughed hysterically until Jason pulled her down to the floor with him and they made love again right there on the bathroom floor. They ate breakfast and decided to go for a swim. When they had gotten back, they decided to shower. Jason got in first and Sam decided it would be fun to join him. And boy was it. Later on that evening while Jason made dinner, Sam sat on the counter and they talked and laughed and joked. Sam threw a carrot at Jason and provoked a food fight. That led into a loving making session right there on the kitchen counter and kitchen floor. They managed to have dinner on the living room floor. Everything was perfect. They talked about their future together and another passionate kiss ignited another hot and heavy sex session. Jason fell asleep and Sam threw on Jason's t-shirt and walked out onto the deck. She looked over the railing and stared out at the bay. It was a gorgeous view. She looked up at the stars. She had never been so happy to be with someone. This had to be the real thing. This love must be the one meant to last. It was amazing how much had happened between them and they managed to fall in love anyway. Jason came up behind her and held her close. "I love you." He said. She turned around and laughed. "How did you know what I was thinking?" She said jokingly but serious at the same time. "I guess I was just hoping you felt the same way. You know what they say, wishful thinking and all that." He looked down into her beautiful brown eyes. "Well then, Jason Morgan, I guess wishes really do come true because I love you too. More than I ever could have imagined." He pushed her against the rails and devoured her mouth with his own. He lifted her shirt and began to massage her breast. She melted at his touch. He sucked her neck and nibbled her ear. She felt her legs quiver and go limp below her. He felt this and lay her down right there on the deck and took her. He took her in every way imaginable. He took her mind, body and soul. They made love all over the deck of the boat, under the stars, on the gentle waves of the bay. They lay wrapped up in each others arms and watched the sun come up. They went to bed at almost 7am that Sunday morning. Sam had never felt so much love. She knew when they woke up they would be headed home and back to the madness. She didn't care though. As long as she was with him and he loved her like he did, she could be anywhere and deal with anything.

End memory sequence.

Sam finally fell asleep on the same bed she and Jason had made love on the first time she stepped onto this boat. She had cried herself to sleep as she remembered how good they used to be together.

Author's note: Okay so I know this chapter was long. I have this story all mapped out and I don't know if I should make all the chapters this long or if I should break them into shorter one's. Let me know what you think.
