Hello all, sorry it has been so long for an update. I had some problems with my abdomen and it was hard sit up or balance a computer on my lap.

Enjoy!

Chapter 17

"You are a free man for the time being" Dante said to Jason as they were leaving Pentonville

"Whatever you say" Jason said looking out to something he never though as being wonderful…the sight of Port Charles. "I need to see some people"

"Not so fast…you were temporarily released from prison to catch Franco—not plan an escape"

"Listen—I know the risks and consequences. I want to see the people I care about and make sure they are okay"

"You do realize Franco is going to target people you care about; the longer you wait the more chance of such things happening"

"You check in with Lulu right? You make sure that she is safe. Let me do the same and then we can get right to work"

"Fine. But I am coming with you" Dante said and rolled his eyes

Jason called Spinelli to tell him he would be home later and to get started on Franco. Then Dante drove Jason to Carly's

"Jason, what are you doing here" she screeched and then hugged him "I am serious. Why?"

"I got out of Pentonville to help find Franco."

"I know that—but why aren't you with Sam"

"How did you know?"'

"Lulu told me about it earlier but I do not think Sam knows…go surprise her and spend and unforgettable welcome home night together"

"I just wanted to make sure you and Josslyn were safe and okay?"

"We are…security is fully in place by Jax and the police. Plus I have you on speed dial…well except for tonight. Go find Sam" she cheered

"He cannot do that yet" Dante said showing himself to Carly

"Why is he here?"

"I am responsible for Jason—he is not going to be spending his first night with his girlfriend to make an escape plan"

"He would not do that—he wants Franco caught for me, Spinelli, Josslyn, Michael and Sam. Why would he run out on the people he cares about?"

"He gets to see Sam but not stay—we have work tonight"

"Shouldn't you get home to Lulu and let Jason see Sam. Why is it fair that you two get to be together and Jason does not when he is helping catch a serial killer?"

"It is okay Carly. As long as I get to see Sam—I am happy" he winked

SAMS APARTMENT

Jason and Dante arrived at her door. It was late and knowing Sam was a night owl, he hoped she were up. He knocked on the door once.

"Maybe she is not home…she works as a P.I; maybe there was a case" Dante said in hopes of getting to work soon"

"She is home—I smell Chinese food" he smiled looking forward to eating squid over prison food. Jason knocked on more time and then heard footsteps.

Sam heard a knock on the door as she was getting into her bed but ignored it hoping it was a mistake. She turned on the T.V but then heard another knock "I was actually tired till now" she yelled but not loud enough for the person to hear. "Is there something I can do for you" Sam looked up but it did not hit her

Jason was pleased when the door opened and he saw Sam; dressed in a silky robe with a tank and shorts underneath. He just smiled waiting for her reaction.

Sam thought she was dreaming when the man knocking looked like Jason, so she slammed the door in his face "Pinch me, I am dreaming" she whispered

"Well that went well, as you can she did not want to see you" Dante said but just Jason smiled and knocked on the door again.

She opened the door "JASON" and jumped into his awaiting arms "I thought I was dreaming" she said still grasping onto him

"I missed you so much" he said into her ear and looked over to Dante who seemed to be uncomfortable during Jason and Sam's intimate moment. Jason lowered her down and at that point did not care about the audience and landed a kiss on her lips in which she full heartedly took.

When they stopped kissing, Dante finally spoke up "I am going to go home and kiss the woman I love too" he smiled "I expect to see you early tomorrow at your Penthouse"

"I make no promises" Sam smiled and pulled Jason in her apartment, shutting the door with a bang

They sat on the couch, cuddled into each other "So, because Franco is a threat they let me out as bait to catch him. I am just happy to be here with you"

"That makes two of us. I miss you just holding me" Sam turned around and looked at him and he nodded. Jason took her hand and headed to the bedroom where they layed down facing each other placing small kisses on her lips. Sam woke up in the middle of the night and straddled herself on Jason's torso—he woke up slowly.

"Hi" Jason said softly "Are you okay?"

"Yeah. I just don't want to get too happy"

"I know. Just ignore the fact I have to go back once Franco is caught…we both know Diane is going to fight and get me released. Don't worry" he said and then cupped her safe

"I won't." she smiled and leaned down to kiss him. He then turned her over on her back making her giggle.

The next morning they woke up intertwined not wanting to leave each other but Sam knew he had a job to do. Jason got dressed as Sam watched still lying in her bed. He gave her a kiss and then started the coffee machine for her "Get up, sleepy head."

"I will. I love you" she sat up and brought him into a hug "Good luck with finding Franco and I am really glad your back" she smiled

"Come by later?" he questioned and she nodded. Then he placed another kiss on her lips and left. Sam fell back on her bed throwing her feet in the air like a little kid. Even though they were unsure on how long Jason would be out, Sam felt lucky for last night.

I wanted to make it sweet, yet sensual. Comments would be great!
