"I don't even know what you're talking about. You know there isn't anything going on between Brenda and I. It's not like that. I'm just helping her out. I really didn't think this would bother you," Jason answered. He already could tell Sonny thought he had betrayed him. Sonny should know that there was nothing romantic going on between him and Brenda though.
"What do you mean you didn't think Brenda staying here would bother me? It's causing me problems with Carly. Carly screaming isn't really a pleasant thing to hear. I know Brenda has something planned," Sonny replied. He could feel his blood pressure rising. The truth was he wanted Brenda to stay here. He just couldn't let anyone know, especially Carly. He loved the fact that Brenda was only one door down from him. It was good for him but bad for his marriage.
"I couldn't just let her have no place to stay and it's not permanent. She's looking for a job now so she can save up some money and get a place of her own," Jason said. He could tell that Sonny still loved Brenda. He wouldn't be making such a big deal of this if he didn't. It wasn't his fault that Sonny still loved Brenda though. Brenda shouldn't have to deal with not having a place to stay just because Sonny can't get over her.
"I can see that this conversation isn't going to go anywhere. I really thought I could trust you Jason and then you go and pull something like this," Sonny replied. He left Jason's slamming the door shut behind him. This couldn't be happening. This wasn't going to end good for him. He could see that already.
Brenda left the boutique. She couldn't believe she actually got the job. All the other jobs she applied for said she was too inexperienced and they didn't have a place for an ex model. She was just happy she actually got a job. Brenda started heading back to Jason's. she wanted to tell him the good news. Brenda ran into Jax when she wasn't watching where she was walking.
"Sorry, I didn't see you there," Brenda apologized. She started walking again. Jax was the last person she wanted to see right now. She was still hurt after what he did. She really loved him and he just threw her out so he could fix things with Skye.
"Wait, we haven't talked in a while," Jax said grabbing her arm. He knew Brenda didn't want to talk to him right now. He couldn't blame her. He could tell that she was still hurt after what happened between them. He just didn't think she was ever going to get over Sonny completely. He couldn't deal with that again. He's already lost her to Sonny enough times. He knew Skye would never leave him for Sonny though.
"I don't know if I'm ready to talk to you yet Jax. What you did was messed up. I really thought we could work out this time," Brenda replied quietly. She didn't feel like doing this right now. She just wanted to get back to Jason's. At least she knew Jason wouldn't hurt her. She and Jason didn't even really like each other. Living with Jason was safe for her. There wouldn't be any hurt feelings and she could prove to herself and everyone else that she was finally over Sonny.
"Well how have you been aside from everything else?" Jax asked. He felt bad for what he did. She didn't even have a place to stay when he threw her out. He wanted to at least know that she had found somewhere or someone she could stay with.
"I've been fine. I'm actually staying with Jason and I just got a job so I should have my own place soon," Brenda answered. She knew Jax would have an opinion about her staying with Jason. He would just see that as her trying to get back with Sonny like everyone else did.
"I thought you two couldn't stand each other?" Jax asked. That was right next door to Sonny she was living. He knew Brenda wasn't over Sonny. At least he got out before his heart was broken again.
"Yeah well Jason saw me crying on the docks and offered to let me stay with him for a little bit," Brenda replied. She went back to walking. She didn't feel like dealing with this right now.
"Brenda, I'm sorry I hurt you. I didn't mean for things to end like that. You have every right to be mad at me right now. What I did was messed up. I should have never treated you like that. I'm so sorry," Jax said honestly. He didn't mean to hurt her like this. She couldn't even talk to him for five minutes. He felt so bad for doing this to her. He didn't want her out of his life. He still doesn't want her out of his life even knowing that she isn't over Sonny.
"I just can't deal with this right now Jax. I just can't," Brenda replied crying. She ran back to Jason's as fast as she could. She just couldn't deal with any of this right now. She wasn't ready to face Jax yet. Brenda stood out front of Jason's and turned around to leave. She just needed to be alone right now. She couldn't be around anyone right now. She needed to think about things. She just needed to clear her head. The truth was, she really didn't even know what she needed right now. All she knew was she wanted to be alone right now.
