(Jason's point of view)

It was actually morning. I didn't know if I should still go by Elizabeth's. I had checked in with Francis. He said after Luke and Laura left that Elizabeth and Emily went to see Audrey. I was sure Elizabeth was asleep. I decided to go by Kelly's and get us breakfast.

It was so early that I didn't have to wait. Bobbi was the only one working. She quickly prepared the food. She asked how I was and about Elizabeth. We talked for a moment and then I left. I quietly let myself into the studio. I was getting our breakfast ready when I noticed Elizabeth was restless in her sleep.

"No please don't Lucky. Please don't." Elizabeth cried out clearly still asleep.

"Wake up. Elizabeth." I shouted not wanting to scare her by touching her.

"Lucky stop no. Don't touch me." She screamed in fear.

"Elizabeth its Jason please wake up." I said shaking her lightly.

"No." She screamed jumping off the bed in fear.

"Elizabeth it's Jason. It's okay." I said approaching her slowly.

"Oh Jason." She cried trembling.

"Come here." I said holding my arms out.

"He's gone. I know he is. Why can't I get the nightmare's to stop?" She cried as I held her.

"What are the nightmares about?" I asked her rubbing her back.

"They're different every time." She said.

"What was this nightmare about?" I asked.

"It was the imposter." She said.

"Was it something that really happened?" I asked in fear.

"I haven't told anyone. I couldn't tell them." Elizabeth said.

"Will you tell me?" I asked hoping she would trust me enough.

"The first few weeks he acted like he hated me. Then once we got close he still wouldn't kiss me. Then you came home. The first time he kissed me was bad. He was angry and rough." Elizabeth explained.

"Did he hurt you?" I asked.

"One night he grabbed me. At first it was just kissing. He tried to pull my shirt off. I told him to slow down." Elizabeth answered holding on to me as we sat.

"Then what happened?" I asked not sure if I wanted to hear more.

"He stopped then the next day. He found out you didn't leave town. He blamed me. He said I didn't really want you gone. Then he said if I loved him I would let him make love to me." Elizabeth answered ashamed.

"Did you let him?" I asked.

"I was so scared. I let him take my shirt off. He was moving too fast and being too rough. I said no when he went for my pants. He got pissed. He said I had feelings for you. He tried again the day at Grams. He ripped my shirt off. He let me put one on before Grams came in. Then you know what happened next." Elizabeth answered.

"Why didn't you tell Audrey or Emily or anyone?" I asked.

"It was my fault." She answered.

"No it wasn't. No man has the right to touch you without your permission. And no one should ever pressure you or make you feel like you have to do something." I said glad he was dead.

"You brought breakfast." She said.

"It might be cold." I responded let her get up.

"Thank you Jason for being you." She said as she warmed up breakfast.

"Thank you for telling me." I said so glad she had trusted me.

We ate in silence. She smiled a little. I noticed a new painting. I went over to it. I frowned a little. I wish I could just look at it.

"This is new?" I asked.

"That's us. You're the guard. Lucky is the sprit. And I'm the woman." She said softly.

"I'm the guard?" I asked raising my eye brows.

"You're my guard." She answered with a giggle.

"I don't have my bike. Would you like to go for a walk?" I asked her.

"I'd love to." She answered.

"You might want to grab your sunglasses it's bright out there." I said.

"Thanks Jason." She said kissing my cheek.

We walked to the park. Elizabeth wanted to swing. I laughed a little as she begged for me to push her. I agreed. I loved listening to her laugh as I pushed her higher.

After we left the park we headed to Kelly's. Elizabeth said it was time for her to go back to work. Bobbi was there. She happily gave Elizabeth back her normal shifts.

After we left Kelly's we went to the Pent House. She wanted to see what travel book I was reading. It was one on Austria. She loved it. I wanted to ask about us taking a trip but it was too soon.

We talked about where I traveled while I was gone. She told me a few new places she would love to go. She also told me more about Juan and Emily. I wasn't sure about Emily being involved with a musician. I didn't think my 17 year old sister was ready for that.

Elizabeth reminded me that Emily would do what she wanted to. I knew my opinion could make a difference. I decided that I would have a talk with Emily. Then Elizabeth told me about spending time with her brother. Steven seemed very supportive and really interested in her art. I knew her parents didn't understand so have her Grandmother and older sibling's approval was important.

We went back to the studio. Elizabeth asked more about Sonny and Carly. She smiled a little. I told her that I was really happy for them. I thought they made a great couple. Elizabeth said if they didn't kill each other they would be prefect. I couldn't help agreeing.
