He finds comfort and happiness in an unlikely place.Knock-Knock."Yeah, yeah, who is it?" Alexis comes down the stairs in a soft cotton pajama set.She opens the door and smiles at Jason."Hi." She says awkwardly"What are you doing here? And WHY doesn't my key work?" Jason says with a grin"Sonny said I could rent this penthouse-You know since he always needs me andinterrupts me continuously. We just thought this might be easier.""It's fine really." Jason starts across the hallway thinking in his head where hewill live now that the penthouse is occupied. It's no big deal to him."Well, come visit anytime." Alexis feels a bit embarrassed that no one told Jasonhe hasn't a place to call home in Port Charles.Jason and Sonny talk of their plans for the now captured Sorrel, Carlos, and Rick.Days go by and now Jason lives above the warehouse. He sits by the window andwatches Liz sketch on the pier. Warm days remind him of her most. Days when theair is windy and everything moves. Days when the world's most drab places lookbeautiful. If only he could call to her to join him. He knows of a back entrancethat Lucky would never suspect. But he can't. He must respect her wishes. It hasbeen so long that his heart is beginning to turn cold and his bad boy ways areever present.After a fight with Ned, Alexis goes to Jake's where she feels she can let her hairdown. Standing by the jukebox she sees Jason."Any Willie Nelson on there?" She nudges him on the shoulder"No, no I don't think so." He smilesAlexis clearly looks upset and he asks her if she wants to sit down and talk."Me and you are from two different worlds, "she starts"You act and THEN think of the consequences, and I am very task oriented-I THINKTOO MUCH. My life with Ned just isn't working out. I don't know if I am overanalyzing our differences or if I am just afraid of losing myself. It scares me. Idon't just want to be an attorney who is married to a Quartermaine. I want to havefun-I want to be an EDDIE MAINE girl."The Ned who wears the business suit is Quartermaine through and through and thisis what she is running from. Jason understands this all too well since he haslived life with the dysfunctional family over half his time on earth.
"I know they can get to you." He tells her any situation that brings herunhappiness and intimidation is one she should separate herself from."You wanna have some fun?" He asks her if she would like to play a game of pool.She tells him that she doesn't know how. Jason stands up and wipes his handsacross the legs of his faded jeans."I'll show you, come on."Alexis takes off her jacket and uncovers a beautiful pink, silk blouse. She takesoff her pearls and hands them to Jason."No more attorney."She continues to take her hair out of the bun and gives it a toss. She walks overto the pool table.Jason explains the game and stands behind her to help her line up her first shot.He looks at the body he never knew she had and is taken by her sweet smell. As heleans in, talking to her, he smells her hair and is instantly reminded ofElizabeth's smell and the day they played pool. He backs away."You can take it from here." He saysThey continue on playing."See your a pro."He and Alexis smile and trade small talk. When the game is over, she hugs him andthanks him for lending and ear to her never ending worries."Anytime."Weeks go by and Sonny and Carly have taken Michael to the island. It has beenthree weeks since Jason has seen little Michael. He has comfortably settled abovethe warehouse and is more at ease and acceptance over Lucky and Elizabeth. Heoften watches her and sees that her life with Lucky is near perfect. He doesn'tworry for her and his heart is no longer restless. He does feel the restlessnessfrom not seeing Michael though, and he lets himself into Alexis' apartment with anextra key that Sonny has. Standing in front of the window where he always heldlittle Michael and read to him, the moonlight glistens in his eyes. His heartpounds with the thought of memories. He has missed so much.When Alexis returns home Jason doesn't explain why he is there. He looks at Alexisand tells her to never miss out on an opportunity -to grab it and seize it. He isfeeling enormous betrayal and emotion as he remembers how Robin changed the wholecourse of his life with Michael by telling AJ he was his father."I never should've let them win. I should've taken Michael as far away from PortCharles as possible. Now I’ve missed time, YEARS with him."Alexis goes on to tell him how happy Michael is with Carly and Sonny."I don't question that. I just wish I could have had my time with him, like Ialways thought it would be."
Alexis goes on to ask Jason if he is there because he misses the Michael."Yes."What Jason says makes sense to Alexis and she knows that she will feel smotheredand unhappy being a Quartermaine. She only has one life and she wants to live itwildly. She doesn't even want to be an attorney right now. Jason's bad boy waysare more influential now than ever. She heads upstairs and tells Jason to stay aslong as he would like. He does.In the morning when she walks down the steps, she glances at the golden hair andperfectly shaped biceps of the man lying on her couch. She takes a closer look.His jeans are unbuttoned and half unzipped, and his belly button is the sexiestthing she has ever seen. She walks around to the front of the couch and stares.His shirt is lying on the floor. She picks it up and smells it. It is luscious,just like Jason. She sees her pearls on the coffee table. As she turns to pickthem up, the tie from her satin robe grazes against Jason's arm. He wakes and sitsup. When Alexis, trying to be very quiet, turns around, she is positioned directlybetween Jason's knees and very close to him."I believe that is mine." He takes his shirt from her."I am so sorry,-No, better yet, embarrassed."She turns a slight shade of flushed red. Jason smiles at her and says nothing. Hepulls her to him."Sit with me. I never knew how beautiful you are."She just smiles."What is this? What are we doing?" She asksAlexis questions the growing chemistry and tells Jason that she has been noticinghim more and more with each passing day."It's strange, I don't know if this is right."He looks at her and tells her to just go with her feelings and worry later aboutthe consequences."Learn to let yourself go." He gently brushes her hair back from her face. Themorning sunbeams dance through the window."I have to go." She tells Jason"No Alexis, if you’re uncomfortable, let me go. After all, this is your placenow." He smiles and stands. Soon he leaves and they both know what will happen ifthey are left alone again.Months go by and Ned and Alexis have long since separated and Jason's heart isn'tas cold as it used to be. After all, business is good, Michael is home, and he hashis new found friendship with Alexis. She has since lessened her clientele toSonny and a few others.
