Part 1
It was the week before Valentine’s Day and Elizabeth was tying to make things work with Lucky again. He had been gone for so long and she did not feel the connection she had had with him anymore. She had spent the time while he was gone getting to know someone knew, Jason Morgan. He had been her friend, but now Lucky was back and he did not want to her to have anything to do with Jason. So she figured that he deserved that much. But she was not sure that was what she really wanted, he was her friend, why should she have to loose a friend that was there for her just because Lucky was back. She did not know.
“Lucky please, come over here.”
“Why, you going to talk about Jason more?”
“Lucky where did that come from. Jason is my friend, he was there for me while you where gone. Why can’t I stay his friend?”
“Because you like him more than a friend.”
“No I don’t we are friends, close friends, but only friends.”
Lucky reached over and grabbed Elizabeth and pulled her close to him.
“Make love to me Elizabeth.”
“Lucky, not know, I have to be at work in 5 minutes.”
“See you won’t make love to me, because you love him.”
“No Lucky, I have to go to work. Now let me go.”
“No way, stay here.”
Elizabeth pulled back.
“Lucky I have to go to work. Please relax while I am gone and I love you.”
She kissed him and walked down the stairs to work. Penny was standing there.
“Elizabeth what is wrong?”
“Oh, just Lucky again, he thinks I am going to leave him for Jason.”
“I would.”
“Penny, Jason and I are just friends.”
“Elizabeth, please I see the way you look at each other.”
“I am with Lucky, he came back.”
“Elizabeth he is not the same boy that left you though, you and I both know that.”
“Yes he has changed but he was kidnapped and held hostage, don’t you think you would be different after that too.”
“Yeah I guess I would, but I don’t think he is safe. I don’t want to see you hurt.”
‘Thank you Penny but I am ok.”
“Ok, consider the subject dropped.”
Elizabeth and Penny worked their shifts. Life went on as usual for everyone. It was Valentine’s Day and Elizabeth had just finished her shift working at Kelly’s and was walking along the docks. She saw a fire in a building in front of her. Her whole body frooze, she could not believe this a fire on this day. She ran toward he building, Carly was standing there crying.
“Oh my god Carly, who is in there?”
“Sonny is, Jason just went into get him.”
“I can’t loose Sonny, he is my rock.”
“Carly, it will be ok, Jason will bring him out.”
“Elizabeth thank you, I need that positive attitude.”
“We can stand here and wait together.”
“Oh Elizabeth thank you, this must be hard for you, a fire and all.”
“Yeah all the old memories came back to mw when I say the fire, but I am ok. Jason will bring Sonny out and everything will be fine.”
Elizabeth and Carly stood there and continued to talk for a short time. They heard something fall in the building. Carly grabbed Elizabeth. Then they looked up and there was Sonny. Carly jumped from Elizabeth’s embrace and ran to Sonny. Elizabeth just stood there, Jason had not come out. Her heart was breaking, Jason was gone in a fire now. Just then Lucky walked up.
“Happy Valentine’s Day babe.”
He handed her a bouquet of flowers. She took them and smiled at him.
“Thank you Lucky, Happy Valentine’s Day.”
Lucky leaned in for a kiss. But there was a noise from the building. Elizabeth turned her head and Lucky started to fall forward. Elizabeth did not notice though, Jason had stepped out of the building and was standing there covered in fire smut. The flowers fell from Elizabeth’s hand. Lucky grabbed her hand.
“Elizabeth lets go, everyone is ok.”
Elizabeth pulled away from Lucky.
“Lucky no go home.”
She ran over to Jason and grabbed him. She held him tight and reassured him that he was ok. Jason grabbed on to her and did not let go. This is what he had wanted for a long time, since before Lucky came back, but he knew she was hurting then and did not want to hurt her more. Then Lucky came back and he did not want to confuse her more than she was, cause she was with the love of her life now, even though he was not the same.
“Elizabeth, lets go,” Lucky said.
Elizabeth did not let go of Jason.
“Lucky, no I can’t, I am where I belong.”
Jason could not believe what he was hearing.
“No, can’t be, we have a pack remember.”
“No I had a pack with my Lucky. You are not him, I am sorry.”
“But you told me that you where only friends with Jason, what is this.”
“Lucky I don’t know, but I yes I am friends with Jason and maybe it will become more maybe not. But that has nothing to do with you and me.”
“But you are leaving me for him.”
“Yeah maybe I am, and for that I am sorry Lucky, but I have to.”
“But.”
“Don’t but me please, this is the way it is going to be.”
The limo pulled up to take Sonny, Carly and Jason to the penthouse.
“Jason come on lets go home.”
Elizabeth pulled away.
“Ok, Jason take care, I will talk to you later.”
“No you are coming with me.”
“Jason are you sure?”
“I have never been more sure about anything else in my life.”
Jason took Elizabeth’s hand and they walked to the limo and got in.
“Elizabeth thank you for standing with me. As much as it hurts me to say this you did the right thing.”
“Thank you Carly.
They rode in silence to the penthouse. The two couples went into their respective apartments.
“Jason, you need to go take and hot back and shook.”
“Yeah I am not a bath person but that sounds nice. I think I will rinse off in a shower first and then do the bath.”
“Cool, I will wait for you down here.”
“Elizabeth it is a big hot tub like bath, will you join me.”
Elizabeth just stood there for a minute.
“It is ok, I understand if you don’t want to, but if you change your mind, you know where my bathroom is, I will be up there.”
Jason went up and went to his bedroom and hopped in the shower. Elizabeth stood downstairs for a few minutes. Then she made her decision and went up to the bathroom, she started the hot water. She poured in some of the bubble bath that was sitting there. Elizabeth giggled a little when she realized it was what she uses. She got herself undressed and climbed in the tub. Five minutes later Jason walked in.
“Elizabeth you decided to join me.”
“Yeah, and my favorite bubble bath.”
“I know I wanted to remember your smell for always.”
“That is sweet.”
Jason dropped the towel that was wrapped around him. Elizabeth turned her head. Jason got in the tub with her.
“Elizabeth why did you look away.”
“That is not why and I am here.”
“Yeah I know, but I was not bashful about that, so why should you be?”
“I just am ok.”
Jason slid back against the edge of the tub. Elizabeth settled back into him. He wrapped his arms around her. She rested her hands on his.
“Elizabeth thank you for today, I needed it.”
“No it was what I needed. I am sorry you had to be in that fire, but it opened my eyes and it made me realize what we could have.”
“Yeah me too.”

“Make love to me Elizabeth.”
“Lucky, not know, I have to be at work in 5 minutes.”
“See you won’t make love to me, because you love him.”
“No Lucky, I have to go to work. Now let me go.”
“No way, stay here.”
