Rage

He had to go home, he knew it and she knew it. His father had been calling around for him. AJ never made it to school, according to Emily he got into a fight. His father was pissed and the next person he’d go after was Emily. Jason had to go home, he spent the day pushing Courtney off him and looking for Webber. Around three Nik told him had to leave on an emergency, that she’d call him when she got home.

So Jason Morgan sucked up his courage and walked into his house. A.J. sat watching T.V. arm in a sling. Face beat up; he looked up at his brother in disgust.

-Finally climb out of that bitch long enough to come home?-
-Fuck you. What’d you do?-
-Nothing.-
-Then what pissed him off.-
-Momma.-
-She ain’t my mother.- Jason snapped.
-Yeah well he tired to kill her, so I stepped in.-
-Why if he did kill her then we’d be free.-
-You know you’re a fucking idiot.-A.J. said jumping up.
-I’m the idiot? A.j.-
-Listen, we can’t change what we get but can make sure Em gets none of it. That means we help each other out, so he don’t kill one of us, because if he dose who’s he going to replace us with?- His brother told him.

Jason blinked.

-If that’s how you see it then there is something wrong with us. Not him.-
-There nothing we can do to stop him Jase you know that.- A.J. sighed.
-Yes there is rich or not this shit doesn’t happen with out consequences in the real world. This is the real world you better live it or you children will be having this conversation about you.-

AJ blinked and Jason when upstairs to his room.

-Jason I need to speak with you.- His father called.
-Yes sir.-
-Where have you been?-

Jason didn’t hesitate.

-With a girlfriend.-
-Courtney or Sarah?-
-Neither sir.-
-What then don’t fucking play games with me boy.- His father snapped.
-Her names Liz Webber sir.-
-I know who that is, Sarah sister. Sarah says her sister’s a screw up a drug addict, rape victim worthless. Are you wasting the time I put into you!.-
-No sir, Sarah jealous.-
-Oh?-
-Liz never used drugs and the rape was years ago. She has a job and hi…second highest GPA in the state.-

Alan took this in and looked at his son.

-She got any money?-
-Yes sir.-
-Sluts all of them including your mother. Check on her on your way to your room.- The man said turning to his bookcase.

Jason swallowed and went to his mother’s bed room. She was on the floor in the corner crying and bleeding. Jason curse and went to check on her.

-Are you okay.-
-You don’t give a fuck.-
-No but like you I’ve got to fallow orders.-

She looked at him in disgust. Rolling over in pain, as Jason tired to pick her up. He placed her on the bed and looked at her. This could easily be Emily, that’s when Jason made is decision he had to get out. So he and Emily could live and be happy. He’d have to deal with the pain that was coming.

Jason sat in his room, listening to his mother beg his father to stop is attacks. He was accusing her of cheating on him, he heard a loud crash and after years of training didn’t even jump to see what was happening. He heard his mother scream in pain…

-Did I break it! You pathetic bitch did I break it!-

She screamed again, louder like animal wounded.

-There now it’s fucking broken. Call and ambulance tell them you fell down the stairs. Stop sniveling you bitch you want me to break something else? Good girl, good bitch, after three children and so many years I’d think you know by now. Clearly not with those fucks up you call children. Jason and Emily maybe salvageable. That A.J. is clearly your work, trash that boy but at least he listens to me. Just like you do after something’s broken.-

Alan walks into Jason room.

-Clean her up before the ambulance comes. I’m at work.-
-Yes sir.-

Jason to get out of the bed and went into his mother’s room. Good he gets sicker each year, his mother was once again on the floor arm twisted in an unusual manner. Her face was bleeding, eye completely closed he didn’t even touch her. He made the call and went with her to the hospital.

-Excuse me young man, is that women your mother?-
-Yes sir.-
-What happened to her?-
-He beat her and broke her arm.-

Everything went still just then, like he was listening for the sound. The sound of Alan coming after him just like when he was a child hiding in his closet. He couldn’t bear to cover his ears, not to listen so he could run if Alan came. But he didn’t Alan didn’t come, no one did.

-Young man, young man who attacked her?-
-My father did, his name is Dr. Alan Quatermain. He hits my mother, my brother and me. I have a sister but he hasn’t gotten to her yet. He’s been beating us for years and they cover it up for him.-

Jason didn’t realize that he was crying by now. He just stared at the people in General Hospital they all knew Alan some respected him, some feared him.

-If that’s true then a lot of people will pay for this. What’s your name son?-
-Jason, Jason Morgan. I need to protect my sister he’ll hurt her.-
-We’ll get her out of the house do you have someplace to go?-
-I do but they don’t.-
-You mother and brother?-
-Yes.- Jason sniffed. He pulled out his phone and with shaky hand dialed.

Her voice was soft, she was still asleep. He was so tired he could fight this one alone.

-Hey babe?-
-I need you. Please, please come and get me.-
-Where are you Jason?- She said suddenly alert at the sound of his voice.
-GH, I brought my mother in.-
-I’ll be there in fifteen minutes. Don’t go anywhere alone baby okay.-
-O...Okay.-
-Was that your girlfriend.-
-No we’re not…yes it was.-

Liz walked into the Hospital in a panic she looked around for him finally she found him slumped against a wall talking to a detective. She walked to him and right into his arms, Jason broke down, for her not the first time and for them both not the last. His tears and silent sobs, pulling at her heart.

-Are you okay?-
-He just beat and beat her, and he broke it like it was twig. I was just going to do what I always do and clean her up and take her to the hospital but I couldn’t, I couldn’t I just kept seeing you and Emily and I thought if it was you, if it was then I had to stop it before he kills us. I just told them the truth for once, I was so scared.-
-Shh baby you’ll be okay maybe not now but you will be and happier once this is over.-

Alan came down to check on his family Jason was in the arm some girl. And there was police detective the nurse where all looking at him.

-Alan Quartermain?-
-Yes what’s happened?-
-You’re under arrest for assault and battery.-
-What?-
-Your son told us that you beat your wife nearly to death.-
-That boy delusional he’s had history of mental illness.-
-He told us that to. We spoke his doctors already.-
-Then you know.- He said looking the detective in the eyes.

The man frowned and nodded at his arm.

-What happened to your hand Dr. Quatermain?-
-Wha…What?-
-What happened to your hand?-
-I…- Alan blinked and stammered for an answer.

He looked at Jason sternly, the boy will tell them he made this shit up. That girl touched him and Jason eyes turned as cold as his. Alan looked at her she was small and ordinary he’d be rid of her soon enough.

They put the cuffs on him and the hospital watched as he was dragged out cursing and spitting. He was demanding his lawyers and cursing Jason and saying he was lying. Nurse and doctors looked at Jason in disgust.

-What the fuck are you all looking at? Take a look at Dr. Alan’s wife and then go about your fucking business.- Liz yelled.

She snatched Jason up and out of the hospital.

-I have to get Emily.-
-Don’t worry, I called Nik he went to get her. She’s fine.-
-A.J.?-
-I don’t know he wasn’t in the house when I called. No one was.-
-What do I do now?-
-Sleep.-
-I can’t…Web I need you please, I need you so much.-
-Okay baby, don’t worry. I’ll take you home.-

They got to her Loft and he kissed her with a passion he didn’t know he had. He carried her to the bedroom and kissed her long and deep. Liz lifted his face and looked at him, he began to cry. She pulled him to her and he sobbed against her neck.

-Now you’re healing.- She whispered.
