Chapter
12 - Telling Cameron & Carly
A
few days later Sonny and Alexis had decided to break the news to
Cameron and Carly praying that they wouldn't hate them - Alexis
wasn't so worried about Cameron it was more Carly she was worried
about. But Sonny had assured her that he'd take care of Carly, as
long as she let the good doctor know what had happened. Gina had
taken Kristina to the park so Alexis would have some quiet time
to tell Cameron the truth. When the doorbell rang Alexis answered
it wearing a pair of jeans, and a blue blouse, and a matching cardigan
with her hair up in a ponytail.
Cameron:
"You look great!" He exclaimed kissing Alexis on her cheek
before entering PH2.
Alexis:
"Thanks! You look great too - I really want to thank you for
keeping me grounded back when Kristina was kidnapped." She
replied, as she closed the door shut.
Cameron:
"I think that Sonny was the main reason you didn't fall apart.
I saw you two up in the nursery - you've become close, huh?"
He asked sitting down on the couch.
Alexis:
"That's actually what I wanted to talk to you about too - I
don't think that I have to tell you how important you've been for
both Kristina and I
" She explained sitting down next
to him on the couch.
Cameron:
"But?" He asked knowing there was a 'but' coming.
Alexis:
"The thing is that Sonny and I have been getting closer, and
I feel that it's important for him to spend as much time as possible
together with his daughter, and also
"
Cameron:
"What?"
Alexis:
"Sonny and I made love after you and Jax left the night that
Kristina had been kidnapped. Sonny and I got to talking like we
used to, and I saw a part of him that I haven't seen since he went
back to Carly."
Cameron:
"Alexis
What happens the next time Carly does something
redeemable? He'll just take her back again!"
Alexis:
"I have faith in Sonny and our love, and Kristina is a very
big part of our decision to make our love work. I've been kidding
myself for too long because I was scared of following my heart like
I did with Ned. I've always thought of my mother and Mikkos and
how that turned out, but I know now that I've got to put my heart
out there, and I know in my heart of hearts that Sonny will treasure
it this time around."
Cameron:
"I care about you Alexis, and I know how much Zander cares
about you, and you have to look at the fact that you're not only
putting yourself at risk but also Kristina. People are trying to
kill Sonny - can you live with that aspect for the rest of your
life?"
Alexis:
"I have to trust Sonny and our love, and what I'm doing is
FOR Kristina - she needs her father, and frankly he needs her too."
Cameron:
"I don't mean to be negative here but there's a lot of stuff
you've got to consider. How about Carly? You know that she's not
going to let you have Sonny. And what about Jax? He and Sonny have
never gotten along!"
Alexis:
"That's Jax' problem - if he wants to stay close friends with
me he has to accept the man I'm in love with. I know that this must
be a shock for you Cameron but I can't ignore my heart any longer!"
Cameron:
"I want you to be happy Alexis - that's all I've ever wanted
but you need to face your new life! It's not going to be any picnic!"
Alexis:
"I know that, but I'm certain that together with Sonny I can
make it work. I know that it will be hard for people to see me with
the local 'mob boss' but dammit Cameron: he's my 'mob boss'!!"
She exclaimed walking to her desk tired of having to make excuses
over loving Sonny.
Cameron:
"I don't mean to get you down Alexis but once you do this there's
no going back - you'll be on the mind of every man or woman Sonny
has ever disrespected. Can you live with that, and do you really
want Kristina to go through that?" He asked getting up from
the couch and, joining her next to the desk.
Alexis:
"I want to give Kristina the kind of security and family I
never had, and I'm sorry if Sonny isn't the kind of father figure
you've wanted Kristina to have but he's a good man Cameron underneath
it all he's a loving man, who's had a tough life."
Cameron:
"All right
I actually had a feeling that this was what
you'd want to talk to me about!" He revealed knowing that he'd
never get her to change her mind.
Alexis:
"How?"
Cameron:
"Well
When I saw you and Sonny together in the nursery
I was reminded of Zander's mom and I. We were like that until that
terrible accident in the woods that cost Zander's brother his life."
Alexis:
"I want you to know that you can always talk to me about Zander
- even if I am together with Sonny, OK?" She asked hugging
him tightly, as Cameron ran his hands up and down Alexis' back.
Cameron:
"All right and I promise to talk to Jax, and get him to give
you and Sonny some slack, OK?"
Alexis:
"That would be great, and don't go around thinking you won't
be a part of Kristina's life anymore. You're practically the reason
she's alive today. I don't know what I would have done if you hadn't
come that evening in the park after Alcazar had left me there in
labor."
Cameron:
"Luckily we'll never know - Kristina is healthy and beautiful
just like her mother - good luck Alexis - I mean it!" He exclaimed
exiting PH2 after kissing Alexis goodbye on the cheek.
When
Sonny arrived at 'Kelly's' he met Courtney, who looked pretty angry,
and Sonny could tell that it had something to do with Carly.
Sonny:
"Hey Courtney
What's wrong? Is Carly OK?" He asked,
as Courtney looked him in the eyes with a look that said 'what do
you think?'
Courtney:
"I'm beginning to think that my friendship with Carly has been
idiotic! She just blew up at me for having defended Alexis when
Carly called her a woman with no mother skills whatsoever. I'm telling
you Sonny if she wasn't married to you
"
Sonny:
"That might not be the case for much longer!"
Courtney:
"Are you serious? You're divorcing Carly - why?"
Sonny:
"Because I'm in love with Alexis, and I have to make her happy,
and I won't lose her a second time because of Carly's games."
Courtney:
"Congrats!" She smiled hugging Sonny tightly before leaving
to give Sonny a chance to talk to Carly. Sonny walked into 'The
Cellar', which was Carly's new club instead of 'Club 101'.
Carly:
"Listen Ned! I got Kristina away from Sonny, and I passed her
onto you - I want my Goddamn money!!" She screamed into the
receiver, as Sonny entered the club.
Ned:
"I'm in jail Carly! How exactly are you counting on me giving
you money from in here?"
Carly:
"But
" She whined, as Sonny intently listened to
the conversation between Ned and Carly.
Ned:
"Goodbye Carly!" He shouted hanging up.
Carly:
"Ned! Are you there?"
Sonny:
"So
Ashton has turned against you too? That's not nice
is it Carly?" He asked making Carly feel a chill down her spine,
as she turned around to see a mad Sonny Corinthos staring right
back at her.
Carly:
"Sonny? Ashton? That wasn't Ned Ashton
That was my business
associate Ned
Jensen - that's right Ned Jensen!"
Sonny:
"STOP LYING TO ME CARLY - GAME'S OVER!!" He yelled before
grabbing her arm.
Carly:
"Sonny
You're hurting me!"
Sonny:
"You think this is painful? Then how about realizing that your
only child has been taken my some madman? Or how about having an
epiphany when you find out that the woman you ONCE loved kidnapped
your child in exchange for an amount of money she could just have
asked her husband for?!!" He yelled with tears in his eyes.
Carly:
"I wasn't you I wanted to hurt Sonny - it was
"
Sonny:
"Alexis, right?"
Carly:
"Yeah
You understand that right?"
Sonny:
"Do I understand that you'd inflict so much pain on a woman,
who's done nothing to you other than being civil with you? I'd have
to say no to that one Carly!"
Carly:
"Has Alexis been civil to me? Where did you get that load of
crap? She slept with my husband?"
Sonny:
"Ex-husband!" He corrected her, but Carly just brushed
it off saying
Carly:
"Alexis knew that you were taken Sonny - she knew that you
were still in love with me, and since when has Alexis hired you
to do her bidding?"
Sonny:
"I've come to tell you that I'm filing for divorce first thing!
I can't be with you anymore Carly."
Carly:
"Why?"
Sonny:
"Because my heart belongs to someone else - actually my heart
belongs to two ladies; Alexis and Kristina."
Carly:
"You're just confused Sonny that's all this is - I'm telling
you that
"
Sonny:
"NO!! Let me tell you something Carly: you're going
to leave this place to Courtney, and then you're going to leave
town."
Carly:
"And why would I do that?"
Sonny:
"Because if you don't
I'll head straight down to 'PCPD',
and tell lieutenant Taggert that I've found my daughter's kidnapper!"
Carly:
"I'll deny it!"
Sonny:
"How much time do you think it'll take Ned to turn on you?
I'm thinking community service, and he'll sing like a little birdie!"
Carly:
"Ned doesn't know anything Sonny - just like Alexis won't spend
one night in our bed!"
Sonny:
"My bed! And she will be back in PH4 in a matter of days you
can count on that Carly!" He exclaimed leaving the pitiful
excuse of a woman Carly had turned out to be.
Carly:
"Sonny!!" She yelled falling to the ground sobbing.
