Love
Endures Chapter 1 - The Anniversary Sonny and Alexis Corinthos had now been married for 3 years, and in the duration of those 3 years they'd made a family for themselves along with Kristina and Michael; their children. The people of Port Charles had after these years begun to accept Sonny, Alexis, Michael and Kristina as a family. Alexis still had her law practice, and Sonny was still in the same 'business' as before, but had, due to Alexis, Kristina and Michael, decided to take safety measures concerning their protection, and his involvement in these cases, which Mac, Taggert and Scott accounted him guilty for. Sonny and Alexis had also hired a nanny to look after Michael and Kristina when Sonny and Alexis were working, and her name was Marie. Grace still lived across the hall from Sonny, Alexis, Michael and Kristina, and was considered just as much family as Courtney. It was their 3rd wedding anniversary today, and they were going to their favorite restaurant; the one, which Sonny had taken Alexis to after Carly had turned him over to the Feds and he'd been feeling lonely at his own penthouse. Alexis was wearing a black, velvet, spaghetti strapped dress, which went to her ankles along with a pair of black sandals with thin straps, and a thin, black, velvet shawl draped over her slim shoulders. Her hair had been arranged in a French twist with an antique comb Grace had given Alexis on her last birthday. Sonny was dressed in a black, Armani suit with a matching black shirt and tie, and black shoes. Raul: "Mr. and Mrs. Corinthos - welcome!" He exclaimed, as Sonny and Alexis arrived; Sonny with his arm wrapped around Alexis' waist. Sonny: "Thank you Raul - is our usual table ready?" Raul: "It sure is Mr. Corinthos…This way please!" he exclaimed, as he led Sonny and Alexis to their table. After having given them their menus Raul left them to decide what they were having. Alexis: "Why don't you just try and concentrate on something else than Zander and Courtney?" she asked after they'd been sitting in silence for a couple of minutes. Sonny: "How am I supposed to relax when Zander is somewhere out there with my little sister? If Jason hadn't…" Alexis: "Look Sonny…Jason loves Elizabeth, and they're happily married now. You could at least be glad that it isn't A.J. she's with somewhere." Sonny: "I guess you've got a point. It's just…Zander has just gotten past his drug addiction, and I don't want him to take Courtney down with him if he get's hooked again." Alexis:
"Cameron is out with Jason right now looking for them, and
I'm sure either he or Jason will call us later tonight to tell us
that they've found them, OK? Now…Let's enjoy our anniversary!" Alexis: "You love Courtney because she's your sister, and I completely understand but she's a grown woman, and she can take care of herself - she's almost 24 years old!" Sonny: "If Kristina had been alive today you'd be worried about her too, regardless if she was 50 or 25!" Alexis: "True! Let's just put Zander and Courtney out of our minds for tonight, and celebrate our marriage for the 3rd year running, OK?" Sonny: "You got it!" He smiled his dimpled smile, as he softly grasped her hand in his, and kissed her knuckles tenderly, as Raul joined them again. Alexis: "Have you decided yet?" Sonny: "I think I'll do the honors of ordering tonight. We'll both have your special pasta salad with garlic dressing for the first course, and then for the main course we'll have the fried calamari, and for dessert we'll have the vanilla and strawberry special." Raul: "Very well…And what would you like to drink?" Sonny: "That amazing vintage Cabernet would be great!" Alexis: "Just sprinkled water for me please Raul!" Sonny looked at her wondering why she didn't want to drink their usual wine all of the sudden. Sonny: "Sprinkled water?" Alexis: "I've been feeling a little under the weather lately!" She smiled even though it wasn't the truth she was telling him. She'd been keeping a secret from him, which she'd wished to let him know tonight. But considering how preoccupied he'd been with Zander and Courtney lately she'd decided to wait telling him until the perfect moment arrived. Raul: "Very well…" He replied, as he made his way to the kitchen to place the order. Sonny: "If you're feeling so much under the weather why don't we just call it an early night?" Alexis: "Certainly not - this is our first night away from home on a beautiful night in months, and I'm going to enjoy myself with my handsome, but paranoid husband!" She smiled, as Sonny placed his hand inside his jacket, and pulled out a velvet jewelry case, and placed it in front of Alexis. Sonny: "Seeing how preoccupied I've been with Zander and Courtney lately I've gotten you something so that you can remember this night for many years to come!" He replied, as Alexis opened the case and couldn't believe what she was seeing; the case contained a silver necklace with a diamond pendant along with a silver charm bracelet, and a pair of diamond ear studs. Alexis: "This is too much Sonny! How in the world did you find the time?" She asked.
Johnny: "Sonny, Alexis!" He nodded, as they made their way to him. Alexis: "Are Michael and Kristina asleep?" Johnny: "Yes, Marie put them down a couple of hours ago!" Alexis: "I'm going to say goodnight to them, OK?" She replied, as she kissed Sonny on the cheek, and made her way inside to their children. Sonny: "Have a goodnight Johnny!" He replied, before following Alexis inside. Johnny: "I'm sure you'll have one!" He smiled to himself, as Sonny had entered the penthouse in which his dreams would come true once more because of the phenomenal woman, who just so happened to be his lawfully wedded wife. While Alexis was checking in on Michael and Kristina, who had each their rooms now, Sonny lit some scented candles in their bedroom along with turning on some slow music perfect for making love to. Alexis: "Marie really must have tired them out!" She exclaimed, entering the bedroom, as Sonny stepped behind her and closed the door behind her. Sonny: "I though we'd might need this!" He replied, removing the shawl from her shoulders, and turning her around. Alexis immediately noticed that he was only wearing the pants of his Armani suit. Alexis: "Did you now?" She smiled, as their lips met slowly and lingering, as Sonny placed his fingers in her brown mane, and removed the antic comb from her brown locks, and loosened her hair so that it laid beautifully along her shoulders. He then led her to their bed, which he laid her on very slowly and put his legs between hers, and ever so slowly neared her lips. Sonny: I love you Mrs. Corinthos!" He replied, before claiming her lips, as his hands went to the straps of her dress, and lowered them to her waist, revealing the most beautiful part of her, which was her torso. He slowly lowered his head to her breasts, and began nuzzling and kissing her breasts, which he knew would drive her insane. Some time later they were both sitting in bed naked only covered by the black, satin sheets, which were always present in their bedroom. Sonny placed his hands around Alexis' neck and began kissing her open mouthed wanting to remember this night for years to come. It always amazed Alexis how many different ways Sonny knew to please her. And still it felt special even though she knew that he was an experienced lover. Sonny carefully placed Alexis on her back, and began kissing her throat, making Alexis grasp the sheets, and hang onto it in fear of waking the entire building if she screamed her pleasure as she usually did. Sonny looked her intensely in the eyes, smiling knowing exactly why she'd been grasping the sheets, as hard as she had. They continued making love until the wee hours of the morning knowing that whatever tomorrow had to bring in connection with Zander and Courtney they'd deal with it because they were a family, and that was what families did. "Blessed" performed by Christina Aguilera When
I think how life used to be Chorus: I know
I'm truly blessed There
are times that test your faith (Chorus) I'm
blessed with love and understanding Deep
inside of me (Chorus) (Christina Aguilera - Christina Aguilera) The next morning Alexis noticed how peacefully Sonny slept, and didn't want to interrupt him knowing how upset he'd been lately, and unable to sleep because of Zander and Courtney. She decided to make her husband some breakfast; just as he'd taught her.
