Alexis
was in her bedroom looking at her reflection in the mirror, and
being surprised by how the dress fit her like a glove even though
she was a few weeks pregnant. Sonny had had the dress especially
ordered for her through some of his contacts in Italy. It was a
blue, viscose dress with thin, double spaghetti straps together
with a very low cut V-neck, which showed off her generous cleavage,
and the dress itself reached her just below the knees. Together
with the dress Alexis had chosen to wear a pair of oval, silver
ear rings, a double necklace, which was held together by 4 pendants
and as a finish she also wore a silver bracelet. She’d decided
to put her hair up in a ponytail, and then made the hairstyle that
more exotic by taking a silver barrette and supported the ponytail
this way together with having a few locks of her hair cascading
down her features. Together with this beautiful dress Alexis wore
a pair of sandals where the straps were made out of the finest,
silver fabric that almost made it impossible to catch with the naked
eye.
Downstairs Sonny had just arrived, and was being welcomed by Ned,
Kristina, Jax and Skye. Magic seemed to be in the air because Jax
and Sonny hadn’t killed each other yet.
Sonny: “So…When is the big day?” He asked Jax and
Skye referring to their wedding day.
Skye: “September 26th! And you’re all invited!” She
exclaimed smiling.
Kristina: “So Sonny? How is Michael doing?” She asked
not wanting there to be anymore awkward pauses.
Sonny: “He’s good – he’s with Carly at the ‘Brownstone’
right now, but he’ll be back with me in a few days.”
Kristina: “That’s good – I’m happy to hear that…”
She replied.
In the meantime Alexis was upstairs in her bedroom where she was
still looking in the mirror amazed of how fortunate she was to have
Sonny in her life.
Alexis: “Well…Little One! I think it’s time to save
your daddy from all of mommy’s friends downstairs.” She
cooed to the baby before patting her stomach. Alexis picked up her
purse from her bed before going in the direction of the livingroom.
Jax: “Look at you…” He replied, as Alexis descended
the stairs making everyone turn to look.
Alexis: “What? Is this completely ridiculous?” She asked
semi-conscious about her body these days.
Jax: “Of course it isn’t! You look like a million bucks!”
He exclaimed making the glow return to Alexis’ face.
Sonny: “For once Candy Boy – I agree! Hello beautiful…”
He replied walking to where Alexis was standing before kissing her
softly on the cheek.
Alexis: “Hi yourself!”
Kristina: “Well…Since you’re ready then let’s
go down to ‘Luke’s’, huh?”
Skye: “Great idea!” She exclaimed, as she locked fingers
with Jax at the same time as Kristina locked fingers with Ned before
heading towards the elevator.
Sonny: “Why is it that I’ve got an urge to forget about
that party, and just stay here with you?”
Alexis: “I wish that we could do that too, but it took a lot
to get Luke to loan us his club, and besides Kristina has really
put her heart and soul into arranging this little get-together!”
Sonny: “OK I’ll go! But only if you promise me that I’ll
end tonight and start tomorrow with you in my arms?” He replied,
as he placed a black wrap around Alexis’ shoulders.
Alexis: “I promise…” She replied before locking her
fingers with his before they made their way to the elevator too.
A few hours later the party was in full swing, and Jax was making
his way to the stage where he was going to say a few words about
whom the party was for.
Jax: “Excuse me? Everyone? Could I possibly have your attention
for just a minute? Thanks!” He replied, as the music stopped,
and people started listening including Alexis, who was embraced
by Sonny from the back.
Sonny: “Now what is Candy Boy doing?” He whispered into
her ear.
Alexis: “Shh…” She shushed him, as Jax began to speak.
Jax: “No one here aside from Sonny probably knows Alexis Davis
as well as I do. Because I’ve had the privilege of being her
husband for approximately a year! It was however a marriage orchestrated
so that a mutual friend of ours could keep her company. This friend
was Chloe Morgan, who became a member of our very tight knit clique
of friends. During our marriage I came to see why Alexis was the
way she was, and how she survived. She helped me through my brother
Jerry’s car accident, and for that I’ll always be forever
grateful. So…How about raising our glasses to the one woman,
who’s got the ability to see the good in all people before
they know about it themselves, huh? To Alexis!”
Everyone In Unison: “TO ALEXIS!!”
Jax: “Music, please…” He asked, as he got off of
the stage, and walked over to where Sonny and Alexis were standing.
Alexis: “That was really beautiful Jax, thank you!”
Jax: “You’re welcome…” He replied kissing her
on the cheek.
Sonny: “Will you excuse us, Jax?” He suddenly asked.
Jax: “Sure!” He exclaimed, as Sonny took Alexis’
hand in his, as they went out onto the dance floor where the music
of Christina Aguilera’s “Blessed” was being played.
Sonny placed one hand behind Alexis’ back, while the other
gathered her hand in his, as they swayed to the music being played.
“Blessed” performed by Christina Aguilera
When I think how life used to be
Always walking in the shadows
Then I look at what you’ve given me
I feel like dancing on my tiptoes
I must say every day I wake
And realize you’re at my side
Chorus:
I know I’m truly blessed
For everything you give me
Blessed for all the tenderness you show
I’ll do my best
With every breath that’s in me
Blessed
To make sure you never go
There are times that test your faith
‘Til you think you might surrender
And baby I’m, I’m not ashamed to say
That my hopes were growing slender
You walked by in the nick of time
Looking like an answered prayer
(Chorus)
I’m blessed with love and understanding
Blessed when I hear you call my name
I’ll do my best with faith that’s never-ending
Blessed to make sure you feel the same
Deep inside of me
You fill me with your gentle touch
(Chorus)
(Christina Aguilera – Christina Aguilera)
When the tunes of the song began to fade away Sonny and Alexis locked
eyes, and in that instant Sonny made the most important decision
of his life.
Sonny: “Let’s get out of here, huh?”
Alexis: “OK, but where are we going?” She asked, as Sonny
led her off of the dance floor.
Sonny: “Does it matter, as long as we’re together?”
Alexis: “No…” She smiled proving to him that she
trusted him completely.
15 minutes later they’d arrived at PH4 where Johnny was standing
guard.
Johnny: “Ms. Davis, Mr. Corinthos!” He acknowledged them,
as they entered the penthouse.
Sonny: “Johnny!” He exclaimed, as he opened the door for
Alexis, and shut the door close just after having entered the penthouse
himself.
Alexis: “So…What’s up with the big mystery?”
She asked, as she’d placed her wrap and purse on a chair before
having taken a seat on the couch.
Sonny: “Big mystery?” He asked acting as if he didn’t
know what she was talking about.
Alexis: “Dragging me out of ‘Luke’s’? What’s
going on Sonny?” She asked, as Sonny took a seat on the couch
next to her.
Sonny: “I made a realization today at ‘Luke’s’!”
Alexis: “OK – what?”
Sonny: “I saw us for what we were! We are in love Alexis, and
we’re about to make a family of our own with Michael, and this
Little One!” He exclaimed patting Alexis’ stomach.
Alexis: “Yeah, and we’re very happy about it. Of course
we’ll be a family – no matter what! Nothing will ruin
us this time around.” She replied assuring Sonny by placing
her fingers on his face.
Sonny: “I know that baby!” He exclaimed removing her hands
from his face, and placing her hands between his on his lap.
Alexis: “Then what?” She asked really not getting what
he was saying.
Sonny: “I want you to know that I’ll never leave you,
Michael or this baby you’re carrying underneath your heart.”
Alexis: “I know that!” She tried to ensure him.
Sonny: “I love you Alexis, and I need to show you just how
much…” He replied placing his hands around Alexis’
neck before dipping his tongue inside Alexis’ mouth.
Alexis: “What was that for?” She asked once they separated
their mouths.
Sonny: “That was a so-called promise…Marry me?” He
asked, as he’d gotten down on one knee.
Alexis: “Come again?” She asked completely amazed that
he was actually asking her to marry him.
Sonny: “Become my wife through good and bad!” He replied,
as he retrieved a black velvet box from his pocket. When he opened
the box it revealed an absolutely beautiful cut diamond ring that
sparkled, as Alexis’ eyes did – of tears.
Alexis: “It’s beautiful Sonny…” She replied
through happy tears.
Sonny: “Alexis Davis…Will you be my wife?” He asked,
as Alexis tilted her head to the left, as if thinking about his
proposal.
Alexis: “There’s no one else in this world that I’d
rather spend the rest of my life with – so yes! YES –
I will marry you Michael Corinthos Jr., and I’ll make sure
that you’re happy each day that we’re together…”
She replied, as Sonny grabbed her face, and pressed it against his
own, as their lips found each other.
Sonny: “To make it official!” He exclaimed after they’d
separated their lips, and he was removing the ring from the box,
and was sliding it onto Alexis’ ring finger.
Alexis: “God – it’s beautiful!” She exclaimed
getting a better look at it.
Sonny: “Just like the owner of it…” He replied, as
he got up from the floor, and supported her up from the couch. Sonny
bent down, and placed one hand underneath her legs, and one behind
her back, as he carried her upstairs to their bedroom.
Alexis: “How did you manage to do all of this?” She asked
when Sonny had placed Alexis’ feet on the bedroom floor where
Alexis saw that multiple candles were lit, and the room was filled
with gardenias.
Sonny: “Anything’s possible for the right woman!”
Alexis: “Anything, huh?”
Sonny: “Yep! Anything you want?”
Alexis: “Just this…” She replied turning around to
take Sonny’s face into her hands before placing a hot, scorching
kiss on his lips.
Sonny: “You’re sure?” He asked not wanting to hurt
the baby by them making love.
Alexis: “Absolutely!” She exclaimed, as Sonny led her
to their bed.
