Underground Parking Garage, General Hospital: Bobbie:(turns around in her seat)No, you can't be here. You're dead. Tony:Did you really think you cold get rid of me that easily, Bobbie? Bobbie:What do you want. Tony:I'm going to do to you what you did to me.(he lunges towards her) Bobbie(jumps out of the car, screaming)No, stay away from me.(as Bobbie runs towards the elevator, she hears him chasing after her. Suddenly the elevator doors slide open and Stefan steps out. She throws herself in his arms) Stefan:Barbara, what is it? Bobbie:Stefan, keep him away from me. Stefan:Who? Bobbie:Tony. He's after me. Stefan:Barbara, what are you talking about. Bobbie:Tony's chasing after me. He's right behind me. See.(she turns around and there's no one behind her)He was just there a minute ago. Stefan:(shakes Bobbie)Barbara, you know Jones is dead. We buried him. Bobbie:Stefan, that was no figment of my imagination. It was real. Stefan:Tell me exactly what happened. Bobbie:When I got in my car, Tony was hiding in the backseat. He said he was going to do to me what I did to him. Stefan:I'll go check it out. Bobbie:(clinging to his sleeve)Not without me you won't. You're not leaving me alone here.(they make their way over to Bobbie's car) Stefan:(checks out the backseat)See, Barbara, there's nobody here. And we're the only ones in this garage. Barbara, you just imagined it. The Docks: Sonny:Brenda, what are you doing out here so late. Since Jax just got you back, I wouldn't think he'd let you out of his sight. Brenda:I could ask you the same thing. This is your wedding night, isn't it. I did hear correctly. You married Carly Roberts, today. Sonny:Yeah, you heard right. Brenda:This seems a funny place to be spending your wedding night. Sonny:Not that it's any of your business, but Jason called me and asked me to meet him down here. Bobbie:And you came? You just left your bride alone on your wedding night. Interesting. By the way, why did you run-off, earlier, without even welcoming be back or at least saying hi to me. Sonny:I didn't think you'd notice my absense since you were with Jax. You certainly didn't notice my presence the night I almost died in the fire. You made it perfectly clear that if I'd have died you wouldn't have cared less as long as you had Jax. Brenda:Sonny, I wasn't myself that night. In fact, I haven't been myself for a very long time. Sonny:Yeah, whatever.(he starts to walk away, but she grabs his arm to stop him) Brenda:Well, we're here together now. Aren't you going to welcome me back. After all we once were to each other aren't you going to at least give me a welcome back hug. Or do you wish I'd had stayed dead. Sonny:You know that's not true. I've never wanted anything bad to happen to you. I let you go so you could be safe. I'm glad you're alive. Surely, you must know that. Brenda:Then prove it, Sonny. Give me a hug.(she steps close to him and fits her body next to his as she wraps her arms around him) Sonny(reluctantly puts his arms around her)Welcome home, Brenda. Brenda(closes her eyes, lays her head against his chest and sighs in pleasure at being held in Sonny's arms, again)How did you find out about my accident. Did someone tell you I died or did you just know something had happened to me. Sonny(without even realizing it begins to caress her hair)I woke up in the middle of thing night and just knew.(V stumbles upon the scene as Sonny and Brenda's eyes lock and Sonny begins to lower his mouth to Brenda's, but when their lips are just a breath apart, he suddenly pulls back and steps away from her)I really need to get home to Carly.(V ducks for cover before either Sonny and Brenda can spot her as Sonny glaces back at Brenda once before walking away)Goodnight. Brenda:(remains on the docks listening to Sonny's footsteps echoing in the distance as she runs her finger along her lips)He almost kissed me. You still want me, Sonny. I could see it in your eyes. I could feel it in the way your body responded to mine. The way your heart pounded against your chest. You may be married to Carly, but I haven't lost you, yet. The Brownstone: Stefan(hands Bobbie a cup of tea)Are you feeling better now? Bobbie:Thank you for driving me home. What's happening to me, Stefan. It seemed so real. I was so sure Tony was really there. Stefan:Barbara, it's perfectly understandable for you to be having experiences like this. Consider how Jones died. You believed the man was going to rape you. You were so terrified of him you hit him with a poker to protect yourself from him. So it's only natural when you see Jones it's always in a menacing manner. He's leering in the window at you of hiding in the backseat of your car. Bobbie:But how much longer is this going to go on. How much longer am I going to keep seeing Tony. I don't think I can take much more of this. I'm a nervous wreak.(she holds up her had)Look at my hand. I'm still shaking. Stefan:(takes her hand in his to still the trembles)These visions are just the product of you guilty conscience. You're obviously feeling tremendous guilt over killing and burying Jones. But over time your guilt will lessen and the visions of Jones will stop occuring. I promise you. Bobbie:Do you really think so. Stefan:(kisses her hand)I know so. Bobbie:I really don't know what I do without you, Stefan. You're holding me together. Without you I'd be completely falling apart. You're the only one I can talk to about what really happened in Tony's cabin, who knows and understands what I'm going through.(Bobbie guilty pulls her hands away from Stefan's when she sees Jerry standing in the doorway) Jerry:And why is that, Bobbie? Why can you only talk to him about what happened in the cabin? Nursery, Sonny's Penthouse: Sonny(enters and goes over to Michael's crib)What are you doing awake, little guy.(he caresses the baby's hair)Do you miss your daddy. I know how that is. I grew up missing mine, too. But your father didn't abandon you the way mine did. He wants to be a father to you. But he won't be able to be a full-time daddy to you, so I'll be here for you when he can't be. And I'll be a good stepfather to you. I won't be like Deke. Carly(enters)So you're back. I missed you when I woke up and you were gone. Sonny:I'm sorry. Jason called me and asked me to meet him down on the docks. Carly:Anything wrong. Sonny:Nothing I can help him with. Michael's still awake. Carly:He's probably just lonely. Sometimes I like to bring him into my bed with me and let him sleep with me. Sonny:(picks him up)Is that what's wrong, Michael? Are you lonely. Would you like to sleep with mommy and me?(the baby giggles)I think that was a yes. Carly:That was definitely a yes. Sonny:Come on, Michael. Let's you, me and mommy all climb in bed together and get some sleep. The Brownstone: Bobbie:Jerry, would you please calm down. Jerry:Calm down! I've tried to get you to talk to me about what happened with Jones in that bloody cabin, but you won't say a word. But you can talk to it with Cassadine. Why? Why him and not me? Bobbie:Jerry, you're making too much out of this. Jerry:Am I really? That scene I walked in on way pretty cosy. You and Cassadine holding hands sharing confidences. Bobbie:Jerry, you have nothing to be jealous of when it comes to Stefan and me. He's just being nice so I'll help him break up Nikolas and Katherine. He knows I'm the only one left in the position to help him. Nikolas is just starting to patch things up with Stefan so he can't rock the boat and express his displeasure over Nikolas and Katherine. And at the moment, Nikolas wants nothing to do with Laura. So that only leaves me. ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com
