The Brownstone: Brenda:You cheated on me. How could you.(she lunges toward him, her fingers formed in claws aimed straight at his face) Sonny:(catches her wrists in an iron grip before she can go for his face)I did not cheat on you. We weren't even together at the time. Brenda:How could you have crawled in bed with Carly Benson after we'd made love in the catacombs. How could you betray me like this. Sonny(shoved her away from him)Don't you dare try to play the wounded party to me. You used me to make Jax jealous. After we made love in the catacombs, you strung both Jax and me along for weeks as you tried to decide which one of us it was that you truly wanted. Brenda:So that gives you the right to go out and sleep with Carly Benson. Sonny:Maybe Jax didn't mind playing your lapdog, but Sonny Corinthos plays lapdog for no woman, not even you. The night you accused me of planting drugs on Jax was the last straw for me. While you went off to the police station with your precious Jax, I did what I should have done a long time ago. I went out and found myself a warm, willing woman and I got myself laid. Brenda:Then you gave me an ultimatum to pick you or Jax, but you never once mentioned you'd been with another woman. Sonny:I wouldn't have slept with Carly if you hadn't accused me of planting drugs on Jax. You know it always amazed me the blind faith you had in this guy when he did absolutely nothing to deserve it. He lied to you about being married before, he plotted with Tracy to steal ELQ from the Q's, he's partially responsible for the break-up on Ned and Lois' marriage and you just brushed all that aside. In your mind he was your perfect knight-in-shining armor who could do no wrong and I was the evil dark prince who was capable of anything, including planting drugs of Mr. Perfect so I could have the fair damsel all to myself. But I shouldn't be surprised since you don't know me at all and you never did. That's why I knew if I sent Jason to the church and had him lie to you about why I didn't showup, you'd have no problem believing it. Brenda:I want to know, Sonny, what you would have done if I hadn't given into your ultimatum to choose between you and Jax. Would you have continued to sleep with Carly. Sonny:Carly was living with Tony Jones at the time, if you remember. Brenda:That didn't stop her from crawling in bed with you, did it. So what would you have done. Sonny:We would have gotten back together regardless of what you did or I did. If you had refused to choose, the minute you saw me with another woman, you would have dropped Jax like a hot potato and come after me the same way I'd been coming after you when you were "married" to Jax. You see, unlike you, I happen to know you. Brenda:Well, since you know me so well, you must know what I'm going to do next.(she heads for the door) Sonny:Brenda, where are you going? Brenda:Anywhere you're not.(she storms out into the night) Sonny(calls after her)Brenda, come back! It's not safe for you to be out alone.(he grabs his coat and chases after her, while Carly whose been standing on the upstairs listening to everything smirks like a cat) The Bathroom, Stefan's Bedroom: Bobbie(is taking a shower when Stefan steps into the stall with her)Stefan, what are you doing? Stefan:(takes her hand in his and kisses her palm)I came to apologize. I'm sorry we argued, earlier. Bobbie:Stefan, I don't understan why you took Brenda's side against Carly's the way you did. You barely know her and you've always acted that what you knew you didn't like. Stefan:It's not important. What is important is you and I. I don't like to quarrel with you. I don't want us to let your daughter cause problems between us the way she did with you and Dr. Jones. Bobbie(stands on her tip toes and puts her arms around him)But fighting can be fun. Stefan:How so? Bobbie:Because when we fight, then we get to have the fun of making up. Stefan:(puts his arms around her and and molds her body to his)I like the way your minds works, Barbara.(he lowers his head to her and they being kissing passionately as the water from the showerhead above cascades over them.) The Brownstone: Carly(as Sonny returns)Did you find her. Sonny:I followed her until she reached Jagger's apartment. I may not like the guy, but he'll keep Brenda safe in case her crazy mother is still in town and on the loose. Carly(plays Simply Red's "If You Don't Know Me By Now" on the compact disc player then pours him a drink and sits down on the sofa next to him)You look like you could use this?(she hands him the drink) Sonny(glances at the compact disc player as Simply Red is crooning, "If you don't know me by now, you will never, never know me.")Real subtle, Carly. Carly:Sonny, how can you be thinking of planning a future with a woman who doesn't understand you, at all. Sonny:Carly, don't. Carly:Sonny, you and I share a child together. Sonny:And Brenda and I are going to have a child together. Carly, Brenda and I have gotten through worse things than this and we'll get through this, as well, too. I don't want you to get any false hopes up. I've made my choice. I'm committed to Brenda. And you and I are going to be divorced in a few days time. End of story. Carly:Not necessarily. Sonny, at the courthouse whenI told you Michael was your son, you kissed me. And it wasn't a kiss of gratitude. It was the kind of kiss a man gives a woman he wants under him naked. Sonny:That kiss was a mistake and it's not going to happen, again. Carly:Sonny, you still have feelings for me. You still want me. Sonny:But I'm with Brenda now and I intend to spend the rest of my life with her. Whatever feelings I have for you will have to remain unsatisfied. Now, I'm going to look in on our son, then I'm going to bed. I suggest you do the same. Carly(calls to him as he starts up the stairs)Sonny, if you'd known about Michael before you found out Brenda was pregnant with your child would you have really chosen Brenda over me?(he doesn't answer or pause as he continues on his way up the stairs) Jagger's Apartment: Brenda(banging on the door as she cries hysterically)Jagger, open up. Jagger, I need you. Jagger(comes to the door wearing nothing but his jockey shorts. Brenda throws herself on his chest weeping)Brenda, what is it? What's wrong? Brenda:Jagger, it's Sonny. I just found out, tonight, that he cheated on me with Carly. And that's not all. He and Carly have a baby together. Sonny is really Michael's father, not AJ. Jagger, I wanted to be the one to give Sonny his first child. I wanted to be the one who made that dream come true for him. I wanted to be the only woman to have Sonny's children. And Carly's taken that all away from me. Jagger(puts his arms around her and runs his hands soothingly up and down her back as she continues to cry)It's all right, Brenda. It's going to be, all right. Brenda(looks up at him)No, Jagger, it's never going to be, all right, again. I hate Carly Benson. Why did she ever have to come into Sonny's life. And I hate Sonny. Why did he have to crawl in bed with Carly and make a baby with her. I hate them both. Jagger(holds her face in his hands)Brenda, it is going to be all right. I'm going to make it all right for you, again.(He lowers his mouth to hers and kisses her) Brenda(responds at first, then she pulls away from him)No, Jagger, this isn't what I came here for. I came to you because I needed a friend to talke to, not a lover to make the pain go away. Jagger:Come on, Brenda, who are you kidding. If you wanted a friend to talk to, you would have went to Robin. You came here because you want to use me to get back at Sonny. He cheated on you with someone you hate, and now you want to return the favor by cheating on him with me. And I'm more than willing to cooperate. It will be my pleasure to help you stick it to Corinthos good. So, have you suddenly changed your mind, or do you still want to go through with it? Are you going to let Sonny get away with cheating on you with Carly and making a child with her or are you going to banish the mental images of Sonny and Carly making love that are filling your mind, right now, by making love with me? What will it be, Brenda? Will February Sweeps be a dud? _______________________________________________________________ Get Free Email and Do More On The Web. Visit http://www.msn.com
