| CHAPTER 23
Diane is pacing the docks when Trevor walks up. �Where have you been?� �Oh, Diane you disappoint me.� �It�s not my fault Sonny figured out we we�re working together.� �Sonny�s to stupid to put two and two together. There�s no way he figured things out on his own.� Trevor shot back. �I don�t know how he found out but I promise you one thing, when I figure it out there�s going to be hell to pay.� �You know we might just be barking up the wrong tree.� Diane informs. � We have no real proof that Sonny knows anything. After all he didn�t come right out and fire me, and that�s not his style. He�s not like you Trevor he doesn�t play games.� �Then I guess you should consider yourself lucky to be alive.� Trevor laughed. �You stick close to Sonny and I�ll be in touch.� �Sonny isn�t going to tell me anything.� He walks up to her and grabs her around the neck. �If you don�t want the same thing to happen to you that happened to your husband I suggest you find a way to get back into his good gracious.� He let go of her and pushed her back. �I want Sonny Corinthos dealt with once and for all.� She put her hand on her neck and rubbed it lightly. �I�ll see what I can do.� Laughing. �Glad to see we understand one another.� ^*^*^*^*^^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^ �Viola, Viola.� Alexis screamed as she came out of bedroom in nothing but a towel. �Why don�t we have any running water?� She asked almost tripping over a toy car. �A pipe busted in the kitchen and Mr. Corinthos shut it off.� Viola replied bending down and picking up the full box of crayons Alexis kicked over. Alexis was disgusted as she looked around the room �Kristina.� she yelled. �Yea mommy.� �Why are all these toys all over the place? And what the heck is this?� She asked picking up a transformer. Kristina took it from her. �That�s Morgan�s and he threw it at me earlier.� Molly starts to scream. �I�ll go see what�s happening.� Viola said. �Mommy I�m hungry, when�s daddy gonna be done with breakfast?� Kristina pouted. �Are you going to eat breakfast in a towel?� Michael asked walking up behind her. Alexis brought her hands closer to her chest and held her towel tight. �Where did you come from?� Michael points to the door. �Milo picked Morgan and I up about an hour ago.� Alexis was afraid to turn her head and for good reason, there was Milo standing just inside the front door. �Sonny I�m going to kill you.� She said huffing off into the kitchen. �Don�t worry, we�ll have hot water in just a minute.� He said crawling out from the under the kitchen sink. �Nice outfit but I don�t think it�s appropriate for you to be running around in nothing but a towel. Especially with Michael running around.� He laughed. A little aggravated. �Do you think you could do me a favor and have the decencies to inform me when you plan on brings the boys over.� Michael and Kristina coming running through the kitchen shooting each other with water guns. Sonny runs over and grabs Michael. �No water guns in the house.� �Kristina Corinthos Davis you know better.� Alexis yelled. �Sorry Alexis.� Michael said looking up at her. �I�m going to go get dressed.� She looked at Sonny. �Do you think you could help me.� She added as she spoke through her teeth. �Viola the water should be fine now.� He said as she walked in. �Can you please start breakfast for the kids.� Alexis is standing just inside her bedroom door when Sonny carefully walks past her. �Before you say anything��.� Alexis slams the door. �You are right I should have told you Milo was bringing the boys this morning.� �And speaking of Milo, why is he inside the house?� Sonny�s cell phone rings and he picks it up. �Give it back.� Michael screamed as he ran down the hall. �No it�s mine and you can�t have it.� Kristina yelled as he chased her. Alexis grabs his hand and stops him from opening it. �This conversation is far from over.� He pushes the button on the side of the phone muting it. �You know if we moved into my place we wouldn�t be tripping all over each other.� She pulls an outfit out of her closet and tosses it on the bed. �The girls and I are not moving.� There was a loud crash in the hall. Sonny ran out to check on it as Alexis threw herself on the bed. He walks back into the room. �Don�t worry Milo is taking the kids into the living room to watch a movie and Viola is cleaning up the glass.� Looking up at the ceiling. �You know I never wanted kids��� and now I�ve got four of them running around like lunatics.� �Actually Molly�s in her playpen.� Sonny snickered as he laid on the bed next to her. �And you can�t blame her for crying, she is teething you know.� �This is never going to work.� �What�s that?� He asked as he played with her hair. �This, us, you and me and marriage.� �So you have been thinking about it.� He replied with a huge smile upon his face. She looked over at him. �I told you I would.� �I know you did but I wasn�t really sure how much if any effort you�d actually put into it.� Looking back at the ceiling. �Jax and I actually talked about it today at the park.� �Great.� Sonny replied extremely disappointed. �Of all the people in the world to talk it over with you, you choose Jasper Jax�.my ex-wife�s husband, who totally hates me of all people.� He turns her head so their eyes meet. �You can�t let Jax talk you out of marrying me, that it�s fair to anybody, especially the kids.� �Jax didn�t try and talk me out of saying yes.� Alexis replied as she touched his face. �In fact all he wants is for me to be happy.� Sonny started to say something but Alexis stopped him. �And he has come to the realization that you make me happy. Now no he isn�t thrilled by the idea but he said he�d give me his blessing if that�s what I really wanted and needed from him.� She kisses him slightly on the lips. �And it is.� Looking hopeful. �Does this mean your going to say yes and marry me.� Alexis jumped slightly as a loud bang came from the other room. �Sorry about that Ms. Davis, Mr. C.� Milo yelled. �I�ve got everything under control.� �Doesn�t sound like it to me.� Alexis laughed. Sonny got off the bed and walked over to her dresser and picked up the ring box and walked back over and laid next to her. He opens the box and pulls out the ring. �Can I put this on your finger or what?� �Mommy, mommy, Morgan sitting in my seat and he won�t get up.� Kristina yelled from the living room. �Do you really want to deal with this for the rest of your life?� Alexis laughingly asked. �You do realize the older they get the worse things will become.� �Isn�t that what boarding school is for.� Sonny joked back as he took her hand in his and slowly placed the ring on her finger. �Can we set a date?� �You�re incorrigible Sonny Corinthos.� �And you�re the love of my life Alexis Davis.� He replied staring deep into her eyes. �Corinthos.� �I never agreed to change my name.� She smiled back at him. He pulled her into a deep kiss. �You can call yourself anything you�d like, as long as I can call you my wife.� She looks at the ring. �It does look good.� �A hundred times better now that it�s on your finger.� She thinks for a moment. �I suppose I could leave it there.� She jokes. �After all it does goes with just about anything.� He rolls his body on top of hers, pinning her down. �Does this mean you will or you won�t marry me?� Contemplating for a few moments. �Should we get married before Christmas or what until next spring?� �Good I love you.� He yelled pulling her into the most romantic kiss ever. �You drive me crazy but god help me I do love you.� |
