| Chapter 12 He sat at his desk going over some paperwork. Truthfully he was thinking about Carly. Courtney was upstairs sleeping in the guestroom since it was about... He glanced at the clock and realized it was 1 am. He knew it was late but he had this sudden urge to go see Carly. He couldn't suppress it so he grabbed his coat and went out the door telling Max to guard the door as he took Johnny with him. Carly's House She awoke from her great dream with a start as she heard the pounding on her door. She crawled out of bed "Who the heck is here at," She glanced at her clock. "1:15 in the morning? Someone who wants an a/s/s kicking from me." She mumbled angrily rubbing the sleep out of her eyes. She walked out of her room and climbed down the stairs. She flung the door open to reveal the man of her dreams, literally. "Sonny," She yawned. "What are you doing here in the middle of the night?" "I had to ... can I come in?" He asked, ogling her. There was something incredibly sexy about a woman in flannel robe, with tossed hair. "Yeah, you making it a habit of waking me up?" She questioned. "Well, back to the question at hand, why are you here?" "I had to see you, Carly. I have to thank you." Puzzled she asked why. "For Courtney..." "Ah, don't mention it. I i presume she's at your house." She said with a knowing grin. "Yeah I asked her to stay at the penthouse." Carly raised an eyebrow when he said 'asked'. "Ok maybe not ask...." "Control freak." She said under her breath. "What was that?" "Nothing." She smiled sweetly. They stood there for a while just looking at each other. Desire mirroring out of their eyes. Carly tentatively stepped forward as she put her hand on his cheek. Feeling the passion, Sonny couldn't resist kissing her, firm, but soft. Getting caught up in the moment they started to really get physical, when suddenly Carly pushed away. "No, Sonny we can't do this." She gestured with her hands, taking deep breaths. "We need to talk about things. We can't just jump to having sex." Sonny nodded his head and ran his finger through his hair. "Ok you sit there." She pointed to the chair. "And I'll sit here." She said pointing to the couch opposite of it. She pulled the coffee table in between them to give distance. She sat down and they both tried to regain their breath. "Oh what the hell." Carly said getting up pushing the coffee table over and kissed Sonny. Chapter 13 Back to Amante |
