SCL CH 48

“Gia!” Sonny yelled as she chased after her. He saw the car coming before she did. The second it hit her, he called 911 and was grateful that there was an ambulance close by that was on its way. He made his way over to Gia. Her body lay on the pavement of the street and blood was dripping from her head, as her eyes were clamped shut. He never wanted this to happen, all he wanted to do was keep her safe from Nikolas Cassadine. He trusted that Stovros would some how stop Gia from being involved with Nikolas but he never thought that he would do this. Tears were pouring down Sonny’s face as he leaned over her. “Gia.” He cried. He heard the sirens coming and prayed that they would get there sooner. He saw Gia’s eyes flutter open and bent his head down closer to hers. “Baby girl?” Sonny said sadly.

“Nikolas.” Gia whispered before closing her eyes again. The ambulance came and put Gia on a stretcher and then a few men loaded her unconscious body onto the truck. Sonny made his way over to the side of the street where the two limos were parked so that he could fallow her. Having seen the traffic slow, and noticing Sonny’s state. Lucky walked over from his spot by the limo. Concerned that something was wrong.

“Sonny, is everything OK?” Lucky asked.

“No it’s not, Gia is dead and I want you and your brother to stay away from me and the rest of my family.” Sonny said as tears rolled down his cheeks. He walked away leaving a stunned Lucky by himself.

“Gia, oh no Gia.” Lucky said falling to the ground and crying.

~Meanwhile~

Nikolas had been led into a small room after they began to take him to prison. It all happened after the policeman who was escorting him got a page. He now sat on a wooden chair behind a wooden table, handcuffed to the table. The door captured his attention as it suddenly swung open.

“Mr. Cassadine, you’re free to go home now.” The man said. Nik’s eyebrows knitted.

“What do you mean?” He asked.

“The suspect turned himself in. His name is Zander Smith and it seems he was a friend of the victim. You are free to go.” The man said. Relief filled Nik’s body as he heard this. He hurriedly signed some papers before heading for the door. A smile spread across his face as he saw the back of his brothers blond head outside. He needed to get to him, they needed to find Gia and tell her the news. Nik pushed the doors open with a smile on his face that quickly faded when he took one look at his brother’s face.

“L, Lucky what happened?” Nik reluctantly asked. He saw his brother’s face crumble as he looked up at him. Lucky grabbed Nik’s arm and held on for support.

“It’s Gia! She ran across the street and, she never saw the car, she’s gone Nikolas.” Lucky cried. Nik pulled away from his brother like he was poison. He shook his head violently.

“No.” He stated. Lucky looked down.

“Nikolas everyone saw it, she was bleeding from the head. She was dead brother, I’m sorry.” Lucky said. Nik’s hands flew up to his ears as he desperately tried to block out his brother’s words. He looked around at the people who still stood around gawking and felts his panic begin to rise as he got a sinking feeling in his stomach. He continued to look at his surroundings and his eyes landed on the pool of blood in the middle of the street. Nik felt his knees go weak and gave into his body and finally was no longer able to stand and fell to his knees.

“Gia? Gia!!” Nik screamed as he looked around for her. He felt so alone, barely feeling his brother’s arms around his shoulders. People were shocked as Nik’s loud cries rang through the air. He cried as his arms wrapped around himself. “No Gia please, no, no!!” He cried. His body collapsed and he laid down in the fetal position on the sidewalk as sobs violently took over his body.
