WHAT IF... A WILL AND SONNY STORY DIFFERENT VERSION OF EVENTS

(WILL'S POV)

Have you ever found yourself left to wonder, what if I would have chosen differently? Each day, we are faced with a choices, decisions we make that creates two different paths, with two different outcomes. As I stand here today and wonder, what if...

Will was just sitting there in the middle of the park after a big fight with T. T. had really pulled a number on Will. Making him question is sexuality again, like he really needed this. After everything that has happened in the last 24 hours, the explosions underground, the people who have been hurt, the last thing he needed was his best friend to tear into him like that, but then there Sonny. His new best friend that as always been his biggest supporter. Helping him through everything, his coming out, his family issues. Never has anyone been there for him like Sonny. Will was worried as he never heard from Sonny in the last 24 hours.

As he sat there thinking about what just happened with T, wondering if Sonny was o.k., he felt someone touch is shoulder. It was Sonny.

Sonny: I so glad I found you Will. I have been looking everywhere for you.

(He get's up and walks away)

Will: I'm alright Sonny, I have been here thinking.

Sonny: What about?

Will: I'm a bad person Sonny, I didn't take care of anybody but me.

(He says crying)

Sonny: No your not. That's just how you feel in disasters, you did everything you could. I'm just so glad your o.k.

Will: Sonny...I

Sonny: Your good Will, I just so happy your safe.

Will: Yeah?

Sonny: Yeah, come here.

Sonny took Will in his arms, holding him close to his body, happy that he was alright. Will felt something he never did before. He felt Sonny in a whole new way. A way he could not explain. He felt safe in Sonny arms, like no one could ever hurt him, he felt loved in his arms.

Sonny: I'm just so happy you're o.k...you have no idea.

(WILL'S POV)

He pulled back just a few moments and looked me in the eyes that day. I will always remember his smile. It lite up my whole day. I was still afraid of what I was feeling. After everything that happened with T., I wondered if my feelings were all messed up, or was I having real feelings for Sonny, my best friend? He slowly pulled me in and I will always remember feeling his breath on my skin...It felt like a war breeze on a beautiful summer day. I was terrified, and my mind was going a mile a minute. I felt his lips touch mine. This is when I really started to freak out. I was faced with a choice. Was I going to push him away, or was I going to give in to my feelings? What if I chose to give in...

Will: Wow, what was that for?

Sonny: I'm so sorry Will, I shouldn't have done that.

Will: No, it's fine. I'm just surprised, that's all.

Sonny: Your not angry? I feel like I over stepped here.

Will: Sonny, don't stress about it.

Sonny: I'm sorry Will, maybe I should go...

Will: Don't go, please... Stay, I really need a friend right now.

Sonny: Are you sure Will. I really don't want to make you feel uncomfortable or anything like that.

Will: I'll be honest, I wasn't expecting to be kissed. I was surprised and frighten all at the same time.

Sonny: Frightened?

Will: Yes, frightened. I was afraid of what I was feeling. This is all new to me Sonny, having feelings for someone, for my best friend.

Sonny: You have feelings for me?

Will: Yes, for a while now. But I was afraid to tell you. I thought maybe you didn't feel the same way.

Sonny: Will, I have always felt this way about you. I have been hiding it for the past few months. But after everything that happened in the last few days, I was just so worried that I might never get the chance to tell you and see where this might lead.

Will: Well I'm glad you kissed me. It made me realize that I really can be happy. That I don't have to question myself about being gay. I know now my true feelings and I'm not about to hide from them anymore.

Sonny: What do you mean your true feelings?

Will: My feeling for you. T. tried to convince me that I was wrong to gay. I tried to explain to him that I always knew I was gay, but he already had his mind made up. I might of lost a friend today, but I gain something better.

Sonny: And what is that?

Will: I gained a new perspective on life. I now know who I truly am. I would have never been able to do this without you Sonny...thank you.

Sonny: Your welcome Will. I'm just glad you don't hate me for kissing you.

Will: Hate you? For making me realize I have feelings for you? Sonny, I could never hate you. You are my best friend in the whole world, and nothing will ever change that.

Sonny: Promise?

Will: I promise.

Sonny: How about we get out of here for a bit? You want to join me for a cup of coffee at the coffee house?

Will: Sure coffee sounds great right now.

Sonny: Great, let go.

Will: Sonny?

Sonny: Yeah, what's wrong?

Will: Before we go, there is really something I want to do.

Sonny: What's that?

Will: This...

Before he could even realize what I was about to do, my lips were pressing on his. I held him close, as I was holding on for dear life. It didn't take him long to realize what I was doing, as he pressed his lips back to mine with more force and passion. He held me in his arms for what seemed like hours, but it was but a few minutes. A few minutes I will never forget... He pulled back just long enough to have a glance at my face, long enough to see that this was really happening. I confirmed his doubts with one last tender kiss, and by taking his hand and lacing my fingers with his. We both looked at each other and smiled. Not know what the future would have in store for us, or what challenges with might face along the way, but one thing was for sure, it that we were now going to face them together...
