Chapter 1: Surprise!

Sonny's Pov

It's been a year since I left my life in Salem to help my Uncle Vic manage clubs in Europe and honestly I had a great experience, I got to see so much. But I didn't go leave to have fun, I left for time to myself so that I could rethink my life and see what I wanted to keep or change. I think that after all the time I spent I finally knew what I wanted: I want to go home and try to fix everything that I had broken. And what I mean by that is Will and Paul, leaving them broke both of their hearts because neither of them thought I was coming back. I hadn't spoken to either of them since I left, actually the only people I talked to were my parents and my Uncle Vic. Sometimes I did get to see Arianna when Will had my mother babysit but it wasn't the same thing. She was one of the main reasons why I had decided to return to Salem, I wonder though if Will had explained to her that I was now only her godfather. Three months after I left I contacted a lawyer and filed for divorce, I couldn't the cheating and all the scheming he did to try and keep me. But just because Will and I are over that doesn't mean I'm getting back with Paul, because how could he claim to love me and then sleep with someone else? I'm not just talking about Will, there was also Derrick. Looking back I realized I was jealous and that Will was right, at that moment I was still in love with Paul. But after thinking I started to believe that he was the one that started the end of Will and I. Aftering thinking even more I realized that we all had a part in everything that happened, it wasn't just one of us that lead to this. But now I'm back and I just want to put everything behind me.

When my plane landed I walked through the airport until I spotted the driver my parents sent for me. And once all my luggage was packed into the car I made my way over to the Kiriakis mansion where when I opened the front door my parents, Uncle Vic and Maggie holding little Tate were waiting for me. I gave them all hugs in greeting and we moved to the living room to catch up in person. We spoke for an hour until I told them that it was time for me to go see my little girl.

"Sonny maybe you should wait to go over there" My mother told me and I looked at her confused.

"Why? I miss Arianna and I'm sure Will knows that. Plus I want to see how Will is doing" My parents shared a worried look and then turned back to me.

"Okay son. We all know that once your mind is made up there is no changing it. You proved that when we tried to talk you out of divorcing Will but just be prepared for what you see when you go over there. Will isn't the same guy anymore"

"Okay Dad. I'll see you guys later" We said our goodbyes and I had the driver take me to my old apartment. I told him that he could drive back to the house because I would be here for a while. I stepped towards the door and was able to knock but I halted, my parents works echoing in my head. But then I thought to myself how much could he have really changed?

So I knocked on the door and I could hear people moving inside. The door opened to reveal Will shirtless and sweaty. His eyes widened when he saw me and he took a step back in shock.

"Sonny" He whispered.

"Hi Will" I smiled and he shook himself out of his trance and smiled back.

"Please come in" He stepped aside and I made my way inside. Looking around things haven't changed much. The only thing I really noticed was that I didn't see any pictures of us.

"So where's Ari? I've been dying to see her"

"She's in her room and I'll grab her in a minute but before we do anything else there is something I need to talk to you about" He motioned for me to sit on the couch and we sat down together.

"As you know things have changed since you left, even more so since we got divorced. The truth is Sonny I've moved on, I found someone else and I'm really happy" I could tell he was, he was wearing that smile he used to get when he was with me.

"I'm happy to hear that Will. I was afraid that you would wait for me forever" I told him.

"At first that's what I wanted to do, that's why I postponed signing the papers for so long. But then I realized that all the time in the world couldn't make up for the mistakes I've made. And looking back I know that us getting divorced was the right thing to do. The way we were living wasn't the way a couple happily in love should live" He confessed.

"I completely agree. How did you realize this though? This is a big change"

"I had someone who helped me see everything clearly"

"Your mystery man?" I teased and he laughed.

"Yes, speaking of which I should see how he's doing back there with Ari"

"He's here?"

"Yeah, we actually just finished moving him in when you knocked. I'll go get him, he'll be happy to see you" He walked to our old bedroom door and there was something he said that I didn't understand. He said he would be happy to see me, not meet me. Do I know this man? I kept thinking of different people I could be but it was hard because there very few openly gay people in Salem.

But none of that registered when he came walking through the door. I think my brain actually shut down because the person who walked in holding my daughter/god-daughter was my ex lover Paul Narita.

"Paul?" I stuttered out.

"Hello Sonny"
