Hi, this is my first fanfiction. For years, I have enjoyed reading wonderful stories here and I have finally gained a little courage to post something of what I have written. All feedback is welcome.
A little background, I love the character of Alexis Davis. She seems the quintessential female character on GH and Nancy Lee Grahn is just an amazing actress. If only GH could use her to her full potential. As much as I like Maurice Benard as an actor, I can only stand Sonny Corthinos when he is with Alexis. 'Nuff Said !
I do not own any of the characters of General Hospital.

Chapter 1:
Somebody Told Me… Love is Enough
This is a story of two people. Two people from two different worlds who beat the odds and fell in love. Sounds like a cliché, doesn't it? But nothing of what they went through was cliché, but maybe something akin to a fairytale without the happy ending. Despite their love, they didn't live happily ever after …not yet at least…hey, I am a dreamer, what can I say? Then one day, everything changed. It all began…
Kristina Davis-Corinthos, battered, bruised, and in surgery at General Hospital. While doctors worked frantically to save her, she lay there unconsciousness, almost dead. She may have preferred that, but ...
Dr. Patrick Drake and Dr. Robin Scorpio were assigned her case when she was brought into the ER. They would have the task of dealing with Kristina's parents, something most people at Port Charles avoid. They never thought that the daughter of the local mob boss and district attorney would ever end up in the ER beaten to a pulp. Or maybe, having two high profile parents like that is just a recipe for disaster. Too many unknowns, too many enemies, too many guards, too many brushes with the law.
Alexis Davis and Sonny Corinthos are in a league of their own and when they come together, they are a force. Alexis and Sonny only came together twice. One of the times was in the creation of their daughter.
So, Robin being close to both Sonny and Alexis, called the concerned parents. General Hospital would have to brace themselves.
"Alexis ! This is Robin Scorpio. It's Kristina, there's been an accident. Please come to GH as soon as possible."
"Sonny ! This is Robin. It's Kristina, there's been an accident. Please come to GH as soon as possible."
She walked out of the elevator, frantically looking for someone to help her.
"My name is Alexi s and my daughter was brought in… can you please help me…where is Dr. Scorpio? What is happening with my daughter? Will someone please help me now?"
"Breathe Alexis."
She had heard the concern in his voice and it almost took her back to a happier time. Now it seems they couldn't even be in the same room without saying something they would both regret later. She just wanted to smack him.
"Why don't you just shut up? Kristina is in some sort of an accident, so don't you dare tell me to breathe." He heard fear in her voice.
"It's not going to help Kristina if you hyperventilate and faint."
"What the hell do you know about what Kristina needs? Why are you even here?"
"Kristina is still my daughter and Robin called me"
Just then, Robin and Patrick were walking towards them. Alexis and Sonny met them halfway.
"What happened to Kristina?"
"Alexis, Sonny, I think it's best if we sit down. Kristina has been in some sort of accident. She is beaten and bruised. She has a collapsed lung and a head trauma. "
"How did it happen?" asked Sonny immediately thinking of his business, his enemies.
"We are not sure. It looks like assault. Mac is here investigating."
"How is she doing?" Alexis asked.
"I have to be honest. She is not doing well. The next 24 hours are critical," Patrick replied
"Can we see her now?" Alexis demanded, getting up.
"In a few minutes, she just came out emergency surgery," Patrick said before leaving.
Robin stayed behind and watched two of the strongest people she knew falling apart. She thought of her daughter, Emma.
They stood apart, each grieving in their own way.
Sonny was slouched over with tears in his eyes and his head in his hands.
Alexis looked scared. She felt like she was back to the time when Kristina was on her death bed. But Kristina had pulled through and Alexis forced herself to believe that once again Kristina would fight back. She had to.
Sonny seemed to have the same idea and he walked over to Alexis and took her in her arms. He almost expected her to flinch, but she let him envelope her in his arms. It had been so long since they were in each other's arms. They both needed each other's strength now more than ever. This was their baby girl.
They were interrupted by Robin who told them they could see her one at a time. She warned them about how Kristina would look, but assured them they Kristina was a fighter just like her both her parents.
"You go in first, Alexis. I'll wait here." Alexis nodded gratefully.
