It was Christmas time in Salem. Sonny was smiling as he and Will walked hand in hand out of the coffee shop. It had been a crazy couple of weeks with the discovery of what Gaby had done to Melanie, all because she wanted Chad. Nick and Gaby eloping for whatever reason, you can bet Rafe and Hope loved that one. The revelation of Stefano calling Nick telling him to drop the assault charges against Chad, and Nick listening to him for whatever reason. Sonny could only imagine what Old Man DiMera told Nick to get him to back off. Will stopped walking abruptly and pulled Sonny into a kiss "I love you so much."

Sonny smiled. "I love you too." Sonny pulled Will into another kiss "What do you want for Christmas?"

"I already have everything I want." Said Will. Sonny laughed "I'm serious. Babe, a year ago I was miserable. I was dealing with my mom and EJ sleeping together and her hiding it from Rafe. I was going through the discovery of who I am, and I hated myself. But now, this year, I am happy. I love who I am. I love you. I am extremely happy with my life."

Sonny smiled and kissed Will "So am I." Sonny placed his hand on Will's cheek before running it back through the blonde hair. "Last Christmas was sort of disappointing for me too."

"Explain." Said Will

"Before I came to Salem I was seeing this guy." Said Sonny "I was slightly crazy about him and then out of nowhere he ended it. I decided to come back to Salem for the summer and regroup. I decided to stay because I met some awesome people, and made amazing friends. Right before Christmas I had gone on that weekend trip with my brothers."

"Right, you came back kind of ticked off." Said Will

"I ran into my ex." Said Sonny "We ended up hooking up. I was delusional, thinking that he and I were going to get back together. That he had changed. I was pissed off at myself because I had let him get to me. I let him break my heart all over again. I realized he was a jerk. I started to think that love wasn't for me." Will gently brushed away a tear that was starting to fall on Sonny's cheek. "This year, I have you, who I love more than I thought possible to love anyone. I just have you and that's all I need."

"Will you come somewhere with me?" asked Will

"I'll go anywhere with you." Said Sonny

Sonny looked at Will with surprise when they reached their destination.

"The town square?" asked Sonny looking around as it was bustling with lots of people finishing up their Christmas shopping "What's so special about the town square?"

"Last night I was watching the kids." Said Will "Ally asked me when I started to want to be more than friends with you."

"Did she?" asked Sonny

"I started thinking about it." Said Will and he pointed to the stairs "It was right over there on those stairs. My mom, dad, and I had just gotten into it about me working for EJ. You came back to make sure I was okay."

"I remember." Said Sonny with a smile

"You had put your hand on my knee," said Will "and told me you didn't want anything to happen to me. I know I had put my hand on your knee as well. But when you touched me, I felt this calmness come over me, like no matter what EJ would throw at me, as long as I had you in my corner everything was going to be okay. I didn't know that I was falling for you, because I never truly knew what it meant to fall in love. I cared about Mia and Gaby, but something always felt off with them. With you, nothing felt off, except fighting with you or not talking with you." Sonny smiled as they sat down on the stairs. "I wanted you to know this is where it started for me, even though I didn't know it at the time. This is where I started to fall in love with you."

Sonny smiled and kissed Will "For me it was over there." Said Sonny pointing to the area where the plaque for Tom and Alice Horton stood. "It was not long after you had come out to me. I saw you with your brother and sisters. You had all gotten ice cream, and Johnny had dropped his, so you gave him yours. I thought, there is someone I could fall in love with."

"I guess this whole place has so much meaning for us." said Will

"Yeah I guess it does." Said Sonny "I love you so much Will. We're having our first Christmas together-"

"The first of many." Said Will "I promise you that."

"Come here." Said Sonny pulling Will into a kiss.

"Let's get out of here." Said Will
