Day 1

It was the first day of Christmas and the four of them were still sleeping. Arianna slept all night which was a good sign. Two bodies were snuggled deep into the other. Blonde hair disheveled as well as the brunette.

Will slowly woke up and turned around to face the person next to him. As soon as he turned around, blue eyes met brown.

"Morning." Sonny pulled him closer for a kiss.

"Morning to you too. So what's on the list today?"

"I was actually thinking that we go to the mansion today. My mom wants us to come over."

"Really? Huh."

"It will be fun. I promise."

"I believe you." Will reached forward for another kiss.

"Now, how about some breakfast?"

"Sounds good." They got up and got dressed. They met up with Gabi and Arianna who was already up and eating. They mentioned the plan for the day to Gabi and she agreed.


It was three o' clock and they were ready to leave. Soon, they were at the front of the door of the Kiriakis mansion. Sonny opened the door and they walked in after him.

"Sonny! Oh, I'm so glad you're here." Adrienne greeted them by the doors before they walked in to the family room. They heard chatter in the room before they walked in. Sonny walked in first and couldn't stop his eyes from nearly bulging out. His brothers stood out by the Christmas tree with their plus ones. Joeys eyes wandered until they fell on Sonny.

"Hey Sonny!" He gave him a brotherly hug and ruffled his hair a bit.

"Not the hair man. Seriously." He laughed and smoothed out what came out.

"Where's Will?"

"Right here." Will came up from behind Sonny. Will reached his hand for a handshake but Joey wasn't having it. He brought him into a brotherly hug as well. Introductions were made around as they sat on the couch and talked about everything and nothing. Their eyes were mostly on Arianna. Maggie came into the room and interrupted their idle conversations.

"Okay. Time to open up the presents." There were fifteen presents under the tree, one for everyone. After receiving their gifts, they all huddled together for a family picture, including Gabi as well.

After the picture was taken, they went back to talking and into fits of laughter. Neither Will or Sonny left each other's side. Gabi made it her mission to pull Sonny aside.

"Thank you Sonny so much. This means a lot to me."

"You don't have to thank me. You're part of the family now." She hugged him.

"I feel like I need to. I mean after everything I put you and Will through. I'm sorry for everything and I'm glad it's over with."

"That's all in the past now. I know I have put you through hell, but I'm happy that ex have forgotten everything that has happened. I'm glad you decided to come with us." She hugged him again and was happy to have him as a friend.

"What are you two doing over here?" Will came by and stood by the fireplace with them.

"Nothing much."

"Sonny would you mind helping me out. You're brothers won't leave me alone. Especially Alex, he's making me anxious." Sonny laughed at him and walked over to his brothers.

"Oh hey Sonny. We were just talking about you." When he saw the pictures that he was holding in his hands, Sonny's face went red.

"Oh no." He felt embarrassed and tried grabbing them. They wrestled with each other until they couldn't breathe. They all died of laughter when past childhoods were brought up from them. Sonny looked like he wanted to die of embarrassment.

Afterwards, they enjoyed a Christmas feast in the dining area. Will sat next to Sonny and Gabi sat next to Will with Arianna between them. The rest of the family sat beside them and across from them. They enjoyed the dinner and were glad they came.

It was around eleven o' clock when Arianna was already fast asleep. It was a long day for her and for the three of them. Adrienne walked them to the door.

"I'm glad you came. Don't be strangers you can come by any time. You're part of the family now." She addressed more towards Will and Gabi.

"Thank you." They both said at he same time and the four of them headed out.

Once they got back to the apartment, they were happy to be home. They said their goodnights to each other and went in their bedrooms. Will got under the covers and snuggled closely to Sonny.

"Wow. I have never been so full and exhausted in my life."

"Me too. I'm glad we went." Sonny wrapped his arm around Will who was close to falling asleep.

"Mmm. Goodnight Sonny. Love you."

"Goodnight Will. Love you too."
