Chapter 1
Sonny sat in the pew in the church as he listen to his good friend Robin is giving the eulogy about the person Stone was. It was taking everything in Sonny not to break down and cry right there. He knew he had to be strong for Robin and Brenda but he honestly did not know what he was going to do without Stone. It was like a part of his sole was rip from him, and he didn't know if he would ever be the same again. After Robin was finished she walked to the front pew and Mac and Brenda got up to embrace her. After the service Sonny went back to his penthouse and walked into the room that was previously occupied by Stone. Sonny kept the room exactly the way Stone had left it. He walked around the room and brushed his fingers along some of Stones possessions. He picked up the picture on Stone nightstand it was a group picture of him, Brenda, Stone, and Robin. Sonny sat on Stone bed staring at the picture letting his mind drift back to the day the picture was taken. Flashback: Stone, Robin, and Brenda were sitting on the patio of Sonny penthouse laughing. In come Sonny "ok dinner is served. I don't mean to brag but it is my best masterpiece." They all laughed, it was typical Sonny who was always cocky and sure of himself but they all love him anyway. "Yeah you really should become a chef." Said Robin. "Wow Sonny this great. It's definitely the best pasta I ever had" Said Stone. Sonny laughed he never got tired of being told what a great chef he is. "All shucks you guys are too much." "Anyway is anyone excited about Ned and Lois up coming wedding." Brenda jumped in all excited. She was going to be the best person at Lois and Ned wedding since she was best friends with both of them and was obviously excited about it. "Obviously not as much as you are Brenda" laughed Stone. Robin patted Stone on the arm "oh leave Brenda alone if she wants to be excited about her two closets friends becoming one in holy matrimony let her. And I for one think weddings are romantic." "Thank you Robin." "Oh nice lets gang up on Stone. That's alright I see how it is." Said Stone with mock hurt. Everyone burst into laughter. "Oh poor baby do you need me to kiss you and make you feel better." Stone leaned closer to Robin "well it couldn't hurt." And the two briefly and sweetly kissed. Then Brenda brought out her camera. "Ok guys I'm going to put my camera on its timer so let's get in for a group picture." The four friends lean in and smile as the camera snapped the picture." End of Flashback.
Sonny woke up and didn't realize how long he was out for. He put the picture back on the nightstand and then his resolved finally broke and he broke down into tears and cried like he hasn't since he was a child. Sonny was a lost and broken man and he didn't know if he could go on living without Stone. Life just wasn't the same and anything that matter to him before didn't matter to him now. Sonny wipe his tears from his face and got up and walked out of Stone room. Sonny went down the hall to his room and went in his closet and pulled out his suitcase and started packing his clothes. He needed to get away from Port Charles for awhile. There were just too many memories of Stone, and it was too much for Sonny to bare. Sonny picked up his phone and dialed the number for the train station and booked a ticket to the next train to Brooklyn. He was going to go back to where he grew up and maybe just maybe get some semblances of his life back.
Sonny wrote a letter for Robin and one for Brenda, letting them know how he was feeling and where he was going and not to worry about him. He left the letters on the coffee table in the foyer. He took one last look at the penthouse and then flip the switch and left. "Brooklyn here I come."
I hope you all enjoy my story so far. Coming up next Sonny reconnects with the Cerullos and runs into Olivia the two catch up and Sonny meets her son Dante and has an instant connection to.
