Thanks for all the reviews for the 1st chapter, I'm glad you're liking the story. Some of the medical info. in this chapter is probably not accurate, but I'm not a doctor, so just go with it. Let me know what you think.

Sonny got nervous as he approached Will's room. He didn't want to see the man he loved in pain, hooked up to all kinds of wires and machines, but he needed to see him, wanted to talk to him. He slowly opened the door and walked in.

"Hey, is this an okay time?" Sami and Lucas were sitting on either side of Will.

"Of course," Sami said.

"Come on Lucas, let's go grab some coffee." On the way out Sami stopped and hugged Sonny. "He would be so happy you're here." Sami closed the door when she left.

Sonny walked up to Will's bed and brushed his hair back off of his forehead.

"Hey, it's Sonny. I hope you can hear me." He sat down and took Will's hand between his. "You look so peaceful, I hope you're not in any pain. I never want to see you in pain. I went after Nick. I know I know, I shouldn't have but I couldn't help it after what he did to you. I need you to wake up because we have a lot of things to talk about and I just want to hear your voice. God, I wish I could kiss you right now." He kissed Will's hand. "I miss you so much."

Sonny started to cry again as he put his head down on the bed while still clutching Will's hand. He looked up when the door opened to see Lucas and the same police officer who took his statement a few minutes ago. "Hey, did you find the person who did this?"

"Sonny, I think you better come out here," Lucas said.

"Okay," Sonny said warily. He stood up and kissed Will's hand again, placing it gently on the bed at his side. "I'll be right back."

"What's up?"

"Sonny…" Lucas started.

"Sonny Kiriakis, you're under arrest for the assault of Nick Fallon."

Sonny couldn't believe the nerve of that man as he was being handcuffed. "What!? No, he started this whole thing. He almost killed my boyfriend."

"We can sort this out at the station."

"Please no. My boyfriend is in a coma, I can't leave him. I need to be here when he wakes up."

"Don't worry Sonny. Will is strong, he'll be okay. We'll stay with him," Sami said.

"Can I at least have a minute to say goodbye?"

"Sure, you have one minute. But the cuffs stay on."

Sonny walked back over to Will's bedside. "Hey, so I have to leave for a while but I promise I'll be back as soon as I can. Remember that no matter what, I love you more than anything." Sonny leaned down to kiss Will's forehead and he whispered in his ear, "Come back to me baby, I need you."

While he was sad having to leave Will, he walked out of the hospital with his head held high because his true Kiriakis had finally come out and it felt so good to take Nick down a peg. When he got to the police station he called his lawyer which also happened to be his father. Soon after, his parents arrived at the police station to see him.

"Sonny, are you okay?" Adrienne asked.

"I'm fine mom. I just want to get out of here so I can get back to Will at the hospital. Dad, what do I have to do?"

"I can see if I can talk to a judge about getting bail set, but it's Friday afternoon so you might be in here all weekend."

"Do what you can Dad. Thanks. Mom?"

"Yeah honey?"

"Can you go to the hospital and check on Will for me?"

"Sure sweetie."

"Tell him I love him and I need him."

"Of course. You just relax. Dad will get you out of here."

"Thanks mom."

Sonny paced in his jail cell. This wouldn't be so bad if he didn't want to be sitting with Will, holding his hand, and begging him to wake up so badly. He tried to sleep for a while to pass the time but every time he did all he saw was Will hooked up to all those tubes and wires laying in that hospital bed. He settled for laying there thinking about happy times with Will since it was the only thing that would keep him sane.

Sami and Lucas sat by Will's bedside holding his hands after Sonny left. They just talked to him hoping he could hear them. "You're probably wondering why Sonny isn't here. Well, he wants to be here and I know he'll be back as soon as he can, but he got arrested for defending you," Lucas said. "If I had any doubts about his feelings for you, I don't anymore."

They both turned when there was a knock at the door and Adrienne stuck her head in. "What do you want?" Sami spat out angrily.

"Sonny asked me to check on Will and to tell him something. How is he?"

"The same," Lucas said. "Thanks for coming by. Here, have my seat." Lucas said as he stood up and walked to the door. "I'm gonna get some coffee. I trust you two won't kill each other while I'm gone."

"We'll be fine. I'm not staying long," Adrienne said.

Adrienne took Will's hand. "Hi Will, it's Adrienne. I know I'm probably the last person you want to hear from, but I'm here for Sonny. He would give anything to be here with you, he's so worried about you. He told me to tell you he loves you and he needs you." With that, Adrienne laid his hand back down, stood up, and walked to the door. But before she left she turned around and looked at Sami.

"I know we disagree on a lot of things, including the relationship between our sons, but I'm truly sorry for what happened to Will. I can't even imagine what I would do if that was Sonny. And I just want him to be happy so if he wants to get back together with Will, I won't say anything against it."

As she turned to leave again Sami stood up and said, "Adrienne wait. I'm sorry about Sonny too, I know he was just trying to stick up for Will and we really appreciate that. If you need any help, let us know. Nick isn't the type of person you want to go up against alone."

"Thanks, but hopefully things won't get too out of hand." Adrienne left and Sami said to Will, "See? I knew she'd come around about you eventually, everyone loves you." She felt Will squeeze her hand when Lucas walked in.

"They didn't have any…"

"Lucas!" Sami interrupted.

"What, what's wrong?"

"Will just squeezed my hand."

"Are you sure?"

"Yes I'm sure. Go get a doctor."

He came back a few minutes later with Daniel who checked Will's vitals and asked, "What were you doing when he squeezed your hand?"

"Just talking to him. Adrienne was here before that."

"What were you talking about?"

"Sonny and his relationship with Will. Why? Is something wrong?"

"Not necessarily. It does appear that he's coming out of his coma though. It'll probably take a few hours for him to fully wake up."

"Is he okay? You said he needed to be in the coma to heal his brain."

"Well he's stubborn. He's fighting the medicine keeping him in the coma. Which means his brain is stronger than we thought. We'll continue to monitor him for a few days but this is a good sign that there is no lasting brain damage. I'm going to remove his breathing tube too so he'll be able to talk when he wakes up."

"Thanks Daniel," Lucas said.

Over the next few hours Will started to move around until he finally woke up.

"Sonny," he said groggily.
