Will and Sonny collapsed onto the bed as they got back to Sonny's apartment. They had gone back to the pub to see the kids, who were hopped up on sugar and didn't crash out until 12:30 in the morning when Will and Sonny put them to bed at Caroline's.
"I don't remember being that hyper when I was their age." Said Will
"I think I understand what my brothers and I put my parents through when we were their age." Said Sonny "I'm 22 and you're 20, we should not be this tired."
"Right." Said Will "Um we wait at least five years before we have kids."
"Deal." Said Sonny "I have to ask though. I hadn't-I wasn't sure if I should."
"Babe, you can ask me anything." Said Will
"What if Gaby told you the truth? What if Gaby didn't get an abortion?" asked Sonny
"Then I'd be getting ready to be a father, hoping that you wouldn't run for the hills, but would completely understand if you did." Said Will
"I wouldn't have run." Said Sonny "I promise."
"I would have told you the truth, at least I'd like to think so." Said Will
"What would have kept you from telling me?" asked Sonny
"I'd like to think nothing." Said Will "But knowing Gaby and what I do know about Nick. Nick probably would have come up with some elaborate ruse, claim the baby as his, and they'd use my insecurities about how I was raised to manipulate me into thinking that his idea was best for everybody, especially the baby."
"I know Nick's supposed to be some sort of genius dude, but come on." Said Sonny
"He's also a Horton." Said Will
"Good point." Said Sonny
"Hey," said Will
"Hello I'm related to Abigail to remember." Said Sonny
"Between me being a Horton and a Brady and you being a Kiriakis and a Deveraux it'll be a miracle if we're remotely functional." teased Will as he pulled Sonny into a kiss.
"Merry Christmas baby." Said Sonny
"Merry Christmas." Said Will
It had been a perfect first Christmas together, the first of many.
