"what did you say to Will?"

"It's nice to see you, too." Brian smiled.

"What did you say to him?"

"Nothing he didn't already knew. Just that we had fun."

"You implied that we slept together, didn't you."

"I never said we had sex. I promise Sonny. I wouldn't."

"No, but making it sound like we did is nothing better."

Brian stayed silent.

"What did Will say about it?"

"Nothing. He went back to work."

"Brian, I came here to tell you to stop calling me. If you haven't gotten the message, then here it is. I don't want to be with you. You were my friend, but not anymore. It would be best if you stopped trying and left me alone. You don't want me on your bad side. Trust me on this."

Sonny didn't know where to look for Will, so he tried with Sami, Marlena, Chad and E.J. But none of them would help. Apparently Will wanted to start new for real. He didn't want anything to do with him anymore. In the months that went by they all went silent whenever he brought up Will.

Sonny had searched everywhere and tried everything. Almost everything.

"Can I please talk to you? It's important". Big, brown eyes were looking at him shocked. He noticed she was gaining and the due date must be close now.

He hated himself for not being brave enough sooner. Of course Gabi would know where Will was. He was her baby's father. She would know.

He did not want to talk to her, but he had no choice.

"What do you want, Sonny?"

"Will."

"I want Will, do you know where he is?"

"I do, but why would I tell you? If you don't know, then he apparently doesn't want you to know".

"You owe me, Will did everything for you. He kept the secret, he didn't tell me but lied. I know he gave up his kid because of me but he was wrong. I want to tell him that."

"He didn't do it for you."

"What? What are you talking about, he told me this."

"He did it for the child. He wanted to take responsibility, be the father, but I asked him not too. Nick was ready to step in and be the father. Will grew up in custody war. Going from one place to the other, not belonging anywhere. He didn't want it for his child. He wanted him or her to belong. Like he finally did with you. So when he finally agreed he wanted you to know about it, too."

Sonny needed time to process this. Plus, he didn't think he heard the last line correct.

"What did you last say?"

"He wanted to tell you, Nick and I asked him not too. We didn't want anyone else to know, the more people who know a secret, the more likely it is to come out. Which it eventually did anyway."

The more they talked the more they realized they once liked each other. They were friends. Sonny was only mad at her for one reason. She was part of the reason he lost Will. For that, he would always be mad at her.

"So, I repeat. Do you know where Will is?"
