AUTHOR'S NOTE: THIS CHAPTER IS NSFW, BUT AFTER WHAT SONNY AND AMANDA HAVE BEEN THROUGH, I THINK THEY DESERVE IT. DON'T WORRY, I HAVEN'T FORGOTTEN ABOUT OUR OLD PAL DECLAN.

Sonny spent the rest of Friday with Amanda. He had called Liv and told her he was taking a personal day to take care of her. They basically spent the whole day cuddled up together on the couch. When Audrey got home, she graciously offered to watch Jesse so Sonny and Amanda could go out.

Sonny took Amanda to his place. She had worn a simple navy button up, black skirt and navy heels. Her hair was in loose tresses, half pinned up. Sonny was still wearing his work suit but he had removed his jacket and rolled up his sleeves once they got inside so he could prepare their dinner.

He made her dinner, Chicken Carbonara with a tangy red wine. The aromas that filled the studio apartment were intoxicating as they sat at the table and enjoyed each other's company. They talked about Jesse, work and finally things with Declan.

"I wonder what he'll try next," Sonny commented, taking a bite of pasta.

"Does it matter? He's done the worst possible thing he could do and it still didn't break us apart," Amanda said as she sipped her wine.

"Nothing could ever tear us apart. I love you, 'Manda."

"I love you too Sonny."

He leaned over and took her hand. He kissed the back of it, his lips lingering on her smooth skin. He turned her hand over and kissed the inside of her wrist.

"Maybe we should continue this somewhere more comfortable," Amanda whispered. Sonny took the hint, left the dishes on the table and led Amanda to his couch; that same couch where a few weeks ago they become a couple.

Together they sat and Sonny wrapped his arms around Amanda.

"You know how much I love you?" he asked.

"Why don't you show me?" she suggested, her tone low and seductive.

He kissed her softly, his fingers tracing feather lite patterns down her neck and into the curve of her breasts. He leaned into her, pressing his tall, lean frame into her body and back against the couch seat. He moved his lips to the soft spot behind her ear and Amanda shivered.

"You like that?" he asked, the Staten Island as thick as ever.

"Mmhmm."

He continued teasing her skin beneath his lips. She wiggled and squirmed beneath his touch. His hand slid down her body, caressing her as she unbuttoned her shirt. He raised up and gently pulled the blouse from her body.

Sonny reached around and unclipped her bra, pulling the black lacy fabric from her body before he reached out and cupped it gently with his hand. His thumb reached out and brushed across her hardened nipple.

"You are so beautiful," he whispered to her before kissing a trail down her neck to her chest. His mouth closed around her nipple, flicking it with his tongue.

"Oh God Sonny," she moaned, her eyes closing in anticipation. He teased her, making her tingle down to her toes. Amanda wriggled beneath him, eager to get to her final destination.

His hand reached down and went beneath her skirt, leaving goosebumps in its wake. He encountered the lacy fabric covering her and pulled it down her legs.

"I need you now Sonny," Amanda whimpered.

He fought the button on his slacks, getting them open and down his legs. With one swift movement he was inside of her, holding on for dear life. They rocked together in a steady motion, all moves deliberate to spring that aching coil burning deep inside.

Amanda could feel it all coming at once. Her breathing began to quicken as Sonny increased his thrusts. Amanda cried out, feeling herself tightening around him as his moans became incoherent. With one final thrust, he came too.

Coming down from her high, Amanda began to catch her breath. She looked at Sonny, her fingertips grazing his temples as his shaking subsided. She looked deep into his blue eyes, she could see the love there and it was all for her. She gently kissed his forehead.

"I really do love you, you know that right?" she whispered to him. Sonny just looked at her.

"I know. Why are you askin'?"

"Cause the whole thing with Declan; if I had known it was him, I never would've done it."

"I know that 'Manda. Murphy took advantage of you and he knew that. He was looking for anyway he could to come between us but obviously it didn't work. I meant it when I said I love you and I meant it when I said I want to be with you and Jesse. I meant it when I said I would be her father. You should know me by now that I don't say things I don't mean."

"I do and I love you too."

Sonny rested his head on her chest and felt her heart beating under his ear. He could feel her love for him stronger than ever. Nothing Declan Murphy could ever do would come between them.
