Chapter 11
"Wow. You've obviously been very busy." Will said. He sat across from Sonny in the Club that he owns. Sonny has told Will all that he had been up to until recently. He left a few parts out, not wanting to get into them.
"I'm sorry. I'm probably talking your ear off." Sonny laughed nervously.
"No. It's fine. Besides, I like listening to you talk. It's one of the things I missed about you." Will smiled.
"Thanks Will. I really appreciate you stopping by. You didn't have to. I mean, I know I asked you to, but you could've said no. I didn't really want to waste your time or anything." Sonny stuttered nervously.
"Okay." Will laughed as he couldn't hold it in anymore.
"Why are you laughing at me?"
"You're adorable when your nervous."
"First of all, don't call me adorable ever again. And I'm not nervous." Sonny said as he spilled his coffee on his shirt.
"Right." Will laughed.
"What about you?" Sonny turned the tables on Will.
"What about me?" Will cleared his throat.
"You look nervous to me."
"I am nervous, I'm not gonna lie."
"You don't sound like you are."
"I guess I'm just trying not to show it. I better get going though. Thanks for everything." Will got up from his chair and was about to leave.
"Will, wait. Don't go." Will turned around and faced Sonny.
"I can't stay Sonny. My son needs me right now. And I have to get up early tomorrow morning."
"I just want...I need more time."
"More time for what?"
"Uh..." Sonny tried to say the words. But for some reason, the words were stuck in his mouth.
"Sonny, we're both adults here. You don't have to be nervous around me. And I get that you need more time to think things through. So, I will let you think things over."
"That's not what I meant Will. What I was trying to say, what I am trying to say is that I need more time. More time with you."
"Sonny, I..I don't know what to say."
"Just hear me out. I know I've been talking your ear off, but I need you to hear this. I just want us to spend more time together. I want us to start all over again. I probably sound desperate. I'm not trying to sound like it though. And I know you haven't been here a month. I guess I sound stupid for bringing it up, I'm sorry. I just, um, I'll just let you..." Sonny's sentence was cut off as Will walked closer and pulled him close for a kiss.
"...go"
"Sonny, I don't want to go."
"But you..."
"I know what I said Sonny. But I don't want to go. Like you said before, I want us to start again too."
"You mean that?"
"I do. But let's just take it..."
"...slow. Right?" Sonny gave a small laugh.
"Yeah."
"How does tomorrow at six o' clock sound then?"
"Are you asking me out?" Will laughed.
"I am."
"It sounds perfect. I can get my grandma to babysit my baby. I know she won't mind."
"I wouldn't mind if you bring him along."
"Are you sure? I mean, he can be a handful sometimes, and gets a little cranky."
"I'm sure. And I was sad that he didn't get to join us today."
"I know. But he had a little fever. I didn't want it to get worse. I will see you tomorrow then?"
"Uh, yes. I will you pick you up at your place."
"Sounds good. See you later Sonny."
"See you." Sonny wasn't sure how any of that happened, but he was glad that it did. All he wanted, is a second chance with Will.
