Chapter 49- Eyes Open

The car ride was quiet, tense, and a blur to Will. There are so many things running through his head and he can't seem to make sense of any of them. The hospital was now in site, And Danny speeded up. Will wasn't the only lost in thought, Danny was at a fork in the road in his mind about where his loyalty stood. He loves his father but if he is the reason Sonny is in the hospital he will have a lot of explaining to do. He knows his father is stressed about the money, but how far will he go? Is maintaining this lifestyle worth Sonny's health to his father, because it's not worth it to Danny.

Will: "Pull over here" they are finally at the Hospital, now they needed to find Sonny. Luckily once they walked into the hospital Roman was talking to the doctor on duty. "Grandpa, What's going on where is Sonny?" Roman introduces Will and Danny to the doctor who admitted sonny

Doctor: "Well guys, like I was just telling Roman Sonny is stable" Will takes what feels like his first breath since the news of Sonny at the hospital "But this it where it gets interesting, He came I stable. There were no signs of trauma, his vital signs were normal, and there was not one starch on him" Roman, Will and Danny looked very confused

Will: "Wait what? Then why bring him to the hospital? And who brought him here?"

Roman: "That what we are trying to find out"

Danny: "Wait so we have no idea what happened or who did this?" Will knew exactly who it was but now is not the time he just wants to see his boyfriend

Will: "I need to see him" he starts walking to Sonny's room, but was stopped by Romans hand holding his arm and the doctor

Doctor: "Will I understand you are worried and want to see him, but listen to me Sonny is stable"

Will: "Okay so why don't you let me see him" he states annoyed

Doctor: "He arrived in an ambulance after a call to 911 was made, He was found passed out in an alley" Wills heart raced just thinking about hurting Sonny "The police suspected robbery but they found money and his wallet still on him, and like I said there is no physical sign of struggle" Will was becoming very anxious

Will: "Well what did he say when he woke up?" Roman then puts his arm on his shoulder

Roman: "That's the thing Will, he hasn't woken up" Wills heart sank, how could that be the doctor just said he was stable "They are doing he best they can to…"

Will: "That's bullshit! They are not doing anything" he screams, then turns his attention to the doctor "Why aren't you helping him, you not doing your job" He screams, the hospital staff and other patients and their families all stop what they are doing and become quiet

Roman: "Hey! Hey!" he tried to pull Will back " HEY! Enough!" Danny helps Roman pull Will out into the parking lot of the hospital "Are you done?" He asks "Stop acting like a baby Will, I get your worried but picking a fight with a man who is trying to help is not helping" Will takes and deep breath

Will: "Your right, I'm sorry I'm just worried grandpa" Roman puts his arm around Will to comfort him "I-I don't know what I would do without him, I love him. I'm frustrated he is in there and I'm out here not able to help. I don't know what to do"

Roman: "I know, but me and the men are not going to stop until we find out what happened" he states "Sonny is a fighter, he has been though worse. He will wake up" he pats Will on the back "Now go and see him, I'm sure the first thing he was to see when you wake up is his crazy boyfriend" Will laughs though the tears building up in his eyes

Will: "yeah" he smiles "When he wakes up can we not tell him I almost killed his doctor" now Roman smiles

Roman: "Only if you promise not to do it again, Deal?" Roman knows Will is going to do it again but it's worth a try

Will: "No promises but I will try" With that Roman says goodbye and drives of back to the scene of the crime, more determined than ever to find out what happened to Sonny. Will was ready to walk back into the hospital when someone called out his name

JJ: "Hey man, I came as soon as I heard" they exchange a quick hug "What the hell is going on?" Will explains everything the doctor told him and Everything he and Danny talked about so JJ was now up to speed "Wait so were is Danny?" Will turned around to see Danny had gone missing

Will: "He was here but I guess he inside now?" Danny couldn't have done this he was with Will unless it was as a distraction and he and his father were in on it "I have my suspicions about who did this but right now I want to make sure my boyfriend is okay, I am not going to go on a rampage and miss the moment he wakes up" They make their way back into the hospital and finally into Sonny's room. Seeing Sonny laying there so lifeless breaks his heart "Once he wakes up and I see he is okay, Danny's father better get ready because I'm coming for him"

Danny is now making his way down back to the scene of the crime but unlike Roman, he is going to the real scene not the ally were his father dropped him off at but to the apparent. Seeing Sonny at the hospital hit him hard, he could not believe his father had gone that far and for what? For money? This was not part of the plan; Danny would have never agreed to this. His father has taken this way to far, possible pass the point of no return and he wanted answers.

He finally arrived at the apartment were the smell of ginger tea hit him right away. He walked into the living room and noticed the tea set was out and set for two people. He didn't find that strange because his parents enjoyed tea but what he did find strange was the fact his father was sitting there with his glasses on taking a sip and reading the newspaper like nothing was wrong.

Danny: "what the hell is going on!" he yelled as he walked towards his father "Do you have any idea what you have done"

Michael: "Hello son, Would you like a cup of tea?" Danny could not believe his father was being so nonchalant about the situation "let me get you a fresh cup, Sonny used that cup" The way those words came out of his mouth send chills down Danny's back. There was no denial or remorse

Danny: "Are you insane!" Danny was in total disbelief "You're not even going to deny it; how could you do something like this" is father smiled

Michael: "Oh Danny boy, don't be so sensitive" he now takes a patronizing tone "I did what you were not man enough to do" Danny was about to say something but he was cut off "Not another word from you, I did what was best for our family. Something you didn't have the guts to do"
Danny: " this is not right, This was not part of the plan!" he yells

Michael: "Danny you can't be that naïve, you are starting to sound like Sonny" he obviously didn't mean that as a compliment "did you really think he was going to forgive you after all you did. I mean honestly Daniel; this was always the plan you just didn't want to see it like this"

Danny: "because it's wrong dad! I mean do you hear yourself, you are talking about someone life here" Danny finally understand why Sonny hated this life. This lifestyle or as Sonny would say "mirage" made a shell out of him. Instead of a man in front of me there stands an illusion of someone that use to be his father but is now just skin and bone. Sure he's alive if living is just a beating heart, but living means loving and his father doesn't have an ounce of love in his body. "I'm not going to fight with you about this anymore, whatever it is you did to Sonny you need to undo. I will not stand by you in this, come clean or I will do it for you" the cycle is finally broken but is it too late?

Michael: "You will not tell a soul about this Daniel. I did not get this far too chicken out." He seemed calm and collected on the outside but if Danny blows their cover is all over for them "I will not be humiliated" he has worked too hard to go down because his son is too weak "Tell me something Danny, do you love Sonny?"

Danny: "Yes, that is why I can't let you hurt him" Bingo his father thinks, that is how he will make Danny play along with his scam

Michael: "I know you love him, and how does it feel to know that Sonny is in love with that barbarian of Will Horton" Michael can see he is getting thought to Danny "What if I told you I could change that" Danny looks confused and you could tell he is having an inner struggle he knows this is wrong but he loves Sonny

Danny: "what did you do to him?" Michael smiles

Michael: "Well I know people in high places, you see that teacup" he points at the tea cup Sonny had drank out of "well Inside there is not only a wonderful cup of green tea but a little something extra"

Danny: "did you poison him! Are you nuts how will that help me?"

Michael: "let me finish" he can tell that if he words this right Danny will be back on board "it's not poison, like I said I have people all over the world and one of my kind friends sent me this" he lifted a small ampule with clear liquid in it "it's not poison it a formula, tell me Danny do you know what amnesia is?"

Danny: "when you forget or can't remember something"

Michael: "Correct, well depending on how much you take is how much you forget. And luckily for you Sonny had enough to forget Will Horton. What's perfect about this is that is acts like a hormone so the doctors won't be able to trace it, they will come to dead end in trying to figure out what's wrong with him"

Danny: "I don't see how that helps me, Sonny will still hate me and still will not want to be with me" Once again Michael smiles

Michael: "Well luckily for you he doesn't remember he hates you because when he wakes up..." Michael stops himself there and looks at his watch "actually instead of me telling you and ruining the surprise why don't you go see for yourself"

Danny: "If I don't like what I see, I will turn you in" He hates himself for being this selfish but He loves Sonny and will do anything to have him back…. ANYTHING!

Back at the hospital Will is going crazy, two fights with the doctors and four cups of coffee later Will is sitting at Sonny's bedside stocking his hand. He places kisses on his hand hoping that Sonny is able to feel them. If only this way like the movies where a kiss would wake his boyfriend but it's not.

JJ: "Hey you have been here all, you should go home and shower maybe take a nap" he says worried "Gabby said she would keep a close eye on our guy" Gabby had come in a little earlier, she was assigned as Sonny's nurse witch made will a little more conformable. He likes gabby she is a great nurse and a great fiend to Sonny so he knows he is in good hands

Will: " No, I will not leave until I know he is okay" at that moment gabby came in to take rutien vital signs

Gabby: " Any change?" Will nods no "Don't worry Will he will be okay, we are worried about you too though" she looks over at JJ and back at Will "How you holding up" Will wipes his eyes and kisses Sonny's hand before speaking

Will: "I just keep replaying all our fights since Danny came back" he sniffs "I'm such an asshole, I have been a horrible boyfriend. I haven't supported him enough, I let my own feeling get in the way of him being able to make peace with his own"

Gabby: "But you were protecting him"

Will: "Yeah but I could have handled things better" he lets go on Sonny's hand and reaches for something in his pocket. He pulls out a little black box and Gabby gasps

Gabby: "Oh my god…Is that a ring?" she is so overwhelmed with joy, Sonny and Will deserve to be happy

Will: "Yeah, I was going to propose to him" That sounds to crazy to him now that he says it out loud, if you would have told him a year ago he would be here with Sonny about to propose he would have laughed but now here he is "I'm still going to but I need him to wake up so I could look at those beautiful brown eyes and ask him to marry me" Gabby was tearing up and JJ was trying to hold his own tears back. Will decided to slip the ring on Sonny's finger and pride fills his emotions knowing Sonny will be his forever.

JJ: "He will wake up Will, and when he doses you are going to make him the happiest…" He was about to finish his sentence when "Danny? What the hell are were did you go?" Will got up and walked towards him, grabbed him by the collar of his shirt and slammed him against the wall

Will: "I swear to god if you had something to do with this I will kill you" JJ and Gabby try to separate them but it was useless something had come over Will "What the hell are you doing here! Did you go inform daddy that the plan work and now your back to laugh in my face" As much as Danny knows this is wrong he wants Sonny back and if he has to lie then so be it

Danny: "I had nothing to do with this, let me go" Will let's go just because he doesn't want the first thing Sonny to see when he wakes up is him beating the shit out of Danny "I went to loo for my father"

Will: "Well what happened, did you find the son of a bitch?" Will wants answers

Danny: "I did not but I do think…" he was interrupted by a sound the machine connected to Sonny made. Will and everyone else rushed to Sonny's side

Will: "Sonny! Sonny baby can you hear me" Sonny is finally moving and trying to wake up "Oh god, Sonny baby its me Will"

Gabby: "I'm getting the doctor" she runs out and Will can't believe it, he has never been so relieved.

Finally, Sonny opens his eyes.
