She wasn't in bed with him when he woke up and that sent him into a panic. Had he imagined the entire thing? He heard a voice coming from the common area and slipped on his boxers to go see what was happening. There was Sabrina wearing Michael's dress shirt and on the phone talking in a hushed whisper to someone on the phone.

"Did she give you any trouble? That's good. Thank you so much Juan for watching her. Okay. I'll see you soon. Love you. Bye." She hung up the phone and wanted to go bed before Michael started to worry but she was too late. She gasped when she saw Michael standing behind her.

"Michael! Warn a person next time okay?"

"Sorry. I woke up and you weren't there. I was worried."

"I had to call Juan to check up on Sophia. I was supposed to call hours ago and if I didn't check in, he'd send every cop in Port Charles after me."

"I didn't know he moved here." Before she could stop herself Sabrina hit him with a low blow.

"You'd know if you hadn't ignored me for a whole year practically."

This was the conversation the two needed to have. Michael would had much preferred staying naked in bed for most of the day but he knew better.

"That was a dig at me and you know it."

"Did I lie? You couldn't wait to get away from me the moment you gave me back my daughter."

"What was I supposed to do? You lied to me for months. Made me believe that the baby was mine when it wasn't! I didn't even want to look at you for months."

"I lied to protect you and the baby! What is so difficult to understand about that?"

"If you would've just told me the truth from the very beginning I-"

"The results would've been the same, Michael. And you know it."

"That's not true." Sabrina snorted at how naïve he was being.

"I was carrying a baby by a man who shot your father with a bullet that left him paralyzed. The guilt that I felt every single day was killing me. No matter how hard I tried to forget that he was the father, I couldn't. I wanted him no where near her or me."

"That right there is another problem."

"What?"

"You knew Carlos was alive and said nothing. Imagine my shock when he went and kidnapped our daughter. I couldn't even yell at you properly because of a damn coma." It was not lost on either of them that Michael called Sophia their daughter but the anger radiating in the room had them ignoring that for the time being.

"I'm not going to apologize for ensuring that you wouldn't kill Carlos and get sent to jail."

"That's how your justifying it in your mind? That's laughable, Sabrina."

"This conversation is pointless. We can't come back from this anyways, so what's the point? Last night was a complete mistake."

"Do you truly believe that?" Of course Sabrina didn't think it was a mistake. She was still in love with him.

"Yes." She made her way towards the bedroom but Michael stopped her before she could make it far enough.

"Your nose twitches when you lie."

"Excuse me?"

"I've never noticed it before but it twitches. Not a lot, only a little but it does. You don't regret last night no more than I do. I'm putting all the cards out on the table. I still love you. I never stopped. No matter how pissed off I am at you for lying to me, there's not a day that goes by when I'm not thinking about you. I want to be a father to Sophia. I want to raise her together as a family. All you have to do is admit that you still love me too and we can give her that." Tears were now running down Sabrina's face and she could barely open her mouth to speak.

"I still love love you too. So much."

"Then what are we waiting for?"

"The other shoe to drop."

"Everything is out in the open now. Right?" Michael didn't know if he could handle there being another secret between them.

"Did you kill Carlos in Puerto Rico or did someone else?" Michael's hands dropped from Sabrina's face and he took a step back.

"Why do you think he's dead?"

"You suck at lying too. I knew he was dead the moment you walked into my hospital room with Sophia. I just want to know did you do it. I promise I won't be mad."

"No. I didn't kill Carlos. Sam did."

"Okay. Remind me to thank her face to face."

Michael didn't know how to react to Sabrina at the moment. He wanted to get their conversation back on track.

"Can we focus? I need to know where we stand."

"I want you and only you. But we can't forget what happened."

"I know that. I'm not saying we should. We can move past it.

"I'm not trying to keep going into circles here. I just want to make sure you won't regret this. I have to think about Sophia now. I'm overly protective and I don't know if I can handle you coming into her life and then giving up."

"No, I understand. We go back to the start then."

"What does that even mean?"

"Sabrina Santiago, will you go out on a date with me?" Sabrina couldn't help but laugh at Michael's question.

"Seriously?"

"Seriously." She playfully rolled her eyes at him.

"Yes, I will go out on a date with you."

"Thank God. Can we go back into bed now? Please?"

"I need food first. You know sustenance, protein, the works. We have a few hours to kill."

"You're right. Only plans we have is staying in bed and seeing our daughter later. Come on." Michael grabbed Sabrina's hand and pulled her into the bedroom where they spent the rest of the morning reacquainting themselves with each other.
