When We Wake Up
Chapter 19

Sonny woke up and looked at the woman beside him. God, she is beautiful he thought to himself. She has grown on him so fast he can't believe it. No other woman has ever done that. He rolls over to look at the clock careful not to wake her. He needed to call Jason. He dialed Jason's number and waited for an answer.

"Hello"

"Jason, its me."

"Sonny where have you been? You ditched your guards" Jason said on the other line.

"I know, I know. Listen I'll be back in Port Charles tonight. I need you to check something for me."

"Anything"

"I need you to check on my wife.."

"Wife? Sonny, did you just say wife?" Jason sounded so stunned Sonny couldn't help but laugh.

"Yes wife, its a long story I'll explain later. I need you to run a check on Caroline Benson and a man named Mark Lorezno."

"Sonny I've heard of Lorenzo, he's not go news." Jason said getting worried.

"I know, I've already heard things, let me know what you find."

"Okay. I'll get right on it."

"Oh and Jason....Can you go over to my penthouse and make sure the maid puts fresh flowers out?"

"Sonny out of all the orders you've given me that has to be the most ridiculous." Jason laughed into the phone. He knew he'd do anything Sonny asked him but he sure had to laugh.

"Oh shut up and do it" Sonny laughed and hung up the phone.

He picked back up the phone and decided to order breakfast. He ordered a little bit of everything, cause he didn't know what she liked. He didn't know a lot about her he realized. He'd just have to rectify that. He headed to the bathroom to take a shower.

Fifteen minutes later and feeling fresh Sonny heard a knock at the door and went to answer it. He gave the man a tip and rolled the cart into the room. He couldn't believe she was still sleeping. He grabbed a strawberry and headed to the bed.

He climbed on the bed and rubbed the strawberry across her lips. It took a couple times but finally a tongue flicked out to lick it. She opened up her mouth and took a tiny bite. She opened her eyes and looked at him.

"Good Morning" Sonny smiled at her.

"Good Morning, Mmmm what a way to wake up." Carly smiled back as she took another bite of the strawberry he was still holding. She reached up and took it from him and he got up to get more.

"I don't normally eat breakfast, but something about you makes me hungry." Carly winked at Sonny.

"Hmm, hungry for what?"

"Well right now, food, we'll discuss other things later." She got up off the bed and went to sit down at the table.

Sonny watched her walk, he loved the way she looked in his shirt, like she belonged there.

"Would you stop watching me and come on with the food, I'm hungry." Carly said.

"I'm coming, I'm coming." Sonny laughed and wheeled the cart to her.

"Now where have I heard that before" Carly laughed and winked at him.

"Honey if you keep that up I'll be saying it again and you'll be joining me." Sonny teased her back.

"Is that a threat or a promise?"

"Oh honey, that's definitely a promise." Sonny laughed and watched as Carly piled the food onto her plate. He loved a woman with a healthy appetite and this woman definitely had one.

Carly noticed him staring "What are you staring at?"

"Your beautiful you know that?"

Carly smiled at him then continued to eat. "So what are we doing today?"

"Well that depends, do you want to finish our conversation from last night about your sister?"

"Not really, can we postpone it for a little while" Carly asked hoping he would give her some time.

"Of course. Well then I guess we only have one other option." he smiled and took a bite of his eggs. "We're headed back to Port Charles."

"No way."
