When We Wake Up
Chapter 27

Carly rolled over and realized the spot next to her was empty. Hmmm...wonder where he went, she thought to herself. She lays back on her back and smiles toward the ceiling remembering last night. They had never got a chance to go dinner. When he tried to stand to go make dinner she grabbed him and pulled him back into bed. They hadn't left since. She reaches her hand over and rubs the bed, wondering where he could be.

"Guess I better get up" she sighed.

"No, you don't" Carly looked up to see Sonny coming into the room with a tray full of food.

"Your always trying to feed me" Carly laughed as she sat up against the headboard.

"Well I think it's important that we eat right"

"Oh god not one of those, I'm not going to get cheeseburgers anymore am I?"

Sonny shook his head. "They're aren't good for you. They are greasy, fatty......."

"But that's why I like them" Carly pretended to pout and Sonny couldn't resist.

"Well maybe once in a while you can have them."

Carly leaned over and kissed his cheek "Aww thanks hun" Carly sat back and took a bite of her eggs. "We sound like an old married couple already" Carly laughed.

"Good" Sonny said as he helped her eat some of the bacon.

"Sonny this is good, where did you learn to cook?" Carly watched as his eyes clouded over. She put her hand to his face. "What's wrong? What did I say? I'm sorry"

Sonny reached up and took her hand in his. "It's ok honey, it's not you. My mother was the one that taught me to cook, and I just don't like to think about it much. It's nothing you did." he smiled and kissed her hand. "What would you like to do today?"

"Stay in bed" winking at him.

He laughed. "Well I would love to do that also, but we have to go out sometime."

"Well I got an idea, but I can't imagine you would do it."

"What?" Sonny asked afraid of the answer.

"Shopping"

"Shopping?"

"Yes, Sonny, shopping. I need some things." she looked down suddenly remembering she had very little money. "Is there a Wal-mart around here?"

"What the heck is a Wal-mart?" Sonny looked confused.

"Oh my god, you've never been to Wal-mart? Where do you shop?"

"Well mostly I let me men shop for me, and my suits are tailor made....."

Carly held up her hand to stop him "I get it, I get it.....jeeez, well I need to go someplace I can afford and tailor made stuff definitely isn't that."

"I have plenty of money."

"I don't want your charity Sonny."

"It's not charity Carly, we're married now, anything I have you are welcome to, except business."

Carly rolled her eyes at the business remark. "I figured that part out when you left me alone to talk to Jason."

"Hey, I apologized, but I can't promise not to do it again."

"I guess I can live with that for now. So about that money? You sure you got plenty, and don't mind sharing?"

Sonny laughed "Help yourself Carly, I also have accounts will all the local stores. I will have Johnny call and add you to all my accounts."

"How about you do it yourself in person, let's go shopping" Carly smiled and Sonny found it hard to resist her.

He threw his hands up in the air. "Fine, Fine, get ready and meet me downstairs. I have a couple phone calls to make." He kissed her cheek and she jumped out of bed.

"This is going to be so much fun! You'll see Sonny"

"I can't wait" Sonny yelled back sarcastically as he left the room.

~~~~~~~

Thirty minutes later Sonny was finishing up his last call as Carly come down the stairs.

"You finally ready?" Sonny asked.

"Hahha, I don't take that long." Carly looked around at the penthouse. "You know we could use some more stuff in here. Brighten up the place, you know? Why is it so dark in here?"

"I like it dark, and what kind of things are we talking about here?"

"Oh I don't know, but we'll look today."

"Okay fine, you ready to go?"

Carly nodded and grabbed her purse. Sonny opened the door and nodded to Johnny. Johnny followed them out and helped them into the limo.

"Do you go everywhere in a limo?" Carly asked when they were settled in the car.

"Yes, why?"

"I don't know, I just thought...that maybe..you'd like to ride like a normal person"

"I'm not a normal person."

"No I guess your not" Carly laughed. "Do I get to ride in the limo, if I go off somewhere. Or do I have to take a cab?"

"No wife of mine will take a cab, you can take the limo."

"Wow I feel special" Carly laughed and kissed him.

"You should...You are" Sonny smiled and they sat back and enjoyed the ride.

They pulled up in front of Wyndams and Johnny helped them out. Sonny nodded to Johnny to stay by the door as they headed in.

"Does he go with you everywhere?" she asked.

"Him or another one. He will be your bodyguard if you leave the penthouse though. Don't go anywhere without him." Sonny told her.

"Okay Okay, now lets get to shopping." pulling Sonny in the clothes direction. "First I want some clothes.

"Oh boy" Sonny muttered to himself.

An hour and thirty outfits later, they were finally headed out of the clothes section. Sonny had never seen anything like it, she was like a hurricane in there. They headed to the direction of furniture.

"Now to brighten up the place. " Carly dragged Sonny towards the house wares.

"You can touch anything but my kitchen" he stated, dead serious.

"Good cause I hate to cook. My specialties lie in frozen pizza and canned ravioli."

"Gross, how do you eat that stuff?" Sonny made a face.

"With a spoon and a bowl. Now come on let's get some furniture."

Carly found a whole living room suite she liked. Sonny had to admit it wasn't' bad except this ottoman she wanted. He didn't see a point in an ottoman, but oh well. As long as she's happy, he's happy.

"I won't change the bedroom either" she winked up at him. "I kind of liked those satin sheets."

"Mmmmm I like them too" he leaned down and kissed her, both losing any thought of the world around them.

Sonny was the first to break the kiss. "Let's get some lunch." he said pulling her towards the door.

"Lunch??? Jeez Sonny, you do like to eat don't you?"

"Yes."

"Where are we going?"

"Kelly's Diner, It's a little place down by the docs. Good people, good food, you ought to like it. I might even let you have a cheeseburger."

"Okay okay you talked me into it."

Five minutes later they were headed into the diner. Sonny went to pull her chair out, but realized Carly was frozen in place.

"Carly, baby, what's wrong?" he put his hands on her shoulders and shook her slightly.

"That's...that's... the woman in the picture" Sonny looked over to see who she was pointing it. It was Bobbie.
