A.N: Hey you guys…sorry it's been so long since I updated. I was gone on vacation…but here is my next chapter. I hope you all enjoy. Thanks for the reviews!

Sonny glanced from Courtney to Jason spreading a smile of confusion across his face.



"You got my baby sister pregnant?" He inquired as he pointed at Jason, still revealing his smile small, which made Jason speechless. However, Courtney grew agitated.



"Sonny, Jason and I want this baby, and if you don't accept it then that's fine. You don't have to be a part of its life. But there's nothing you can say or do that will change our mind; we want this child, and we're not asking for your permission." Courtney brawled as she took a step closer to Jason and wrapped her arm around his shoulder to signify to Sonny that he fought alone in his selfish battle. However, Sonny didn't fire up his last words of protest; he simply took a step closer to the parents-to-be and stuck out his right arm in acceptance.



"Congratulations." He finally spoke, and his lonely hand was quickly acquainted with an appreciative handshake with Jason. Jason slowly nodded his head at Sonny and released a tiny smile that appeared to be holding back an increased ecstatic emotion.



"What are you doing? Get over here!" Sonny demanded jokingly as he gripped Jason's hand tightly in his and drew him in for a quick congratulating hug.



"You two have made it through a lot, including me. I have to appreciate that." Sonny admitted as he released Jason and welcomed Courtney in his open arms, and Courtney happily accepted his invitation. Carly's face revealed nothing but pure ecstasy as she took advantage of Jason's open arms and quickly jumped into them.



"Jason, I'm so happy for you!" She exclaimed and held Jason tightly in her arms, as though hesitant to ever let go.



"Thanks, Carly." Jason whispered softly in her ear and slowly eased away from his entrapment within her locked arms. Once Sonny and Courtney separated, Carly released a wide grin at Courtney which spread contagiously to Courtney.



"Courtney!" Carly yelped enthusiastically as she leaped joyously towards her and held her, once again, tightly in her arms. "Our kids will be best friends! We're going to be pregnant buddies!" Carly stated as her face lit up brightly at the thought, and Courtney let out a laugh just imagining the idea. Just as the commotion began to die down, Sonny received a phone-call he wasn't expecting.



"Yeah," Sonny answered as he turned his attention clearly to Jason, which caused Carly and Courtney to do the same. "What is this?" He questioned with annoyance, then listened patiently for the callers reply. "We'll be right there." Sonny agreed and hung up the phone, still starring cautiously at Jason.



"Sonny who was it?" Carly asked as she walked quickly to Sonny's destination. "Jason, let's go." Sonny demanded, avoiding Carly's question, but simply adding, "Everything's fine. We'll be right back." Before Sonny allowed Carly the opportunity to argue he kissed her lightly on the forehead and headed towards the door, as Jason did the same.

"I'm sure they're okay. Probably just an emergency phone call they had to take care of. Don't worry." Carly stated reassuringly to Courtney as she sat herself comfortably on the couch and began furiously fiddling with her shaken hands.



"Are you trying to convince me, or yourself?" Courtney questioned and she caught sight of an open spot next to a worried Carly and quickly accompanied her. Carly looked blankly at Courtney and smiled as though she wanted to say something but couldn't put her overwhelming emotions into describable words. Finally she placed her hand friendly upon Courtney's lap.



"It's fine. Let's talk about you and your baby. Have you and Jason talked about possible names?" Carly asked enthusiastically, although obviously avoiding the where- abouts of Sonny and Jason. Courtney ignored Carly's intentions and just smiled at the thought of her pregnancy.



"We didn't get to names yet, but I think Jason is hoping for a boy." Courtney admitted and her eyes twinkled at the thought.



"And what about you," Carly inquired as she, too, released a warm smile similar to Courtney's.



"I don't know. I would love to have a boy, but I have always wanted a baby girl." Courtney admitted.



"Well, if at first you don't succeed, try try again." Carly joked as she released a little laugh, and Courtney quickly joined along with her. The women's laughter were suddenly silent by a loud noise outside the door. "What the- Johnny?" Carly screamed, but there was no answer. She rose instantly from her seat and headed towards the door. "Johnny?" She called out again, and still there was no reply. Carly slowly and cautiously opened the door leading to the hallway to find Johnny lying unconscious at her doorstep. Carly attempted to quickly close the door sensing that something was wrong, but failed when a foot was placed firmly in her way.



"Is something wrong?" A deep, cold voice asked. A voice that Carly quickly recognized, and sent chills running continuously throughout her body. Her strength was over-powered by him and the door was immediately open for an attainable entrance.



"What do you want?" Courtney questioned with narrowed eyes as she walked slowly next to a frightened Carly.



"Now is that any way to welcome your guest? Well, that's okay we have plenty of time to discuss proper manners." He spoke and he stuck his hand in his suit and drew out a loaded hand-gun.



"Let's go!" He demanded emotionlessly.



"Where," Carly asked as she took a horrified step backward, meeting Courtney shoulder to shoulder.



"LET'S GO!" He repeated with an overwhelming amount of force and aggression that made the two women jump and instantly raise their arms slightly over their heads.



"Okay," Carly finally agreed as she and Courtney headed fast-paced towards the door, as the man followed closely behind them, then slamming the door shut after their exit.
