Chapter 3

The next morning Liz awoke and went to check on Sonny. She walked into the room and Sonny was standing there, shirtless, looking out the window. At first Liz had to catch her breath, because she had never seen Sonny so vulnerable and so attractive at the same time. She said, "Glad to see that your out of bed." He suddenly turned and saw her angel like face. He was caught off guard, but he smiled and said, "Yeah." She said that she was going to go get him some breakfast and asked him what he wanted. Sonny, just said, that he wanted coffee. She said okay, "I'll be back soon." Before she walked out the door, Sonny walked over to her and said, "Elizabeth, I know you want to know what happened and why I'm here, but I can't talk about it right now." Liz nodded and said, "All I want to know is are you okay?" Sonny said, "I'm going to be, thanks to you." With that Elizabeth left and went to Kelly's.

As she was on her way there, she couldn't help but think of what happened to Sonny and why he couldn't talk about it. She thought, what could have gone so wrong? Why did he come to her, and not Jason, Carly or Courtney? As her mind wondered, she ran into Courtney outside of Kelly's. Courtney was talking to Mike, and she didn't interrupt, but she heard some of their conversation.

"Where is your brother, Courtney?" "I don't know Dad." "The last time I saw Sonny was yesterday." He and Carly got into a huge fight, and I left. "Well where's Jason?" I don't know. "He left last night, and said he had to take care of some business." That's the last time I saw him." Finally, Liz got the coffee and left. When she got back to her studio, Sonny was looking at her art work.. He had never noticed how beautiful Liz's work was until today. " He said, are you going to put this in your gallery at the opening?" "She said no, that piece was special and it wasn't for everyone." Sonny said he was sorry for invading her privacy, and she said it was okay that he saw it." She needed someone's opinion. For 10 minutes they sat together without saying a word, then Liz just couldn't take it anymore. "You know your Dad's looking for you." He is, Sonny seemed surprised." Yeah, I overheard him and Courtney talking at Kelly's and she said that she hadn't seen you since yesterday, and that you and Carly got into a fight." At that moment, Sonny got up and walked over to the window again. "Is that all she said?" Liz said, " No, actually Mike was looking for Jason also." Courtney said that he left to take care of some business and she hadn't seen him since. " That's all I heard." Sonny, I'm sorry, but please tell me what is going on!" With that, Sonny was startled by the tone of Liz's voice and he turned around and said okay, but you're not going to like it." Elizabeth's face turned from confused to worried."

Sonny couldn't bring himself to talk about it, but he knew he owed Elizabeth an explanation. He just put it out there. " Jason and Carly are having an affair." Elizabeth just froze. She couldn't believe that she just heard that. "Are you sure?" How do you know? " I walked in on them at the penthouse while they were making love." That's why I and Carly were fighting. I'm pretty sure the affair has been going on for some time. "Oh my God, Sonny, I am so sorry." I can't believe that Jason would do that to you." Well you know, I did that to him, when he was with Carly. It's different now though Sonny. Carly made her choice to be with you, and you're married now. I know, I know, but it didn't stop either of them. Does Courtney know? "I don't think she has a clue, and I don't want her to get hurt." Okay, so they've been going behind your back, but how did you get stabbed?" Who did it? Jason did it. Elizabeth's eyes were full of tears when she heard that. She was beginning to cry.

"Jason stabbed you Sonny?" Yes, last night we were on the docks talking about Carly and we were fighting and he pulled out his knife and swore I wouldn't win this war, and I grabbed the knife and it stabbed me." Elizabeth was in shock.. She couldn't move or talk. Elizabeth, Elizabeth, are you alright? Sonny how could he and Carly do this to you? I don't know, but this isn't the end of it. How do you feel about Carly now? Do you still love her? I can't answer that question. She betrayed me and so did Jason. I'm sorry I bothered you Elizabeth, but I didn't know where else to go. It's alright Sonny. You can always come to me. I mean you have helped me so much in the past, I owe you. You don't owe me anything Liz. It's always been my pleasure. When Sonny said that, Liz just looked at him and smiled.

That night, Elizabeth was so angry. Angry that Jason had slept with Carly, angry that she felt like she had been betrayed also, by Jason. But most of all she was angry at the fact that Sonny was in so much pain. She couldn't believe what had been done to him. Cheated on by his best friend and his wife. Then stabbed by his so called best friend. What the hell was going on? Why was Sonny the one who always had to feel the pain? Elizabeth, couldn't take it. She couldn't bare to see the hurt in Sonny's eyes. It was destroying him. She was going to help him though. She was going to make that skank Carly, and Jason pay. How could she have ever felt anything for him. What a monster he was. She was going to make Sonny feel good again, and regain his power. Wait, why did she care if Jason and Carly were having an affair. Jason and she were over and that was Sonny's business, not hers. Could it be that she was thinking too much about this. Why couldn't she get Sonny off her mind?

There you go folks! I will update more, when I can!
