(A/N) Someone asked why Sonny and Jason weren't trying to rescue the girls. I don't know if anyone remebers Ricardo, but he's tracking them down. There will be interaction with Ricardo in this chapter. Also I am SOOO sorry this chapter is so short but its been weeks and there has been nothing. So I have to give you guys something. I've complained of writer block before but I've just found out what REAL writers block is but I'm not going to complain about it because It'll probebly just get worse if I do. I apologize of the lack of updates also.

"But we can't do this again, Sonny." Carly continued, Sonny let out a frusterated sigh. "You said it yourself, we'll throw ourself into the same cycle of lies, betrayal, pain. Sonny, its just not worth it."

"Carly, why can't you-" Sonny started but got cut off.

"Sonny, do you even remember the pain?" Carly asked. "I know you remeber the betrayal. I mean for you its 'Never forgive or forget.'"

Sonny let out a scoffing snort and shook his head while Carly ranted on about his antics. He was getting ticked, patience running increadible thin. The woman was the most stubborn, selfish, spiteful thing he'd ever met, not to mention headstrong. And it made him love her even more.

"What do you want me to do, Carly?" Sonny snapped, interupting Carly in middle of a sentance. "What do I have to do to prove to you that I'm willing to forgive AND forget?"

Carly calmed down abruptibly, reviewing his words in her head. She had a once in a life time chance to either make Sonny's life hell or prove whether or not Sonny truely loved her, maybe both at the same time. She jolted out of her thoughts as she heard Courtney shift in her sleep and looked back to see tears stream down her best friends face. She knew why too.

"Fine." She said, a slight aura of satisfication in her voice. "I want you to forgive, Courtney.. and mean it." She heard Sonny let out a frusterated sigh. "Tell Jason the same thing, I'm sure he'll listen to you. Since you are the only person he seems to ever listen to."

"Alright, hand the phone over to Courtney." Sonny said shortly after Carly finished.

"Oh, I'm not done." Carly said, her mood rapidly changing from bad to good. "I want you to stop being Mr. Drug Lord. No more codes, no more me leaving the room, no more threats, or constant danger. I want you to leave it all behind or leave me.. and the boys behind."
The phone rang, tearing Jason out of his sleep. Without opening his eyes he felt around the night stand for the phone. He found it and picked it up off the reciver.

"Morgan." He said grogily.

"Mr. Morgan." a man said on the other end. "This is Ricardo, I have some good and bad news."

Jason opened his eyes and looked at the clock. It read 3:16 in the morning.

"Couldn't you have called Sonny?" Jason asked, upset that the man woke him from his sleep.

"I did." Ricardo said. "The phone line is busy."

"Fine," Jason growled. "Whats the news?"

"I've found the yacht," Ricardo informed. "Which means I've found your and Mr. Corinthos' wife."
Silence, utter silence. Sonny's face was scrunched up in thought. Wondering what to do, wondering why he hadn't seen it coming. Forgiving Courtney was one thing but his job? He made a respectable reputation in the drug world, made sacrafices, killed, became a wanted man. Would he give his hard work up for something that could dissapear. Life was fragile, not everything stays when you want it to.

"Alright." Sonny said. Carlys mouth dropped and eyes grew wide. "I'll sell the waterfronts as soon as the shipments due for today goes through. I'll set a meeting with the Five Families and seperate meetings with Faith and Lorenzo informing them of my retirment after we find you two and get you back home. Now can I talk to Courtney so I can call my point proven."

Carly was speechless, she couldn't move or breath for that matter. She was completly shocked, having expecting a harsh laugh from Sonny and a speech on how it just wasn't worth it. But she was wrong, she was wrong and she couldn't figure out how she could be. She had asked Sonny to give up his job many times, what made this time differant?

"Carly?" Sonny asked. "Are you still there?"

"Ya." Carly said, finally able to find her voice. "I'll wake Courtney up, hold on."

Carly walked over to Courtney and gently shook her till she opened her eyes. Courtney looked up at Carly.

"Whats going on?" Courtney asked as she yawned.

"Sonny wants to talk to you." Carly said quietly before handing the cellphone to Courtney.

Courtney hesisted before she held the phone up to her ear. "Hello?"

"Courtney. Hi." Sonny said, brotherly worry overcoming him. "Are you okay? Jason said you were in a coma. How did-"

"Sonny, please." Courtney interupted. "You should know me by now. I get out of all sorts of things without a scrape."

"That is true." Sonny smiled and Courtney giggled. Things turned to a more serious note when Sonny heard Carly clear her throught in the background. "Courtney, you know I-I was wrong to get angery at you, for-for calling the cops. You were just being the lawful woman you,uh, you should be. I just want to say-to say I'm sorry."

"You shouldn't apologize, Sonny," Courtney said before Sonny even finished. "I should."
Jason jolted up, he was fully awake now. He figured that was the good news, it was good news and it was even better that he found it so fast. But what he needed to know was the bad news. Ricardo figured that and he quickly went on to the worser part of it.

"They are nearest American city is Tulum, Quintana Roo, Mexico. The problem is we don't know is they are closer to Africa or America. The satalitte information couldn't tell us, so I suggest seeing if the women on the yacht could get it closer to America. Finding them would be easier and there would be less hastle." Ricardo said, rather politely.

"I can see why you charge so much." Jason muttered. "Thankyou, I'll pass the information to Sonny." With that he hung up.

----------------------------------

(A/N) Well, I told you it was going to be short.. and awfull. No there wasn't any Jason/Courtney interaction. I'll fit it into the next chapter, I'm for some odd reason obbessing over Sonny and Carly right now. All though I'm happy Sonny is going to give up his job in the story I don't want it to happen on the show. The show would lose alot of ZING! and POW! lol, it just wouldn't be as fun. Anyway, sorry for rambling and please review!! [P.S. Yes, Tulum IS a real city/town, I did my research :)]
