Thanks for the reviews you guys! They were sweet!:)
Chapter Two: Apologies&Regret
Courtney woke up to the sound of her annoying alarm clock. "Stupid thing" she moaned hitting the off button. "Eight O'clock. Well, Rosie, I guess I better head to work, shouldn't I?" Courtney said smiling at her Golden Retriever who was lying at the foot of her bed panting. "That's what I thought, Rosie" Courtney winked, making her bed.
Ring Ring.
"Hello?" Courtney answered putting her coat on, she had only spent an hour getting ready and preparing for another long boring day at her new Job. Courtney wanted to work, even though she had that generous $10Million awarded to her a few months ago, simply because she helped save a Rich Ladys' Dog's life. Courtney was still proud of that day and how she helped saved those people.
"Are you there, Courtney?" Carly asked waiting for her Best Friend to respond. "Are you daydreaming again Courts?"
"Oh-- hey Carly, No, I was just - -"
"Daydreaming" Carly laughed.
"Whats up girl?" Courtney smirked.
"Well, not to much, just bored stiff at the PH, I so need a job and I'm reading this letter I got from Lorenzo. Im surprised Sonny didnt get it first and throw it away" Carly laughed.
"Oh -- " Courtney answered a little curious as to what the note said.
"You probably don't want to hear it, but Im reading it to you anyway" Carly said.
"Oh, sure I mean, go ahead" Courtney casually answered.
"Dear Carly. Im sure you know who this is from, since i have tried sending you little gifts off and on. But dont worry, I am not sending it to try and win you over Sonny. This is simply a Good-Bye Letter. I do wish you the best, Carly. I am sincerely sorry for all of the pain I have caused. I guess you can call me selfish, I couldn't help the way I felt about you, and you had to pay that price, again I am deeply sorry. I wish the best for your children also, and that Sonny realizes what he has, and doesn't throw it all away. If you ever need a friend Carly, I will always be here for you. You will always have that place in my heart, but I cant promise that I will move on. I will stay out of your way, but I cant promise I will be out of Sonnys. Its business. I dont want you to worry if I will move on or not, you probably dont, which is okay, I dont ask of anything of you, except friendship in the future. If you dont want to speak to me again, I understand. I will always love you. Goodbye Mrs. Corthinthos.
Love always, Lorenzo"
Courtney was taken aback and silent for a while. 'Wow, he actually has a heart, pretty darn hard to believe' she thought.
"Carly are you okay?" Courtney asked, noticing that she was quiet after.
"Yeah, Im okay. I didn't love Lorenzo like he wanted me to, so there was no reason for him to go on thinking I did. I love Sonny and I always will, as for a friendship with him, I dont know. Time will tell" Carly said folding up the letter.
"Yeah, --" Courtney answered.
"Wow, no Lorenzo Bashing for Courtney today?" Carly laughed.
"Ha ha, very funny Carly. Im just trying to believe he has a heart that's all" Courtney said grabbing her keys.
"Yeah, I know. He has put us through hell especially you, but it's just time to move on, can't hold that grudge forever" Carly said.
"I know" Courtney said lowly, knowing what she meant. Courtney just couldn't let it go, right now. It would take time for her, but faster healing came to Carly, since she didn't lose a child because of Lorenzo.
"Well, let me let you go, girl. I know you have work. I will catch up with you later on" Carly said.
"Okay sounds great, thanks for the call, Carly. Talk to you later!" Courtney smiled hanging up. She sighed heavily, she was finding it incredibly odd, how she couldn't bash Lorenzo anymore. She used to talk about him day in and out to Carly, and to herself. What happened to all of this hatred for him? It scared Courtney, but also she felt a little better that day, she could feel some relief, and stress taken off from her. Maybe forgiving and forgetting was what she needed to do, and also see a Counselor after all these months.
She pulled out her cell phone and dialed her doctors number. "Hello is, -" Courtney started to say, but was interupted by an answering machine. "Hi, It's Courtney, Could you find out where I can find some good Counselors, Thanks. You can leave me a message on my cell if I dont answer" Courtney hung up and got into her Bmw Suv. "Well, its a start Courtney, maybe Carly will come too" She smiled backing up away from the loft. "Mr. Alcazar, Ms. Matthews isn't in her office yet, I will notify you right away when she is back in" Courtneys Secretary said.
"Okay, would it be too much to ask if I could wait in her office" Lorenzo asked nicely. The charm this man had, would melt anyone.
"Well, I dont usually do this, but sure, she should be here soon. Go right in" She said turning to go back to her desk. 'Daaaamn, he's hot'
Lorenzo smiled and proceeded to her office, he let him self in and sat on one of the leather couches. "Nice" He thought. "She's got taste"
"Stacey, Good morning, running late again" Courtney said, rushing in.
"Oh no rush, Ms. Matthews, you only have one client waiting" She answered.
"Oh, well, send them in"
"He's already in, I told him you would be right in, I hope you dont mind" 'I know I wouldn't' Stacey thought biting her pen.
"Oh.. No of course not, thanks Stacey" Courtney smiled turning the door knob to go in. 'Hmm, Stacey has a crush, haha' She giggled.
She imediately went straight to her desk before noticing Alcazar was standing on the other side of her office admiring the paintings on the wall.
"Hello, Ms. Matthews" Lorenzo greeted politely, returning to his seat. "Good to see that you are laughing".
Courtney practically dropped her lattee, when she heard his voice. "Oh great, of all people she lets you in" Courtney rolled her eyes. "What do you want?" Annoyed by the laughing remark also.
Lorenzo smiled as usual, always being so nice to her, even though she was a witch to him, almost everytime he saw her. He understood of course again.
"Well, aside from you not wanting me here, I needed to come. Its about business" Alcazar quickly pointed out.
"Of course" Courtney sarcastically remarked. "You want to buy my company, to overpower Sonny, correct?"
Lorenzo was speechless. Of course, with good reason, she had the right to think that's what he wanted to do. "Yeah, thats about it. Um Hmm, lets see, the answer Is 'NO'. Now get the hell out of my office and don't show up here again, or I will get security on you" Courtney angerily yelled.
And with that, Lorenzos smile faded, and he turned to leave.
'Ugh I could kick myself' Courtney told herself, 'Why do I always do this'
She sat in her chair and ran her fingers down her hair. She also wondered why on earth would he want her business if he and Carly were over.
Hi guys! Im so sorry this took so long, I was moving! Yeah Yeah, the big "M.O.V.E." But like I said, "Im soo sorry! This story will pick up quickly now, fingers crossed Again, thanks for all the reviews!!!:)
