"Look I know how much you care about Michael and I'll help you to see him." Ric said. He was genuine in what he had just said. "Sonny will never forgive me Ric, and I highly doubt he'd be intrested in hearing you side at the moment." she pointed out rather sternly. "You're right...you're right but we'll figure something out I promise." Reese sat down looking around at all the photo's some of her and Michael, some of morgan and michael, and some of her and Sonny. She hated he had found out the way he had but she couldn't turn back the hands of time now.
After a few hours of packing Reese had fallen asleep on the couch. It seemed to have been her first moment of serenity in what seemed like ages after her mother and Sonny. Ric didn't want to wake her so he placed a gentle kiss on her cheek, wrote a note, and left. His first instinct was to go to Sonny and explain their actions but Reese had pointed out some good reasons as to why he shouldn't. Atleast not at the moment anyway. It wasn't supposed to happen but it did and in the back of his mind he couldn't help to admit that maybe it wasn't as horrible as it was made out to be. Maybe it was supposed to happen for a reason. Besides don't they say that everything in life happens for a reason.
The next morning Reese was awaken by the ringing of her cell phone. Once she looked at the caller ID she picked it up immediately. "Michael...are you ok?" she asked concerned as she quickly sat up. "I'm fine...I don't want you to go Reese...me and my dad had an argument I don't want to stay here I want to be with you...or you to be with Dad." She could hear the desperation in his voice. "Michael I want to be with you but your dad isn't too thrilled with me at the moment." "He's not being fair! Please come and talk to him Please!" Michael begged much to the breaking of her heart. "Ok...ok Michael just calm down I'll come over as soon as I get ready ok..." "Ok Thanks Agent Marshall..." "You're welcome and Michael..." "Yeah?" he asked. "I Love you too..."
They hung up and she went to get ready. She grabbed the phone and called Liz. "Liz it's Reese...I'm stuck between a rock and a hard place and I don't see a way out..." "woah woah woah Reese calm down." Liz said trying to get Reese to catch a breath so she could understand her more clearly. Reese took a deep breath and exhaled. "I love Sonny I swear I Do Liz but the problem is...I-I-I Love Ric too..." "Reese Ric is a wonderful man however and don't take this the wrong way but Ric has his bad sides just as much as he has his good...his vendeta against Sonny may seem to be over but Ric will always have a deep hatred for him."
Reese looked around the room. "I have some thinking to do don't I?" she asked as she sighed. "I'd say you do...but you can do it I'm sure you can..." "Thanks Liz I better go I promised Michael I would come over to see him." "How is he by the way?" "He's making progress so far he's such a tough little boy...I love Michael and I don't want to loose him and not be able to keep up on his progress..." "Just do what your heart says is right...You'll be fine I know it..." Just then Cameron started crying. "Well thats my cue." she laughed "I better go." The two said their goodbyes for that evening and continued with what they had begun to do.
