(Just a note, this story is unfinished, I went a head and added it due to a friends urging, I just wanted to warn you all in advance.)

This story picks up after the murder of Alkazar, it's late December 2002 a few days after Christmas… Sonny's been arrested for murder andis currently being held at the PCPD interrogation room.

This is a cross over story with one of my favorite Pine Valley Couples (AMC), just as un-conventinal as Sonny and Alexis are on GH.

Carly is not a heroine in my story, well truth be told she's never a heroine in my stories, but I will admit she is a fun character to write, but I still feel little love for her as a character.

And Away we go...

Sonny's sleep deprived eyes, glanced through the interrogation room window, well aware that his estranged wife was once again making a spectacle out of herself, he grimaced as Taggert looked his way, a slow cocky grin spreading across his face. Sonny took note of Carly's surprise when she was steered toward the room.

Taggert entered, his stance strong and smug, " Well, well, well Sonnyboy, I thought since you'll be walking the line to Pentonville soon, you might like some quality time with the Mrs. here."

"Why so generous?"

"Let me put it this way… come tomorrow the air and the streets will be a whole lot cleaner." Taggert replied, then looked over at Carly," I'll leave you two lovebirds alone."

Carly watched him until the door was firmly shut, and then whipped around with eyes blazing, "What's going on Sonny… who set you up?"

Sonny noted Carly wore an expression of annoyance rather than fear, he leaned back in his chair and spoke his voice void of emotion," As always Carly, you think you know more than you do."

"Then tell me why this is all happening… is this your way of protecting Brenda, she killed him and your covering for her?" Carly's eyes were accusing, and her voice dripped with venom," Cause, you know what she's got Jason and Jax for that!"

"Leave it alone Carly." Sonny waved a hand dismissively.

"Leave it alone? Tell me Sonny… Exactly how am I supposed to do that?" Carly shouted," My husband is willingly going to prison for his ex lover… what am I supposed to do, sit at home and wait for you?"

"I don't expect anything from you Carly," Sonny said matter-of-factly, " first of all our marriage is over, secondly the divorce papers were drawn up two months ago… or did you choose to forget that again Carly?"

"We'll never be over Sonny, we've always needed each other," Carly argued, " that will never change."

"What I need is to be alone," Sonny replied, then added, " I think if you take a long look Carly, you'll see that we never really needed each other… we used each other from the start and in the process we played with other people's feelings," Sonny took a breath, his eyes cast down on his hands that were now balled into fists, " we were so wrapped up in the games we were playing, that we forgot about the most important part of what brought us together."

"I don't get it…"

"No, I don't think you do and I wonder if you ever really will," Sonny shook his head and finally looked up at her, "Michael needs to be your main priority right now Carly."

Carly ignored him, even she knew he was right and if she really admitted it to herself she had known their marriage had been over before it ever began, what kind of love did they really have? The truth was they barely knew each other anymore, yes as always she wasn't about to let go so easily, she wasn't a quitter and she didn't like to lose, especially when she'd fought so dirty to get him back in the first place.

"Why isn't Jason here… shouldn't he be here?"

"He's looking into legal representation."

"Scotty's slinging your name through the mud and the media's eating it up," Carly said, looking down at her hands, " Jason's worked miracles in the past, but I don't even know if he's that good."

"Jason argued my case before and got me the best, I know he'll come through for me again."

Narrowing her eyes, Carly placed her hands on her hips, " Yeah, the best… that hag wouldn't help you if you were in burning building… in fact she'll probably help Scotty in his little scam to bring you down, I wouldn't put anything past that witch."

"Shut your mouth Carly!" Sonny shouted, slamming a fist against the metal table, which caused a few raise browns outside the interrogation room, reigning in his temper, his voice was a menacing whisper, "keep her out of it Carly, I better not hear that you've been harassing her."

Carly made a disgusted face, " your such a jerk! I'm standing here willing to help you out of this nightmare like I always have and your still protecting her, even though she turned her back on you!"

"You don't know what you're talking about."

"Oh, but I think I do, " Carly said shaking her head in amazement, " even before we were married the first time, she was already in your blood and you weren't even aware of it… but I was." Her eyes fixed on his; " I thought I could make you look at me with those eyes, those eyes that say so much… I worked so hard for it, but still I wasn't enough, I was never enough… because you want her, but you know you can't have her."

"Carly…"

Carly gave him a look, and leaned down, " I knew before either of you did… I knew back in April when I saw you two together that you'd finally reached out for what you always wanted… tell me was it worth it?" when he didn't reply she got angrier and was in his face, she cocked her head so she could meet his downcast eyes, and yelled," tell me was it worth it… would you do it all over again if you had the chance, well tell me Sonny… Tell me!"

"YES!" Sonny shouted, his eyes leveling into hers.

Carly pulled back, feeling as if she'd just been physically punched, " I thought so…that's why I did it… that's why I played dirty to get you back."

"I know."

"Nope Sonny, you don't know, " Carly smiling icily," you got the short version, my staying away to punish you." She paused before continuing, "but do you realize I faked it all, the car, the body, the DNA all so I could punish you… and punish Alexis, because I knew she wouldn't be able to handle the ramifications."

Sonny's eyes shot up, "You did that to Michael… to your Mother?"

"Did you hear me?" Carly asked raising her voice," I did it to get back at your and your precious Alexis."

"I heard you and you should be proud, you got your wish," Sonny's voice was cold," but what's worse is you don't even get the fact that your Mother and your son mourned your death."

"Damn you Sonny, don't you dare pass judgment on me… when you yourself did the same thing a couple of months ago."

"The difference is Carly I realize I was wrong… I regret what I put myfamily through."

"But I don't right?" Carly seethed," you think I don't have regrets for the actions I've taken?"

He shrugged and Carly raised her hands, " well, you'd be right again Sonny, I don't regret any of it, because I got what I wanted… you came back to me."

"Out of guilt, out of a sense of obligation, and for the love of our son and the little memories we had of better times… it only goes to show I was right all along."

"What's that Sonny?"

"You wouldn't know the truth if came up and knocked you in the head.
