Chapter Six: Truth
The room was quiet, no one knew what to say or what to do. Everyone froze when those words came out of Sonny's mouth.
I'm your father, son.
"Get out, Sonny." Dante said practically burning a hole right through him. "Your lies aren't going to save you from prison, it's done."
"He's not lying, Dante." Olivia spoke up.
"Out!" Dante yelled.
Sonny shoved his hands in his pocket and walked out the way he came. Jason and Sam followed closely behind to get the details about what just happened.
Carly motioned for Lulu to call her later and then disappeared too.
"Dante, I'm-" Olivia started, but he interrupted her.
"You can go too."
"Dante." She said whipping her tears.
"Go. Just go." He said not even looking at her.
Lulu watched as Olivia walked out of the door. Everything that happened still hadn't registered in her brain yet.
"I can't believe this." He sighed. "Do you think their lying?"
She honestly didn't know. Why would they lie about this, it didn't make any sense.
"I don't know." She said letting his arms fall back around her.
"Me either."
"Sonny, what the hell's going on?" Jason asked catching up with him.
"He's my son, Jason." Sonny looked hurt. "I shot my son, mine and Olivia's son."
"I think you need to get out of town."
Sonny shook his head. "Nah, can't do that."
"If we don't do something, your going to go to jail for a long time." Sam pointed out.
"She's right, Sonny."
"I don't care, I deserve to go to jail." The elevator doors opened and he stepped into it leaving a frustrated Jason and Sam behind.
Carly sat behind Olivia in one of the pews in the hospital chapel.
"Hey." Carly said quietly.
"I thought you would be giving me the silent treatment."
"For trying to keep your son safe?" Carly raised her eyebrow. "I would do anything for Michael and Morgan."
"I tried to tell him, Carly. I tried to get him off this case because I knew something bad was going to happen."
"And because Dante is Sonny's son."
"Yeah."
"He'll come around." Carly assured her. "It'll take time, but he'll see you were trying to protect him form this life."
"I'm not so sure."
"He's a good guy, Olivia. You did that, by yourself because you didn't want him mixed up in the violent world that Sonny lives in. I promise, he will see that."
It was late, visiting hours were over and everyone had gone home, but still in the silence Dante couldn't sleep. He kept staring at the hospital wall, thinking about everything.
He mostly thought about Lulu. How she stuck beside him and defended him through the Sonny bust. This whole thing was a huge mess, but Lulu was his ray of light in it all, his thing to look forward to and he couldn't help but think that they had a chance at happiness.
He thought about Sonny too, the coldness in his eyes and the anger on his face when he shot him. Dante didn't want to believe that his father was Sonny Corinthos or that his mother had been lying all his life, but it could possibly be true. Without a paternity test he wouldn't believe it, and even if the results came back not in his favor, he still didn't want anything to do with Sonny.
Hopefully Sonny will be in prison after his trail and he would be out of his life forever. His mother would be distraught about Sonny's sentence, but right now Dante didn't care one bit, he was just as mad at his mother as he was Sonny.
Dante closed his eyes and thought back to his room at Kelly's, the night after the opera, he remembered holding Lulu in his arms and wished he could go back to that night. A month ago.
Lulu walked into her apartment, it was late and even though Dante had told her to go home and that he would be fine, she was contemplating going back.
She mainly wanted to go back, just to forget. When she was with Dante her problems melted away, and for a few hours she didn't think about anything but him.
Sitting her purse on the table, Lulu felt dizzy, she pulled out the chair and sat in it for a minute. After a couple of minutes, she felt better and told herself that she was just tired, but she knew that wasn't the case.
Laying down in her bed she felt like crying, but stopped herself because Maxie would defiantly hear and question her in the morning.
She stared at the ceiling, think about her future and more importantly her and Dante's future.
Not being able to handle the uncertainty of it, Lulu threw her covers back and walked into her bathroom. She fished around her cabinet until she found what she was looking for.
The box said three minutes, but it seemed like three hours to Lulu, who was pacing waiting for the timer to go off.
The timer beeped and for a second Lulu hesitated to look, but she finally got the courage and picked up the stick.
Uncontrollable tears started to roll down her cheeks when she saw the two lines.
This can't be happening. Lulu thought to herself. She couldn't be pregnant with everything that was going on right now.
She looked down at the two lines again. She wiped her eyes, crawled back into her bed and cried herself to sleep for the second time that week.
