The Oceanfront
Chapter 5
Flinching from the blow and the venom from her angry words directly aimed at him Sonny moves away from her knowing she had every right to feel the way she did. Hell he would hate him too if he were in her shoes.
Standing up from the chair he was sitting on Luke states "Lady I get you're upset and you have a right to be upset but this man did all he could do to save you. Now you took a gamble when you went behind Savage's back and lost but that doesn't give you the right to go off on Sonny."
"Luke shut up!" Sonny hisses out to him as he glances his way annoyed that Luke was interjecting into the situation
"YOU'RE saying this is MY FAULT?!" Carly screams out as tears pour down her cheeks
"No it's mine!" Sonny states as he shoots Luke a murderous look for opening his back fat mouth when he did.
"I want to get out of here" Carly softly states not wanting to be around them or see their faces again.
"I'll arrange for my men to take you anywhere you like" Sonny comments as he shoves Luke towards the doorway. "Let's go" he orders out to Luke needing to get away from her. Knowing the sooner he forgot about her the better off he would be.
As Sonny shuts the door behind them Carly sobs out uncontrollably as she glances towards the celling she cries out "I'm so sorry daddy" knowing that the man who saved her life that Sonny called Luke was right in a way. If it hadn't been for her stupid plan her father would be alive.
As Sonny shuts the door behind him Luke questions back "You're just going to let her get away with that? Come on man where are your balls at? She was out of line to hit you the way she did and "
Interrupting him Sonny states "She just found out her father died because of me Luke! She almost died because of ME she has every right to want nothing to do with me. Hell if I was her I would be out for my blood!"
As Sonny takes off towards the living room after his rant Luke follows behind him
as he points out "You did the best you could and-"
"And it wasn't enough! I failed her and she has every right to hate me for the rest of her life. Now just leave it the fuck alone!" Sonny shouts out wishing Luke would just drop the subject already. All he wanted right now was to forget everything about her; knowing that there was no place for her or any other woman for that matter in his life because of the life he lead. It was the price he had to pay to have the power and money he had.
A little while later Carly laid in the back of one of Sonny's limo's that drove her away from the safe house. It was a place she never wanted to see again much like the house she used to call a home. When Sonny's driver asked her where she wanted him to take her she gave him an address of the only friend she really had.
As the view of the safe house slowly disappears out of sight her heart felt like it was shattering into
a million pieces. Her leg was killing her but the pain of her bullet wound was nothing compared to the pain of knowing she was partly responsible for the death of her father.
As darkness fell upon them Luke watches as his friend stared aimlessly out of the window with yet another drink in his hand. He was a heavy drinker himself but clearly his partner could out drink him anytime. Ever since his men had informed him that Carly was dropped off safety at a friend's house Sonny had shut the rest of the world around him off. He knew his friend was heading for one of his famous breakdowns and sadly the only person who knew how to deal with Sonny when he got this way was out on a man hunt to find the bastard who had betrayed Sonny.
"Is there a reason why you're watching me?! I don't need a fucking babysitter Luke!" Sonny snaps out without even gazing in his direction
"It's getting late man I was thinking maybe you would want to eat something since you haven't eaten a thing since she left"
"I'm not hungry and I sure as hell wouldn't let you cook for me anyways" Sonny
mumbles out since he wouldn't let Luke cook a damn thing; safe house or not the man was a hazard in the kitchen
"Is there anything I could do for you?" Luke sighs out heavily hating to see him in pain over her.
"Yeah you can leave me alone"
"Alright man. I'll give you some space" Luke utters out knowing that Sonny would direct his anger and pain towards him if he didn't back off.
As Luke leaves the room he silently hopes that Jason comes back soon.
Hearing Luke walk away Sonny chugs down his drink before angrily turning around, and flinging the
glass across the room. Watching the glass shatter into pieces Sonny falls to the floor as a tear falls down his right cheek.
After locating the bastard a few miles out of town Jason had tied the bastard up and tossed him into the trunk of the car he was driving instead of his motorcycle. Before stuffing him inside the back of the trunk he of course took some pleasure in roughing him up a little but held back a little for Sonny's sake. Sonny may have not got the opportunity to get rid of Savage liked he planned but at least he could get his revenge out on the man who betrayed him and almost cost Carly her life.
Opening the door he could hear Gary kicking the inside of the trunk and shakes his head before heading towards the porch to tell Sonny he had found Gary like he promised him he would.
As he walks inside the safe house he notices the living room was dark. Flipping on the light switch he
gazes at the damaged that Sonny had left behind. The place was trashed the glassware of the mini bar was completely destroyed which meant that Sonny had fallen into the darkness that often called for him.
"Did you find that piece of shit?" Sonny questions as he walks up behind him clutching a bottle of Whisky in his hand.
Turning around he glances at Sonny. He could smell the alcohol off his body as his clothes looked
disheveled. He looked like hell which was how he knew his best friend felt. With a nod of his head he states "I did."
"Good. Take him down to the basement." Sonny grins out devilishly, planning on taking his sweet time and make that bastard pay for crossing him.
As Sonny walks away from him Luke shows up from one of the empty rooms as he states "It's about time you got back here man. Sonny isn't in a good place"
"I know" Jason simply states before heading out to get Gary and bring him down to the basement where Sonny could hopefully get out all his anger and hurt out, out on him.
A month later Jason Morgan stands before the door where their doctor had informed him where Carly
was staying at since their doctor continued to treat her leg since they didn't want to tip off the cops that Carly had been shot. Carly had agreed thankfully to let their doctor treat her but she had refused the money Sonny had his men offer her while they were in Port Charles.
The moment he opens the door and sees Jason Morgan AKA hit man for the mob he pees in his pants as he states "I didn't do anything I swear! Please don't kill me! I'm too young to die!"
Glancing at the pee stain that was in his slacks then at the puddle of pee that was on the floor
Jason lets out a heavy sigh as he states "Relax I'm not here to see you or hurt anyone" before stepping around the puddle of pee that was on the floor and inside the apartment.
Frowning he shuts the door before turning his gaze on the hit man that just entered his apartment like he had every right to be there.
"Carly lives here right?" Jason asks
"Yeah she lives here. But I swear we're just friends and roommates!" he utters not wanting a hit man for the mob to think he was dating his girl. Although he silently wonders why Carly didn't bother to bring up the fact she was seeing a hit man. If she had given him a heads up he wouldn't have just peed in
his pants
"That's good, so where is she?" Jason questions since he wanted to offer her money that he was sure she would refuse since she refused offers from Sonny's men before. He was only here because Sonny insisted that he stop by Carly's place in a last effort to get her to take some money since he knew with Frank officially announced "missing" by the Florida police department Carly was left with no inheritance from Frank's life insurance.
"She should be back soon. She said she had a crispy cream carving. You could wait for here if you want. I'm just going to change my pants and then grab a mop to clean up the floor" he explains before leaving Jason alone in the living room.
After Carly's roommate finished cleaning up the pee from off the floor and was now placing back the mop and bucket back in the small storage closet Jason asks "Shouldn't she be here by now?"
"Well you know chicks they're never leave or get back on time" he laughs out uncomfortably silently wishing Carly would get back already. He had tried to call her on her cell phone but she had for some reason shut her phone off.
Pointing towards a nearby door Jason asks "Is that the washroom?"
"Yeah. Why?"
"Well most people use a toilet to relieve themselves" Jason explains
"Rightttttttttttttttt" he laughs out nervously before pointing towards the washroom door and telling
him "Go ahead man. Make yourself at home"
As Jason enters the bathroom and shuts the door behind him much to his relief Carly opens the
apartment door and walks in using the cane Sonny's doctor had provided for her "Where have you been?!"
"I went to get doughnuts. What's your problem?" Carly questions confused as she flashes him the box of doughnuts she had in her free hand.
"What's my problem?!" he harshly whispers out
"Yeah. What's wrong with you?" Carly asks as she makes her way towards the coffee table
"Oh I don't know maybe because there is a hired gun inside our washroom waiting for you"
"What?!" Carly asks confused as the washroom door opens as Jason walks out. Seeing
him Carly eyes turn cold as she orders out in a harsh tone of voice "Get the hell out of my apartment"
"I'm not here to fight with you. Sonny just wanted me to offer you some money to help pay for your bills that's all" Jason explains
"Like I told his goons before I don't want his money or anything else from him."
"She works for my dad"
"Lenny shut up!" Carly hisses out to her friend and roommate since it wasn't Sonny's or Jason's business how she made a living for herself.
"You may not have a choice in the matter" Jason comments after what he discovered in the trashcan of the washroom.
"Excuse me?!" Carly asks back as Lenny watches in amazement at how Carly stood up to Jason Morgan; completely fearless.
"The pregnancy test in the trashcan it's yours right?" Jason asks knowing that Sonny and Carly did have sex last month since Sonny had let it slip while he was drunk one night.
"You're pregnant?! Oh man your life is soooooooooo OVER girl. Now all you have to look forward to is smelly diapers and baby drool all over your clothes" Lenny pipes in
"Well that's a shame to hear Lenny because that pregnancy test isn't mine it belonged to that redhead you've been seeing that came over last night" Carly states
"WHAT?! You're telling me Jenny is pregnant?! What the hell! I put a glove on! WHY is
this happening to me?! My life is OVER! This can't be happening to me! I'm not old enough to be a father! Hell I still go to my dad for money!" Lenny rants out as he starts to pace the room nervously
"Hey cheer up Lenny many she's a slut and the kid won't be yours after all" Carly comments as Lenny looked like he was going to puke.
"You think she could be a slut?" Lenny asks back as Jason just stands there and looks at them
"Sure" Carly smiles before glancing towards Jason with a scowl across her face "I'm not pregnant so you can go ahead and leave now or I could call the cops and have you arrested for trespassing."
"I have nothing else to say" Jason states as he walks towards the front door.
As Jason opens the door Carly calls out to him "And one more thing Jason tell Sonny this better be the last visit I get from you or anyone else who works for him because the next time one of you do show up here I'll have you arrested."
"I'll give him your message" Jason mumbles out before opening the door and walking out of the apartment.
As the door shuts behind him, Carly glances at Lenny who looked sickly at the thought of being a daddy "Relax Lenny the pregnancy test was mine"
"What?! Are you crazy?! Why the hell would you put me through that?!" Lenny asks back
"I'm sorry I had no choice I had to convince Jason that I wasn't pregnant with Sonny Corinthos's baby; which I did by getting you to freak out over the fact your girlfriend was pregnant" Carly explains
"Yeah well you may have convinced him for now but sooner or later you're going to start showing and if he finds out-"
"I'll say I got pregnant by someone else if he happens to find out I'm pregnant which he won't and I'll just lie about the due date" Carly comments interrupting him
"Look I'll support you with whatever you want but I'm telling you right now you better not say the kid is mine. I can't handle that kind of pressure" Lenny comments as he watches Carly plop herself down on the couch
"Relax I'll just say I had a one night stand with a stranger and I'm going to raise this kid on my own because there is no way in hell I'm EVER going to allow Sonny around my kid. Not after what he's done" Carly comments since she wouldn't trust him around a goldfish let alone her child after he got her father killed.
As Lenny sits down beside her on the couch Carly goes on to say "Besides Jason left here convinced that I wasn't pregnant so there is nothing to worry about. Sonny will move on with his life unaware I'm pregnant and I will figure out a way to support myself and my child"
"I don't know anything about babies but I'll help you out anyway that I can." Lenny states
"Thanks" Carly utters out with a smile across her face
"And what I said about your life being over I guess I exaggerated. Maybe having a baby won't ruin your life and you know babies are kind of cute when they are not drooling or puking all over your clothes"
"Yeah" Carly whispers out although she wasn't sure if she could pull this off or not. She just knew that she could get rid of this baby because this baby was the only family she had.
Sonny was back in Florida staying in a hotel in front of the Ocean front. After Gary died a very
painful death for betraying him Sonny had left Florida; hoping that being in Port Charles it would help him forget about the blonde who had saved his life. Of course the distance didn't make him forget nor did the nights he spent dreaming about her then waking up to an empty bed without her bedside him. He
had tried to sleep with other women in hopes to forget her but not even that had help; if anything it just made him miss her more because he didn't feel the connection he felt with those women that he felt with Carly. He had also tried to distract himself with business but that didn't work either. He had dealt
with the drug problem Luke was having at Luke's upon his return to Port Charles but to his dismay Sorel was still breathing because Taggert and the rest of the PCPD was watching him like a hawk ever since they got word that there was a mob war heating up between him and Sorel because of the drug dealers who ended up dead that worked for Sorel.
Glancing towards the doorway as his hotel room door opens and Jason walks in Sonny rushes towards
him as he demands "So did you offer her the money"
"I offered her the money and she refused to take it just like we both thought she would but hey at least you tried." Jason states as he shuts the door behind him
Letting out a heavy sigh, Sonny asks "I know the doc said Carly was healing fine but how did she look?"
"She looked pregnant" Jason simply states
