Chapter 5: You Will Pay

Will's Pov

Over the next few days I made sure to avoid Derrick even more than usual. Even though Paul made me feel better about the whole thing I still didn't want him to see that it got to me. I know Paul wouldn't go back to Sonny but I can't help but feel insecure knowing that they once had a much more serious relationship than Paul and I have.

Anyway, I was on my over to the Kiriakis mansion to pick up Ari when my luck turned bad and Derrick spotted me in the Horton Square. I quickly changed directions but I knew that he would follow me and soon I was cornered.

"Hey Will, did you get my message? I didn't hear back from you so I wanted to make sure" He was smirking as he spoke and he never took his eyes off of me and it made me feel small.

"You need to stop this Derrick. Paul and I together and that's the way it's going to stay. We don't need you screwing things up"

"Am I screwing things up Will? Do you have trouble in paradise?" He questioned as he stalked towards me. I stepped back until I hit a tree and now I was really trapped.

"No, we are fine but we still don't want you trying to destroy our relationship" He reached his arms up and pinned me against the tree.

"If anyone is going to ruin your relationship Will, it's you. You ruined your marriage by sleeping with Paul and next you're going to ruin Paul by sleeping with someone else because you are a fucking whore for anyone who charms you. I bet with the right look I could get you under me in no time" He leaned closer and I tried to shrink back into the tree. Derrick's word were scaring me and I didn't like what he was implying.

"What do you think Will? Can I seduce you just like Paul did?" He leaned in even closer and right when I thought he was going to try something he was suddenly pulled away by Paul. He stood protectively infront of me and I grabbed the back of his shirt just so I could have some form of contact for reassurance.

"Leave Derrick and I don't want to see you around Will ever again" Paul sneered at him.

"I won't promise that Paul. I will get you no matter what I have to do" He said the last part looking at me and I got shivers. He walked away and Paul turned to me and checked me over.

"He didn't hurt you did he?" Paul asked as he grabbed both of my hands and laced our fingers together.

"I'm fine, just a little shaken. I didn't think that Derrick was so serious about getting you back"

"I think it's because he thought with Sonny back you two would work things out"

"He told you that?"

"No, that's what he told Sonny when he ran into him. Sonny also said that he seemed crazy"

"Well he has been since he found out and I don't want to think about what he has planned" Paul pulled me closer and I wrapped my arms around him.

"I'm not going to let Derrick hurt you Will" He promised.

"And I'm not going to let him take you away from me" I promised him.

"Good, now let's go pick up your little angel" We went on our way, refusing to let go of each other because of the threat still looming over us.

When we reached the mansion Arianna came running out the door and jumped into my arms. I spun her around and she laughed and I knew that would always be my favorite sound.

"Hi honey, did you have fun with Papa Sonny?" I asked her as we made our way inside where Sonny and John were sitting in the livingroom.

"Yes Daddy! Papa fun!" She exclaimed and I laughed, she was always so happy it warmed my heart.

"Will, can I talk to you for a minute?" John asked me and I had a feeling that I knew what he wanted to talk about. So I nodded and passed Ari back to Sonny and then left the room with Paul and John.

"Paul told about what happened with Derrick" I stated and the look on his face was all I needed.

"I want you safe Will" Paul told me.

"I knew that you would and I'm not going to stop you talking to your father about your worries. So now that you're involved what should we do John?"

"Well you could report it at the station but since he hasn't acted on his threats there is not much we can do" John explained.

"So what can you do Dad?" Paul asked and I could see him getting worried.

"The most we could do is talk to him and check up on him from time to time"

"That's all?"

"Paul, it's okay. Don't get mad at your dad for doing his job. Anything you can do is fine John. Right now I just want to forget about Derrick and take my daughter home" I left them in the hall and went to get Ari ready to go. By the time we were ready to leave Paul was done talking to his dad and we headed off.

When we reached the house I turned to Paul with worry because I noticed that the door was unlocked and opened slightly. I paused Ari to Paul and moved into the aparment carefully.

"Hello Will" a voice called from the couch and my blood ran cold. I turned around and there was Derrick sitting there with a gun!

"Paul take Arianna back and get your father" I told him without looking away from Derrick.

"I'm not leaving you alone with him Will"

"Paul please go! Please protect my daughter!" I yelled out and I heard movement by the door so I know that he left.

"It's so sweet that you would protect your daughter over yourself" Derrick commented as he moved the door and locked it behind Paul, right now it was just Derrick and I.

"That's what any parent would do. Now what are you doing here?"

"Because I had a thought Will: if I can't break you two up by causing trouble then I can make sure that Paul never wants you again" He charged forward and I ran over to the door but I only managed to get it unlocked before he grabbed me. We struggled and I tried to grab the gun from him but he pulled away.

Suddenly he swung with the gun hand and hit me in the head. I collapsed as a shooting pain spread. I could feel it bleeding as I passed out with Derrick looming over me.

My only thoughts were of Paul and Arianna.
