Sonny watches the door to his hospital room close without regret. Now that he knows Will is going to spend the week-end with him, he feels ready to go back to his life, visit his coffee house (A week without him ? Chad must have cursed him...), see Abby again, wear something else than these d*mn hospital gowns ! Will pushes the wheelchair at full speed, slaloming around the hall's obstacles. He's stopped by a nurse Sonny has talked to often and joked a lot with. She gives Will a wearied, slightly relieved, look "Sir, could you not run in the hospital's hall, please ?" She turns to Sonny and smiles broadly "I wish you a speedy recovery. You've come back from so much. We'll miss you." She doesn't say anything else to Will and goes back on her route. As they reach the entrance, Sonny can't help asking "Will ? Did you get in trouble with this nurse ?" Will pushes the chair through the sliding doors then holds a gentleman's hand to Sonny, explaining " I didn't leave any of the nurse with found memories. Let's say it was a harsh fight and I might have crossed a few lines…" Sonny spots Justin in the parking, waving at them, and takes a few hesitant steps, leaning on Will's shoulder. "A fight for what ?" Will watches him with caring eyes and places a hand behind his back. Sonny sighs and proceeds slowly. He hears Will adding " It kinda tough to be allowed and stay at a patient's bedside when you're not family. I accepted staying away while you went through surgery but after that, I drove them up the wall until I could be near you. I wore them down. When you woke up, they had capitulated already. Your father's phone call helped, too…" Sonny stops dead in the driveway. He hadn't thought about that. He laughs softly and says " No way I can get rid of you, then, if even they couldn't. You're my symbiont!" Will shakes his eyebrows and answers " Absolutely, though we're not intertwined closely enough to merit the label…" just as they reach the car. Sonny sits, very uncomfortably, and casts Will a reproachful look. Will puts a hand on his thigh and whispers " I love it when you look at me like that, darling. You'll have to recover fast...".
Abby squishes him until he begins to suffocate. She whispers, pressed against his chest a small "Sorry" which takes him by surprise "Sorry about what ?" "Well, it's because of me you went through all that." Sonny catches Abby's arm and gently scolds her "Abby, it is by no mean you fault, whatsoever. Don't even think it. And, at least," he adds as he glances at Will who's crushed in Sami's arms, "It allowed me to, hum... deepen my connection with Will." Abby has a surprised and radiant grin " Well, well, cousin, you've been secretive!" "Not anymore" says Sonny as he sees Will walk up to him dragging his parents. He takes his hand and states "Sonny and I are together. I'll spend the week-end with him and after that you'll meet him often."
If Sonny hadn't noticed Lucas' fleeting look of dismay the last time, he would have missed it today. Lucas holds a solemn hand to him while Sami, eyes bright, proclaims "You've found an impressive way of entering the family, Sonny. Will told me you saved his life." Sonny answers "I beg your pardon ? If it wasn't for him, I wouldn't have made it!" Will interjects "And you weren't stabbed instead of me ?" Oh, yes, he forgot that. Protecting Will was a reflex. Sami gets teary "I'm really happy for the both of you. You're a good person, Sonny. Worthy of my Will." Sonny begins to feel embarrassed by all this attention. His mother steps out of the mansion and glares at Sami. Sonny thanks Sami and walks to the door. Just before it closes, he hears "Sami, Lucas, nice to see you two are back together. Let's hope, third time's the charm…" Sonny closes his eyes, mortified. He sighs "Will, my love, I hope you'll cope with my mom…"Will waits for him to open his eyes to say "After my mom's praise, I'm only worried about my dad. Our mother's feud is old as time. As long as it doesn't come to blows…" Sonny can't help laughing at the idea of both women bashing each other. He thanks Will by slightly squeezing his hand and begins walking up the stairs when he hears Will say, behind him "So, where's our room ?"
