"Spring Flowers"
Part 8 ~ Island Bound
by Kimberly 12/30/08
Sam ignored her ringing cell phone as she
pulled her suitcase from the closet. Lucky had been trying to reach her for
days, but she just didn't have the courage to talk to him. What would she
say, especially now? Lucky had been so heartbroken when he found out that
Jason was Jake's father. Was she going to ask him to hang around while her
belly grew to nurture another man's child? Would he hate her for deciding to
keep Diego's baby? That was a question she knew she could answer. Not only
would he hate her, so would Nikolas, Alexis, and all of Port Charles. She
knew she was doing the right thing. There was only one person that could
understand what she was going through. Sam was hoping that he would be there
for her to lean on. Maybe he would find the strength to lean on her, and
they could support each other.
An hour later, Sam carried her suitcase to
the front door. She paused to watch Nikolas nap on the couch. She wanted to
say good-bye, but she knew this may be the first time he was asleep this
week.
"Going somewhere?" Nik asked, his eyes
remaining closed.
"I thought you were asleep?"
"Actually I was. I trained myself to sleep in
fifteen-minute intervals. Anything past fifteen minutes and the nightmares
begin."
Sam walked over to the couch, and as she sat
beside him, he opened his eyes.
"Oh, Nik. I really hope the doctors will be
able to give you something to help you sleep."
Nikolas smiled weakly but declined to tell
Sam about yesterday's visit with Lainey. Lainey insisted that someone from
his family attend the hypnosis session. He was going to ask Sam, but it
seems as if Sam has her own battles to fight.
"Were you going to leave without saying
goodbye?"
"You looked so peaceful." They both remained
silent for a few minutes, before Sam continued " I'm going to visit a
friend."
"Will you come back?"
"Hopefully, one day. But I will keep in
touch." Sam stood "Please tell Alexis and the girls that I'll call them when
my flight lands."
Nik nodded and then stood to make his way to
the door. "The least I could do is ride with you to the airport. "
"I'd like that."
It was a warm night on the island. Warm and
quiet. Not that Sonny should expect anything else. He had sent most of the
servants away. He couldn't stand the look of pity that they gave him. He
kept two maids, his cook, and his butler. There were days that he even
banned the physical therapist.
Sonny brought the glass of scotch to his lips
as he heard a knock on the terrace door.
"Yeah?" he barked.
"Sir, you have a visitor."
"Send them away."
"I would but the next boat isn't until
tomorrow afternoon."
"Too bad," Sonny said as he finished his
glass of scotch.
"Please, Sonny." Sam's voice cut through the
silence of the night. "Don't turn me away."
As Sonny turned his wheelchair towards the
terrace doors, Sam dropped her suitcase and walked towards him. "I need
you," she said, her voice trembling as her eyes filled with tears.
And I need to be needed, Sonny thought. As
she curled up in the chair beside him, she cried gently as he stroked her
hair. Had she lifted her head she would have noticed that Sonny was crying
too.
