Summary: What if Sonny had found out about the cheating the night it happened? Sonny makes a decision to not say anything because as much as it hurts he loves his husband. Will becomes the most devoted husband in the world but will it be enough for these two soul mates to stay together?

Note: Okay so there was a one shot story called Choices by imaginentertain that inspired this story, it has Sonny learning the truth and not doing anything about it. That story was great and I only take the idea that Sonny finds out otherwise everything else is different. Enjoy.


One

Sonny felt like his whole world was shattering around him in little pieces. He had been able to hold it together while talking to his ex but the minute he felt the fresh air on his face he let the tears fall. He had seen the shirt of Will's that he had gotten him months ago lying on the floor and the shower was running. Add in the fact that his husband had an assignment with Sonix that he couldn't talk about and everything made that much more sense. He didn't know what to do and his heart felt broken like it wouldn't recover but he knew that he did have to make a choice soon before this ate him up inside.

~Enough~

Sonny paced the living room floor hating that he had called her but she was the only one who could offer some type of advice that wasn't going to be completely biased. The knock at the door sounded and he hurried over opening it to reveal the concerned face of Marlena Evans. The brunette knew that his eyes were red and puffy from crying but he didn't care anymore because his heart was broken.

"Sonny what's wrong?" she asked concerned as she entered wondering where her grandson was but also focusing on the heartbroken look in Sonny's eyes.

"I need to talk to you," he said simply his voice hoarse revealing that he had been sobbing before her arrival.

"Where's Will?" she asked then saw the shattered look in Sonny's eyes and knew something had happened she just didn't know what yet.

"He's fine but it involves him," Sonny answered not wanting her to think that her grandson was dead or something but just hearing his name made him imagine all the things that him and Paul were doing together which made him that much more upset.

"Sit down and talk to me," Marlena ordered knowing that whatever was wrong had to do with her grandson which meant that he had to have caused it considering his recent behavior.

"I don't want to put you in an impossible decision and I know you are probably going to be biased but he messed up Marlena," Sonny told her putting his head in his hands crying, "He messed everything up and I don't know what to do."

"Sonny talk to me darling," she pushed with a sigh putting her arms around the man she considered a grandson since he was married to hers.

"I went to the hotel room of my ex to talk to him because I had been harsh with him before and I didn't want it to be like. I mean I don't love him but I still want him to be happy. I saw Will's clothes lying on the floor of the hotel room and the shower was going. He cheated Marlena and now I know exactly how Sami felt when EJ cheated on her with Abigail," Sonny admitted hating the way he was feeling.

Marlena shook her head disappointed in her grandson but she chose to focus on the man that was crying in her arms. She had thought that all the cheating and lies had ended with Sami but it seemed that her daughter must have done something to Will while he was in LA to make him do this. She could hear the heartbreak in Sonny's voice and the love he held for Will but also the betrayal he was feeling. Sonny was being put into an impossible situation. The brunette could choose to stay with Will and work things out or he could leave and cause so many other problems. She knew that the biggest factor was if Will would cheat again and as much as she loved her grandson she was not going to be the person to make Sonny stay if he wasn't happy. She already knew that if the truth came out that everybody in this town would push Sonny to stay with Will because it was only one mistake but she was not going to be one of those people.

"I can't tell you what to do Sonny and I know that my grandson loves you but I can't give you an answer. The only advice I can give you is to do what you think is best for you," she offered.

"And what if I choose to leave him?" the brunette asked looking up at her.

"Then that is your choice and I wouldn't blame you. I made so many mistakes in my life by being with Roman and cheating on him with John. I think that I have rubbed off on Sami in many ways. Sami though she always managed to take things too far and I say that with all the love I can manage. Will's childhood wasn't the best and I'm not trying to make excuses but maybe somewhere inside of him he feels like he is the one that isn't good enough for you so subconsciously he is pushing you away. Again this is not an excuse just me trying to speculate. My point is that if you want to leave Will then that is your choice but you also have to make a decision because it will not do anyone any good by being indecisive," Marlena advised him.

Sonny hugged Marlena closing his eyes as he took comfort in the woman and then bid her goodbye. He walked into his daughter's room and just stood watching her sleep. He wanted to be angry and just break down into a million pieces because everything hurt. Sonny wondered if it was possible not to love Will because if he didn't love his husband then this wouldn't hurt so badly. The brunette flashed back to the situation with Sami, EJ and Abigail and he finally understood Sami's position. He didn't necessarily forgive her for hurting Abigail so much but he also understood the deep gutting feeling in the pit of your stomach that you received after finding out that the one person you loved whole heartedly betrayed you. Sonny also thought about the way that Sami had been devastated when EJ died and he felt like maybe just maybe he had made a decision.

"I think I know what I am going to do I just want you to know that I love you Ari and I always will," Sonny whispered to his daughter.

He closed his eyes thinking about his life. Sonny knew that he could live without Paul, he had done it before and he could easily do it again. The brunette also knew that he couldn't live without Will. He had tried after being lied to and finding out about Gabi's pregnancy but barely succeeded. Sonny quickly went to his room not wanting to break down in front of his daughter so instead he broke down on his bed. He couldn't stop sobbing because every future he imagined even after knowing that Will had cheated included his husband. His heart was breaking but yet he knew that he couldn't live without his husband and so his choice was made but he just hoped it would be enough.


End Note: Okay so I want to warn all my readers that it will take some time for me to get my stories and works up. I have about five WilSon prompts all of which are multi-chaptered except one and so these will take some time to get up so I will not be excepting more prompts until they are all written and up. I also have a new job and I am working a lot of hours. This job unlike the one I had before requires a lot of standing and moving, there is not a second I don't sit down so I am also always tired. I just want to warn all of you that I will be slow on updates but I have not given up on WilSon or my other stories.
