(this chapter is in honor of Good Ole Sami and the spoilers that Sonny is going to get into it with Nick...(finally showing his true Kiriakis colors)

EJ still couldn't believe the lengths Samantha was willing to go through to get Will's daughter away from Nick, and to help Will out his legal problem. He was glad that Sonny had talked Will into talking to Justin and he was surprised that Justin had come to him to get his opinion on the matter, seeing as he was the victim and all.

Still EJ wanted to do more and if he could get that little prick to violate his parole in any way, it would be like a prayer answered. And he wondered to himself, if Sonny loved Will enough and if he was Kiriakis enough to get down and dirty? He thought about it and he came up with an idea.

He waited until Sonny was about to close up the coffee-shop for the day. He walked in and Sonny kinda raised his eyes to the heavens. He knew that look and EJ was up to something and Sonny happened to be in the "I'll play along mood".

EJ: Good evening Jackson, you still have hot water?

Sonny: Always, you want tea?

EJ: You know me so well, yes. Earl Grey with lemon and honey-since I see you have the condiments cleared away.

Sonny: not a problem. So you have obviously come here this late for a reason.

EJ: Yes. You are very perceptive. I need your help, for William's sake.

Sonny: I'll do anything for Will, you know that.

EJ: Well, I was having a conversation with William's Mother, about how to best deal with the little bastard, Nicolas and we need to do something before she hires out to have someone off him.

Sonny starts to laugh, handing EJ the cup of hot water, tea bag, and the condiments for his tea.

EJ: I'm very serious, Jackson. (he says pointedly) She wanted me to use my Dimera influence to find some way to get rid of him. But before you say anything, no-I won't be doing anything like that. And I know Victor wouldn't either, because of that dear sweet wife of his.

Sonny: Yeah, Uncle Vic has done shady stuff in the past, but not now. And so why do you need my help?

EJ: what if we could get his parole revoked?

Sonny smiled. That would hurt Nick and Gabi, all at the same time. Just as much as they have hurt Will. He loved idea. He loved it alot-infact.

Sonny: I'd be very willing to help with that. And after the conversation he had with Will the other day, I know how do get him very angry. I have a perfect idea.

EJ smile gets wider and wider as Sonny tells him of his idea and just nods in agreement. And they agree that the plan needs to be put in motion right away.

Sonny went into the Brady pub, he met Chad there-and this was apart of his plan. Chad was interested in why Sonny would have him meet him at the Brady pub of all places, seeing as both Gabi and that looser Nick, basically ran the place.

Chad: Why the hell are we here?

Sonny: Because you owe Will one and this will help, trust me.

Gabi came out of the kitchen with another tables order and eyed Sonny and Chad at a table in her section. She took a deep breath and strode over.

Gabi: Can I get you two a menu? (trying to stay calm)

Sonny: Wow-your working, I'd thought that Nick would have had you resting with your feet up.

Gabi: Nick isn't here right now and Mrs. Brady wasn't feeling good. It's only for an hour or so. Why are you so concerned?

Sonny: Well, since you are having my boyfriend's daughter, it makes me feel concerned, Gabi. I'd hate for anything to happen to either of you.

Gabi: Sonny, you don't like me, we both know it.

Sonny: I like you just fine Gabi, now that you, Nick and Will aren't lying to me. Oh wait-let's amend that, Nick is still lying, just not to me. Has he told you about any conversations he had with Will, lately?

Gabi: No, just that Sami won't be bothering me anymore.

Sonny: or Will. Haven't you found it odd, that Will hasn't been around in awhile? or that he hasn't asked about, his daughter? Think about it. And as for ordering-I want just a plate of fries, and diet cola.

Gabi: and you Chad?

Chad: Cola and fries, as well.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Gabi went into the kitchen to put in the order for two plates of fries and Nick came crashing into the kitchen. He looked distressed.

Nick: Why are those two out there?

Gabi: Nick they are paying customers. They can eat here if they like.

Nick: Why are you mad? You look mad.

Gabi: Did you say or do something to Will, when we had the baby scare?

Nick: (smiling and take aback by her question) um, no, why?

Gabi: It's just that he hasn't been by to talk to me in a while, about the baby or how I've been, since the scare. I was just wondering.

Nick: Maybe he just realized that I have you and her, well taken care of and he's back with Sonny now, so we both got what we want.

Gabi wasn't buying it. Something was up, and she needed to be sure. Eddie was coming in the back door for his shift and she smiled at him, telling him she was going out for some air.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Gabi found Will in the HTS, he was on a bench reading a book. He looked up when she stepped up to him and kicked his foot.

Will: Hey you. Are you ok?

Gabi: What is going on with you and Nick, Will?

Will: What do you mean?

Gabi: Well, since I was released from the hospital, you have acted really weird around me. You haven't been texting me back or asking about our daughter, not like before.

Will: Oh you mean, Nick didn't tell you?

Gabi: Tell me what?

Will: That answer's my question, I've got to run. I hope you and the bigot have a nice life.

He walked away, leaving her with questions floating around in her mind. She knew that Nick said that Will and his family wouldn't be trouble, but there was more to it that what he had said. She needed to talk to Nick, now.

When Gabi returned to the pub, Sonny and Chad were still there and she tried to avoid them, at all costs. But didn't seem like today was going to be her day.

Chad: So where have you been, Gabi? Out scheming again?

Gabi: No. I was out taking a walk and I ran into Will. So, Sonny do you know why Will...

Sonny: Oh, you mean basically, giving his rights up to his daughter? yeah, why don't you ask that homophobic boyfriend of yours. The ass should be able to tell you, himself. He should be man enough to do that. Since he was man enough to tell Will to his face that he didn't deserve to be a father, because he's gay and he is a horrible person because of it.

Gabi: He said all of that?

Sonny: Yes, Sweetie, he said all of that. (mocking her)

Nick over heard the conversation from the kitchen and came storming out of the kitchen.

Nick: Sonny you need to leave, now.

Sonny: Actually, I don't. Mrs. Brady told me, as long as I am with Will, I am welcome here always, anytime.

Nick: Since, Gabi is the Day Manager, and your hassling her, you need to go, Mrs. Brady isn't here.

Gabi: Nick, I'm fine. Just let Sonny be, ok?

Nick: No, Gabi. I don't think he should be here, bothering you. We finally got Will and his family to back off, now-what they're having the boyfriend run intel?

Sonny: Do you hear yourself Nick? You could barely say the word boyfriend, without choking on it. Say it with me, Nick. You are Homophobic. You are a bigot. You are a looser, claiming another man's child, just because you don't think, because he's gay, he won't be a good father.

Gabi is looking in horror between Nick and Sonny. What the hell was Sonny talking about? She had never heard any of this.

Nick: Get out now.

Sonny: No. Like I said, Mrs. Brady said I was always welcome here, so I will stay here, eat my food, enjoy the company of my business partner and finish my conversation.

Sonny sat back down and started to continue his conversation with Chad. He felt pretty good with that outburst, Nick was playing right into his hand. Nick went to the kitchen, and he stewed there for a few moments.

Gabi took Sonny and Chad's order out to them and they thanked her.

Chad: That guy is a loose cannon. He looked like he wanted to take off your head.

Sonny: That is what I am hoping and I hope it's today. (he said smiling before taking a bit of his fries)

Chad left around 30 minutes later and Sonny smiled when he saw Mrs. Brady enter the diningroom. She headed for his table and placed her hand on his shoulder.

Caroline: Hey there Handsome. I haven't seen you in a while.

Sonny: Been kinda busy, you know, work, school...

Caroline: My Great-Grandson. (she said smiling) I am really glad the two of you are back together, where you belong.

Sonny: (putting his hand on hers)Thank you. Yeah, it's defenatly where we both belong.

Caroline: So can you tell me, what he's doing about this baby? I hear things, people think I don't, because I'm old, but I hear.

Sonny: Mrs. Brady, if I told you-um, Will has just decided that it would be best if Gabi and Nick, raise her.

Caroline: Bull, I wasn't born yesterday. I see the way Nick looks at you and Will, when you two come in here. You want me to talk to him?

Sonny: No, Mrs. Brady, it wouldn't help. A bigot is a bigot, no matter, whose wise words fall on their ears and it would never penetrate in his heart.

Caroline: That's too bad. 'Cause I see the way you look at my great-grandson and it's love, the real deal. Just like I had with my Shawn.

Sonny thinks that is a great compliment. And he notices that Nick has been up at the bar, watching and most likely listening to the conversation. Good he thinks to himself. Good, Nick is playing right into his hand.

Sonny: Well, I need to go check on the coffee-shop, before I had back to my place, I'm meeting Will.

Caroline: Tell him I said Hello.

Sonny: Will do.

Caroline surprised him, when he stood up, she did the same and gave him a hug and kissed his cheek. He kinda blushed. He grabbed his coat and headed out of the door. He texted EJ that Nick had been at the pub and the plan was starting to work.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxx

Sonny made his way to the town square and just like he suspected, Nick had followed him. He turned around, just as Nick was coming up behind him.

Sonny: I figured you would follow me. What is it Nick?

Nick: You need to stay away from the pub.

Sonny: No, I don't, you saw with your own eyes, that Mrs. Brady and I are pretty tight. I'd hate to hurt her feelings.

Nick: you are just as big a pain in the ass as your boyfriend.

Sonny smiled and stepped up into Nick's face.

Sonny: And get used to it. You've earned this pain in the ass. They way you treated Will and the way you talked to me, like the other day at the hospital. You're lucky I didn't knock your teeth down your throat then.

Nick: Knock my teeth down my throat, nice. I'd love to see that.

Sonny: I'd never give you the satisfaction of the first punch, even if you deserve it.

Nick: No, it's just that you are a fairy and scared of defending yourself physically.

Sonny: Really, that why I decked T right here, in front of a crowd? So call me a fairy again, and see what happens.

Nick: You are really sick. You and your kind. You need to just go to hell where you belong-all of you.

Sonny got right up into Nick's face and pulled him by the shirt.

Sonny: You have your right to your opinion, but maybe, just maybe, you should think before you start spouting off. It amazes me, how someone so smart, is so ignorant...

Nick smiled and turned like he was going to walk away.

Sonny: That's right bigot, walk way. Keep on walking and never turn back, never come back. Leave Salem and let us live in peace.

Sonny kept on egging Nick on and finally Nick turned around and came back, getting into Sonny's face.

Nick: Sonny I think you should shut up now.

Sonny: Or what Nick? You sure you want to do this? I mean I'd hate for anyone who know's me and know's I'm gay to see us together, they might get the wrong idea about us. I mean, you are getting a little close. (he says smiling)

Nick: Shut your mouth, Kiriakis. Or I'll shut it for you.

Sonny: What don't want anyone to assume you are gay?

Nick: I'd never want anyone to think that, it is disgusting and I think that you and Will, along with the rest of the gay populus need to all burn in hell.

Sonny: Right alongside you, for what you're doing to Will, you bastard. You have no right to be doing what you're doing. You think you're being a savior to his little girl and you are so wrong. And let me tell you something, Nick, you may think it's bad for that little girl to be raised by a gay father, but is a murder a better father and what about a kidnapping, jealous, lying bitch of a mother?

Nick: what are you talking about?

Sonny: Unlike Sami, I really,do know about what Gabi did to Melanie last summer. And if you don't withdraw your potition with the courts to take away Will's parental rights, and hand over what ever evidence you have against Will-I will turn Gabi in, and don't think I won't. I have already called Melanie Jonas, and she is more than willing to testify, and press charges on Gabi.

Nick: She wouldn't, Gabi's due soon.

Sonny: Women have babies in prison all the time, Nick. It's sad that Gabi is looking like she might be headed down that road. But look on the bright side, you and her will look really good together in blaze orange prison suits-his and hers and maybe you can have conjugal visits. It will sure beat the jailhouse boyfriend-but I might like it. (he says nodding his head)

And with that last comment he got to make, because Nick's rage was front and center, and Nick slammed his fist into Sonny's face. Sonny felt blood and it never felt so good. Then Nick was on top of him and starting to pound him, when EJ came in right on que, with Roman Brady. They had been at a function at the twin's school. Roman got on his phone and dialed 911 for back up, they he got right in the middle of the fight and tried to break it up and EJ was more than happy to help.

Roman: What the hell is going on?

Neither Nick or Sonny would talk. EJ handed Sonny his handkerchief to stop the flow of blood coming from his mouth. He also had a cut above his left eye. A on looker, came up and looked like he wanted to talk to Roman.

Witness: That guy-(pointing to Nick) Just came up to Mr. Kiriakis and started yelling at him.

Roman: you know Mr. Kiriakis?

Witness: only from the coffee-shop, I'm a regular, every morning before I go to the hospital for work.

Roman: Did you hear anything that was said?

Witness: He was saying nasty stuff about him (pointing to Sonny) being gay and that it was wrong, then he looked like he was going to walk away, then came back and decked him.

Roman: Sonny are you ok?

Sonny: I think my nose maybe broken. I'd like to go get it looked at.

Roman: Sure. I've already called an ambulance. (turning to Nick) Nick, you know I have no choice but to take you in. You have violated your parole conditions. I have no choice but to call your parole officer.

Roman nodded to the officer and he started to read Nick his rights. Nick was more than angry. A week ago, Will had stopped the court-house wedding and now because of this gay-boy, he might be headed back to prison. And he would be unable to control the Gabi/baby/Will situation. He just hoped that, Will wouldn't move in on his family, while he sat in prision.

Sonny was at the coffee-house, when Will rushed in. He looked at Sonny's black eye and winced. He looked worse for wear, but Will was happy that Sonny protected him.

Will: So, how is my Knight in Shining Armor?

Sonny: sore. You want to go home?

Will: Yes and when we get there, behind closed doors, we can play Dr and patient.

Sonny tried to smile, through the pain. But if this helped Will, it would be so worth it.
