Shot Down

In Sonny Office

I looked at Sonny, he didn't look like the old Sonny that I once knew and loved. This Sonny was tired and mean, stressed and probably even depressed and it killed me seeing my best friend like this. "Sonny whatever you need I'm here for you." I placed my hand on top of his hand.

"I know you are Red, I feel like you're the only one I can trust." I smiled "I don't know what it is but I know that I don't ever have to question your loyalty."Sonny squeezes my hand and for once I felt that tingly feeling in my stomach that I used to get when we were younger.

"How are you?" Sonny raised his eyebrow and sat back in his seat, thinking for a few.

"I've been better and I'll be a lot better once I catch that rat bastard!" He beamed and slammed his fist on his desk.

"What are we going to do about Ashley? I mean you won't keep her here knowing what I told you right?" I asked concerned.

He wiggle his pointing finger in a "no" position before talking "Ya see, I want her closer. I'm a keep a good eye on her....can't believe that bitch! I've been sleeping with the enemy." His time getting harsher with every word "How can I be so stupid? Shit!" He rubbed his face.

"Where did she even come from?" I never heard the back story of the two meeting and I was really curious about it. Sonny barely talked about her and I never seen the two show any affection towards each other, I didn't feel the spark or love. "It was arraigned. She was a family friend, her father was also in the mob but died.....I never met her into I was 21 and since then we've been together." I nodded my head.

"I see, no wonder why I don't feel the love." Sonny glared at me, all of sudden I started to feel nervous.

"How you feel with Lucas? How is that by the way?" He smirked.

"Lucas and I? We're good, I don't know how official we are but things are good." I explained.

"Do you love him?" He asked cold

"Love? I don't know how to love Sonny, I'm not a girl who falls in love..." He started but Sonny cut me off. "Why aren't you? You were when we were younger."

"Sonny  a lot has happened and changed, years have passed and I'm not the same old little Red." I started to get defensive.

"What could have possibly happened to you?" Sonny chuckled.

This time I glared at him, "A lot! While you were gone and left for years, without a trace a lot has happened! Where were you? Sonny I needed you and you weren't there!" Tears slipped out my eye.

"I was busy running a god damn business! I didn't have time to focus on my past I had to keep moving forward." We were both shouting at this moment now, "I had no choice but to keep going, money don't stop and wait for anyone."

I crossed my arm and looked away "What happened that night Sonny? The night of the party?"

"Oh so you think I want to talk about the night my father died?" He spoke with attitude.

"Your father died that night?" I looked at him with sadness in my eye, not knowing that information. I felt bad and like an asshole "I'm sorry I didn't know." I got up and made my way over to him.

"I don't talk about it....that night I felt like I lost everything." I kneeled down in front of him. "He died in my arms....my mom lost her mind afterwards and then I lost you." I looked into his light brown eyes, they were a bit watery but he wasn't about to let a tear slip.

"I'm so sorry Sonny."

The room was silent, no one knew what to say next. "I was raped and beating by my ex boyfriend....in LA I met some in college." I stopped talking, feeling myself choked up, Sonny grabbed my face to turn me to face his.

"Why haven't you ever told me about this?" Sonny looked really hurt.

"You were gone and busy." I spoke softly.

"Lucas said that you were a virgin...." I rolled my eyes, pissed that Lucas told Sonny that.

"I didn't give my virginity away so I still feel like I'm a virgin." Again, the room was silent. Sonny pulled me up and sitting me on his lap, we stared at each other for few without saying anything. Then as on cue, we both kissed, it was a long passionate kiss that lasted longer than I was expecting. The kiss started getting heated, Sonny started to take off my shirt and followed by taking his off. I startled his lap and he ran his fingers through my hair. He moved down from my lips to my chin to my neck then to my breast, I moaned with every kiss he planted on me. Kissing Sonny made me explode with a lot of emotions, I felt so safe and kiss with no worries in the world or what was happening next.

Our make out session ended with a knock on the door. Making us both jump, I jumped off Sonny and started to dress. "Who is it?" Sonny yelled fixing himself.

"Boss it's an emergency....come quick!" Sonny jumped up and ran out the room leaving me standing alone. What could have happened that fast? As I headed for the door I heard a bunch of gun shots and screaming, I rushed out the door not thinking about it "Sonny!" I yelled and ran down the hall. The room smelled of gun powder and it was a bit smoky, but I still seen figures standing around "Sonny?" I asked.

Miss Capone, Sonny mom ran to me with tears in her eyes. "My baby.....he's gone." I looked in her eyes, my heart dropping. I ran to where the others were, there was two bodies laying on the floor, Fat Pauly was crouched down next to one and Lenny was on the phone. Ashley was also crouched down crying on the figure, "Are you okay?" Lucas asked walking up to me.

"What happened?" I asked, still taking in the scene.

"It's Sonny...."
