CHAPTER FIFTY-NINE

PORT CHARLES AIRPORT:

Bobbie(is waiting for Sonny and Carly as the disembark from the plane)You two made good time.

Carly: Bobbie, you’re the one who called us back here. Why?

Bobbie: I don’t really know. I got this very cryptic call from Dr. Meadows. All she would tell me is she needed both you and Sonny back here immediately. She wouldn’t tell me why. She said she would talk to the both of you when you both got here.

Sonny: Didn’t she hint there might be something wrong with Carly? Carly said she went to see her just before we got married.

Carly: Hey, Sonny, maybe she’ll tell us I can’t have anymore children. Wouldn’t that make your day?(with that she walks off towards the awaiting car).

Bobbie: What was that all about?

Sonny: Don’t ask.

SCORPIO HOUSE:

Mac: (opens the door and finds Chloe standing on his doorstep)Chloe, what are you doing here?

Chloe: Mac, I didn’t like the way we left things between us at the police station.

Mac: Chloe, you shouldn’t be here. I’m the police commissioner and you’re a suspect.

Chloe: Mac, didn’t what we share mean anything to you?

Mac; You know it did.

Chloe: Then how can you think I’m the Sex Toy Stalker.

Mac: Chloe, I don’t really think you are, but the evidence against you is stacking up and I had to do my job and bring you in for questioning.

Chloe(throws herself in his arms and plants a passionate kiss on his lips)I knew deep down you couldn’t think I was some psychotic serial killer.

Mac: (pushes her away from him)Chloe, we shouldn’t be doing this. If someone sees us together they’d get the wrong idea. You and I...it’s a conflict of interest. I’m the police commissioner and you’re my prime suspect.

Chloe(boldly runs her fingernail down the zip of Mac’s tight jeans)Mac, no one would know but us. (she wraps her body tightly around his and whispers in his ear)Mac, I need you. I need you to take me upstairs and make love to me all night long. Please don’t push me away.

DR MEADOWS OFFICE, GENERAL HOSPITAL:

Sonny(as he and Carly sit down in chairs opposite Dr. Meadows desk)Dr. Meadows, is there something wrong with Carly? Is that why you called up back from our honeymoon?

Dr. Meadows: No, Sonny, Carly is just fine.

Carly: Then if there’s nothing wrong with me why did you need to see us so urgently.

Dr. Meadows: I don’t know really how to tell you this. It’s going to come as such of a shock. I guess they only way is to just say it. Carly, you remember the tests I wanted to perform on you when I examined you?

Carly: Yes, you were kind of cryptic about why you wanted to do them.

Sonny: I thought you said nothing was wrong with Carly. Why would you want to run tests on her if there wasn’t anything wrong with her. Look, if there’s something wrong with Carly you’ve got to tell me. I have to know.(Carly suddenly starts to get scared that something might be wrong with her, too. She slips her hand into Sonny’s and grasps it needing to feel Sonny’s strength to get her through whatever Dr. Meadows has to tell her. Sonny wraps his hand tightly around Carly’s needing that same comfort. Their fight completely forgotten in their shared fear of what was to come.)

Dr. Meadows: Let me assure you both Carly is completely healthy. The reason I ran the tests I did was because while I was examining Carly I thought I detected a fetal heartbeat.

Sonny: What are you saying? I stood there and watched as our child was taken from Carly. How could you detect a fetal heartbeat. Our baby is dead.

Dr. Meadows: Because there’s another baby. Sonny, you and Carly were going to have twins and one of those babies survived.

HELENA’S YACHT:

Stefan(and Alexis enter)Mother! Mother, are you here!

Alexis: Stefan, even if you’re right that Bobbie will be Helena’s next victim, that doesn’t mean she’s going to go after Bobbie, tonight. There was no need for us to rush over here like this.

Stefan: If she isn’t planning to go after Barbara, tonight, than where is she?

Alexis: Stalking the waterfront for new boytoy’s to fill her harem?

Stefan: That’s not funny, Alexis.

Alexis: But it could be true.

Stefan: No, I can feel it in my bones. As we speak, Mother is going after Barbara and I have to hope I’m not too late to stop her.

OUTSIDE THE BROWNSTONE:

Helena(and Andreas watch as Bobbie enters the Brownstone)I’ll be handling the Spencer bitch on my own, Andreas.

Andreas: But, Madam, you might need me.

Helena; Andreas, the day has not come that I can’t dispose of a piece of waterfront trash like Bobbie Spencer on my own without any help from you. When that day does come it’ll be time for me to crawl into my crypt.

Andreas: As you wish, Madame, but if you should need my assistance you need only call my name and I’ll be there at your side.

Helena(caresses his cheek lovingly)I know that. That’s why I keep you around. (she looks to the Brownstone with deadly intent)Now it’s time for the Sex Toy Stalker to claim another harlot as his next victim.
