WILL ROBERTS'S HISTORY

Originally, Will was thought to be the son of Lucas' half-brother Austin Reed and Sami. The confusion over his paternity led to custody battles that lasted over a decade. Through all of this, he was often used as a pawn for Kate and Sami in their battles over control, a situation that often put Will in an uncomfortable position.

As he grew up, he became aggressive at school, even hurting his cousin Abby on numerous occasions. He also became disrespectful and off-handed with his parents. Things got worse for him when both of his parents became suspects in the Salem Stalker case. While the stress of this seemed to bring his parents closer together and offered him hope of their reunion, it also made him suspect that his father had returned to his drinking habit. Amidst the chaos of Sami's love life, an embarrassed Will ran away from home when she jilted Austin at the altar. She and Lucas went on television pleading for his return, all the while believing that he has been abducted. He had only gone away for some time alone. He returned safely when he ran out of money to buy food.

He moved in with his father and grandmother when Lucas was on one of his many breaks from Sami. Lucas came to befriend Sami again, for the sake of their son, before their relationship once again escalated.

Will now resides with his mother and father, who have now married.

Friday, November 16 2007: Just leave me alone

Billie goes over to Lucas' looking for some good news. 'EJ told Sami that he wants to die,' Lucas says. That doesn't sound very good to Billie. Lucas tells her that she is with EJ right now. That doesn't surprise her; she and EJ went through a traumatic experience and that can bind people together. She gives Lucas a hug and promises him that things will get better. He doesn't think so: Johnny/Gianni is going to be a DiMera. He tells Billie that he needs the name of a good lawyer— he's suing for sole custody of his daughter so that he can raise her alone. Lucas is sure that EJ will live just to spite him and, eventually, he and Sami would try and take his daughter away. After looking in on the nameless little girl, she agrees to get him a lawyer. He has to tell Sami that he is doing this though or he will only make things worse, she warns. Lucas doesn't trust Sami anymore: The DiMera's are falling apart, the vendetta amounts to almost nothing now and she is still playing to their tune. He needs everything down in writing. Billie tells him that he should think long and hard before he calls a lawyer. After she leaves, he calls Sami and leaves a message, telling her that he needs to talk to her. There is a knock at the door. It's a cop with Will. He was caught drinking under age with some other boys. Lucas brings him in and starts questioning his son. Their family has a history of alcoholism: How can he treat him like this? Will tells him that he hates it here: He wants to go and live with Carrie and Austin so he doesn't have to watch his mother destroy everyone's lives. Lucas can't say no. He sets it up and then reminds Will that none of this is his fault. 'I'm gonna miss you a lot,' Lucas says. Will tells him that he doesn't know what to wish for anymore; he just wants everyone to be alright. Lucas hugs him and reminds him that they are a family and always will be.

Thursday, November 08 2007: Er, Shotgun wedding?!

Sami nervously gives Lucas instructions on how to care for the babies and when Will shows up, he asks if she's set on doing this. He's visibly upset and has changed his mind about Sami marrying EJ. Lucas stands up for Sami's reasons for marrying EJ but Will reminds her she'll be stuck with the guy that raped her and asks, "We're supposed to stand here and watch?" Lucas asks Will to stop. Will admits he wants to go back and live with Carrie and Austin. Sami asks them to discuss it later but he says it'll be too late and marches out the door. Lucas comforts Sami and tells her Will is young and hurt it'll take time for him to understand. He thinks Will should spend time with Carrie and Austin right now, for his own safety. Lucas begs Sami not to do this but through her tears, Sami apologizes and removes her wedding rings and places them on the desk before she walks out.
