Johnny O'Brien
Johnny is one of Jason's best friends and his right hand man when it comes to business. His talents were wasted while he was working with Sonny, but ever since Jason took control, he's proven his worth. Johnny grew up in Chicago where he was raised as part of the 'family'. His best friend growing up was Sonja Morales, who also happened to be his first love. Johnny left it all behind when he came to Port Charles and never looked back. Recently, Sonja has come back into his life and that fact has made Johnny extremely happy. So much so, that she's now on Jason's payroll as well. Currently single, Johnny loves the ladies. The fact that Sonja is his 'girl on the side' doesn't dissuade him from looking for his latest 'conquest'. Marriage is definitely the last thing on his mind at the moment. Then again . . .

Sonja Morales
Sonja Morales is a living testament to that old adage 'don't judge a book by its cover'. On the outside, she appears to be the 'sweet girl next door' type, but she's not. Her family has long been associated with the Chicago organization and it's there that she met her best friend -- Johnny O'Brien.
She and Johnny were inseparable growing up, and when Johnny left for Port Charles, young Sonja's heart was broken. It wasn't until last year that Johnny and Sonja found each other once again. Johnny, ever loyal to his friends, introduced her to Jason. Talent like Sonja's isn't wasted on running errands like fetching coffee or paperwork. Her skills are applied to where Jason needs them the most - on his hit squad. Sonja is constantly wary of men in her life, a bit of insecurity is always in her eyes. But she loves what does and has no regrets to where her life has lead her. Her friendship with Johnny is stronger than ever, her trust in him never wavers, and the little girl inside of her will always love him. But she also knows that he's moved on in his life and she as well. None of this information, however, keeps her from having Johnny as her own 'boy on the side'.

Louise 'Lou' O'Connor
Lou, was once Todd's personal assistant at The Sun years ago and she left her job after he was presumed dead. Even before his 'death', she struck up a strong friendship with his wife, Blair, and it only became stronger through the years. After Todd's reappearance a few years ago, he strong-armed her into returning as his assistant. She agreed, not because she's Blair's best friend, but because she has never enjoyed a job as much as the one at The Sun. Lou takes crap from no one and that includes her boss. She thinks he's a pain in the ass, but she loves what she does. She considers all of the Mannings to be her family and vice versa. Lou tends to be a bit brass at times, but it's only a wall she's built after being burned so many times and all by the wrong guys. Her faith in finding "Mr. Right" is slowly dying, but a little part of her hopes that he'll show himself one day.

Steve Anton
Todd Manning can count all of his friends on one hand and that includes his wife, Blair, and their pal Lou. And then there's Steve Anton. An unconventional friendship that was built on money, lies, and dirty dealings. Steve has no family, no wife, and no kids, so he has no worries and he's always looking for some type of trouble to get into. And that's when Todd Manning came into his life. A mutual hatred for a certain lady lawyer has bonded them for life -- whether they like it or not. Steve and Todd are the only ones who know what has happened to the third Mrs. Manning and neither one will ever tell.
At times, Steve looks to Todd and can't help but be jealous. It's not the money. It's certainly not the reputation. It's his family. Deep down, Steve would kill again just to be able to have what Todd has when it comes to his family. The gorgeous wife, the beautiful kids, and one day, even though he would deny it, he hopes to have that as well.
