Note- First off I want to say a big Thank you to every person who reviewed Waiting on You, my last Milu story. You made me want to write and post this one.

This story starts on the day that Milo, Max and Sonny rushed into the warehouse and saved Lulu and Jason.

I loved those scenes and the ones that followed at Sonny's house but I felt like they could be elaborated on. So the plot follows what happened on the show, in a way, but goes into more detail and then spins off from there.

The first line is direct dialogue from the 12/01/06 episode of General Hospital.

Chapter One

December, 2006

"Jason almost got me killed," Lulu Spencer said with a pout.

She pointed at the infamous hitman, ratting him out to his partner.

Moments ago, the room was in chaos. Sonny, Max, and Milo, had burst through the door, guns drawn and killed the men who held Jason and Lulu captive. She knew that if they hadn't shown up there was a good chance both her and Jason would have been swimming with the fishes, Soprano's style.

Being drunk didn't help with her reasoning skills so she grabbed the gun from the man laying on the ground and waved it around.

"I had to save Jason's life when he is supposed to be the tough killer hitman dude! I could be a hit girl!"

"Put that down,"Jason said. He grabbed the gun then said to Milo. "Take her out of here. Get her back to Sonny's. We'll clean this up and meet you."

Lulu slurred at Jason, as he eased her into Milo's grasp, "You are so bossy. I don't like you. You're hot but bossy, Morgan. BOSSY!"

Then she focused on Milo, who was smiling down at her with his arm around her waist. She giggled at the adorable way he was looking at her. "I'm a bad ass hit woman in training, just so you know."

"Oh, okay," Milo said, his smiled growing wider.

"Milo, can you handle this or not?" barked Jason. Milo and Lulu hadn't moved even a step toward the door yet.

"I'll go with them," Max said

"No," argued Milo "I got it under control."

"Then go!" ordered Jason.

Lulu tried to walk and stumbled. "Something's wrong with my feet. My feet are broken. You almost got me killed and you broke my feet, Jason."

"You are never drinking tequila again," Jason told her. "You're drunk, Spencer."

"Am not, Morgan!" She tumbled forward when she tried to walk again.

Milo caught her and then said, into her ear, "I'm going to carry you, okay? Just hold on tight, Lulu. You're safe now."

He scooped her into his arms and she giggled. "God, you are strong. Like a Greek god. Do they call you that? Spitelli...no..no.

Spigelli...no...no.Spagetti." she want on like this Milo carried her to the car.

She tried several more versions of the computer hackers name before screaming "Spinelli! That's it! Yes, Spinelli calls me Blonde One. Do you like that? Do you like blonde hair? I have blonde hair."

Milo laughed and jerked opened the car door. He placed her in the passenger seat and buckled her in. As he was leaned over her, she sucked in a breath and said "My God, you smell so good. Yum! I could lick you up."

Milo started to choke. He closed the car door and stood their for a moment, until his body calmed down.

As they drove toward GreyStone she said, "You got there just in time to save my ass...I mean butt...booty..rear...wow there are a lot of names for ass, aren't there? Anyway, what was I saying? Oh, yeah, you saved me. And you don't even know me. That was nice of you."

"It's my job, Lulu."

"No fair. You know my name and I don't know yours. Or if I do, I forgot. I think Jason broke my brain. Will you beat him up for me?"

"My name is Milo."

"Mi- lo. Mi-lo. My low." she kept repeating it, stressing different syllables.

Then she started to do her own name. "Lu...lu. Lulu. Lu-luuuu. Milo and Lulu. Lulu and Milooooooo...oh, I am so glad to be alive. I like air, don't you? Air is the best stuff ever."

Milo laughed. "Have you ever been drunk before?"

"Jason was lying. I'm not drunk. I'm just a little tipsy."

He tried to wipe the smile off he face as he told her, "Okay. Maybe you can take a nap at Sonny's and then..."

"Sonny's? I don't want to go there. I was already held long enough against my will. I want to go home. Will you take me home, Milo?"

"I can't. I don't think it would be safe for you right now."

"But I'm a junior hit woman. I can take care of myself."

"How about, just for now, until you are a full fledged hit woman that you let me help to keep you breathing all that air that you love so much. Does that sound like an all right deal, Lulu?"

She sighed, the smiled at him, "I guess so. But only because you are so cute, Milo. If anyone has to save my ass I guess I will let it be you. But don't think this means I am not tough and bad ass anymore. Because I so am."

"I believe you," he said.

He led her up to a guest bedroom. When they were inside the room he said, "You can shower, if you want. There are some clothes in the closet. Carly leaves a few things here."

Lulu walked, on shaky legs, to the bed and collapsed onto it. "Are we at a carnival? This room is spinning. Turn the ride off, please, Milo."

Lulu moaned in misery.

"Try putting one foot on the ground," Milo said to her.

She followed his instructions.

"All right, now, just stay very still. I'm going to get you some Sprite to settle your stomach. Will you be okay until I get back?"

"My head is killing me. I think a bird flew in my ear. It's pecking away at my brain."

"I'll bring aspirins, too."

She covered her face. "This is so embarrassing. I am a lush! But I didn't have a choice. If I didn't drink that bottle of booze they would have shot Spinelli."

"Then you did what you had to. I bet your dad would be very proud of how you handled yourself."

She took one hand away and peeked at him. In a small voice, she asked "You think so?"

"Luke Spencer, right?"

"Yeah, Luke 'I love adventure' Spencer," she said bitterly. She moved her arm over her eyes.

"I'm going to turn off the light, okay?" he asked and moved to do that. "I'm going to run down to the kitchen but I'll be right back. You are safe in here, I promise you."

"Okay."

"And Lulu?"

"Yeah?"

"You did real good today. You saved yourself and helped your friend."

Her lips quivered. Softly she said, "Thanks, Milo."
