Still

It's been almost one year since Lu was raped & she is still struggling to move forward. She has nightmares all the time, has trouble being intamite w/ Mickey (it maybe because her anniversary is coming up?). Dana & Nick decide to give it another try together even w/ the baby she adopted who has HIV. What's gonna go on between them this time & will it last?

--One of Dana's patients comes into the ER w/ a bad case of the chicken pox & a fever of 102.5, Nick pages Dana. Meanwhile Lu is in her office talking to Marc on the phone. It's been a slow day so far today & everyone is hopefully that it will be a good afternoon too.--

Nick: "Dana I don't like her levels at all we need to get her cool real quick."

Dana: "Let's push the fluids & put some Tylenol in her IV to help try to bring the fever down."

Lu: "Marc I miss u too, I will see u soon, I love u, bye bye."

Lana: "Lu Marc's only at Bill's house."

Lu: "I worry about him u know."

--Later that evening...--

Mickey: "Lu what's wrong everytime I go to touch you, your-"

Lu: "It's nothing."

Mickey: "-skin crawls & you don't seem into this."

Lu: "I'm alright Mic it's nothing I said."

Mickey:"Bull shit what's wrong you can tell me Lu."

--Lu is near tears at this point, she says nothing.--

Mickey: "Baby it's ok it's me Mickey, we don't have to do anything you don't want to do."

--Lu & Mickey start getting touchy/feely & Lu has a flashback of her rape. She pulls away. Mickey tells her again that it's okay & trys again. She pulls away again this time in tears.--

Lu: "Mickey can you just hold me for a while baby?"

Mickey: "Do you wanna talk about it or what can I do?"

Lu: "Just hold me & tell me that everythings gonna be alright."

--Dana & Nick are back at Dana's apartment watching the news & getting comfortable on the couch. Nick kisses Dana & is suprised when he goes to leave & she responds "no your not leaving yet".--

Dana: "Nick stay here a little longer w/ me."

Nick: "Dana it's late."

Dana: "So spend the night w/ me."

Nick: "Dana we aren't even together."

Dana: "Well we can change that you know, Nick I love you."

Nick: "Dana-"

--Dana kisses Nick--

Dana: "Don't tell me that you don't want to get back together."

Nick: "I love you Dana, I just want to move slow this time is all."

Dana: "Just let me hold you Nick, no sex just sleep I promise."

Nick: "Alright, it is getting late & I am super tired."

--Later that night in the dark somehow Dana & Nick find eachother & make love. / At Lu's apartment...--

Mickey: "Lu, Lu, Lu!"

Lu: "Huh? What time is it?"

Mickey: "It's almost four, you were having a nightmare are you alright?"

Lu: "Can we turn the lights on for a little bit?"

Mickey: "That's fine if it will help you sleep."

Dana & Nick officially get back together two weeks later. Mickey & Lu are doing fine, he helped her through the anniversary which wasn't a piece of cake. The patient w/ chicken pox was released six days later on meds & she will be fine.
