PROMPT #3:
I'll pretend that I'm kissing
The lips I am missing
And hope that my dreams will come true.


Lulu Spencer was lying in her room at the Quartermaine mansion wide awake. She was worried about too many things. Her father recently underwent a quadruple bypass however she knew the worst was yet to come...Luke Spencer could never be tamed. She was also torn between two very dangerous men. The lesser of the two evils, Logan Hayes was supposedly still her boyfriend though she really didn't know anymore. Was she giving him a second chance as an obligation to his father Scott Baldwin or did she genuinely care. Then there was Johnny Zacchara, she thought that after he picked her up hitchhiking they'd never see each other again however that proved to be wrong. She looked at the clock...5:00 AM she could get up and get dressed and head to Kelly's...work the shift Georgie should have been taken however she really wasn't in a people person mood at the moment. She closed her eyes and tried to figure out what path she should follow.

Maxie Jones woke up to an empty bed and a note.

-Went to the Station-See you later-Coop-

Maxie smiled and fixed herself up before heading downstairs and putting on an apron and heading to her first table.

"Oh great it's you," Maxie said.

"Good morning to you too sunshine," Logan said showing off his trademark smarmy grin.

"What do you want Logan," she asked.

"Coffee...eggs...just tell Mike my usual he'll know what it was," Logan said, "Your sister did."

"You have no right to talk about my sister," Maxie said.

"Georgie was a sweet kid," Logan said.

"She hated you," Maxie said.

"I know that," Logan said, "but she had a good way of hiding it for the most part...I was at the funeral...heard your little speech."

"I didn't see you," she said.

"I stood outside," he said, "I knew I wouldn't be welcomed."

Maxie nodded. He was right about that.

"Anyway," he said, "I wanted to say I'm sorry for your loss."

Maxie rolled her eyes and nodded.

"I'll tell Mike your order," she said.

He smiled and watched her walk off. He could tell the Blonde was hurt and secretly wished he had treated both her and her late sister better in the past.

Spinelli had that nightmare again, of finding her dead in the snow, a phone cord on her neck. He wanted to call the Blonde One but didn't think his former crush would want to hear about his broken heart. He wanted to tell Stone Cold but he had his own secret pains. He wished he had more friends, a life outside of cyberspace. It was just a few days to the New Year and that was his resolution. He decided to get washed up and head out...somewhere...anywhere... It was soon that he found himself in the park, on those steps, a candle in his hand. It was still early, slightly after sunrise and it was an overcast winter's day. He pulled out his trusty fire starter that had gotten him out of a few jams in the past and lit the candle.

Lulu called Kelly's to hear Mike tell her Maxie was covering the shift and would cover all Georgie's shifts until the new schedule was made. After hearing this the young blonde contemplated getting out of the house but knew that she needed to face the harsh reality of life soon. As she headed downstairs she spotted Dillon pacing the living room.

"Dillon," she said, "I thought you left already."

"I'm staying," he said, "every time I go back people die...I know I'm being selfish but I don't want the next time I come home to be for your funeral Lu."

"It won't be," she said, 'you can trust me...go back to Toronto...make your movie...make it in Emily and Georgie's name...I'll be there when it premieres sitting in the front row giving you a standing ovation."

He teard a bit and gave her a hug.

"Promise me," he said.

"I promise," she replied walking him out.

--

Logan watched the young Blonde trying to hold back her tears as each customer gave there condolences. He genuinely felt horrible for what happened and wanted to kill this man himself once he found him.

Spinelli pulled out a manila folder from his bag marked PCPD. From the envelope he pulled out the love letters she wrote to him. He needed to do this. To set him free...to move on and start a new life...carpe diem...it was what Georgie would want him to do. He picked up the first of the letters and pulled it toward his face brushing his bottom lip toward the paper.

"Wise Georgie," he began, "I loved you too with all my heart...I the Jackal was blinded by others and humbly regret not seeing your fairness before it was too late. However I can not dwell in what could have been and beseech your guidance and wisdom to help me open my heart and guide me to a full and happy life."

Lulu was walking back from the bus station and saw him standing there and knew something had to be done.
