"Just the girl I wanted to see," Diego said smiling.
Lulu looked at Diego and smiled
"Realized that you couldn't have Georgie and have come to take me as your first runner up," Lulu said, "well forget it I don't want Georgie's sloppy seconds."
"That's fine," Diego said, "the fact that you read my mind scares me a bit though."
"Wait you were going to ask me out," Lulu said.
"Well Prom is coming up and all," Diego said.
"You graduated last year why would you care about prom," Lulu asked.
"I just thought you would want a date," Diego said.
"As flattered as I am you asked I'm not the prom going type," Lulu said walking out of the diner with a confused look on her face. 'If only I could talk to my mom, really talk to her,' she thought as she headed to shadybrook to visit Laura.
Meanwhile...
"Amanda good you're here," said Robin, "we have a situation."
"Robin we need to talk," Patrick said
"If it's not life or death can it wait ," Robin asked.
"I was going to just ask if you wanted to go to dinner tonight at the Metro Court," Partick said.
"Yea I'd love too," Robin said to Patrick then turning to Amanda, "Amanda, Courtney's Baby..."
"Oh no did he die," Amanda said.
"No," Robin said, "apparently Jax wasn't the father Nickolas was."
"But wasn't the christening the other day," Amanda said.
"It was and I kind of spilled the beans," Robin said.
"You have a habit for that sort of thing Robin," Amanda said.
"I know," Robin said, "anyway I was wondering if you could recommend a nanny for Nickolas."
"Well I know of an out of work actress," Robin said, "granted she is a drama queen and my fiancé's ex."
"You'd hire Mark's ex girlfriend as Nickolas's Nanny," Robin asked.
"She dumped him for a lawyer named Joanne," Amanda said.
"So she's gay," Robin said.
"Bi actually," Amanda said, "and I think that she'd be great for Nick since he needs a new woman in his life after Courtney."
"I know," Robin said, "he's a mess.
Lulu entered Shadybrook and sat in Laura's room for a while talking to her catatonic mother about her brother constantly being used for target practice by the mob and living up to his name 'Lucky' as well as the whole Diego situation and why she Hated Georgie Jones with a passion. As she left she kissed her mother goodbye and left the room. As she turned away from the door she was suddenly startled.
"At least this is a hospital I almost had a heart attack," Lulu said.
"I'm so sorry," said the young man who appeared.
"Can we go someplace else to talk," Lulu said, "this place gives me the chills."
"I'm not from around here," the man said, "I actually am just here to visit my sister here in Shadybrook and to look for an apartment for when I move to Port Charles this fall."
"Why would anyone want to move to Port Charles," said Lulu.
They were now outside and in the park when he turned to her.
"I teach," He said, "or will be teaching at PCU come the fall semester."
"No way I'll be at PCU this fall as well," Lulu said, "but as a student."
"We never formally introduced," he said.
"I guess not," Lulu said.
"Ok I guess I'll go first since I clearly was the one that bumped into you," he said, "I'm Peter...Peter Marquez."
"Lulu Spencer," Lulu said.
