Abby and Faith got home and found that Luka wasn't asleep yet.
So how was the party? – he asked
Why didn't you join us? – asked Faith
So…what happened?
I screw up the evening.
Stop blaming yourself – said Abby. – you didn't know. And besides during last couple of months everyone who is around when Ray and Neela are in the same room, got involved in the middle of something like that.
So those two again have an argument? – asked Luke
No I argued with Neela after her comments about me and Ray – said Faith
You and Ray?
We were just talking, cool down daddy
Luka it wasn't that horrible as Faith thinks, she just new in our prime time soap. Thank god Gates wasn't with Neela
Gates and Neela? – asked Faith
Yeah… - answered Abby
She choose THAT pervert…..
Faith!!!!
….hamster instead of Barnette? For god's sake tell me you're kidding!!!
No!
Fewww ughhh that's disgusting.
So you liked Ray…- said Luka in a suspicious quite voice
Not in that way as you think. I just think that he, Sam and Abby are the only normal persons in that crazy ER crowd. So can I go for a sleep now?
Sure you can. Abby will show you your room.
So you find him just normal? – asked Abby as they walked to Faiths room.
Split it up Abby, don't dance around the tree. Just say what you want – said Faith.
Well I thought you were impressed when he took off his pullover….
Abby, I am not blind, I ve notice haw he looked in that sleeve less t-shirt and tight jeans, I ve notice how he smiles, moves and other things. I know he is hot, actually too hot to be truth. But you know there is something about him, in his eyes I guess,that makes me feel that he is worth more than one night of steamy, passionate, wild non stop sex marathon. And as I am not able to give that kind of things, then he is just a colleague to me, may be a good friend in future.
Right i get the point. …and how about Greg.
Abby and how about me leaving your apartment and move in a monastery….
Monastery?
Yeah….the females one….
Everything is still that bad?
No it isn't….but I am temporary allergic on romance. And you go back to Luka now.
Sure, but you know I am here if you need a talk.
Yeah I know and thanks for everything.
Faith sat at her bed and finally realized how tired she really was. She knew that Abby wanted the best to her, but how she can explain to her that it's still hurt badly when things come to the romantic relationship? Even Luka doesn't know the whole story. He knew that her boyfriend cheated on her after 4 years of common life and made a baby to another woman. But it was not a full story. The full story is that the girl with who he cheated on her was underage and he was so afraid that he stayed with her, the full story was that the two month before she found out about his betrayal she said "yes" at his proposal. It was 3 years ago. She doesn't love him anymore. When she met him a year ago she hardly recognized him and hardly remembered why did she fall for him. But anyway, somehow it still hurts and she just still don't want to be involved in serious relationship. May be she could have some fun with Greg, but she has a rule to not to have an easy going affairs at work. And Ray… that guy is something. He is much deeper than he shows to everyone. And she saw the hurt in his eyes. Somehow she knew that they are in the same boat here. But still she was alive woman, and if there were different circumstances….oh she knew that he knows what to do in the bedroom, and she would play this game with him with pleasure….but…the things are the way they are and she would not miss a chance to get him as a friend, even if she should forget all the thoughts about how his musician fingers can play a tender and passion melody on her body, or the thought about are his lips so soft as they look or not…..whoa! stop! She said to herself. You are much more mature and wise, stop act like a horny teen and get some sleep.
Greg was driving home and thinking about the events of the evening. He was worried about his friends. The situation was beyond his control, but still he felt responsible. He gave a bad advice to Ray and did not notice when Gates put his hands under Neelas skirt. He knew that there are hard times coming soon, because Ray was in love with Neela, and Neela…oh god he had no idea what was in her head and her heart. She was still grieving over Michael, but at the same time she was in Gates bed. The unpleasant surprise was that she acted very selfish this evening. She pushed Ray out of her life but she did not want him to get a chance to move on. And that will cause a lot of troubles. Also there was Lukas niece. She was hot and tough. She was straight and she make the others to act as straight as she. She was to hard to him, so he decided to stay just friends with her. But he was worried about Gates hanging around her and Neelas reaction on it, no mention about the Faiths reaction. He also noticed that somehow the only person except Luka who can calm down that girl was Barnette. But Ray will never take an opportunity for a small affair with his friend niece not mentioned that Luka was his boss. Greg had no idea how to fix all those things up, the only thing in what he was sure that from tomorrow there would an absolute rock'n'roll in ER.
Luka listened to Abbys story about the evening and smiled. He knew that soon there wiil be a crazy days in ER. But he was glad, because that is what his niece needed, that was the things that can bring her back to life. He wasn't worried about the stuff. He knew that girls already like each other. Well may be not Neela, but Neela was Dubenko's pain in the ass. Greg was wise enough to not make a fool from himself. Ray also was a smart guy and he will get over his Neelas obsession (and Luka was sure that it is not love. Friendship, habit to be with her, lust and hurt men pride all together but not love). Actually Luka was more worried about Ray if Faith would get a crush on him, after what Neela did to him he would not survive if hurricane faith will fall on him. And he was worried about the Gates, somehow he was sure that it will end up in the Anspough office.
Abby could not get a sleep . She liked Faith and was sure that that girl can handle with casual stuff by herself. She was worried about the fact that Faith put a cross on hers personal life, but more than anyone she knew that the time are the best healer and life is full of unexpected surprises. Abby was worried about Neela. That girl was lost. And the way she acted this evening proved that to Abby. Once again Neela did not knew what she want and with whom she want to be with. Abby knew that Neela is that type of a girl who could never be alone. She was ready to be with Gates just not to stay alone. But why Gates? Ass Faith said it disgusting. Of course it was Neelas choice but why not ray? Everybody in ER was sure that those two will end up together. May be they all were wrong? May be she was wrong when she thought that Neela loved Ray deep inside? May be it wasn't love? The only thing she knew for sure that until those two will not at least to build a relationship the hell soap opera in ER will never ends.
Neela was lying in Tonys bed and trying to stop thinking about Ray and Faith together in Rays bedroom. Many very passionate images of steamy animalistic sex between two of them runs trough her mind. She felt sick when she imagined how Ray will moan Faiths name, how Faith will scream Rays name when he will movie inside her. Neela can almost feel the heat in Rays bedroom and hated herself for that. How could he replace her so fast? She decided to wake up Tony for another make out session just to forget about the fact that it would not be she who will wake up in her old apartment in Rays arms.
Ray was sitting on the coach with a bottle of beer in his hand. He was surprised that he did not defend Neela when Faith overreacted at Neelas statement at Ike's. What was wrong with him? Was he hurt to much because of what he saw in conference room? Because now he have no hope that Neela would not end up with Tony. Or may be he was pleased with a jealous spark in Neelas eyes when she saw him talking to Faith. And they wasn't even flirting. And yeah….Faith…he liked her style. He admit to himself. That when he saw her in Ike's his body was punched by a shiver. She was sexy, posh, smart, sarcastic, with a good humor and her presence had cleared in his consciousness the hottest and impudent erotic imaginations and he knew that if he would start that game with her he would get worthy and same strong return from her. But there was something in her eyes what stopped him from the first sight in the doctor lounge, something that showed to him that she had enough of heartache and pain in her life and he could not allowed him self to use her. Besides she was his friend niece. He figured out that he wants her to be his friend, because there was something about her that made him respect her from the start. And he was in love with Neela and Faith deserves more than just some crazy nights full of passion sweats. But if there was other circumstances than may be he would had thrown her through his shoulder, then he would rib all the clothes from her clothes, he would press her body into a bed with his own body and then for the first time wildly and greedy, painfully gently and slowly he would force her to forget about everything in the world ,he would force her to beg him to give her more pleasure……whoa! Stop it Barnette! Go get some cold shower and go back to reality. And in the reality there is no place for things like that and would never be!
