Lulu Zacharra had never been the type of girl who wanted a future. She never planned on getting married, falling in love, having kids. But she realized that when it happens for you…you never go back. You never even look back. Her mother and father's love for each other was compared to Lulu and Johnny. Her mother ran away with her father, had kids, and went back to Port Charles. So far, that was what she and Johnny were doing, but they were NOT planning to go back to Port Charles anytime soon. What did she have to go back to? Nothing. Everything she had ever wanted was right where she was. "Mommy, Ali is crying!" "Okay sweetie…I'm coming." By the time she got upstairs, Johnny had already been holding her and rocking her in the pink laced rocking chair that they had bought. She stood in the doorway and leaned her head against the wall opening. She starred in awe at her husband and newborn daughter. She had so much things planned for her and her daughter. Shop together, do everything together. She slowly crept up to Johnny and took a seat on his leg starring at their baby. "I love you lulu. Johnny whispered" "I love you too" They kissed lightly. After they put Ali to bed, they walked into their big blue, white, and black bedroom. He closed the door behind him. Lulu had remembered the night that her and Johnny met. The time was astonishing and The smile Johnny had on his face was bright and lush. Their old routine before they had Joe was they would go to bed together and make love in the morning. But now with kids, and making them breakfast and all, that would all have to be saved for night. It was now 12:38am and Johnny lay with Lulu in his neck. They talked about how their lives were so perfect and that Lulu wanted to have another baby soon. "It would be even more perfect to have twins, you know." "Four kids, that's already four kids Lulu." "Well with all the times you make love to me, it wouldn't be such a huge surprise." Johnny leaned over and placed his two hands around lulu surrounding her while his body was on top of her. He kissed her face, her neck, her chest, and the rest of her body. She ripped off his boxers as he did her panties and bra. She held his body as he had his arms on her waist. She groaned in search for air. He had taken all she had. She leaned up more and more with him until both of them eventually fell to the floor. It didn't seem to bother them. The more he touched her and did other things the more she wanted to stay in that moment forever. She felt safe, secure, happy, and he did as well. By morning, she laid on his chest as their son called for both his parents. They quickly got dressed and headed for their son. Lulu went into her daughter's room and picked her up, kissed her forehead and changed her diaper and put on a pink feety pajama outfit on her. She sat down with her daughter and combed the little hairs she had. After that, she had bathed her in the white marble sink in their giant bathroom. She got her daughter re-dressed in her pajamas and walked downstairs and placed her in the little white Gerber high-chair they had at the end of the table. Lulu headed for the refrigerator for a jar of banana and strawberry baby food. She took a white covered "gushy" spoon and fed her daughter. Johnny watched her and melted. He loved her so much it made him want to just rip his tee shirt off and in half. He continued with the eggs and waffles he was making as his son watched in amazement. The door bell rang and Johnny answered it. He came back with a HUGE white fisher price box that had a crab with water on it. Lulu said "Look kids, it's a pool!" "Yay! Yelled their 2 almost 3 year old son." Ali was banging the table with her fists and smiling. As Johnny brought the big box outside, Lulu made lemonade and sandwiches and took her kids and walked out side to the back yard where her husband led. She set her son on the deck where Johnny was filling the pool. She set Ali down on a towel on the lawn next to her. They all watched as Johnny filled the pool with warm water. "Why don't you take the kids and get their bathing suits on Johnny said to Lulu" "I will" She scooped up her kids and walked upstairs and told Joey to get on his monkey suit. She brought Ali into the baby nursery and placed a bright pink flower one piece bathing site and smeared on SPF 50 on her daughter. She wasn't big on sunscreen, but for a baby…she took it seriously. She put a little white hat that covered about 3 inches forward of her daughters head. They went back outside and Joe had already been in. Lulu gently placed her month old baby in the water as she pounced the water with her hands. Lulu and Johnny sat next to each other and watched their kids play in the crab pool. They had once back in Port Charles bought an octopus sandbox from the same brand that Joey had played in when he was Alianna's age. He would pick up sand in his hands and through it at his mom and dad as they tried to cover themselves. Johnny would sit in it with Joey sometimes and teach him to let the sand fall through his tiny fingers. Joey loved spending time with his dad. Johnny had always taken Joseph for drives at night to make him fall asleep. Lulu loved the way her husband bonded with their children. It made her toes curl and her lips form a smile.
