A/N: Laguna has all the dumb luck he needs… Which is why he found Raine! :D Hahaha! Hmmm… I need to play Duodecim again. I miss playing Laguna…and messing around with the sticky bomb attack. LOL XD Yes, when I'm bored, I will goof off and play Laguna. :P
Thanks for taking the time to read! And thank you Niqsta for you constant reviews. :) Please enjoy and R&R!

Raine never believed in luck, chances, or anything like that. Whatever happened was just cause and effect. She was fine in believing that until she turned twenty-three.
When Estharian soldiers stormed the town, Raine found Ellone on her doorstep and raised her like a daughter. That was serendipity.
And then at twenty-five, Laguna was dragged in her pub – battered and beaten – before she nursed him back to health. That should've been coincidence too, but it felt different.
She never knew a man could be so childish or whimsical or…make her smile so much it hurt.
Laguna was a lucky occurrence.
Lucky :: Haunted

Laguna whistled the one song that made him remember the good old days back in Deling City. Hitting the bar after a hard day's work, joking around with Kiros and Ward…hearing Julia play.
"I wonder how she's doing…?" he whispered, putting away his gun before opening the door to Raine's pub. Laguna went to greet Raine, but the sound of a familiar voice entered his ears.
"How I love your peaceful eyes on me—"
"Oh! Laguna, welcome back." Raine smiled, turning off the radio. "…Laguna?"
Julia's voice…
Sometimes it haunted him when he dwelled too much on the past.
