Lulu walked onto the elevator, she wasn't sure if Dante really wanted to see her or not, but she knew he was the one person she wanted to, needed to talk to. She pressed the button for his floor and was hoping he wouldn't send her away. She knew he didn't owe her anything after the last fight they had, after all they hadn't talked in a while, but she didn't know where else to turn too. The elevator started to go up, she just kept taking deep breathes. She was also hoping Dante wasn't with Brook, Brook was the last person she wanted to see right now. When the elevator stopped she took one last deep breath and then once the door opened, she opened the gate and walked into the apartment. She looked around and didn't see Dante anywhere, she thought about leaving, when she heard noise.

"Ma I told you I didn't need…." Dante started to say as he walked into the living and stopped when he saw Lulu standing there. "Lulu" After no hearing from her he wasn't expecting her here at all. Let along talking to him.

"I didn't know where else to go" Lulu said, and then a few tears feel from her eyes. Dante walked over to her and pulled her into a hug. He could tell she needed someone right and now and wasn't going to let their fight get in the way.

"Cameron, what did I tell you about bugging Mike?" Elizabeth said to her son, who was at the counter trying to get Mike to get him some cookies.

"It's okay Elizabeth don't worry about it" Mike said to her. Elizabeth still didn't like Cameron trying to get what he wanted by begging. She knew if everyone caved to his puppy dog face he'd never learn anything.

"No Mike it's not. Cameron come back and sit down" Elizabeth said. She then finally got up and walked over to the counter to get Cameron to come back over to the table. "Do you really want to be stuck in your room when Nikolas and Spencer come over?"

"No" Cameron said to his mother. He then got down from the stool and moved over to her.

"Now please sit down, and be good." Elizabeth asked him. They then headed back over to the table. Cameron sat in his chair and Elizabeth walked back over to her, but before she could sit down she was blindsided by a pain. She put her hand on the table and the free one of her stomach. Cameron's face went to worry. He was worried he caused it. All this happened just as Patrick walked in. He moved quickly over to Elizabeth, worried about her.

"Elizabeth are you okay?" Patrick asked her. Elizabeth looked up at Patrick and let out a small laugh.

"I'm fine. The baby just decided to punish me for keeping his brother from his cookies" Elizabeth said joking. She then looked over to Cameron who had a sad face. Elizabeth smiled at her son and then moved over to him. "I'm fine honey. You sister just came out to let her know it's not okay for me to keep you from those cookies"

"I don't have to them" Cameron said to her. She just shook her head.

"Hey give me your hand" Elizabeth said to her eldest son. He reached out his hand. She then placed it on her stomach. "You feel that?" She asked him. Cameron looked up and nodded his head. "That is your baby sister kicking. She wants us to know she's here."

"Hi baby" Cameron said to his mother stomach. Elizabeth couldn't help but smile.

"See that she can hear you" Elizabeth said to him after the baby kicked again. Cameron was all giggy. Elizabeth could tell he was going to like being an old brother to a baby sister. Cameron thing pulled his hand away. "How about you go and get those cookies" Elizabeth said and before she could even say anything else, Cameron was in the kitchen. Elizabeth looked over at Patrick. "Sit down" She said to him, offering the empty chair, as she walked back to her chair. Patrick walked over and sat down in the chair across from Jake.

"Sometimes I wonder if you superwomen in disguise" Patrick said to her as she walked Elizabeth started to clean Jake up who seemed to have more food on him then he most likely ate.

"It's all part of my job" Elizabeth said with a laugh. "I just think Cameron's worried he might lose me again. Even though I've been home for months now, I still think he thinks might go away again. I'm here and trying to saw him I am here. And I'm sticking around. But he is very excited for the new baby"

"I heard a girl. Congratulations Elizabeth." Patrick said to her with a smile.

"Thanks" Elizabeth said with a half smile.

"What's wrong with that?" He asked her. He could tell something was.

"This is all wrong. I have accepted it, but Lucky and I were supposed to have a baby girl. And now that Nikolas and I are, it feels so wrong." Elizabeth said to him. She knew she couldn't will the baby to be Lucky's, but she did feel wrong that she was having a girl with Nikolas, when Lucky and she had so many plans for a baby girl.

"Who knows maybe this unexpected wonder will become something amazing. You just never know" Patrick sad to her, hoping to bring in the positive instead of the negative.

"A baby is nothing but joy and happiness. And that is all I need to think about right now" Elizabeth said to Patrick with a real smile.

Dante walked from the kitchen with a bottle of water and over to the couch where Lulu was sitting. He handed it to her as he sat down. He knew right now was a time for her. Whatever she needed he was going to try and give it to her. The fight was in the past and all they had was here and now. He could see she needed a friend and wasn't going to deny her of that. After all she had listened to him about his new found family issues and his mother issues. So now was his time to repay her for all the times she let him just rant about his endless problems, even when he knew she had better things to do. She was a good person in staying and listening then running off and trying to avoid it all. That was one thing that made him love her even more.

"I messed everything up" She told him as she took the bottle from him. Tears where still falling from her eyes, but she didn't care anymore.

"What did you mess up?" Dante asked her. She either was avoiding it, or waiting for him to say no you haven't.

"I found out something I shouldn't have again." Lulu said. She put the bottle of water on the coffee table and then got up of the couch and walked away from it slightly with her back turned to Dante. "And now I'm lying to my brother again." Lulu said and then turned back to face Dante. Not sure how he was going to face Lucky again. "And I know he's going to hate me"

"He's your brother, I'm sure he'll understand, maybe if you talk to him?" Dante said to her trying to offer best advice he could think of. He knew her and her brothers where close, at least her and Lucky where, Nikolas not so much after she found out he was sleeping with Lucky's Fiance. So he knew she had to be talking about Lucky, since she wasn't so excited for the fact she was going to be an aunt.

"He won't. I know he won't" Lulu said to him. She then took a deep breath, and then opened her mouth before Dante could even say anything. "And I know what you're going to say how do you know that? About three years ago, I found out Elizabeth had slept with Jason and never told my brother. I kept the secret along with Elizabeth because Lucky was finally getting help for his drug addiction and when he was released we thought if he knew he'd relapse." Lulu explained to Dante, leaving out how she also found out about Jake not truly being Lucky's but that wasn't her secret to tell, not even to Dante who she trusted with her life. "But he ended up finding out, in court actually. I don't even know how he managed to forgive me, but Lucky did. He came to me last year asking me if I knew about Nikolas falling in love with Elizabeth, and I was just as shocked as he was. But could understand why he came to me and asked if I knew" Lulu continued to explain to Dante, kind of trailing off.

"Are you saying you knew about the affair? Because I thought you were really upset with them both?" Dante questioned him. Slightly expecting her to yell at him for even thinking about it, but it seemed to be where she was going with her explaining.

"No, I didn't know about the affair, but if I did know I would have told him" Lulu said. She could understand why he thought that since she was going on about oh she knew about Elizabeth's affair with Jason. She then walked closer to the couch and picked up her coat that was lying on the back of the couch. She reached her hand into the pocket that had the DNA results and pulled them out. "I lied to him about this" Lulu said as she handed the paper to Dante. He looked at her and then looked down at the paper. He unfolded it and then started to read it, trying to see what she could lie about. Then he read the words. He looked back up at Lulu. "I know he's the father, but could I tell them, no I couldn't. My stupid brother, I hate Nikolas for this, I do, but for some reason I am keeping his secret."

"You do know that also means you care about him to" Dante said to her. He knew it wasn't what she wanted to hear, but it was the truth. "Did he ask you to keep the secret?"

"Not in so many words. It was more like your sick and twisted Nikolas. Lulu please you have to believe me this isn't want it looks like and trust me" Lulu said to him as she placed her coat back down and then sat down on the couch.

"So maybe deep down you want to trust him and believe him in whatever he is doing." Dante said to her. He was hoping he could help in some way. "Or we can call your brother over right now and you can tell him?"

"What would be the point?" Lulu asked him. She already lied to him; she couldn't face him now, not yet anyways. "I've already lied to my brother; he's not going to forgive me for that"

"You're being too hard on yourself." Dante said. He then placed his hand on her knee and moved a bit closer. "My mother lied to me my whole life about who my father was, and sure I am mad at her, but do I hate her no. I could never hate my mother, why because she is family. She raised me, and taught me everything. Sure if you tell him you lied he'll be upset with you, but deep down he can't hate you. And in time he'll forgive you and move past it."

"I'm going to give you the benefit of the doubt and just say you don't know Lucky Spencer." Lulu said and then got up again and moved away from the couch, but turned to face Dante. "I know my Brother and I know he won't forgive me for this"
