Name: Lucas Hemingway

Summary: Why was Luc so invested in finding out the truth behind the patient's injuries?

*INSPIRED BY LAST TUESDAYS EPISODE*

Pairings: Luc/Eddi

It had been a while since Eddi had even thought about Comoxidan, Luc had helped her through it, and without him she felt she would be stuck in a relationship with a man she didn't love.

We need to talk, Roof, Ten minutes, I'll be waiting, L

Eddi stared at the paper in her hand. Surely he could have just told her that? Oh no Mister Hemingway had a problem with saying what he really means doesn't he?

''Just say what you mean''

Sacha's words drifted through Luc's mind as he stood looking over the town, the place where they met, ''Just tell her damn it Hemingway!'' he yelled at himself

''Tell her what?'' Eddi asked

Luc turned to be greeted with a hint of a smirk from his favourite nurse

''Sit'' Look motioned towards the step

Eddi's eyes widened as she obeyed quietly

''You're going to be Mad, and you're going to want to hit me and hurt me but, I have to say this because I can't lie to you anymore'' Luc said quietly

''Okay'' Eddi nodded

''So I'm just going to say this and…'' Luc started

''Spit it out Luc''

''My name is Detective Lucas Hemingway, I'm an undercover police officer working with the government to make sure the NHS are doing their job properly''

''I…''Eddi's eyes filled wit tears

''Those months I was gone, was because my boss pulled me out, said I was getting too invested in the case, too invested with you. I came back because I really can't be without you, I quit my job''

''Luc, you've operated on people! You could have killed them!'' Eddi barked

''I'm medically trained Eddi, their not stupid''

''You betrayed me! You lied to me, and you expect me just too just fall back into bed with you just because, for once in your perfetic life you actually told the truth!'' Eddi shouted poking him in the chest harshly

''Well there is another small matter which I think you would largely benefit from'' Luc said calmly

''Oh and what's that Detective Hemingway? Got a wife and kids at home have you?''

''Don't be stupid, I've lost everything, my career was my life''

''So…'' Eddi shrugged

Luc's hand reached down and stroked Eddi's cheek she flinched but then relaxed as he wiped away her angry tears away

''I don't care, because it was worth it, Sacha told me to say what I'm feeling, Whenever you're close to me Eddi, it's all I want, you're all I want… I love you Eddi McKee''

Eddi smiled reaching up and pressing her lips to his roughly as they held each other lovingly

Pulling back Luc placed a chaste kiss on Eddi's nose

Eddi smiled ''that better not be another Lie, Detective Hemingway''

It was very short, sorry. Hope you liked it

I don't own Holby city or its characters!
