Life Starts Now

This fic was loosely inspired by an idea my sister had and so I dedicate it to her...I don't own GH but as always I do own my unique take on everything...read review and enjoy...

The foursome arrived at the Metro Court and were immediately greeted by Scott.

"Hi princess," Scott said giving Serena a hug, "son."

He shook Logan's hand and eyed Georgie and Spinelli.

"Dad," Logan said, "you know Georgie Jones right." Scott nodded.

"Nice to see you again Mr. Baldwin," Georgie said smiling

"Nice seeing you again too," Scott said, "though shouldn't you be spending the Holliday with your own family?"

Georgie smiled before looking at Logan.

"You never told him," Georgie whispered.

"Told me what," Scott asked his son curiously.

"Dad," Logan said, "Georgie is my girlfriend."

The smile that appeared on Scott's face told Logan he approved.

"Let me guess Serena," Scott said, "that freak show is your boyfriend."

"Damian is not a freak show," Serena said, "he's really matured since we first started to see each other."

"And how long ago was that," Scott asked.

"Late September," Serena muttered under her breath.

Scott nodded and knew he would later have to sit the young hacker down for a man to man later that evening.

"Anyway," he said, "Lucy and your sister are inside."

"Wait," Logan said, "her sister, I thought you said my other sister Karen was killed in a car accident."

"Sadly Karen was killed," Scott said, "but Serena has another sister."

Both boys looked at the young blonde.

"Her name is Kristina," Serena said, "Lucy adopted her...she's not my sister by blood but we grew up together she's twelve and is looking forward to meeting both of you guys."

Logan and Spinelli nodded as the foursome headed toward the dinning room.

"Not so fast," Scott said grabbing Spinelli by the collar.

Serena glared at her father.

"Go on," Spinelli said.

Meanwhile at the mansion Milo and Lulu sat close together as they sat at the table. The family had finally managed to have a turkey dinner on the table that wasn't burned, stolen, eaten by the dogs, given to the less fortunate, or any of the countless other reasons that the family was forced to have pizza every year though there was still a couple pizza's on the table for traditions sake.

"I see you finally managed to get a Turkey on the table," came a familiar sounding voice from behind Lulu.

"I thought you said he wasn't coming," Milo whispered.

Lulu playfully slugged him telling him to play nice with her step brother.

"Son," Tracy said smiling, "so Hollywood not what you thought and you've come back to us."

"Wouldn't you like that," Dillon said, "but no mom it's the holydays and I thought I would spend them with the family."

"So," Monica asked, "does this mean you're staying till the New Year."

"Actually," Dillon said, "I leave tomorrow, but I plan on spending two weeks here for Christmas and New Years."

Smiles and comments came from around the table as Dillon took a seat. When he sat was when he noticed his step sister's date.

"So you wound up choosing Milo huh," Dillon said, "I would of thought you'd be with Spinelli."

Lulu smiled.

"Spinelli will forever be one of my dearest friends," Lulu said, "but as a couple we could of never worked out...anyway I was with Logan first but you know what they say you need to kiss a few frogs before you find your prince."

Lulu gave Milo a kiss on the cheek which caused Dillon to roll his eyes.

"Besides," Lulu continued, "Logan is so much happier with Georgie then he ever was with me."

Dillon tried not to spit out the liquid in his mouth at hearing this.

"Georgie and LOGAN," Dillon said trying not to laugh, "You and Milo...next you're going to tell me Spinelli wound up with Maxie."

"Serena Baldwin actually," Lulu said, "Maxie is still with Coop."

Dillon nodded and rolled his eyes.

'Man things have hanged.' He thought.

--

Serena, Logan, and Georgie entered the dinning room and an older woman immediately gave Serena a hug.

"So how's school been Pumpkin Head," Lucy said.

Serena rolled her eyes at hearing her childhood nickname.

"Fine," Serena said.

Lucy then looked at Logan and embraced him.

"You must be Logan," Lucy said, "I've heard so much about you."

"What kinds of things," Logan asked curiously.

"Good things," Lucy said, "don't worry."

Logan nodded and Lucy turned to Georgie.

"Georgie Jones," Lucy said, "look at you all grown up."

"It's nice to see you again Lucy," Georgie said.

"I hear your Serena's roommate," Lucy said, "you girls keeping out of trouble."

Georgie and Serena nodded.

"So," Lucy asked, "any guys."

Logan smirked a bit.

"Georgie," Lucy said, "you and Logan."

"Yea huh," Georgie said.

"Dad doesn't know," Logan said.

"Why not," Lucy said, "I'm sure he'd love you dating a great girl like the young Miss Jones here."

Logan nodded as a young girl with long dark curls came to the table and hugged the blonde.

"I've missed you," Kristina whispered to her sister.

"I miss you too," Serena said.

"So then next semester are you going to transfer back," Kristina asked.

"I don't miss you that much," Serena said, "but I miss you allot."

Kristina nodded and looked at Logan.

"So is this Logan or Damian," Kristina said, dragging out the second name in a sing song voice.

"I'm Logan," Logan said, "your brother I guess."

Kristina hugged him.

"I've always wanted a big brother," Kristina said, "Serena told me you were from Texas, can you ride a horse I've always wanted to learn to ride a horse."

"I wouldn't go signing me up for any rodeos or anything," Logan said, "but I'm ok...maybe I'll take you some time."

"I'd like that," Kristina said.

"So," Lucy said turning now to Serena, "who is this Damian and why haven't you told me of him."

"Damian is my boyfriend," Serena said, "Dad is giving him a talk though now so god knows if he'll be staying with us."

Meanwhile outside-

"Spinelli," Scott said, "what are your intentions with my daughter."

The young man took a deep breath before opening his mouth.

"by intentions you mean what exactly," Spinelli said, "if you mean have we...well you know then no and I don't intend to unless she wants and even then I'd be scared to death having only made love one time previously and not under the best of circumstances."

Scott nodded. He liked how this boy, despite how weird he came off to be, was a real gentleman and respected his daughter.

"And the future," Scott asked, "what about that."

"Do you mean my plans on the future with your lovely daughter or my own personal plans in general," Spinelli asked.

"Your plans," Scott said.

Spinelli nodded.

"well you know I rule cyberspace but after taking a year off of school to work with Stone Cold...I mean Jason I though what could I do with just being Tec support for the rest of my life, and mob Tec support at that."

Scott nodded.

"don't get me wrong I love Sto-Jason, he's a great friend and all but I needed more in my life," Spinelli said, "so now I'm back at school taking some web design classes which are surprisingly challenging as well as advertising classes and well I don't know maybe I'll go to the city and be a big shot ad executive one day who knows."

Scott smiled at him and gave him a pat on the back. For someone as offbeat as Spinelli he had a good head on his shoulders and was a worthy boyfriend of his little girl. And with that he led the young man into the dinning hall where the rest of the family was already eating.

--

Milo and Lulu where done with there meal and along with Dillon they were sitting under the stars in Lila's rose garden telling stories.

"Kidnapped," Dillon said.

Lulu nodded.

"But in rescuing her from Cody," Lulu said, "I think that was what brought us all together as the friends we are now."

Dillon nodded.

"You know Spinelli and the formerly Unworthy One are now roommates," Milo said.

"Well he goes by Damian now most of the time," Lulu said, "and surprisingly more so then not uses people's real names."

Dillon was shocked.

"I wish I could see this for myself," Dillon said, "though I'd probably die of shock."

"You'll see on Christmas," Lulu said, "along with Georgie and Logan."

"Now those two I HAVE to see," Dillon said.

The trio spent the rest of the evening talking and reminiing of the past good times and bad as well a planning some fun activities for winter break.

--

After meeting Lucy and Kristina and answering a barrage of questions Spinelli felt like part of the family.

"You had a pet duck," Spinelli said shocked as Serena was telling about growing up.

Serena nodded as the family continued to tell Spinelli and Logan about the past and the vast history that Lucy once had in town.

"So what was it like to have Tracy as your mother in law," Lucy asked Georgie.

"If I didn't love Dillon so much back then I don't know how I could have managed," Georgie said, "but I sure gave her hell."

Lucy smiled and high fived the young girl.

"So she's married to Luke now," Lucy said, "stranger things have happened."

"Like my boy over here with Spencer's daughter," Scott said, "thankfully he's come to his scenes."

Logan shook his head.

"You know," Logan said, "it was once Lulu and I were splitsville that daddy dearest over here reached out to me...was that just a coincidence."

"It was actually," Scott said, "weather Lulu was with you or not I wanted to be on good terms with you because Serena was coming."

Logan nodded.

He loved the crazy family that was thrust upon him and was glad that Georgie was by his side. Spinelli also enjoyed being part of a family. When it was just him and his granny the holidays weren't that big at all. However now he knew the truth, who his family was who, the man he was becoming was...and he only hoped that next thanksgiving would be filled with just as much family love. Hell he hoped that by Christmas he'd be with his real family.

"I would love to stay," Serena said getting up," but I need to go home and crash so that I can be ready for the shopping that mom and I have planed tomorrow."

Scott rolled his eyes.

'What is it with women and sales,' he thought giving his daughter a hug and shaking Spinelli's hand.

"Damian," Scott said causing Spinelli to turn around, "we should get together sometime."

"I'd like that," Spinelli said.

The young couple left with Georgie and Logan soon following.

Scott turned to Lucy and Kristina and smiled. Even though he wasn't present in Serena's life as much as he wanted to be and wasn't present in Logan's at all it was in that moment that he realized that despite all that his kids turned out pretty damn good.
