*slaps own hands at not posting sooner*

Only a short one cause I want to do a flipped one of Myles/Jack and Sue/Lucy happening at the same time

Lucy sat in the bed as she tried to figure out who this woman was spending time with the man she was destined to be with but she had no luck the voice was unknown to her and suddenly the anger and sadness began to build inside her but she couldn't decide who she was more angry with was it herself for not talking and calling him sooner, was it Myles for betraying and lying to her, telling her he was in love with her one minute and dining and spending time with some unknown tart just a few days later or was she mad at Jack for building her hopes up and practically convincing her that he missed her and she needed him. Yes that was it she was furious at Jack and right now all she wanted to do was yell at him and have Myles hold her. Turning over slightly in the bed she hid herself away from the nurse's gaze and broke down crying out all the emotions that had wanted release since she woke up just four days ago.

She had been crying for so long that she exhausted herself and had fallen asleep waking the following morning to find Jack sat next to Sue at the side of bed

"Hey sleepy head" Sue half smiled as Lucy came round

"Hi" she said groggily, and her voice slightly hoarse from crying

"You ok?" Sue asked seeing how red her eyes were

"No, not really but I suppose you know the reason why" she snapped while glaring at Jack

"Lucy I haven't got a clue, are you ok? Did you call Myles?"

"Yes I called him! And now I have a question for you" She replied once again glaring at Jack "Who was she?"

Jack sat and looked at her confused by her mood and the entire conversation "Her? Her who?" he asked hoping to finally make sense of the situation

"Her that was in Myles' house, that her"

"Lucy I really have no idea who you are talking about" Jack stated trying to reassure her

"Don't give me that crap Jack; you're Jack Hudson mighty team leader I know you know who she is so just tell me" she snapped before turning her head away from the couple

"Lucy I have no idea, he hasn't mentioned her whoever she is"

Sue turned back to Jack and looked at him "Sweetheart can you give us a minute?" she asked him

"Sure honey I'll go and get us some coffee" he replied, before kissing her cheek, patting her swollen tummy and leaving the room.

"Jack" Sue called out before following him out of the room

"What's wrong babe?" He asked when they were back in the corridor

"Swear to me you have no idea who this woman is"

"Babe" Jack replied placing a hand on her swollen tummy "I swear on baby peanuts life, I have no idea who she is" he replied looking her directly in the eyes

"OK, then do me favour"

"For you babe anything"

"Go and find out" Sue replied causing Jack to leave the hospital and for Sue to re-enter Lucy's room, seeing that Lucy still faced way from her Sue placed a hand on her shoulder "Hey come on its just us girls"

Slowly but surely Lucy turned back around and Sue saw the tears on her face

"Oh sweetheart" Sue said before moving up to sit on the edge of Lucy's bed to hold her as she cried

After a few moments Lucy stopped crying and turned her attention back to Sue

"I'm sorry" she spoke and signed

"It's ok Luce, now come on what's wrong" Sue asked even though she guessed what the answer would be but she also knew Lucy needed to unload everything she was keeping bottled up before she had another panic attack

"It's just I'm scared Sue, really scared"

"Scared of what"

"Everything, being alone forever because I can't give anyone a child. I'm scared of having to learn to walk again. I feel like I'm never going to be able to do it Sue, Richard is pushing me so hard but I can't feel and don't feel it working, I can't feel anything happening to my legs there is still no sense or feeling there but more than anything I'm scared of losing him Sue"

Sue moved Lucy closer to her and held on to her best friend as all the grief and emotion over the events of the past week came pouring from her in one swoop, Sue could feel the vibrations of her sobs through her arms, could feel the tears from her eyes dropping into her hand and at that moment wished she could just take her pain away. After a few moments Sue felt Lucy sag against her frame and as she looked down towards her could see she had actually cried herself to sleep, so Sue got up off the bed and allowed Lucy to sink down and rest while she read the magazine she had bought, she needed to stay right now, her best friend still needed her.

A few hours later Lucy woke to see her friend still sat in the chair trying to get comfy

"you didn't need to stay" she commented once Sue looked at her

"Do you really think I would leave my best friend here alone the state she was in, never in a million years"

"Thank you, but I'm ok"

"No you're not Luce, look at you, you're shaking"

Glacing down at her hands Lucy watched as they shook with a mixture of nervousness and anger at the woman on the phone

"I just..Its just"

"I know Luce and you will soon, I've sent Jack to find out what's going on, if anyone can he can, he's going to call me when he knows more and I'll be here no matter what happens Luce, but I'm sure you have nothing to worry about"

"If its all so innocent, why was she answering his home phone, that's what scares me the most, the fact that whoever she was, he knows her well enough to let that happen"

"I don't know Luce, but how about we take your mind off it for a while and do a few of these trashy Cosmo quizzes"

"Sure" Lucy laughed

And for the next few hours the two best friends sat in a small white medical room filling in quizzes one of them wondering who the woman was and the other wondering what the heck was she up to and hoping that she hadn't charmed Myles into giving up on Lucy.
