R&R.-UPDATE EDITED. please reread/please kindly review

21. Chapter 19

Chapter 19 "2 guys for Michelle?"

(I am fast-forwarding it 2 months for storyline purposes. Elizabeth is now 5 months pregnant. Michelle is 7 months pregnant)

***At Kelly's***

Liz: (sighs) "Well, I'm off! See you guys later!"

Tammy: "See you. Remember now, rest."

Liz: "I will."

Melody: "We're gonna make sure you follow doctor's orders."

Taylor: "Bye."

(Elizabeth goes upstairs. Michelle then comes into Kelly's & sits at a table. Melody goes to her)

Melody: "What will it be?"

Michelle: "Apple pie and some milk, please."

Melody: "Okey-dokey!"

(Elizabeth unlocks her apartment door & goes in)

Liz: (sighs) "Gonna feel good to get some rest."

(Lucky comes out of the bathroom)

Lucky: "Hey, beautiful."

Liz: (jumps back a little and turns around to face Lucky) "Oh! You scared me!"

Lucky: (chuckles) "Sorry."

Liz: "Shouldn't you be at work?"

Lucky: "Oh, uh, got the rest of the afternoon off."

Liz: "Hmm. What are you doing home?"

Lucky: (smiles) "Wanted to take care of my beautiful, pregnant wife."

(He starts to massage her shoulder)

Liz: "That feels good."

Lucky: "Good."

(After a few minutes, he takes his hands off & gently taps them)

Lucky: "Now, draw yourself a nice hot bath & when you get done & come out, I'll have supper waiting."

Liz: "Mmm. Sounds like a plan."

Lucky: "I even called the hospital to set up an appointment for our 1st ultrasound."

Liz: "When?"

Lucky: "Friday at 1pm. Right after lunch."

Liz: "Hmmm…two days away."

Lucky: (smiling) "I can't wait to hear our baby's first heartbeat."

Liz: "You can't? Me either."

Lucky: "What are you hoping for?"

Liz: "As long as it's healthy. That's all that matters."

Lucky: "Me too. Now, draw yourself a bath."

Liz: "Ok."

(They kiss. Elizabeth then takes her robe & her nightgown with her in the bathroom. Lucky then goes to the freezer & takes out pork shops. He then gets a can of corn, & starts to make everything. Just then, the phone rings. Lucky answers it)

Lucky: "Hello?"

Nicholas: "Hey, bro."

Lucky: "Hey. What's up?"

Nicholas: "Do you have any idea where Michelle is?"

Lucky: "Mmm…no. Why would I?"

Nicholas: "Well, she was supposed to meet me at Kelly's and she never showed."

Lucky: "I haven't seen her since my wedding night. Sorry."

Nicholas: "Thanks anyway."

(Nicholas and Lucky hang up. Lucky is almost finished with supper & sets everything out on the table. Liz comes out of the bathroom in her robe)

Liz: (sniffs) "Mmm! Smells good!"

Lucky: "It's almost done."

Liz: "Ok!"

(Lucky finishes supper. He sets the plates)

Lucky: "Hope you like it."

Liz: "I always love it."

(They both dish up their plates & start eating. At Luke's, Michelle goes out of her apartment and heads downstairs)

Michelle: (sighs) "It is so boring in this town."

(Michelle walks into the bar while when she's downstairs and a guy notices her and goes up to her)

Man: "Hey, girl, want to play pool?"

Michelle: "No, thanks."

Man: "Okay." (Noticing her belly) "Whoa! How far along are you?"

Michelle: "7 months."

Man: "Whoever the father is, he's real lucky."

Michelle: (whispers) "Yeah, if the father was only who I want it to be."

Man: "What was that?"

Michelle: "Nothing. Are you from here at all?"

Man: "Sorta."

Michelle: "Sorta? What does that mean?"

Man: "Passing through town. You?"

Michelle: "Same here."

Man: "You better snuggle up in some warm covers in your condition."

Michelle: (smirks) "Don't remind me."

Man: "Of what?"

Michelle: "Let me put it to you this way, I'm sorry, what's your name?"

Man: "Travis. You?"

Michelle: "Michelle. If it was up to me, I wouldn't be pregnant. But I'm stuck with this kid."

Travis: "Can I get you anything?"

Michelle: "Just some water, please."

(Travis goes to the counter. A guy at the counter gives Travis some water. He gives the water to Michelle)

Michelle: "Thank you."

Travis: "You're welcome."

(Nicholas then walks in & notices Michelle. He goes to her)

Nicholas: (kinda angrily) "Michelle, what are you doing here?"

Michelle: (drinking some water) "Just chatting. You?"

Nicholas: (scoffs) "Trying to find you!"

Michelle: (jokingly) "Oh, that's so sweet!" (to Nicholas) "How often are you this nice?"

Nicholas: "Say goodbye! We're going."

Michelle: "And what if I don't want to?"

Nicholas: "Trust me. You'll want to."

Travis: "She's having fun here, aren't you, Michelle?"

Michelle: "Yeah, actually, I am."

Nicholas: (grabbing Michelle) "Too bad."

(Nicholas grabs Michelle & heads out. They go to Nicholas' place)

Nicholas: (angrily) "Do you have ANY idea what you were doing back at the club?"

Michelle: "Yeah, I was having a good time with that guy, Travis, back there."

Nicholas: "Do you know what guys there are like?"

Michelle: "Well, he wasn't one of them! Why do you care anyway?"

Nicholas: "I thought we were friends!"

Michelle: "Yeah, well, so did I! But I don't know if I want to anymore!"

Nicholas: "And why is that?"

Michelle: "Because you grabbed a pregnant woman out of a club like that. And do I need to remind you that I live there!"

Nicholas: "Yeah, well, you're staying here tonight!"

Michelle: "Says who?"

Nicholas: "Says me!"

(They then stare at each other. Back at Emily's house, the phone rings, which Emily gets)

Emily: "Hello?"

Max: "Emily? Hey!"

Emily: "Hey! What's up?"

Max: "Nothing much. You?"

Emily: "Just studying for a test that we have tomorrow."

Max: "What? Pre-Algebra? That's stuff is easy!"

Emily: "Maybe for you it is."

Max: "I could tutor you, if you want?"

Emily: "No, I don't want to bother you."

Max: "You didn't bother me with it before."

Emily: "I'll-I'll consider it. Thanks."

Max: "Okay."

(They hang up the phone. Back at Nicholas' house, Michelle and Nicholas are staring at each other & are about to kiss when Michelle pulls back)

Michelle: "S-So, uh, um, where do I sleep since I guess I'm spending the night here?"

Nicholas: "You can sleep in my room on my bed."

Michelle: "Where-where will you sleep?"

Nicholas: "I have some extra bedrooms. I'll sleep in one of them."

Michelle: "Okay, then. G-Goodnight."

Nicholas: "Goodnight, Michelle."

(Michelle heads upstairs. Nicholas gets ready for bed. He goes to sleep in one of the spare rooms. Michelle notices the room where Nicholas is in is open a little. She peaks inside. She then walks by him & leans toward him)

Michelle: "I shouldn't have pulled back. I DID want to kiss you, Nicholas."

(She leans back & goes back to her room)
