Tony pulled up to the school and saw Alex talking to some friends. "Hey, Alex. Let's go!" he yelled rolling the window down.
Alex glanced over and smiled. "Hey, Tony."
"Hey kiddo." Tony laughed.
"We going to go see my mom?" Alex asked throwing his backpack into the car and hopped in.
"Yeah we are." Tony answered as he drove off.

Luka watched Abby walk out of the ER into the ambulance bay. What she said just then didn't sound like her, so he knew he had to go say something. He walked out to the ambulance bay. "I love you Abby." He told her grabbing her waist to stop her in mid-stride.
Abby looked up at him. "I love you too," she told him taking a deep breath.
Luka bent down and kissed her.
Alex and Tony were walking up at about the same moment. Alex saw Luka kissing Abby. "So that's why you never come and see my mom and me anymore?" Alex yelled.
Abby looked back and seen Alex and Tony walking up to them, once again she had caused more trouble, "Luka, I think I'm going to go home early."
"Yeah okay, I'll see you later." Luka told her reluctantly letting go of her.
"Yeah," she walked off.
Luka looked at Alex. "Alex…"
"No, Luka. You left me and mom hanging there. Now I know why, you have someone else in your life. You don't care about it anymore."
"That's not even true, Alex. Abby ad I just got together earlier this week. I tried to spend some time with you, but your mom wouldn't let me. I tried."
"Sure you did. Come on Tony, let's get mom and go home."
"Umm, about that. I don't think your mom will be going home tonight." Tony bent down to look at him.
Alex looked at him. "Why?"
"Because something happened, you're mom, me, Luka, Abby, Neela and Ray went out to get something to eat before work and you're mom got hurt."
Alex turned to Luka. "Is that true?"
Luka nodded. "Yeah, but she's fine. She has a broken leg and a broken arm. It could have been much worse, so she's lucky."
"Can I go see her?"
"Yeah. Tony will take you up there."
Alex nodded then ran in, Tony followed him.
Luka looked out the bay where Abby had left from, wanting to badly to go after her. He slowly walked back in and got to work. He started with the little boy with the g-tube. He had to get him in a good place until a family member could come and take him. He wanted to go to Sam and find out what was going on, but he didn't know if it was because of her and plus Alex and Tony were with her.

Abby went to her apartment, where she had a bottle somewhere hidden. She had a bad day and wanted to drink it away. She hadn't been in her apartment since she got out of the hospital and moved in with Luka. She got out a glass and found her bottle and poured some of the vodka into the glass and took a drink sitting down on the couch. She closed her eyes feeling the warm liquid run down her throat. Sam was completely right, she was a drunk, she found comfort in alcohol, she kept drinking it. She didn't really care about anything else as this moment, as of right now she was happy with drinking her vodka.

Alex walked into Sam's room. "Mom…"
Sam looked over and smiled at him. "Hey, how was school?"
"It was good." He went over to her.
"And did you have fun spending the night with your friend?"
"Yeah." He walked over to her and hugged her.
Sam groaned in frustration because she couldn't hug him back yet.
"You okay mom?"
"I'm fine. Tony go tell Neela to get me out of this thing or I will…"
"You will what? Beat us up? That would be kind of hard to do since you can't move and all." Tony laughed some.
"You're not funny!" Sam complained.
"Oh, but I think I am." Tony smirked.
Sam smiled. "Well, I'll just have to page her 911 and blame you for it."
"You can't page her seeing as…"
"Alex would you pick up the phone and…" Sam started.
"Okay, okay, I'll go and get her." Tony got up.
"Good, thank you." Sam smiled at him.
"Whatever." Tony walked out of the room.
"Just take your time, it's not like I have anything else to do." She called after him.
"Okay, thank you!"
Sam laughed, she was starting to fall for him but she was scared to admit it because she didn't want to put herself in the situation to be hurt again.
Alex looked at Sam. "So is Tony going to be around more? Like Luka was?"
Sam looked at him, sorrow in her eyes. "I don't know. I don't want to rush into anything. We'll see though. He might."
"Mom, why has Luka never been coming around?"
"He's been busy Alex."
"He told me you didn't want him around."
"When did you talk to him?"
"I saw him out in the ambulance bay, with Abby, kissing her, but she left. I thought it was because of her."
"Alex, you didn't say anything did you?"
"I yelled at him, wondering if she was why he hadn't been around, but he said you wouldn't let him around."
"Do you have any homework? You need to get that done."
"Mom-"
"No, get your homework done. What do you want to eat? I'll order you something up."
"I'm not hungry."

Luka called Abby to see if she was okay, but there was no answer to the home phone. So he called Abby's cell phone. He got worry when she didn't answer that either. Luka looked around then set the phone down.
Tony walked up. "What's with the worried look?"
"Abby. She's not answering the home phone or her cell phone."
"Well I'm sure she's fine, Luka. She's a big girl you know."
"She was acting weird before she left. She sad something like 'to every end there's a new beginning'. I don't know what that means; she had tears in her eyes and everything. I'm worried." He looked around. "I'm going to go home, I'll be back. I have to find her. Page me if you really need me." He left without letting him answer.
Tony watched him leave then went to go find Neela. "Neela!" He yelled out when he found her.
"What?" She turned around to look at him.
"Sam wants you."
"When doesn't she want me?" She asked.
"Well…"
"Tell her the results isn't back, I'll be up there when they are."
"I'm not going to tell her that and feel her wrath just because you don't want to." Tony looked at her.
"Then tell her whatever you want to tell her."
"Well then if she pages you 911 then just ignore it." He walked away.
"Thanks for the heads up." Neela laughed.
"No, I'm serious she has already threatened to do it and when you don't come into the room and take the immobilizer off, she may just do it." He warned.
"Well then I just won't answer it then."
Tony smiled then walked off.
Sam looked at Tony when he walked back in. "Where is she?"
"In the ER with patients."
"Alex page her." Sam ordered.
Alex jumped up and went to page her.
Tony stood there and watched knowing that Neela wouldn't answer. "So what are you going to do when the results come back and you can't get it off?"
"Oh it'll come off, trust me it will." She promised.
Tony shook his head and laughed. "Good luck with that."
She looked at him. "What do you mean by that?"
"Nothing," he sat down. "Need help with your homework Alex?"
"No thank you."
"Okay."

Luka went into his apartment and looked everywhere for Abby, he called her name. When he didn't find her, he left and went to the park where they always went; when he didn't see her there he really began to worry about her. He pulled his cell phone out and called her again. He slammed his phone shut when she didn't answer. "Abby, where did you go?" He wondered out loud, he stood there and thought about different places. When a thought crossed his mind he figured it was a long shot but it was better than nothing. He hoped that she was at her apartment and safe.
