Lucy woke up and walked into the kitchen and yawned. She opened the freezer door to see what John and her had to cook for dinner. Lucy got out some chicken and set it on the side to defrost. She walked across the kitchen and switched the coffee machine on.

She stared at the machine wishing it to go faster, it seemed like hours before enough coffee was produced for three cups. She picked up the cups and walked into the spare room where Carol was sleeping.

"Carol, Carol?" She whispers. "Umm!" "Coffee!" Carol opened her eyes and just stared at Lucy for a while, confused. She had forgotten she was at John's and Lucy's. "Oh thanks Lucy, what time is it?" "Just after 6pm." "Oh god, 8 hours sleep, I think that's the most sleep I have had in years." Lucy chuckled. "I just be waking John, see you in a minute."

Lucy walked into her and John's room and set the cups down. She walked up to the bed and stared down at John laid peacefully in bed. She didn't want to wake him, but she knew if her got to much sleep, he got moody. She slowly climbed on the bed and started to jump up and down and couldn't stop laughing.

John started to groan it was obvious to him someone was trying to wake him, but his mind wonder how? 'Because it feels like I'm in an earthquake, oh my god an earthquake…okay slow down, can't be an earthquake were in Chicago.'

John groaned more and started to move his arms trying to get Lucy to stop jumping. Lucy was getting tried from jumping so she stopped, and fell down on the bed next to John. John was now awake but he still had his eyes closed. An out of breath Lucy was startled when John wrapped his arms round her, she didn't think she had managed to wake him up.

"Why did you do that?" John asked Lucy in a sleepy voice, "Maybe because its time to get up, and jumping on the bed seemed like a fun way to wake you." "For you or me?" "What do you think?" "For you." They both smiled and laughed and at the same time they rose in the bed to a sitting position.

"So we better get up and entertain, last time I checked we had our first real guest, that is of course not including family." "Yeah well I need to start dinner and you can entertain our guest." "Sounds okay to me." John said as he placed his arms behind his neck and fell back down to a laying position.

*************

They all had finished dinner and getting ready before they headed towards the hospital. "Oh John don't forget the pictures, I'm sure Kerry would like to see them." Lucy shouted to him from the front door. "Which ones wedding or honeymoon?"

"Bring Both!"

*************

John, Lucy and Carol walked though the doors and Jerry greeted them. "Carter, Carol, your in early. Lucy it's a surprise to see you, John said you were on holiday yesterday to Weaver." "I came back early realising I had something to do before I started working again." "Well you must have gone somewhere nice to get a tan like that!" "Yes I did!" Jerry had expected a more in depth answer from Lucy; it wasn't like her to cut her answers short.

"Well Jerry sorry to break up your conversion, but Lucy and I need to speck to Kerry. Do you know where she is?" Jerry looked at them carefully; he had gut feeling that there something going on. They rarely asked to see Kerry together when they are both working together. But here they were asking for Kerry in the their spare time, and one of them was still on holiday. "Yeah she's in curtain area 3." "Thanks!" They both said at the same time, and walked towards curtain area 3. That's when Jerry noticed they were holding hands.

Jerry looked over at Carol, who didn't seem to be shocked to she them like that together. "Carter and Lucy are dating?" Carol considered Jerry's question she needed to answer carefully, and not let on John and Lucy were married until they perform their little show down. When Lucy left to go home. "Umm, yes and no!" "What's that suppose to mean?" A wicked smile came across Carol's face, "Well Jerry, that's for me to know and you to find out?"

*************

Kerry just stared at John and Lucy, 'did she just hear them right. Not only had they starting seeing each other during the summer, they had got married.' Once Kerry got over the shocked she grinned, and John was confused.

"Your not angry at us?" "A little but what the hell can I do about it. Hospital states no romantic involvement while on an assignment. Of you both are defiantly not assigned to each other, because Lucy's not at university right now. Of course Donald maybe a little angrier, but he get over it. When he see how much in love you two are, and that it doesn't affect you two working in the same department. It won't will it?" "Don't worry Kerry me and John have discussed is, totally professional at work, except for breaks and lunches." "Well that sound reasonable, so tomorrow John why don't you bring in the photos."

"Your wish is my command." He picked up a carrier bag and handed it to Kerry. "Our Wedding and Honeymoon pictures, but we're still waiting for the professional pictures. So the Wedding pictures are only the ones friends and family have gave to us," explained John.

Once Kerry finished looking though the pictures she was crying, "Oh if these pictures are nothing compared to the professional ones you be very lucking. These pictures are great, you two look glorious, don't think I've seen so many pictures who you can tell the couple are deeply in love."

*************

John walked Lucy to the double doors of the ER and she turned to look at him, "So see you about 9am, oh and tell Carol she can stay as long as she wants." John slowly started to move his hands up her arms. "Don't worry Luce I will." His hands were now on her shoulders and Lucy quietly moaned as he slowly rubbed his thumbs along her bare shoulders. She felt like jumping at him and not care they were in the ER; of course they had planned to kiss as they said goodbye. But she never knew she could be so aroused, by one touch, because she knew she was being watched.

Lucy moved her arms around his neck and started to stoke the back of his neck and play with his hair. John closed his eyes, trying his best not to wither by her touch. Then they both stared deeply in each other's eyes and they both pulled each other at the same time, and their lips touched with great passion.

All the people at the desk went quiet, then slowly the silence became infectious as the patents in the chairs turned and were stunned by the passion they saw.

Chuni walked out of the exam one and stood in front of Jerry and blocked his view, he quickly stood up so he can't miss a thing. "Why are you quiet? What are you looking at?" Jerry couldn't answer Chuni for some reason he voice didn't work, he jut pointed in the direction he was staring in.

Chuni turned and saw what they were starring at she was stunned but she didn't go quiet; all she did was shrieked at the sight of John and Lucy kissing.

They pulled apart and glanced over at the reception desk, they managed to shock them, but then realised not just the staff but also the patients. Because you only could hear mobiles phones ringing, and no one answering them, and the sound of Chuni Shrieking.

They walked up to the desk and smiled at Carol, "I know you don't want another shook guys but unfortunately it's unavoidable." John took a deep breath in and the others were bracing themselves for what John had to say.

"Well from about a month ago, Lucy is no longer known as Knight." They all looked confused and Lucy stepped in to finish the sentence. "Because I am now officially known as Carter." And dead silence filled the air again, and then you heard the sound of someone falling to the floor after her had fainted and Chuni started shrieking again.

Well that's the end of the Behind Closed doors series… Unless you wish to read more into the relationship. Please send feed back to erfanfiction@hotmail.com
