Someone To Lean On

Lu laid on the cold exam table, she was now four months pregnant and this was the day she had been waiting for. The doctor entered the room and everything seemed to go in slow motion. He turned on the ultrasound machine and ran it over her stomach to see where the baby was located. He then picked up an alcohol prep to sterlize the skin. Lu lay there with a thousand thought's running through her head, he picked up the needle and inserted it into her uterus, but she did'nt feel it, all she felt was numbness.
The sun was shinning brightly through the clinic as she walked down the steps and into her office, knowing that the hardest days were still ahead. The door opened behind her.
"Hi"
Lu turned around at the familiar voice, "Hi"
"how did everything go?"
"okay" she took a seat behind her desk
"hey, um, do you want to get something to eat later on?"
She smiled, the first smile he had seen in weeks.
"yeah, tha's sounds great, my shift's over at 7"
"I'll meet you in the lobby at 7"
"okay"
Peter walked out the door and down the hallway.
It was 7:00, Lu stood in the lobby of the clinic, looking out the door, Peter softly walked up behind her.
"hello beautiful" he handed her a single red rose.
She turned around to face him.
"thank you"
She stood there for several seconds just smiling at him. Then it hit her, it had been right there in front of her face for the longest time, she had a little torch for Peter and apparently he had one for her but, she was'nt sure until this very moment. He was everything she wanted in a man, he was loving, caring, supportive and gentle. Was it possible she could be dreaming?
Not a chance, it was real, for the rose to his hand taking her's and walking out the door together. However said time was everything anyway? So she was pregnant with somebody else's child, it was by choice and Peter being a good friend through this difficult time did make them grow closer together.
Lu walked down the steps, around the corner and into the clinic with a manilla envelope in her right hand, Dana seen her come down the hallway from across the room and watched her walk over to where she and Lana where sitting.
"Moment of truth"
Dana nodded as Lana pulled a chair out for Lu to sit down. After she was seated she took a deep breath and flipped the envelope over and began to open it. But she could'nt do it, the suspence was killing her but, she did'nt have the strength to open it.
She handed it over to Dana who had a serious look on her face, she never said a word, she just took it out of her hand and quietly sat there for moments, waiting for Lu to adjust. When Lu looked up, Dana knew she was ready.
Dana opened the back and pulled the information out, quickly scanning over it. She never showed an emotion, she looked down at the paper and then back up to Lu.
