Decision Making
Disclaimer: I do not own these characters.
Lu sat on the exam table, her legs were swinging over the edge as she impatiently waited for the doctor.
"what's taking forever?" she asked herself.
Not ten seconds later, the doctor walked through the door with a chart in her hand.
"sorry, I'm a little late, I had something to take care of"
Lu smiled, "oh, I'm sure you did"
"well, I did"
"fooling around with loverboy in the supply closet does'nt count as something you had to take care of, Dana"
"we were'nt fooling around in the supply closet"
"sure you were'nt"
"well, we were'nt, it was the lounge, thank you very much".
"ah, you admitted it"
"did not"
"oh, but, you did"
"whatever"
Dana looked over her chart.
"okay, on a more serious note, today we get to do a sonogram and have you decided?"
"decided what?"
"if you want to know the sex of your baby"
"oh, have'nt really thought about it"
"well, hurry up, yes or no?"
"Um, I guess, yeah, I wanna to know"
Dana smiled, "then, I won't keep you in suspence any longer"
"thank you"
Dana layed the chart down and turned on the machine.
"okay, lay back and pull your shirt up"
"okay"
"ready?" Dana asked
"ready"
"this may be a little cold"
Before Lu could say anything, Dana answered herself
"but, you probably knew that"
Dana ran the censor over Lu's stomach, trying to get the best image of the baby.
"okay, right here looks best"
"oh my god, that's my baby, wow"
"it's a girl"
"a girl?"
"yes"
"this is unbelieveable"
Lu walked through the hallway with a huge smile on her face, then she seen Peter come through the doors.
"hey"
"hey, Lu, how are you feeling?"
"my daughter and I are great"
"daughter?, you found out?"
"yeah about an hour ago"
"That's great Lu"
"um, I thought maybe tonight you could come over for dinner"
"sure, I'll be there at 6"
"okay"
It was almost six o'clock, Marc had just came in the door to grab his things.
"hey, Mom"
"Marc, honey, I have some news"
Marc smiled as he walked back out tp the kitchen where she was.
"what's that?"
"you're having a baby sister"
"really, Mom?, that's great, is there anything I can do to help?"
"not right now, Peter's coming over for dinner"
"oh, I gotta get my stuff ready, Dad said he'd be here a little before six".
"okay, honey"
Lu went back to finish preparing their dinner when the doorbell rang. She walked over to the door and opened it.
"hey, Lu, is uh, Marc ready?"
"just about"
"so it's true what they say huh?"
"no, I don't, what do they say?"
"that you're, well, you know, pregnant"
"well, they are quite the observers"
Marc walked out into the living. "Dad, I'm ready"
"okay, lets go"
"bye, Lu"
"yeah, bye"
Marc leaned foward and hugged Lu.
"bye, Mom, I love you"
"I love you too, sweetie"
A few minutes after Marc's departure there was a knock on the door again. Lu went over to answer it, she opened it to see Peter standing there holding a bouquet of flowers.
"wow, Peter"
"beautiful flowers for a beautiful lady"
He handed her the flowers "thank you, their lovely"
Lu stepped out of the doorway and Peter entered the apartment pulling the door shut behind him.
"what's for dinner?"
Lu walked towards the kitchen.
"well, I hope you like chinese"
"sounds good"
They took a seat at the dining room table.
After dinner was over Lu got up and cleared the table while Peter made his way over to the stero system and turned it on, trying to find the perfect music.
There'll be no strings to bind your hands
not if my love can't bind your heart
And there's no need to take a stand
for it was I who chose to start
I see no reason to take me home,
I'm old enough to face the dawn.
Peter took Lu's hand and led her out to the middle of the living room. He wrapped his left arm around her waist and took her hand with his right. They danced together as close as the could.
Just call me angel of the morning, angel
Just touch my cheek before you leave me, baby
Just call me angel of the morning, angel
Then slowly turn away from me
They continued to dance in what felt like slow motion. Lu closed her eye's and enjoyed the security that Peter gave her. Lu thought that maybe she should tell him how she felt and how she wanted him to be involved with this child.
Maybe the sun's light will be dim
So it won't matter anyhow
If morning's echo says we've sinned,
Well, it was what I wanted now
And if we're the victims of the night,
I won't be blinded by the light
Peter on the other hand, never wanted the moment to end, because he wanted to tell Lu how he felt about her.
Just call me angel of the morning, angel
Just touch my cheek before you leave me, baby
Just call me angel of the morning, angel
Then slowly turn away
Lu pulled away from Peter and looked him in the eye's. Then something clicked, she leaned foward at the same time as he did, their lips met and locked together, in a powerful, firework, exploding kiss. Lu felt as if her world was spinning.
I won't beg you to stay with me
Through the tears of the day,
Of the years, baby baby baby
Just call me angel of the morning, angel
just touch my cheek before you leave me, baby
As they slowly pulled apart, Lu whispered softly.
"I want you to help me raise the baby"
Peter had so many thoughts and emotions running through him at that very moment.
"I thought you'd never ask"
