Falling Into Place
Disclaimer: I do not own them.
It had now been almost a month since Lu had asked Peter to help her raise the baby. Lu was on cloud nine as she walked down RWHC's hallway, every inch of her body was glowing. She walked into her office where she found Peter sitting with a newspaper in his hand.
"hey"
"hey, I've got great news"
"yeah?" she asked taking a seat beside him.
"yeah, I found an apartment"
"you did, where?"
"It's two blocks away from the hospital on Clinton Drive, it has three bedrooms, two baths, a kitchen, a dining room, a living room and a balcony, sounds great does'nt it?"
"perfect but, how much is rent?"
"six hundred a month plus security deposit, what do you say Lu, is that going to be our new home?"
"well"
"come on, it's in a good neighborhood and close to the school and the hospital"
"well, alright, I'd love to live there with you"
"great, I'm gonna make the call"
"okay, I'm going over to talk to Dana"
"okay"
Lu walks out the door and across to Dana's office, passing Nick who came from the direction she was heading. As she approached the door to knock, it was suddenly opened by Dana.
"Dana, can we talk?"
"of course"
Lu reached foward and buttoned Dana's shirt
"better"
"sorry, was I giving you a free show?"
"no, it's not that, it's just you were giving everyone a free show"
Dana walked back into her office, followed by Lu.
Dana took a seat on the couch, "so what's on your mind?"
"Well, it's about Peter."
"what about him?"
He's been there for me alot during the past few months and he's going to help me raise the baby, he found this great new, affordable apartment for us to live in and, and,
"what?"
"I'm scared"
"why? everything sounds perfect, unless you're afraid you're falling for him?"
"that's just it, I've already fell"
"well, I don't think you have anything to worry about there, he's obviously fell for you too"
"I know, I'm just don't want to hurt him"
Dana got up from her seat and went over to Lu
"I think you're afraid, of opening up to him because of your rape but, Lu, he understands everything you've been through and he'll wait for you until the end of time"
Lu smiled, Dana had given her the confidence she needed to hear.
Peter opened the door to the apartment, Lu entered first, followed by Marc, she walked around the large empty area and then into the hallway. Marc went to check out the balcony and Peter caught up with Lu.
"you like?"
"like?, Peter, I love it"
She opened the door in front of her, it was a bedroom with a wooden floor and soft purple walls, she walked in and over to the large viewing window and looked out.
"hey, there's the roof of the hospital"
"where?" he asked walking over behind her
"right there" she pointed to the building
"great view"
she walked around the room
"I think this room would be perfect for the baby"
"absolutely"
She walked out of the room and pushed open the door in front of her, it was marine blue with gray carpet, Marc walked up behind her.
"this is my room"
"oh really?"
"yeah, it just screams Marc, don't ya think?"
"okay, check it out, I'm going to look at the rest of the place"
Lu and Peter walked down the hall and into the door at the end of the hallway. It had two windows, wooden floors and soft cream walls, she walked in and opened the closet door.
"wow, walk in"
Peter opened the door on the otherside of the room.
"bathroom"
"great, I love it, this can be our room"
"our room?" he asked
"yeah, unless you'd rather share a room with Marc or the baby?"
"no, it's just"
"what?"
"nothing, let's go sign the papers"
"alright".
It had been a week and they were now offically moved in. They were now working on the baby's room.
"I think the crib should go on the left wall, right there in the middle"
Peter and Marc picked the crib up and moved it"
"perfect, now the rocking chair should go in front of the window"
Marc picked it up and moved it
"the changing table looks better on the right"
they picked up and moved it as Lu scanned the room
"the dresser's good where it's at and the swing should be pushed back a little"
Peter moved the swing, "how does everything look now?"
"amazing".
Later that night, Peter and Lu sat on the couch watching tv together.
"Peter?"
"yeah?"
"we only have like two and a half more months and we don't even have a name picked out"
"well, let's start now"
"okay, give me some suggestions"
"um, Sashca, Rachel, Lourdez, Skyler, Raleigh, Grace.
"Oh, I like Rachel"
"what are yours?"
"ah, Delaney, Ella, Alexia, Claudia, Rayne and Abby"
"all great choices"
"yeah but, the hard part is narrowing down to two"
"that alone could take two and a half months".
Please Review!
Thanks, Lola.
