Chapter Four
One Week Later
Turn around
Look at what you see
In her face
The mirror of your dream
Make believe I'm everywhere
I'm hidden in the lines
And written on the pages
Is the answer to a neverending story
Elizabeth stared at herself in the mirror in her room. Alana had sent over the beautiful midnight-blue evening gown a couple days before, insisting that she wear it tonight for the event that was taking place. The fabric clung to every curve and was very sexy in every way. Lucky could hardly control himself at the other end of the room. She turned and stared at her boyfriend, so handsome in his tux. His blue eyes shined brightly as he smiled at her. He seemed so much more loving in the past couple of days. She was happy that the programming was gone.
A knock sounded on the door a second later before they could even think of moving toward one another. Lucky walked to the door and opened it to reveal Zander.
"Hey bro! Lookin' good!"Lucky exclaimed with a smile.
"Back at you, Lucky. Are you two ready to go? We still have to pick up Robin at the airport," Zander said,
"You're right. She's probably impatiently waiting for us right now," Lucky said before turning to Elizabeth. "My lady, your chariot awaits."
"But of course, my love," Elizabeth says with a smile as she takes Lucky's arm and they head out of the room and down the stairs to head out of Kelly's.
Reach the stars
Fly a fantasy
Dream a dream
And what you see will be
Rhymes that keep their secrets
Will unfold behind the clouds
And there upon the rainbow
Is the answer to a neverending story, story
Gia came down the stairs of the cottage dressed in a violet dress that Alana had sent over the day before. Her long dark hair was pulled back from her face using a matching scrunchie that had also come with the dress, Gia had wanted to wear something else, until she had tried on the dress. The dress showed off every single one of her curves, which had immediately attracted Nikolas. He had barely been able to resist taking her and having his way with her.
Nikolas stood by the window, purposely facing away from the stairs as he contemplated what tonight was all about, Everyone would know the truth about what Helena had done to his family and to other families throughout Port Charles. The truth about him. He could still hardly believe that he was a Spencer. But it felt right to him. He had never felt that he was a Cassadine and hearing Alana say it made him feel so free. And also finding out that Zander was his brother helped him to understand so many things. The fact that he had helped Sonny keep AJ away from Michael now madc sense. Michael was family and so was Carly. And he knew a Spencer would do anything to protect their family.
Nikolas turned at that moment and once again had to resist his urges as his eyes fell upon Gia.
"Wow, you look wonderful!" Nikolas exclaimed.
"You don't look so bad yourself," Gia purred as she ran her hands over the lapels of his tuxedo jacket.
Nikolas smiled a helpless smile before he remembered. "We'd better get going. We're supposed to pick up Anna and her family at the train station."
"You're right. We need to get going," Gia said as she grabbed a white shawl and draped it around her shoulders before she and Nikoals hooked arms and headed out the door.
Show no fear
For she may fade away
In your hands
The birth of a new day
Rhymes that keep their secrets
Will unfold behind the clouds
And there upon the rainbow
Is the answer to a neverending story
Neverending story

Neverending story
"Laura, we need to get going!" Luke called upstairs to his wife.
"In a minute!" Laura called from Lulu's room, where she and Leslie were getting the eight year old ready to go. Lulu was excited about tonight. Luke and Laura had already explained to her that she had another older brother. Lulu was happy that she had another big brother.
Laura was dressed in a pure white gown that Alana had sent over that traced every curve of her body, which Laura knew would make Luke drool. Apparently, Alana still knew her cousin well.
Lulu was dressed in a red velvet dress that Alana had also sent over, along with a red barrette for her hair that matched the dress. Lulu thought it was very glamorous.
Leslie was dressed in a light blue dress that Alana had sent over as well. Alana had also sent a note with it to explain the style of the dress. "Just because you're a grandma doesn't mean you can't look sexy," it had said. And Leslie agreed. The dress clung to every one of her curves and there was not a modest thing about this dress, If her ex-husband Rick Webber would have been there, he would be drooling.
Once the three women were finished with their preparations, they left the room and headed down the stairs. When Luke caught sight of his wife, he gasped at how beautiful she looked. Alana still knew him well, he realized. She knew who his true love was, all she had to do was make him realize it one way or another.
Laura looked at her husband and smiled from ear to ear at the sight of him wearing his tux. He hated wearing them with a passion, but he always looked fabulous in them.
"We'd better get going. We need to get to the bus station," Laura said.
"I know, angel. But why couldn't Lucky, Nikolas, or Zander pick up our Indiana Jones?" Luke asked, referring to the one and only Frisco Jones.
"Luke, don't complain. You are the one who picked his name out of the hat," Laura told him as they headed out the door.
I DO BELIEVE IT'S GONNA BE ANOTHER RED LETTER DAY
EVERY DAY BEFORE THE RUSH GETS STARTED, I GET DOWN ON MY KNEES
AND I PRAY, LORD, I NEED YOU HERE TO GUIDE ME, PLEASE SPEAK TO ME
AND SOMETHING HAPPENS THAT I CAN'T EXPLAIN,
HIS WORD STARTS TALKING TO ME AND I'M OUT TO FACE THIS WORLD AGAIN
I DO BELIEVE IT'S GONNA BE ANOTHER RED LETTER DAY
I DO BELIEVE IT'S GONNA BE ANOTHER CHANCE FOR ME
TO TAKE HIS WORD AND WALK BY FAITH
I GOT A SMILE WITH EVERY STEP I TAKE
KNOWING HE IS HERE WITH ME, IT'S GONNA BE A RED LETTER DAY
Alana stood in front of the full length mirror in her and Stavros's bedroom on the yacht. The light yellow gown she was wearing made her look like the woman she was, matriarch of a powerful family. The gown flowed to the floor and had a slightly different style compared to what her mother-in-law wore.
Stavros stared at his wife from across the room. She hadn't changed that much in the less than 25 years that they had been apart. The only ones that had changed had been his children. Dimitria and Mathias were adults now, as were Natalia and Alexander. He had spent the past few days getting to know them.
He crossed the room and embraced his wife from behind. "Is everything ready for tonight, beautiful?"
"Everything is ready. Finally, Helena is getting her just desserts. She is finally going to pay for all her crimes," Alana said with a smile.
A knock sounded on the door at that moment. The door opened to reveal Natalia. "Mom, father, it's time to go."
Alana looked down at her watch. "You're right. Let's get going," she said before she grabbed the suit jacket that went with the gown and headed out the door.
