AN: I'm adding Lucky Spencer from GH, because I love that character. For those of you who don't know who Lucky is, he is played by Greg Vaughn and very hot!
Ch. 10
What now?
Jamie walked into the Chandler mansion and walked into the living room, knowing full well that JR would most likely be there with a glass of scotch. But he was surprised to find JR drinking water. Then Jamie remembered Babe making JR promise to stay away from alcohol.
"Jamie," JR stood up, "What's going on?"
"I've made my decision." Jamie told him.
JR waited and then said, "Well, don't keep me in suspense!"
"I'm going to help you. Babe needs to find happiness, and I know she can get that with you." Jamie explained.
JR smiled, "Thank you James."
Jamie nodded, and then said, "On one condition."
JR looked at Jamie.
"The evil mini-me Chandler better not make any appearances. If I hear that he has come out and play during any time I'm helping you, I'll make sure you and Babe don't have a future." Jamie warned.
"I promise, the only time he comes out is when I'm dealing with my father, my companies employee's or..." JR stopped when he heard a woman yelling and the front door open and slam, "Amanda." JR sighed.
Jamie turned and looked at Amanda, "What are you doing here?"
"I'm here because JR owes me an apology!" Amanda yelled, looking at JR.
"Me?" JR laughed and poured more water. "Amanda, get out."
"Not until I hear 'I'm sorry' come from your lips." Amanda placed her hands on her hips.
JR turned, "Hold your breath." He told her.
"Amanda, why don't you wait for me out in the car? I'm leaving right now anyways I can give you a lift." Jamie said.
Amanda looked at Jamie and nodded, and turned and glared at JR and then walked out of the manor.
"Why they allow that nut-job to walk around is beyond me." JR said, sipping his water.
Jamie shook his head, "I need to get going."
"But wait, we need to think up a plan." JR said.
"I'll think of something. I'll keep in touch." Jamie told him, and then walked out of the mansion.
-----
It had been about a month and Jamie and JR had been talking back and forth, coming up with plans. Babe hadn't spoken to either of them. She and Bianca were shopping, and Babe had walked into a separate store. Babe wasn't looking where she was going and she ran into someone.
"Oh, I'm really sorry." Babe said, looking into the tall man's eyes.
Babe was instant drawn in by his eyes. They were a dark brown, and they looked as if you could fall into them if you stared at them for too long. It looked like he hadn't shaven that morning, and it made him look incredibly sexy and... dangerous.
"It's no problem; I wasn't watching where I was going so it's my fault." The man apologized.
He couldn't stop staring at her. She was probably the most beautiful woman he had ever seen.
Babe nodded, and he said, "I'm Lucas Lorenzo Spencer Jr. My friends call me Lucky."
"Wow, that's a lot to remember. I'm Arabella Carey, Babe for short."
"Nice to meet you Babe."
"You too, Lucky." Babe smiled at him, and Lucky found himself smiling back.
"Listen, are you hungry? There's a place up the street I have wanted to try. My treat?" He asked.
Babe didn't know that Bianca was listening in to their conversation.
Babe smiled but then said, "I'm sorry, but I'm here with my friend..."
"No, no she's not. Hi, I'm Bianca." Bianca said, shaking hands with Lucky.
Babe looked at Bianca, "Babe, I have to go home and see Miranda. So yes, she is free and yes, she can go." Bianca grinned and Babe and waved, and then turned around and left.
"Well then, I guess I can go." Babe smiled at Lucky, and together they walked towards the restaurant.
About 4 hours later, Babe and Lucky were still sitting at the table, talking. They had really clicked.
"Oh, look at the time!" Babe said, seeing that it was now eight.
"Wow, it is getting late. The mall is going to close soon." Lucky said.
At that moment and announcement was made saying the mall would be closing in fifteen minutes.
"Wow, perfect timing." Babe smiled at him.
"I guess so. Well, can I drive you anywhere?" Lucky asked.
"If it's not too much trouble..." Babe said, unsure.
"If it means getting to spend more time with you, it's not trouble at all." He and Babe smiled at one another.
Lucky and Babe got up and he paid the bill, and then they walked out of the mall, arm in arm, towards his car. Lucky opened the door to his Range Rover for her, and she got in and he shut it after her.
I could get used to this, Babe smiled and thought as she looked over towards Lucky.
-----
"Jamie, you won't believe what happened at the mall today..." Bianca said, opening Jamie's apartment door and walking in.
Bianca stopped when she saw JR and Jamie in a deep conversation, "Oh, I hope I'm not interrupting." Bianca said, looking at the two men.
"No, it's fine. What happened at the mall?" Jamie asked.
"Who was that guy again, that you told me about? Um... the one with lots of Ls and with Spencer as a last name?"
"You mean Lucas Lorenzo Spencer JR?" Jamie asked, and Bianca nodded.
"That's him. Lucky for short, right? How did you know him?" Bianca asked.
"I met him a while ago when I stayed in Port Charles for the summer. How did you know Lucky was his nickname?"
"Well, Babe and I met him today." Bianca smiled.
"You met Lucky, he is here?" Jamie asked.
Bianca nodded, "He took Babe out to dinner, too."
Jamie's smile faltered a little and Bianca watched as JR's face fell.
"Did he really?" Jamie asked, looking back at JR.
"Yeah, he did."
"Where is Babe now?" JR asked.
Bianca shrugged, "I don't know. I left them at the mall. They said they were going to get something to eat and she hasn't called me yet. I guess they are having a good time."
Bianca watched JR swallow hard.
Just then Bianca's cell phone started ringing and she looked at the caller I.D, "It's Babe." She told them.
"Hello?" She asked, "Oh my god you just got in? He dropped you off? How was the dinner? How was he?"
Bianca laughed at something Babe had said, and both JR and Jamie waited for Bianca to tell them what happened.
"OK, I'll be over soon." Bianca hung up and both the guys stared at her.
"Well?" Jamie asked.
"They had fun, he just brought her home, and I'm going over there for more details." Bianca turned and walked out of Jamie's apartment, shutting the door behind her.
JR sat down on the couch, "Well, it's not over yet, right?" He asked Jamie.
"You haven't met Lucky." Jamie said, sitting on the couch next to JR.
"Way to inspire confidence James." JR said sarcastically.
"What are we gonna do now?" JR asked.
