Chapter 1
Caught in the act….again
December 2008
Lucky got off of an hour early and was planning to surprise Elizabeth. He took the key from his pocket and walked into their apartment.
Elizabeth was there, with Nikolas. They were in the middle of a passionate kiss, and hadnt even noticed that Lucky entered the apartment. "What the hell is going on here ?" Lucky screamed. Elizabeth quickly broke the kiss and tried to explain, but he wouldnt listen to reason. "Nikolas, you need to leave." Elizabeth looked at him with tears filling her eyes. Nikolas nodded and left the apartment.
Once they were alone the tension increased. "Lucky please, just let me explain." Elizabeth pleaded. Lucky packed his things. "Theres nothing to say. Ill have Alexis draw up the divorce papers. Maddie belongs with her mother and I wont take her away from her brother either. I think we can work something out without getting the courts involved." Elizabeth wiped the tears from her cheeks "Okay, thank you for not trying to take her away from me." Before Elizabeth could say another word, Lucky walked out, slamming the door behind him.
Their marriage had been on shaky ground already. This wasnt the first time he caught Nikolas and Elizabeth in a compromising position. Lucky was furious, this time things were past the point of redemption. They worked through it the first time, but Lucky refused to be deceived again. As angry as he was with Elizabeth, he wouldnt kick her out of their apartment. He knew she couldnt afford a place of her own, and she needed somewhere to stay with the kids.
Lucky walked into the hallway and noticed Nikolas standing a few feet away. "Why are you still here ?" he yelled. "I wanted to make sure Elizabeth was okay." Nikolas answered. "Dont you think youve caused enough problems ? Get the hell out of here !" "Did you even bother to let her explain what happened, Lucky ?" Nikolas asked. "I dont care what happened, I know what I saw, and I know what would have happened if I didnt walk in when I did."
Elizabeth heard the commotion in the hallway and went to see what was going on. "Can you two quiet down, youll wake up the kids." she explained. "Stay out of this, Elizabeth." Lucky snapped. "Dont talk to her like that." Nikolas said, slamming his fist against Luckys cheek. Lucky quickly returned the punch, and hit Nikolas in the eye. Elizabeth rushed to get between the two of them. "Both of you, knock it off." she yelled.
Lucky grabbed his bags and took a cab to the Quartermaine mansion. Monica Quartermaine was seated in the living room when she heard someone knocking at the door. She went to answer it, and saw Lucky standing there, his cheek bruised and bleeding. "Are you alright ?" she said sounding concerned. "Yeah, Im fine, Monica. Is Emily here ?" "Shes in her room, you can go up and see her if you want." "Thank you." Monica nodded and shut the door behind Lucky.
Please review, I would love to hear what you think : )
