Johnny was worried about her...He swore if Lulu Spencer didn't mean so much to him he definitely wouldn't have gotten into a heated argument with Olivia over her. The fact was that Lulu was still the most important thing in the world to him, and if she was in trouble-well, he would always be there to help her.
"She was acting out for attention...why would you want to help her?" Olivia stubbornly crossed her arms, the day Johnny was being released from GH.
"That's not how Lulu is, stop pretending you know what she's like. Maybe you and me were a mistake. Goodbye Liv." Johnny rolled his eyes, tired of hearing her bash Lulu.
"Wow, that's nice." Olivia scoffed, obviously looking for a fight-as she always was.
"I'm not feeding into you're bull shit Liv, not anymore. You can fuck right off, you do you. I'm done." Johnny walked out of the hospital room and to the elevator.
"Johnny!" He heard a voice call out to him as he held the elevator.
"Lulu? I've been worried about you. What are you doing here?" Johnny breathed a sigh of relief, as his ex- girlfriend joined him.
"I might as well be blunt about this...I'm pregnant. I know this couldn't come at a worst possible time but, I'm not just gonna hide something like that from you. I haven't been with anyone else since we broke up, so I know it has to be yours or I'm carrying a fucking alien in my abdomen." Lulu blurted as they walked out of GH, the news of course coming to a shock but he was relieved.
"Jesus Lulu, I thought you were in some sort of trouble the way you were acting yesterday. I just-I really didn't like the way Parelli was talking to you." Johnny sighed, relived.
"I know, I don't like being around Dominic. I mean yeah, I kissed him once or twice but-only to be a spiteful bitch. There's no way I could ever deal with him on a daily basis-Johnny, he creeps me out." Lulu admitted as they walked along Pier 52, a gust of wind hitting them.
"I broke up with Liv...you didn't have to be nervous about telling me you're pregnant." Johnny shook his head.
"I hope I'm not the reason for that. I'm more nervous about this Franco guy being on the lose and you're father finding out." Lulu explained, shoving her hands deep into her coat pockets.
"I know...I'll do whatever I can to protect you. You know that. Morgan was talking about taking Sam to a safe house because the threats are getting so bad-would you be willing to do that? Normally I would never ask you to but, with psycho's running around I don't want to risk the chance of you not being safe." Johnny had been going over this in his head for about a week and a half now, knowing Lulu was danger prone.
"I think that would be the most logical course of action...thank you for asking me and not just telling me. I trust you to keep me safe, in fact, you're one of the only people I do trust." Lulu agreed, stopping to look at him.
"I know, and I try to be worthy of you're trust. It kills me that I fucked up with you Lu, it really does." Johnny tried not to think about their past but, some nights this proved to be impossible.
"Johnny we don't have to talk about the past-I know that Claudia put you in a difficult position…I'm sure I would have buckled under the pressure." Lulu immediately shook her head, hating that he felt guilty.
"But Lu, I could have just come out and been honest. I made everything way more difficult than it had to be-instead of Liv being by my side it could have been you. If I wasn't such a fucking dumbass. You were always the woman I wanted by my side and I ruined us. What happened will never sit right with me." Johnny blurted out, unable to stop himself.
"Let's not play the blame game, alright? Shit happens. The fact is that I need you in my life. Our baby needs you-neither of us are perfect and I wouldn't want us to be. I love who you are and I still love you-I could never have love for someone else the way I have love for you." Lulu refused to let him feel bad about their past, after all-their breakup was only a tiny piece of the past…their story was her favorite subject.
"You're too good for me and I don't deserve you but, I love you. I will always be here for you and our baby…"
