Hello again everyone! Thank you all so much for the lovely reviews! It really means a lot and it really spurs me on to write more as it does take me a while to get into the wing of writing a new chapter! I hope I do Luc and Eddi justice with this chapter, even though it might not be as long as the first one! Anyway, enjoy!

Eddi

She was absolutely horrified. Who did Luc Hemingway think he was? Coming into her flat when he didn't even have the mordacity to contact her in three weeks after mysteriously disappearing. Slamming the bedroom door with more force than intended after she had exited, she followed Luc and stood waiting for a so called "explanation". Her arms were folded, a sheer sign that she was not impressed with his actions.

"What the hell are you doing here Luc?" She asked suddenly. "Why after three weeks of no contact with me have you decided to show your face?" She hissed with a hint of anger evident in her voice.

She didn't want to do this to him. Her heart was telling her to forgive him instantly and take him back. However, the more logical path was to confront him, push past all of her strong feelings for him and be blunt with him. She needed to know why he had suddenly disappeared off the face of the earth without telling her. But she loved him, she couldn't deny that. She hadn't felt love like this in a long time.

Luc

He stood there with his hands in his jean pockets, not making any sort of eye contact with her. Luc genuinely thought that he was doing a good thing coming into Eddi's flat to explain himself to her. The reason for him leaving with such short notice was to do with the fact that after such a stressful day, he needed to get away. He needed to clear his head and come back to Holby a new man, ready for action.

"Eddi…please let me explain.." He muttered softly lifting his head up ever so slowly. He was faced with the unimpressed expression painted across Eddi's pale face. He could tell that she had lost a lot of trust in him. As he studied her facial features, he suddenly realised that she hadn't been looking after herself. Her normal bright face had turned a deathly white colour. Her once sparkling eyes had gone all glazed and red. In all honesty, she didn't look well at all. Anyone could notice that.

"Eddi…I needed to clear my head…it was all too much for me…" He spoke gently as he took a few steps towards her. "I know you're upset…"

"Upset! I'm more than upset Luc! How could you do this? How could you not contact me for nearly three weeks and then suddenly trample your way back into Holby as if you've done nothing wrong!" Eddi snapped as she held out her hand, almost an attempt to keep him away from her.

Eddi

It wasn't like Eddi to shout, but he had annoyed her somewhat. He really had no clue how hurt she was. The constant pain Eddi felt every night when he wasn't there to hold her. She had been having trouble sleeping as well, which made matters worse. Eddi had recently started having nightmares. They didn't really make sense but they often made Eddi wake up in the middle of the night in a right state, longing for Luc to be there to cuddle her and tell her everything would be alright.

"You know what Luc?" Eddi began with a slight wobble in her voice. "Just get out…and don't even think about speaking to me at work anymore…I'm not interested…" Eddi had just managed to get the words out before she felt a lump in her throat as she chocked on the last three words. The past few weeks for Eddi had been hell. The constant asking of questions about Luc's disappearance by Chrissie and Michael had really started to get at her now. The constant feeling of pain and illness had also caused her to struggle through the past few days.

As she tried to compose herself, her hand frantically wiping at her face to try and stop the tears from falling. Silence had engulfed the room. No one dared to take a step. As Eddi noticed Luc still standing there sometime later, her blood was boiling. She didn't want to feel like this towards him, she really didn't.

"I thought I said…get out…" She snapped as she turned to head towards the kitchen. Luc was hot on her heals however, following her silently. As Eddi reached her tiny kitchen, she could feel the presence of Luc behind her. With anger raging through her body, she picked up the glass which she had consumed a glass of water previously and chucked it in his direction in an act of rage,. She was uncontrollable.

As the glass flew near him, Luc managed to swiftly dodge the solid object before a smashing sound echoed through Eddi's flat. He scowled at her and turned on his heals before storming out of her flat. He had had enough of her and wasn't going to stick around for anymore abuse from Eddi.

The loud, cringing slam of the door sent Eddi into floods of tears once again. Sliding down the wall, Eddi covered her face with her hands. "I'm sorry…" She chocked on the words before her sobs turned into wails. She wasn't a violent person. She had no idea why she did what she did. Noticing the shards of glass lying on her wooden floor, Eddi crawled over and started to pick them up. Even when the glass began cutting into the skin of her hands, Eddi kept going. She didn't care anymore. She had lost the only thing she had loved, besides her brother. She had no one now. No one.

Thanks for reading! Sorry I've taken so long to post this! Anyway, until next time, Megan x
