Surprises
Chapter 2
Author's Note: Thank you for all the reviews! Sorry it has been a while since I update this.
Lucky couldn't believe what was happening, one minute his mom was like how she has been for all of these years, and the next minute she was acting like she was before everything happened.
"Lucky, honey, what's wrong?" Laura asked.
Lucky looked at his mother with this smile on his face. "Nothing's wrong." he said, as he grabbed her hand. "I'm going to go and get your doctor. "
Laura smiled at Lucky. "You have grown up so much."
A tear fall down his cheek.
"Lucky…" Laura said. "Why are you crying?
Lucky kneeled down next to her. "Do you know where you are?"
Laura looked around the room. "I'm guessing some kind of hospital."
She then looked at the ring on Lucky's finger. "I'm guessing by the ring on your hand that it has been a long time." Laura said, as she looked down on the ground. Lucky hugged his mom. "Don't be sad… I love you."
Laura looked up at her son. "Tell me how long I've been in here?"
"Why don't you talk to your doctor first? They are going to want to know you are talking." Lucky said. "I'll go and get them now." Lucky said, as he walked away from Laura.
He then turned around. "But I'll be back."
As Lucky walked out of the room, Lulu was sitting against the wall waiting for him. "Are you ready to go?" Lulu asked, as she stood up. She then saw the look in his eyes, he looked so happy.
"Lucky… what happened in there?" she asked. Lucky smiled at Lulu. "She talked to me, she knew exactly who I was, I need to talk to the doctor right now."
The doctor walked to Lucky and Lulu. "Is everything alright with your mom?" Lucky turned around to look at the doctor. "She talked to me, she knows who I am."
The doctor nodded. "What does she know?" he asked. Lucky shake his head. "I didn't ask her, I didn't really know what to say, I was pretty shocked when my mom talked to me after all these years."
"You two wait out here, while I talked your mom." the doctor said, as he walked into the room. Lucky turned to Lulu and pulled her into a hug. Lulu looked at Lucky. "Are you sure that she knows who you are."
Lucky smiled. "I know this is hard for you. I never thought that this was ever going to happen, but it did."
Lulu walked up to the window and looked at Laura talking to the doctor. "What am I suppose to do, Lucky. I'm supposed to be happy that our mom is talking again, or should I be mad because she took so long to do it. What kind of daughter am I?"
Lucky placed his hand on her shoulder. "It's alright to be angry, Lulu."
Lulu turned to Lucky. "I don't know how I feel about it. It took me so long to finally come here, Lucky. I don't know how I am going to react when I talk to our mom again, I'm not the same person I was all those years ago, I was a little girl then, Lucky. She's going to remember the little girl I was, I'm a grown woman now, what am I suppose to say."
Lucky hugged his little sister; he could see how much pain she was in.
"You don't need to worry about that right now. I promise our mom is going to be happy to see you, you're her daughter, it doesn't matter if you are a little girl or a grown woman, she loves you no matter what.
Lulu nodded. "Thanks, Lucky." The doctor then walked out of the room. "Your mom wants to see you, Lucky."
Lulu looked at Lucky. "Are you saying that she doesn't know I'm here with you?"
Lucky nodded. "It's up to you if you want to come in with me. You have lots of time to do, Lulu, don't think you have to do it today."
Lulu sighed. "I just can't do it right now, tell our mom I love her and I'll meet you back at the car." Lulu said, as she walked away from Lucky.
Lucky turned to the doctor. "How's my mom doing?" he asked.
"She's doing pretty well considering how she has been for many years. Just don't tell her too much stuff at once; we need to ease her into her life. Having her family around her is going to do her a lot of good," the doctor said, as he walked away from Lucky.
Lucky opened the door, and walked inside. Laura was sitting in the chair.
Laura looked at Lucky. "So tell me everything who did you marry?" she said, with this big smile on her face.
Lucky grinned at his mother. "That is the first thing you want to know."
"Well my son is married; I want to know who it is." Laura said, still smiling at her son, she couldn't believe how much he is grown into a man.
"It's Elizabeth, mom." Lucky said, as his face lit up when he said her name.
"You married Elizabeth." Laura said, with a grin on her face. "I always knew that the two of you would find your way back together. So how's my little girl?"
Laura then looked down on the floor. "She's not little anymore. I've missed so much of her life, and yours." Lucky placed his hand on hers. "All of that doesn't matter; you are talking to me now that is the only thing I need."
"Lulu's doing fine, she misses her mom."
Laura nodded. "I miss her too."
"So how long have you and Elizabeth been married?" Laura asked.
Lucky smiled. "For 4 years."
"She makes you really happy doesn't she?" Laura asked, as she could see the smile on his face.
"Elizabeth and Cameron are everything to me."
"Cameron? You have a son." Laura said, with this surprised look on her face.
Lucky grinned. "He's my son, in all the ways that count, even though he's not biological mine. I did adopt him a few years ago. I love that little boy, and maybe soon he will have a little brother or sister."
"Elizabeth's pregnant"
Lucky smiled. "She took a pregnancy test, but we haven't been to the doctor yet, so we don't want to get excited, in case the test is wrong." Laura grabbed Lucky's hand. "The test won't be wrong."
Lucky then pulled out a picture that was in his wallet. "This is Cameron with Elizabeth." Laura took the picture and smiled. "He's so cute."
"He's the best, I love him to pieces."
Laura then looked at Lucky. "I can tell that. So how's Nikolas doing?" she asked.
Lucky laughed. "Well he's having marriage problems right now, but you don't need to know that. He's going to be so happy that you are talking."
"I can't wait to see my other kids, and Luke."
Lucky hugged his mother. "I think it is time that you rest, mom. You have been through a lot today."
"I'm the one that is supposed to take care of you."
Lucky smiled. "Well just let me take care of you for a while. I'll be back soon." he said. "I love you mom."
Lucky was walking away when Laura called out to him. He turned. "Yeah."
"Make sure that you bring your wife and your son next time."
Lucky smiled. "Definitely."
Later,
Lucky walked into the old apartment, where Elizabeth had packed most of the stuff. "Liz." he said.
She came out of the bedroom. "I've packed most of the stuff, don't worry I didn't carry the heavy thing, Nikolas did that for me."
Lucky smiled at Elizabeth. "That's good."
She then looked at him with this smile on her face. "Or you going to tell me why you are so happy or do I need to get you to tell me?" she said, as she leaned over and kissed him.
"My mom talked to me, Liz, after all these years; she knew exactly who I was."
Elizabeth pulled Lucky into a hug. "That's amazing, I'm so happy for you."
He then looked at Elizabeth. "I was so happy that she was talking to me, but at the same time I was thinking why did it take her so long to do it. I told Lulu it was okay to be angry at her, that it is okay to feel that way, but I don't want to feel that way.
Elizabeth led Lucky to the couch. "Oh Lucky, it's okay to feel happy and angry at the same time, you tell Lulu that is okay to feel that way, but why isn't it okay for you too?"
"Lulu lost her childhood with her mother, while I didn't." Lucky said.
Elizabeth put her arms around Lucky. "You lost a lot with your mother too just the same, if you want to be angry you have every right to be."
Lucky smiled. "I'm so lucky to have you."
"If you aren't up to getting a tree tonight, that's fine." Elizabeth said. Lucky smiled at her. "I've been waiting to do this all day. Is Cameron all ready?"
"Yes, daddy, "Cameron said, as he run towards Lucky and Lucky hugged him. " Have you been a good boy for mommy?"
"Aren't he always?" Elizabeth said, as she grabbed her jacket. " Let's go and get that Christmas tree?"
"Yay..." Cameron said, as he grabbed his jacket. " I'm ready." he said. Lucky looked down at his feet. "Aren't you forgetting your boots?" he said, as he grabbed the boots and led Cameron to the couch and helped him put them on.
Elizabeth touched her stomach, as she was watching Lucky putting the boots on Cameron. " I know that I'm pregnant.. I just know it. You little one.. your dad is the best, you're going to love him."
"Were you saying something?" Lucky asked, as he walked up to her. Elizabeth shakes her head. "No."
Lucky knew that she was talking to her stomach, but he wasn't going to say anything to her. He put her arms around her. "Let's go find the biggest Christmas tree there is."
"Lucky, I don't think we should get a big tree."
Lucky looked at Cameron. "What do you think Cam? Should we have a big tree or the tiny tree?"
"A big tree." Cameron yelled. "Us men don't have tiny trees." Elizabeth smiled to herself, as Cameron and Lucky walked ahead of her. She touched her stomach. "You better be a girl... I'm outnumbered here."
Later that night,
Lucky was lying in the bed when Elizabeth walked into the room. "Is Cameron asleep?"
Elizabeth nodded. "I think we tired him out, he went to asleep as soon his head hit the pillow," she said, as she started to get undressed and then went her nightgown on and then climbed into bed with Lucky, and put her arms around him.
" I can't believe that in nine months there will be another child running around the room, I'm hoping we will have a little girl, but I don't care as long as the child is healthy. What about you?
When Lucky didn't say anything, Elizabeth turned to Lucky. "Aren't you excited?"
"Of course I am!" A smile spread across Lucky's face as he took Elizabeth's hand in his. "You know I am…I just…wanna wait until we see the doctor, you know?"
"I know." She smiled as well, giving his hand a squeeze. "I made an appointment for tomorrow morning."
Elizabeth put her head on his chest. "Whatever happens tomorrow, we will deal with it." She said, still holding on his hand. He squeezes her hand. "I took the whole day off tomorrow."
She sat up and faced him. "You shouldn't have done that." Lucky smiled at her. "No matter what happens, I want to spend the day with you, but if you really want me to go to work, I can call Mac."
"Don't you dare" Elizabeth said, with a grin. She then leaned over and kissed him. " Good night, Lucky."
"Good night, Liz." Lucky said, with a smile, as he turned the light off.

Elizabeth was sitting in the hospital room, waiting for Dr. Meadows to come back with the test results.
"What if I'm not pregnant…" Elizabeth replied. Lucky grabbed her hand, and smiled. " We just have to keep on trying."
"I already imagine what your son or daughter will look like, I told myself that there is a chance that I could not be pregnant, but that didn't stop me." Lucky put his arms around her. " If you aren't pregnant this time, doesn't mean you won't be later on. We are going to have another baby, even if I have to keep trying and trying." Lucky said, as she leaned over and kissed Elizabeth.
Dr. Meadows walked into the room. "Elizabeth."
Lucky and Elizabeth both turned around.
"So what are the results?" she asked.
"Elizabeth, you are definitely pregnant, congratulates." Lucky pulled her into her hug. " We are having a baby."
Dr. Meadows looked at them both. "Elizabeth, just make an appointment to see me in a few weeks."
Elizabeth nodded, as Dr. Meadows left the room.
Elizabeth looked at Lucky. "I can't believe this, we are having a baby." she said, with this big smile on her face. " We're having a baby."
"Yes we are. You were worried that you weren't pregnant." Lucky said, as he grabbed her hand.
"I know, Lucky." Elizabeth said, as she touched her stomach. " Our daugther or son is growing in there."
" Hello.. I'm your daddy." Lucky said, as he talked to Elizabeth's stomach. Elizabeth smiled at Lucky. " You know I'm not that far along, you know, you don't need to do that right now."
" I want to.. I want our baby to know how much their dad loves them right away." Elizabeth grabbed Lucky's hand. " I love you, Lucky. Cameron and this baby are so lucky to have you." she said, touching her stomach. "I can't wait to tell Cameron that he is going to be a big brother. "
Lucky put his arms around her as they were leaving the room; he had this big smile on his face.
He has his wonderful wife, Cameron, his mom is finally out of her trance and now he is going to be a father, his life couldn't get any better.
