Chapter 2-Daddy Knows Best

"Ethan?"

"Yes love?" He asked drowsy.

We were up for hours, talking, and hugging, well, mostly, him hugging me. Now, we were lying in bed, with the covers pulled up to my neck, Ethan had no covers on him, being that I took them all. I was truly scared, even though, this felt more right than anything.

"Are you sure?"

"Love, I have never been so sure of anything else in my life. Now, Lulu, please get some rest."

I shook my head. "I can't, I have to talk to my dad."

I watched as his eyes shot open, and his head slowly turned to meet mine. He fuddled for words. "L-Luke?" He asked, gulping.

"Yea. Maybe he'll be happy."

"Oh, my god Lulu…Tracy."I shot up.

"Oh, CRAP!""It's alright" He put his hand on my back, I was still sitting up. I looked over to him, and bent down to kiss him.

I bent my head down, and lie on his chest.

"Please, love, now sleep. We'll deal with everything tomorrow."

"Goodnight Ethan"

"Goodnight love. Sleep well."

I mumbled something before I fell into a daze.

I've always been told to live on the edge. To do things spur of the moment. To do crazy, unexpected things.

I walked into the Haunted Star, and saw my father, and Ethan, engulfed in a conversation at the bar. Luke didn't know about our affair, and I didn't want him to. But he had to, because I got pregnant with my lover's baby.

I walked in further, and walked over to the bar.

"Hey dad."

"Hey cupcake, Ethan here was just telling me about you. You feeling alright, cupcake?""Dad, we need to talk to you about something. Please, have an open mind about this, dad. For your own sake?""Alriight gumdropp. Just spiitt itt ouut."

"Dad, your slurring.""No, Lulu, im not slurring. I'm urging you on, now come on! There's nothin' ol' Luke can't handle."

"Mhmm" I mumbled.

Ethan came around the bar, next to me, and put his hand in front of me. "I'll tell him, love.""You see, Mr. Spencer, Lulu was quite upset after her dismiss with her shmuck, but she came to me for comfort. Well, along that road, we felt something for each other---""Wait, lemme guess, you two are together." He grinned in glory, thinking he was right, oh how he was so wrong, and took a sip of soda.

"Well, yes, but that's not all, Sir."

I couldn't take it anymore. "Dadimpregnant."

He spit his drink onto the floor next to him, and started to choke on nothing.

"Your--Your pregnant?""WHAT!?" A shriek came from the side, Must be Tracy.

We turned our heads, yep.

"Lulu, your pregnant!? With Zacharra's baby?!" For a second, I wished it was Johnny's, even though he was a mobster, it would be better than getting pregnant with a man's baby that I knew for a total of 4 months.

"No Tracy. It isn't Johnny's." How was I going to tell her I was pregnant with the man she was so suspicious of. But he couldn't be my brother. Not if he slept with me over, and over. But nobody else knew that.

"Then whose is it?! Someone you picked off the street?""Actually Mrs. Spencer, it isn't. Its ours."

He face fell, and her eyes widened. My dad just stared, blanked out.

"Your having this con's baby!!??""Y-Yes."Tracy just stared, flustered.-Fix You-Coldplay starts playing-

"I'm-I'm happy for you gumdrop."What?

"What!?" Tracy exclaimed.

"Oh, come on, Tracy. Lulu is a grown woman. She's our daughter, well, my daughter, and we need to support her. This is her life, she can do what she wants. We need to be there for her."I smiled, and just let the tears freely flow.

"T-Thank you dad."He nodded, and got up out of his seat.

I wrapped my arms around him, and looked over to Tracy. She gave a sly smile, and mouthed "congratulations." I nodded. She turned to Ethan…

"You." She pointed. "This is your fault, your kid, you better take good care of Lulu. Or so help me---""Whoa, relax Mrs. Spencer. I will take good care of her, I swear." He stuck his hand out.

"Lulu!?"I suddenly couldn't breathe. Johnny.

I whipped around, and met my eyes with his.

"What do you want?""You, Lulu. I want you. I swear, no more PR dates with Maxie, I want to get out of this country. Come with me. We can finally be happy, be free. Start our life together. Please, Lulu."

His eyes were red, and glassy, and my heart ached for him.

"Johnny, it's too late."He walked closer to me, but Ethan got in front of him. "She said no.""Ethan…Just…wait." He slightly body-slammed Johnny, and I looked at him.

"Come here."

Johnny and I walked onto the docks.

"Johnny, I can't."

"Why not Lulu!? I can't live without you, please! What's stopping you?"

"I just….I can't Johnny. Please, don't do this."

"Just give me a reason why Lulu."

"Johnny…I'm having his baby."His eyes widened, in pain. "Who's?"

"Ethan's.""No. No. Are you serious, Lu?""I'm sorry, I have to go."

Before I could move, he turned me back around, and pulled my lips to his. I felt that lump in my throat, and just kissed him deeper to get rid of it. I pulled away quickly.

"I can't do this. Goodbye Johnny."

He whispered in my ear. "I'm always going to love you Lulu."

I looked up at him, and sniffled, and tried to stop the tears from flowing, and walked away from the life I knew I should be living.

We were back at the apartment, and in the living room. Maxie was there too.

"Lulu.""What?" I asked annoyed.

I was in Ethan's arms, lying on his chest. Today, the nausea started. It was terrible.

"What's wrong with you lately? I know something's up, and it isn't Johnny."I rolled my eyes at her, and shook my head.

"It's none of your business.""Lulu, come on. It was just a few kisses, and Everytime, Johnny stopped, saying he loved you.""I'm not going to forgive you. Every man I'm with, you just have to prove that no one will stay with me. Well, I'm going to prove you wrong."I walked out of the room, Ethan and I, hand in hand.

When we got into the bedroom, Ethan pulled me into him.

"I love you Lulu."

"I love you too, Ethan. And Our baby." He put his hand on my stomach.

Sorry Guys! I got really emotional, I used to be a HUGE Jolu fan, and I can't get over it. I have a soft spot. The next chapter Will be more Luthan.

I'm not feeling this story, so please, review!

Thanks,
