Nadine stood on the launch waiting to be on land again. She felt bad about the manner in which she left. It was rude of her to leave like the way she did with him giving her so much hospitality last night. That was Nikolas for you always nothing but polite. She didn't know what to think of Nikolas right now. It was easy being mad and upset with him from a distance; but the close proximity she had with him last night made it so tempting for her. He always had this effect on her when she lived in Port Charles before; she only had wanted Nikolas. He was the only person that had really interested her. She knew she couldn't be like that again. She needed to move on and go forward in her life. She needs to move from Nikolas but she didn't know if she could. She got off the launch and got into the cab that was waiting for her. Nadine went to pick up her keys to her new apartment. She unlocked her apartment door and dropped off her luggage. She then decided to go to General Hospital. She went out the door and headed towards the place she would be working again.

Nadine got off the elevator at the hospital and shocked faces were all around her. She walked over to the nurse's station and saw Epiphany and said Hi. Epiphany complimented her on how good it was to have her back and that things haven't been the same since she left. They made arrangements of her starting her new position. Nadine left and knew there was one more stop she needed to make.

Liz was home and she had just put Cameron and Jake down for a nap. She was now in the kitchen baking enjoying the few minutes she had to herself before Lucky gets home or the boys wake up. The doorbell rang and she ran out the kitchen to go and answer it. She opened the door and saw Nadine.

"Hey, Nadine."

"Hi, Liz, how are you?"

"Good and you."

"Okay. I just wanted to thank you for dinner last night. It was wonderful."

"No Need"

"Oh, and the set up….thanks for that," Nadine said sarcastically.

"I have no idea what you mean," Liz said while grinning.

"Come on, you invite me over and Nikolas just happens to be coming over as well."

"Okay, I knew Nikolas was coming and I was hoping last night was a way for you guys to patch things up."

"Trust me we will not be patching things up. There are just way too much bad things that have happened. Nothing is going to happen between me and Nikolas….But I guess I should thank you."

"For what?" Liz asked curiously

"The hotel lost my reservation so Nikolas put me up for the night."

"Oh, really?" Liz said with a big grin on her face.

"Don't get any ideas. Nothing happened. It doesn't mean a thing. Nothing is going to happen between me and Nikolas."

"Oh, Okay. Whatever you say, Nadine."

"Liz, nothing."

Nikolas was so disappointed when he found out Nadine had already left when he woke up. He wanted to be able to spend more time with her. He missed her even if it was just conversing with her. He needed to see her again; especially after that dream last night. He had no idea where she had gone. Was her apartment ready for her or would she be spending the night in a hotel? The only place he could think to look was at the hospital. That was the place he usually ran into her. He hasn't been a part of her life in so long. He wondered if she had changed since he knew her before. It didn't seem she had changed much from last night; it was like no time had passed at all. He knew before she left he had cared about her but it took her being away to realize how intense his feelings actually were. It looked like her clothing had changed slightly; a little more sophisticated. Her attitude towards him had changed. He was used to seeing her all bubbly, happy, and nothing really fazing her at all. He saw parts of that last night but he also saw anger which he never had really seen in the past. He decided he needed to try to see if she was at the hospital. He grabbed his keys and left.

Nadine decided to take a walk around town and see if much had changed since she left. She went to the park, the pier, and passed by the street where the clinic was. Everywhere she went she was reminded of a time that she spent with Nikolas.

The Park- running into Nikolas when she told him she would marry him to help him with his immigration status.

The Pier-where she fell flat on her face after the night they first slept together.

The clinic-way too many memories to count. There were all the late nights with them working together. Nikolas tried to convince her not to investigate the counterfeit drugs at the clinic. There was the fire that occurred where he carried her out of the Smokey clinic in his arms. The fire was the turning point of their relationship where he finally admitted he had feelings for her more than friendship.

She came across Kelly's; when she left it had been closed because of the mob explosion. She decided she mine as well stop and get some lunch while she was here. So she went inside and grabbed a table.

Nikolas got off the launch and started heading towards the hospital on a mission to find Nadine. He thought he would make a quick stop first. He was getting kind of hungry and needed a cup of coffee so he decided to stop at Kelly's first then he would head over to the hospital.

Nikolas opened the door to Kelly's and headed to the counter waiting for Mike to come out to take his order.

"I'll be right with you," Mike yelled from the kitchen.

Nikolas looked down at his watch and turned around as a way of occupying himself while he was waiting. He looked around and came across a head of beautiful blonde hair he knew so well. She was preoccupied by looking at the menu she probably hadn't noticed him enter the diner. He walked towards her table.

Nadine sat at the table trying to decide what to order. Then, suddenly she felt a presence of someone staring at her. She looked up and saw Nikolas standing over her. This was the last place she expected to run into him. He didn't say a word; he was just staring at her.

"May I join you?"
