Johnny's POV

I woke up in the middle of the night again, whispering her name in my sleep. That woman had captivated my very being since the night I'd met her, I couldn't imagine the day she wouldn't. I slowly crept along the living room carpet careful not to wake Lovett up, I knew he had to be at the airport early tomorrow. I went outside on the balcony, staring out at the midnight air. There was a time in my life where I would have her by my side at this very moment, I'd had everything in the palm of my hands...I didn't even know how good I had it until I saw the aftermath of all of my bullshit.

"Lulu, I miss coming home to you." I breathed out as my eyes flutter shut, finally I could say these things out loud without any interruption. A melody played in his head as images of the blonde firecracker flitted through his mind.

"Why didn't I realize how good I had it? Lulu was the one for me, I blew it. I'm lucky she even has anything to do with me. Oh, I loathe myself." Johnny gritted his teeth, forcing himself to look around him. Johnny was alone, it seemed neverending. Maybe he would always be alone, maybe it's what he deserved. Johnny's melancholy thoughts were interrupted by a vibration, frowning he reached into his pocket and fished out his phone.

"Zacchara." Johnny didn't know who would be calling at one thirty in the morning but, it could be important. It was Port Charles, after all.

"Still a night owl?" He heard that voice say, the one he'd been dreaming to hear for so long.

"Isn't it past your bedtime, Spencer?" Johnny's lips curled into a smirk.

"I'm not dead yet." Lulu playfully scoffed at him, pulling her coat tighter around her as she sat on the bench in the center of the park.

"All jokings aside,what are you doing up this late?" Johnny was worried, she never called him.

"I need you to pick me up. I'm...in the park. Something happened tonight and, I really didn't feel like calling anyone else. Dante will just...try to make everything better, besides I'm not talking to that two timing jerk." There was a nervous edge to her voice, one Johnny didn't like.

"I'm coming. Oh no, what did saint Falconeri do? I'm shocked." Johnny smirked, slowly creeping back into the penthouse to slip on his jacket and shoes, then grabbing his keys and slowly shutting the door.

"Thank you. Oh, didn't you hear? Dante's balls are at Brenda's beck and call now. Of course, Brenda pushes him away at every turn but... Dante is relentless. I just wish I was the one he was pursuing but, it's fine. I'm not gonna cry about it, it's whatever. Dante probably never deserved me anyway. We were doomed from the night we first met." Lulu tried to brush off any hint of sadness to do with Dante but, she knew that Dante had hurt her.

"I did not...I am so sorry Lu. You deserve the world and I'm sorry that Falconeri didn't realize what a gem you are. I'm on my way to get you. I'm still confused on why you called me." Johnny was glad to hear from her but, he was still confused on why he was her first call.

"It might surprise you to know this but, you are the one person that I trust more than anything in this world. I know that if I call you in the middle of the night, you'll pick up. I could have easily called Ethan or Maxie but, their not you. I would have been disappointed. I know that we've hurt each other a lot in the past but, that's never changed the fact that we care about each other and that nobody can make us laugh like each other. No matter what happens between us, I always know that if I call you'll pick up." Lulu simply answers, having no problem voicing her feelings. A small smile tugged on the corners of Johnny's lips.

"Given our history, that means a lot to me. You've been on my mind lately, more than I'd like to admit. Being with you was the best experience of my life, I don't know where I would be if I hadn't picked you up that night." Johnny pulled into the parking lot, switching on the gear into park.

"Maybe a break is what we needed. Even before you and Maxie kissed, we hadn't been us in a long time. I don't know how we lost us, it's hard to pinpoint an exact time frame. I just know that I miss being with you, I'm not happy." Lulu hated to admit that she had lost who she was but, it was true. Lulu couldn't pinpoint an exact time on that either but, she knew that Johnny knew her better than anyone else. Who else would she really have called? Johnny's the only one who made sense. Lulu stands up from her seat on the bench upon hearing the motor of Johnny's car, excitement bubbling up inside of her.

"There's my girl." Johnny smirked getting out of his car, standing in the parking lot lovingly staring at her.

"I've always been your girl, even when we're not together. We're inevitable." Lulu returned his smirk, walking over to stand in front of him only inches apart from the other.

"It was always you, Lulu Spencer. You were always the one."
