After the bathrobe incident, they went to the school store, to buy her books, and stuff she would need. She also got her schedule, and Lucky shared two classes with her. She was in sociology with him and Marysa, but also in Greek Mythology. Her classes didn't start until the next day, but she was anxious to get on it. This afternoon, she would go to the library to get ideas for their mural, but she already knew how she would paint the bedroom. It would be a surprise for Lucky. She called Nikolas to ask him a favor, and he accepted. As soon as she would receive what she asked him, she would get on it. She wanted to paint on the three walls the same thing she did in the boxcar, and she asked Nikolas to go and take pictures so it would be the exact reproduction of where, she believed, they really fell in love. Lost in her thoughts, she didn't hear the phone ringing at, but then she answered.
"-Elizabeth? Hi, this is Laura
-Oh hi Mrs. Spencer, how are you?
-I'm good, how about you?
-Never better.
-I'm glad to hear it. Is Lucky around?? Nikolas told me he would spend all his free time in your apartment, and that it would be faster to join him here, than at his room.
-Well, Nikolas is right, the only time he's not here is when I go to bed. But he is not here right now, he had a class this morning.
-Really? Was it his first one?
-Yes it was. He is suppose to come rigght back here after, would you like me to tell him to call you?
-Yes thank you. Nothing important, I jjust wanted to know how he was doing.
-As soon as he comes in, I'll give him the message
-Thank you, take care Elizabeth
-You too Mrs. Spencer"
While waiting for Lucky, Elizabeth washed the dishes, made the bed, dust a little, and then she allowed herself to read a little. 2 hours passed by, and she saw how much time would pass slowly when Lucky was going to be in class. Finally, she heard keys in the door, and Lucky passed it. He looked like a freshman in high school, with his back pack on his shoulder. He put the bag on the bed and kissed her on the cheek. She smiled at him, and put her book away. He went into the kitchen, to prepare himself a snack, and he offered some to Liz.
"-I don't want something to eat, thanks away. But I'd sure like to talk though.
-Sure beautiful, talk about what?
-What happened yesterday.
-I thought the subject was closed
-I don't think it is. I don't want it to be
-Do you realized that we've lived togetther for three days and it's the second "talk" we have? Not a good record
-I'm serious Lucky
-So am I. I said I was sorry, I don't want to talk about it anymore
-Well I do. Lucky, I know you want to protect me from harm and I love you for it, I really do. But I think it's time we start acting like a normal couple. With a girl who wasn't raped, you'd already be moving forward.
-Elizabeth, I don't want to push you. I am on thin ice here. One false move, and you'll be back where you were.
-I don't think so. How am I supposed tto heal if you protect me too much
-Don't you think you are moving too fasst?
-How am I supposed to learn not to fearr physical contacts if you never teach me? I'm not saying I'm ready to make love, I am not and I'm probably far from it too, but just kissing isn't enough anymore. I want to take it slow, but I don't want to stall.
-Saturday you were saying that you werre afraid I'd go see someone else because you weren't ready for this and now you are asking me for it? I don't understand
-Lucky, for a year and a half now, I'vee been trusting you with my life. For more than a year, I've also been trusting you with my heart. Don't you think it's about time I trust you with my body? What happened yesterday made me realized that you will stop if I ask you too. Not that I doubted it, but there I was, naked in front of you, and you didn't even move on me. You knew I wasn't ready and you respected it, so I know you will respect when I say I don't want to go further. No matter what you feel, you will stop."
Lucky was really uncomfortable with this talk. He stood up and started pacing the room. Liz's elbows were on the table, and her head was in her hands. She was sure he didn't understand anything she was saying. Liz thought he was thinking she was some kind of a weirdo, wanting to be touched after everything that's happened, and she was starting to feel guilty.
"-Look Lucky, forget I even said anything."
She got up and went in the bedroom. Lucky followed her, but didn't say a word. He put his arms around her shoulder and she put her head on his chest, while he took his chin to the top of her head. They stayed like that a while, when Lucky took her head in his hands, and started kissing her. Elizabeth responded to his kiss with all the love she had for him. Something changed in the way he was kissing her. Liz blushed because she thought she liked his kisses before, but WOW now. She felt like her whole body was on fire. She moved forward a little, so she could hold him closer to her.
Lucky was decided to let her know how he really felt about her. She wanted him to stop treating her like she would break. Before, he always restrained his passion, his love, because he was afraid that if he gave to much into a kiss, that she would panic, but that was all the opposite. She was responding with everything she had inside and Lucky was going crazy. He finally understood she was ready for a little bit more out of their relationship, and he was too. His hands were going up and down her back, as hers were exploring every inch of the back of his head. He was dying to touch the rest of her body, but he really needed to take it slow. His hands were going more and more lower down her back, until he realized that it wasn't her back anymore.
Elizabeth was dizzy, and she was hungry. Hungry for his mouth, his neck, his shoulders. She remembered the feeling of his skin against hers, and she kissed him more passionately. She was having physical feelings to places she never even knew existed.
They continued kissing like that, in the middle if their bedroom, until Elizabeth glanced at the alarm clock on the desk. They've been kissing like that for 30 minutes. She suddenly back away from him.
"-Lucky you'll be late for you next class.
-It can't be that late. Holy shit, he said after looking at his watch, I have to leave. Sorry baby"
He said, kissing her quickly before running towards the door. Liz sat on the bed, waiting for her heart to calm down. His kisses were so good. They were passionate at first, but go slower, and slower, tender, gentle, leaving her asking for more and more. She passed her hand on her lips, still feeling Lucky's pressure on them. Her breath was returning to his normal beat, and her heart was slowly calming down.
She got to the library to get idea for the kitchen's mural. It would really be just on one wall, the one with the kitchen table, and she was going for something romantic. She found a picture of Paris, at night, with the Eiffel Tower in the background.
Walking back to their apartment, she came across Greg. He kissed her a the cheek, like she was an old friend. They talked a little, then he offered to walk her back to her apartment. Liz tensed up immediately. The thought of being trapped between walls alone with a stranger scared her to death. Instead she told him she was in the mood for a soft drink. He understood when she meant and took her to the Campus Cafe. They sat across the table, facing each other. She talked about Lucky, while he talked about his girl, Melissa. She was a senior, just like him. They were together since the senior year of high school, just like Lucky and Liz. After a while, Greg looked at Elizabeth. He was staring at her.
"-Do I have something stuck in my teeth? She asked.
-No why?
-Well you've been staring at me.
-Was I? Sorry about that. I was just trying to figure you out. I don't mean to pry, but I've rarely seen two teenager so much in love, like you and Lucky. You must have met each other a long time ago.
-Not really, I met him two years ago, wwhen I came to Port Charles to live with my sister and grandmother.
-You must have hit it off right away thhen?
-Wrong again. At first, Lucky couldn'tt stand me. He had the hots for my older sister Sarah.
-What made him change his heart? If yoou don't want to talk about it, it's ok you know, just say Greg, mind your business.
-Nah, I'm ok about it now. A year a haalf ago, on valentine's day, I was raped in the park. Lucky was the one who found me behind the bushes. He's been my guardian angel ever since.
-Oh Liz I'm so sorry. How stupid it waas of me to ask something like that. It must have been awful.
-It was, and for a while I couldn't deaal with it. But Lucky was always there when I needed him. He still is.
-That's why you didn't want to go to yoour apartment?
-You noticed?
-Yeah but I thought it was because Luckky was the jealous type. I understand now why he would beat up anyone who would come too close to you.
-He's been very protective of me, I admmit. But if it hasn't been for Lucky, I would be dead right now. I didn't want to live.
-Did they ever catch the guy who did thhis to you?
-Yeah, he's in jail as we speak."
They continue talking like that for a while. Elizabeth was feeling like she found a big brother. Greg was 6 years older than her. Without thinking, Elizabeth asked if him and his girlfriend would join Lucky and her for diner the next night. He said yes right away, glad to see that she was a little comfortable with him. At this moment, he vow to himself to be the one protecting her if Lucky was busy elsewhere.
