Can This Be True - Chapter 27

by Amber


Luke, Laura, and Lucky continued to hold each other. Tears were streaming down all of their faces. After a few minutes they pull away.

Laura: (looking into Lucky's eyes) Are you really here?

Lucky: (places his hand on her face) Yes, Mom, I'm here.

Luke: I missed you so much, Cowboy.

Lucky: I missed you too, Dad.

Liz is still standing near the door, holding Lacey.

Liz: Is there room for two more?

The three of them turn around.

Laura: Oh, my God.

Laura walked over to Liz and hugged her, then she looked at Lacey, the little girl she last saw when she was only a day old.

Laura: Oh Liz, she got so big.

Laura looked at Lacey, she had her father's piercing blue eyes and her mother's brown curls

LIz: Lacey Lynne, this is your grandma.

Liz handed her to Laura.

Laura: Hi, sweetie.

Lucky walked over to Liz and put his arm around her, and then Laura walked over to Luke with Lacey.

Luke: Hey, little Spencer, I'm your grandpa. (looks up at Lucky) You did good, son, she is beautiful just like her mother.

Lucky: That she is, but I am sure she is also very tired.

Laura: Can we put her down?

Liz: Of course.

Luke and Laura take Lacey upstairs and Liz and Lucky go over to the couch and sit down.

Lucky: They are going to spoil her rotten.

Liz: That's ok, they have two years to make up for.

Lucky: As much as I loved being with you in Puerto Rico, it is so nice to be home.

Liz: I know. Oh, Lucky, I have to call Gram or better yet I should go home to see her. Why don't I go and you can spend some time with your parents? Just let Lacey sleep and Gram can see her later.

Lucky: Ok, but please come back soon.

Liz: I will.

Liz and Lucky kiss and then Liz leaves to go home. Luke and Laura come back downstairs

Laura: Does she always fall asleep so easily?

Lucky: Always.

Luke: Hey, where did Liz go?

Lucky: She went to see Audrey, she will back later. So, tell me, are you two....

Luke: Yes, we are back together.

Lucky: Good, that is a nice welcome home present.

Luke: Well, enough about us--tell us about you and Liz, when's the wedding?
