Liz left her house knowing she hurt Audrey. She understood how Audrey felt, but Liz just hoped one day she would understand and be able to forgive her. More importantly, Liz hoped that Audrey would love her baby.Liz made her way to Laura's house. Before she left her own house, Liz called Luke and asked him if he would meet her at Laura's. Luke and Liz have become really close since Lucky's death, so when Liz told him that she had something really important to tell him and Laura, he agreed to meet her. Once at the door, Liz took a deep breath and rang the doorbell. She had no idea how Luke and Laura were going to react to the news. Laura opened the door.
Laura: Hi, Liz, come on in. It's great to see you.
Liz: You too.
Laura: So what's going on? What do you have to tell me?
Liz: Well, if it is all the same to you, I would like to wait until Luke gets here.
Laura: Luke?
Liz: Yeah. I am sorry I did not tell you, but I called him and asked him to meet me here, because what I have to say concerns the both of you.
Laura: Ok...then we'll wait for Luke.
A few minutes later, Luke made it to the Spencer house and Laura let him in.
Laura: Hi.
Luke: Laura.
Luke and Laura go to sit down in the couch.
Luke: Ok, Elizabeth. You got us both here, so what is going on?
Liz: I had all of this mapped out in my head...how I was going to tell you...(starts to cry) But now I don't know how.
Laura: Liz, you know we love you, you can tell us anything.
Luke: Yes, anything, Liz.
Liz: (takes a deep breath) Umm...come next year there is going to be...a new addition to this family.
Luke and Laura sat in silence.
Laura: Wait a minute, are you saying...what I think you are saying?
Liz: I'm pregnant...with Lucky's baby.
Luke: Wow, I am.....speechless.
Liz: Look, I need you two to know that I loved Lucky with all my heart. I still love him. This baby is part of him. I have decided that I want to keep this baby, our baby. I want you two to be a part of his or her life. I hope that you will support me on this.
Laura: Oh Liz, please forgive us, we are just suprised.
Liz: Yeah, well, you are not the only ones.
Luke: Wow, me a grandpa.
Liz: Does that mean?
Laura: Elizabeth, the baby you are carrying is a part of my son. And (crying) since he is no longer here, this baby is a blessing. You have our support, anything you need we're here.
Luke: Yes, always. (Luke goes over to LIz and hugs her).
Liz: Thank you.
Laura hugs Liz and the three go over to sit on the couch.
Laura: So tell me, how far along are you?
Liz: Oh well, I haven't been to a doctor, I just found out, but Lucky and I were only together once. It was a couple of days before the fire when we were in New York...So that would put me at about 9 weeks. (Starts to cry) It was our first time, Lucky took all my pain away that night. He made me feel special and wanted. I did not know then that our first time was also going to be our last.
Laura: (puts her arm around Liz) Oh, baby.
Liz: But now I have this baby and I know I am only 16, but I have to do this...for Lucky.
Luke: And we will be here with you every step of the way.
Laura: Liz...does your grandmother know?
Liz: Yeah...but she is very upset
Laura: Well, just give her some time. She'll come around.
Liz: I hope so. I really need her help. Oh, just so you know I had my third follow-up HIV test the other day and it came out negative.
Luke: Well, we are so glad about that, but even if the test came back the other way we would still love you and your baby.
Liz: You mean that, you really love the baby?
Luke: Of course, it is a part of Lucky. And now he will live on through his child.
Liz: I wish he was here, this baby is never going to know what an amazing person Lucky was. (crying)
Laura: The baby will know, we will make sure of that.
Liz: Thank you both so much.
Laura: Thank you for giving us the precious gift.
Liz, Luke, and Laura are all crying and holding each other. Liz then leaves to go home. When she gets home, she finds Audrey waiting for her.
