Chapter 8
The group stood outside still, thinking about Lucky when they heard a noise
coming from Lucky's room. The group walked inside to find Lucky out of bed and
leaning against the wall coughing.
Nikolas: "Lucky! Lucky, are you ok?"
Laura: "Oh my god! Lucky? Are you having trouble breathing honey?" Lucky nods,
trying to wipe the water from him eyes and sags down against the wall.
Luke: "Uh… I know that look cowboy, somebody get the wastebasket."
Nikolas runs around the bed and grabs it, then hands it to Lucky who proceeds to
vomit into it several times. Nikolas has already moved around Lucky, rubbing his
back and not even noticing.
Laura had tears steaming down her face: "Lucky honey? I'm going to get a doctor,
I'll be right back."
Lucky's response was covered by the sound of gagging once again. Laura ran out
of the room right into Dr. Quartermaine.
Laura: "Alan! Come on, you have to help Lucky!" Alan followed Laura back into
the room and caught site of Lucky holding onto the basket for dear life.
Alan: "Ok let me guess, you're feeling nauseous?" Lucky nods, his eyes squeezed
shut.
Alan: "Ok, are you done Lucky? Think we can move you back to bed?"
Lucky (very weakly): "Sure…" Alan nods.
Alan: "Luke, Nikolas can you help me here?" Nikolas takes the basket from Lucky
and disposes of it while Luke and Alan help Lucky to his feet and slowly walk
him back over to the bed and lay him down.
Alan: "Ok. Now, I'm just going to take your vitals and temp." Laura and Liz have
moved closer together and close to the bed now looking at Lucky. He was pale and
looked thin… and he looked like he was in pain.
Liz: "Doctor… he looks like he's in pain. Can you do anything about that?"
Alan nodded and talked to the nurse that just walked in. They put him on an I.V.
of a painkiller that worked quickly. Lucky was feeling lightheaded and distant,
as the drugs took over. He soon sank into sleep.
Luke: "Laura, I think we should go check on Lesley and Lulu."
Laura ran her hand threw Lucky's hair once more and left the room with Luke.
Nikolas: "Um… I'll leave you two alone…" Nikolas quickly left the room. Liz
looked at the door and sighed. She sat down on the chair next to the bed and
took Lucky's hand in hers. He was still sleeping, but seemed at peace. She
smiled at that.
Liz: "Lucky… honey, you have to get better for me…" A tear rolled down her
cheek. "You really scared me today… God… Lucky… I… I Love you…"
