Chapter Ten

Lucky was looking out his window when Lizzie walked in. �Lucky are you all
right?� she asked moving beside him.

�I don�t know Liz. What is the truth?� he asked.

�About who you are? Lucky that is simple. You�re my friend and you stood by me.
I�m going to do the same for you,� she said gently putting her arm around him.

�Lizzie, what would I do without you?� He asked.

�I don�t know,� she said. �You certainly couldn�t tie your shoes.� Lizzie bent
down and tied his shoe. Lucky started to laugh and then he broke down in tears.
He trying to believe his father but the words from Lasha�s letters kept coming
back. Lizzie held him as he cried. Hating Laura Spencer for destroying him and
everything he believed in.

Downstairs Nikolas was watching Lu play on the floor. Alexis walked up to him
and asked. �Are you all right?�

�Alexis, if you would have told me. I would have protected you from grandmother
and I�m sorry about my attitude toward you. I have been such fool.� Nikolas
said.

�You�re not a fool. Stefan and Laura are.� Alexis said.

�You believe that it was her then don�t you?� Nikolas asked.

�I don�t know but with Helena in the act nothing surprises me any more.� Alexis
said.

�I�m going up and talk to Lucky. How about coming up with me? He might need a
friend right now,� she said turning to the stairs.

�He wouldn�t want me around. He didn�t even look at me when I was up there the
last time.� Nikolas said.

�He is confused as you are about all of this. His life like yours has been blown
apart. Maybe you two can find a middle ground to rebuild your lives.� Alexis
told him grabbing the boy by the arm. �It was time this war between them ended,�
she thought.

Lucky and Lizzie were sitting on his bed talking when the two entered. �We
decided to check up on you. Lucky are you all right?� Alexis asked him sitting
at his desk chair.

�I don�t know. I don�t even what to call you?� he asked.

�Alexis.� she said.

�Alexis. What is going on and why?� Lucky asked.

�I don�t Lucky. I wish I did because then we would know what to expect. I do
know from Mikkos will. The first born from his children get the rule the family
and you are my son, making you The Cassadine.� she said.

�I don�t want it. Nikky has been training for this his whole life. Give it to
him not me. I just want to be plain old Lucky Spencer,� he said.

�Plain? Lucky that is impossible. You�re Luke�s son and plain isn�t part of the
package.� Nikolas said joining him on the bed.

�This is weird. I hated you when you were my brother but now I don�t know what
think any more.� Lucky said looking at him.

�How about us just being friends this is going to be bad enough without us
arguing.� he said.

�All right.� Lucky said holding out his good hand. They shock hands and for the
first time smiled at each other. Alexis looked at them in shock. �Now if the
rest of us could put the past behind us that easy.� She thought.
