| "Breaking the Rules" Chapter 3 |
| Marie watched as Helena smiled and then made her exit back to the mansion. Lucky turned towards Marie, who looked as if she were in deep thought. " So, Marie...I guess we'll be working together." Lucky quickly spat out. " Yes, I suppose so." Marie answered, still not focasing on him. " Are you worried about Nikolas or something?" " Yes, Helena told me such wonderful things about him. He sounds so smart and handsome. I can't wait to meet him, I have already fallen in love with the idea of him. It's kind of strange, I've never met him, but it feels like I already know him...but I guess I shouldn't be telling you all this." Marie trailed off. " No, it's alright, I know what you mean. I can't remember some things at times, it feels like I'm leading a double life. I just can't figure it all out." " Oh, I'm sorry Lucky, but do you have family here?" " Yes, my mom, dad, and sister. Where is your family?" " Dead, they were murdered, a long time ago." Marie's eyes feel onto the cold tile floor, she felt slightly akward sharing this with someone she just met. Marie felt Lucky place a hand on her shoulder. " I'm your family now...well me and Helena." " Don't forget Nikolas." " Of course Nik..." Lucky was suddenly cut off by someone entering the door. AT LUCKY AND LIZ'S APARTMENT... Elizabeth got out of the shower and wrapped her towel tightly around her small frame. She quickly got dressed and sat on her bed. Liz brushed her wet strands of hair back and looked at the telephone. She wondered why Lucky had been gone so long. Visits with Sonny usually last only an hour or less, Sonny was a busy man. " Why dosen't he call me?" Liz spoke aloud to no one. She glanced at the phone once more and considered calling Sonny. Then decided not to, Sonny would not want to be interupted. Liz did decide she had to talk to a friend, Nikolas. Liz stood up and walked into the bathroom to dry her hair. Lucky looked over to the door to see Nikolas standing. He seemed alarmed to see Marie there. Then he was pushed into the room by Helena, who had a look of pure pleasure spread upon her face. Chapter 4 |
