Lucas's POV
The next day
Mid-day 12pm

I walked up the path way to Andy and Robert's place. Robert must've been at work because I didn't see his car parked. I went up to the door step and rang the door bell.

Andy had come to the door she looked like she had just woken up.

Lucas: Sorry if I woke you.  I just wanted to talk to Vic.
Andy: She's sleep right now. If you'd like you can stay til she gets up.
Lucas: Actually can I talk to you.
Andy: Sure come on in.

Andy and I set on the couch. To have someone like Andy, not a best friend or my girl, made it so much easier to talk to her.

Lucas: Well this last month has been hard. It's not just the guilt I can't seem to shake, but the fact that my doctor told me I need a surgery to repair my hip. He said therapy has done all it will do till I get the surgery. I feel hopeless. What about my job how will I be there for Vic?
Andy: Tell her what you just told me. That's being there for her. She wants to know you're still in this. You and her will pull through this together. Take it day by day. She needs you and soon a small human being will need you.
Lucas: Thanks for this. I'm guessing Robert's at work?
Andy: Yes
Lucas: I owe him a big apology
Andy: he already forgives you. Just get your family back.
Lucas: Are you cool if I wait here until she gets here?
Andy: That's fine with me I'm going to start on lunch.

A few hours later
Vic's POV
I walked down the hall to find Andy. In the kitchen were Lucas and Andy laughing and cooking. I had walked over a little more. They both stopped and looked up at me.

Vic: Hey

Andy grabbed the knife and onion from Lucas. She gave his shoulder a little shove.

Lucas: Hey I was really hoping we could talk?
Vic: Yes you wanna go outside?
Lucas: Sure

Vic: Hey Andy you good? I'll be back in to help you soon.
Andy: Take your time I got this.
