It has been a few weeks since Luke's surgery. I am sure he has healed and was doing his own thing now. Not a day goes by that I think of him. I'm being honest, I do miss him. I should have listened to Hannah back in college. LeClaire even thought we loved each other. I was currently treating a little boy who had strep. It was Tuesday so I was back in the childen's clinic. I was thinking about quitting working in the emergency room though. It's unneccesary even though I love being a nurse. I guess I love working with children more.

"Give him penicillin for about two weeks and he should be better by then. If not, come back in and we will give him a stronger antibiotic." I explained to his mom.

"Okay, thank you." She replied. I smiled. "You're welcome." I told her before walking out of the room.

I walked over to the desk and started filling his prescription. "You got a dozen roses." Hannah came over holding a bouquet of red roses. I gave her a weird look. "There's a note attached. I didn't read as it is not my busniess." Hannah shrugged, handing me the flowers. I stopped what I was doing and opened the little note.

Hey, Lilly. Since you work in the emergency room I knew where to send this. Hopefully it gets to you. I just want to thank you for helping me through my injury and such. give me a call sometime... It would be nice to catch up not being in a hospital or at a concert. - Luke (XXX-XXX-XXXX)

I smiled while reading the note. "Who is it from?" Hannah asked. "Luke." I answered, looking up at her. She had a smirk on her face. "Now's your chance." Hannah responded. "He has two kids and is divorced. I doubt he is ready for any relationship. I know I wasn't back in college when I was crushing on Luke." I said with a frown.

"Hunter was a jerk to you. You know that and I know that. Luke is completely different." Hannah told me.

I used to date Hunter back in college before I met Luke. Hunter used to be so sweet and completley loving but something changed. He hung out with the wrong people I guess, and he loved to party. Then the relationship changed and he was starting to get abusive. That's when I left. I haven't dated since. My mom and my step dad, who i consider my real dad anyway, never knew about Hunter which I am glad.

"is that why you never told Luke?" Hannah asked. I nodded slowly.

Hannah sighed. "I don't wanna talk about it. I'm going to work right now." I changed the subject before grabbing the prescription for the little boy and walked into the exam room.

I was currently at home thinking whether or not I should call Luke. I just quit my position in the emergency room as I loved working in the children's clinic more. I slowly picked up my phone before dialing Luke's number. It rang for a few minutes before someone answered.

"Hello?" Luke answered.

"Hey Luke, it's Lilly." I responded.

"Oh hey, Lilly pad. I assume you got my flowers." Luke said calling me by the nick name he gave me in college. I smiled.

"Yes I did. The flowers are beautiful." I said.

"I have a few days off this upcoming week. Want to have lunch one of those days?"

"That sounds great, I call in Friday and say I can't come in?" I asked.

"That's good. The boys will be at their mama's so that works out great." Luke answered.

"Your sons are adorable. Bo looks just like you." I told him. I heard Luke chuckle.

"They are both a mess. With the divorce, they didn't change or anything. They are the same happy kids. Bo loves his mama and I am sure he misses us being together but I don't know what goes through that mind of his." Luke spoke.

"He is adorable either way. So, how is your arm doing?" I asked.

"It's doing okay. Feels like I never had surgery."

"That's great!" I then heard shuffling going on in the background.

"Sorry to cut it short, but I gotta go. I see you next Friday then?" Luke said.

"Sounds like a plan. Bye, Luke."

"Bye, Lilly pad."

So we figured out why Lilly never told Luke about her crush on him. Hunter is her ex. Do you think Hunter will be apart of her life again? What are your thoughts on Hunter anyway? Let me know down in the comments! I hoped you all enjoyed!
