Unexpected Surprise, ch 48 (Skyelo)

At the General Hospital—Lorenzo, Alan, Rae, Monica, AJ, Edward, Ned, Tea, and Tracy were waiting for news about Skye.

"Why haven't we heard anything?" Lorenzo said. "It's only been an hour. I'm sure they will make it."

"They better make it," Rae said.

"You truly do love Skye, don't you?" Lorenzo asked.

"Yes, I do," Rae replied.

"We want Skye to be better too," Edward added.

"Really? You're not going to kick her out of your family now that the truth is out?" Lorenzo asked.

"No," Edward replied, beginning to get upset.

"Daddy, let's take you home. We will have Alan call us when we have news about Skye," Tracy said.

"No, I want to stay here. Skye has to be okay. You all have to be okay," Edward said.

"Father, what is going on with you?" Alan asked.

"I've been making sure this family is taken care of because I'm dying. I have skin cancer," Edward said.

"How long has this been going on?" Alan inquired.

"For a while now," Edward responded.

"Why didn't you say anything?" Tracy asked.

"Because I don't want to be treated with chemotherapy. I'm ready to go see your mother," Edward said.

"That's why you've been so supportive of me," AJ said.

"Yes, I want to make amends with you. AJ, I know you can do this with Michael. I believe in you," Edward said.

"Thank you, Grandfather," AJ said.

"I love you," Edward expressed.

"I love you too," AJ replied as they embraced.

"Father, are you sure you don't want treatment?" Alan asked.

"Yes, Alan. I'm proud of you too. You're a good son," Edward said.

"Thank you, I love you," Alan responded.

"I love you too," Edward said.

"Daddy," Tracy said.

"Tracy, I know you can run ELQ. I believe in you, but that's not all you need. It's time to move on from Luke. You should be with someone better," Edward advised.

"Thanks, Daddy. I love you too," Tracy said, sharing a hug.

"Emily, I'm glad you're a doctor. We finally have another doctor in the family," Edward said.

"Thanks, Grandfather," Emily replied.

"Ned, I want you to look over this family," Edward said.

"I will, Grandfather," Ned assured.

"Skye is welcome in this family and her children, especially because one day she's going to need us when Lorenzo hurts her," Edward stated.

"I will not hurt Skye. I love her. Yes, my lifestyle isn't what you agree with, but I love Skye," Lorenzo said.

"I hope so," Edward replied as Dr. Kelly entered.

"How are Skye and the twins?" Lorenzo asked as Tea took her brother's hand.

"Skye is okay. We stopped the bleeding and you have two girls. They're okay so far but need monitoring and will have to stay here for a while," Dr. Kelly said.

"Thank you. Can I see Skye?" Lorenzo asked.

"Yes," Dr. Kelly replied.

Lorenzo left.

"Thank God Skye is okay," Alan said.

"Yes," Monica agreed.

At Alexis's room—Alexis was in bed when Ned entered.

"Is Skye okay? And the twins?" Alexis asked.

"Yes. They're both fine. Alexis, were you driving?" Ned inquired.

"I don't remember all of it, but I think I was," Alexis replied.

"This isn't good," Ned said.

"I don't think Lorenzo will really go after me," Alexis said.

"Alexis, Skye may not want to be part of your family," Ned warned.

"I know," Alexis admitted.

Nikolas then entered.

"Can I talk to Alexis alone?" Nikolas asked.

"Sure," Ned said.

Ned left.

"Alexis, don't worry—the evidence is taken care of," Nikolas assured.

"You played with it?" Alexis asked.

"No, I paid a cop to," Nikolas answered. "You're not going down for this. Skye and the twins are fine."

"Thank you. I do hope Skye wants to be part of our family," Alexis said.

"If she does, she's welcome in our family," Nikolas replied.

"Thank you so much," Alexis said.

"We are Cassadine. We take care of each other," Nikolas concluded.
