This lonely night...

****************************************************
Hi everybody I`m totally new here, and I´m just a recent Luby fan.. But I thought I was gonna try writing this story anyway, so go easy on me ;)
****************************************************

Abby had been flipping channels for the better part of an hour, she couldn’t sleep, she had been trying for the last two hours, but without any luck, she had to much on her mind.
She kept flipping channels..Isaac Mizrahi on Oxygen, Emeril on the Food Network, yet another do it yourself how on HGTV, and the upper channels had less to offer than the ones she had passed two minutes ago.

"This is unbelievable, 85 channels and there is nothing on." Abby thought to herself.

She was about to flip the thing off when the phone rang.

"Hello?"

"Hey."

She could hear noise in the background, some music, glasses clinging,
muffled conversation. She had difficult to hear who was on the other line.. She could only guess..

"Luka, is that you?”

“Yeah it’s meee!”

This was interesting, he sounded odd, and why would Luka call her, the two of them hadn’t had a normal conversations since their break up a little over 5 months ago.


“Where are you? And why are you calling me at 2 am."

"Bar."

"Are you drunk?"

"Maybe."

Not that Luka was Abby’s problem, but she felt obligated to act, especially if he had chosen to call her of all people. At the moment he had closer friends like both Susan and Mark. He could hade called either of them.

"I'm going to come get you. What bar?"

"O'Leary's."

He hung up the phone before she could say anything else. She knew the day had been rotten; actually the whole week had been rotten for everyone at the hospital. They had to deal with four different car crashes and one of them involved a school bus. They had been struggling to keep as many kids alive as possible, but it had been a really rotten day, and five kids had died.. It was Friday and Luka had been working overtime before leaving the hospital around 11 pm.
And guessing from the sound of him, he had been at
O'Leary's since then. This was going to take some effort to get him home in
one piece, Abby thought why struggling with her jeans and t-shirt and was then out the door..

She pulled up to the bar and noticed that Luka was one of three people left
inside. Luka was at the stool on the end. Half sitting, half hanging
onto it for dear life it seemed. His head was resting on his arm on the
mahogany bar top.

“Just breathe.” She said to herself. This was going to be more difficult than she first thought.

This was not something that she was use to while dating.. Abby only knew of some of Lukas drunken stoppers that sometimes he could be a little belligerent, sometimes weepy, and sometimes horny. Most of these situations had happened in filthy bars with some strange people Luka knew from his first time in the US and usually it wasn’t that bad.
She just didn't know what to expect this night.

She walked in the door and over to where Luka was being supported by
the one foot resting on the brass railing and the other firmly planted on
the bottom rung of the stool. He hadn't noticed her yet. She put her hand
on his back and leaned down to his ear.

"Luka”, she whispered.

He lazily rolled his head from one side to the other, while it never left his arm. His eyelids were mere slits, taking in only a little light. It probably didn't matter much, because whatever he was seeing was most likely
either blurred or doubled.

"My Abbyy herhe to tak me home?"

His words were barely coherent. He must
have finished whatever was in his hand when he hung up with her. She motioned to the bar keep and asked him for the bill. Luka hadn't moved since his last question, other than shutting his eyes completely. Abby guessed this would be a weepy night.
The barkeep brought over the bill. Abby had to look at the receipt twice.
"A hundred bucks? What the hell did he drink?" She got out her Visa and
slid it over. She tried rousing Luka again.

"Luka, can you stand up?"

He half moaned and rolled his head a couple of times, then pushed himself up
with the help of the bar to a semi-standing position. It seemed to take his head a few minutes to realize his body had moved. He arched his head back
and sighed deeply. By this time, Abby had paid the outrageous bar tab and had her arm around his waist turning him towards the door.

"Luka, if you're going to puke you better do it before we get in the cab. You’re not embarrassing me, okey?"

"Aabbyyy thang."

She managed to get him out of the bar, into the car and belted in. She walked around to the other side. “Just Breathe.” She got in and of they went.
A few blocks into the trip Luka came around.

"Abby, where the hell are we?"

"I'm taking you home. You called me."

"Oh yeah." There was a long pause like he was trying to remember the
conversation. "Abby?"

"What."

"I don't want to go home."

"Luka, it's nearly 3 am. All the bars are closed. Where do you suppose you want to go?"

"Anywhere, just not home." There was a sense of sadness in his voice. She knew how he felt. Before her soberness there had been more than one occasion where a night at
the bar ended and the last thing she wanted to do was go home to an empty apartment.

She sighed and pleaded with the taxi driver to change direction, who later made a u-turn at the next intersection...

After the thirty-minute drive, Luka had begun to sober. It
took very little effort to get him out of her car and into her building. He leaned head first against the wall as she opened her door. She walked in, with him close behind.

"Take your shoes off, Luka."

He tried kicking them off like a kid, but lost his balance and reached out for her. She caught him just before sending his head into the armoire. He leaned against it while she bent down to finish the job he started.

"Go sit down. I'll get some Tylenol.

Luka staggered over to the couch and plunged into it. His head rested on it's back, eyes closed again. Abby returned with a bottle of water and two Tylenol.

"Here." She handed him the pills and water. He took them and then set the bottle on the coffee table.

She sat back on the couch next to him for a minute. She was exhausted from dragging him around for the past hour and a half, on top of it being close to 4 am. She shut her eyes and let her body relax a minute. Her mind was still racing.

“What was he thinking, going out and getting trashed like this?" Abby knew it had been a tuff week, but this was not like Luka at all.
I need to get him a pillow and blanket. And the big bowl, just in case.

In mid thought she felt something on her thigh. It was a hand. It had started at her knee and inched its way up to her upper thigh. Her eyes opened and she was faced with her Luka right in front of her. He was just inches away from her face.

“What is he doing?? Okay so we started out weepy and now he's onto horny. I should stop this. He's drunk. He won't remember any of this in the morning. What am I thinking we aren’t even taking right now?!”

Again, her thought was interrupted. This time it was by two wet lips sucking on her neck. “OH MY GOD!” Her eyes immediately shot opened.
He ran the tip of his tongue moved higher up to the entrance to her mouth, testing to see if she would respond. She tried to turn her head in the opposite direction but somehow her body had other ideas. Luka opened his mouth under her. Her tongue reached into his mouth and massaged his. She pushed in harder and further and sucked on his bottom lip. It felt to good to stop, her body was screaming for more, yet her brain kept her from giving in.

Their break up had been nasty, and Lukas words had hurt a lot, she knew she had other men lined up to date her, and Carter was one of them. But she wasn’t interested in either of them, the only reason why she hadn’t given her relationship with Luka an other go, was because she was to proud. “You’re not that pretty, you’re not that special”, his word was stuck on her mind. She knew they both said things in anger, and that everything was not the truth. What Abby needed was reassurance for her insecurities and Luka had not yet given her that. Calling her at 2 am in the night wasted was yet another negative event that needed to be put to the “I don’t think so“ list. But she wanted him.. Real bad..

His hands were at her hips now pressing her into the couch, his thumbs into her pelvis. He stroked her tongue with his. His hands traveled from Abby’s hair to her chest and kept going down.

“Stop!” Abby said, using both arms to push Luka away from her.

“ I don’t know what’s going on with you, but this is not what either of us want (at least not in this state) Abby said while pushing down her t-shirt and getting up from the coach.

Luka remained quiet while Abby stood watching him half lying on the coach.

“Why did you call me?” Abby asked with a soft voice.

Luka remained quiet, which was starting to piss Abby off.

“Did something happened, you’re obviously upset?” Abby pressed on, getting more anguished of the non-responsive Luka.

“Or did you just want to get laid, and thought I’d be a easy prey, or what!?”

“ I needed someone”… Luka said very quietly looking down at the carpet…Abby looked at Luka and calmed down a bit.

“You just needed someone”?, she asked feeling a little bit hurt by the things he was saying, or not saying.

“Not just anybody Abby..you. Everything around me seems to be falling apart. First I screwed things up with you, the best thing that ever happened to me, then I keep on losing patents and last night"..

Luka stood up and walked towards the window.

“Last night what?” asked Abby and followed him to the window. She put her hand on his back trying to show her support that she was ready to listen.

“I lost my father”….
