Cusualties of Love

"I was running to you..." -Luka

Abby's POV.

It's chritsmas, and nothing can ruin this moment; but don't think I didn't forget about the whole Ames situation. Our lives are on the line..he could be "watching" us- right now. It was in the back of my mind. I knew it was making Luka crazy, he was trying to protect me from the "dangers of the world", as I put it a few days ago. Somehow I know he will never stop protecting me, how he will always have the need to protect me. I really am scared of what it's doing to Luka. He seems differant. As if he may loose his family for the second time. It wont happen. What is a disabled man going do?

"Merry Chistmas" I said, as I walked over to the couch. Handing him his gift..
"I thought I already got my present." He smiled
"Oh, you did, It's from Joe. We picked it out together." I smiled.
"Abby..." His vioce trailed off..He opened it. It was a picture frame stating: "Number 1 Dad." With a picture of all of us.

"Thank you.."He said, kissing me and walking over to the crib, picking up Joe."
"And thank you." He said, kissing Joe.

This moment was perfect. It seemed all too sureal that we were acually a family.

The Phone rang. Luka answered it...I played with Joe on the couch. He was getting so big.

Luka looked a little dismal after he got off the phone.

"What is it?" I asked.
"Morris is sick, they need me."
"I'll come with you," I said, standing up, placing joe in his play pen
"No...It's fine, stay with Joe, it will only be for a few hours." He reasured me.

He kissing and he left. I couldn't talk him out of it. I knew he really didn't want to go. Joe was getting tired to I put him in his room. He fell asleep quickly. I went to the couch, sat down and looked at the picture frame that Luka just got. We were a family now, a real family. It felt really good.

There was a knock at the door. I wasn't sure who it was. I answered it, it could be anyone. I opened the door slowly..

"Mr..Ames?" I asked outloud.
"Uh, Hi, Can I use your um, phone?" He asked,
"Sure." I smiled, shocked he was here. It was snowing and he couldn't find any other place to use a phone?

I took my cell phone, starting to get suspicious. my Back towards him..I felt a cold hand grab me. I screamed, maybe someone would hear me. He turned me around.

"What..WHAT are you doing?" I asked him?
"Don't talk." I saw a knife. I froze. I thought of Joe, of Luka
"Please, let me get Joe, my son." Tears in my eyes.
"I'm doing what I should have done along time ago.."He answered my question.

He took duck tape and carefully put the cold tape over my mouth. With the phone still in my hands, I dialed 911, hoping, praying, someone would hear me, Joe started crying. I started to fight back, fearing for my life.

Not in the mood of studying so Here's another update to another one of my fics..I just want to get these finished. I know the whole Ames vs. Kovac thing is now over, but who cares. hee.

Abby's POV

"Put Joe in the Crib." Ames ordered me.
"What?" I choked on my tears.
"Just do it!" He yelled, holding up the knife.
I kissed Joe on the head. There was nothing I could do. I put him in the crib.

"Now walk." He said. He took my keys that were sitting on the bookself. He gave them to me when We got downstairs.

'Get into the car" He barked at me.
I did what I was told. My mind was racing. I had to think fast.

"Damn it." I sighed.
"I think I have a flat tire."
"What?!" He yelled, As I started the car.

"I'll go take a look at it." He said, Looking at me carefully.
He got out of the car. Then what happened next was something that I never thought I would ever do. I stepped on the gas as he was kneeling down to look at the "flat tire." I ran him over. I couldn't believe I just did that.

care to share your thoughts?

[diamondsarepink]

Thanks.... here is an update


Abby's POV

I just stood there, motionless. My first reaction was to reach down and feel is he had a pulse. Should I? After all this man put me and my family through? I wasn't sure. But my consious gave in, and I did. He had a faint one. Before doing anything else, I ran as fast as I could to get Joe, I couldn't just leave him there. I called 911 and said a man, Curtis Ames has been hit by a car. My mind was racing. I couldn't believe I just hit him. He was armed, and I was defending myself. I reached down again to see if he had a pulse. He had none. The ambulance gave minutes later, rushing over to the scene.

"What we have here?" A medic asked me?

"I...I uh...he got hit by a car." I stammed, lying.

"Okay let's get him on a moniter, Abby." I had to help. A part of me felt bad, but god only knows what he was going to do with me.

The moniter went on. Flat line. He was dead.
I felt my heart skip a beat. I headed to County with Joe to get Luka.

Luka's POV

Why did Morris have to get sick again? I wish I was home with Abby and Joe. I wonder what they're doing. I couldn't wait to get home, and see them again. It was hard working with so much on my mind. Then I saw Abby, looking bewildered, tears in her eyes, looking around. I was in the middle of a trauma, I wanted to leave. So badly.

Abby's POV

I walk into County. Please God, what have I done. There were no witnesses and police where investigating already. I was the last one with him. Would self defence work? Yes. He was violating a rule of his restraining order. He had a knife. He was going to take god knows where. It was fine. I saw Luka, I ran to Trauma 3.

"Luka.."
"Abby, you okay?" He asked me.
"Yes..no..I need to talk to you." I stuttered.

He looked at Ray. He then looked at me.
'Go, It's fine. We got this." Ray said.
"We do?" Hope asked.

The paitent was crashing.

Without a word, I led Luka to the lounge and closed the door.


"What is it? It Joe okay?" Luka asked.
"Joe is fine, It's Ames."
"What?!" Luka asked, looking out the window.

"No. Luka..he came to the house, he had a knife, tried to put me in his car..."
"Abby wait-" He cut me off.

"I ran him over." I said slowly, tears falling. He just looked at me, with a blank look on his face. Just then, from the corner of my eye, I saw two police detectives standing at the door.

"Are you Abby Lockhart?" One of them asked.

anyhoo heres an update!

Abby's POV

I stood there. I wanted to come forward but I was too scared.

Cmon Abby, pull yourself together. You can do this. You did nothing wrong. Just tell the truth and it will be fine.

"We would like to ask you a few questions" The taller Officer said.
"In private." The other one finished.
"I'm her Husband, I can stay..It's alright." Luka said.

"I'm sorry, but I need to talk to your wife in private." The officer continued.

Luka looked at me and then at the officer. He reluctantly left silently.

"Now, Ms. Lockhart-
"It's Abby, and I work here" I corrected him.

"Okay, Abby..what exactly happened? One witness placed you at the scene."

"Cutis Ames was a paitent of Luka's. There was a lawsuit when he lost the use of his arm, he's handicapped. He came to my apartment. He had a Knife and he was trying to get me in my car." I said slowly.

"That doesn't explain how he ended up dead." The cop snapped.

This is it, Abby. Just tell the truth.

"We got into the car. I told him I had a flat tire to distract him. He got out the car.." I stoped.

"And...?

"As he bent down to look, I..I turned the ignition and..I..I ran him over." Thank god. It was out. I didn't want to cry. I have never killed someone, well, intentionally.

"You ran him over? And were you sure of his intentions?" He asked.

"No...but it's obvious they weren't good." I snapped back.

"You killed a man. A man that you didn't have any idiea what he was going to do to you." He said.

"He wanted to take me god knows where! He's crazy, look at him!"

"I would, but you killed him." The officer snapped.

"Hey, who's side are you on?" I asked, annoyed. What was this?

"It's clear to me that this was more than "self defence."
You obviously had some personal issues against this man."

"Well yeah, he's been harasing my family ever since!" I said.

"Put your hands behind your back. Your under arrest."

"For what? Wait. I was defending myself! what is this here?" I called for Luka.

"Luka!" I called.

"Anything you say can or will be used in public...."
