(*Hey everyone,wow,so stoked about the feedback Ive gotten so far on this fic. I can honestly say I know as much as you do about wehre this story is going, in fact whilst I am typing this I havent even started on the chapter you are going to read...impulse writer,thats me. But again,thank you, thank you for all the rad comments,I love you guys, I do.*)
Chapter 2 ****************
It was a rare day that the four friends had the day off so they were making the most of it. Luka and Doug were shooting a game of pool whilst Abby and Carol were busy preparing some lunch. Well Carol was cooking and Abby was watching, after all this time she still couldnt cook anything that went beyond Mac&Cheese and coffee.
"You know I really should help you Carol", Abby insisted. Carol decided to be as tactful as she could be, "Um Abby,last time you helped me do a baked potatoes and cheese dish, the potatoes exploded in the oven...my oven."
Abby blushed at the memory, "Well I still maintain that it was a faulty oven." She folded her arms across her chess putting on her "Im usually always right" stance.
Carol snorted as she took a sip of her wine, " Yeah well I still maintain that you cant cook." Carol burst out laughing.
"Yeah laugh it up Ross." Abby pouted. Carol went about the kitchen stirring,talking and laughing. The Kovac's and Ross's had standing engagements on their Saturday's off, they'd always get together at either Abby and Luka's place or Doug and Carol's place. Today they were dirtying up the Ross' kitchen.
Abby glanced back over the counter at Doug and Luka who were argueing the merits of one of Doug's shots. Luka was crying foul whilst Doug mantianed it was perfectly legit.
"Come on Luka,when youre good, youre good." Doug said as he pocketed the 5 dollars on the table.
Luka rolled his eyes, "Yeah and when youre Doug, you cheat."
"Oh stop pouting you big Croat, we all know you hate to lose but we all know I always whoop your ass."
"In your dreams Doug...rematch and this time Im keeping my eyes on you." Luka narrowed his eyes for added effect.
Abby and Carol had been watching the exchange with feigned interest and definate amusement, "You'd think after what...20 years those two would finally grow out of their competitive natures." Carol said as she added more salt to her sauce.
"COme one, those two? Their both hopeless cavemen, always wanting to impress "the women"" Abby mocked in Luka's accent.
Carol nodded sympathetically, "Dont I know it, god Abby you should have seen them in their first years on campus. I mean you only got to know Luka in his third year but man oh man, even back then him and Doug had that whole competition thing going. Together they were unmatched but against each other, it was like seeing two little boys bicker over the playground." Carol grinned as she thought back about their fleeting youth and how soem things changed and some things stay exactly the same.
"Yeah, we sure had some good times." Abby thought back wistfully to a more carefree time.
"Hey Abby, can you believe we've know each other for the better part of 25 years?"
"Nope, feels like just yesterday Luka and I met, fell in love, fell out of love,fell back in love, got married,started at County ect."
Smiling broadly Carol couldnt help it, "yeah I remember you and Luka in the beginning, i though you hated him,well until I walked in on you two in the supply closet."
"Abby blushed and looked over at her still amazingly handsome husband, "yeah well what can you say except that after that we stuck to neuro, its way more comfortable and besides you shouldt talk about us being caught out, I remember a few times you and Doug "pinched the cat in the dark".
Blushing Carol continued to studiously stir the marinera sauce. 'Yeah well what else can you say except I agree with you about Neuro being more comfortable.
Abby inhaled, "Oh you slut."
Carol countered with "you whore."
Both women started laughing,it echoeing through the Ross house. *** Ross and Luka looked up towards where the laughter were coming from, "Any idea what those two are finding so funny?" Luka asked.
"Nothing good I bet, you know what those two are like when they are together, times like that when we men have to stand together." Doug put his arm around Luka's shoulder.
Luka smirked, "Nice try, you still owe me a twenty after I kicked your butt."
Doug sighed but nonetheless handed Luka a twenty. "Yeah well it was a lucky shot."
"Or maybe its just becasue Im better."
"Pffft, yeah right Luka."
And so the bickering continued, it was the call of their wives that made them hungrily stalk towards the counter where Carol and Abby were busy dishing the food up onto the plates.
"Hey anyone know where the kids are?" Carol looked around the open plan kitchen,dining and living room."
"I think they are listening to music in Mike's room and probably preparing for tonight's concert." Abby said as she handed Luka a beer as he stood behind her with his one hand around her waist.
"Yeah, you should have seen her trow all the moves at Luka when she asked him." Abby said as her hand absentmindedly played with Luka's.
Doug smirked, 'yeah I told her she should just use that Kovac charm.'
Luka scowled, "Yeah well she gave me THE look and youre wrong if you think she got it from me, her mother has THE look and she inherited it in spades."
Abby kissed Luka on the tip of his nose, "Poor baby."
It was then that Carol cleared her throat, "Geez guys, ease up on the PDA."
"yeah your making her jealous." Doug chipped in.
Carol turned around and smacked Doug on the arm, "Am not." The adults all dissolved into fits of laughter.
*****************************
Mika and Michael were in his room talking about tonight's concert. Michael had gotten them really good tickets, practically in front.
Michael Ross was every girls dream and he knew it, he had a thick head of hair, so black it was almost blue black, he inherited his mothers delicate features but it in no way detracted from his raw masculine beauty. He had these malt whiskey coloured eyes with flecks of gold in them. His personality was pretty impressive, to say he was a womaniser would be wrong, he respected women immensely its just that he had difficulty keeping one for more than a few weeks. The only girl that has been a constant in his life was Mika. They had literally grown up together. He was two years older than her and had assumed an almost brotherly role in her life, though noy quite, there was always something which kept him from thinking of her as a sister, he didnt quite know what it was though.
"So anyway, I reckon if we go to Maurice's Diner at about 6 we can have some pizza there and from ther we can make a mission to teh concert which is like a block away." Mika said this as she flicked her fringe out of her eyes.
"Sounds good.I really cant wait to see that show, its going to be so cool, great music,great company and lots hot girls."
Mika rolled her eyes, "Jeez you really are a rootrat arent you? I thought you were dating Stacey or Linda or was it Mandy? I never can keep track."
Michael playfully threw the pillow at Mika, "Yeah like you can talk, I thought you were dating Jimmy."
"Hey,the onyl reason I'm not dating him anymore is becasue SOMEONE did a background check on him and by someone I mean Frank. You know what him and dad are like."
Shrugging his shoulders Michael got up to get a clean T-shirt from his cupboard, "Yeah well, he wasnt right for you anyway."
"Unbelievable!"Mika exclaimed, "do NOT tell me you have also joined club Protect Mika's Virtue at All Costs.I really can take care of myself, you realise that."
"Sure you can." mIchael retorted as he non-chalantly took of his old shirt and replace dit with a new semi- clean one."
"Yeah well I dont need you to protect me.Come on its time for lunch."
Michael became pale, " Oh you dont think your mum cooked do you?"
Smiling Mika put Michael at ease, "Dont worry I made sure to tell your mother to not let mine anywhere near anything that can be cooked,boiled,steamed or baked."
Just as they walked out of Michale's room his phone gave a shrill notice of someone calling. "Hello...oh hey...nah nothing much...yeah yeah i know...tonight...nah i cant,going to a concert with a friend...okay,maybe afterwards? Excellent see you later Jody. Oh you know I will."
Mika sighed, "So whose that, new flavor of the month?"
"yeah yeah,keep going sparky" Michale said as he pushed Mika in front of him.
"Hey all Im saying is that you would have to look far and wide for a girl you HAVENT dated."Mika giggled.
Again Michael playfully shoved her, "You shut up."
"Mika turned around and slugged him on the shoulder, "No you shut up!" And so they bickered their way to the kitchen table where their parents were waiting.
"Oh boy looks like they are at it again", Doug exclaimed. "yeah like they will ever stop." Added Carol.
"Now children play nicely or no lunch for you." Abby admonished as Luka simply looked on in enjoyment. It was good to have friends and family around.
Mika and Michael finally settled as they went to sit at opposite sides of the table. they still continued trading insult under their breath.
When everyone was seated Luka started to say grace, seconds after he finished Michael uttered a growl-howl, "Ow Shi....taki mushrooms." He quickly covered as his mother looked at him sternly. Someone had kicked him...hard. He looked over at Mika who was innocently looking away, "This is great tasting pasta aunt Carol, it packs quite a nice kick...."
