The weekend flew by fast and it was early Monday morning. Abby woke up and looked out the window to see it pouring rain. She took a shower and then packed up all her stuff. She dried her hair and then brought her bag down to the car and threw it in the trunk, and then ran into the front seat. She started the ignition and pulled out onto the highway.
Charley woke up and walked over to Luka, who was still asleep and snoring loudly. He stared at him for a minute and then pinched his nose closed. Luka started moving and Charley snatched his hand back and ducked, crawling under the bed. Luka opened his eyes and blinked a few times adjusting his eyes. He looked over the bed..and then got up and kneeled on the floor.
Charley saw his shadow and crawled out on the other side. When Luka looked under the bed he was disappointed to see that Charley wasn't there. When he looked up he saw Charley sitting on the bed holding the phone. He looked at it and then held it out to Luka. "Call mommy."
"Ok." He took the phone and dialed Abby's cell. it rang a few times and then she answered. "Hello?"
"Hey...Charley wanted to call you."
"Is he ok?"
"Yeah..I think so, he jus-" but Luka couldn't finish because Charley grabbed the phone from him and put it to his ear. "MOMMY!" he screamed. "Hi baby! I miss you!"
"Me too! you coming home?"
"Yup, I'm on my way right now!"
"Yay!"
"Did you have fun with Luka?"
"Yes."
"Were you good?"
"Yes."
"Ok..well, can you put Luka back on the phone please?"
"Ok..I love you."
"I love you too, Bye sweetie."
"Bye mommy." He handed the phone back to Luka and lay flat on his back, holding his bear tight. "Hey..was he really good...I mean did he behave himself..and listen to you?"
"Yeah..he was good, Abby. Like I said before, he's a great kid."
"Thank you again for this...I'll be there in a few hours..ok?"
"Ok..see you then..bye."
"Bye."
Luka hung up the phone and put it back on the charger and sat back down on the bed stretching. Charley slid off the bed and walked in front of Luka. "I'm hungry."
"You..are?" He nodded. "Well...lets see what we have to eat."
It was about 4 in the afternoon and the rain hadn't let up at all. Abby looked around and seemed to be in the middle of no where. "Damn it...I must have took a wrong turn.." she mumbled to herself as she felt the car start to slow, and through the rain pouring down, smoke coming from the car. It stopped and Abby cursed loudly. She tried again and again to start the ignition but...it wouldn't start. She got out of the car and closed the door walking around to the hood of it.
She opened it and as the rain hit it, it made sort of a sizzling sound..."damn..must be over-heated." She slammed the hood shut and walked back around to the door. When she pulled to open it, it was locked. "oh noooo.." She pulled on every door but they were all locked, and as she looked inside she saw her keys in the ignition. "WHY MEEEEEEEE?" she screamed loudly looking up into the sky.
Abby was soaking wet by now and reached in her pocket checking for her phone. "Oh thank god." She pulled it out and dialed Luka's number. "Hello?"
"Hey, Luka its Abby."
"Where are you? I can barley hear you...is everything ok..I thought you would be back by now."
"Well..My car broke down and I'm in the middle of no where! In the pouring, freezing rain! and, I've locked myself out..I think I turned on the wrong exit."
"Which one did you take?"
"27."
"Yeah..thats the wrong one."
"I'm freezing my ass off!"
"Ok...well..I'm leaving right now, I'll be there as soon as I can. Ok?"
"Ok...thank you."
She hung up and slipped the phone into her pocket. She wrapped her arms around her chest and hugged herself tightly trying to keep warm.
"Come on Charley, we have to go get your mommy."
Luka pulled onto exit 27 and drove down for about 20 minutes when he saw, a small woman sitting on the back of a car. He pulled over and jumped out of the car. When he ran up to Abby she was soaking wet, her teeth were chattering, lips a light blue color and she was shaking. He led her to the car and inside were towels and blankets. Luka pulled her soaked coat off and threw it in his trunk wrapping her up in the blankets. She sat close to the heater, as Luka opened her car door using a special tool. He grabbed her keys and got her bag from the trunk and put it in his trunk.
He had called a tow truck so the car was put onto it and then Luka got in the car and placed a hand on Abby's back. "I'm sorry, I didn't get here sooner..there was traffic."
"It's ok."
"You warming up at all?"
"Not really..." She said sitting back and looking in the back seat where Charley was sleeping in his car seat.
"You think you're a little hypothermic?" Luka said flashing her a smile.
"Probably." Abby laughed.
When they got to Luka's, he carried Charley inside and layed him down on the couch. He led Abby to the bathroom and started a hot bath for her to warm up in. "Here" He said handing her a towel. "Get those wet clothes off...before you catch pneumonia."
"Good idea..but I'm most likely already doomed...I was out there for over an hour." She said teeth still chattering. She closed the door, pulled off the wet clothes and dropped them on the floor. She sat in there forever, warming up until the water started to get cold. When Abby got out, and walked out of the bathroom and found her bag and pulled out some clothes. She slid on some sweat pants and then pulled on a sweatshirt.
When she walked out into the living room she saw Charley sleeping on one side of the couch and Luka sitting on the other. She picked him up and sat on the couch with Charley snuggling close to her. "Thank you, for picking me up...and letting me use your bath tub....watching Charley..just..everything."
"It was my pleasure."

The next morning Abby woke up on a couch. She looked around...and didn't know where she was...where was Charley? She thought of yesterday..."car broke down...got locked out..Luka came..and..ohh.." She thought to herself.."I'm at Luka's." She wrapped the blanket around her tightened and got into a little ball, resting her head back on the shoulder rest. She felt terrible..she was freezing...but sweating...her nose was all stuffed up...her chest felt congested..
Luka walked over to her, she looked awful. He brushed hair out of her face, and felt the heat. He pressed his hand to her forehead and she was burning up. She woke up and looked up at him. "Hi." She said in almost a whisper. "Hey." Luka said sitting on the edge of the couch. "You're burning up." She nodded. "I'm not surprised...."
"You sound terrible."
"Thanks..Luka..wheres Charley."
"My room..watching TV....oh and I bet you were wondering why you woke up on my couch.."
"Kinda." She said sniffing...her nose was so stuffed up, her head was congested.
"Well..you fell asleep..and I didn't want to wake you up..so I left you there....and I called the hospital..and told them you weren't coming in...I figured..you would be sick."
"Thank you...you have been really been great..these past few weeks..."
"You're welcome...I'm always here..when you need me..thats what friends do."
"You are a great friend Luka."
"Thanks..you are too."
"Yeah..what have I done for you?"
"Made me dinner."
"Oh wow...You..watched my son all weekend...you picked me up in the rain...let me use your bath tub...sleep on your couch..."
"Yeah...but your dinner was reallllly good."
Abby smiled and rubbed her eyes..."Well me and Charley should probably get going...you probably have work.."
"I don't think its a good idea for you to be around him if you're sick."
"Damn..your right....maybe Richard can watch him..Can I use your phone?"
"I'm off." Luka suggested. Abby laughed a little bit and sat up running her fingers through her hair and then pulled it up in a messy bun. "Aren't you sick of him yet?"
"No." Luka said shaking his head. "you stay here...and I'll get you a thermometer..tylenol..and some juice..you should drink lots of fluids."
"You have any tissues?"
"Yeah, here...catch." he said tossing them at her. he then walked into the bathroom, and Abby pulled her knees to her chest and rested her chin on them.."thank you." she mumbled before blowing her nose.
Luka came back and popped the thermometer into her mouth. He set the juice and Tylenol down on the coffee table. The thermometer went off and he pulled it out of her mouth. "103.6...here, take these." Luka said handing Abby the Tylenol and juice. She swallowed them and Charley came walking out of Luka's room. "Luka..is mommy aw- MOMMY!" he yelled running over to Abby. "Hi mommy!"
"Hi sweetie."
"You sound funny.."
"I'm sick."
"Oh no...did you forget to wear a coat?" Abby smiled and tousled his hair..."No...I always wear my coat." Charley laughed and climbed onto the couch wrapping his arms around Abby's neck. "I missed you." He whispered into her ear. "I missed you too babe...but mommy doesn't want you to get sick...how about you go back in Luka's room?"
"I want to stay with you mommy.." Charley said with a pleading face. "I know..but I really don't want you to get sick."
"Ok...are we sleeping over here again?"
"I don't know.... you might sleep at daddy's until mommy feels better."
"I don't want to."
"I'm sorry."
Abby and Charley ended up sleeping there again.. Abby starting feel worse..and had taken cold medicine that made her very drowsy. She had practically slept all day..and that night she fell asleep and Luka..knew she felt like crap..knew..she didn't want Charley to get sick..and knew...she didn't want to call Richard...so he let her sleep.
