Yes, I know that I'm over doing this just a tad. I have now three incompleted fics. Eesh. But I hope you guys like this one. I know most have seen the movie. I do not own the movie this fic is based on [Failure to Launch], nor do I own any of the characters included. I am a humble second chances lumi writer and I love that job! Enjoy, by all means! Murda Inc Haha it must be the a** That got me like that If it get any fatter Man the rule gonna hafta get at her And our situation won't matter I come to make you smile In the freakiest manners J to the L-O Hello, no I'm not Lee Harvey Oswald I'm the rule in the shot call Off the wall Like MJ in his early days It's the Inc. and Lopez now The music of the club blazed through into the summer night as Lucas Roberts made his entrance with his friend, Brady Black and brother Phillip Kiriakis tagging one step behind him. As expected, every women within a 4 foot radius undressed Lucas with their desire-filled eyes. Lucas was used to the attention by now and exposed his million dollar smile. All the women quickly melted and sighed. "Lucas, this has gotta stop. You're messin up my game." Phillip nudged him gently. "Game? What? The cocktail waitress you waved to? Phil, she wasn't exactly waving back with that ONE finger." "Ha ha ha" Brady chuckled in the back. "He's got a point there, man. I think it's you're aura. You've had this negative energy ever since you broke up with Belle." "I think he HAD to, man. She was already cheating on him." Lucas placed an arm around his brother knowing Phillip still hadn't recovered. Part of him still loved Belle but still knew she wasn't worth it. "Come on. How many chances do you get to spend your night dancing with beautiful women around every inch of you?" Lucas said with the women already twirling and grinding on him. I remember how you walked away Even when I tried to call your name See at first I didn't understand Now you're lookin' like a lonely man (lonely man) I remember how you did me wrong And now you're hurtin' cuz my love is gone Everybody gets a chance to burn You can take it as a lesson learned Ain't it funny Baby that you want me, when you had me Love is crazy, now I can smile and say Ain't it funny Baby that you want me, when you had me Love is crazy, I'm glad I can smile and say Ain't it funny After spending an evening of dancing, Lucas returned home with a lovely burnt sienna haired girl by the name of Cassie. They kissed each other senselessly over and over as Lucas barely able to open the door, struggled into his lavish home. "Wow" Cassie spoke. "I still can't believe you live in a mansion." "Yeah, it's great. But you should really take a look inside my bedroom..." Lucas winked suggestively. Cassie simply smiled and took his hand where he led her upstairs. 'He is amazing. I could totally picture myself with this guy.' Lucas kissed her over and over pushing her to the bed and as things got more and more heated the sound of someone entering broke their moment of intimacy. "Lucas, baby.." A feminine voice sounded. A scream eminated from Cassie as she started to cover herself with the sheets. "Mom... uh..." "Oh, I'm sorry baby. I thought I heard you come home. I was just coming in to ask.. where did you put you pants' suit? You said you needed it re-altered?" "In the uh... drawer. Thanks" Lucas said awkwardly. "I'm sorry. I didn't mean to disturb your evening with Carrie..." "Cassie." "Oh yeah. Goodnight, sweetie." Kate walked over to give her son a kiss and motioned to shake Cassie's hand which she awkwardly took. Kate shut the door behind her and returned to her bedroom. "How'd it go?" Victor asked. "You live with you're PARENTS?!" Cassie screamed. "She's getting dressed..." Kate told him. "Unbelievable!" The sound of a door sounded. "By the way, did you move the umbrella stand?" Victor asked. A crash sounded then. "UGH! Crap.." "You know we're gonna get sued for that." Victor continued. Another slam of the door. "And she's out of here." Kate finished. "You could check that one off the list." "She looked new." Kate said turning to her side. "And another one bites the dust." "Night, sweetheart." "Night, honey." |

Chapter One "So, I saw you went home with that girl last night." Phillip started and spread cream cheese on his morning bagel. "Yeah. She seemed very in tune to her personality." Brady said biting into another piece of fruit. "Yeah. But it didn't work out." Brady and Phillip gave each other awkward looks when Brady started, "It didn't?" "You took her home..." Phillip said knowingly. [Flashback] Lucas, Brady, and Phillip started into their downward facing dog positions in their yoga class as Lucas started to explain. "See, the same always happens. Everything is going great, we have a few laughs, some drinks, she has fun, I have fun... and all of a sudden she gives me 'the look'." Both Brady and Phillip. "The look." They say in unison. "Yeah, man. She gets all serious and I had to bring her home." "You always do the same thing." Phillip says moving into another position but falling over instead. "Yeah, whenever things get to serious.. Bam! You bring her home knowing you're parents'll eventually show up and when they do, vamoosh. Gone." Brady continues. "Yup. And why is that boys?" Brady and Phillip stare at him blankly. "Because we are shunned and unappreciated for our life style." Lucas explains. "Yes, we do live at home. But we don't pay for renting or owning our own places. Laundry is washed and dry and folded on our beds. And breakfast, lunch and dinner is served to us every day, free of charge. Yes, boys. We got the life." [End of Flashback] All three men raise their glasses to a toast. 'Yeah, baby!" "Thirty five years!" Kate exclaims. "Thirty FIVE years." Victor knocks his head to the nearest wall. Four groups of parents gathered at the Kiriakis mansion for a barbeque. "I love Lucas, I really do. But..." Kate exclaims once more. "I just thought we'd be done by now. That he'd be on his own. I mean, we were good parents..." "We're supposed to be done." "Yeah, but our house is better than anything OUR son could afford." A parent struggles to defend their son. "Uh huh. And our Neil's a flight attendant. It wouldn't make sense for him to buy a home" Another man states. "Yeah, plus he has all his nice flight attendant friends who let him stay over all the time!" The man's wife continues. Everyone stops to look at her. "What?" "Any one for a guava SMASHER?" A woman enters excitedly. "Thanks, Amy." Kate replies as she downs it all. "Kate!" Victor tries to stop her. "Everybody!" The happy couple shouts. "Dougie moved OUT!" A wave of 'what' and 'how' fills the air. "He met a girl." "What? Lucas meets a new girl every week." "Well maybe he hasn't found the right girl." All three men groan from their very instense workout. "Lucas, I know what this is all about." Phillip starts. Lucas gives him a strange look. "You're afraid of love." "B.S! Total B.S! I'm not afraid of love." Lucas stops and nods. "I love love." |

Chapter 2 - Introducing... "Victor, we don't need another recliner..." Kate whined as they scanned the store for a new chair for the study. "I'm looking for something new." "Hey! Here's something new... It has a cup holder. It's a man's chair." Kate, then, swatted Victor's arm. "That's not what I'm talking about." Lucas sat chuckling at his parent's mild bickering. At that moment, something caught his attention which was spoken out loud by his father. "Nice. You see that, son?" "Yeah, I sure do." "Weeeellll?" Victor nudged his arm gently. "Go after her." "I think I might just." Lucas rose as his mother rolled her eyes and continued. "Well.." Kate sighed. "Get whatever you want. Just know that I'm going to be having an affair within the next six months. If I gotta recline... " She turned to sit on another chair. "I'm making it interesting." "Okay, then." Victor said. "I like this one." "Pardon me? That's polka dots. I don't want a polka dot chair in my study." "YOUR study?" Victor cleared his throat and lowered in his chair. 'Oh boy... Here we go.' "We're not buying that chair.'' He whispered. "I am buying this chair, I got my own money." She put her hand protectively over the arm rest. "Unless you start dancing again, darling, you're broke." Lucas stared off into space and then turned slightly and bumped into the most beautiful blonde he's ever seen. "Uh, excuse me. That's mine" She started off. "Sorry. You're uh buying that?" She smiled sweetly and said, "No." She dropped her bag to the floor in front of her feet and began to relax in her black recliner. An exhale escaped her lips as Lucas quirked his eyebrows in confusion. Entertained, Lucas started again. "You want a cocktail? Maybe a nice quilt or something?" "No, I just need my half hour...." She opened her eyes slightly to see any signs of him disappearing. "You know people usually don't bother me...." "Sure, they don't." Lucas began to relax in the recliner next to hers. "My name's Lucas." "Sami." Sensing the question in his head. Sami started to answer before he could ask it. "Okay, look. I bring the salesmen coffee so they don't mind and the music selection is a soothing blend of jazz. It's practically narcotic. I love it here." Lucas smiled and laughed. "You know, this isn't like me." "Hmm? What do you mean?" "I don't usually sleep with guys on the first date." Opening his eyes, Lucas saw that he was sleeping on the recliner next to Sami's and began to laugh again. Sami giggled back and playfully smacked his arm. "I don't think this would count as a first date." "Well, it would if you'd ask me out tonight." "Alright." Lucas gave in, very interested in this girl's direct pursuit. "Would you like to go out on a date tonight?" "Ugh! I can't. What about lunch tomorrow?" "Sure. Wait, no. Tommorrow's saturday." "Uh, yeah. I sometimes like to eat on Saturday..." Sami made a strange face. "No, it's just I gotta spend the day with my niece tomorrow." "Aww, that's sweet." "Yeah. How 'bout Monday?" Sami smiled brightly at him. "Monday, it is." "I met a girl yesterday." Lucas started. Phillip and Brady looked up in awe. "Really? I never would've guessed. I mean, it's been almost, uh, 36 hours about since your last girlfriend...." Lucas threw a pillow forcefully at the both of them. "Shut up." "What's her name?" Phillip started. "Sami." Lucas sighed happily. "Ace, she's fantastic." Brady made a face at the childhood nickname. "I could imagine.. I mean, she's gotta be just as amazing as Cassie was, right?" Lucas, again, threw a pillow at Brady. "Shut up." "I'm tellin' you guys, she's...." "Shut up, Lucas and play the game!" Abigail said and smacked him right in the nose. "Abby!" Lucas said in mock shock. "Seriously, Uncle Lucas. You're not even trying!" Lucas tried to concentrate but found it to be pointless. All he could do was spend his time thinking about how many minutes would pass until he would see Sami again. |
