Completely involuntary, I swear! And not very polished, since I only spent about half an hour on it. It came to me after reading tomorrow's Prevuze (for June 18) but I don't think there are any real spoilers in it - one line, but nothing important. Still, if you want to be careful, just hold off on reading it until after that episode has aired. Again, I repeat, this ficlet wouldn't leave me alone until I wrote it. :P NOT FAIR ”Why does nobody care about what I want?” EJ stomped down the hallway, outrage flooding his mind. Trying to get rid of him! Expecting him to move out! The nerve! “He has no right to treat me this way. No right! This is the DiMera mansion, and I am a DiMera. End of story. If anyone is going to move out, it should be him!” Slamming the door to his room behind him, he threw open the window and took a deep breath of fresh air. Lucas wanted him out of the house, so therefore Samantha wanted him out of the house. Why wasn’t she standing up for him, the way she was supposed to? He had thought he had trained her well enough for that, at least. Not trained to reject Lucas and order him to leave instead, though – that would go against all his plans. “Remind me again why I got you released from prison.” He didn’t need any reminders, of course. It was impossible to forget. He’d tried very hard to forget, all those months Lucas had been in jail, but in the end it had proved useless. He knew what he had to do. And so he had arranged to have Lucas released – only now it seemed to be backfiring on him. Things were not going as planned. “He doesn’t want me around.” EJ buried his head in his hands as a sob broke free. How could this be? After everything he’d done for Lucas, the man still rejected him! Still turned his back on EJ’s love! How could he be so blind, so cruel, so heartless? “I thought when I had him released, when he came to live here… How can he deny our passion? After everything we’ve been through? He even saved my life!” The memory of that, of Lucas’ soft lips on his, giving him mouth-to-mouth, nearly sent him into a tailspin. He’d known then, but he’d tried so hard still to fight it. It hadn’t seemed right – he was supposed to be in love with Samantha, after all. They even had the identical ancestors to prove it. Yet it was thoughts of Lucas that haunted his every waking moment. And then a sudden realization dawned on him. “Maybe he’s fighting it, too! Maybe he doesn’t know how I feel, so he’s afraid to admit his own feelings!” Yes, of course – that must be it. How had he not seen this before? EJ eagerly rushed down the hallway towards Lucas’ room. To think of all the time they had wasted! But no more. Now they’d let it all out in the open, and then they’d be together forever, the way they were meant to be. Just the two of them – and their twins, of course. His love was sitting in a chair, reading a book, with the window open to let in the warm summer air. EJ took a moment to stand and simply watch him, marveling at what a gorgeous man he’d found for himself. He couldn’t wait to run his hands over those powerful arms, pull that delicious mouth up to his… Lucas looked up as he became aware of EJ’s presence, and a frown marred that beautiful face. Of course – still fighting his feelings. “What do you want?” he growled. EJ couldn’t help but smile; now that he recognized the anger for the defensive mechanism it was, the rejection no longer hurt. “I came to make a confession. I lied to you earlier.” “What a surprise.” Lucas put aside his book. “Strike that – it is surprising that you’d admit to it. So what did you lie about this time?” “I know exactly why I had you released from jail. I don’t need any reminders.” Lucas got to his feet and shook his head, muttering something about sarcasm going over people’s heads. “Okay then. Since you’re obviously so eager to tell me, go ahead. Not that I’m likely to take your word for anything, but give it your best shot.” “Isn’t it obvious, Lucas?” EJ moved closer. He itched to reach out and touch Lucas, but it was too soon. They needed to admit to their feelings first, before getting physical. “I did it so we could be together.” “You… what?” “I arranged to have you released from jail and moved in here so we could be together,” EJ repeated patiently. He knew firsthand how hard it was to let go of the pretense. “You don’t know how terribly I missed you while you were gone. Nothing was the same without you. I would sneak into Samantha’s room when she was out just to look at the picture of you on her nightstand. I’d cuddle the twins because it made me feel closer to you. Our children, Lucas.” “You’re out of your freaking mind.” Lucas backed away, glancing around nervously. “Don’t be afraid to admit it, love. We both know it was always meant to be you and me. All that fighting, hiding the passion we felt for each other.” “Passion?” Stopping dead in his tracks, Lucas snarled, “The only passion I feel towards you is hatred! You raped the woman I love, stole my wife, drove my oldest son out of town and stole the twins from me. I want you dead, Brit boy.” “I love the way you say that.” EJ moved closer again, and Lucas quickly stepped back further. Pretty soon, he’d be backed against the wall, and then EJ would be able to make him admit to his feelings. “We were meant to be together. After everything I’ve done for you, can’t you see how true that is? And Johnny and Allie, they’ll be so happy to see their fathers together. I know of a DiMera island we can go to, just the four of us…” “You’re crazy. Stark raving mad.” Lucas hurled the words at him. “After everything you’ve done in the name of wanting Sami, you turn around and suddenly decide you want me instead?! I think you’ll find me a bit harder to rape. Nobody’s life is in danger here, after all.” “I won’t need to rape you, anymore than I needed to rape her. You know you want me. You know you love me. It’s okay to say it, Lucas – I feel the same way. As for Samantha, she was just a link to you, can’t you see that? Why do you think I had the paternity test say that one twin belonged to you and one to me? If it was Samantha I wanted, I would have made sure the test proved they were both mine.” That got his love to stand still in shock. “You rigged the tests? Yes, of course you did. Johnny’s mine, isn’t he? Like the earlier test showed. Like I always knew in my heart that he was. He’s my son.” “He’s ours,” EJ gently corrected. “They both are. Don’t you see? We’re a family. We belong together. All you have to do is admit that you love me, and we can be together forever.” He reached out, but Lucas dodged his hand and pushed the nightstand at him, jumping across the bed while EJ was busy clambering to his feet again. “Get the hell away from me, you psycho! Where the hell did you get a crazy idea like that? I tried to kill you, remember?” “Oh, Lucas. Of course you did. We always hurt the ones we love, after all. I tried to kill you too, but that’s all in the past now. It’s time to move forward instead of obsessing about what went before.” “You tried to kill me.” It was a statement, not really a question, and Lucas’ eyes flickered briefly towards the door behind EJ. “The freezer truck?” If his lover wanted the details, EJ was willing to provide them. He’d come to realize that people expected to hear the story before forgiving him. “Yes, I locked you in that freezer truck. And when Samantha and I were outside, I did all I could to get her to leave. But you managed to switch on that tape recorder, didn’t you? Fate, Lucas. You couldn’t die then, because we were meant to find love together, you and I.” “You are out of your mind.” “Stop playing coy.” This wasn’t the way it was meant to go. Where was the instant forgiveness? “You know you love me. Say it.” “I loathe you. I wish I’d succeeded in killing you.” “Shut up! Don’t you ever say that again.” Rage rushed into him again. He would not stand for this! Nobody rejected him! “Actually, no, I’m glad I didn’t kill you, because jail will be perfect for you. And I’m speaking from experience. How many years for attempted murder, do you think?” “Don’t be ridiculous, Lucas, I won’t be going to jail.” That DiMera island was looking like a better choice with every breath he took. They’d see how long Lucas could resist him when it was just the two of them. “Oh, I think you will.” The voice came from behind him, and EJ spun around quickly. In the doorway stood Roman Brady, and behind him, a pale-faced Samantha. “I won’t bother apologizing for the interruption. You okay, Lucas?” “I will be when you get him behind bars. And when we get a new paternity test and finally prove that Johnny's mine." Samantha gasped at that, going even paler. “I hope you brought your handcuffs, Roman.” As Roman grinned and pulled out a set of handcuffs, EJ looked around in desperation. He would not be caught! Not on top of being rejected by Lucas and exposed in front of Samantha! He would not be caught! But Roman was blocking the doorway… The window. A step backwards, then he jumped. Shattering glass. Hard ground. Pain shot through his leg as he tried to get to his feet. He collapsed in a heap, tears of frustration springing to his eyes. How was he supposed to run away when he couldn’t even stand? Why was everything going against him today? It was not fair, was all EJ could think as he watched Roman come running around the corner of the house, handcuffs in one hand, gun in the other. It just wasn’t fair.

	Banners by me Don't care about what other peope think of you There will always be people who want to see you fail because they can't succeed "I'm coming home again, home to you.While the waves carry my dreams on through the night. The sea is dark and cold and goes on forever,But the moon and the stars and the sun will show me the way. I'm coming home again." sometimes you just need to distance yourself from people. if they care they'll notice if they don't you know where you stand... Lumily downloads
