Succumbing to the Pressure - 1

Okay, so here’s the deal.  I posted the story on the Port-Charles Fanfic page.  I didn’t think to save the story until I noticed that chapters 1 through five were GONE!!!  So…I’m gonna tell what goes on in the chapters, in as much detail as I can, until I have the chapters current to chapter 6, chapters 6 and beyond I have (and will continue to) saved.

Pre chapter 6…
 It was Emily’s b-day.  She wakes up to the family fighting with Alan.  She walks downstairs and get roped into the discussion.  She is afraid of Alan, so AJ tells Alan to leave her alone.  Alan hits AJ, sending him flying.  Em tries to go see how AJ is, but Alan grabs her.  Either AJ or Ned tackles him I don’t remember.  She runs upstairs and cries herself to sleep.  She wakes up to Nicholas leaving a message on the answering machine saying he has to cancel their day because he forgot about an errand he had to run, but he’d see her later.  She left and went to Lucky’s apartment, but no-one was there.  Then she went to Jason’s house.  He told her happy birthday.  Then he told her that Robin wasn’t there because she was with Nicholas.  Emily tried not to cry and Jason told her he didn’t want her there because he was having someone over that she might get hurt, so she greatfully left so Jason wouldn’t see her crying.    When she got home she went over to her dresser and pulled out leftover pot.  Then she smoked it.
 Luke came back into town.  He ran into Lucky and Liz at a resteraunt.  Lucky was, ofcourse, a brat to him.  He went home, only to find Emily on his front porch mumbling incoherently.  She asked for Lucky and Luke brought her to Lucky’s house.   Nicholas called over at Emily’s house and AJ told him she wasn’t there.  He felt horrible for ditching her on her birthday.  He hoped he would find her at Lucky’s house.  At first Lucky was shocked to see his father at his house, but when he saw Emly he got scared for his friend.  He asked Luke to stay and help him  with Emly.  Nicholas came over and Emily freaked out because she didn’t want himn to see her.  Lucky mistook this for that Nicholas had hurt her so he hit him.  Emily yelled for him to stop and then passed out.
 Luke is sitting in a chair watching Lucky sleep next to Emily.  Nicholas walks in and hands Luke some coffee.  Luke tells Nicholas that he wants a truce.  No more Spencer-Cassidine younger generation bullshit.   Lucky wakes up and Nicholas gives him his coffee, leaving himself with none.  Lucky tells him thanks, they are actually getting along.   Luke goes to get somne blankets and Lucky follows.  They have a  talk.  At first Lucky is unreceptive and responds angry.  But he sees how upset Luke is, he finally admits to himself that he wants his father back.  They hug and forgive one another.
The next day Lucky tells Liz what happened and that he and Luke made up.  He tells her that he is about to go and see Laura.  Nicholas walks Emily home and wishes her good luck.    Emily actually doesn’t go in.  Instead she goes over to Elizabeth’s house.  She asks if she can talk to her about Nicholas.  Nicholas is on the docks awaiting the launch when some punks appear that he knew from PCH and didn’t like.  They attacked him and he had no way to fight back cause it was like 5 to 1.  Lucky appears and is friends with them, so when he tells them to get the hell off, they do.  Lucky is concerned when Nicholas wobbles.   Lucky starts to talk to Nicholas but remembers that he has to go.  Nicholas is so glad that he and Lucky are starting to really connect.  They haven’t fought in a long time.    When Nicholas gets to Windemere he listens to I’ll Be There For You by Bon Jovi.
