Mistakes Aren't Always Bad
Previously on ER - Lucy and Carter together
LOUNGE - IT IS 3 MONTHS AFTER MY LAST FIC
Lucy is looking at something in her hand. She was shocked. She never expected this to happen, well, not right now anyway. How would she tell him? How would he take it?
The door to the lounge opened. It was Carol
Hey Lucy, what's up? Carol asked
Nothing much, Lucy tells her
Wanna talk about it and tell me what's really up? she asks her
If I do you cannot tell a soul
I won't, so what's up?
I got this in today, she says meaning the bit of paper in her hand, Carol takes it from her and looks at it
Congratulations Lucy, but I didn't know you were seeing anyone
I'm not
Do you know who the father is?
Yeah but we can't be together, Lucy says sadly
Why?
Rules
Well you're gonna have to tell Carter soon
What?! How did you know
Its obvious. You two are made for each other. Jerry even has a pool running on when you guys are gonna get together.
Lucy laughs
Can you go and get Carter for me? Please? Lucy asks her
Hold on and I'll get him. Carol gets up and leaves
RECEPTION
Carter and Luka are there.
Hey Carter, Carol shouts
What? he shouts back
Carol goes up to him
Lucy wants to speak to you,she's in the lounge, she tells him
What about? he asks
Ask her yourself
Ok I will. He walks towards the lounge
LOUNGE
Lucy is sitting waiting for Carter. The door opens, it's Carter. She's nervous
Hey Lucy, so you wanted to talk? he asks her
Yeah, I got this in today.
She hands him the bit of paper, she reads it
Congratulations, he says shocked, So, um, who's the father
Read the date
3 months?
Yeah, now what happened 3 months ago?
Oh my God, he sits down now very shocked
You don't need to worry I won't tell anyone you're the father and -
He cuts her off by kissing her. She breaks away
Why did you do that? she asks him
Because I love you
What?!
I loved you from the first time I saw you, and I couldn't tell you so I was just horrible to you I'm sorry
I love you too. But what about the rules?
You graduate soon and rules are made to be broken
They kiss again. Kerry walks in and sees them, she coughs, they look up embarassed.
You two my office half four, she tells them. She leaves
Carter and Lucy look at each other
KERRYS OFFICE (?)
So do you want to explain to me what you were doing in the lounge, she asks
Kissing, he replies
Why were you kissing?
Cause Lucy told me some good news
Which is?
She's having my baby!
What?!
She is -
I heard you! This is gonna cause trouble. Your careers could be on the line
Please don't tell anyone Dr. Weaver, Lucy pleads, We love each other
It can't be kept secret for long, Kerry tells them, I won't tell anyone
Thank you Dr. Weaver, Lucy says relieved
Now leave, on you go
Carter and Lucy leave
LOUNGE
Lucy is sitting by herself. She was glad Carter had taken it so well
Someone enters the lounge. It's a delivery guy
Delivery for Ms. Knight, he says
That's me, she says
The guy hands her the balloons and leaves. She reads the note attached to the balloons
Pop the pink one? she reads out, Oh well.
She takes out a pen and pops it. Something falls from it. It s a note with a ring attached to it. She reads out the second note.
Will you marry me? she is shocked
Then she hears a voice at the doorway. It's Carter
Well will you? he says
She looks at him. Yes, she says almost crying. they hug and kiss
OUTSIDE THE LOUNGE
Everyone is watching them
Aww, they all say when they kiss
Quick they're coming now, someone shouts
They all scatter in different directions as Carter and Lucy come out of the lounge and go their separate ways. Carter goes over to reception
Woohoo, I won the bet, Malik cries
What bet? Carter asks him
Just a bet, he replies
Ok
Chuni and Yosh walk past making kissy noises, Carter turns and watches them
A ROOM
Lucy is putting stuff away. Carter sneaks in and goes behind her and starts kissing her neck. She twists around
John she scared me, she tells him
He kisses her
Anbody could walk in, she tells him
So? think they know already, he tells her
How?
Well I was at reception and Malik said he had won some sort of bet and then Chuni and Malik walked past making kissy noises
Well the bet I think can solve
Really
Jerry has a pool running on when we were gonna get together
He is unbelievable
I know
Wanna go to the lounge?
Yeah sure, so when are we gonna tell everyone everything?
It'll be better after you've graduated
Yeah thats true
It's looks awfully dark in there, he says
Yeah it does I wonder what's going on in there? she asks
They enter the lounge it's dark inside suddenly the lights flicker on.
Everyone is in there. They all yell 'surprise'
What's this for? Carter asks
It's your engagement party , Elizabeth says
How did you know? Lucy asks
We saw it all, Mark says
Suddenly someone pops open a bottle of champagne(non-alcoholic)
Only one glass each, Kerry shouts
Here you go Lucy, Abby gives a glass to her
I can't drink that, she says
How come? Abby asks
I, um, don't like it
That's a shame
Yeah

there is a murmur
I'm going to Seattle to live with Doug, she tells them, I'll miss you all loads, Carter, Lucy good luck with the.. everything
People go up to Carol and hug her etc.
