Author's Note: I don't own any of these folks...they belong to Ken Corday and the people over at Days of our Lives. I've read several things that have convinced me that Kyle Brandt has a slight crush on Ali Sweeney (which is totally cute). I think in one of his interviews he talks about wanting the writers to give him some Phami action. I don't think I could stomach it on the show since I'm all about Lucas and Sami but this is how it could play out in my fantasy world. There's definitely more Lumi stuff going on than Phelle (I'm just not that into Belle) but I thought this was a funny idea for a story anyway. Not exactly Phelle, not exactly Lumi, not exactly Phami (and definately not Lelle--or is it Becas)...but sorta. Read and find out about this craziness. I'll try to make it funnier as the chapters progress since it's bound to get out of control.

Also, I'm no professional writer by any means. This is one of my first fics so words of guidance are most welcome. I'm rating this R for lots of sexual innuendo but there's no actual sex...at least not yet. But I'll try my hardest to keep it decent.

CHAPTER ONE

AT SAMI'S APARTMENT

Lucas had just crawled back onto the couch after taking a little fieldtrip to his apartment for some much needed supplies.

"Get your mind out of the gutter," he had told Sami when informing her of his purpose in leaving the comfortable warm space of her couch and her body. Sami just gave him that sexy look of hers and laughed at the implication of his words. "I just meant that I wanted to get some extra clothes and my toothbrush...trust me, you'll appreciate it in the morning."

As Lucas adjusted the covers around himself, he watched appreciatively as Sami stretched herself out like a cat. "After that wonderful proposal you gave me tonight, you can turn into Godzilla by morning and I'd still want to jump you." Lucas arched an eyebrow at her and smirked. "Well, don't get used to it General. I expect you to be clean and sanitary from tomorrow on. You just get a free 24 hour pass tonight."

"You're too kind, Sami. That's exactly why I want to spend the rest of my life with you," and to prove it he gave her a quick but sweet kiss on her lips. But in his usual smart-alec manner, he had to throw in an extra wise crack. "That and the fact that you're incredibly giving in bed. Now that's something I'll appreciate in the morning." He unsuccessfully tried to get out of the way as she went to smack him on the arm for his flippant remark.

"Watch it now!" Instead of continuing her assault though she decided that it would be much more fun to snuggle. She could find the appropriate punishment for his smart little mouth later.

"We could move to your bed you know," Lucas said as they tried to find a comfortable position.

"I know but I'm comfortable right where we are. Besides, we can watch the Honeymooners together before going to sleep. She absently reached for his hand across his body and seemed lost in thought for a moment. "Lucas, you really came through for me tonight." She turned over to look into his warm, brown eyes. "I really didn't know what to expect and I know I put a lot of pressure on you but you delivered way beyond my wildest fantasies." She suddenly turned serious as she rubbed her fingers across his chest. "I just want you to understand that after everything that's happened to me in my relationships, I've just come to think that no one could really want to commit to me without my...persuading them to do it. If you were serious about it, I didn't want it to be something done in the heat of the moment or something taken lightly. It may seem selfish or unfair but I needed to know that it was real and that you wouldn't turn around and tell me that it was all a joke or a mistake and I'd be the one sad and alone after it was all over."

Lucas could tell that this was difficult for her and tried to encourage her by soothingly rubbing her back and running his hands over her hair. Not that he needed an excuse since he loved cuddling with her. He secretly wondered why Sami's playful conversation had taken such a serious turn.

"But Lucas, when you said all of those things in front of everyone and you sang to me, I knew you meant it...I could feel it. When I looked in your eyes, I knew that it was just about you and me and Will and what we feel for each other...how we're going to be a family now. And Lucas..." She paused like she was unsure about telling him her next thought.

"What is it sweetie? You can tell me."

"I can't ever remember feeling so sure about something in my entire life. Even when I was scheming against Carrie or your mother and I thought my intentions were so right and justified. All that is nothing compared to the real thing, of really knowing that something is right in your heart. I was only expecting a little wooing and dancing, maybe some shameless romanticizing but as usual, you knew exactly what I needed and wanted." She kissed him slowly and soundly on the lips and looked deep into his eyes. "I know what people think of me and I do know that you're trying to be a better person just like I am. But when you professed your love in front of everyone we knew, well, I knew that I needed to hold onto you and never let go." With that, she tucked her head underneath his and held him in an embrace that implied that she meant to do just that

"Sami, thank you for telling me that. I love you and I won't ever disappoint you or give you reason to doubt that." They continued to hold each other both lost in their own thoughts and the feelings of tranquility that neither thought they would ever have. Soon, however, Lucas let out a huge yawn and in following the subconscious tradition, Sami followed with a yawn just as big. "Why don't we lie here and cuddle and maybe get some sleep. If I'm going to turn into a beast in the morning and you're going to ravish me in all my sexiness, we better get some rest and build up some energy."

"Mmmm, you're probably right. Here's to a fast approaching morning, baby."

Before they knew it they were both lightly snoring and very deeply asleep. So far gone were they that the didn't notice the shimmering cloud that appeared over the top of their head and Lucas didn't feel a thing when the mysterious cloud settled over his sleeping form.
