One of General Hospital’s most beloved couples may finally be on the path to reconciliation, and surprisingly,

Cyrus (Jeff Kober) played a role in pushing them together.

After the dangerous criminal attempted to take Elizabeth’s (Rebecca Herbst) life, it was Lucky (Jonathan Jackson) who came to her rescue, putting himself in harm’s way.

His bravery nearly cost him everything, but in the aftermath, Elizabeth and Lucky shared a heartfelt moment, sealed with a kiss in the February 27 episode.

This moment has given fans hope that their long-awaited reunion may finally be in motion.

For longtime viewers, this development has been a long time coming.

Ever since Lucky returned to Port Charles, there has been anticipation surrounding a potential reunion with Elizabeth.

And while some fans are also hoping to see Sonny (Maurice Benard) and Carly (Laura Wright) find their way back to one another, it’s best to focus on one super couple at a time.

However, as with all soap romances, obstacles are bound to arise, and Elizabeth and Lucky’s journey won’t be an easy one. One of the most glaring issues is Lucky’s tendency to leave town. Much like his father before him, Lucky has struggled with staying in one place for too long. He spent years away from Port Charles, dedicating himself to noble causes overseas, but in doing so, he was absent from his son’s life and left Elizabeth behind. Even after returning, his instinct was to leave again to help Lulu (Alexa Havins). Though he recently promised to stay in Port Charles, one has to wonder if another mission will pull him away yet again. If that happens, would Elizabeth be willing to put up with another heartbreaking goodbye?

Another potential complication comes in the form of Kristina (Kate Mansi). Since hiring Lucky as a bartender at Charlie’s, the two have been spending more time together, forming a strong bond. While it’s easy to chalk their friendship up to the long-standing ties between their fathers, there is always the possibility that Kristina may develop deeper feelings for Lucky. Given that she has been lacking both friendship and romance lately, it wouldn’t be surprising if her admiration for Lucky turned into something more. If she does pursue him, it could spell trouble for his relationship with Elizabeth and cause tension between him and Sonny, who is always protective of his daughter.

At this point, it’s difficult to predict what the future holds for Lucky and Elizabeth. Relationships in the soap world are rarely smooth, and reunions are often short-lived. Still, there is undeniable chemistry between these two characters, and their shared history suggests they could have a real shot at lasting happiness. But will Lucky stay true to his word and remain in Port Charles? And if Kristina does develop feelings for him, how will he handle it?

For now, fans will have to wait and see how things unfold. But one thing is for sure: General Hospital is setting the stage for an emotional and dramatic ride for Lucky and Elizabeth, and viewers won’t want to miss a moment of it.
