xxxFrenchTk0xxx - I've always wanted to work with the Bella Twins. So here it is... Hopefully I'm able to continue this for a few more chapters. :) Enjoy

Chapter 1 – Double Trouble

I've always been grateful for what I had, the friends and family that I grew up with but sometimes it just wasn't enough. There is only so much you can do here in Orange City, Iowa and that's what I was afraid of. There was only so much that I believed I had done everything in this small town of mine. I've done the bookstore, the hardware store, the local supermarket, the antiques and pottery store, the small cafes and ran the local school kids soccer team. I've pretty much done it all and not because I'm a slack worker, far from it, I just can't stay in one place and each time I changed to a new job that's probably across the road from the current job or at least a couple of blocks away. The more closer and closer my mind kept coming to the conclusion that dropping anchor here was not an option, that I was going to leave and make something of myself and actually be somebody.

I know there's no place like home but even home can get tiresome. Except for the last two months it's been the place I die to get back to after every shift at the diner. I recently found out that I have a twin sister- well; she found me actually and got in contact. I've never met her in person but awesome technology these days; web chat allows us to see one another and that was good enough for me. We were completely identical it was crazy! Of course we have to keep it a secret because well? Nobody told us either one existed and I know most people would feel curious as to why and what happened but I didn't. I have a sister! An actual twin sister!

It had been a particularly gruelling day today. My boss was giving me a hard time at the diner. He's such an ass. Norman Ducchesene… Oily shaggy hair, failing beard, beady eyes, he's basically the type who has no choice but to pay a girl to go out with him. I've been his most hardworking employer and yet I've got shit to show for it because he shortcuts my pay. He treats all of us like crap and hits on all the young female staff of One- Me and it never ceases to disgust me. Today he threatened to fire me because I slapped him for grabbing my butt. I was revolted and for his sake took that as done with my shift.

It didn't take long before I was welcomed home with the aroma of lavenders and tulips. If there was one thing I loved about this place, it was the nature… the beautiful flowers and trees that grew around me. My house wasn't big or fancy, just a small average family home. When I got through the front door nobody was home, I rushed to my vintage computer and turned it on to see my lovely twin sister Nicole or Nikki as she preferred to be called doing her make up in the mirror. I didn't know much about her but I was learning new things every day like how we both love the colour red and that we both love sport especially Soccer though we are quite alike there is subtle differences between us.

"Hey!" I yelled.

She turned around a little startled before returning a smile.

"Oh Hey there sis!" she said in a mocking kind of voice as she came towards the screen.

"No wait! Turn around… let me see what ya got on" I taunted.

She just laughed confused "Okay?" Turning around in a small red dress complimenting her total in shape body.

"Niiice… So who's the lucky guy huh?" I laughed.

"Please… I'm just going out with some of the girls. So what's up?" she asked sitting down in front of the screen so I could see her properly.

"Remember my creepy boss?" I asked

She raised an eyebrow "Duchebag?"

"Ducchesne… yeah well, today the guy thought he could just cope a feel whenever he wanted! and groped my butt!"

I watched my sister's reaction and it looked as if she was going to pounce through the screen.

"HE WHAT! Oh Hell… Brie, I'm going to come down there right now… I'll cancel the rest of the tour, take leave and kick this guy's ass!"

I shook my head and laughed. "As if I'd let you do that! Besides… I slapped him across the face, I may lose my job over it but boy it felt good!"

We both cracked up laughing which slowly faded into silence.

"So…" I said breaking the silence followed by a shrug of the shoulders. "… When will I finally get to meet you?" I asked.

"In due time sis, don't worry we found each other and nothing is going to separate us two ever again. I promise you that!" she said reassuring me.

I managed a light smile. Then there was knocking at her door. She looked over her shoulder before looking back at me again.

"It looks like I have to go… just quickly… How does this look?" she asked attaching a red flower piece in her hair.

"Looks hot!" I replied smiling at her.

"Okay good…" The knocking was persistent. "…Hang on! I'll be there in a minute!" she yelled rolling her eyes. "Can you believe these people sis? Geez! Anyway… I gotta go now. You got my cell if you need anything k?"

"Yes NI-COLE! Gooo! Have fun!" I laughed.

"Alright, and ewww don't call me that.. Nobody calls me that BRI-ANNA" she taunted back at me.

"Bye!" I said blowing her a kiss. She caught it and winked at me before switching off.

Just like that, I'm back to my boring small town life again. Then I heard the doorbell ring. I took my time getting there but the person was real stubborn and was ringing it 50 million times I swear! I answered the door and as luck would have it, it was my crappy boss.

"I would say come in but cause its you, I'm going to say STAY OUT!" I said in the harshest tone possible before closing the door but he had stuck his foot in just in time to prevent it from fully shutting.

"C'mon I just want to talk and apologize for my behaviour?"

"I don't care! So Leave before I call the cops and you know I could put you away for sexual harassment you creep!" I spat out.

With that being said, he backed off but not before leaving one of his so called 'deadly'

Threats.

"If I don't get to have you Brianna, I'll see to it Nobody will" he sneered getting back into his rustic car and driving away.

Empty threats are all he's good at but I'm not going to lie that last one wasn't like the rest of them. Like the 'I'm going to fire you' ones; I was a little worried but I'm not going to let it get to me. He's ruined a micro-tiny part of my life already; I'm not about to let him damage it even more.

So the rest of the afternoon I just tried to relax and when everyone else had got home which was in the evening. I had already made dinner for them; Lasagne along with a nice healthy salad.

Then it was off to bed for me.


The Next day when I had turned up to work in the afternoon everything seemed fine. Daniel who is a student at the local high school seemed to be his usual self. He's always happy and chirpy even when Norman would vent all his frustrations out on him. Kent behind the grill, he never really socializes with the rest of us but he talks when he needs to. T.J came rushing through the front door, late as always; he was another student that went to the same high school as Daniel but never talk to each other much and I assume they are on opposite ends of the social hierarchical system. TJ was tall and of strong build… ideal for Football and this job was just to help to get some extra money for a car. He claims its so he can get to work on time but really its for the girls.

I felt bad if I just left the guys with no sudden warning so I got my apron on and tied my hair back as usual. Norman walked straight passed me and locked himself in his office. No creepy smile, no trying to make a move… at first I thought maybe he grew some dignity and had stopped pursuing me but I knew better. It wasn't over.

A customer came in. This guy's name was Dominic O'Shea and he was a regular at Citrus Diner – don't ask about the name... it's cheesy I know. However, Dominic wasn't. He was tall, brunette and had green eyes… an overall girl's 'Prince Charming' not that I was fantasizing but he was definitely cute. He greeted me a hello and took his normal spot sitting at the counter facing me. I've always been his waitress, so I brought him over his regular order of a Cheese Quesadilla with an Ice tea. I placed it in front of him and was about to retreat to the back before he called out.

"I have no experience at waiting a table or anything but I thought you were suppose to ask your customers what they wanted first?" he said

I turned around quite embarrassed and lost for words. I managed to spit something out though.

"I am so sorry, you've been coming here for like the past few weeks? And I thought-? I'm sorry? I- I- uh.. It's on the house." I said feeling my cheeks burning red.

He twiddled a fork between his fingers and looked down at his food then his eyes looked up and locked on with mine. I watched a smirk appear on his face.

"I'm kidding Brie." He laughed.

My shoulders eased, relieved from the sudden tension. I couldn't help but smile at the little joke.

"I'm glad you found it amusing" I said in a mocking tone.

I could tell he wanted to laugh but chose to put a mouthful in that way he wouldn't.

Shaking my head I just smiled and turned away. I back into the kitchen to see if he needed any help but he didn't as usual. TJ and Daniel seemed to have the dishes sussed and I went back into the front again.

When I got through Dominic stopped eating and wiped his hands on his napkin but he still had a bit to finish on his plate. I laughed as he had a little bit of sauce on the left corner of his mouth.

"You got a little of—here" I said pointing to the left corner of my mouth. But he just mimicked my actions exactly.

"No… here-" I said reaching over and touching his soft skin then wiping it away.

We were almost face-to-face, his lips seemed to scream 'kiss me!' but I pulled away quickly.

Norman did one of those 'I exist coughs' and stood there with a pissed of expression on his face. He gave Dominic one of those death stares before returning his glare at me.

"We need to speak. Now!" he said in a cold tone.

"Hah. I'm with a customer Norman. Whatever you have to say can wait." I replied turning back to Dominic and apologizing for my boss's rude attitude.

Norman came over and told Dominic he had to leave. My eyes widened in disbelief. This guy was officially crazy. Dominic gave me a worried look but I just nodded and smiled hoping to assure him that I'll be fine. He paid and then left.

I turned around to Norman.

"Well thousands of customers will be flooding in right now won't they?" I said in a sarcastic tone.

Before I knew it, his hand grabbed around my waist and pulled me into his body. He forced his lips against mine. I muffled under his rough lips trying to push him away but he tightened his grip. I managed to kick him in the groin and he let go straight away staggering back into the counter.

"You bitch!" he spat.

Rage hit me and I slapped him across the face. The Boys came running from the back.

"Keep him away from me!" I yelled.

"Grab her!" Norman yelled at TJ. "She's been stealing money out of the cash register!" he spat back resting his arm on the counter to support himself.

"He's lying! You know me guys! I would never! He's shortcut my pay just like you guys" I pleaded to them. So many emotions were running through me, I couldn't believe they didn't come to my side so immediately.

"Well If I'm lying huh! Let's see what's in here!" he retorted. Grabbing my bag from out under the counter and then emptying it out.

All my stuff was there, my phone, lip-gloss, bills, business papers, photos, and keys… then there it was. Five hundred dollars cash dropped out of my bag.

Half of me was shocked; the other half wasn't that all surprised. No doubt my expressions were mixed messages as Daniel's eyes dropped to the floor in disappointment like his mind had already been made up about me that I was the one who stole the money.

"C'mon! HE Obviously planted the cash in my bag! You know he's obsess-" I tried to convince them but was cut off by Norman.

"That's enough! Leave! And expect to never work here or anywhere else again!" he yelled.

Never in my life had I imagined to hate someone as much as this. I threw my stuff minus the set-up money back into my bag, I turned towards the door but I was so mad and pissed off that I ended up turning back around and marching right up to him and punching him in the jaw with all the strength I had. I watched him collapse to the ground once more.

Then I stormed out of there as quickly as I could and drove off. My fist never felt satisfaction quite like it but I was sick of being mad. It was a feeling I tried to avoid because of how draining it could be and trying to move on can prove its difficulty.

When I got home and walked through the door, I saw my mother sitting at the table. She looked tired and worried.

" Is everything alright?" I asked.

"Oh God, Brianna" she sighed in relief as she rushed to give me a hug. She ran her hand down the back of my head like she did when I was little. Her warm hands cradled my face and her brown eyes looked at me with a glimmer of happiness and ease.

"Thank goodness you're safe" she said as her hands moved away.

"Why wouldn't they be?" I asked.

A blank expression came across her face and she sat down.

"He wants to press charges against you Brie. For theft and for assault" she covered her mouth with her hands.

"I didn't STEAL anything! He's Lying!" I exclaimed.

"Of course I believe you honey" she looked down. I knew she was holding something back.

I walked towards her and crouched down beside her. She looked at me with small tears about to appear.

"He came here. He said if you wanted the charges to be dropped, you have to marry him"

I was in shock. My body went numb, I became speechless, I couldn't believe what was happening and my mind was thinking at a 100 miles per second maybe even faster.

"Talk to me Brie…Brie!" she said then slightly shaking me out of my trance.

I looked at her then hugged her before grabbing my bag and leaving once again.

"Where are you going!" she yelled

Truth was I hadn't the slightest clue but I knew as far away from here because I was not going to marry that scum.

I tied my hair back and put a big black pair of sunglasses on to try and disguise myself. I took out my phone and rang the only person I knew who could help me.

"Brie what's up?"

"Where are you Nikki?"

"I'm in Missouri... Why? What's happened?"

"Remember my scummy boss? To make a long story short, he set me up and unless I marry him, I could potentially be thrown to the cops… I know you planned on us meeting later but I have nowhere else to go?-"

"Yeah, no it's okay. How are you gonna get here?"

"I'll catch a bus in"

"Alright, what time do you get in?"

"Tomorrow early morning?"

"I'll be there to pick you up. Stay safe sis"

"Thank you so much. I'll see you soon"

I ran to the bus station and got on the first bus out to Missouri. I was tired and overwhelmed. I didn't know where else to go? I needed her- I needed my twin sister. I needed to see her in the flesh. She's all I got now.

Next stop… Finally meeting my twin sister.


I awoke to the bus driver tapping me on the shoulder.

"Miss, we have arrived"

I thanked him with a gracious smile and got of the bus with my bag at hand. I stood at the side of the road waiting for someone like me to come along and pick me up. Instead I was dragged from behind into some gross public toilet.

The hooded person then locked the door.

"What the hell do you think!-" I yelled without thought.

They then turned around and took their hood off.

There she was. Everything about us was the same, our eyes, our hair… it took everything I had to refrain myself from tearing up.

"Well are you just gonna stand there or give me a hug?" she laughed.

I hugged her tight. "I can't believe it…" I said letting go to really look at her.

"I know right? but listen there is no time to talk… remember how I was looking into our history and why we were split up right?"

I nodded allowing her to continue.

"Well, I got some leads in Nevada"

"So you want me to go to Nevada?"

"No, I'm going to Nevada… you're going to pretend to be me"

"You're crazy! I don't know much about you, Heck! You forgot the most important thing! I CAN'T WRESTLE!"

"I took a look at the schedule to come and I'm not even on the card to compete… Besides it'll only be a couple of days and the tour will be coming up to Arizona anyway and we'll make the switch then?"

Nikki then got down on her knees.

"Pleeeeeaaaassse dear sister?" she pleaded.

I sighed before helping her up from the ground.

"I guess that means we need to switch clothes right?"

She jumped up and down excited before we got into separate cubicles throwing each other's clothes over the top and getting changed. Nikki tried giving me the low down on everything about the company, who her friends are, the hotels and what not.

We then walked out to her bus. On the way switching our bags, keys, ID's and whatnot.

"It's gonna take a while by bus to get to Nevada but I call you every step okay?… Oh wait? Here's my phone…Don't worry I'll grab a new one on the way."

"Anything Else I should know?" I asked

"Yeah, practice The Bella Booty Shake!" she said as if it was the most important thing in the world.

"Is that it?" I laughed

"Yeah…Oh shoot! The Boyfriend situation…. Uh Don't worry about that, I'll just call you about it. Also everything you need to know about me is on the laptop anyway. You'll be fine. Remember it's just a couple of days."

She hugged me before stepping on.

I waved her goodbye. Then grabbed the keys and hit the alarm button to find her car and there it was. A flash black rental Mercedes, I hopped inside and turned the engine on. Following Nikki's post it notes on her dashboard about the GPS system and to press 1 to get back to the hotel.

Driving the Black Merc was awesome; I knew I had to make the most of my time as Nikki. This was the excitement I longed for.

The first meeting with my sister wasn't how I imagined it would be but to have finally met her in the flesh. I felt as if a part of me had come back and I was genuinely happy.

However it dawned on me that I'm going to have to try and fool everyone into believing that I'm Nikki and I just hope I don't muck things up for her.
