This is a crossover between BH 90120 and General Hospital. It didn't start out that way but then it just hit me. I love the character of Robin Scorpio from GH and I love Brenda Walsh from BH 90210 and although they are completely different, I think it's interesting how they both ended up in France because of screwed up relationships, so I've forged a friendship between the two and I didn't really mean to but the Robin and Brandon thing fell into my lap, so I'm going to go with it.
What you need to know: Some things are the same, but some are different. Dylan and Kelly did get together and it broke Brenda's heart, causing her to leave L.A. for Paris for ten years. She stayed in touch with her family, Steve (strangely enough), Valerie (who she's close to), and Nat, but not the rest of the gang. She hasn't spoken to Dylan or Kelly in ten years. She met Dr. Robin Scorpio (who is from Port Charles, NY) in Paris and they became really close friends. Now she's back in L.A. because she's ready to come home. After Brenda left, Dylan and Kelly tried to make a relationship work, but it didn't last because they realized they weren't "it" for each other. Now they are really good friends. There was no Toni for Dylan and Kelly and Brandon… well you'll find out. Hope you enjoy.
Disclaimer: I do not own any characters for BH 90210 or General Hospital.
Chapter 1
Los Angeles, California. Brenda Walsh looked around her and took in her surroundings, it had been ten years since she had been in this city and nothing had changed. It still smelled the same, looked the same and as strange as it sounded felt the same. And she hadn't even left the airport yet. Grabbing the last of her suitcases, Brenda started to head outside to see if her brother had arrived to pick her up when her cell phone rang.
"Hey Bren" she heard her brother's voice
"Brandon" she cried excitedly "I just picked up my stuff and I'm headed out, are you here?'
"Bren, I'm sorry, I couldn't make it, I'm stuck at work, but I sent someone to get you, they should be there soon"
"What? Brandon you haven't seen me in two years and can't even take the time to pick your little sister up from the airport after her long flight" Brenda laid it on thick
"I know, I know, I'll make it up to you, I promise"
"Ok, but whoever you sent better be totally worth it" she smiled
"Oh, I totally am" she heard a voice from behind her and turned to see her friend Steve Sanders standing behind her.
"Steve!" she dropped her bags and launched into his open arms "Oh my gosh"
"Ok, you're forgiven" she told Brandon before hanging up the phone and turning back to Steve
"Look at you" she smiled
"Look at you, Ms. Paris, you look great" he hugged her again "welcome back"
"Thanks, it's good to be back" at his skeptical look, she laughed, "really, I didn't think it would be, but it is, especially seeing you and just being here, it feels good."
"Good, because it's been too long and as much as Paris seems to suit you, this is home"
"Speaking of home, do you know what I'm in the mood for? A hamburger with everything on it, fries and a milkshake, oh god a milkshake that will make my arteries clog just looking at it."
"I know just the place"

Brandon Walsh was finishing up his column at the LA Newspaper that he worked for. He'd been about to leave to pick his sister up when one of his sources had called to give him a lead for a story he had been working on for the last few weeks. It was almost wrapped up now and would be front page tomorrow morning for all of Los Angeles to read. Brandon Walsh, Investigative Reporter, he mused. He still couldn't believe it sometimes when he actually thought about it. Small town boy from Minnesota now writing for one of the biggest papers in L.A. and his stories were getting on the front page.
He'd just e-mail his story in and was about to get up when his phone rang.
"Hey man" he heard his best friend's voice "you down for a beer on the beach tonight?"
"Dylan dude, I can't I have plans"
"Hot date?" Dylan teased his friend, Brandon had been avoiding going out since his breakup with the delectable Dr. Robin Scorpio. He'd met her when he had gone to visit Brenda in Paris a few years ago, and when Robin had moved back to Port Charles, NY last year, they had started a long distance relationship. He could tell his friend had fallen hard for the doctor and from what he had gathered after meeting her, he'd thought that Robin had fallen hard for Brandon too. He wasn't sure exactly what happened between them but Brandon had been a little cranky for the past few weeks. He actually sounded happy for a change and Dylan wanted to encourage him.
"Come on, man spill it, who's the woman?"
"Actually" Brandon hesitated "It's Brenda" judging by the silence on the other end of the line, Brandon wasn't sure if Dylan had hung up the phone or not "Hello?"
"I'm here" he said "Brenda's back in town?" he asked quietly. He felt like someone had just knocked the breath out of him. "Well shit then".
"I was gonna tell you, but it was sort of sudden, you know Bren, when she makes a decision, she just goes with it" Brandon finished packing his stuff and headed for the elevator "I'd invite you, but it's my first time seeing her in almost two years and…"
"Yeah…no I understand, besides I doubt she will want me hanging around anyway" Dylan scoffed.
"It's been a long time man, not even Bren can hold a grudge that long" Brandon tried to appease him
"Righttttt, you know we're talking about your sister right?" Dylan laughed "I'll catch up with you later"
Please R&R, I'm still trying to figure out where the story is leading and I'm think about bringing more GH characters into it, but we'll see.
