Disclaimer: I Don't Own Nikita
A/N: This is set after 2.14 vaguely I'm using what happen on 2.13 really happened in this. I'll be going my own way after that though.
Bridget was standing by the bar, "I need a shot, make it a double, quick."
Then Sean said, "Actually pal, I wouldn't do that if I were you, she's seventeen."
"Sean!" Bridget shouted embarrassed.
He took off his jacket and put it on her. "Here, cover yourself up. We're leaving."
"Hey, that's not fair, Mr. Overprotective!" Bridget squirmed.
"What isn't fair is mom paying for prep school for you to be clubbing on a school night, slutting it up."
Bridget scoffed, "Oh, Seanie, you've wouldn't know what 'slutting it up' was if it was lap dancing on your lap." She said mortified before marching out.
Alex looked at Sean and said, "You're way huh?"
"Alex, don't tell me how to handle my own family, okay?" Sean said.
"Fine, if that's how you want to play it, that's how I'll play it. Good cop, bad cop." Alex said slyly.
"Alex she's my sister not a mark or criminal we're interrogating." Sean said.
"Exactly." Alex said triumphantly.
Bridget was marching down the street and Alex ran after her, "Bridget! Hold up!"
"What do you want?" Bridget asked annoyed.
"I just want to talk." Alex said.
"Look you seem nice and all, but I'd rather just cool off by myself whenever Sean goes into full brother mode." She started walk again when Alex grabbed her hand.
"Look, I know it must be hard to have a guy like Sean for a brother. He can sometimes seem like a jerk, can be so annoying, and not to mention pig headed." Alex said feeling like she could go on forever about Sean's many annoying traits. Man, he sure could get under her skin. Sometimes she felt like he took pleasure in that.
"Wow, and he's your boyfriend?"
Alex paused for a moment, trying not to show her the truth of her distain for this man she was trying to pretend was her boyfriend, so she went back in sweet girlfriend mode and said, "Yes, because his overprotectiveness might be annoying, but his heart is in the right place. He's just looking out for you. There's not that many people like your brother out there."
Bridget sighed. "I know, he just gets so annoying sometimes, you know."
Alex smiled and said, "Oh believe me, I know." Then they both laughed.
Then Sean caught up with them and said, "What are you two talking about?"
"Oh, how annoying you are!" Bridget said enthusiastic.
"Great." Sean said.
Then Bridget asked,
, "So how did you two meet?"
"We work together." Alex immediately said.
"You work together?" Bridget asked surprised, and then turned to her brother's girlfriend. "You're in the Navy? Really?"
"Uh, yeah." Alex said.
"How do you keep your hair so gorgeous?"
Alex smiled, "It's a gift. Thanks."
"So was it love at first sight?" Bridget asked.
Alex laughed, "Hardly."
Sean looked at her with his piercing eyes.
"No when we first met we put our guns to each other's heads." Alex continued.
Bridget looked between Sean and Alex and laughed, "So it was a love hate romance from the start?"
"Something like that." Alex said not looking at Sean.
"Cool. " Bridget said.
"OK, Bridget, so we thought it would be cool if we take you out of school for a three day weekend and stay home to you know catch up, while we're on leave." Sean said controlled.
Bridget looked at Sean skeptically, "You, Mr. Pole up his ass, wants me to skip school?"
"It's not like you haven't done it before." Sean said.
"Yeah, weren't you just lecturing me about wasting mom's precious money by not taking prep school seriously?"
"If you would really rather go to school…"
"No, of course I'm in on skipping school it's just out of character for you. Is something up?" Bridget asked.
"No, can't a brother want to catch up with his sister without an ulterior motive?"
"Whatever, I'm not one to look a gift horse in his butt."
"It's his mouth." Sean corrected.
"Whatever, OK, I'll go to my dorm room and pack."
"Good, we'll come with you." Sean said.
Then Sean did a fresh sweep and made sure there weren't any suspicious characters around. Alex did the same. As they reached their dorm room Bridget said, "OK, can you just stay here while I unpack?"
"Why do you have something to hide?" Sean asked.
"No, I just prefer not to pack in front of my judgmental brother." Bridget said exasperated.
"We'll only be gone a few days." Sean said.
"I'm a girl!"
"So!"
"Feminine products! I'll be packing feminine products!" Bridget yelled.
That made Sean's face go pale. Alex couldn't help but laugh at his face. What was with guys and feminine products?
"Ok, OK, don't say it so loud. Alex will go with you."
"Why?" Bridget asked suspicious.
Then Alex smiled warmly, "Bridget, I think it'd be a good time to get to know each other that is what this whole trip is about. Plus, I'm sure you have some embarrassing stories about Sean you wouldn't mind sharing."
"Well, I have a few." Bridget said looking like that explanation appeased her.
Alex looked back at Sean and then she hugged him with a great big grin and said loudly with a little over the top bubbly smile, "Don't worry sweetie we won't be too long."
Then she kissed him on the cheek and she softly moved her lips and whispered in his ear, "The perimeter looks clear but I'll make sure she's safe. Don't worry I got this."
Sean froze for a moment and then he hugged her back and said, "Sure thing… sweet pea."
Alex continued to smile wide and sweetly still in her undercover sweet girlfriend mode. Alex was amused how uncomfortable Sean looked, it must be killing him. She knew going undercover and pretending to be something he was not wasn't exactly natural to him. The time Sean was pretending to be interested in her romantically sprung to mind. What kind of guy asked you to kiss him as form of payment? The boy obviously wasn't very versed in the art of seduction.
Alex then followed Bridget to her dorm room. She got a duffle bag and started throwing clothes in it. Then she took a bottle of vodka from under her bed and put it in her bag.
Alex smiled, "Feminine Products huh?"
"Yea, it works every time." Bridget smiled triumphantly.
Then she turned to Alex and asked, "You won't tell him, right?"
"My lips are sealed but the best way for you not to get caught is to not have it there at all." Alex said.
"Nice try, but I don't think I can handle possibly seeing my mother without something taking the edge off at some point."
"Wait? You're mother? I didn't think she'd be home." Alex said in a little of a panic mode. She didn't know why it wasn't like they were straight up enemies. Madeline Pierce did have a reluctant truce with Nikita and these days Alex was on Nikita's side although she hadn't had the guts to tell Nikita about her whole taking over Zevtrov plan. She knew that Nikita wouldn't approve and she was pretty sure Madeline Pierce wouldn't approve either. She only met her once in a dark room where she was just a vague ominous member of Oversight striking a deal with her. Now she was the last member of Oversight. Now she was Nikita's reluctant ally. Now she was Sean's mom and there was something about that that made her throat tightened up in just the thought of having to meet her.
"Wait? You haven't met her yet?"
"Oh? No, not yet." Alex said a bit nervous.
"Oh, so he introduced me first. I'm touched. Well, that clenches it I'll bring it in case you need it." She said putting the bottle in the bag securing it.
"I won't." Alex said resolved.
"Oh honey, this is my mom! She's tough. She expects nothing but the best form the Pierces and she expects even more from anyone we date. You'll need this! Believe me! " Bridget said.
"No, I am very sure you're mom does have high standards for anyone dating Sean, I just… I don't drink." Alex said.
"Why?" Bridget asked.
"I used to be a junkie. I can't really take my chances with anything addictive." Alex said.
"Oh, OK, fair enough. I just have to change in the bathroom. I'll be right back." Bridget said.
She took another duffle bag from underneath her bed and headed to the bathroom.
"I'll be right here." Alex said with a soft smile.
After Bridget closed the door she examined the room for any clues that Guardians had been here. She checked the window to make sure everything here was secure and Bridget wasn't in any danger.
Bridget came back out in skinny jeans and a stylish t-shirt with a Prada purse and knee high boots.
"Alright I'm all set. Let the 'sibling bonding oh my crap my brother finally has girlfriend weekend' commence." Bridget said.
"Lets!" Alex said.
