Normal POV

"I just do not see why you have taken it upon yourself to kidnap me from the solitude of my home. And you're speeding." Alex mumbles glaring outside the passenger window, then glaring at her sister who is shaking her head and rolling her eyes.

"Five miles over the speed limit is not speeding, and if you're going to keep complaining, I'm going to drop you on the side of the road and make you walk back." Addy replies focusing her eyes on the road. She still is a little weary about what she's doing, but because of Casey's phone call that woke her up at dark thirty in the morning with the most insane idea that could ever be thought of. Strangely enough, she felt herself complying with the redhead's idea, so that's why she is currently making the most impossible drive, with the most impossible passenger.

She glances at Alex and then down at her hand which is splinted and bandaged. "What happened to your hand?" she asks turning back to the road once more. Alex shifts uncomfortable and hides her hand in her coat, looking back out the window.

"I fell…" she mumbles, mentally wincing at how pitiful her lie is. Thankfully Addy doesn't press on, and she will probably be forever grateful for it. "Where are we going?"

Addy simply shakes her head and says nothing, what she had been doing for the past thirty minutes when Alex asked her the exact same question. Alex senses her sister's denseness, and huffs and sinks lower into her seat. She hates surprises, and she would think her sister of all people would know that. She thinks for a moment before settling on striking up random conversation.

"Addison you are like the only attorney I know that doesn't drive a Mercedes…" she says amusingly.

Addy smirks and chuckles. "Not true, Casey drives a Lexus. You and Abbie don't make up the entire population of lawyers. My car is sexier than yours, and probably more expensive."

"I hardly doubt an Audi is considered sexier than a Mercedes but I'll let you live this dream. Just like I let you live the dream of you're the older sister."

"That isn't a dream, it's the truth. Do I need to pull out our birth certificates? I'm older than you, and don't you ever forget it. Now stop acting like a baby because we're here." Addy states turning on to the long paved driveway.

Alex recognizes where they are as the larger manor comes into view and she feels her heart drop into the depths of her stomach. At this moment, she can't explain how much she wishes to choke her sister within an inch of her life. She's positive that she's paled at least three shades more than she already is.

Addy glances over at Alex's expression and grimaces. She knows that it probably will backfire on her big time that she's done this, but once again her conscience is telling her that she's done the right thing. But she knows for a fact that her twin disagrees. She pulls up in front of the house and waits for the fireworks to go off.

"What the fuck are we doing here? Take me home. Now."

"Alex c'mon, can you please cooperate with me for once in your life? Please?"

"Addison I mean it, take me home, or I will fight you for your keys right now."

Addy purses her lips into a thin line and executes the signature Cabot glare, a glare that would make even the strongest of criminals wet themselves. She quickly gets out of the car, slamming the door, as she storms to the other side. She yanks open the Alex's door and folds her arms.

"Get out of the car. We can either do this the easy way or the hard way. The easy way is you complying like a good girl and getting out of the car. The hard way is me yanking you out of this car by your hair and dragging you up those steps. You have three seconds to decide before I decide for you Alexandra. And trust me, my way will not be the way that would be more accommodating to you." she says sternly.

Alex glares at her for a moment before she exits the car. She knows for a fact that Addy does not give empty threats and she would rather not dragged anywhere by her hair. She watches as her sister closes the car door and the two advance up the steps of the mansion.

Addy rings the doorbell and turns to her glaring sister who looks like she is turning red with angry.

"Look, I know that this may not have been the best idea…it wasn't mine actually. But this might be good for you. Just, try to cooperate, okay?" she begs. Alex simply glares at her again and turns her head, feeling deceived and betrayed.

After a few seconds, a small elderly woman carrying a duster and some cleaner answers the door and greets them both with a warm smile. Addy returns her smile while Alex mutters something incoherent and turns away.

"Addison! It's always lovely to see you darling. And I see that you have convinced Alexandra to join you in your visit. Come in, come, come." The woman steps aside and the two sisters enter the house. One a little more reluctant than the other.

Addy takes in her surroundings before turning back to the woman. "It's always good to see you Maddie. Tell me, is mother in?" she asks. Maddie nods and begins dusting random areas out of habit.

"Yes, she is. She's in the family room." She replies leading their way and smiling at Alex in particular. "It's been so long since I've seen you. It seems like you've hardly even changed."

Alex rolls her eyes, "You see my sister. We look the same. It's close enough." She says flatly. Addy shakes her head and grabs her sisters arm beckoning for her to follow the maid.

"Can you be anything but rude?" she whispers sharply in Alex's ear. Alex shoves her off and rolls her eyes again not in the mood to be lectured by her sister.

Maddie leads them into the family room where they are greeted by a pair of hands clutching a newspaper in a chair opposite from them. Maddie clears her throat addressing the figure behind the paper. "Your daughters are here to see you." she says sweetly putting emphasis on daughters where it is usually just daughter.

Victoria Cabot puts down her newspaper and stares at the trio before her, her mouth slightly agape at seeing that her technical youngest has finally decided to pay a visit. She folds the paper and stands from her chair walking over to them.

"Thank you Maddie." She says thanking the maid who nods and goes to proceed about her cleanings.

Victoria steps forward and pulls Addy into a hug first, knowing that it's going to be the easiest of the task. "It's so good to see you Addison." She says as she pulls way.

"It's good to see you too Mom." Addy replies smiling. Victoria turns towards Alex and moves to embrace her as well but the youngest Cabot takes a full step back and narrows her eyes.

"Mother." Alex says flatly.

Addy internally sighs and she runs a hand through her hair. She knew that Alex would act a like never would she have thought that her sister would turn down right Ice Queen on their mother. Maybe this wasn't such a good idea.

Short. But a filler. Leave your thoughts! Leave a review!
