A Boy Like That

It was official.

"I hate you!"

World War Three had erupted at the Zacchara house.

"I hate you too!"

And it was over a boy.

"You are such a bitch, Regan!" Ava screamed.

Regan's face turned scarlet at her sister's harsh words and Lulu saw her fist clench, almost waiting for the right moment to strike her across the face. Christian snickered to himself in the corner as he continued playing video games. Lulu immediately turned around to face her bickering daughters and her eyes narrowed.

"Language, Ava!" Lulu hissed.

"It's not fair! You don't like him! You don't even want him!" Ava cried.

"It was just one date, Ava! He asked me to go to a movie and I said yes! That's it! It's nothing serious!" Regan shrieked.

"Gavin has been in love with you since we were twelve, Regan! Of course it's serious!" Ava cried.

Apparently, Ava was slightly upset that Gavin had taken Regan on a "date" to the movies that night. Regan had barely gotten through the front door when Ava began her tirade on how much of a horrible sister she was to accept an invitation from the guy that she liked.

"You know that nothing is going on between Gavin and I. We're just friends, Ava… I would never do anything like that to you!" Regan said, imploring her sister to believe her.

"Oh lighten up, Ava… everybody who has eyes can see that Regan's got the hots for Jake Morgan anyway…" Christian sneered and Regan immediately picked up a nearby pillow and launched it at her younger brother.

"No one's talking to you!" Both Ava and Regan shouted.

"Enough!" Lulu screamed.

All three Zacchara children went silent upon hearing their mother's irritated outburst. She usually let Regan and Ava argue, just because that's what sisters did. But enough was enough. She had a massive headache and her screaming sixteen year olds were not helping. Lulu set down her book and rose to her feet. At that moment, Johnny walked in through the front door, home from work, and entered the living room.

"What's going on?" Johnny asked, clearly feeling the tension in the room.

"You two… upstairs… now." Lulu said, pointing to her twins and then towards the staircase.

"Ooh you guys are in trouble…" Christian snickered but Lulu rounded on him.

"One more smart remark and video game privileges will be taken away for two weeks…" Lulu said and Christian immediately went silent.

Regan and Ava sulked upstairs and Christian turned back around to play his video games without making a peep. Lulu sighed heavily and Johnny put his hands on her shoulders and brought her in close. She wrapped her arms around his broad shoulders and exhaled. The entire world and all of its problems still melted away when he held her like this.

"What's going on with the girls? I could hear them arguing from the garage…" he chuckled.

"Gavin invited Regan to the movies tonight and of course Ava has been flipping out about it…" she said and Johnny laughed again.

"Who would've guessed that Spinelli's son would turn out to be popular?" he snickered and Lulu had to smile.

"So very true… alright, I think I should go upstairs to talk to them…" she said, withdrawing from his embrace.

"Do you need some reinforcements?" he asked but she shook her head.

"No, I'll be ok… it's a girl thing anyway…" she said, smirking.

She started to walk away but Johnny caught her wrist and pulled her back towards him. He cupped her face in his hands and kissed her slowly, practically drawing out the breath from her body. She thought that she would be used to kissing him but every single time he did, she felt just as much heat as the first time he kissed her at the overlook, which seemed like almost a lifetime ago. He pulled away and smiled back at her.

"I love you…" he whispered.

"I love you too…" she said before pressing another kiss to his lips.

"Alright, if you don't go upstairs right now… I'm not going to let you leave my arms for the rest of the night…" he said, as he twisted a strand of her blond hair around his fingertips, and Lulu giggled.

"Ew! Get a room!" Christian cried.

"Hey, in a few years… you're going to be just like this over some girl…" Johnny said but Christian shook his head.

"Never…" Christian insisted.

Lulu laughed as Johnny joined him as he played video games. She walked upstairs and into the twins' bedroom and they were both sitting on their beds, on the opposite sides of the room, with their backs to each other. Lulu sighed and shook her head.

"Girls, come here…." Lulu said.

Ava and Regan obeyed their mother and stood up and walked towards her. She looked at both of them, Ava with her sleek blond hair and amber colored eyes and Regan with her dark curls and pensive chocolate colored eyes. Ava had an athletic build from her cheerleading while Regan was slim from her extensive dance training. They were so different but stunningly beautiful at the same time. She and Johnny really did have the prettiest girls in Port Charles.

"You two are sisters… and even though you won't admit it now, you guys love each other… and you should never let a boy get in between what you two have… boys will come and go but you two will have each other forever…" Lulu said.

Regan and Ava looked at each other but quickly looked away and they both folded their arms across their chests. Lulu tried to hide a small smile, knowing that what she had said had resonated with the two of them.

"Regan… if you don't like Gavin in the way that he likes you, then you shouldn't give him false hope… believe me, leading someone on because you want somebody else is never a good idea… you need to tell him the truth… it's not fair to him or yourself…" Lulu said, turning towards Regan.

Lulu had tilted Regan's chin up so that she was looking her directly in the eye and Regan sniffed and nodded her head.

"And Ava… if you want Gavin so badly, you need to tell him… and if he doesn't feel the same way about you then you let it go and move on… but you can't get mad about what Gavin does if he doesn't know how you feel…" Lulu said as she held Ava's face in her fingertips.

Ava wiped her eyes and nodded like her sister had done. Lulu smiled again and sighed. She saw so much of herself in these two girls. Of course, the situation with Logan and Johnny was a little bit more complicated than Regan's predicament. Lulu thanked god that it wasn't just as complicated but she knew how she felt. And of course she had been there where Ava had been. She remembered exactly how she felt that her feelings for Johnny were screaming at her, wanting to come out, but she just never had to nerve to say anything.

"Didn't your dad and I teach you to never settle? I sure didn't settle and neither should you… always go after what you want… and besides, you're Spencers and Zaccharas… and we don't settle…" Lulu said, smiling.

Both Ava and Regan smiled upon hearing their mother's words and they both wrapped their arms around her and squeezed her tightly. Lulu kissed the tops of her daughter's heads and couldn't help but to laugh. She was pretty sure that she had just unleashed many potential sleepless nights for her husband because these girls were going to have any guy they chose wrapped around their fingers.
