A/n: I've written General Hospital fanfic for about four years now and, have recently found myself getting bored of writing the SAME things so, here recently I have just started playing with the timelines and just changing them. You'll see what I mean once you read my writing, I apologize in advance if you don't like what I write.
Prologue...
Claudia's POV
"I haven't felt this bad since Mardi Grais in '03...Allah give me the strength." The brunette groaned putting one hand to her pounding head, as she jogged down the stairs of Crimson Pointe to go downstairs to the main room of the house.
"Allah?" Johnny Zacchara quirked an eyebrow, half of him didn't even want to know what his sister was going on about.
"John, just because I'm an atheist doesn't mean I can't have fun at god's expense." Claudia slumped on the couch, glad their father wasn't down yet.
"Allah would be Islamic-why am I trying to talk to you about religion? I don't even have a belief system. So, when are you going to give up this thing with Lansing? You know it's never going anywhere, father would kill the both of you if he ever found out." Johnny quickly blinked away his confusion, before dwelling into the next subject.
"Maybe we have something good, John. It's not like daddy hasn't tried to kill that whore of yours." Claudia scoffed.
"Her name is Lulu and she's my girlfriend, I would appreciate if you'd start calling her by her name. I think if you gave her half the chance...you'd really like her." Johnny got tired of playing referee between his sister and girlfriend...truthfully Claudia did start most of the drama.
"John, I will never like you're little Lulu. She's no good for you...the sooner you realize that the better off everyone else will be." Claudia made a disgruntled face, before rising from the couch.
"Why don't you go out with that Maxie girl? She's nice, pretty, knows what to do with herself. Leave Lulu to the slums of the city, she's just a little girl." Claudia turned around to glare.
"What can I do to make you like me? I know we got off on the wrong foot but, telling you're brother to leave me for Maxie? Jesus." Lulu Spencer spoke from the doorway of the living room, hazel eyes skeptically scanning the room.
"Who let YOU in? Daddy's not even out of bed yet!" Claudia barely looked at the young woman.
"I did. Would it kill you to be nice?" Ric Lansing pops his head in the door.
"Is there anything I can do? Maybe we could get lunch and talk it over. I really would like to make amends with you, Claudia." Lulu was being sincere, Johnny felt a twinge of sadness for his girlfriend.
"I'd rather poke my own eyeballs out." Claudia breezes out of the room, leaving the three in the living room.
"If there's any consolation, I think it was nice of you to try." Ric spoke.
"I know I've been acting dramatic...I just want to at least try to get along with Claudia." Lulu sighed, running a hand through her honey blonde locks.
"Lu, it's alright. Claudia is the type to hold grudges...it'll just take time. Thank you. Thank you for caring...that means a lot to me." A slow smile spread across the young man's face, before kissing the center of her forehead.
