Shootout - Chapter 3
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Brenda is in her bedroom at the cottage getting ready for the engagement party when she hears a knock at the door. She quickly opens the door to her bedroom and walks down the stairs
" I'm coming..." says Brenda still brushing her hair
She opens the door when she see's Robin standing there. She gasps
" Omigod! Robin!" says Brenda as she hugs her tightly
" Hey you!" says Robin as she returns the hug
" Come in. I didn't even know that you could make it? You said that you had to work." says Brenda
" I know I did but I talked to my boss and he let me have some extra days off. I had to come since I can't come to the wedding because of my baby sister's funeral." says Robin sadly
" I am so sorry about Leora. That's just so sad. How's Anna doing?" says Brenda as they sit on the couch
" She's really hurting. We all are. Leora was the sweetest little girl. I only saw her a few times but I got really attached from just the first few times I saw her. David's taking it to worst." says Robin
" Well when you see her give her my love and tell her that I'm sorry for your loss." says Brenda
Robin puts her hand on Brenda's
" I will. So...onto happier things, are you excited about the wedding?" says Robin
Brenda smiles at Robin as she laughs
" Robin, I have never been so in love in my entire life. I feel so relaxed and positive with Jason. It's amazing. This must be really awkward for you since..." says Brenda
" Don't even. Jason and I were over a long time ago. We were so young and made so many mistakes. But you found love with him. And I am really happy for you guys. Even if the memories I do remember of you two were ripping eachother to shreds." jokes Robin
They both laugh
" Yeah, we went through some tough times this time around too. But we just...I don't know. We just fell in love. And realized that our "fake" marriage turned into something so much more." says Brenda
Robin smiles
" I remember when I found out that you were alive and married to Jason. I thought that I was in some kind of alternate universe." jokes Robin with a laugh
Brenda laughs
" Yeah I bet THAT was a shock." says Brenda
She glances at the clock behind Robin
" Oh, I've got to finish getting ready. The engagement party is in like an hour. You can help yourself to whatever you want. I'll be right back." says Brenda as she stands
" Brenda?" says Robin
" Yeah?" says Brenda facing her
" I'm really happy for you and Jason. I just want you two to be happy." says Robin with a small smile
Brenda smiles as she hugs Robin
" Thank you. Your the best friend a girl could ask for." says Brenda with a smile as she heads upstairs to finish getitng ready
At the Spencer house...
Lulu and Brooke Lyn come in the Spencer house laughing
" He was NOT hitting on me! I'm telling you he liked you." says Lulu
" Ok, Lu he walked in and asked for your number." says Brooke as they head up to Lulu's room
" I know, but he was looking at you the whole time." says Lulu
" Yeah right. Why would he be looking at me?" says Brooke as she sits on Lulu's bed
Lulu looks back at Brooke Lyn as she begins to look through her closet
" Brooke, stop it. Guys like you." says Lulu
She finds a button up, blue halter top in the closet. She takes it out and holds it up to herself
" What do you think about this for the engagement party?" says Lulu
" It's a little flashy." says Brooke
Lulu rolls her eyes as she throws the top at Brooke
" That's your problem right there." says Lulu as she sits next to her on the bed
" What?" says Brooke
" There is no such thing as too flashy, Brooke. To be noticed you have to be noticeable." says Lulu
Brooke walks over to the closet and looks at Lulu
" I'm not going to Brenda's engagement party to pick up a guy." says Brooke
" Or two. You may get lucky." says Lulu with a laugh
Brooke laughs as she throws a towel laying on the back of Lulu's chair at Lulu
" I don't want to embarrass myself. I think I've already accepted the fact that guys like you more than they like me." says Brooke
Lulu stands up as she faces Brooke
" Will you PLEASE just trust me on this? Let me pick out a killer outfit for you to wear at the party tonight, and I guarentee that you'll have a date by the end." says Lulu
Brooke sighs as she puts her hand on her forehead
" No, Lulu this isn't going to work." says Brooke
" YES it will. I am the master matchmaker and I promise I won't let you go home with a loser." jokes Lulu
Brooke lightly smack Lulu on the shoulder
" I'm not going HOME with anyone." says Brooke
" Don't I know this. Plus, think of it this way. If something gets out of hand, you've got all the mobsters and the "godfather" of Port Charles to back you up." jokes Lulu
" That's not funny." says Brooke
Lulu laughs as she starts looking through her closet for something for Brooke to wear
