Chapter 5: My Sister, My Twin
Portman stood there staring in complete shock, for standing in the doorway was the girl he had literally ran into a few hours before. The girl that had not left his mind since their meeting earlier, a girl named, "Francesca" he whispered softly as he noticed that this time her sunglasses were off, showing her sapphire blue eyes.

Fulton and Frankie stared at each other for a few moments before she happily laughed before throwing her arms around Fulton's neck, hugging him close, which he returned.
"Damn Frankie, I missed you" Fulton said happily as Frankie pulled back from the embrace.
"I missed you too" she said before she turned to the Ducks. "Well" she said to them, "Where's my greeting D-5?" she said as the Ducks quickly got up and soon tackling her in hugs, expect for the new Ducks.
"Man Frankie, where you been?" Charlie asked, soon followed with multiple questions.
"Come on guys, I believe introductions are in order" Connie says as Fulton wraps his arm around Frankie's shoulder.
The rest the ducks, who were either confused or in shock quickly overcame it.
"Wait" Russ said in confusion. "Frankie is a girl?" obviously lost, "I mean all that stuff you told about Frankie and Frankie ends up being a girl."
"Yes!" Julie said as she and Connie high fived happily, "Now were not the only girls anymore."
"A girl?" Luis said as he looks the girl up and down, and by the look on his face and in his eyes he liked what he was seeing, "A very beautiful girl" he said to himself.
"Frankie, his is Dwayne Robertson, also known as Cowboy" he said moving Frankie's body towards Dwayne.
"Mama" Dwayne said while tipping his hat off to her.
"Russ Tyler, Luis Mendoza" Fulton said as he continued to move her so that she was facing each boy. "Greetings, my beautiful flower" Luis said while still eyeing her, while reach out to most likely kiss her hand.
"Back off Mendoza" Fulton threatened, his arms still wrapped around Frankie's shoulder.
"This is Julie "The Cat" Gaffney our other goalie, Ken Wu" he said, but before he continued Frankie cut him off.
"The figure skater?" she asked confused. "Yeah" he said as he turns towards Portman, "And this is-"
"Dean Portman, enforcer and fellow Bash Brother" she says as she smiles at Portman.
"You remember" Fulton asked.
"Yeah, I ran into him earlier, literally I might add" Frankie said as she laughs.
Fulton looked between Frankie and Portman before remembering something that Portman said earlier after practice.
"Wait! Is this the girl that you said was hot earlier?" Fulton asked wide eyed as it finally dawned on him.
Portman rubs the back of his head slightly, "Yeah, but she said her name was Francesca" Portman said as he looked between Fulton and Frankie.
"Damn Portman, you were eyeing Fulton's girl" Russ said as he laughed.
Silence seen to cover the room as the Ducks all looked at Fulton and Frankie who had either a disgusted or horrified look.
Suddenly, both Fulton and Frankie burst out laughing along with the original D-5 Ducks.
"You-you think Frankie Fulton's girlfriend" Charlie said between fits of laughter.
"She's my sister, my twin in fact" Fulton said as some of the Ducks eyes get as huge as baseballs.
"Your sister!" the new Ducks yell while Portman's jaw's drop.
-His sister! Shit! Not good- he cursed.
"But Portman said her name was Francesca" Luis said once the Ducks stopped laughing.
"It is, but my full name is Francesca 'Frankie' Jade Reed" Frankie said as she laughs.
"So Frankie, where were you during the time when we were Team USA, we could have used you and where were you last year? Adam asked.
When Adam asked this both Fulton and Frankie got quite.
"Let's just same I had some things to take care of" she said with a hint of sadness.
"What did-" Connie started, but was cut off by Fulton.
"Don't ask" Fulton says and judging by the tone of his voice he was saying 'drop the subject'.
"Well, I don't know about you guys, but I'm hungry" Goldberg says, braking the silence the seem to have creped in.
"Me too" Charlie agreed, "Let's go get something to eat, you coming Frankie?" Charlie asked as he turned and looked at her.
"Nah, I think I'm going to stay here, but I'll see you guys later" she said as she smiled.
"Me too, Frankie and I got some catching up to do" Fulton said as Charlie nods.
"Alright, later Frankie, good to have you back on the team" he said as he walks out the door followed by the rest of the Ducks.
"See ya Fulton" Portman says as he nods before looking at Frankie, "Frankie" he said before walking out the door, closing it behind him.
As he followed the rest of the Ducks the same thing kept repeating though his mind,
-She's his sister-
As soon as the door closed Frankie turned to face her brother, a sad and serious look now took over her once happy expression.
"They don't know do they?" Frankie asked as Fulton shook his head.
"No" Fulton said sadly as he draws his sister into an embrace, her head berried into his shoulder.
"I promised that I wouldn't tell them, but you know their going to find out. You can't hide it forever you know" Fulton says as he felt Frankie nod her head against his shoulder.
"I know, it just hard. You think I'd be over it by now" she whispered as Fulton just nodded his head while rubbing her back, attempting to comfort his sister.
