A/N-This chapter will be a crossover of the Golden Girls and Designing Women. On DW, the episode, 'The Mistress', was about the girls ( and Anthony ) were hired by a Ancel Pollard to redesign his condo and house, one for his mistress and the other for his mistress.

On Golden Girls, they had Patrick Vaughn, a no count actor who came and had his way with EVERYBODY! Both characters were played by the same man so I thought I would have a little fun.

* Lives

Julia is alive during this but she or any of the DW girls will be in here, I'm just focusing on Ancel and Patrick.

Ancel was walking around in his apartment and it was beautifully decorated in neo-classic. He stopped at his newest addition to the place...a beautiful, black iron statue of a buck in running form and he was admiring the sleek piece when his doorbell rang and he went to go answer it and there stood his half brother, Patrick. Everybody said that Patrick and Ancel were nothing less than twins, in mannerism, tastes and especially in appearances. Seems like their father left his print on people in so many ways.

Ancel looked at his brother and says, "Patrick!" The brothers "hug" then Ancel stands back and lets his brother walk in the room and Ancel asks,

"Drink?"

Patrick nods his head then says,

"Yes, please. Brandy and rum if you got it"

Ancel nods his head and fixes his brother his drink then as he hands it to him, he asks,

"May I ask what you are doing here? I thought you were in Miami working at some...seafood place"

Patrick takes the drink and takes a sip then says, "Ah yes, Captain's Jack's seafood shanty, well, my time has run out there...my agent called and says he has a job for me in Hollywood on a show called 'Days of our Lives'"

Ancel shakes his head then Patrick asks him, "What about you? Why are you here? Where's Gabby?"

Ancel looks up at him and says, "We went our seperate ways". Patrick takes another sip of his drink then says, "She found out you were married, right?"

Ancel shakes his head then asks his brother,"What about your women? Do you keep in touch with any of them?"

Patrick finishes his drink in one gulp the says, "We all decided to go our separate ways much like you and Gabby" Ancel then says,

"I told you that you had too many" Patrick puts down his glass then says, "So did you"

Ancel then says, "I only had one wife and one mistress"

The brothers laugh and Ancel motions for his brother to sit on one end of the couch and he sits on the other then he asks, "Did you say you were going to California to work ?"

Patrick shakes his head then says, "Yes, on Days of our lives, a soap opera. I know it's not much but in my line of work, you can't turn down job offers"

Ancel shakes his head then says,

"If I recall reading the front cover of one of those magazines in the doctor's office...isn't Le Ann Hunley on that show also?"

Patrick smiles with satisfaction and says, "Yes, she is"

Ancel thinks on something then says,

"Listen, I have some time coming for a vacation. Why don't I go with you, we can take my private jet...you haven't made any reservations with a airline have you?"

Patrick nods his head no then picks up a cigar from his brother's box on the coffee table and his brother says,

"Let me go make arrangements and we will be gone before midnight. I think I would like to meet this woman"

Patrick lights the cigar and sits back then says to himself when his brother leaves the room,

"Just like I planned"

A/N-Here I am again to explain some things about the chapter! Le Ann Hunley played Gabby, the mistress on the episode so I couldn't resist putting this beautiful woman in the fanfic.

There is something else that I put in this story that ties in ( hint-it's a decoration in Ancel's living room )

Please read and review
