Brie Bella sat on the couch next to Alicia Fox with hot chocolate clad in her hands, smiling and taking a sip from the burning cup every few minutes or so. They were watching Dog the Bounty Hunter, something Kaitlyn had gotten them hooked on.

"That Leland dude is hot." Alicia says, "Thank goodness I'm single, so that I can say things like that without feeling guilty."

Brie rolls her eyes and sets her cup down on the table, "We've been watching this marathon all day, I feel like we should do something productive."

Alicia groans and stretches out her legs on Brie, "Productive? That sounds very boring."

Brie's cellphone chimes and she scrabbles to get it out of her pocket while shoving Alicia's legs off of her, she finally retrieves her phone and flips through until she finds the text.

Her stomach does back-flips and her throat instantly dries, "It's from Nikki." Her voice is wary and shaky as she skims the text.

"There better be a crappy apology in there somewhere." Alicia says, watching Brie intensely.

Can we meet for coffee at Starbucks? The text reads, Brie sighs and quickly texts her back: meet you in ten.

Brie hoists Alicia's long legs off of her and stands up, "I have to go meet her."

"Huh, is it just me or does going off to meet your psychotic sister seem like a bad idea? You did just put a beat down on her boyfriend." Alicia grabs Brie by the wrist and pulls herself up, "Are you sure you're going to be okay?"

Brie exhales, "I'll be fine. I don't think she's bringing Wade, so I don't think I'll need any backup."

"Just call me if you need a getaway car or a diversion, I can do both." Alicia gives her a sincere smile, "I hope you two work things out."

"Me too."


Arriving at Starbucks, did Brie feel uneasy? Of course she did, her sister was perfectly unpredictable, she could fling burning coffee at her and Brie wouldn't have seen it coming.

So she felt sick to her stomach when her twin, Nikki Bella, strode into the restaurant.

Nikki orders a coffee and then sits across from Brie, the coffee steaming in her hands, "Weird, isn't it?"

Brie backs her chair up a little bit, taking a sip out of her own coffee, watching Nikki with wary eyes, "Depends on what you're talking about."

Nikki grimaces and shakes her coffee a bit to mix in the sugar. "This whole business is just weird." Nikki pauses for a few moments, lost in thought, "I let a Championship tear us apart."

Brie swallows hard and keeps staring at her.

"I've been pretty terrible to you for the past few months. Hell, we didn't even spend Christmas together because things got so bad." Nikki sighs and takes a sip of her coffee, grimacing with the hot liquid burns her tongue.

"I want to blame your story line, I really do." Nikki seems to be holding onto her coffee as if it's her life, "But at the end of the day, I'm still the chick that messed everything up."

"I want to blame him."

Brie winces at the mention of her boyfriend, CM Punk, "Of course you do."

Nikki looks up, surprised by Brie actually speaking to her, "I feel as if he's the reason.. that this happened." She gestures between the two.

"It would have happened with any other guy." Brie says calmly, not wanting to get mad and go absolutely off on her. "You were mad because I got a push and you didn't."

"Then, when you got one, you took it too seriously and.." Brie swallows hard, her calm exterior beginning to fade a bit, "That was it, you blew up. You forgot who you were."

Nikki is looking at her with a burning intensity now, "I forgot who I was?"

Brie leans towards her over the table, "You're not the diva I auditioned for FCW with. If I had known this was how we'd turn out, I wouldn't have let either of us audition."

"So, WWE ruined us."

"Yeah, you could say that." Brie says huskily, "But we had a pretty good time, didn't we?"

"We had a pretty good run." Nikki smiles, a genuine smile, not some evil and sneaky smile, but just.. a smile.

Brie smiles, "Anyways, I have to get back, I have a photoshoot tonight and I better get all the sleep I can." Brie stands up from the table but Nikki stops her.

"Hey, are we okay?"

Brie pauses for a moment while she's picking up her jacket, "Yeah, I'd say we were."
