"Apple doesn't fall far from the tree then."

Charlotte jumps when the front door knocks, looking towards Melissa's bedroom door just as she finishes with the woman's hair.

"Do you mind getting that?" Melissa asks, observing her hair with a smile.

"Yeah, sure." Charlotte nods at the woman, quickly leaving the room before she walks downstairs.

She skips down a few steps, a smile smile on her face before she reaches the front door, quickly opening it.

She smiles when she sees Allison, who just looks at the Lynx in shock.

"Charlotte?" Allison asks.

"Yup." She nods, opening the door wider to let her in.

"What are you doing here?" Allison asks in confusion, watching in amusement as the Lynx watches the front door close with a concentrated face.

"I'm helping Melissa get ready for her date." Charlotte replies, her hands connecting on her back.

"Finally agreed to go on a date with you?" Allison asks in amusement.

"Sadly not." Charlotte shakes her head with a sigh, making Allison let out a laugh.

"How come you're here?" Charlotte asks.

"Wanted to come and see Scott." Allison smiles sheepishly.

"Fucking finally. It's about time you two talked." Charlotte sighs in relief, gesturing for the Argent to follow her up the stairs.

"What's that supposed to mean?" Allison asks.

"Well, you two were my favourite couple... didn't like it when you two were fighting." Charlotte shrugs.

"Me and Scott are your favourite couple?" Allison asks in surprise.

"Yeah. Well, it's literally either you and Scott or Lydia and Jackson, so..." Charlotte trails, making Allison nod.

"Fair point." Allison nods.

"Right then, I'll leave you two to it. No sex on his bed." Charlotte tells her, making Allison shake her head to hide her blush.

"All right, mom." Allison smirks, making Charlotte turn to her with purses lips.

"Absolutely not." Charlotte shakes her head, making Allison laugh.

"Go in there." Charlotte chuckles, gesturing to Scott's bedroom door before she walks back into Melissa's room.

"Wow." Charlotte nods as she sees a fully dressed up Melissa.

"Glad you approve." Melissa chuckles, turning to the Lynx.

"Who was at the door?" The adult asks.

"Allison." Charlotte replies, making Melissa smile widely.

"Finally." She sighs.

"That's literally what I said." Charlotte chuckles, making Melissa let out a laugh.

"So, who is this date with? I'm intrigued." Charlotte asks, sitting on Melissa's desk chair.

"You'll find out soon enough." Melissa replies, walking towards the door.

"What's happening?" Charlotte asks, quickly standing up.

"I'm going to show Scott." Melissa replies, making Charlotte nod and follow behind the nurse.
