Anything You Can Do, I Can Do Better

Dinners and Dads

Rikki

Okay so maybe I've underestimated Bianca's stubbornness, I mean she moved my suitcases into the spare bedroom. I might've underestimated her rage as well, as soon as she saw Penny sitting beside Bee went into the kitchen and I meant be mistaking but I think she was looking for a knife.

When CC and Bianca left with Robyn to go get wine it freaked me out a bit because she is pregnant but Ana and Ashley took time to tell me how stupid I was acting and how much it actually hurt Bee.

I've been pretty stupid today, I mean all I've managed to do is piss off Bianca. I feel like shit and I can see it in her eyes how horrible she feels, how heartbroken Bee feels. Then that whole shit with her soon to be step sister...Christ, I'm an idiot.

We're all sitting around the dinner table and Bee has placed Robyn between the two of us. I forgot about the whole praying before eating thing so I got stuck with grace. It was good in a way because when their mother told me I had grace I swear I saw Bianca smile.

In all honesty it doesn't take all that long for arguments to start. It starts with their mother making some comment about mine and Bianca's marriage.

"Well at least I told you two that I was getting married, unlike some people." She started. "Speaking of which, how was the Vegas wedding, Bianca?"

"It was great, thanks for asking." Bianca said simply. "At least I'm not getting married just after my husband died."

"At least I didn't get pregnant out of wedlock, Bruce." Their mother says.

"I'm not dating someone five years younger than me, mother." CC retaliated.

"Okay. Let's just eat." Ana says and I sigh.

Thank god.

We eat for a little while in absolute silence then it turns on CC and I.

"Maybe you two could answer this for me." Coach says. "Why do you two wear more makeup than any girls I've ever seen? I mean you're clearly straight, I mean you're dating my Bumblebee."

Bee stops eating and he eyes grow. Bumblebee was her father's nickname for her and no one else is aloud to call her that. It pisses me off when someone calls her that because it pisses her off.

"Look, don't call her that." I say and everyone looks over to me.

Bianca smiles at me before looking back at her plate. CC smiles and nods.

"How about you stop talking about my husband and my twin and eat your fucking pot roast, Morgan." Bianca states and I smile.

There's my girl.

Bianca

I have no idea what time it is when I drove out to the cemetery. I could take this being alone in my room with my thoughts it was driving me insane. So going to the cemetery that seems like a good idea at night.

I walk through the cemetery and I pull my jacket tighter around me. I jam my fists in my pockets as I walk. I get to where my father is buried but I see someone there.

"Look Dad, I love her. She's my girl and I wish you could've met her. Ashley is everything that's good in the world and I'm gonna marry her. We're going to have a baby together, dad." My twin's voice says and I smile. "Do me a favour and see if you can get God to strike down Rockett or at least knock some sense into him. Him and Bee are having some problems with Bee being pregnant. I'm really scared they won't pull through this one and they need each other. Okay, I love you. I'm sorry it's been a while but I think about you everyday."

CC turns around and sees me.

"Jesus Christ! How long have you been standing there?" He wonders and I smile.

"Not that long." I lie and he smiles.

"Why are you out here? I think it's past pregnant broad's bedtime." CC says and I roll my eyes.

"I think it's past ugly broad's bedtime as well." I say and he laughs.

I walk up beside CC and look at the headstone.

"Hey daddy, it's been a while." I say. "I miss you like crazy. I'm sorry about getting married in Vegas but I-I love Rikki, even though he's putting me through hell right now. I'm sorry about getting pregnant and I'm sorry about fighting at your house. We're human and we can't be prefect all the time."

"Bee, don't do that to yourself." CC says. "Come on, let's go home."

My twin grabs my hand and pulls me back towards our house. When we get there I go to sit on the couch and CC flops down beside me.

"Remember when we were kids how we used to seat out of our rooms to watch the Yankees games?" I ask and he smiles.

"Yeah, I also remember ma catching us." He says. "Bianca you have to talk about this at some point."

"Talk about what?" I ask and he sighs.

"Rikki." CC says and I shake my head.

"There's nothing to talk about." I state and look at the tv. "I think the Yanks are in Chicago tonight."

I go and flip on the tv and turn it to the Yankees game. I sit back on the couch beside my brother and we watch the game. It's like we're kids again. At about the sixth inning CC turns to me.

"Hey twin?" CC says.

"Yeah." I answer.

"How are you feeling?" He asks and I frown.

"Pissed off." I admit.

"At?"

"Rikki, Penny, mom...myself." I admit.

"Why yourself?" CC wonders.

"Maybe it's my fault I got pregnant." I say and he looks at me. "I mean it's how I feel at least."

"Why would any of this be your fault? I mean unless I misunderstood that video in health class Rikki did this to you, not the other way around." He says.

"I know but we could've been more carful or.." I trail off because at this point I'm crying.
"I hate crying so much! I swear I've never cried or puked so much in my fucking life!"

"Hey, come here. No more tears, okay Bee?" CC ask and he hugs me into his side. "It's not your fault okay?"

"Okay." I agree and he kisses my hair.

"What do you want to have? Twins?" He asks with a laugh.

"I don't know and don't joke about it. We're twins so there's always a chance that both Ashley and I could be carrying twins." I say and he groans. "You sleeping?"

CC snores in response and I laugh.

"G'night CC." I say and go to stand but CC's hug has turned into a headlock and I can't move.

Guess I'm sleeping here tonight. Thanks twin.
