The Unknown DiLaurentis

Courtney

My mother lived up to her word and the two of us went phone shopping. In the end, I had gotten a new iPhone 5c. I got the phone in blue because I had been obsessed with the color blue since I was little. My mother and I actually bonded during out time together. Although I knew Ali was going to be pissed because we went shopping without her while she was still at school. When bonding together we talked about Alison and Courtney. From what she told me, you're lucky if you were able to get the two together in the same room without them killing each other. My mother had asked me if wanting to seeing Courtney with just my parents, was because Alison had something to do with it. Of course I lied to her, Ali's threat never left my mind.

Right now I was packing a small bag for the trip to see Courtney and hanging up some of my clothes from shopping today. When my door opened revealing Alison, and she came in uninvited. She closed the door behind her and went to sat down in the only chair in my room.

"So what's my little sister been doing today?" She asked me. I rolled my eyes and went into my closet and hanged up my new dress. Since after mom and I went shopping we cleaned out this room and put most of the boxes in the attic. When I went back into my room I saw Alison touching my new phone. She held it in front of me, "Who got you this?"

"Mom got it for me." I mumbled.

She tilted her head, "When?" I didn't answer. She smirked, "Let me guess mom got it for you when you went shopping without me today. That's not very nice, Chloe. "

I sighed, "Can you leave Ali please? Mom said I had to get up early tomorrow to get to visiting hours on time to see Courtney. Plus I have to put all my clothes up."

She rolled her eyes, "Right, your seeing the devil tomorrow. Tell Court I said hi." She answered sarcastically. She put down my phone and left my room, except she left the door open. I sighed and went over to the door and closed it. Obviously my definition of the devil is different from hers.

"Chloe! You need to get up if you want to met Courtney!" I heard my mother scream over my head. I groaned and sat up, and glanced over at my clock. It said 7 o'clock. "You need to hurry we are already late." My mother told me as she raced out of my room. I quickly jumped out of the bed and went over to the dresser. I grabbed a pair of sweatpants and jumped into them. I went over to my closet and grabbed a light blue tank top. Finally I went into the bathroom and brush out my hair and brushed my teeth. Once I was dress and ready, I grabbed my phone.

I ran into the kitchen and saw Alison on her phone, of course. She looked up at me, "Mom is still getting ready. Better hope that Courtney doesn't take your spot, that's what happened to me."

I shook my head, "From what I remember it was you, Alison. Courtney just happened to be in your way." I snapped.

Alison just stared at me and gave me the death look. Lucky my mother came down the stairs followed by my father. "Ali, if we're not back by tonight. Stay at a friends house, I do not want you here by yourself and have a party." my father told her.

Alison rolled her eyes, "Whatever." She glared at me, "Have fun Chloe." She told me as she went upstairs.

All three of us, exited the house and we all piled into my mom's car. My father started the car and drove off. While I got comfortable in the back seat and fell back to sleep.

I felt someone shaking me waking me up from my beauty sleep. "Come on Chloe were here." I heard someone yelled. Well not yell. More like exclaimed. I groaned before sitting up. I gasp at what I saw. It looked like a hunted hospital, except the letters RS stood out on a gate. Radley Sanitarium. Now I feared for my older sister. My father parked the car in front of the scary mental hospital. Both of my parents got out of the car and I quickly followed. Once we entered the hospital, I saw patients dressed in ugly gray sweats with no strings. My parents and I had to pass a highly locked gate to get to the front desk. Now I kinda wished I stayed home.

My parents stopped in front of the front desk. Behind the desk was a older woman late 60's maybe, with gray hair. "We're here to see Courtney DiLaurentis." I heard my mother tell the woman. The lady nodded and started to type on her computer.

She then handed us little name tags, each with the name DiLaurentis on them. The lady nodded to the next room, "She's in there." Rude much?

I heard the next gate unlock as my parents went through the door. Butterflies were now all in my stomach. What if she hates me? My mother looked back at me and smiled, "No need to be nervous, Chloe. Courtney will love you." She told me as she held an arm out. I quickly went over to her and she placed her arm along my shoulders as we walked through the gate.

Right away I could spot Courtney. She was in the corner playing on the old piano, and I must say she was pretty good. From what I could see of her back of her head, she looked a lot like Alison. Except her hair was darker then Ali's and mine, but that's all I could see.

I felt my mother give me a little push, "Go on, she already knows us. Go sit with her." I nodded and left my parents and went over to her. I went over to the side of the bench that had a more space and sat down.

Courtney looked up at me in shock, "Oh my god, it's really you!" she exclaimed as she pulled me into a hug. She sounded just like Ali, but she was different. She was nicer. She was the first to pull away, and I got to take in her details more clearly. Her blue eyes were lighter then Alison's, and her face was a little smaller than Alison's. It was all the little details that made her different from Ali, but if you were to look far away you would never be able to tell the difference.

I heard my mother chuckle as she came over to us, "See Chloe, no need to worry. Anyways, Courtney met Chloe. Chloe, Courtney." I looked around and saw my father no where in sight. Whatever.

I looked between my sister and mother, "Wait, Courtney you know?" I lowered my voice. "That we're sister?"

She chuckled and nodded, "Yeah, mom and dad came last week and told me about you. I was the first they told. Anyways, aren't Alison and Jason suppose to be here?" she asked our mother.

"They were but Chloe decided she wanted to see you by herself. You don't mind do you?"

Courtney shook her head, "No, anyways it means I can hang out with my sister by myself."

My mother chuckled and she came over to me and kissed my forehead, "You two have fun, your father and I are going to met up with your doctors, Court."

Once my mother was out of sight, Courtney turned and faced me, "Ali threaten you didn't she?"

I nodded, "Is it that noticeable?" I asked.

Courtney shook her head, "No but I know my sister and she hates seeing me. She rather go to the school then see me." Courtney got up from the piano bench. "Come on, I bet I could beat your ass in Uno."

"Oh your on."
