Elizabeth and Emily were setting in her her living room, looking through fashion magazines for a idea for a dress for Emily to wear in Juan’s new video. Even though Juan and Emily broke up they were still friends. The video belonged to the song Juan and converted into a song and insisted that Emily be in it.

"You are so lucky Em. Your face is going to be on every television screen in America," Elizabeth brightly smiled. "How do you like that?"

"I’m can’t believe it myself. Especially when Juan called me and asked."

"How did Zander take it?"

"He’s not happy, but he knows this is something I want to do and he couldn’t stop me from doing it. He still thinks Juan’s trying to get me back."

"Well he is," Elizabeth closed the book. "Everyone knows that Juan’s still in love with you."

"Et tu Elizabeth?"

"I just speak the truth," Elizabeth shrugged picking up a letter that had come for her that morning. Opening it, her eyes widened. "Oh my God."

"What?"

"Sarah’s coming back to PC. She wants to know if she can stay here since Gram sold the house and moved into a smaller place."

"So what’s the problem?"

"Everything that’s going on for one. Plus she’s still in love with Nikolas."

"What? After all this time? I would think she’d moved on by now."

"I thought she would have to but she hasn’t. Wait until she meets Gia. She’s not going to be happy."

"Hey anyone home!" Lucky’s voice spilled into the room. Soon he appeared with Zander, Nikolas and Gia right behind him. "There you are. What are you girls up to?"

"Looking for Em’s outfit to wear in the video," Elizabeth explained, kissing her husband. "Have a good day?"

"It was ok."

"I’ve got a letter from my sister. She’s wanting to come stay with us. She’ll be here in a couple of days," Elizabeth looked at Nikolas, gageing his reaction.

"How is Sarah?" Nikolas asked, his face and eyes void of emotion.

"She’s doing good. She just wants to be close to family and friends."

"Who’s Sarah?" Gia asked, taking a seat on the couch.

"My oh so perfect sister," Elizabeth rolled her eyes.

"Elizabeth…" Lucky warned. Even though Elizabeth and Sarah get along better than they did when they first came to Port Charles, Elizabeth still felt pretty inferior to her big sister, especially after the rape.

"What?" Elizabeth looked at Lucky as if she didn’t realize how sarcastic she was being, but of course she did.

"You’re twice as perfect as she is," Lucky smiled sweetly. "Now stop being sarcastic and let’s get the guest room ready."

"I remember Sarah. I remember how clingy she was to Nikolas," Emily nodded.

"What? Why would Elizabeth’s sister be clingy to Nikolas?" Gia frowned.

"They used to date," Elizabeth explained. "She went as far as to hit on Lucky when Nikolas finally kicked her to the curb."

"You used to date Liz’s sister?"

"Hey I was young and my taste in women wasn’t fully developed yet," Nikolas shrugged.

"Hey! That’s my sister you’re talking about! I may rib on her, but that’s because we’re related and it’s allowed," Elizabeth threw a sharp look towards Nikolas.

"Sorry," Nikolas shrugged. "So Sarah’s staying here?"

Elizabeth nodded. "I can’t exactly say no. She is my sister."

"Of course," Emily nodded.

"Does anyone want a pizza?" Lucky asked, getting hungry and getting tired of talking about Elizabeth’s boring sister.

"Sure. Donatoes would be great," Gia too was ready to change the subject.

Helena Cassadine stood on the docks smiling in satisfaction as she spoke on her cellphone. "Oh you will. That’s perfect. Remember keep close watch on those two and report to me as soon as you hit town. And remember not a word about your connection to me to anyone. We can’t afford any mistakes."

Hanging up the phone, she turned around to face Tom who had just arrived. "You have gained a co-worker Mr. Baker. She too is very close to Elizabeth Spencer and can work from the inside. She will be arriving within the next two days."

"Should I be threatened by this new arrival?" Tom crossed his arms.

"No. Not at all. Your status is quite secured. Just keep up the great job you’re doing and soon we all will have what we want," Helena grinned.
