Parent Trap Part 1

What it says on the tin.

Parent trap with Vampire-Slayer and Slayer-Vampire twins.

So, Adelina arrives at her father's house...to finally meet him! *dramatic music*

-------

Adelina swallowed sharply, preparing to meet her father.

After so many years, she was finally going to meet him.

She just hoped she could keep up the pretense.

I am Adriana...I am Adriana... She thought to herself, over and over, summoning the courage to ring the bell.

Now all she had to do was wait for her father to answer the door...

Armando was reading the paper when he heard the bell ring. He pull it aside and approached the door. He looked through the peephole and was surprised to find his daughter on the other side.

"Adriana, what happened to your keys?" He asked as he opened the door.

"Uh...I...Um...I forgot them..." Adelina muttered, studying her father carefully.

Adriana. She just had to pretend to be Adriana...No one would know...She could do this. She just had to keep calm.

"Well alright, come on in then." Armando ushered his daughter in. He looked at her thoughtfully.

Adelina wiped her feet quickly on the door mat, shutting the door behind her.

She blinked at the thoughtful look. Was her cover blown already?!

"What's that look for?" She raised an eyebrow. "Have I got something on my face?"

"No," Armando said smiling, "You just -" Remind me of your mother.

"You're just growing up so fast I just wanted to make sure to take a mental picture."

Adelina laughed. Might want to put it in the correct mental photo album...

"S'Alright Dad, I'm still your little girl really." She grinned, though inside she wanted him to know it was Adelina, not Adriana. But she had to keep up the act.

"So my little girl huh?" Armando said grinning. "What did you do today?"

Adelina shrugged. "Nothing much." Other than meeting my estranged father...

"What did you do today?"

"Nothing much either," Armando said smiling. "Hey I was wondering if you can help me finish making dinner."

"Sure..." Adelina smiled. "Whats the occasion?"

"Just dinner," Armando said mysteriously, heading to the kitchen.

Adelina shrugged. "Alright...What is it?"

"Roast beef and mashed potatoes... well that's if I can get the potatoes done..." Armando called out.

Adelina stood next to her father and began to mash up some of the potatoes.

It was strange to be in a kitchen that contained no bottles of blood...though Calista only drank the bare minimum to stay alive. Meals including blood were a common thing at home, Adelina thought, wondering how different it would be to have a normal, human dinner.

"The beef is almost done," Armando informed her, while peaking in the oven.

"Cool." Adelina finished mashing up the potatoes and glanced around for a spoon to place them on plates.

Armando started whistling a small tune. "Adriana, I wanted to talk to you about something..."

Adelina took a moment to react, and cursed her slow reactions. She was Adriana...Adriana...not Adelina. Adriana.

"What Dad?" She was tempted to call him Daddy, but that was just too childish.

But before Armando could answer her the door bell rang, "Oh can you get that?" Armando called out from under the oven.

"...Sure..." Adelina approached the door and opened it slowly, suddenly suspicious...

"Hello there!" Said an overly exaggerated voice, "You must be Adriana!"

Adelina blinked. "...Yeah...I am...Dad?" She called over one shoulder.

"Tina!" Armando said coming behind Adelina. "You're early."

"Of course dear, I couldn't wait a minute longer." Tina, a slender dark-haired woman stepped inside. "You're daughter and I were just being aquatinted."

Adelina cautiously shut the door behind 'Tina'.

She had a bad feeling about this...
