    Deja vu and the Clones

    Chapter Five

    Something Needs To Be Done

    Annie and Mattie were up before seven the next morning. Gabrielle was already up and was sitting at the kitchen table, her elbows were on the table supporting her head. She looked up when she heard them.

    "I see Xena never made it to bed," Annie said as she pointed with her head at Xena asleep on the sofa. Empty beer cans were scattered on the coffee table and on the floor.

    "No," Gabrielle replied. "I tried to get her to come to bed after Harry turned in, but she said she wasn't sleepy. Then I got up twice more during the night but she was asleep and too heavy for me."  Mattie was silent for a few seconds then said in a pleading voice, "Isn't there something you can do? She can't go on like this. I  can't go on like this. I love Xena with all my heart, but she's making it harder and harder every day for me not to leave her. She's getting worse and worse all the time."

    Gabrielle wiped away a tear. "No, that's a lie. I could never leave Xena. It would tear out my heart to do that."

    Mattie put a comforting hand on Gabrielle's shoulder. "I know how you feel," she said and glanced over to Annie for a second or two. "But we'll figure something out."

    Gabrielle smiled up at her.

    "In the mean time, how about some breakfast? A real breakfast?" Annie asked. "We usually have Harry bring coffee and donuts to the office, but today's Thursday, and almost nothing happens on Thursday."

    "Sure, that sounds good."

    "Anything in particular?"

    "It doesn't matter. I'll eat whatever you fix."

    "I'll get Harry up," Mattie volunteered. "You want to wake up Xena?"

    "Maybe we should let her sleep a little longer," Annie suggested. "It'll give us some time to throw around a few ideas."

    Mattie nodded, then left to wake Harry.

    An hour later they were finished with breakfast and were still at the kitchen table, drinking the last of the coffee. Gabrielle had been going over, again, everything she remembered that had happened to her and Xena since they were cloned. Xena was still snoring on the living room couch.
