(AN: I totally got this story idea from Big Brother. I don't own Big Brother, by the way, so don't sue.)
Chapter 1
"Maxwell, Nanny Fine, what is going on!?" CC yelled, as two large men grabbed her by her arms, and were blabbering about some show called 'Not Us'.
"Yes, I would like to know also." Niles added, as two other men did the same to him.
"Niles, Miss Babcock," Fran began, "We're really sorry, but we have to do this."
Maxwell jumped in, "We aren't doing this for fun, we're doing it because we care about you both."
Before CC or Niles could say any more, a tall, skinny woman with long brown hair waled in through the front door and came into Niles and CCs view. She had on a dress, and was holding a microphone with a cameraman following her.
"Hello." The woman told Niles and CC, "My name is Anna Godsend. I'm the host of a new T.V. show called 'Not Us!' Your friends, here, sent in your story when they heard about our show. That's where we're taking you. To our T.V. show set."
"What!?" Niles and CC exclaimed.
Anna nodded, "Yes. You'll have exactly 15 minutes to pack only valuables, and then we'll be off. You have brand-new clothes waiting for you at the set. The set is really a house, where you'll be locked up for 6 months, with 9 other couples."
"We are not a couple!" CC told Anna, glaring.
Anna smiled. "We know. That's the point of our show. The show's called 'Not Us!' for a reason. It's for two people who just can't seem to get together, even though everyone around them believes they belong together. Come on, now, say your goodbyes, and pack your things. We don't have long. Any questions can be asked at the house after everything else is explained. We just need you to sign these forms." Anna held out two clipboards with a large stack of paper on them.
"There is no way....." Niles began to refuse until Anna interrupted.
"-You could win 500,00 dollars."
"......I am passing this up!" Niles finished, and signed the papers.
"No way! I will absolutely, positively not-"
"-We'll promote Sheffield-Babcock Productions." Anna offered CC, and CCs reaction was close to that of Niles.
CC and Niles along with their bags, sat down on the big, round couch with nine other couples.
Then, Anna came on the big screen TV in front of them. "Hello. As you all already know, I'm Anna Godsend. And you're all on 'Not Us!' a reality show where friends become girlfriends, and guys become boyfriends. Now, before I start to explain the rules, there are 10 rooms in the house. Each bedroom door has the two names of the 'couple' on it. When I say, go and find your room. Inside your rooms, there will be a poster. The poster has been filled out by the person or persons who sent your story into us. After getting to your room, and locating your poster, you will have 30 minutes to unpack, check out your rooms, and read your poster. Then, you must all meet back down here, with your posters for the rules to be explained."
Anna paused to let the information sink in. "Are we all understood?"
All 10 couples nodded.
"Good," Anna told them, "Because it's time to find your rooms!"
All ten couples ran off, in search of their rooms. Niles grabbed both his and CCs bags, and grabbed onto her hand. It didn't take them long to find their room. It clearly read: Niles and CC on the door. The blue of their names gave away the inside of the room.
Inside, there was a big, Queen-sized bed, with a white and blue striped comforter, and white pillows trimmed in blue on it. It was four poster, white, and looked amazingly comfy. To the right of the white door was the light switch, and to the left was a tall white dresser, full of clothes. Then, on the wall to the left of the bed was a white armoire, and next to that was a blue door that lead to the bathroom. On the right side of the bed was a huge, long closet, and when CC opened it, was also full of clothes. On each side of the bed was a blue nightstand, each with an alarm clock on it. Their poster, was laying on the bed.
CC ran over to it. "Here it is." She told, Niles, getting ready to open it up.
Niles dropped the bags, and walked over to sit next to her. They began to read the story Max and Fran wrote.
