Chapter One
The six of them, Josephine, Nicole, Aria, Catherine, Spencer, and Rosemary, walked down the hallway talking and gossiping, as usual, nothing really different than normal. It was halfway through their grade nine year and they were all really great friends. Josephine was talking about a show she was watching and the rest of them were listening. Nicole then remembered a song she had heard the night before and she told her friends about it. The song was Play My Music by Connect 3 and she loved it so much that she had downloaded it after she heard it. She played it for all of them and they all agreed that it was a good song. They reached Spencer's locker and she got her books just as the bell rang and they went to their classes.
One Year LaterTurns out Connect 3 was a whole lot better than the group had expected. The girls were a little behind in hearing the music and the song that they heard was from their first album from Columbia Records who had dropped them and now Hollywood Records had signed them. After they listened to Play My Music, they saw the video for it and realized that they were really hot. This started a very large obsession with these boys. Nicole could probably answer any question you asked her about them and the others weren't far behind in the knowledge department. They had called dibs on them too. Nicole got Nate, and Josephine got Shane. They all loved daydreaming about one day meeting them though they knew it would never happen, but they didn't care it was fun. Another fact about these girls was that they were complete bookworms and they found a book that they loved called Twilight. They had read all three books and could not wait for the fourth one to come out in the summer, and again there were dibs called. Aria got Edward. They all also loved to believe that vampires were real just for the fun of it. The "populars" might have thought these girls odd, weird, and strange, but the girls didn't care. In their minds if being odd, weird, and strange meant that their lives were more interesting, then they would take it.
After daydreaming so much about meeting Connect 3 and vampires really existing, their mothers always annoyed them about living in a made up world. So, they decided that it was true and that this world was Delusional-Land. Basically, if they zoned out or dreamed up something that would never happen in a million years they were in Delusional-Land. They would hang out and read stuff about Connect 3 or talk about something they read, heard, or saw about them. They loved having Delusional-Land because it gave them the freedom to just make up whatever they felt like. Nicole was dating Nate, Josephine was dating Shane and Aria was with Edward Cullen. The others in the group just loved talking about it because it was just so much fun. They acted as if all of it was real, just having conversations about "how Nate is doing." or "whether Edward was sick." In their minds it was true. Now don't go thinking that they need to be sent to an asylum. They knew that it wasn't true, but they just liked to act as if it was. It wasn't like the went around saying that they're dating Connect 3; they only talked like that to each other and no one else. That was a rule of Delusional-Land, they're the only ones allowed to go there. Their parents heard and knew about it but they just shook their heads and laughed.
The girls would joke that Edward turned Aria, and then Aria turned the rest of them. So they were all vampires and they loved it. Basing it on Twilight they also gave each other powers, Nicole had mind control, Josephine was telepathic, Catherine had the "death glare", Rosemary was telekinetic, Spencer was psychic, and Aria could imitate/block powers . They loved having this place where nothing mattered and they could have and do whatever they wanted.
