DISCLAIMER: If I owned this, I'd force ABC Family to renew another season and get rid of the garbage they replaced it with. And if I ever won the lottery, I'd buy ABC Family and demand they renew this epic TV show. So here's back to last summer with this story.

Summary: What if Michelle and Hubbell were the same age? What if someone accompanied them to Paradise?

"Hi, Daddy, yes, I just got off the plane to see Mom. Yes, I do think that's a good plan, but do you seriously think she'll actually accept this time? Come on, it's been 21 years. No, I won't tell her. Yah, school was great. I can't wait for next year." Beth Sims hit the end button on her cell phone as Michelle greeted her at the terminal.

"Got all your stuff, kid?"

" Some of it's in storage for next year, and the other stuff's at Grandma and Grandpa's. Oh, luggage wise, duh!"

"So, who were you talking to?"

" No one. Just a friend back home. Hey, has Dad come this way lately?" She asked.

"Once every month. You start a relationship with a guy, you end up having a kid, and he starts stalking you every month."

"It's not that bad. I've been known to do that in the past myself. Not the get pregnant part, but stalking someone of the other gender."

They arrived in the apartment.

"The AC's still not working, and yes, that thing's still in the breakfast bar."

"TMI, Mom!"

"So, are you planning on seeing the show tonight?"

"Wouldn't miss it." I'll be sitting next to Dad.
