Chapter 1

*Maddie's POV*

I was sitting on my bed, finishing math homework when I heard Liv's phone go off. It had been a few weeks since the Senior Scare, and word had been, that there was going to be a national basketball championship for both boys and girls Varsity teams. It hadn't been confirmed yet, but, since our team was state champion of Wisconsin, it would mean that we would be the team representing Wisconsin at the national tournament. Also, I hadn't been speaking with Diggie lately because of our recent breakup. Since I'd moved on after the 'Diggie cleansing cermony' Mom and I had, it would just be too painful to talk to him again. That's why I was surprised when I looked at Liv's phone and saw that the text she had recieved was from Diggie. It was a smiley emoji. I tapped it and went back through their texts. The conversation that Liv had started last night. I didn't have to worry about Liv coming in and catching me reading her texts, because she was out filming an episode of Voltage.

I read the first text from Liv. "I'm gonna tell u something, don't tell anyone I told u this, especially not Maddie." Oh, that made me feel good! Then Diggie said, "Don't worry I won't." After that I saw that Liv had deleted the text that had said the thing I was supposed to know. Oh, great now I won't even know what I wasn't supposed to know! After that, Diggie said, "Really! That's adorable!" I was a little suspicious after that. But what really turned me off from the whole thing was the next text. Liv wrote back, "Aww, ur so cute!". That was it! My own twin sister and my ex-boyfriend were flirting with each other! That's when Diggie had sent the emoji anyway, so there was nothing else to read. I turned off Liv's phone and slapped it back down where I'd found it. I couldn't believe her. I went back to doing my homework, but couldn't concentrate because what I'd just read.

*Ally's POV*

"Hey, Austin, look at this!" I said, going over to where my boyfriend sat. It was late afternoon and the students were just leaving the music factory. Austin was sitting on the couch on his phone, but looked up when I came over with my tablet. He read the page I was reading.

"National Basketball Championship to be held in Marino High, Miami, FL," he read the headline. Looking up, he added, "That's great, I guess we were one of the only schools that got state champions for both the boys and girls teams."

"We should see one of the games," I suggested.

"Well, I'm going to be playing with the boys team, so we should see one of the girl's games." Austin said.

"How about this one," I suggested, pointing to one of the games on the schedule. "Wisconsin is playing Miami this Sunday, so the music factory will be closed."

"Good idea," Austin said. "Also, it looks like I don't have to play on this day either."

"No, it doesn't look like it," I said.

"So it's a date," Austin said.

"I guess it is," I agreed, before leaning down and kissing him.

*Liv's POV*

We were about mid-way through filming the first season of 'Voltage' when I got a text from Dad saying we were spending next week in Miami. He seemed really excited because the text was in all caps and there were about twenty six exclamation points. I had to tell Gemma that we're going to have to put off filming for another week because of our sudden trip to the south. She didn't mind too much but she put her face up against mine and made it very clear that we have to work really hard when I get back so we can get back on schedule.

When I got home, Dad was freaking out about the basketball championship in Miami. So I guess that's why we're going! I thought Mom and Dad had finally decided it was time for us to take a family vacation! But, no! This was all about, *sigh*, basketball!

The weird part about it, though, is that Maddie seemed really excited about it, unless I talked to her, or she looked at me. I don't understand, is she mad at me? What about?

*Dez's POV*

Austin told me that he and Ally are going to the Basketball tournament. I decided to get the Glee Club back together. So far Miles and Sun Hee have agreed. At least I think they did. I couldn't hear Miles and I don't speak Korean. Either way, the Glee Club is going to be fantastic! Also I asked coach if he was in on it and he said, "No, and why are you still in my life?" but I know deep down he actually really likes me and wants to do it! This is going to be the best tournament ever!
