Prologue:
"Mom! Wake up, you've got to take me and Patrick to school" A young girl said as she shook her mother awake. Jade West rolled over in her sleep and groaned.
"Do I have to?" She asked.
"Yes, I don't want to be late… the big field hockey game is today" Jennifer said whilst still trying to shake her mother awake. Jade shot up.
"Sorry, Jennifer… Is your brother awake?" Jade asked as she stepped out of bed.
"No, but I made waffles" Jennifer smiled a sweet smile.
"Okay, honey. I'll be ready in a minute" Jade told her daughter before rushing to the bedroom next door to wake up her thirteen year old son Patrick.
"Come on Patrick, it's time for school" Jade called. Her son mimicked her previous motions and just groaned.
"I don't want to go to school mom; can't I just pull a sicky?" He complained. As she drew his curtains causing the light to come in the room, Jade laughed at her son. He was like her in so many ways it warmed her heart.
"No… Get up!" Jade demanded. The raise of the now 38 year Old's voice was enough to wake him up Jade left the room so that they could both get ready for their equally busy days.
Downstairs Jennifer West was reading a gossip magazine and drinking a glass of orange juice. Jennifer was fifteen years old and went to an expensive high school in Hollywood called; Stormer High. It was in their area and since it had opened a few years ago had very high achievement rates.
"Ooh, thanks sweetie" Jade said noticing the coffee had been poured for her and that her eldest daughter had made each of them breakfast.
"No problem mom, I love cooking" Jennifer gushed.
"What did I do to deserve a daughter as great as you?" Jade asked hugging her daughter. Moments later her youngest child walked in wearing his shirt on back to front.
"Come here you!" Jade said sorting his shirt out then ruffling his brown hair. You could tell straight from looking at Patrick West that he was his mother's son. He had the same pale skin and the same emerald eyes. They were alike in many other ways too. He wasn't a morning person like she wasn't; even when he was a baby he would sleep through most of the morning keeping his mother awake all night. Jade's daughter Jennifer didn't resemble her very much. Although both of them had brunette hair Jennifer's was a much lighter shade. Jennifer had big brown eyes and was very tall.
The drive up to the high school was very active. Jade liked to have music playing loudly in her car and she and Jennifer would sing along in the front seats. Patrick liked to do his own thing though so he usually would keep himself to himself.
"Here we are kiddo's" Jade said as they pulled up outside the school.
"Good luck at your game tonight, Jenn and Patrick be good!" Jade said to her children before waving them off and driving off to work.
That same morning:
"Alex, wake up or you'll be late" Tori said banging on her fifteen year old daughter's bedroom door. Tori heard a cushion being thrown at the door.
"You have ten minutes Alex Vega!" Tori warned her daughter before heading downstairs to make pancakes for breakfast. Ten minutes later Alex arrived down stairs wearing a pair of skinny jeans and a T-shirt with a bands name scrawled across the front.
"Mm, pancakes. Thanks Mommy" Alex said digging in.
"Since when do you call me mommy?" Tori teased her only daughter. She and Alex had the kind of special bond Tori had always wanted to have with her daughter. Alex had beautiful long brunette hair and sweet green eyes. Her skin was extremely pale which had always worried Tori when she was growing up. She'd thought for a while that she'd not been feeding her enough milk or giving her the right nutrients but a talk with her mother soon put her straight and Tori stopped worrying. Tori had fell pregnant at the age of twenty three and had been doing the whole mom thing by herself as Alex' father wasn't around.
"Have you got anything special going on at school today?" Tori asked her daughter.
"Umm, yeah… I've got a science fair. It's going to be awesome" Alex explained. Tori smiled. Alex loved science and she was a straight A student in all of her classes even though she could be little bit rebellious sometimes Alex Vega always found a way to study.
"What's your experiment?" Tori asked. Alex froze and stared at her plate.
"You can tell me" Tori reassured her.
"It's a DNA experiment" Alex replied. Tori lifted her eyebrows in confusion.
"Mom don't get mad but I did some snooping and I found three possible matches for my biological father and I got DNA from all of them" Alex admitted, Tori gave her daughter a warning look.
"Please mom, let me do this… I think I can win" Alex persuaded her.
"How did you get their DNA?" Tori questioned.
"You don't want to know mom" Alex said. Tori decided to drop it for now and carried on with their usual morning routine.
Alex looked over her experiment in confusion after testing each piece of DNA from her three possible fathers. None of them were a match, which was odd. Alex was sure that at least one of these men had to be her real dad.
"Hey, A" Tori said as she arrived at her daughters test station at school after a hard day in the music studio.
"Mom. Who's my real dad?" Alex asked.
"Don't you know that already, honey?" Tori asked looking over her daughters work. All three of them said they were not her father.
"He's supposed to be your dad" Tori told the teenager handing her a photo of one of the men. Ryan Adams.
"Mom… was I adopted?" Alex asked, her green eyes filling up with tears.
"Of course not honey, I have the stretch marks to prove it" Tori reassured her giving her a big bear hug. Alex took out her testing stuff and pulled out a strand of Tori's hair.
"What are you doing A?" Tori wondered, holding her head where she'd pulled the hair out.
"The results should be back any minute" Alex said waiting and watching carefully,
Both of them stared blankly at the results;
"These two are not biologically related".
"But…" Tori said reading the results in confusion.
They went to see a genetic counselor who confirmed the results from Alex's science experiment that she had ironically earned an A for.
"I'm sorry you are not the biological mother of Alex Vega" The genetic counselor told Tori during their meeting.
"It appears there had been some sort of mistake at the hospital and your baby was switched at birth" The lady explained.
"Do you have any idea who my real parents are?" Alex asked. Since they'd found out the fifteen year old had been very sad and distant and had barely come out of her room.
"Yes, and we use the word biological not real" The lady told her.
Two weeks later they were back in that same office when the other family walked in.
"Alex this is Jennifer" The counselor introduced the two and before she could introduce the mothers they had already recognized each other.
"Jade?" Tori wondered.
"Tori?" Jade asked.
