Hi my name is Veronica Kane and I have a very interesting life if you ask me. I have a sister and a brother and I go to Neptune High School. I have lived in Neptune all of my life and I love it, most of the time. Sometimes it gets a little to dramatic for me I guess.

My mom is Lianne Henderson and my dad is Jake Kane. My mom and my dad were high school sweethearts and engaged to be married. Then two months after getting engaged my dad made a mistake and slept with a stripper named Celeste.

And then when he found out Celeste was pregnant with his baby he called the wedding off with my mom. It's not that he wanted to marry Celeste it's that he knew their baby needed a dad and that wouldn't happen if he was married to my mom.

So my dad was going to marry Celeste just for the baby when he found out that my mom was also pregnant with his child. If you ask me that makes it a tad but more complicated when you have two women pregnant with your babies.

So Dad decided to marry my mom because it was her that he loved and not Celeste. Well Celeste gave birth to a baby girl she name Lilly who my Dad immediately fought for custody of and won leaving Celeste to go back to her stripping to find another rich man to seduce.

Two months after Lilly was born my mom had twins, me and my brother Duncan. Growing up everyone was always wierded out by the fact that the three of us were all only two months apart. But hey, that's what happens in Neptune with the whole love/sex triangle thing and the three of us were best friends so we absolutely loved it.

So yeah that is what brings me to today, my first day of high school in Neptune. Freshman year baby and I have my brother and sister by my side. With Lilly here there is no way that anyone will ever forget the Kane name. And even if I may only have a small part in getting our name remembered, at least I'm a Kane.

Neptune High Lunch Area

As I walked out the double doors to lunch I could only smile at the fact that my sister had already claimed what seemed to be the best table in the whole lunch area. In fact it was the only table in the sun and of course Lilly had to sit there to work on her tan.

I walked over to where Lilly was sitting and was followed shortly by Duncan who claimed the seat right across from me. We were the only three at the table to start with but then a big group of rich-looking kids started heading our way.

The girl leading the gang looked like a Barbie doll and as she scrunched her face up in what I bet she thought of as a mean glare I couldn't help but laugh. She of course heard me laugh and I automatically became her first target.

"Who do you think you are sitting at my table and laughing at me like you own the world? I will have you know that my dad owns an entire airline and I am sure your dad is nothing more then a garbage man." The girl tossed snidely at me as she eyed Duncan, Lilly, and I. "Who are you three anyway are you like related or something," she continued, "Because you seriou-"

I'd had enough of the girl at this point so I decided it was time for someone to put her in her place and since Duncan was too quiet too and I knew that Lilly's words would end in a huge cat fight and we didn't need that on the very first day of school. So I decided to be the one to stand up to Barbie here.

"Look I don't know who you think you are because I sure as hell know your dad does not make as much as our dad or otherwise maybe your nose job and botox wouldn't be so easy to detect. And plus the whole looking like Trampy Barbie kind of went out last season. Our dad is Jake Kane and I believe he pretty much owns this town but who's counting money anyway. Except wait doesn't your dad run Hannigan Airlines?"

At the girl's snobby nod of her head I continued. "Oh so that's the airline that went bankrupt and my dad bought it. They have nice planes. And yeah we are related. This is my sister Lilly and my brother Duncan and you better watch out because I am pretty sure the fall from your throne of power here is going to hurt."

With that final blow I finally looked behind her at the people standing there staring at me. Some looked in awe while some of the others looked about to kill me. Then I noticed him and I swear my heart stopped beating completely.

He had light brown hair and deep brown eyes and was smirking at me. He stepped around the girl that I had just put in her place and sat down next to me.

"Hey I'm Logan. Logan Echolls actually and I thought what you just did was pretty stinking hot. What's your name anyway?"

With a smile I put all the tricks Lilly taught me to use and batted my eyelashes and leaned slightly towards him and whispered "Veronica."

He seemed surprised by my flirtatiousness but he seemed to enjoy it. The girl I had just finished telling off on the other hand was not happy, not at all.

"Come on Logan. We'll find another table. Don't want to sit with trash." When Logan just kept looking at me and didn't immediately follow her she went from irritated to furious in a matter of seconds.

"Logan. We are leaving, now. If you don't come you and the school slut will definitely be sorry." With her last words Logan turned and glared at her and looked like he would've punched her had she been a guy.

"Shut up Christy. You know as well as I do that I have more power then you do and if I sit here then this becomes the cool table and where you sit will definitely be the trash table. We all know how many guys you've slept with Christy so I am pretty sure you out beat anyone else when it comes to being the school slut."

Christy looked about ready for smoke to come out of her ears as she stared at Logan. Then she seemed to all of a sudden realize that anger would not get her what she wanted so she put on a pouty face and in the whiniest voice I have ever heard she reminded Logan that he was her boyfriend and not mine.

Logan laughed at Christy and just ignored her as he turned back towards our table and tuned out Christy's ranting and raving.

Finally she stomped off and was followed by two little mini-me's of herself while the rest of the group decided to join us and Logan at our table. Logan had already claimed the seat next to me so everyone else soon found a seat and started talking.

I rolled my eyes as I saw my sister flirting with a blond surfer and I could tell already where it was going. Hopefully he was a man hoar otherwise my sister the slut may be in for a challenge.

Now don't get me wrong. I love my sister to death but the truth is she is a slut although she keeps her "conquests" hidden from everyone but me. The only rule I gave her for her fun was that she could never, ever sleep or make out with any guy I liked or was with and so far she had never even come close.

Logan introduced everyone at the table so that it would be easier to get to know each other. The guy Lilly was talking to was Dick Casablancas and his dad was a real estate tycoon and he was a sophomore at the high school here.

And then there was Jessica Minks and her dad owned a chain or fancy French restaurants all over Neptune, L.A., and San Francisco. She's a junior and the captain of the Pep Squad.

And then there was Shelly Pomroy who's a freshman like us and her dad is a foreign ambassador of some kind.

Then next to Duncan is Meg Manning whose parent's are wealthy but no one knows how. But she is so sweet and pretty that no one really cares. She's the captain of the cheerleading squad and she is also a Freshman.

The last guy at our table is Kenneth Parker and he is the football captain and all around Mr. Popular. His dad owns a couple different NFL teams and so that is what gets him into Football. He is a Junior and is dating or was dating Jessica Minks.

Then of course there's Logan. Son of two movie stars and a sophomore here at the high school. Logan doesn't do any school sports but he writes for the school newspaper and he is one of California's top surfers.

So that is how our little group came to form and started off high school. All in all it was a good way to start. High school was definitely going to be fun.

A/N: Let me know if you like it. I plan on trying to go all through high school and maybe even further. Just in case anyone's wondering Veronica is a mix of the cotton candy her and the hardened version. She is a spitfire but still girly and everything.

Please review. I want to know what you think and I need at least 5 reviews to continue. Okay thanks!!!

And if you have any questions just let me know!
