So this idea just came to me today, and I was so amused by it that I just had to go and write it down. By all means, the story is not meant to be taken too seriously lol. I hope you guys get a kick out of it. Happy reading!


Chapter One: Double Vision

It was lunchtime on another typical day at Hollywood Arts. The student body buzzed with eager chatter as the guidance counselor, Lane, went around shaking hands with students to show off his new ranch-scented lotion. Sinjin was creeping from table to table asking if anyone wanted to be in his latest film project about the effects of the overconsumption of bibble. So far he didn't have any volunteers; not even Cat, who was two weeks clean from the delectable British snack.

"So Beck," Tori started as she squeezed some ketchup onto her burger. "When is your cousin coming to visit?"

"He's supposed to be here later tonight," Beck replied before taking a sip of his lemonade. "I already got permission from the principal to let him come to school with me tomorrow."

"What's his name again?" Andre asked.

"Danny," Beck replied. "He lives in New York. My Aunt Karen says he's been having a rough time adjusting to his new school so she figured he could use a break."

Upon recognizing the name, Jade's interest was instantly piqued.

"Wait," she said, leaning in. "Isn't he the one who went to juvie for murdering your aunt?"

Silence plummeted to the table like a bomb as everyone stopped what they were doing and slowly turned to look at Beck.

"Was that really necessary, Jade?" Beck said, annoyed that she had to reveal something so personal about his family.

Jade raised her hands up in defense. "I was just asking."

"So wait, it's true?" Robbie jumped in, trying to hide the apprehension in his voice. "He really murdered your aunt?"

Beck let out a sigh and ran his hand through his hair, unsure of how to answer his friend's question.

"Look, it's all in the past now," he explained. "Trust me, Danny's a good guy. He just needs someone to give him a chance."

"That's what they said about my brother once," Cat said, twirling velvety red locks of hair around her finger. "Right before my parents took him to the 'special' hospital after he tried to give our neighbors' kid a haircut."

Cat began giggling to herself as the group exchanged uncertain glances. If what Jade said about Beck's cousin was true, then it was going to be the first time any one of them will have ever meet a real-life murder. The mere thought of it sent an uneasy chill down their spines; except Jade of course, who seemed to find a strange fascination with the whole idea. But who could expect anything less from a typical day in Hollywood Arts?


The next morning, Tori was at her locker retrieving some books when she felt a tap on her shoulder. She turned around and immediately screamed at the sight before her as her books fell with a resounding THUD! on the floor. Was she seeing double?!

"Whoa, calm down, Tori," Beck said, gesturing at his look-alike. "It's just my cousin, Danny."

"Hey, nice to meet you," Danny greeted.

It took a while for Tori to comprehend Beck's words as her mind tried to process the sight of two Becks standing before her. Meanwhile, Danny had bent down to pick up Tori's books and was holding them out to her. For two cousins, they looked eerily identical. The only differences were that Danny's hair was a little longer than Beck's and was tied back into a ponytail and that he had grown out some facial hair. But other than that, Tori could have easily mistaken him for Beck.

At length, Tori took her books from Danny and smiled warily.

"I'm sorry for staring," she stammered. "You guys just look so much alike."

Beck and Danny's brows simultaneously knitted in confusion, making Tori wonder if she was in some kind of twisted dream.

"Really?" Danny said. "That's the first time I've ever heard that."

"Yeah," Beck said, equally confused. "I don't think we look anything like each other."

"You're kidding…" Tori muttered, staring pointedly at the two boys.

Just then, Andre, Robbie and Cat approached the group.

"Hey guys, what's – whoa!" Andre faltered upon seeing Beck and Danny standing side-by-side.

Also taken aback by the sight, Robbie took off his glasses and wiped them clean for good measure, while Cat walked right up to Danny and started poking his shoulder to check if he was real.

"Beck, I didn't know you had a twin!" Cat exclaimed, her eyes wide with child-like wonder.

"He's not my twin, Cat," Beck explained. "That's my cousin, Danny. This is Andre, Robbie and Cat."

"Dude, has anyone ever told you guys that you look alike?" Andre said, squinting his eyes at the two boys.

Danny smirked. "Well that would make it the second time in my life that I've heard that."

"And it probably won't be the last," Tori said as she closed her locker door.

Suddenly the bell sounded throughout the school, prompting students to rush off to their first class. As the gang made their way down the hall, Cat's eyes lit up with realization.

"Hey, Beck can be at two places at once and no one would ever know the difference!"

The others muttered indistinct sounds of agreement while Beck rolled his eyes at the ludicrous thought and Danny chuckled in amusement. Somehow Beck already knew it was going to be a long and crazy week.
