Just a Hoax—Chapter One

It had been two months since Logan and Nicole's Jet-X crashed into that silver hybrid. Logan was released from the hospital. He was recovering quickly and was now out of a wheelchair and on crutches.

Logan and Dana were going strong. Logan was spoiling her with gifts and Dana was acting like Logan was her baby, feeding him and everything. Zoey and Chase were together still, but things were a bit uncomfortable. Zoey and Chase, because they had been such close friends, were still having trouble adjusting…even after two months. And as for Lola and Michael, well, let's just say, you don't see them half the time. Quinn and Mark were together, hell, even Dustin had a girlfriend. Leaving Nicole, who was single, a bit left out.

It was the morning and Lola, Nicole, Zoey, Quinn, and Dana were getting ready for their first period class, Media with Mr. Bender.

Lola was humming.

"Why are you humming, Lo?" Nicole asked.

"Isn't it obvious?" Lola asked.
"No…" Zoey said, sticking a tooth brush in her mouth.
"Just thinking about Michael…again," Lola smiled.

"Isn't it great to have a boyfriend?" Dana agreed.

"Mmm-hmm," Quinn commented.

Zoey, brushing her teeth, nods.
Nicole rolls her eyes, "I'm going to go to breakfast," she said softly.

The four girls, love struck, of course, didn't notice Nicole's pain.

Logan walked into Mr. Bender's classroom, on his crutches.

"Logan," Dana told him, "How many times do I have to have Chase or Michael or me carry your books."
"I can do it, babe," Logan assured.

Chase turned to Michael and pretended to throw-up.

The late bell rang and Mr. Bender walked in, "Good morning, Media Immersion class!"

"Good morning, Mr. Bender," The class said, unenthusiastically.

"Today, we'll be studying hoaxes in the news," Mr. Bender informed the class.

"What's a hoax?" Nicole asked, twirling in her chair.

Zoey raised her hand, "A hoax is something that's meant to trick someone."

"Good, Zoey," Mr. Bender continued his discussion, "Now, a classic example of a hoax is the Elvis hoax. Anyone care to explain?"
Chase entered the conversation, "Some people claim that Elvis is still alive, because they see him."

"Good," he said, "Now, I'm going to pass out a newspaper talking about a new hoax in the news."
Dana and Logan exchanged looks when they read the article. The rest of the gang stared at them in disbelief:

BREAKING NEWS! FELICITY CRUZ AND DANIEL REESE STILL ALIVE!

It was the ultimate news story in the year 1908. Daniel Reese, the biggest Hollywood producer, married to Diana Reese, was caught having an affair with Felicity Cruz. Felicity, a newcomer to acting, was playing the star in his newest movie. Once the affair was revealed to the public, Felicity committed suicide. The next day, Daniel committed suicide. Now, it's becoming clear that Ed Emerson, writer of the LA Times was PAYED to fake their deaths. The two eloped, cut themselves off from civilization and now live somewhere in the Malibu area.

Dana and Logan looked at each other and gulped, it couldn't be true.

Could it?

A/N: Guys, I know, do the math; no way they can be alive. But for purposes of this fanfic, if they are alive, they will be 70. I just don't want to hear complaining in reviews. Deal.

Speaking of reviews, review!
