Here's the second chappy!

Chapter 2; They're Here!

(Victoria's P.O.V.)

Anna kept her word and arrived at 9am, sharp.

I walked downstairs, in a plain t-shirt and sweat pants, and answered the door.

"Are they here yet?! Where are they?!" Anna asked, excitedly and looked around the living room.

She rushed past me, inside.

"Are they upstairs?!" She had one foot on the stairs.

I laughed.

"No, Anna. They're not here yet. Like I said, knowing them, they're probably not gonna be here until at least 3pm."

Anna let out a heavy and exasperated sigh and plopped herself onto the couch.

I shut the door and I noticed Anna was looking at me with a 'You've-Got-To-Be-Kidding-Me' look.

"What?" I asked, checking myself to make sure I didn't forget to put on pants.

"You've got to be kidding me..." She finally said.

"What?!" I asked getting impatient.

"You're actually gonna wear...THAT in front of Connect Three?!" She asked, eyeing me as if I've lost my mind. Jeez, it's only Shane, Nate and Jason. What was I supposed to wear? Some stupid skimpy seductive dress?

"So? What's wrong with it? They're only Connect Three...And would you quit referring to them as 'Connect Three'? It's just Shane, nate, and Jason. Besides, who cares, they'll probably just not even recognize us..."

"Okay, one; you have GOT to get real. Connect Three's just short for Shane, Nate, and Jason. Sheesh, unless you wanna say 'Shane, Nate, Jason,' every time you mention them which would probably be more than 5,000 times a day. And two; you have GOT to change into something else." She said, pulling me upstairs to my room.

She spent hours looking in my closet and settled for a black mini skirt, with a silver belt, black leggings, a white tank top and a black crop sweater and shoved me into my bathroom.

"You better be changing in there, Tory!"

I sighed and gave up. I changed into the outfit she put together.

I looked in the mirror and actually started to like the outfit. It actually looked really nice.

I've always loved her styles.

I walked out of the bathroom, flaunting my outfit.

"See, Tory? That looks great on you!" Anna exclaimed.

She turned on my stereo and we started dancing around like crazy. I looked at my alarm clock and it was noon.

Then we heard an earth-shattering scream. I quickly turned off my radio and ran downstairs, curious of what happened, with Anna half a step behind me.

"What Hap---" I started.

I froze on the last step, with Anna screaming in my ear.

"Ow! Anna, really?!" I exclaimed, covering my ears.

"I'm so sorry but...Oh-My-Goodness!!! You're CONNECT THREE!!!" She exclaimed.

"Nah, they're only clones..." I said sarcastically.

Nate was staring at Anna and I, as if he's seen us before. Oh gee, hey, Tory! How was your day yesterday? Oh not much fun, just the fact that I'm gonna have to share a house with my former best friends ever…WHO LEFT US!

My mother was a little angry at me for using sarcasm.

"Victoria Michelle Gonzalez! How many times have I told you not to use sarcasm in front of our guests?!" She started. Okay, maybe a little more than little…

I interrupted her before she gave me a lecture in front of Shane, Nate, and Jason and their parents.

"Sorry..." I muttered, looking away.

"It's alright, Shane here uses sarcasm a lot as well." Mrs. Grey said.

I half smiled and started up the stairs.

"Hold it, Tory. Nichole, Justin, your father and I are going to be out of town for today and tomorrow. I do not want any of you guys giving Jason here," My mother started, putting a hand on Jason's shoulder. "a hard time. You hear me, Victoria? Alyson? Jason will be in charge." She added.

I just nodded. Then rolled my eyes when no one was looking.

My parents were almost out the door until my mom turned back and looked at me.

"And, Tory? You and Shane will be sharing the attic room. And you two can work out the bathroom problem. And please, show the boys around. Alright?" She plead, mostly warning me and Alyson; no parties.

I nodded slowly and our parents left. Why would I throw a party? I don't even know more than half my school! Oh and wonderful, I'm gonna have to share the same SCHOOL with this pop-star and now I have to share a ROOM with him? AND A BATHROOM? … If it weren't for the fact that I'm only 16 and still live with my parents, I so would've just kicked his---

Nate was the first to break the silence.

"I'm Nate." He said, sticking his hand out to me.

I took it, adding, "Victoria...But I go by Tory..."

Everyone introduced themselves to each other and Anna, trying to be the funny one, turned to me with her hand out.

"Hi. I'm Savanna." She said and smiled.

I rolled my eyes playfully, with a smile and shook her hand. "Hi Savanna. I'm Tory."

Everyone laughed, including me surprisingly.

"So, when are we gonna get a tour of the house?" Shane asked.

Anna answered before I could.

"Right now!" She exclaimed.

And there's chappy 2 for ya! Thankies!
