Hey guys! I just wanted to clear things up thanks to Yummy. I have to say im sorry but I don't think I'll be making the JoBros permanent here. Don't get me wrong, I mean I included them on the poll just to see the response I'd get. I don't really feel right about having them star in this story but I'm thinking of putting them in for a chapter or two. Just guest stars, nothing permanent. I hope you're not mad at me. So so sorry!

Knock knock knock knock

"Alex? You in there girl?"

Alex opened her eyes slowly and stifled out a yawn. She must've fallen asleep on the lounge chair out on the balcony. She rubbed her eyes lazily "Yea Mr. Stewart?"

"Where are you?"

"Out here!"

"Soaking up some sun, kiddo?" he asked, walking through the door.

Alex sat up and stretched her legs before turning to Robbie Ray, smiling innocently "Uh-huh"

"Well, just wanted to let you know dinner's almost ready. My boy Jackson's downstairs if you wanna meet him"

"Oh okay. I'll be down in five"

"Alright but I should warn you, whatever that boy says, DON'T listen. That boy may not be smart but he can be quite a trickster" he tapped a finger on his forehead.

"Oh no sweat. I know every trick like the back of my hands!" she snickered before noticing the look Robbie Ray gave her. "-er. Not that I would know… Cause I've never… Done… Anything bad… In my life before" she tried covering.

"Riiiight… I'll just go make sure Jackson's not trying to sneak an Emu into the house again" he said.

Alex could've swore she heard him mutter "Another possible Jackson" on his way out. She shrugged it off, smiling to herself and turned to look at the sun setting into the ocean "This sure is beautiful"

She ran into the room and grabbed her camera before running back outside, snapping a couple of pictures of the amazing sight in front of her. Walking back into the room, she took out her notebook and scribbled 'Day One : amazing sunset'.

"There. Done!" she grinned widely to herself. "And who says Alex Russo can't finish her homework"

"ALEX! DINNER!" she heard Robbie Ray yell from downstairs.

"Coming!" she placed her note book on the table along with everything else and rushed down the stairs when she caught a whiff of a mouth watering aroma.

"So what's for dinner? I smell something DELICIOUS!" she gushed.

"Some Tennessee T-Bone steak, marinated with a secret Stewart family recipe, mash potatoes and of course, some greens. Be a darling and help set the table please. I'll bring this right over" he said, scooping mash potatoes onto a bowl. "Now where is that boy? JACKSON!" he yelled again.

Alex heard someone running down the stairs.

"I'm here! That smells good pops!"

Excited to meet the other teenager she'll be sharing her house with, she finished up with the table and turned to him. "Hi I'm A- YOU?" her jaws dropped when she saw him.

"Hey! Aren't you the girl from the airport?" he asked, pointing at her.

"You two know each other?" Robbie Ray asked.

"Er No. nope! Never seen her in my life" Jackson said zipping his mouth.

His father eyed him suspiciously "Oh really? Then what was that I heard about the girl at the airport?"

"I'M the girl at the airport!" Alex exclaimed loudly.

Robbie Ray turned to her while Jackson stood behind him making panicked faces, placing his finger on his mouth.

Alex looked at Jackson and smiled sweetly, gesturing an ok sign before turning back to look at his father.

Noticing the relieved expression on Jackson's face, "He's the guy that bumped me over at the airport and made me drop everything in my bag pack and ran off without bothering to help me pick them up" she said in one breath, pointing at him, no longer smiling innocently.

As soon as Robbie Ray turned to eye Jackson, Alex shot him a smirk and waved at him with a smile.

Jackson looked the scary look on his dad's face that meant he was in trouble and back to the look on the girl's face behind me, just smirking at him. He managed a small nervous smile before shooting a glare at Alex. "This is gonna be a long month" he muttered under his breath.

fastforward for school!

"I'm sorry!" he hurried after the brunette.

Miley rolled her eyes and turned away from him.

"Let me make it up to you" he pleaded, following her.

Miley turned away again to the sub shop counter, grabbing her file with all Alex's class on it.

"What if I show you around school? will that make things better?" he asked, trying to catch her eye.

Miley stopped and glared at him.

"So is that a yes?" Justin asked hopefully.

Once again, she turned away from him and placed her stuff on the counter.

"What's going on here?" Theresa asked, carrying three lunch bags from the kitchen.

"She still won't talk to me" Justin said flatly.

Miley shot a look at him "And is that MY fault?"

"Well if you would just LISTEN to me cause I'm TRYING-"

"Listen to you!? I-"

"Woah woah woah. Stop stop stop" she raised her hands to get their attention.

"Miley, do you think you could try to just listen to what Justin has to say?" she said nicely.

Miley looked at her and sighed "I guess…"

"And Justin, does this teach you a lesson to NEVER judge people you haven't met?" turning to look at her son.

"Yes mom…"

"Good. Now Justin, I want you to show Miley around school. Miley, I want you to try not to hurt Justin"

Both of them grunted and said "fine…"

Once the teenagers left, Theresa wiped her fingers, smiling to herself "I'm good at this advising thing…"

"Okay, so this is Seaview. Pretty big" she looked around the building admiring the size of the school. "And now… school office… which is…. I don't know"

"A little lost little miss rat-me-out?" Jackson appeared in front of her.

Alex rolled her eyes and smirked at him "Oh are you lost to miss get-out-of-my-way?"

"Ouch" Jackson said dramatically "You know, I could help you out if you want. But with a little price"

Alex looked at him "What's the catch?"

"Easy. You stay out of my way, and I'll stay out of yours. Simple as that. Before we know it, a month will be gone and you'll be back in your own house problem free"

Alex broke into a chuckle "Are you serious? Man you're lamer than Justin"

"All I'm saying is, I'll give you the details on who to avoid, where to sit, what to do and when to do it and you'll have a pleasant stay Miss Russo" he smiled sweetly.

"So you're trying to sell me some info which I know I'll get in the next few hours?" Alex asked skeptically.

"It could save you the trouble on your first day" he assured her.

Alex chuckled and shook her head, walking past him "I'll pass. Now if you'll excuse me, I need to find the school office"

"Alright. If you say so" Jackson smiled and left.

Alex stopped and turned to watch him leave. 'something seems suspicious about that boy. Robbie Ray said he's a trickster. Tricksters don't give up that easily' she thought to herself.

Miley got her locker combination from the school office and tried to find the hall where her locker was. Other than the constant stares by everyone in the hall, very foreign faces and a few whistles from some of the guys, it didn't really feel any less like Seaview.

"Miley!" she turned and saw Justin hurrying towards her.

"Great" she muttered.

"Hey do you need any help finding your locker?" he asked nicely.

"Gee it's my first day and I don't know anyone here. What do you think Justin?" she spat at him.

A little taken back, he shrugged it off and gave her a warm smile "Look I'm really really sorry about what I said. I knew I was wrong. Let me make it up to you. I'll show you around town after school is that okay?"

Miley stared at him intently. Her face softened at the sight of his smile. It almost seemed genuine. Miley nodded "Okay" and gave him the piece of paper that had her locker number.

Still smiling, Justin took and paper and read it "Locker number 2107. Oh this is Alex's locker. Come on, I'll take you there"

Miley followed him down the hall to the next building. When they stopped, she noticed a girl standing in front of her locker. But she didn't really notice her, she was paying attention to what she was wearing. Miley stared at her up and down, not believing her eyes, thinking 'what is she wearing!?'

"Hi! You must be Alex's exchange student. I'm Harper" she smiled happily, extending a welcoming hand.

Finally snapping out of her daze, she took her hand and smiled nervously "Miley"

Justin looked at his watch "I'll leave you two alone. I gotta get to class"

"Class doesn't start for another 20 minutes" Miley said, confused. She wondered if they had a different system here.

"Oh I know. I have responsibilities to get to. See ya later Miley" he smiled and left.

'Man he's weird' Miley thought.

"Isn't he just adorable? I love it when he's off to his teacher's assistant duties" Harper said dreamily.

Miley looked at Harper, surprised "You kidding right?"

"Of course not, silly. It's adorable cause I'm imagining our kids to be just like him" she giggled.

"So… you two… are dating?"

"Of course we are. But he doesn't know that yet"

'Okay, weird times two' Miley thought.

Alex finally found the school office after 20 minutes of wandering around the school.

"Great, I'm late for class" she muttered.

"Here you go. Now you might want to get straight to class before you visit your locker. You have English first, so it shouldn't be a problem since they're having a pop quiz today" the old lady said.

"Thank you" Alex said politely before running out the door.

After 5 seconds, she ran back to the front desk.

"um. Where's English?" she asked nicely.

"Next building, up the stairs, down the hall, third door on the right"

"Thank you!" she said, running again for the second time.

Finally stopping on front of her English class, she took a deep breath and went inside. All eyes were on her as she walked in.

She walked nervously towards the teacher and handed him her note.

"Ah Miss Russo. I'm Mr. Corelli, your English teacher. Now would you please take a seat behind Miss Truscott. We're just about to begin our POP quiz. I hope you've read hamlet"

Alex took a seat next to a blonde girl who turned to look at her "Hi. I'm Lilly. Miley's best friend"

"Alex" she smiled.

When Mr. Corelli placed the paper in front of her, she read the first question.

What's the name of the main character?

"Who knows these things??" she said to herself.

"Is there a problem Miss Russo?" the teacher asked.

'Alex, be good… be good…' she told herself.

Failing miserably, she looked up at him "Yea. Since this is like, my first class here, I don't think it's fair for me to be sitting for this quiz. I mean, who reads about ham instead of just eating em?"

The class broke into laughters and giggles.

Mr. Corelli looked around the class "Stop laughing! All of you. Now Miss Russo, just sit for the quiz, quietly"

"But it's just not possible Mr. Corelli. I could stay quiet but I don't think I can sit for the quiz. In fact, none of us should. This is pure torture!"

"YEA!" the class agreed.

"no. no. no. settle down class. This quiz is meant for all of you to see if you've paid attention to our class last week" he said.

"But I wasn't here last week! So no. this is very unfair for me. I demand a lawyer!" Alex said sternly.

Half the class giggled at how ridiculous Alex was being.

"Fine! We'll do it tomorrow! So Miss Russo. BE PREPARED"

Alex smiled triumphantly at herself.

After class, Alex left the class quickly to check out her new locker.

"Hey Alex!" someone called after her.

"Hey. Lilly right?" she smiled.

"Yea. That was so cool of you. No one's done that to Mr. Corelli and gets away with it since Jackson" she giggled.

Alex smirked at the mention of Jackson's name "Well I guess there's a new sheriff in town"

"So where ya off to now?" Lilly asked.

"Oh I'm just looking for my locker" she handed Lilly the piece of paper.

"Hey this is Miley's locker. Come on. I'll get you there"

As soon as they turned to the hall, they noticed people crowding at Miley's locker.

"What's up with that?" Alex asked.

"Oh no" Lilly said. Her face looked like she was looking at a ghost.

Alex stared at her, snapping her fingers in front of Lilly's face "Lilly? Hellooo?"

"Jake's… back?" Lilly squealed.

Miley had just finished her Biology class and was ready to go home for the day. Still lost around the school, she accidentally bumped into someone and dropped her books.

"Watch where you're going! What are you, blind?" she said.

"Sorry" Miley looked up and saw a girl who was sincerely pretty but something just seemed weird about her nose. It reminded her of Tracy's nasal voice. Noticing the dress she was wearing, Miley's smile widened "I love that dress! Where'd you get it?"

"You should. It's one of a kind. And I got it somewhere I'm sure you can't afford it" she smirked.

Not believing what she just heard, Miley stared at her and crossed her arms against her chest "Mean girl say what?"

"Oh I'm sorry, was I too fast for you? I said-"

"I heard what you said!" Miley spat.

She took another look at Miley "Hey, aren't you the new girl everyone's been talking about?"

Miley felt herself blush "Well I'm new?"

The girl's smile immediately faded "I hate you"

Miley felt her jaws dropped. What is she? Another Mikayla?

"And by the way, you're outfit, where'd you get it? Clowns are us?"

Miley looked down at what she was wearing. A white tank top paired with a pink vest, a red mini-skirt and a pair of yellow ballet flats to match her moon shaped earrings. There was nothing wrong at all with it!

Miley gave a smirk "Oh were you talking about you're horrible shoes? I mean, ew. What were you thinking?"

"Watch it. This is my territory" she said, in a warning tone.

"If I were you, I'd be more worried about myself" Miley said with the same tone.

With a snap of her fingers, she left with two girls that had plasters on their noses.

"That's Gigi. You wouldn't wanna mess with her" she heard someone said from behind her. she turned and saw a worried looking Harper. "She's been on Alex's case since kindergarten too"

"Don't worry. I know those type of girls" Miley gave an assuring smile to Harper
