I always forget to do this, but I don't own JN!! But I do own Morgan and Courtney!! (Hey, it's a start!) Thanks to all of you who R/R my other two stories, and thanks to all that have and are going to R/R this one! And, of course, thanks to my fellow P/L's for just being the P/L's!!

Ch.3 Courtney and "The Plan"

"OUR SISTER?"

"Yes. Dad got married five years ago and had Courtney. He was divorced two years ago."

I backed up slowly, bumping into someone.

"Libby, are you ok?" I heard a familiar voice ask.

Carl and Jimmy suddenly appeared behind me, concern written on their faces.

"I'm...I'm..." I just couldn't get the words "I'm fine" to come out. Morgan ran to my side as I started to zone out.

"How could he?" was the last thing I said before I passed out in Morgan's arms.

"She's awake!"

I carefully set up and looked around. I was in my bedroom, surrounded by my mom, Morgan, Kent, Keri, Cindy, Sheen, Jimmy, and Carl.

"What am I doing here?" I asked, my voice weak.

"You totally fainted at the Candy Bar!" Kent said, smiling brightly at me.

"And these people brought you home," Keri finished, pointing at Morgan and my friends.

"We're glad you're ok, Libby!" they said together.

I hugged my younger siblings and smiled, "Um..Mom? I need to talk to Morgan and my friends alone, please."

"Well, of course, baby."

She ushered the twins out of the room and gave Morgan and me another smile, "I'm so glad to see you to back together!"

"So what'd you want to talk to us about, Libby?" Sheen asked, looking at my CD case, "WOW! This is the same color purple Ultra Lord wears!"

"Yeah, Sheen, I know," I said, rolling my eyes.

Morgan gave me an odd look before breaking out in a grin and shaking her head.

"Trust me, you don't want to know about that one," Cindy said, plopping down on the bed beside me.

"Hey! Don't talk about Sheen!" Jimmy said.

"Uh, oh," Carl said, "Everybody take cover! It's another Jimmy/Cindy fight!"

"Guys! Not now! This is serious!" I said, pulling Cindy away before she could argue back.

"Why, Libs?" Cindy asked, momentarily abandoning her argument with Jimmy.

I explained everything to them just like Morgan had explained it to me, "So now we have to sabotage that wedding in L.A.!"

"Do you really want to do this, Libby?" Cindy asked when I was done, "This is your Dad's life, you know."

I nodded, "Yep, I know. But we're doing it anyway!"

I'd never seen my friends so excited as we loaded the hover car with supplies. We'd be staying a couple of nights in my dad's beach house where Morgan and Courtney had been staying for a few weeks, since Dad got engaged. Who wouldn't be excited about spending an entire weekend in a fancy beach house in L.A.? Oh yeah...ME!

"Libsee, are you going to be alright?" Morgan asked, "Are you sure you don't want me to ride with you?"

"No, Morgan! You get Courtney from Grandma's and meet us there, ok? I've done worse stuff than this, trust me!" I said laughing.

"Well, if you're sure..." she herself seemed unsure but smiled nervously all the same.

"I am. These are my friends and strange as it may sound, I trust them."

Morgan waved and turned to leave, but turned back around and frowned, "You've done worse stuff than this?"

Cindy laughed, "Take it from me. Compared to some of the adventures Libby's be on with those three," she said, pointing at Jimmy, Sheen, and Carl, "This is just a walk down the street."

I waved goodbye to my sister as the hover car took flight, "Bye Morgie."

"Bye, Libsee."

"Libby, your sister's COOL! I wish my sister would let me ruin a wedding in Los Angeles!" Sheen said as he tried to count the trees we passed, "Are you feeling, ok?"

"Yeah, Morgan's awesome! I'm just nervous, that's all. Seeing my dad after six years, and having another sister! I just don't know if I'm ready for this!"

I would've fainted again, but Sheen smiled and said, "Sure you are Libby! And ruining things is fun! That'll make you feel much better!"

Little did he know it was HIM that made me feel better. He always does and how I have no idea. I guess it's the way he looks at life like one big video game that he's trying his best to beat, but can't quite get past the last level. But he still keeps trying, no matter what gets in his way! I wish I was more like that.

I leaned a little closer to him and smiled, "Yeah, it probably will."
