Grazie per the reviews…

Emma Barrows- Hm… Via is incredibly insightful… but we'll just have to wait and see, won't we?

BethanyKatherine- Hey, I can say awesome: Mitico! Hahah… Anyway, I kind of figured that Candida would kinda be weirded out after the Maybe-Sitting incident… but who knows?

CiTyGrL0912- Yeah… Phil has a severe case of motor mouth… :)

TJ- Thanks for that… interesting poem. :)

be234therz- Glad that both you and your mom enjoyed my references… they were strokes of brilliance, really.

PheelyPhan- I'm sorry your arm fell off… but uh, they can reattach it, right? Anyway… Owen is quite the fool, and I had to have Via point that out… hooray for Via!

Pathos- I realize now that I neglected to mention Via got up and sat next to him after the teacher said to partner up for a discussion… I'm sorry, if that confused you…

moofoot- Okay… don't worry, you're not making a 'gigantic insulting fool' of yourself. And… while "I Miss My Mind…" did end after amnesia and depression, remember… it had a HemoPheelyac-worthy ending. Anyway, I love that you love these chapters… and that you love Via Platonically… and, er, uh… the Six Feet Under reference? AJ Michalka… she guest starred for a few episodes of that, so… and since my lovely Bonnie is based on AJ, I thought it'd be so fitting… Hey… I know some Italian… Io voglio un burrito, latte molto caldo. (I want a burrito, milk very hot.)

Okay, I think that Chapter 5, Pensò Alle Notti Là In America (She Thought Of The Nights In America) is going to start in 3, 2, 1...


"Vide le lucci in mezzo al mare," ("He saw the lights in the middle of the sea.") the class chirruped, as Keely and Via were talking to each other.

"I think that something's a bit… off… with Phil," Via muttered.

"What do you mean?" Keely asked.

"Well, I… he's just been acting strangely. For one, he thought that you were breaking up with him…" she added with a laugh.

"What?" Keely asked, as the rest of the class said, "Per te sono qua." ("I am here for you.") "Where did he get that idea?"

"I think he mentioned something about Owen… and how he said that you weren't spending much time with him, so he thought you were breaking up."

"Well that's ridiculous!" Keely said.

"That's what I said," Via agreed. "But… I don't know if he's entirely convinced… I think he means to take you out somewhere romantic..."

Keely raised her eyebrows. Well, if Phil was going to take her somewhere exceptionally romantic, maybe she should lead him to believe she was breaking up with him!

"I dunno. I guess I could be spending more time with him, but… I don't know. But I haven't forgotten about him. See, I'm writing a song for him and everything!" Keely said, opening her notebook and pointing to a page full of hastily written lyrics. "It's a work in progress, but…" she added, as Via scanned the lyrics.

"This is really good," Via said, handing it back, as the class chorused, "Sono là." ("I am here.")

"You think so, because--"

"What's this, Miss Teslow?" the teacher asked, as Keely shut her notebook.

"What's what? I was just asking if I was conjugating something right…" The teacher, whom most would agree bore a striking resemblance to a hawk, looked at Keely for a while longer, then turned around, and began writing on her board.

"Quick thinking," Via muttered. "I thought for sure she'd throw it away if she found it…"

"Definitely can't have that. Phil needs to be the only one to see this…"

Little did Keely know that that plan may have been harder than she thought…

Because that very afternoon, as part of a plan she'd been thinking of long before she teamed up with Candida, Pim was about to execute stage 1 of something she'd long wished for.

And, since Lloyd and Barb would be gone, it'd be the perfect weekend to execute her master plan.

It was going to be a fun weekend for Phil!


Yeah, this chapter's short. I'm sorry... Don't worry- you'll eventually see what Keely's song is. I'm in the process of writing it right now… Anyway, as is my tradition, I will remind you to review, only in an exciting way that I managed to tie to the story:

Reviewing will never hurt you…

Anyway, I regret to inform you that it might be a few days before I can update again… something about my computer is corrupted or something, and we need to get it fixed up. But rest assured, I don't need the computer to think up ideas, so I'll be thinking of more chapters, and I'll start releasing more as soon as I can.
