GoldCatMaster: LOL I love the Dana from Step by Step, she and my best friend Dayna's personalities are very similar, lol It must be the name, lol Yeah, Dana D. acts like Phil, she has a very calm and wise way about her, like Phil, Keely is more of a free spirit that isn't really sure what way do go, and needs Dana and Phil to keep her in line, lol Thanks, I'm having a blast writing it!

Regards,

Britannia

Be234therz: Thanks, I'm glad. Sometimes confusion is funny, lol Turns out I'm seein' them in Albany, a little further from me, and not quite NYC, but it's still Aly and A.J.! I think we're getting tickets soon, I hope I'm in row 1 or 2! LOL Wherever is cool, just not in the back!

Oh my, I've been so preoccupied with school, and writing this 1 I almost forgot that 1, I had to sign off in a hurry the other day because my grandfather that lives in England called, and calls from other countries are expensive, so I forgot to update the short one I had written the same day as the last chapter of this one, and I had an inspiration, and was on a roll, so the update is really long, I really hope you like it.

Thank-you!

The walk to Dana's house was a very short one, and Keely could handle it because she was so engrossed in conversation. Keely wanted to know everything that had happened to Dana in the past eighteen years, and likewise for Dana. Keely tried to fill her in the best she could without saying Dana killed Tanner, she would tell her that later.

When they turned the corner to the very fancy looking apartment building Dana lived in, Dana D. said, "Wow, you live here?"

The building looked like a hotel, it was about ten stories high, and looked like it was made of marble and glass.

"Yes," she answered smiling

"Nice place," Phil said

"Beautiful architecture," Keely said

They all filed in behind Dana, and into the gold elevator, when they reached the top floor, Dana opened Apartment 67A.

"Wow…." Dana D. said as she walked in, this was like the Sheffield's house in The Nanny, she couldn't believe how much marble, glass, and crystal she saw.

"Rachel!" Dana called

"Hey mom," Rachel said coming around the corner, followed by a really short, round, older woman in a maid outfit.

"Thank-you for watching her Lila," Dana said

"That's quite alright, madam, I adore her." Lila said, "Good day dears," she said

"Bye," Rachel said

It was uncanny how much Dana and Rachel looked a like, same bleach blonde hair, same ice blue eyes, and the same porcelain skin. Dana D. wondered if this is what people thought when they looked at her and Keely. Rachel was leaning against one of the gold trimmed sofas looking Dana D., Keely, and Phil up and down.

"Oh, how incredibly rude of me, Rachel, this is Dana, Keely, and Phil." Dana said

"Hi," she answered, still not sure why they were there, "Um, I'm sorry, who are you?"

"Oh, we're very old friends of your mothers." Keely said

"Really?" Rachel asked

"Yes, see we met in a coffee shop eighteen years ago…."

Keely walked down the street, and into the coffee house, she picked up "The New York Times, and sat down at one of the tables. A woman was reading the same section of the times she was, was sitting one table away from her. Keely was remembering the letter, the words on it continued to run through her head, just thinking about it made her cry. The women reading the same "Times" section noticed her starting to cry, and went and sat at Keely's table.

"Excuse me, are you alright?" The women said. The women had bleach blonde hair, light blue eyes, and was very pretty. Her face in general, made Keely feel better, she seemed nice, but Keely had just met her.

"No, um I mean, I guess," Keely said

"What's the matter?" the women said.

"Well, I-. I'm sorry, how incredibly rude of me, Keely Teslow."

"Oh, Dana Woodward."

"Nice to meet you,"

"You too. So, did someone die, what's wrong?"

"Well, my boyfriend just left me this note saying that he doesn't want to see me anymore."

"Well, how long have you been together?"

"7 years, we've been living together for 4 years, though."

"Oh, well, did you love each other?"

"Yes, well I thought we did."

"It all started when.."

Keely told Dana the entire story of Pheely (Phil and Keely), Dana was the first person who had really seemed to understand the entire thing.

"Well, Keely, it sounds like he didn't just leave, there has to be more to it,"

"Like what?"

"Well, do you know anyone who would do this to you?"

"No, I-," Keely stopped herself, it hit her, it had to have been Tanner. "Yes, my ex-boyfriend, he wasn't even in love with me, and he has this whole grudge against Phil."

"Oh my God."

"Yes, well, there's no telling what could have happened to Phil, what if he's dead, or they're torturing him?"

"Well, you have to find him,"

"I know. Where would I look?"

"Old ware-houses are usually where people like him have 'lairs', so to speak,"

"O.K., but I know it wouldn't be here in Manhattan,"

"The Bronx."

"I can't go alone,"

"Well, you need a police squad, I'll call them for you."

"Thank-you so much, you have been such a huge help to me, thank-you."

"Anytime." Dana said smiling at Keely.

Keely smiled back.

About fifteen minutes later, Keely and Dana had called the police squad, and they were outside, talking to Keely.

"So if it weren't for your mother, I wouldn't have thought to look for Phil, I would've just given up, and lived the rest of my life alone, and my Dana wouldn't be here," Keely paused, and stared into space, "Wait, maybe she would have….."

"Yeah, she would have," Phil said

"Alright, so I wouldn't be totally alone," Keely said

"Wait, so you guys weren't married eighteen years ago?" Rachel asked confused

Sure, none of the other stuff that was going on didn't confuse her but this did.

"Um, actually, no. We've only been married a year."

Rachel eyes widened, "A year!"

"Yeah, we couldn't think about marriage with having to hide from Tanner, and keeping the secret from Dana, it would've been too complicated,"

"More than it is now?" Dana D. said

Keely sighed, and hot Dana D. playfully.

"So you got married a year ago?" Rachel asked

"Yes," Keely said

"But you had Dana seventeen years prior to that?"

"Yes,"

"O.K., I'm confused,"

"Welcome to my world," Dana D. said smiling

Rachel thought Dana D. was the coolest person ever, she already looked up to her, and she had only known her for about five minutes, she and Dana D. had some strange things in common, they both looked exactly like their mothers, and Dana D. was named after her Rachel's mother,

A/N: TAFN bedtime! More tomorrow, hopefully, if my evil science teacher is nice!
