Hey everyone! This is my first story - I loved playing The Sims 2 and I wanted to write a story about Pleasantview because It's full of drama and mystery. I wanted to do a YouTube movie series on this but I'm not 100% sure.
If there's anything you'd like to see in this story - eg new characters, new romances, storylines, etc. please let me know!
I've took inspiration from TV shows that I've watched and how they pan out.
Please R&R! Thank you!
"Mooooooom!"
Mary-Sue dropped her pan in the kitchen as she heard the loud shriek from upstairs. Daniel helped pick it up for her, they looked at each other and Mary-Sue rolled her eyes.
"Yes, Angela?" she shouted up as she walked closer to the stairs.
The girlier twin walked downstairs "Lilith was using my computer again!" she shouted angrily as she grabbed her school backpack.
"Lilith..." Mary-Sue closed her eyes, trying to take deep breaths "Please, stop using your sister's computer" she looked up to see the more gothic twin coming downstairs.
"Maybe if you actually bothered to buy me a computer and not just Angela, that wouldn't be an issue" Lilith said back in a snarky tone as she grabbed her backpack.
"What use do you have of a computer?! Angela has one for studying and looking at what university she wants to go to" Mary-Sue snapped back. Daniel stood in silence - he was tired of the arguing, tired of this house.
"Maybe I would start looking if I had one" Lilith told her mom and then left the house. Angela walked over to her parents, hugged them back and then left for school.
"Daniel you need to help more, I can't argue back and forth constantly" Mary-Sue explained to her husband as Daniel went to put the rest of the washed pots and pans away in the cupboards. "I have enough on my plate with work, if you can just help out then maybe I'll stress less.. I could become a lobbyist or a campaign manager in the next few months" she explained as she put on her jacket.
"I know Sue, just enjoy your day at work and I'll make us dinner for tonight" Daniel said, giving his wife a quick kiss on the cheek.
"Goodbye Daniel" Mary-Sue said, still stressed as she picked up her briefcase and left the house. Daniel smiled to himself as he went upstairs to have a shower.
Loud music plays from the rooftop. Nina Caliente mixes drinks for both her and her sister Dina.
"Nina?" Dina asks, lying on the sunbed with her shades on.
"Yes Dina?" Nina finishes making the drinks and walks back over to her sister, passing her a cocktail as she drinks her own, sitting back down on the sunbed.
"It's one week until Don's wedding to Cassandra" Dina says looking over to see her sister's reaction as she sips on the cocktail.
"And?" Nina asks back calmly, not budging, keeping her cool.
Dina shrugs "I just thought you'd be bothered seeing as you both kissed a few months ago."
Nina finally sat up, "He never told me about the engagement until after we kissed, Dina... plus he tried to make the moves on you! I need a man, not a boy."
Dina sat up as well "And so you say, well we've both been invited to the wedding, it would be rude not to go, I am seeing Mortimer after all."
"I don't know what you're planning with that man, Dina but try not to be too harsh on him, he only lost his wife a year ago" Nina explained sympathetically.
Dina rolled her eyes "I was friends with Bella too! She was my sister-in-law!" she exclaimed, "It would be better if we were both together - mourning the loss of Bella and Michael, it would be good for both of us."
"Good for your pocket, as well" Nina giggled to herself.
Dina stood up immediately and faced her sister "Enough with the gold digging jokes. When I'm sipping margarita's with my husband, you'll be stuck here jobless and then who will you ask for help?" the blonde walked away from her sister and downstairs.
Nina thought to herself - she may be the witty one but her sister sure does have the better comebacks at times.
"Bag, house keys, phone, money for lunch-"
"Mom, I've got everything" Dustin told Brandi, stopping her in her tracks "You don't need to do this every morning - stop overthinking."
Brandi sighed "I know baby, I just like to make sure you'll be safe and you've got everything, I do care about you" she explained, hugging her son.
"I know mom" he replied, hugging her back "Remember I've got work tonight."
Brandi smiled "I'm so proud of you - now I know It's fast food you work in, but remember they'll put up your wages soon - what you're getting just now is so helpful for us Dustin, It'll help little Beau learn to be just like his big brother."
Dustin kissed Beau on the head and grabbed his school backpack "Bye mom, I love you"
"I love you too baby" Brandi replied back to Dustin. Dustin left and waited for his school bus, a smile on his face - it's not fast food he works in, but it's something so much more fun.
Cassandra stopped the piano as Mortimer walked into the room - she looked up at him and smiled "Good morning dad."
Mortimer chuckled to himself "Ah Cassandra, you play the piano almost as well as your mother!" he smiled and gave her a hug, "Now Dina is coming over for a little brunch, I hope you won't mind."
"Well, I'm not the biggest fan of the Caliente sisters as you know but I guess... as long as she makes you happy" Cassandra told her dad, smiling slightly.
"Darling, she just wants to get along with you too, one day I'm sure you'll become best friends" Mortimer laughed and Cassandra crossed her arms, not paying attention - no way in hell was that ever going to happen.
"...Anyway I need to get ready for work - enjoy your brunch date with Nina-"
"Dina" Mortimer corrected her. Cassandra sighed and went upstairs to get changed for work.
"Bye dad, I'm away to school!" Dirk shouted upstairs to his dad as he put on his school bag.
"Bye Dirk, enjoy school son!" Darren shouted back down. Dirk smiled and left for the bus. Darren was upstairs, painting away, he looked at his phone and saw a text message from Cassandra.
'Dad's got a date with Dina, they're getting serious, I don't trust her :(' Cassandra had wrote to him. Darren thought to himself and texted back laughing, telling her to enjoy work. He then looked at the wall, a picture of him and Cassandra on a night out - just a friendly photo of course, but Darren thought of it as so much more. He took it down from the wall and put it in the drawer - it was one week today that she was getting married to Don, he can't be chasing her anymore.
Darren walked over to the canvas, he was halfway through his painting. As soon as he picked up the paint brush he got a phone call. He rolled his eyes and walked over to his house phone "Hello?" he asked as he picked it up.
"Darren Dreamer?" a female voice on the other line asked.
"Yes?" Darren asked "This is he."
"I'm Jennifer, I'm a head hunter at Angel Recruit, I think we've found the perfect job for you!".
Lucy Burb left for school and Jennifer Burb walked out of her home office to grab some breakfast. "Hey honey, how's work so far?" John asked, kissing Jennifer on the cheek as he dished out some breakfast for him and his wife.
"Great! I think I've found the perfect person for this mailroom technician job" Jennifer explained "Darren Dreamer."
John nodded "Isn't that Dirk's dad?"
"Lilith's boyfriend?" Jennifer asked "Possibly" she said as she ate her breakfast "This could be great babe, if he gets accepted for this job, I'll get a good bonus."
"That's amazing, I'm so pleased for you and then maybe we can start thinking about having you know..." John started as he touched Jennifer's hand on the table, his fingers intertwining with hers "More kids."
Jennifer looked at him in slight horror "John I get you're ready for more kids but I'm just... not. I'm doing well in my career, and you're not working at the moment, I'm not cancelling everything in order to have a baby."
John sighed "That's not what I asked for..."
Jennifer quickly stood up "Time to get back to work, thanks for breakfast babe" she gave him a small peck on the lips and left to go back to her home office.
The door bell goes, the music continues to play, and Don has finished checking himself out in the mirror. He goes to answer the door and finds Kaylynn Langerak. "Hello, gorgeous" he looks over at the Caliente house quickly to see if anyone is watching, they aren't, he grabs Kaylynn and kisses her and she walks into the house.
"Why are you so paranoid about that house? Nina broke things off with you didn't she?" Kaylynn asks, sitting on his couch.
"It was mutual" Don said sternly and then sat next to her, cuddling and making out with her.
They started to take their clothes off, continuing the kisses and the moans. Don whispered in her ear and they headed upstairs to his hot tub.
Angela, Lilith, Dustin and Dirk all got out of the bus and looked around. Lilith walked over to her two friends - Ivy Copur and Orlando Centowski. "What's gotten into you?" Orlando asked, looking at the redhead as she crossed her arms angrily.
"More arguments with the family! I can't stand living under the same roof as Angie, I get it she's my sister and I love her..." Lilith exclaimed, she paused and then let out a sigh "But she needs to learn our parents aren't perfect, she needs to stop sucking up to them" she let out a gentle breath, calming down. Just then, Dirk walked over to her and she put her arms around him.
"You and your sister need to stop arguing on that bus every morning, you'll give the driver a heart attack" Dirk jokingly said and Lilith giggled - he was the only one that understood her.
"I know, I'm calmed down now" Lilith said as they embraced their hug.
Dirk walked over to greet Ivy and Orlando "Alright man, how's it going with Meadow?" he asked his friend.
Orlando thought for a moment and cringed "Eh, kinda broke up at the weekend" he said.
Ivy rolled her eyes "I've told him that she's too stuck up for him! The only person blondie cares about is herself!" she said to the group in an aggressive tone.
"Gee, you're more aggresive than me Iv" Lilith joked. The group finished their conversation and Dirk and Lilith walked away, kissing eachother behind the school.
"Can you believe her?" Angela looked at Lilith and Dirk as she spoke to her group of friends - Meadow, Tosha and Sophie "I mean she's always looking for attention in the house and just annoys me all the time - It's pathetic."
"I don't even know what Dirk sees in her" Tosha says, crossing her arms as the four girls watched the couple kiss.
"He's always nice to me" Meadow smiles at the group in her sweet voice "I never have an issue with Dirk."
Angela's eyes widened, like she had came up with a plan, she may be the sweetest girl in Pleasantview, but deep down she was something much more devious than that - especially when it came to Lilith. "You and Orlando split up at the weekend, right Meadow?" she asked her blonde friend, thinking to herself.
"Um... yes, why?" Meadow asked in a soft-spoken voice, curious to what Angela was thinking of.
"And if you and Dirk get along well..." she thought to herself again and then turned to look at the three girls "This year is gonna be fun. It's our last year at Pleasantview High, better make it a good one" Angela told the girls as she walked away and into the building, getting ready for class.
"What is she up to?" Sophie asked the other two.
"I don't know but it looks like this year will be a recipe for disaster" Tosha told Sophie, the two girls started giggling and walked off. Meadow looked down at the ground, worried - being one of the popular girls in school was tough, but being bossed around by Angela was even tougher, she wants to be friends with the three girls once they finished, but is hurting other people the way to do it?
"Meadow... hey... Meadow... Meadow!" a voice shouted from behind and Meadow snapped out of her daydream.
"Dustin!" Meadow gave the blonde boy a hug, he was so charming - blonde hair, blue eyes, mysterious, a bad boy, just her type, maybe that's why she couldn't settle with Orlando, but messing with Angela's boy is just a slippery slope to the bottom of the school pyramid.
"Hey look, I heard about you and Orlando, I um..." he thought and scratched the back of his head, they were standing so close to each other "I'm sorry, I know you guys only just started dating recently but I'm here to talk to, and Angela too of course."
Just then, Meadow backed away a little - Angela, she forgot. "Yeah... thanks Dustin!". Dustin smiled at the beautiful blonde and the two walked inside for class.
"You're late."
"Sorry, you know I've got other clients to see" Kaylynn replied to Daniel as she wiped a little of her smudged makeup off her face. Daniel grabbed her and pulled her in for a kiss "Daniel, we need to talk..."
Daniel rolled his eyes "Talking?".
"Yes, when are you going to leave her? It's been 7 years" Kaylynn asked him.
Daniel rolls his eyes and then pulls her close "You know it'll be soon, once the kids are out to university and Mary-Sue gets her promotion, she'll think she's too good for me, I won't be surprised if she breaks it off first."
Kaylynn smiles at him "Good, I've broke things off with Don, It's just you we're waiting on now" she caresses his cheek and he smiles at her.
"And it won't be a long wait" he pecks her lips "Now how about we go have some fun?"
Kaylynn blushes and the two head off into Daniel and Mary-Sue's bedroom - Kaylynn wants the loving husband and family that she's dreamed of, but playing with Daniel is like playing with fire, make sure Mary-Sue doesn't catch you, or you'll get burned.
