A/N: New ideas for this story!!!

I got dressed into my basketball clothes, and I strut myself down to the basketball court. I saw Zoey shooting as Nicole, Lola and Angela were trying to steal the ball from Zoey. I smiled nicely as I saw Lola's expression change into a smirk.

"Hey Ang." I confidently said, as the ball rolled over to me.

"Whatsup, Lil?" Angela said, with a bright grin on her face. Zoey smiled nicely as Nicole jumped up and down to try to reach the hoop.

"You guys know each other?" Lola asked, putting up her best smile to seem friendly. Me and Ang scoffed at the same time.

"Since the very beginning!" Angela said, reaching for words to explain how we met each other. I smiled, remembering how we met.

"Hi I'm- " Zoey said before I chimed in. I smiled, and laughed in a nice way.

"I know, Zoey. I'm D..." I stopped for a second. "Lily. Call me Lil or Lilster." Zoey came over and shook hands with me. Zoey still looked the same, but everyone had aged 2 years since we all met. It was sad that we're all growing up. Chase's hair is way too bushy to be the old Chase, Michael is eating too much chips, Nicole is become actually dare I say... normal... and Zoey? Still becoming a boy- magnet. Logan is actually becoming normal, and growing up just fine. Infact, he's doing TOO good of a job. As for me? I'm stuck being someone else for eternity. I'm not Lily Summers. I'm Dana Cruz. Formerly known as the PCA's quietest hottie who moved to France for some program.

"Cool. And this is Nicole, and this is-" I cut her off again with a smirk.

"Lola." I said, as we glared each other down. Zoey stopped us with her friendly chuckle.

"Hey, wanna try shooting?" Zoey asked, moving away from the hoop. We were about 7 feet away from the hoop. Perfect. I held the ball in one hand, and swung a shot at it. Zoey and Lola's heads went up to look at the ball fall perfectly into the hoop. Nicole gasped with a smile as I stood proudly and confidently infront of Lola. Zoey squealed, and gave me the ball again.

"There was only one person who could have such a great arm..." Zoey said, remembering Dana. Nicole nodded in agreement, and looked strangely at me.

"That cool chick Dana." Angela replied, remembering the basketball game. "She didn't know it but I really wanted to be her friend... but even if I tried to talk to her... she ignored me. She was really honourable, but even with a temper like her's... I don't know, but if it wasn't for her the girl's reputation at PCA wouldn't be like this right now. Too bad I never really got to know her." I didn't realize it but my eyes were 'raining' out tears, and the girls were looking at me weirdly.

"Huh?" I asked in a really 'wet' voice. "Oh hah." I dried my eyes. I didn't even know I had ignored my present best friend. She was the nicest thing that I'd ever had as a friend. I remember last week when I had forgotten my calculator for math and we had a big test and Angela was the one who gave me her calculator but she still passed with flying colors and I passed with an average grade. And she was the one who always gave me money when I ran out because of my craze for DVDs.

"Heh, hey she reminds me of Dana... alot in ways." Nicole said with a cute smile. "Hey, let's all get together at 5:00 at the girl's lounge tonight, and let's all play truth or dare. I'll call Chase and Logan too." I felt a shiver slither through my spine.

"What?!" I thought in my head, and just sighed.
