When Maddy and Ava got to Dumbarton 303, they stood in the doorway for several moments, observing the room.

"Trying not to think about what happened in here twenty years ago?" Ava asked Maddy.

"Yep."

Ava nodded in agreement, freaked out by the idea of what her parents had done in this room. She shuddered at the idea. "Our moms were sluts Maddy."

Maddy giggled. "Yeah, my mom told me how her and my dads relationship was a little crazed sometimes and how she had little flings when they like, weren't 'together'."

Ava heaved a frustrated sigh. "This is just so... unfair! All they told us was the crap about the school that they were like, supposed to. But did you see the looks all older teachers were giving them? And I could have sworn I heard one of them saying somthing like 'brat pack juniors have arrived." She scrunched the hair tie around her pony tail up higher in frustration. "Maddy, our parents were legends! And we have to find out what they did so that we can overshadow them!"

Maddy stared at her for several long seconds, wondering if Tinsley was this high tense as a teen.

"Do you know how insane you sound right now?"

Ava rolled her eyes at her before crawling into bed. "Whatever. But seriously, you're not even a little curious as to what your parents did that made them so memoriable?"

Maddy thought about it for a moment. She wasn't sure she wanted to know. Easy and Callie had been so discreet about their experiences as students that it had almost seemed like they were trying to hide something. Well what was it?

Ava could see that Maddy was intrigued, and her eyes sparkled in excitement.

"We'll find out somehow. I will not graduate from this school with my parents going down in history as being... cooler then I was." She shuddered at the thought. "How effed up would that be?"


First period the next morning, Maddy walked into Portriture class, where Mrs. Silver was still the teacher. Wait, her dad had mentioned how he'd always been Mrs. Silver's favorite! SCORE FOR MADDY!

"Mrs. Silver?" said Maddy, sticking out her hand as she approached her. "Hello. I'm Maddy Walsh."

Mrs. Silver's eyes went wide when she heard Walsh. She immediatily saw Easy's adorable dark blue eyes in Maddy. And the hair...

"You're Easy and Callie's daughter? Welcome!" she wrapped her skinny arms around Maddy, while Maddy put on a happy face but inside wanted to sit down as this ladies hugs felt like being rubbed agaist crinkled sand paper.

"You can sit right here in front Maddy!" she said, pointing to the seat in front of her's. Maddy was a little taken aback when she saw tiny tears creeping out of the corner of Mrs. Silver's eyes. "I bet you could give you father a run for his money in this class!"

Maddy's eyes grew wide in interest. ANOTHER SCORE! First period and she already had a chance to outshine her dad.

"Well," she said casully. "I did take some art lessons when we were on vacation in Marsaille."

Mrs. Silver was practically crying tears of joy now.

"Oh, yes you are going to be the star of the class, I can see it now!"

Maddy coughed down a giggle. Mrs. Silver was kind of wierd. But she had a chance to be the best art kid who Waverly had ever had. Move over dad, she wanted to yell out the window, hoping that he'd hear her all the way from the city, Mrs. Silver has a new class pet!

As she scanned the room to check out who was in the class, she spotted a head full of unruly curls- Sean! Sean was in her class! TRIPLE SCORE FOR MADDY!!! Yes, she could see herself having a very, very good time at Waverly.

Sean had noticed that Maddy was in the class. She seemed okay. Maybe a little high-tense, but cute. No matter how cute she was though, he couldn't help but feel a little cautious about her. His mom had told her things about her parents. And from what she'd said about them, they didn't seem like the kind of people Sean was comfortable associating with. Jenny had pretty much described Callie as a manipulative, spoiled princess and Easy as... well Sean had caught the drift of what she'd been leaning towards without using profane language but, she'd said that Easy was nothing but a self- centered playboy who, at least from Jenny's point of view, "was only attracted to Callie because she was the only girl who had an ego that was as ridiculusly as large as his." And four years before, when Jenny had gotten a letter from Brett, Brett had mentioned in the letter how Easy and Callie had a little girl. Sean had heard her mutter to his dad "I can only imagine what a self- rightous little drama queen she is. What do you expect though, I'm just surprised their house hasn't exploded from so much ego in one area." Well. She definitly knew where she stood in her opinion of them. Sean wasn't so sure though. In regard to her upbringing, Maddy would certainly seem to be your typical "I'm all that" rich girl. But judging by the way she was looking at him and the way she'd acted so polite to Mrs. Silver... maybe she wasn't a total carbon copy of her parents?

Maddy wished that she could read Sean's mind. And maybe change some ideas that she was sure were sworming around in there. She'd only heard her parents mention this Jenny lady once. When all of their friends from school had come over, like 5 years ago, Maddy had heard Mrs. St. Gerald (Alison) mention how she'd caught up with Jenny recently and that she and Julian had a boy who was Maddy's age. Callie's nostril's had flared up and she'd looked really, really pissed off for a few seconds. And then, as if she was refusing to let the idea of her daughter and Jenny's son possibly getting together enter her mind, she'd smiled and asked the maid to get some more biscets. Obviously there was some bad blood between them. She didn't even want to think about what he had probably been told about her. But... just because they're parents hadn't been uber-close, didn't mean that she and Sean had to hate each other. That would just be silly, letting whatever had happened twenty years ago come in the way of them being friends. And, Maddy reminded herself, the parents were not with them, so they couldn't stop them!

"Hi Sean." she said sweetly, as she approched his table and sat down in the empy chair next to him.

Sean stuttered for a moment, a little hypnotized by her enormous blue eyes.

"Hey. You like portriature too?"

Maddy shrugged. "My dad's an art freak so I was kinda born into it." She swollowed quickly, unsure how to continue. "Uh... I don't know what you've been told about me and I'm not trying to judge or anything but- I just thought that it would be stupid of us to not be friends because of whatever happened with our parents like a hundred years ago."

Sean nodded in agreement. "Yeah. You have a good point. Would you want to get some milkshakes or something after dinner?"

Maddy was a little taken aback for a second. He liked her. YEEEEEEEEES!!!

"Sure." she said, blushing as she walked back to her seat, smiling at the expression she'd conjurned in her head of the horror her mother would be going through if she knew that Maddy was going on a date with evil Jenny's son.


When Ava arrived at Mr. Corington's third period study hall, she was greeted by several strange stares... from older kids. What the hell was their problem?

As she sat down in a desk near the window, she heard some junior girls whispering. What were they twelve?

"I heard about her mom Tinsley, she was like the queen of the school when she went here. And she got kicked out her sophmore year for doing drugs but then she got back at the beginning of the next year. It was her and that other freshman girl Maddy's mom Callie and that little Hailey girl's mom Brett, they were like best friends and Callie and Brett totally denied that they'd done any drugs but Tinsley didn't so she got kicked out." The girl sighed. "I wonder how long her kid's gonna last."

Ava struggled to organize the tidal wave of knowledge she'd just discovered from cracking her brain in two. Her mom and Aunt Callie had been busy! She could hardly wait to Maddy...

I'll update in a few days.
