A/N: Hey sorry that I haven't updated in forever. But hey it's summer and I really don't want to stay locked up in a house sitting in front of a computer all day. But I'll probably update every week on a Saturday or a Sunday maybe even a Friday. Sorry about the delay in all the stories. Hehe...Yeah well thank you to all the supportive readers!

Veronica sat in front of the mirror staring at her reflection looking for flaws in her makeup. Good there are no flaws. Veronica patted down her hair and took a deep breath. Today was her first day leaving her house and actually going into town presenting herself to Neptune. Veronica stood up from the stool she was sitting on and smoothed down her navy blue Abercrombie polo and her jean skirt. (A/N: Hah...I really like polos.) Veronica took a last glance in the mirror. My ponytail looks fine and my clothing look fine alright I should be ready to go. She slipped on a pair of navy flip-flops and walked out her bedroom door. She hummed 'Who I Am Hates Who I've Been' by Relient K as she hopped down the marble steps. BEEP! BEEP! Veronica jumped down the remaining steps as she walked out of the house towards Duncan's car. She stared at the black BMW with a raised eyebrow.

"What's with the eyebrow, Veronica?" Duncan asked as he raised his own eyebrow.

"Well it's just that most guys that I know usually drive Ferraris or Porsches." Veronica replied.

"Oh well Neptune isn't like Beverly Hills you know. We're more modest I guess." Duncan said as Veronica hopped into the backseat of the BMW.

"Hi I'm Meg!" a girl with blonde hair and brown eyes said enthusiastically as she gave Veronica a sweet smile.

"Hey I'm Veronica but please call me Ronnie or Ronica." Veronica replied as she assessed Meg by the clothing she was wearing. Light pink polo, white skirt, pink flip-flops and her hair is in a ponytail. From my oh-so-awesome skills I can tell that Meg is sweet, innocent, peppy type of girl. She's sort of like that sweet home Alabama type of girl from what I'm guessing.

"So what do you think of little old Neptune?" Meg asked.

"Oh..Well a lot of people seem to ask me what I think on Neptune. Is it some sort of ritual?" Veronica joked. Meg laughed at the comment.

"I'm sorry that I asked." Meg said.

"Hey it's okay! No harm done." Veronica replied.

"Well we're here at the beach." Duncan said as he pulled into a parking spot near the sidewalk that led towards Dog beach.

"ALRIGHT!" both girls shouted as they hopped out of the car and ran towards the water. I mean who wouldn't be happy? It's summer time and your going to spend your day at the beach with your friends.

"So how was living in Beverly Hills like? Did you live next door to any stars?" Meg asked.

"Yeah I did see stars. But truth be told they don't look so great in real life. Living in Beverly is like a dreamland. Everyone has a big house and shiny new cars." Veronica replied as she laid down on the beach towel.

"Wow...That's s cool! I'd love to live in Beverly Hills..." Meg said with a dreamy look in her eyes.

"That's cool. But it's not all that great as everyone says it to be. I mean I sort of think that Beverly Hills is overrated." Veronica replied.

"What do you mean?" Meg asked with a questioning look.

"Well you see everyone thinks that it's so great and that everywhere you look you see a bunch of beautiful girls or a bunch of hot guys." Veronica said.

"Well I guess so..But everybody in Beverly Hills should have enough money to get some plastic surgery if they're ugly and all..." Meg said as she tilted her head confusedly. Veronica laughed at Meg's comment. She was definitely naive.

"Oh Meg...If they get plastic surgery they aren't truly beautiful the. Are they?" Veronica asked.

"Yeah I guess you're right. But it'd be nice to know that you're super rich and don't need to think about the money you're spending." Meg said.

"That may be true Meg but if you do that then you're money is going to go out more than come in." Veronica replied as both girls thought about the pros and cons of being rich.

"Yeah and I'd rather be poor. Money changes people for the worst." Meg said as she nodded her head in agreement with her statement.

"Yup. Being born rich may have it's perks but there are downsides. Like the paparazzi." Veronica said.

"Yeah. I'd hate to be stalked about a bunch of freaks." Meg said as both girls laughed.

"ARE YOU GUYS GOING TO SIT THERE ALL DAY?" Logan yelled.

"YEAH WE ARE! WE DON'T WANT TO RUIN OUR CLOTHING AND GET SALT ONTO OUR BODIES!" Veronica shouted back. Duncan and Logan ditched the girls to ride some waves instead of lying on the beach or as they like to say bake in the sun.

"Well Veronica you don't have to worry. After all your father could build you your own mall named after you and still have loads of money left." Logan replied as he walked towards them carrying his surfboard.

"Hah hah Logan. Laugh it up why don't you..I mean you shouldn't be talking your father could do the same thing!" Veronica shot back as she rolled her eyes at Logan.

"Don't roll your eyes at me young lady!" Logan mocked as he wagged a finger at her. Duncan ran towards them wet from falling into the water too many times.

"Geez you guys are immature. I mean come on! You're arguing about who's father could buy a mall!" Duncan said as they all laughed about how stupid the argument sounded.

"You're right Duncan. I mean we all know that my father could buy the most malls." Veronica said as Logan and Duncan objected to it.

"NO! My father's an actor he could defiantly buy more malls!" Logan retorted.

"Yeah so what? Your father's salary depends on his movies!" Veronica shot back as they started to argue about who's richer. Duncan and Meg sighed as they shook their heads at them.

"This is going to take sometime.." Duncan said as Meg nodded her head.

"WHAT DID YOU SAY DUNCAN?" Veronica and Logan shouted as they turned towards him.

"Uuummm...Heh heh heh nothing...?" Duncan replied.

"Thats what I thought." Logan said as he picked Veronica up.

"Hey! Put me down you jerk!" Veronica yelled as she pounded his back.

"Nuh uh! This is my revenge." Logan said as he laughed an evil laugh. Logan walked towards the water with a shrieking Veronica, who was telling him about how much her outfit cost and how'd she murder him if he dropped her. Duncan and Meg chuckled at how they were acting.

"If I didn't know that Logan was dating Lily I would think that they were dating.." Duncan said ans Meg laughed and nodded.

"AHHH! LOGAN ECHOLLS YOU BETTER RUN FOR YOUR LIFE!" Veronica screamed as they heard Logan laugh and run away.

"GET BACK HERE ECHOLLS!" Veronica screamed.

"NO WAY MARS!" Logan replied. Duncan and Meg chuckled as they watched Logan trip and Veronica hitting him with her flip-flop.
