Miley answered, "Well, it's kind of a secret. But, I have another brother. He's a youth preacher. I also have an older sister. She's...." Miley trailed off, trying not to think of the hatred her sister had towards her.

"A secret? Okay" Grace said. "Oh, that reminded me! I'm not really sure why..." Grace paused for a moment then kept talking. "I think of weird things at weird times!" Grace laughed. "But seriously I haven't seen Micah at school lately! Have you? I saw him the two first days of school but I haven't seen him since. Have you?"

Miley said, "Oh, Peter pointed out amysterious looking guy on the second day of school. I haven't seen him since, so could that be him?"

"Yeah probably." Grace said. "His dad's a drunk, and he's troubled... I just kinda know him..." Grace looked down at the ground, then looked back up at Miley and smiled. "So you ganna be a cheer leader this year? I think I'm going to be, but I haven't quite decided yet...."

Miley said, "Well, I haven't tried out in a long time, but maybe we could try out together. I mean, I am pretty fit."

"Yeah! Lets go after school tomorrow!" Grace said. "Meet me outside of the gym when school over."

"Logan..." Ally's mind brought up an image of Logan Lerman. Wait, wrong Logan. She frowned at the phone.

"Ooooh, that Logan. Yeah, I recall the kid. Isn't he at the mall with all of you?" Ally spun her shoe's toe into the sidewalk, wearing it down. "And anyway," she added, "you and Sydney can do that, probably."

She rolled her eyes at Zach.

"Ah...," Johnny eyed Miley shooting down the sidewalk, sneakily abandoning him, just like Peter and Zach had done. He shifted. "What she said."
He offered a smile. "No, no! It's fine; what brings you here?" Johnny would have let her in, but the living room was a fine mess, clothes and papers and checklists for when he left for Ronia.

((OOC: Muahahahahah! I remembered what it's called! ))

Miley agreed, "I will. This is gonna be so fun!"

Stacey felt a little dunbfounded. What was going on? And didn't Ally know it was the next day? She sighed, then called Syd's cell.

And didn't Ally know it was the next day?

((OOC: Ally knew, but her writer was still confused! TELEPORT in time! ))

"Oh, wait, it's tomorrow...well, yesterday's tomorrow...is today...today is yesterday's tomorrow. Gotcha." Ally winked at the phone. "Sorry, brain bubble." But Ally didn't get brain bubbles. Only ideas and the occasional free-falling horror of being caught -- but other than that, Ally prided herself on not being "blonde". She sighed.

"Tell you what, girl. I'm heading to your house. Right now." And she stepped out of her room.

Sydney's phone produced a high-pitched ringtone. She pulled it from her back pocket, offered an apology to Declan and Rosamunde, and then answered it. "Hey, Stacey. What's up?" She stood from her beanbag chair and walked toward the window.

Bridget shifted in her high-heels. "Well, I just came from the music store down the street. My sister, Sydney, is in need of a new guitar...However, I don't know anything about them." She flipped her brown hair behind her shoulder. "I was wondering if you could help me. I mean, you don't have to go there with me, but if you could recommend a good acoustic guitar, that'd be great."

"Oh!" Bridget pulled two $20 bills out of her back pocket and held them out to him. "I also wanted to give you this. For helping me yesterday." She flashed a perfectly white smile.

"I will ignore the terrible deed you just did only because you are my cousin, as well as vice-president of our Post-its fan club." Declan said, then he stood from his seat walking over to the TV and turning it off so that the bouncing DVD logo wouldn't bug him during the game time. "But I think if we are going to play Monopoly, we should play Chocolate-Opoly. We could feast on these," Declan said pulling three bags of Dove chocolates bags out of his back-pack, "Because to play this game without chocolate near by is pure torture."

Stacey was glad Ally was not mad at her and remebered it was the next day . She went back to normal time and said, "Hey, Syd! You wanna come over? Ally is coming over and we're gonna have so much fun!"

Rosamunde laughed, plucking a chocolate from the bag. "You know, if it wasn't for your mother, Lenny, we wouldn't think Post-Its were quite so cool as we think they are..."

"Actually, I'm at the Troy house, hanging out with Declan and Rosamunde...Maybe some other time?" Sydney said, flipping her bangs to the side.

Stacey said, "Oh..okay that's fine! Well, I'll tell ya all about it at school! You tell me all about your time with the Troys. Bye!" With that, she hung up and waited for Ally.

Sydney said goodbye and hung up. She sauntered back to the others and sat down. "Now we can play."
