"Finally, everyone's here!" Justin said. "Everyone, I'd like you to meet Alivia."

        The girl turned around smiling. Isabella and Monique gasped when they saw her. Isabella gaped at Alivia before she blacked out.

        "Oh my god! Isabella!" AJ said as he caught her and tried to bring her to. Monique and Alivia sat in shock staring at each other.

        Isabella shortly regained her senses. She stood up holding her head.

        "Are you okay babe?" AJ asked concerned.

        She smiled at him, "Yeah, I'm fine. I was just started. Alivia dear! We finally meet again."

        Alivia smiled standing up, "Yes, Isabella it's been quite some time hasn't it?"

        "It certainly has." Isabella stared at the necklace Alivia wore. A heart with a crown on it.  "I see you
also know my good friend Claudia."

        "Oh yes, I know Claudia, much longer than you in fact. But we won't get into years. I mean it's been
soooo long!"

        "Yes," Isabella's fake smiled continued to spread across her face. She glanced at Monique who was quite pale by now. "A lot of water under the bridge."

        "Yes. Well I'm glad to see that you're still doing well. What are you doing now a days?"

        "Oh I'm doing a little modeling and music videos.  That's how I met AJ" She clung to him. "You're still dating a Justin I see."

        "Well you know, there's just something about this Justin that's different though" Alivia said. I can't
believe this, she thought.

        "So wait, you two know each other?" Justin asked.

        "Oh yeah, Alivia and I go way back. Way way back."

        "Well I also know Monique and Biannca too. How could you be good friends with Isabella and not with her sisters? They always sick with each other you know."

        "So, shall we eat?" AJ asked pulling out a chair for Isabella. She sat down. The entire meal Isabella,
Monique and Alivia exchanged superficial conversation.  The guys were amazed at how the three acted to each other. Not like good friends at all, but more like enemies who wouldn't admit to each other that they
were.

        "You and Alivia don't seem to like each other much." AJ commented when they had returned to their hotel room. Isabella was changing her shirt. They planned to go clubbing.

        "Well, like I said, there's a lot of water under the bridge. Alivia and I are very old friends with a very
complicated past and it seems a great deal in common now." She said the last part more to herself.

        "What do you mean?"

        Isabella looked up at him, "Huh? Oh nothing. It's nothing at all. So can we not talk about this? I'd
really just like to go to the club and enjoy myself with you."

        "Oh, I think we'll have more enjoyment after the club" He said pulling her to him.

        "Oh you think so? Well we won't be able to see until after we've gone though. So hurry up and get ready!" Isabella tried to sound casual, but her mind was whirling. How could Alivia had known Claudia? How could she have done business with Claudia? And why was she back now? It was obvious that Alivia was here by no coincidence. Isabella was determined to find out why. The way to the club, Isabella's mind was in a completely different time and place.
