This is a Hidden Springs story staring Dany Shue and Davy Cho. I hope you all enjoy this little story of mine.

Ch. 1: Dany

Hi, everybody! My name is Dany and this is my home.

I live in a town called Hidden Springs. I think it's a very pretty place, and I'm lucky to be here. I was adopted by Granny Shue. She's old but she's really nice. She cooks me and my brother and sisters breakfast every morning with fruit from her own garden. It's delicious!

Granny adopted me, and my brother and two sisters. That's Carlotta on the left and Gary on the right. Carlotta is so mean! Gary's nice though. He likes to read a lot.

This is me and Star. She's really nice to me, and she's green! She says it's because she's an alien but I don't believe her. I don't think aliens get adopted.

Oh, and Granny is green too! I don't know if you noticed, but I sure did! It's cool. I think she is an alien! She can't have kids and she even likes to play with us. Most old people around here don't want anything to do with kids. They're all celebrities who have lots and lots of money.

Granny has a secret, though. Every night, she sneaks away from the house while we're asleep. See, she thinks we're asleep but I'm not! I don't know what she does, but I bet she's making visits to her spaceship in the woods somewhere. There are lots of woods around here.

Cool nice start!
Nice explanation of the green sims lol.
And I think I can guess where Granny is going.

Thanks, Sportsfan. I'm really excited about doing this story.

Ch. 2: Davy

Hey, I'm Davy. I, uh, well, I live here. It's a really nice place.

I was adopted by my mom and dad who are really nice. People say I'm lucky because I live with such a rich family, but I don't feel that lucky. I love them, but they're never home. But I guess that's okay cuz I've always liked to be by myself. Dad is a... uh, I always forget but he works at Doo Peas so I guess he's some kind of farmer. I wish he wasn't always working on his computer when he's home, though.

Dad hired a butler to take care of cleaning the house and stuff. I thought you had to be a guy to be a butler, but I guess not. She cooks really well and she has the same name as Mom, too. Alisha.

This is my little sister Minzi. She wasn't adopted. It makes me feel weird sometimes knowing that I'm not really related to anyone. Mom works at the theater. She tells me that she "makes people stars," whatever that means. She works at nights so she tries to spend time with me and Minzi whenever she can. It's not often, though. She got to spend some time with Minzi the other day.

I love Minzi a lot, and even though she gets the most attention, I'm not jealous. It's not her fault and she is just so cute when she smiles. I like playing with her.

When I'm not spending time with Minzi, I try to do my homework. I guess I'm pretty good at school--I don't have a lot of trouble with homework or anything like some of the other kids.

Oh, and there's a kid in my class this year. I invited him over to my house yesterday, too. He's cool, but he's kind of... bubbly. His name is Dany.

Ch. 3: Worlds Collide

Hi it's me Dany again! I hope you haven't missed me. So the other day, I made a friend who goes to school with me. His name is Davy. He's really cool, and he has the coolest house! I went over there the other day after school. We played some video games. He has a whole lot of them.

I even found a fishing pole and went fishing in his pool, ahahahah! I don't think Davy thought it was very funny, though.

I went home later and helped with the chores. Granny has been working really hard lately. She keeps talking about getting a promotion because she wants to do something special for us. I can't wait to see what it is!

So, Carlotta and I help with the dishes.

Gary takes out the trash, and Star picks up around the house... in her dinosaur costume!

But of course we make time for play.

The weekend comes by and we finally get to relax. I invite Davy over to my house. I think he'll like playing with us. He only has his little sister and she's too young to do anything. Davy really likes the swings so I push him for a while, and so does Granny. She really likes it when we bring our friends home. I think if she could, she'd adopt everybody.

Oh, and we had a royal party too! It was on the front lawn, though. We don't really have a lot of room in the house to play much.

Davy didn't want to play royal with us. He just kept swinging. I don't think he likes being around us all at once.

We did go inside later and he played video games with me and Gary, but I really wish he would've played royal with us. We have lots and lots of costumes, and it's always fun to dress up.

Star and Carlotta went and played in the other room. They really like to go around the house in the costumes. I think they'd even go to school in them if Granny let them!

Later, Granny asks me about my new friend.

Granny: Hello my little Dany boy. So who's this new friend of yours, Davy?
Me: I met him at school. He's really nice, and he has a really big house!
Granny: Oh, that's right. you went home with him last week. I'm sorry I haven't been keeping up with you kids lately. I've just been putting in extra hours at work, and all I want to do is talk to you all!
Me: Oh, it's alright Granny. We still love you.
Granny: And I love you all too. You know...

...that Davy kid kind of looks like you.
Me: Aw, Granny stop pinching my cheeks!
Granny: But you're just so cute!
Me: But I gotta go to school!
Granny: Okay, off you go. Have a nice day. Oh, what was Davy's last name?
Me: Cho, I think? Why's it matter?
Granny: Oh, no reason. I'll see you all later. Love you!

It took me forever to get that shot lol. I almost had to turn free will off to get them to just stand still while everyone was getting there! I'm glad you're liking this story.

Thanks, Salty. I think people will enjoy this story even if they know exactly where it's going. I'm just trying to drop enough hints for people to get ideas about what will happen next, as if the title isn't enough of a hint haha.

Well, I know it's been a while... so update time! Originally, I was going to do alternating chapters by Dany and Davy, but I enjoy playing the Shue household so much that Dany gets two chapters.

Ch. 4: Big Changes

Hey guys, guess what! You'll never believe what happened. So, you know that promotion that Granny was trying to get? And how she wanted to do something nice for us? She bought a new house!

When we got there, she told us that there was a surprise in the left house. You bet we all ran to see what it was!

It was a play room! It was so cool. There's a tv and a costume chest and a toy chest and books and games and everything! It was so awesome.

Anyways, Star has been learning how to cook from Granny. And she just makes the perfect sweets. The brownies and cupcakes are so yummy!

Our birthdays were a coming up too. Granny surprised us with a party when we got home from school. Carlotta blew out her cake first.

Then Gary.

Then Star. Even Davy was there to celebrate!

And then me!

Here are pictures of us after Granny took us shopping for new clothes and new haircuts.

That's it for now, everyone. I know it's kind of short, but small updates are better than no updates! By the way, Star really was cooking perfect everything from the kid stove, and I hadn't purchased one until now. And Carlotta's eyes are really small! Oh, and Star's ears are GIGANTIC. Big like Bayless ears. I just had to hide them with her big hair, haha. And you can't see it here, but Gary has some really sculpted abs. Oh yeah, Carlotta added the trait Workaholic. Gary got Ambitious. Star got Natural Cook, and Dany got Charismatic.

Ch. 5: A Birthday Under the Stars

Hey, all. It's my birthday today. It's also Minzi's birthday. Mom threw a party for us. A lot of people showed up. Here are a few of them at my cake. Granny Shue, Mom, Carlotta Shue (behind Mom), Star Shue, and Hector Mendoza. I didn't really like all of the attention, but it was still nice that they showed up.

I wasn't really sure what to wish for, so I just kinda blew the candles out and hoped for something good.

Mom took Minzi to her cake.

(PS. I just realized I forgot to change Minzi's formal shoes. Those bright red shoes clash a little bit, hah.)

Star stayed late. We talked about lots of stupid things, like hot dogs.

And garbage. I didn't realize how dumb I sounded until it was too late. I mean really, what kind of girl likes to talk about hot dogs and trash?

She didn't seem to mind the stupid things I talked about. She just laughed. I thought it was funny because she looks like she's sneezing when she laughs.

She smiled a lot too. I think she has a pretty smile.

Later, she told me about how she likes cooking and how she wants to be a chef someday.

I told her about how that would be okay, except kitchens are really crowded and I wouldn't like to be around a lot of people.

Once it got dark, we sat down on the deck and looked at the stars. My hand kinda accidentally touched hers.

She didn't seem to mind.

Overall, I think it was a pretty good birthday. I got to know Star pretty well. Honestly, I didn't even know she was gonna stay so late, but I bet she didn't know she was gonna stay so late either.

For those who are following, I will not be updating this story for a while. I have three other multi-generational stories to work on. I will get to this when I can, because I still like the story idea.
