Hey there guys. Sorry that it's been so long since I've updated my other stories. I've lost my major obsession with Host Club for awhile, but don't worry. I'm almost down with the next chapter for Holding Out For a Hero. :) Don't know when it'll be up though.

Anywho, I absolutely fell in love with The Hangover when I saw it and still can't stop watching it. It also helps that I have a thing for Bradley Cooper too. Mmmm...Bradley. Haha. But yes. This will be a PhilxOC story. :) Phil is divorced in this one, much like the other few fics out there. XD

Disclaimer: I do not own anything except for my OC Maddison. I do wish I could own Bradley though. Flames will be used for my grill to make delicious hot dogs. :)

Stranger Things Have Happened But Not Like This

Chapter 1: About A Girl

"We can't find Doug." Silence. "Yeah. That's not gonna happen."

OoOoOoOo

I bet that you're confused right? Well, before this goes further, I should introduce myself. My name is Maddison Dean Billings, twin sister to Doug Billings, the man that we have "misplaced" at the moment. Most just call me Addie though. Our best friends growing up are Stu Price and Phil Wenneck.

Now that you have a few general details, let's get back to the situation at hand, yes? My friends and I lost my brother during our marvelous adventures in Vegas two nights ago. What's even better is that he's getting married in five hours.

I guess in order for you to understand how we accomplished such a task, we should start at the beginning right?

OoOoOoOo

Two Days Ago

"Wow," I said, looking at my reflection in the bridesmaid dress, my soon to be sister-in-law behind me.

"You look beautiful, Addie," Tracy said smiling.

"Not as much as you will Mrs. Billings," I teased causing her to laugh.

"True, but I'm not going to have Phil's eyes all over me."

I rolled my eyes. "His eyes are always 'all over me.' Quite annoying at times really."

"I don't see why you haven't told him you love him yet. And don't lie to me Addie because you do. I've seen the way you look at him. Doug has as well."

I groaned as I began undressing. "Phil just got divorced a few months ago Tracy. Besides, I don't want to take the chance of ruining everyone's friendship with each other. And Dougie knows?"

"Even so Addie. And yes," she laughed as she took my dress, hanging it up for me. "Isn't that what twins do? Know everything about each other?"

"Yeah. But a girl has to keep some secrets, even from her twin brother," I replied joining in Tracy's laughter as I finished getting dressed into a black t-shirt with white angel wings on the back, dark blue skinny jeans, and my old pair of black and white Converse.

"Well, I guess I'll go see if Doug and Alan are done now so we can get going."

Tracy gave me a hug. "Have fun then."

"Will do," I replied as I made my way to the room that my brother and soon to be brother-in-law were at. I stopped in the doorway though because of the odd and slightly disturbing moment in front of me. Alan, who was clothed in only a t-shirt and a jock strap, was hugging my rather uncomfortable looking brother. "Am I...interrupting something?" It took all I had not to laugh and Doug knew too if his glare didn't give it away.

"Hi Maddison," said Alan, releasing Doug. I sighed and closed my eyes as he turned around. Thankfully, growing up around the guys has made me somewhat immune to such things.

"It's Addie, Alan. And please put some pants on."

"Okay Addie," he replied as I felt a pair of hands on each shoulder making me open my eyes.

"Come on. Let's go wait in the car," Doug said turning me around before pushing me out the doorway.

"Have a nice moment Dougie?" I teased.

"Haha. Funny."

OoOoOoOo

"No, Sid," Doug said astonished as we both dropped our luggage in surprise. Sid, Tracy and Alan's dad, was going to let us borrow his silver 1969 Mercedes Benz Cabriolet for the trip.

"Really?" Doug and I asked.

"Come on, we're family now," he replied.

"You sure? I mean, you love this car."

"Doug, it's just a car."

"A car that's better than that death trap you own," I muttered then smiled as Doug glared at me hearing my statement anyway. Sid did too if the small smile on his face said anything.

"Just make sure to put Armor All on the tires so the sand doesn't seep in," he finished.

"Absolutely. That's easy," we replied gaining a weird look from Sid. Everyone always gets creeped out by our 'freaky ass twin connection' as Phil kindly puts it.

"Oh, and, uh, don't let Alan drive because there's something wrong with him."

We all glanced at said man who was letting the yellow lab lick his mouth. "Ew."

"Understood."

"Oh and Phil either. I don't like him." I laughed at that. Not many guys do. Girls on the other hand...

"I will be the only driving this car. I promise," Doug said as I grabbed our luggage.

"Good," Sid replied, tossing Doug the keys. "Remember, what happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas."

We all laughed before Sid got serious. "Except for herpes. That shit'll come back with you."

OoOoOoOo

"And Phil says I take forever," I commented from the backseat as Doug, Alan and I waited for him in front of the high school.

"The bell just rang Addie," my brother replied though he had a smile on his face.

"Details Dougie. Details."

Alan cleared his throat and held his head down. "Do you have to park so close?"

"Yeah. What's wrong?" we asked confused.

"I shouldn't be here."

"Why is that Alan?" Doug asked.

"Please don't tell me," I mumbled.

"I'm not supposed to be within 200 ft of a school."

"What?"

"Or a Chuck E. Cheese."

"Jesus Alan!" I mumbled before my attention was pulled elsewhere.

"It's the weekend Budnick. I don't know you. You do not exist." That, ladies and gentlemen, would be Phil Wenneck, one of mine and Doug's best friends. He stopped and looked at the car in amazement as Doug and I laughed. "Shit," he smiled. "Nice car. I'm driving."

I caught his bag as he tossed it into the back before he jumped in, ignoring Doug's ramblings. "Shut up and drive before these nerds ask me another question."

"What a kind teacher you are," I said rolling my eyes though there was a smile on my lips.

"Hello Addie," Phil said with a smirk before turning his gaze to the front. "Who's this?"

"It's Alan. Tracy's brother," was the dual response.

"I met you, like, four times," Alan commented.

"Oh yeah. How you doing, man? And you two," Phil said pointing at Doug and me. "Stop it with that freaky ass thing you do."

"Sorry," we replied with a smile and a shrug.

OoOoOoOo

And there's chapter one! :) Hope you guys liked it. Was it alright? Tell me what you think!
