Greg and Rowley were best friends going through the same problems. Greg was having trouble with girls as much as a way to make millions. Rowley was trying to make a career in music. Greg eventually came along with Rowley and the two built a recording studio in Rowley's basement.
They came up with good beats and Greg was starting to like it. Rowley was happy but not satisfied. He wanted to star t his own group.
"You know," he said. "I really enjoy this. I mean I really enjoy this."
"But…," Greg said.
"But, it's not good enough," Rowley said. "I mean I want start a rock 'n' roll band. I don't wanna sit here generating this shit with a computer. I like rock, Greg. ROCK!"
Greg saw Rowley's point but stated, "We don't have instruments and we can't use Rodrick's because he'll kill us."
Rowley then responded, "Then we'll to have to buy our own."
Greg said, "How?"
Rowley responded, "Christmas is coming up. Why don't we ask for some?"
Greg agreed to and went home. Rowley stayed in the basement looking up an instrument he wanted.
Rowley's POV
Greg left so I stayed in the basement looked up a set of Pearl drums I wanted. How hard could drums really be?
I just hope Greg finds an instrument he can learn.
Greg's POV
I left Rowley's to go check out a guitar I heard about. It was the 2014 Gibson Les Paul Classic in sea-foam green that caught me. Problem though was it was 2000 bucks.
I don't know if I can convince my parents to get this for me.
I asked my dad and he said, "We'll see."
Third Person POV
On the day before Christmas break Greg broke down what happened to Rowley. Rowley went through the same process
Rowley went home only to discover his parents in the car. Heather Hills was nowhere to be seen. Rowley got suspicious. He asked his dad, "Where's Heather and where are you going."
His father replied, "Your mother and I have decided to leave you home alone. We believe you are mature enough."
Rowley couldn't believe his luck. He said his goodbye and went inside. He called up Greg and asked him to come over.
Greg's POV
I get over to Rowley's house only to have him tell me his parents think he's mature enough to be home alone.
I can't believe I'm saying this, but I'm finally proud of Rowley. We get to the basement where the studio is only to find a sheet hanging up next to the recording booth saying "Rowley's Christmas Gift."
Rowley's POV
When Greg and I head to the basement to the studio, there was a sheet over a part of the basement from the haunted house. It had a sign that read "Rowley's Christmas Gift."
I decided not to look and Greg looked at me with approval. He sometimes was bad and mischievous, but he is mature enough not to spoil any surprises.
