Band Practice Surprise

Martin and the rest of his band were hanging out in their usual garage owned by the drummer Annie's family. They'd ended for lunch supplied by the group sound man Jamie, Annie's twin brother. "I hope you all like pizza. Mum ordered to many for the rest of the family again and said we could have it."

"You really need to teach her how to used that app. This happens every time she orders take away." Viola laughed as she finished tuning her bass guitar.

"Or, you know don't? It means we get free take out. Think of that Cesario." Martin's fellow guitarist AJ, spoke up causing Viloa to roll her eyes at the use of her nickname.

"Just because I dress like my brother does not mean you can call me that." She answered back, walking over to the table where Jamie had put the pizzas.

"Guys, if we could try not to kill each other please?" Martin rolled his eyes as he picked up a slice of his favourite pizza. He was about to start eating when his phone started to ring. Looking down, he saw that it was from Tracy Island and after making his excuses, stepped outside and took the call. "Hello?"

"Hey Martin, it's Scott. How you been?"

"Yeah I've been great. How's Caitlin?"

"She's fine don't worry. Actually we were wondering if you out can bring your instruments when you come over or her birthday. Asumming that's not too much trouble?"

"Yeah, no that'll be fine. I think the others wanted to anyway." Martin smiled knowing that his best friend was ok.

"Alright then, I'll see you in a couple of months then?"

"Yeah I'll see you then. Can you tell Caitlin I said hi?"

Scott chuckled from the other side of the line, "Yeah i can tell her that. I'll see you soon."

"OK then. Thanks. Bye"

"Bye" the line went dead.

Martin took a deep breath before going back into the garage. The rest of the band turned to look at him.

"Who was it?" AJ asked a little concerned.

"Caitlin's new family. They asked if if we could bring our band stuff with us when we go for her birthday.''

"Oh ok. How is she anyway?" Annie asked.

"You'll all be glad to know that she's doing good and is looking forward to seeing everyone again."

"Who's looking forward to seeing everyone?" a voice from the doorway asked. Everyone turned around to see they're keyboardist, Layla.

"Oh hey! How long have you been standing there?" AJ jumped up to hug his girlfriend.

"Long enough," she replied kissing him.

Martin rolled his eyes at the two lovebirds, although part of him wished that someone could see him that way. Collecting his thoughts, Martin filled her in on the plan. Just like everyone else, she was completely on board with it.

"Well if we only have a couple of months, shouldn't we start practicing?"

A/N

So sorry for the delay, A levels don't leave much time free. I can't promise that the next chapter will be up by Saturday but it should be by the end of next week.

I hope you guys have enjoyed meeting the band, don't worry if you don't get the Viola/Cesario thing. I don't expect you to.

Anyway see you next time
