A/N: Thank you so much for all the lovely reviews, dolls! All of them were so incredibly sweet to read! Okay, I just want to point out something that some of you might find confusing. The gang are all 16 or 17! You might be thinking, "But Zander and Kevin are on tour with Molly. Shouldn't they adults?" Remember that they're both orphans. In this story, let's just pretend that if you're around that age then you don't need a guardian. Pretend being the key word. We'll say Nelson's 17, too. Then all the girls are 16. Yeah, that makes enough sense. Okay, how about some replies?

Darknite47: I didn't really have a title for the chapter, but then I remembered that it included Mr. March sliding the window down so I thought, "Oh, hey, why not use that?" Yeah, Lulu's last name is spelt Antariksa.

LunarMoonWater: Aw, thank you! Nope, everyone can top me.

xEmilyHeartsx: Where are the new chapters of Kisses and Falling In, young lady?!

Remember to write one-shots, update your stories, post new stories, post Zevie pictures/videos, and spread the word throughout all of December because it's Zevie month! Alright, I originally wrote this as the chapter where Zander and Stevie meet, but then I thought, "Why not introduce Stevie and Nelson first?" Some of y'all might be a bit bored with no Zevie, but I promise that it's coming soon! Hope you enjoy!

I don't own How to Rock or Beautiful by Christina Aguilera.

[Stevie]

"Every day is so wonderful. Then suddenly, it's hard to breathe. Now and then, I get insecure. From all the pain, I'm so ashamed."

I stop strumming my guitar, put the pick under the strings on the neck, and grab my yellow hardcovered songbook from the foot of my bed. After setting my guitar on it's side on the ground, I grab my blue pen from my night stand, lay back on my pillows, and lean my songbook against my blanket-covered thighs. I open the ripped journal to the page I left off on and crease the middle so it stays still. I quietly groan when I realize that it's one of the last few pages in the book but shake my head, focusing on the lyrics running through my mind.

I uncap the pen and scribble down the lyrics I was just singing on the first line on the page. When I finish writing down the four sentences, I squint my eyes at the wide space on the top where a title should be. Sighing, I stick my pen in between the pages as a bookmark and close the book. I stare at the cover and tilt my head. Written all over the normally clean yellow cover were the lyrics to my first original song, Only You Can Be You.

A ping from my iPhone interrupts my reading. I grab the owl-cased phone from under my pillow and unlock it. After scrolling through a few pages, I see my Twitter app with a red notification on it. I tap it, taking me to my homepage. Seeing a blue light under my 'Connect' icon, I click it and wait as the page refreshes. Finally, I see all of my notifications. As usual, it's just a bunch of people that follow, tweet, RT, or favorite my lyrics. I scroll down all of them mindlessly until I see one tweet I'm tagged in that catches my eye. I click it and squint my eyes since I'm too lazy to get my glasses.

notjustashadow Thanks for the follow! Even though I don't know what you look like, I'm sure you're just like your lyrics. Beautiful.

I smile while biting my bottom lip as I favorite and RT it. An idea pops into my mind before I can click the Reply icon. I toss my phone to the other side of the bed, open up my songbook to the page with the uncapped pen, pick it up, and start writing in the wide title space on the top.

You're Beautiful

Repeating the words in my mind, I scrunch my nose at how funny it sounds. I scribble the pen across the first word then reread it. Better.

Beautiful

"Steves, breakfast! Kacey's here!"

I sigh at mom's very loud voice outside of my door and shut my book with the pen in it. I crawl out of my blanket and hop off of the bed. After sticking the book under my mattress, I walk over to my closet. Picking the first few things that I see, I pull out a pair of red skinny jeans, knee-high black boots, a black tank top, and a black leather vest. (A/N: How To Rock Cee Lo ending scene outfit!) As soon as I finish putting on my outfit for the day, I rush out of my bedroom, down the hall, and down the long staircase. Standing at the bottom, I see the back of none other than Kacey Simon. Hearing my footsteps, she turns around and sees me jogging towards her.

"Stevie!"

When I reach the bottom step, I laugh at Kacey's open arms. "Kace, you know I don't hug."

She rolls her eyes and holds out her right fist. I smile and fist pump with her. Before I can retreat my fist, Kacey grabs my wrist, pulls me in, and wraps her arms around my back. I groan in her shoulder but hug back. Finally, we pull away laughing like crazy.

I grin at her and ask, "Do you want to stay for breakfast?"

Kacey exclaims, "Of course!"

I laugh and lead her to the dining room. When we enter it, I see my dad sitting at his normal spot at the head of the table while Nelson is to his left. By the looks of it, they're trying to make a card tower. Right as Nelson is about to add the final card, I walk over to him and blow on the tower, making the whole thing collapse.

Very childishly, he yells, "Big bully!"

Kacey and I laugh while Nelson and my dad both pout and lean back in their chairs. Since we have a very long dining table, we walk over to the side across from Nelson and sit down in the middle, far from everyone else.

Sitting down to my right, Kacey questions, "Why does your family have this big of a dining table for only 4 people?"

I shrug and answer, "I think it's because my dad likes to have dinner with a lot of his clients."

She nods just as my mom comes in, still with bed-head and in her Batman pajamas. She sits down at the other end of the table and buries her head in her arms, trying to catch some more sleep.

Being friendly, Kacey greets, "Hi, Mrs. Benson."

Still not looking up, my mom responds, "Kacey, what did I tell you about calling me that?"

"It makes you sound old. Sorry, um, Samantha?"

Instead of correcting her that she goes by Sam, my mom falls into a deep sleep. I laugh and grab a pancake off one of the plates in the middle while Kacey pours some orange juice into her glass.

Getting over his fallen card castle, Dad sits up straighter and questions, "So, Kacey, how long are you going to be in town?"

She takes a sip of her juice before explaining, "I can't tour without my mom because she's my rock, but since she's a month into her pregnancy, my manager thinks I should take a break from touring. For now, I'm just going to perform shows around California."

I smile and exclaim, "That's great! We can hang out more!"

Kacey smiles and we fist pump again. After my dad drags my mom up to their room for a proper place to sleep, Nelson scoots down the table so he's more in front of us.

"Hey, don't make plans for tonight because Dad's having guest over for dinner."

I nod and take a bite out of my pancake.

Before drinking from her glass, Kacey questions, "Who's coming over for dinner?"

I shrug and answer, "Molly Garfunkel."

Kacey widens her eyes and chokes on her juice. I take the glass out of her hand, put it on the table, and pat her back.

Once she calms down, Nelson tells her, "You can't hate her for too long. She's about to join the family."

Her shocked expression turning to anger, Kacey yells, "What?!"

I nod and explain, "My dad's her new manager."

Kacey groans and leans back in her chair.

[Zander]

I stick my key in the lock and turn it, causing a click from the door. I pull my key out, put it in my pocket, and put my hand back on the doorknob.

Kevin must've noticed how hesitant I am because he asks, "Are you okay?"

I turn my head to him and explain, "I haven't been here since my parents died."

He nods and pats my back. Sighing, I turn back to the door and open it. Kevin and I pick up our luggage and walk into the apartment that's been vacant for 7 years. (A/N: Picture CeCe's apartment from Shake It Up!)

Setting his stuff on the window bed, he says, "I can't believe they let us keep our apartments even after our parents died."

I shrug and put my bag on the other end of the couch responding, "I'm pretty sure our dads and the owner of the building were high school friends. I guess that's why."

Kevin nods and states, "Well, I better go up to my apartment."

I jog over to the front door and open it for him, but when I look back over to Kevin, I see him opening the window.

"Um, Kevin?"

He shrugs. "What? This way is quicker."

I laugh as he slings his bag over his shoulder, climbs onto the fire escape, and walks up the steps that lead to his apartment one story up. I shut the door and walk back over to my stuff. Pushing all of it to the side, I flop down lazily and prop my feet onto the untouched coffee table. I pull out my iPhone, unlock it, and go to my Twitter app. After clicking the 'Home' icon, I see all of the unread tweets from the people I'm following. The very latest one is from notjustashadow, tweeted 2 minutes ago.

"I am beautiful, no matter what they say. Words can't bring me down. I am beautiful in every single way."

I smile at her new lyrics, but then realize something.

I run over to the still open window, stick my head out, and shout, "Kevin, lets go! We have to pick up Grace, Molly, and Mr. March from their hotel so we can have dinner at Freddie Benson's!"

Yay, a long chapter! Feel like this one had a lot of run-on sentences though...So, Zevie will for sure meet in the next one. Hope you guys liked this! Notice the iCarly thing going on? I keep hearing that Stevie is Seddie's child, so why not? Let me give you some info on Nelson and Stevie.

Stevie- Her parents were killed when she was young so she was adopted by Freddie and Sam Benson. Her father is a famous manager for lots of stars so Stevie, unlike Zander, is pretty known. She's not an actress or singer, just a songwriter. Her best friend is the famous singer Kacey Simon. If you remember Kacey's tweet from the first chapter, Stevie's the friend that she's visiting in Brewster. If you haven't already caught on, Stevie's also secretly notjustashadow/Perfectly Imperfect. Basically, Stevie likes to keep it real and not get caught up in the fame.

Nelson- He's Stevie's adopted brother. After his parents were found in capable of raising him, the Benson family took him in. Nelson's the only one, other than Kacey and partially Zander, that knows that Stevie is a songwriter. He loves to play the keyboard, often to the tune of one of his sister's songs. Considering he's a bit socially awkward, Nelson doesn't have very many friends. It's just him, Stevie, and his video games. Good thing that he's going to me Kevin soon, huh?
