A/N: Thank you so much for all the love, dolls! You guys are the sweetest readers ever. How about some semi-sweet replies for all you lovely reviewers?

SMonkey6: I love how you actually express your feelings on what happened! Thank you so much! I'm glad you like all the details. I think some people get annoyed with them. It wouldn't be a very good love story if Zander actually died, right? Oh, congratulations on the call from Lulu!

AriZevie4EVER: Hey, an awesome story like yours deserved to be advertised a bit. Yay, someone who actually puts some thought into their reviews! Thank you so much for all the very generous words! That whole paragraph was so sweet that I can't even thank you enough! Literally, I posted a picture of your review to my Twitter because I wanted to publicly say how thankful I am. Again, thank you so much! By the way, please tell your sister's friend that I wish her lots of love and good luck!

LunarMoonWater: Aw, thanks! No, I'm probably the worst Zevie writer. No, the worst writer in general.

Again, thank you so much! Remember, December is Zevie Month! Be sure to write one-shots, update stories, post new stories, post Zevie pictures, and spread the word in any way you can! Okay, one more quick little thing. Please check out AriZevie4EVER'S story Stevie's True Love! Do you like Zevie and reading? If the answer to both of those questions is yes (which they are if you're reading this Zevie story), check it out! Plus, the author is such a sweetheart! Honestly, she deserves lots of love and support so please read it! Also, imagine Stevie in what Tori wore in the Freak the Freak Out Victorious episode! I don't know why, but I keep imagining Lulu in it. Since the setting for this chapter is a club, I think it's perfect. So, yeah. Anyways, I hope you guys enjoy!

I don't own How to Rock, any songs/singers in this, or the Footloose plot.

Once we walk into the club Under21, Zander slips his left hand into my right. Seeing no reason to object, I keep my hand there and smile while he's leading us through the crowd of teens dancing. I link my left arm with Kacey's right while Kevin has his arm around her. I turn my head around to see Grace with her hand on Kevin's left shoulder while her left hand was gripping to Nelson's. Basically, we're all somehow connected. I laugh at that thought as Zander stops in front of a table. I sit down next to him on the white leather couch since he's still holding my hand. Grace sits down on my left, Nelson sits on the chair beside her, Kevin sits in the chair across from him, and Kacey sits down on her boyfriend's lap.

Zander turns to me, smirks, and asks over the blaring music, "Ready to put your kicks to work?"

I laugh and nod. He stands up, making me stand, and hops all the way over the small table in front of us. I roll my eyes smiling and step onto the table. Instead of letting me jump down myself, Zander wraps his arm around the back of my thighs and picks me up. He sets me down on the floor, takes my hand again, and leads me to the dance floor.

I turn my head back to everyone else when he's not looking and see Grace making a heart with her hands while the guys are gushing like girls. I laugh and turn back to Zander when we stop in the middle of the dance floor. I decided to just enjoy the night and let loose. (A/N: Imagine how Ariel dances with Ren in the remake. You can search 'Footloose 2011 Your Father Is Here Clip' on YouTube.) I turn around so my back is pressed against his chest and dance in a totally Brewster-inappropriate way. When I feel Zander's breath on my neck, I smile and turn around so I face him again. I see a smile full of interest and shock.

He questions, "You dance?"

I nod and answer, "Two years on a hip-hop dance team!"

He chuckles and spins me around, making me laugh. Zander stops and pulls me closer so our faces are only centimeters apart. We stand there, feeling each other's breaths on our lips, while everyone else around us dances and sings along to the music.

Just as both of us lean in, I hear Kevin back at the table whine, "Come on, Kacey! Please! Why are you so against singing karaoke?"

I pull away, sigh, and turn around to see Kacey shaking her head. I look back at Zander and shout, "I'll be right back!"

He nods, lets go of my hand, and walks over to the DJ. I squeeze through all the teens dancing until I reach the table.

"Kevin, mind if I steal Kacey away for a moment?"

He shrugs with a look of frustration and exhaustion on his face. I grab Kacey's wrist, pull her up from his lap, and drag her around the club.

When we reach the bar, I say, "What is your problem? We drove 2 hours out of Brewster just to get here, and you're being a total troll. Kevin always begs you to let loose but you never do. Are you against singing or something?"

She looks down at her high heels and covers her face with her hair. I hear her murmur something, but I can't understand since the music is drowning out her voice.

"What?"

Kacey looks up and states, "I can't sing."

I furrow my eyebrows and reply, "What do you mean you can't sing? Everyone can sing."

She responds, "Of course everyone can sing, but I'm not any good at it."

I scoff, "What are you talking about? Grace showed me some old videos of you two singing Hannah Montana and Cheetah Girls songs."

Kacey laughs and responds, "We were just joking around. Grace is an amazing singer, but I'm not."

I shake my head and drag her back around the club.

Kacey whines, "Where are we going?"

I take her up some a black staircase which leads to the second floor of the club. I see a woman who looks about 30-something years-old and some other teens. In the center of the small crowd is a karaoke machine with the lyrics to Hit The Lights by Selena Gomez running across the screen.

I face Kacey and state, "You're going to work up your confidence."

She looks at the karaoke machine, back at me, and questions, "You're going to leave me in daycare while you go out and party?"

I smirk, nod, and jog down the stairs as Kacey groans. When I reach the bottom step, I see the guys and Grace on stage. Grace was adjusting the microphone stand at the center of the stage, Nelson was pressing some keys behind the keyboard to left, and Kevin was lightly tapping his drumsticks on the red drums behind Grace.

Zander walks up to me smiling and jokes, "Ready to rock?"

He pulls my bass out from behind his back. I laugh, grab the neck of the bass with my left hand, and let him lead me with my right. When we get to the stage, Zander hops on first then picks me up again. I laugh as he sets me down and walk over to Nelson at his keyboard. I strap my bass on when I reach him and adjust the microphone stand in front of me.

I turn around to Nelson and ask, "What song are we doing?"

He answers, "You should know, you wrote it."

I furrow my eyebrows, making him sigh. He puts his hands on his keys and starts playing a familiar tune. After rewinding it in my mind a few times, I finally remember the song.

"How do you know that song?"

Nelson shrugs and explains, "Zander found your song book so before we picked you up back in Brewster, he made us memorize every note and lyrics so we can surprise you."

I bite my lip, failing to hide my smile, and question, "He really did that?"

He nods and looks over to Grace. When I see the drool dripping out of his mouth, I laugh and turn my head over to the other side of the stage. Zander had on the club's red electric guitar and was tuning it.

I smile down at my bass as Grace announces, "Hi! So, we're going to do an original song written by our amazing bass player Stevie."

Grace and I smile at each other before she turns back to the microphone. Kevin counts us down, making all of us start playing our instruments. Soon, Grace was singing the lyrics to my song Only You Can Be You. Every time I sang my background parts, I'd notice Zander look at me through the corner of my eye. When it got to the rap part, Grace handed the mike to Kevin who hopped up from around his drums and walked over to the front of the stage. At the end of the rap, I saw him point to Kacey who was watching at the karaoke spot. I smile as Kevin runs back to his drums and Grace starts singing again. Near the end of the song, Grace holds out her arms, gesturing for us to join her. I stop playing my bass as all of us walk over to the front of the stage. I put my right arm around her shoulders while she swings her left arm around mine. I put my left arm around Nelson, still singing my background parts. While I'm singing, I feel an arm around my waist. I look down and see a hand on the left side of my hip. I lean forward and look at Zander. We smile at each other before I lean back and sing my last part.


"Have I told you that you have mad vocal skills?"

I turn around from the bar and see Zander. I smirk and reply, "Yes, actually."

He chuckles, checks his watch, and states, "We better leave now if we want to get back to Brewster before midnight."

I nod and let him lead me back to our table by hand. After we tell them we have to leave, everyone gathers up their stuff and follows us out.

When we reach my rusty yellow buggy in the parking lot, I reach my hand out for the drivers door but Zander pulls me back by my wrist saying, "Due to the fact that you don't legally have a license, I'll drive us back to Brewster."

I laugh and run over to the passengers side.


By the time we get closer to Kevin, Nelson, and Kacey's neighborhood in Brewster, I pound the heels of my shoes on the dashboard to the beat of So What by P!nk. Zander, Nelson, and Grace sing along while Kevin hits his hands against the top of my chair like his drums and Kacey sits on his lap quietly. We pull up to Kacey's house by the time the song ends.

Nelson opens the door and hops out saying, "Kevin and I can walk back to my house from here."

Grace follows saying, "Daddy knows I'm sleeping over at Kacey's."

Once the four are out, I see Nelson and Kevin run down the street as Kacey and Grace sneak over to the backyard. Zander backs out of the driveway and exits the neighborhood. I turn up the radio when I hear What the Hell by Avril Lavigne and sing along.

Zander laughs and asks, "Hey, remember yesterday night at Gravity? When I said I thought you wanted to kiss me?"

Knowing where he was going with this, I stop singing, smile, and respond, "I'll kiss you someday."

He raises his eyebrows. "Someday?"

I nod and look out the window. "Yeah, someday."

This was somewhat of a filler chapter. Heads up, in the next chapter, prepare to yell at whatever you're reading this story on because you are going to hate Molly. Be sure to review your thoughts!(:
