Chapter Two - Losing Control
Marco got home, to his new house, within a few minutes. No one but him was home yet so he had time to do what he wanted, he went over to the fridge and grabbed a cream soda from the bottom shelf. He walked down the hall, up the stairs and into his room where he sat down on his bed and laid back.
After finally convincing Freddie she had to go Katie raced down the street which she saw Marco go down. Huge houses like her own lined the edge of the street as she raced down it trying to catch up with Marco but by time she got him in sight he was already entering his house. But she couldn't just give in, she needed to know what was the answer to the mystery the new guy was carrying. The whole day she hadn't heard him say a word and he practically avoided all human contact. So she walked up to the door of his house and rang the doorbell as she sweated from the thought of the two of them alone.
The doorbell rang and Marco rose from his bed now wearing no shirt and a pair of black jeans he had changed into right away when he got home. He walked down the stairs and to the door he opened it and saw the girl from earlier standing there, "Hello?" he said confused by the visitor's appearance at his house.
Katie almost fainted when she saw Marco without his shirt, his air was different also, and it was matted down so that the colored tips made it look as though he had rainbow colored hair. "Hi, I was just wondering if we could hang out for a while. So can we?" Katie asked still trying to catch her breath.
"Um, I guess. Come on in." Marco said politely leading Katie up to his room before sitting on his bed. "Well my parents aren't home so we can play whatever music we want." He said passing his CD case over to Katie.
Katie caught the case in both her hands then opened it and starting to look through. She passed all sorts of rock CD's from Rancid to AFI to Led Zeppelin and Cream. When she flipped to a blank CD with the words 'frEEk - Invading Me' she looked at the words for a few seconds before pulling the CD out of the case and into the player sitting on a shelf.
A slow base line started playing, then a sweet strumming from a electric guitar and eventually a drum line, while the whole time a key board played a sugar sweet melody. After all the instruments played together a voice which made your heart melt came on, "Years ago, we didn't even know each other but now we can't bare not seeing each other." The lines were full of emotion and Katie smiled from ear to ear as she heard them but suddenly and hand came up and the song stopped.
Marco was standing up, taking the CD out of the player. Katie didn't get it a minute ago his face looked so dreamy but now it looked like someone had just insulted him. "What are you doing? I thought you said I could play whatever I want!" Katie asked confused.
Marco looked at her, his once baby blue eyes were now a dark blue which revealed that he was hurting inside. "Except that or any of the ones that are by frEEk!" he said his voice shaky as though his heart had been cut into pieces.
"I don't get it, what's wrong?" Katie asked her voice almost sounding hurt.
"I don't want to talk about it!"
"Well I do!"
"Fine I'm frEEk. Yea, I'm the rocker who left his talent behind to be the guy his parents wanted him to be." Marco or frEEk said throwing the CD at the wall.
"You mean that was you?" Katie asked looking at him in disbelief.
Marco nodded, "Yea I sing and play bass but my parents wanted me to go into classical." He replied moving his head towards the cello in the corner of his room.
Katie looked at and frowned, "Well if you ever go back to the bass you should come to the School of Rock sometime." She looked at her watch and her jaw almost dropped at the time when she saw it was already 4: 00. "Oh I'm so sorry but I have to leave, I'm already late to practice!"
