Best Friend's Little Brother
Chapter Two
"Okay guys, there's just one more song we need to do tomorrow. It's a new one for the rest of you, but it's real easy to learn so it shouldn't be a problem." Matt said, wiping sweat off of his face with the top of his t shirt.
"Another song? Come on Matt, we've already got fifteen down and I'm hot and tired and I could really go for something to drink." Tony whined from behind the drums.
"Then grab something to drink from your house. It's only like a ten yard walk man. Besides, Matt needs us to help him out here. Look at the song he wants us to learn. I think he's trying to make a move on a girl, and I for one am all for that. It would help him not be so gay if he had a girlfriend." Jon, the other guitarist, jokingly said with a big smile.
"Wait, I thought Matt was gay. When did he decided he liked the ladies?" Jason asked, picking up his bass guitar from where he'd laid it down before their short break.
"You guys, do me a favor and just shut the hell up." Matt playfully flipped his friends off before putting his guitar back over his head and turning on his amp again. "It's only one more song, and it's for a good cause, my love life. Which as you have all been gracious enough to point out, could use some serious help."
"I'll help you out, but only if you promise to never use the term love life again. That brought nothing but weird images to mind and I'd rather those thoughts weren't bouncing around my brain." Tony said as he settled back into his seat and picked up his drumsticks.
"Tony, I don't know if that was supposed to make sense, but I understood the important part and thanks." Matt handed the scribbled out chords and note changes he had written down to Jason and Jon and then counted them off and began. 'This should work out great' Matt thought to himself as he sang the song. 'I just hope it's still her favorite song and that Lizzie's not pulling some joke on me.'
When they finished Jon looked stunned and was staring at Matt. "What's up with you?" Jason asked him from across the room, throwing him a weird look.
"Oh, nothing. I was just pretending to be the girl Matt's singing to and I found myself wanting to get naked with him and it just scared me for a bit. Do you think you could sing me a love song Matt?"
Tony threw one of his drumsticks and smacked Jon in the back of the head with it. "You are one sick man, dude. Even joking that was just sick, although Matt's voice does the same thing to me whatever he's singing."
"Okay, I'm going now. You guys are not right in the head." Jason put his Bass into it's case and latched it shut as he spoke. "So what time are we meeting here to load everything up tomorrow?"
"Four. We have to be set up and ready to play at six, so I figured two hours is enough time to move the stuff over and get it set up. It's not like we're going all that far." Matt said, packing up his own stuff. His mind was still working out what he hoped he'd be doing after singing the song with Miranda the next night. If all went according to plan then he would actually have not just a girlfriend, but an older, beautiful, sexy girlfriend. He smiled to himself at the thoughts going through his brain.
"Four it is then. Oh and guys," Everyone looked over at Tony. "My mom said to not suck tomorrow, cause her club has a certain reputation to uphold."
"Your mom did not say that, shut up. Besides, we've played there a hundred times already, it's not like were going to start sucking all of the sudden after being great for so long." Matt rolled his eyes at Jon's replay and at Tony's original statement.
"It's a good thing you guys have talent, cause I don't think I could stand being around you without instruments." Matt ducked to miss Tony's other drumstick as he laughed at his own joke. "I'll see you guys tomorrow at school, losers." With that he left Tony's garage and started walking home. All the way back to his house, Matt kept dreaming up how great everything was going to be after tomorrow night.
