Sorry, this chapter is short, but I think it makes up for the lack of length! Hope you like it, and I hope I didn't lose my fans, I only got like half the reviews I usually do last chapter...review if you read it please!!!
It was about a week after the incident in Cleveland. Myron Cope was in jail. Freddy's spatula bruises were all gone, Zack had almost enough tape to make a good documentary, and there were still three more cities on the tour. Detroit, Indianapolis, and Chicago, in that order.
After their Detroit show, the band stayed in the city for another day, just to rest. They had a big, ritzy hotel where Summer used her manager expertise to book the band a whole floor just to themselves. It had 16 rooms, one for each of them (Dewey counts!.) There was also a room any of them could use, decorated all marble and gilt, which had a super luxurious bathtub in it. The bathtub was more like a hot tub, huge and circular, but it was surrounded by frosted glass. One of the glass panels was the sliding door to get in. It was the perfect place to relax. Which is why Summer Hathaway decided to get a relaxing bath early that morning.
She rolled out of bed at 7 a.m. sharp, and put the freshly laundered hotel robe on. Yawning, she grabbed her handheld CD player with headphones, popped an Aerosmith CD in, and trudged across the hall to the bathtub to start her day.
Ten minutes later, steamy water and strawberry bubbles surrounded Summer, who had her CD player on the shelf on the side of the tub and the headphones turned up very loud to "Crazy." Sighing and sinking very low in the water, Summer shut her eyes and planned for a relaxing hour-long bath. Pity she hadn't learned by now that 'relaxing' was far from anything that would happen on this tour!
At 7:00 in the morning, Zack and Freddy were situated on Zack's bed, watching over the film they'd attained so far.
"Man, this is some good stuff!" Freddy said through yawns. "It's entirely too early to be doing this though." When the tape was done, Freddy couldn't take it anymore. "Zack, sorry dude, I'm going back to bed. Wake me up before lunch though."
"Alright, man, whatever." Zack said, as Freddy left to go back to dreaming of whatever the heck that kid dreamed about. Zack realized he was in need of a wake up call too. Leaving his camera on his bed, he undressed and put just a towel around his waist. He decided he needed a bath. A very luxurious bath.
The moment Zack left the room to go to the bath, which was at the other end of the hall, Freddy laughed and entered Zack's room again. Zack had left his camera on, so Freddy smirked to himself as he picked it up and prepared to get his revenge on Zack. Silently exiting the room, Freddy captured Zack on the film and followed 10 feet behind him, not knowing that what he was about to get was much more than he bargained for.
By now, Summer had all the water turned completely off, and all was silent in the bath room. Sure, all the rooms had normal showers, but this was so much better.
Zack was now just outside the bath, pausing right before going in. He decided to take his towel off once he was inside, just in case. Freddy was still taping him, so good move on Zack's unknowing part. What happened next almost gave all three band members heart attacks.
Freddy heard the swivel of Zack sliding the door open preceded by an ear shattering scream that can't even be described in words. The scene proceeded to Freddy laughing madly as he backpedaled faster than he had ever done in track (yes track was the sport Freddy participated in, as it required little skill other than endurance and agility.) Zack was running almost as fast as Freddy, screaming at Freddy for filming and apologizing to Summer at the same time. She had whipped the robe back on in record time before screaming insults at the top of her lungs and chasing both boys down the hall with her now wet and ruined CD player.
The resonating sounds proceeded to wake up everyone on that floor, and probably many people above and below them. And it certainly was a scene to wake up to! Needless to say, Zack's bruises from this encounter with an angry female weren't even gone by the time their tour wrapped up. A bruised ego lasts a lifetime. When Zack got the tape back from Freddy, who was giggling madly, he just sighed and shook his head. "Man Freddy, you think my teacher's really gonna go for this?" The only reply he got was Freddy trying to nod solemnly before bursting into a fresh fit of giggles.
I have the next, and last, two chapters planned. Anyone want to find out what Zack does to get revenge on Freddy, or what Zack's teacher thinks of the documentary? Read and review to find out! ;)
