mellowyellow36- thanks! Not too cute, you think?
SarahLou- Wow! That was such a sweet review! I'm so flattered. And your stories are really good.
t dot chick- thanks for reviewing!
BrokenSunshine- Great name and thanks for the review!
Swimmerkitti- Please don't tell me you're bored of it already! I think there'll be more chapters, but it will end sometime, as I am running low on the creative juices.
Nanners-77- Thanks to one of my most faithful reviewers! I am glad, as always, that you liked it!
wyverna- Just please don't get used to it!
Hermione Radcliffe Go Michael- I am trying to get longer chapters, I think the next few are longer? Maybe?WiccaSweep- I know you don't mean that! Sorry about Frankie. How can you read this without seeing the whole film? Outrage.
tmrspromise- That's ok. I thought I must have made a huge mistake. We must be excellently behaved in my school, I guess, haha! (WiccaSweep, Dibble and Buffy2, don't say anything) Thanks anyway for the nice review!
Scary-Girly- OK!
ashley09- I think put that they were between 9th and 10th grades. I'm trying to do one or two chapters per grade, but it's a little messed up. The last three chapters will probably be all in the last year of school, but I was trying to keep it evened out.
Freddy'sGirl01- Everyone keeps saying that! It's ok, though. I'm trying to draw chapters out for a bit more, but I don't want to kill ideas, like I did sometimes when I was trying to think of ideas and I dragged them out, so I didn't want to put them in.
bLuEhEaVeN79- Freddy's in good old-fashioned denial! Thanks very much.
Dibble- Thanks for reviewing! (Happy now?)
Disclaimer: I still don't own School of Rock. Nor do I own the song 'Gay Bar' by Electric Six. Just so we're clear. Chapter 7: - And so they fell from the sky... and climbed back up againAnd on the opposite page was yet another first day photo. First day of high school. Yet another first day spent running away from fans. Katie was looking away in the picture, probably because Freddy had been pressed up against her back window and there'd been girls running around her front lawn. But for Summer and Zack, the most traumatising thing had happened a week after the start of term.
FLASHBACK
Most of the band sat round two tables in the diner. They were out after a show. Everyone was chatting about school, teachers, and in Freddy's case, pizza.
'You know what my favourite topping is?' he asked. 'Pepperoni.'
Katie looked in his ear.
'Wow, you know you can almost see right through!'
Meanwhile Summer and Zack were having an argument.
'What do you mean you don't like 'Memory'?' she asked.
'I didn't say that I didn't like it. I just said that it's not the greatest piece of music ever written, that's all.' Zack said calmly.
'But it's our song!' she cried.
'I just – really?'
'You're so insensitive sometimes, Zachary.' She carried on. 'You know this is the most stressful time of the year for me, and you had to bring this up.'
'But I didn't!' Zack said helplessly.
'What, so now I'm wrong?' she shot back.
'Don't answer that,' Frankie mouthed to Zack.
'Well? Am I?' she repeated.
The table fell silent. Zack and Summer, the glorious couple of the summer, were arguing.
'You know what my favourite topping is?' Freddy spoke loudly. Everyone turned to stare at him.
'Oh, I already did that?' he asked.
Katie tried to rescue the situation.
'Look! Pizza's here!' she said pointing.
'Pepperoni, pepperoni, pepperoni...' Freddy crossed his fingers.
'Why are you so weird?' she questioned him as he ate a piece of pizza happily.
'It's all part of the Freddy charm.' He grinned. She sighed.
'You have cheese on your chin.'
Summer and Zack managed to ignore each other for all of... six minutes, before Summer broke down.
'Zack, I'm so sorry! You know this is a stressful time of year for me. Especially because it's high school. I don't know what I would do if I hadn't revised last year's topics during the holidays. You know how badly I adjust to change. We have so many new things to learn, like maps of the school, and timetables, combinations for lockers, rooms for classes, names and subjects of all the key members of the faculty...' she suddenly realised that Zack was sniggering quietly.
'Are you even listening?' she asked him. He continued laughing to himself.
'Zack? ZACK?' He looked up.
'I'm sorry, Summer, what was that?'
'What were you laughing about?' she demanded.
He pulled out earphones. 'This song called 'Gay Bar'. It's hilarious!'
'Did you not hear me say anything?' she asked.
'No... but I assume that you talking to me means that you're no longer angry at me?' he said hopefully.
She smiled.
'Of course I'm not angry at you.'
'Aaah.' The girls at the table sighed simultaneously.
'How could I be, cuddle muffin?'
The girls' smiles froze as they left Summer and Zack to it. Katie turned back toward the table, glad that they hadn't broken up.
'Wasn't that sweet- Hey! Who ate all the pizza?'
