Disclaimer: I do not own School of Rock, or any of the characters mentioned in this fic. I do own the new baby though.

A/N: I have a co-writer in this fic, star-goddess-sunaru. She'll write a couple chapters later on!

411: Freddy and Katie are both 29. The 2 were wed about 6 months ago. School of Rock broke up 4 years ago. The band still gets together every 2 months to jam, though. I got the inspiration for this fic from the song With Arms Wide Open, by Creed.(I just wanted to let you know!)

Katie flew down the stairs to Freddy, sitting on the couch. He was tapping lightly on the table when he heard Katie fly down the stairs.

"Katie, what's the matter?" he asked her nervously.

"Ohmigod! Freddy you'll never believe this!" Katie said between large gasps.

"What?!? What?!?"

"We...I..."

"Sit down and think about what you need to tell me," Freddy said as he patted the cushion next to him.

Katie sat down and took one deep breath to calm herself down.

"I'm pregnant, Freddy. You are going to be a father!"

Freddy just stared at her, wide-eyed. "What?" He wasn't sure if he was dreaming or not. "You...you're...pregnant?" he stammered.

"YES!!!!" Katie shouted as she wrapped her arms around him.

Freddy felt indescribable. His feelings were a mixture of fear, excitement, and love. He and Katie had talked bout having a child and finally decided to about 3 weeks ago. At the time that was what he wanted, he wanted someone he could raise to be just as cool as he was. (Yeah, he still has little egotistic moments.) Now he couldn't get his head around the fact that in 9 months he was going to be someone's dad! He had to tell Zack. He picked up the phone and called his best pal.

"Hello?"

"Hey, Zack. It's Freddy."

"What's up dude?"

"Katie just told me something that will change my life forever."

"Well...what did she say?" Zack questioned.

"I'mgoingtobeadad."

"What? I didn't get that."

"I'm going to be someone's dad."

"NO WAY!!!!!! Congratulations, dude!"

"Thanks." Freddy said in monotone.

"You don't sound so thrilled."

"Yeah, I'm really happy but I'm also scared out of my mind! I'm going to be responsible for a life! I don't know if I can handle that."

"Freddy, you need to calm down and just think about how much you and Katie will love the kid. You will be an awesome father! You give me advice and stuff all the time! I listen to you and everything turns out okay!"

"Yea but..."

Zack cut him off, "But what? You have nothing to worry about!"

"Alright dude, you were a big help but I have to go."

"I'll talk to you again at practice. It's on Saturday, don't forget!"

"I won't. I gotta go, see you Saturday man. Thanks for the advice."

"See you dude. I'm glad I could help."

Freddy hung up. Zack was right if he was as good a best friend as he was father than he would have nothing to worry about. He should talk to Katie though. She should know that he is a little scared.
