Hi everyone. Thanks for all of the reviews you gave me!! I love them all. I responded to them at the end of the chapter. Keep reading and reviewing. Some poaple read the story and don't review, I'm sure, but just tell me if you like it or not. But I'll be quiet, and get on to the disclaimer and the story.
Disclaimer: I don't own School Of Rock. Like I've already said, I just own the DVD and the soundtrack. I wish I owned the drummer, and Orlando Bloom, but I don't have them. I wonder how I could get them…

Chapter 3
The Unexpected Phone Call
Over at Katie's house, the girls were doing each other's hair and painting their nails. They were talking and laughing as if they had been friends forever. Kristi thought that these girls were going to be her best friends. They were so nice, kind and funny. She had never really had best friends that had never turned their back on her. So she decided to ask what they thought of her, friendship wise.
"Hey, you guys, I want to ask you something."
"What?" Marta asked as she finished braiding Summer's hair.
"If you considered me your best friend, that's all."
"Of course, we do. You are really cool and fun," Katie smiled.
"And you are good at the guitar," Marta added.
Kristi smiled. She finished painting her toes hot pink as Katie's mom came in with a bowl of popcorn. "I thought you girls might be hungry. I'll bring up some soda in a few minutes. Then I want you to get to bed by, let's say, two in the morning."
The girls smiled and said, "Sounds good."
After the girls finished doing their hair and drinking their sodas, they all got flashlights and turned off the lights.
"Alright ladies, lets play "Truth or Dare'," Katie said, holding her flashlight up to her chin. "But first, we have to take an oath. Everyone's right hand up-repeat this pledge after me: I solemnly swear that these secrets stay in this room. If I tell them to anyone, living, dead, or unreal, I will suffer the consequences, which this group will decide." Everyone said the pledge and waited for Katy to decide who would go first. "Ok, I think that Kristi, since she is new, should decide who to question. Take it away girl."
Kristi smiled and put her flashlight up to her chin. "Alright Marta: truth or dare?"
"Truth," Marta replied.
"I have just the question for you: Who do you have a crush on?"
All of the girls whispered excitedly and sat quietly.
Marta sat there uncomfortably. "Well…"
"Spill the beans- we don't have all night," Summer said impatiently.
"Alright, alright. I really like…like…I really like a guy named Frankie." Her cheeks turned a bright shade of red. Summer and Katy laughed.
"Frankie?"
"The stupid kid who sits in the back of our class?" Katy said between fits of laughter.
Kristi looked confused. "Who's Frankie, and what's the big deal?"
Katie got out an old school yearbook, flipped to a certain page, and showed Kristi the picture of a weird-looking boy. "She likes that ugly dude," Katie snickered. Marta turned away, blushing.
Kristi stood up, upset. "You guys, what's wrong with you? Maybe you don't think that he's cute, but apparently Marta does. Or maybe she just likes his personality. Everyone has their own opinions, so just let Marta be." Summer and Katy sat quietly. They heard a sniffle over in the corner. They crawled over to Marta and gave her a hug.
Katie said, "I'm sorry, Marta. I didn't mean to hurt your feelings. I feel so bad."
"I do too," Summer whispered. "We weren't thinking at all. Do forgive us."
Marta turned around and smiled, "I will. Is it my turn to pick someone for our game?"
"Yeah," Summer said. Everyone got into a circle again.
"I pick Kristi, because she made me tell who I like."
"Sorry about that, but I would like a dare."
"Perfect, I have just the dare. You have to phone up the guy of my choice, and tell him you like him."
Kristi frowned. "What if I don't like him?"
"You'll have to break it to him later."
"Who is the guy?" Summer asked.
"Zack."
Kristi's stomach flipped. "Really?"
"Marta said so," Katie replied. She grabbed a bubblegum pink cell phone. "You can call him with this incase my mom is online."
Katie dialed Zack's number and gave the phone to Kristi. At the other end of the line, Zack was drinking Mountain Dew, eating Doritos, and watching 'The Three Stooges.' All of a sudden the phone rang. Who would be calling at eleven o'clock at night? Zack wondered. He grabbed the phone and was shocked by who called.
"Hi. Is Zack here?"
"This is him. Is this Kristi?"
"Yeah. Did I wake you up?"
"No, I always watch movies late at night on Fridays."
"Oh, ok."
If Zack was falling asleep, he was fully awake now. "Why did you call?"
"Just to talk. Is that such a crime?"
"No. So, what's up?"
"Nothing," Kristi replied. "What about you?" That began their long phone conversation. Kristi was enjoying every minute of the conversation. Zack thought that he was the luckiest boy on earth. All they really talked about was what they liked and what they hated. Summer, Katie, and Marta were getting bored. Marta decided to do something when Kristi started laughing loudly. Marta punched her in the shoulder to try to get her to stop laughing and to hang up. "Get to it Kristi, we don't have all night," she whispered loudly.
"Is someone sitting next to you?" Zack asked.
"No," Kristi lied. "But even though we didn't talk much, but I think I should go."
Zack yawned and looked at his clock. We didn't talk long; its eleven forty-five! But it was worth every minute, he thought. "Alright, I should go too. I'll catch up to you later, bye."
"Wait!"
"What?" Zack asked.
"I kind of wanted to tell you something." The girls behind Kristi all started to giggle and whisper.
"What is it?"
"Well, I don't know how to say this, but I like you as more than a friend."
"Really?" said Zack, not believing what she said.
"Yeah. My mom wants me to get to bed, so I have to go. Bye." Kristi hung up.
"Nice one Kristi, he will believe that." Summer smiled.
"Great lie," Marta giggled.
"Thanks," Kristi said, but she wasn't to sure that it was a lie.
