A. N. – Sorry I haven't been able to update! My stupid computer wiped out all my files (yes that includes all my pictures of Kevin and Joey)! No it didn't crash I just can't access my files and desktop anymore. Too bad...I just finished 2 chapters. Anyway I shouldn't keep you from the next chapter so...
Chapter 6 – What He Didn't See
DISCLAIMER – I don't own any of the School of Rock characters (I wouldn't mind owning Kevin Clark or Joey Gaydos Jr. though.)
Let's talk this over
It's not like we're dead
Was it something I did?
Was it something you said?
Katie finally got home. She walked up to her room and decided to call Freddy, she'd been meaning to anyway, she was just busy. She dialed the country code, then his number.
"'Lo?" a groggy voice said.
"Freddy! Wake up!"
"Katie?"
"Duh...what can't you even recognize my voice anymore?"
"Sorry, but in case you didn't know it's the middle of the night."
"Oh, right."
"Doesn't this cost extra?"
"Yeah but I've been saving so I can call you."
"So what's up?" "Not much...you?"
"We've got a new bassist. Her name's Rachael, Rachael... come to think of it she didn't say her last name."
"Doesn't matter. Is she any good?"
"Hell yeah." "Better than me?"
"I can't say that she's better but you're not better than her either."
"So we're the same?"
"Yeah I guess. Uhm...Kay?"
Don't leave me hanging
In a city so dead
Held up so high
On such a breakable thread
"Yeah?" she said smiling as she walked over to her window. She thought she saw someone staring up at her window but she wasn't sure, she didn't care either.
"I think we should break up."
"What?" she said in disbelief.
"I'm sorry."
You were all the things I thought I knew
And I thought we could be
"Why?" she said, hot tears stinging her eyes.
"It's just too hard that you're so...so...far..."
"Well so what? Are you the only one who's finding this hard?"
"That's the thing Katie, you're strong, I'm not. I know you can handle this."
You were everything, everything that I wanted
We were meant to be supposed to be but we lost it
All of the memories so close to me just fade away
All this time you were pretending so much for my happy ending
"Well what if I can't?!"
"Don't say that because I know what kind of person you are Kay," he said softly "you're the strongest person I know."
She slammed the phone down. She wished she had never made that call. She wished that this was all just a bad dream. She lay on her bed and sobbed. Then she fell into a deep sleep.
You've got your dumb friends
I know what they say
They tell you I'm difficult but so are they
But they don't know me do they even know you?
All the things you hide from me, all the shit that you do?
It was past midnight when she woke up. She could hardly open her swollen eyes. She stumbled her way through the darkness and made her way to the kitchen, she hasn't had dinner yet and the pain in her gut was killing her; but not more than the pain she was feeling in her heart.
You were all the things I thought I knew
And I thought we could be
FLASHBACK
Katie: You're not breaking up with me are you?
Freddy: No I would never do that!
END OF FLASHBACK
She burst into tears again. She couldn't believe that he broke up with her. It was just a few weeks ago that he said he loved her.
"And I actually believed him." she laughed at herself, then cried again.
You were everything, everything that I wanted
We were meant to be supposed to be but we lost it
All of the memories so close to me just fade away
All this time you were pretending so much for my happy ending
She drank some aspirin after eating dinner. Her head hurt so much. Then she went back up to her room and got her journal. She refused to call it a diary since it wasn't, it was a journal.
November 22
He broke up with me. After saying that he loved me he broke up with me. Just because he was having a hard time. Is he the only one having a hard time? I hate him...for doing that...let's face it I don't really hate him.
Nice to know that you were there
Thanks for acting like you care
And making me feel like I was the only one
Nice to know we had it all
Thanks for watching as I fall
And letting me know we are done
She couldn't write anymore. She closed her journal and got up to place it back in her desk drawer. When she opened her drawer she saw a picture of her and Freddy. It was taken during their graduation form Horace Green Prep. Tears started streaming down her eyes when she saw the picture. She just went back to bed and slept.
He was everything, everything that I wanted
We were meant to be supposed to be but we lost it
All of the memories so close to me just fade away
All this time you were pretending so much for my happy ending
