(Freddy's POV)

"Jones come on, we're gonna be late man!" my best friend Zack Mooneyham yelled at me!

I looked down the street, and saw our whole entire band standing next to Dewey's van. The person I saw that stood out the most is Marta Hale. She is one of the back up singers for our band.

"I'm coming Zack, just chill man." I retorted.

"Ok man whatever." Zack answered back rolling his eyes. Obviously he had noticed me staring at Marta. Marta is beautiful. She's 5'4", has golden blonde hair, and the most beautiful sun kissed skin.

"Hi Freddy." Marta said, as I walked up to the van..

I began to stammer, "I...uh...I mean...what's up Marta?"

Dude how much stupider could I sound? I mean I'm 17, and I can't even talk to Marta.

"Not much Freddy but..."

"You're late Jones!" Summer cut off Marta in mid sentence.

"Oh give it a rest Hathaway, at least I showed up." I shouted back.

"Ok both of you just shut up and get in the van." Katie yelled at us.

Katie has been known to be good at getting people like me and Summer to stop arguing! We all piled into Dewey's van, and put our stuff away. We were all sitting by different people like this...

Me and Marta

Katie and Zack

Lawrence and Tomika

Summer up front, and

Alicia by herself.

( end Freddy's POV!)

"Freddy did you understand Mrs. Gleeson's homework assignment?" Marta asked Freddy digging through her backpack.

"Nope Marta sorry I didn't." Freddy replied with a smile on his face.

"That's cool." Marta replied smiling.

Katie flicked a note at Marta. It read...

Blondie,

Do you like Spazzy?

Posh!

Marta wrote back...

Posh,

I do not like Freddy! He's just a friend.

Blondie.

Katie felt that she had to reply. She wrote...

Blondie,

Stop avoiding the fact that you like Spaz. Heck I think you love him.

Posh.

Marta shot Katie a long cold stare.

Katie wrote Freddy the same note. (only about Marta) He reacted in the same way.

"Stop avoiding the obvious, and just ask each other out!" Katie screeched at the two of them.

"Posh!" Marta, and Freddy yelled in unison.

"What?" asked Katie.

"Never mind." Marta exclaimed.

Everyone got out of the van except for Marta, and Freddy.

Freddy turned to Marta, and said, "I'm so sorry about that Blondie."

Marta gave a meek smile, and replied, "It's ok Spaz. I could never blame you for that."

"Thanks Blondie." Freddy stated smiling.

"No problem Spazzy." Marta answered picking up her stuff.

Freddy and Marta got out of the van, and stood next to the band. Dewey led the kids into the building where they were playing. Freddy pulled Marta aside, and began to speak.

"Marta, Katie was right."

"Right about what Freddy?"

"I really do like you, and was wandering...well...if you would wanna go out w/ me after the show?" stammered Freddy.

Marta's jaw dropped.

"Sure Freddy that would be awesome."

"Ok cool. Meet me out here after the show."

"Ok I'll meet you out here after I change." Marta answered.

"Cool." Freddy replied.
