The No-Longer Secret

REVIEW(S)

simplyxliberty: Aw. Adorable. I love it!

Freddy slow-skated beside the walking Katie. "So, you know where her house is," Freddy muffled out. They were going to Alicia's party. Every band member was invited. "Of course I do," Katie said.

"Oh, of course," Freddy responded in a sarcastic tone.

Katie watched Freddy skate smoothly. "You need to teach me how to do that," Katie proposed. "It's really simple. I'll teach tomorrow, I have an extra board," Freddy said before stopping and kick flipping his board up. "This her house?" "Yeah, I think," Katie answered as she rung the doorbell. The bass was flaring through cracks in the door seal. Freddy smiled as she started humming 'Another One Bites The Dust'. "I didn't know you like Queen." She nodded as the door swung open. Alicia chugged the rest of her Coke in a matter of seconds.

Katie just blinked and smiled. "Oh, yeah, sorry guys, come in," Alicia yelled over music. "Over here!" She led them downstairs. Ten people were already kicked into partying. Neon lights were everywhere. The HDTV lit up with music videos. In one corner: Lawrence was playing chess with Gordon. In the other: Frankie and Tomika were loading up with sweets and soda. Marta, Summer, Michelle, and Eleni were dancing in the middle of the rather large room. Zack air-guitar next to them.

All three joined in their second dancing of the night. Later, Billy, Leonard joined for 2 on 2 chess battle with Lawrence and Gordon. After 2 more hours of partying, Alicia got out the karaoke equipment. "Hey everybody, karaoke," Alicia yelled as she turned off the music. "Ok who's first?"

"Ok, then we'll vote. Raise your hand for Freddy." Everybody raised there hand. "Why me," Freddy whined. "You're the only person who hasn't sung, stupid ass." The intro to Maroon 5: 'This Love' started and Freddy whined again. "Why Maroon 5?" "Just sing," they all yelled again. "Ok," he said while pouting. They were just about to laugh when he started singing the lines from the TV.

I was so high I did not recognize
The fire burning in her eyes
The chaos that controlled my mind
Whispered goodbye and she got on a plane
Never to return again
But always in my heart

This love has taken its toll on me
She said Goodbye too many times before
And her heart is breaking in front of me
I have no choice cause I won't say goodbye anymore

I tried my best to feed her appetite
Keep her coming every night
So hard to keep her satisfied
Kept playing love like it was just a game
Pretending to feel the same
Then turn around and leave again

This love has taken its toll on me
She said Goodbye too many times before
And her heart is breaking in front of me
I have no choice cause I won't say goodbye anymore

I'll fix these broken things
Repair your broken wings
And make sure everything's alright
My pressure on your hips
Sinking my fingertips
Into every inch of you
Cause I know that's what you want me to do

This love has taken its toll on me
She said Goodbye too many times before
And her heart is breaking in front of me
I have no choice cause I won't say goodbye anymore

This love has taken its toll on me
She said Goodbye too many times before
And my heart is breaking in front of me
She said Goodbye too many times before

This love has taken its toll on me
She said Goodbye too many times before
And her heart is breaking in front of me
I have no choice cause I won't say goodbye anymore...

Everybodies' eyes were wide open, along with their mouths. "Cricket, cricket," Freddy said laughing.

"Wow," Alicia said. "Yeah, that was, better than me, almost," Tomika said, distracted from her 2nd slice of cake. "Is that a compliment," Freddy said suspiciously. "Boy, that coming from me is high praise," Tomika responded while taking a hung chunk of chocolate cake out in one bite. Zack tried to sing the same song but failed miserably. Katie was next. She sung the song... pretty good.

Freddy and Katie stayed after to help clean up the room they destroyed. "I'm so tired," Freddy said as he put back the last chess back in the chess table. They all slumped on the couch. "You can guys stay here the night, considering that it's 3 in the morning already," Alicia mumbled as she looked at her watch. She looked over at Freddy and Katie, who were snuggled together. Freddy's hand around Katie and her head resting on his shoulder. They were sound asleep. Alicia grinned at the sight. "I guess you've already decided." She got up, got her sleeping bag and spread herself across the floor.
