Chapter 10: New Found "Friend"
February 15, 2010; Brown Mansion then to Rockcafe; 8:30 am
Katie woke up with gloom and happiness sculpted across her face. She didn't now why she's happy despite the fact of all the things that are happening to her and the band. She took a bath and dressed up. She headed for the coffee shop. Her parents were usually out due to business trips, so she was always liberated from them. As she opened the coffee shop's door, she recognized someone she knew. Kevin. Rock Teacher's drummer. He looks a lot like Freddy. He's got that spiked up blonde hair, brown eyes and a height you'll remember. Only difference is that, he's in eleventh grade. They greeted each other. Kevin invited her to take a seat with him. They started to chat. They talked about the band and school and – love life. Whereas Katie didn't expect him to stir such topic, she continued to talk about it just to be not rude. She found out that Rock Teacher's bassist and also resemblance of Katie, Rebecca, broke up with him. Katie also told Kevin that she also broke up with Freddy. Kevin said after sometime, that he should go and that Katie made him feel better. He requested to her if they can meet each other at the same place and time every weekend. Katie said yes. They each went home to their houses. Katie felt happy just seeing someone who looked a lot like Freddy. Freddy. Freddy. Freddy. It was always him. She can't stop remembering freaky, funny, and foolish Freddy. So then, she started to write a song.
Lyrics of "Eject" by Katie Rebecca Brown (A/N: I really wrote the song!)
The constituted freedom
Wasn't even dumb
Piercing pain in my arm
Horses broke loose in the farm
I need to take some time (pause)
To think another line to rhyme
My heart isn't a CD player
Twist that thing, there's danger
Explosion will occur
Summertime cook-out
Headin' to the North-South
Your dried brain got screwed
Joining the family feud
Chorus:
To succeed,
You have to bleed
Please don't eject my heart,
Please respect
Hold up
Please stop
Revelation of the corporation
Sell out was off
Time's passing by day
Run down the street
Till the high way
Swim on away
Land's gettin' frozen
To the top chillin'
Boned and sizzlin'
Unstrung guitar
Unused keyboards
Ripped drums
Loose floorboards
Appealin' fans, Chanel bag
Flying pans, Italian rugs
Dollar folds till
The pluck to tuck
Mix some salt and rock
(Chorus)
Bridge:
Round eyeglasses
Scarface races
The hare runs faster
Than the turtle
Spinnin' so fast you gone hurlin'
Wallet in my pocket
Shoes cover toes
Up to good flow
Nothin' stops the slow mo'
Trucking the garage
Cops shows his badge
(Chorus the Zack's Solo)
End of Lyrics of "Eject" by Katie Rebecca Brown (A/N: I really wrote the song!)
She wondered whether this song should be written by Freddy or is she just regretting her decision of breaking up with Freddy. Then she thought of Kevin. Does she like him? No, she just met him. Katie was confused.

Katie's PoV
I parked my car just a block away from the coffee shop. I went out my car and dropped a quarter in the parking meter. I was wearing my new Giordano half. A half white jacket that you knot in front. I wore also a white laid skirt and a tank top. I entered the shop and quickly spotted Kevin with his back turned on me as he continued listening to his nano while he tapped his hands with the beat. I bought may mocha frappe and tapped Kevin's shoulders just as I received my drink.
"Oh hey, sorry didn't notice you." He said as he removed his earphones.
"It's cool. What are you listening anyway?" I asked him as I took a sip from my drink and got my N70 from my bag and switched it on silent mode. I returned it in my bag and Kevin stood up.
"Hey wanna come with me? I know this really beautiful park," he asked me.
"Did you bring your car?" I asked him.
"No, I don't have one. I sold it because it's broken and if I send it for repairing, it would cost as much as a new one," he said quietly.
"That's okay. I brought mine," then I quickly dragged him to the parking area.
When we reached my car, I told him to drive since he knows where to go. We arrived there just after a twenty-minute drive and he looked for a parking space. When he parked my car, we both got out of it and I saw the park. It's beautiful. People are there with their family or couples there spending their time together. It's called Waterhills Park. It has a few small hills where people could play or set up their picnic. There's also a man-made fall in the middle of it. A natural pond also lay near it. There are lots of beautiful and rainbow birds. Nice big trees and green grass. It has this really inviting environment that if Kevin was Freddy, I'd be with him here every second of the day. In short, this is paradise. A man made paradise.
Weeks passed, I still met up with Kevin and we always go to the park. We share a lot of things. The most common is being out of a relationship. One Saturday, I met up with him again. I was out of my house the whole day and we spent this day together. We watched an impressive Acrobatic Show and had our lunch and dinner. We finished up in the park where we lay on a hill, watching the stars above us.
"Look! A shooting star! Make a wish Katie!" he exclaimed pointing at the star.
I closed my eyes and made a wish. A wish that says "I wish Summer's here and Freddy and I are back together. When I opened my eyes, I found Kevin looking at me, and then he kissed me in my lips. I didn't know why I kissed back. I just wished that I was back with Freddy and now I'm kissing his look a like? Well, in those days where Kevin and I met, I started developing some feelings for him and I guess he did too. From that night on, I have a new boyfriend – who looks like my ex.

Katie's PoV
I met up with Kevin at Ryan's Candy Shop where I found him in front of his car, outside the shop, leaning on a wall, waiting for me. I was walking because he brought his
Porsche. While I waked my way to there, I was playing billiards on my cellphone. When I saw him, I quickly gave him a kiss on his cheek and I leaned on him like a wall while he wrapped his arms around my waist. I can feel his breath on my neck as he told me that he'll wait until I Game Over with my billiard session. When I was done playing, he led me into his car and we drove again for the park. When we got there, we walked, clasped hands and headed near the pond. We found an empty bench so we took our seats there. From the corner of my eye, I saw a blonde guy with spiky hair. I looked and saw that it was Freddy listening to his ipod while he held a cigarette on his left hand. I quickly got up and went to him. Kevin was left there, curious. He followed me.
"Freddy!" I said as I tapped him hard on his left shoulder. "What do you think you're doin'?"
"Walking in the park. As far as I know, it's free," he replied.
"No. That," and I pointed at his flavored cigarette.
"Smokin' as you can see. Since you broke up with me it started. Everyone knows all about it, even the mailman in the other city. Why you askin'?" he replied me like it was normal.
"Well, I don't want you doing that no more!" I said and with that, I kicked his left hand which caused the cigarette to fly to the pond. I looked at Freddy who was staring at me, red faced.
"What d'you do that for huh? You can't control me anymore Kay! You broke up with me and now leave me alone!" he exclaimed at me angrily with his fists closed. I knew that if I was a boy, I'd already received a lot of beating up from him since the beginning I bothered him.
"Don't you dare do that to her! Never ever let me catch you yellin' at her again Freddy! We're friends but if it comes to MY girl, you don't know what you're doin'!"
Exclaimed Kevin and pushed Freddy away from me.
"Your girl?" asked Freddy in a mocking tone. "Your girl?" then he looked at me. I could see in his eyes that he was angry but at the same time very hurt and curious. Then he looked back again at Kevin.
"Yeah you heard me. We're goin' out know." Kevin answered as he put his arm around my waist. Freddy looked at me for confirmation.
"Yeah, we're goin' out." I told him.
"You replaced me for him?" He asked as he pointed himself then Kevin. "You told me that the reason you broke up with me is that because you're full and that you still can't handle a relationship! But oh no! You're with him. My almost clone. Now I know he's the reason why you broke up with me!" He continued to rage.
"No he's not the reason Jones!" I raged. "Let's go baby. I just had my day messed up." And with that, I dragged Kevin at some part of the park where Freddy may have a hard time finding us since the park is huge.
We expressed our love for each other (A/N: effing cheesy, I know!) and you don't need the full details so.
