Disclaimer: I don't own SOR...sorry!
NOTE: There is a cameo in this story by a few members of Fall Out Boy..To Let You Know!
Chapter Four: Chicago is So 2 Years Ago
We continued watching Gene Simmon's Family Jewels until we heard something outside..Like a car's tire giving way.
"What was that?" Summer asked, cocking her head up.
"It sounded like someone's tire popped. No biggie." Freddy replied.
Then someone just knocked on the door. I got nervous..was it the person from my Sidekick message? I had to be brave, I guess.
"I'll get it..." I trailed off as I walked to the front door. "Who is it?"
"My name is Patrick. My band and I got lost in this neighborhood and we sort of need a phone. Pete's phone is broken, and there's hardly any service for us here, because our phones are registered in Los Angeles, not Chicago. Can we use your phone?" Is this who I thought it was? I have to be dreaming!
"Ummm, sure. Why don't you all come in.." STUPID KATIE! Why did I just say that?
I opened the door to see PATRICK STUMPH and ANDY HURLEY! FALL OUT BOY!
"Oh..My..Waterstone..." I mumbled the name of my bass..I was in SHOCK!
"Nice hoodie! I wonder who made it.." PETE WENTZ was in my HOUSE!
"Hey, you guys look really familiar. Aren't you that local band everyone's talking about? School of Rock?" JOE TROHMAN ask ME..
I was in shock. I must be dreaming! Fall Out Boy is in MY HOUSE. Well, I could see why, because they are from around here. (Wilmette, Illinois, it's the burbs of Chi-town)
"H-h-ere...You can use my Sidekick." I said, handing it to Patrick, shaking.
"Hey Katez, who's at the OMYGOD! FALL OUT BOY'S HERE!" Marta was in shock.
"I know, hard to believe, right?" I said, looking at her smiling.
"No, we're fine, we're heading to the pavillion right now.." Pete was using MY PHONE. Oh God. He was talking to his manager I guess.
"Yeah, we'll be there. Aight. Bye. Hey, thanks for letting us use your phone." Pete said to me.
"No problem. We let famous rockstars use our phones all the time!" I joked.
"HEY GUYS! FALL OUT BOY'S AT THE DOOR! I'M NOT JOKING!" Summer, Zack, and Freddy all came running.
"Wow, it really is School of Rock. We heard you guys play one time, with that old guy.."
"Dewey? Oh yeah. He quit the band a few years back, so did our two other back-up singers and our keyboardist. It's only us, and play bass. Marta here is our lead singer!" I said.
"Really? Have you guys thought of getting a record deal?" Pete asked.
"Well, we thought about it, but we want to wait until we're out of school." Summer replied.
"Sum, we agreed if a chance came along, we'd take it, remember?" Zack said, wrapping an arm around her shoulders.
"Yeah. I guess so." Summer replied, almost sadly.
"Well, if you guys are interested in getting a deal, come do a small show for us, and we might sign you..if you're good!" Pete joked.
"COOL! Wait, when?" Marta asked, looking at the guys.
"How does...next Saturday sound?" Patrick asked.
"Sounds good, right guys?" Freddy said.
"Yeah!" We said in unison.
"Well, we'll see you then. See you later and thanks for letting us use your phone!" Joe said.
"No problem!" I called out of the door.
We might land it BIG TIME. Dewey would be so proud. But I guess having a family with ex-Principal Mullins was more important. Oh well. Decaydance was a good record label.
"Hey Freddy? Wanna come with me for a second?" I asked.
"Sure." He replied.
We walked up the stairs and into my room. I closed the door behind me and I sat on my bed.
"We seriously need to talk." I said firmly.
"About what? We just got offered a chance of a lifetime!" Freddy replied.
"It's not that. I'm really excited about that, but...what about, us?" I couldn't believe I just said that.
"Us? I don't understand what you're getting at Katie."
"You and me have been chasing each other around for what, 6 or 7 years? The chase needs to stop. Freddy Jones..."
BOOM!
My window crashed and fell to pieces. There was a rock on the floor with a note attached.
"Katie...what just happened?" Freddy asked me.
"I don't know. Let me read this...I see you when your sleeping, I know when you're awake, I know that you love Freddy Jones but it's his life I will...take. Freddy...Whoever this is wants you dead!" I started to panic.
"Let me look at it...It's ANDREW'S handwriting!" Freddy was steaming mad.
"ANDREW?!?! Oh God, Oh God.." I was surely panicking now.
"Katie, calm down. He's trying to scare you. I'm always here. To protect you. Now, let's go back downstairs, tell everyone what's going on, and we'll go to sleep, okay?" Freddy really cared about me, and it was genuine.
"Okay." I replied. I followed Freddy out of my own room and I shut the door behind me again. My Sidekick buzzed, and I flipped it open.
"Freddy, it's him again. He really wants you dead." I said.
"We'll see who's the last one standing." Freddy gritted through his teeth.
We walked downstairs, back to the group.
"We heard a crash, what's going on?" Marta asked.
"Is everything alright?" Zack and Summer asked.
"Listen, guys. There's this kid Andrew Midlerson who wants Freddy dead. He wants me, but he's sending me freaky messages on my phone and he threw a rock at my window with a note attached." I said.
"Let me see the note." Summer said.
I handed it to her, and she gots chills.
"Katie...He got me too." Summer began to cry, and I rushed over to give her a hug.
"What's going on?" Zack asked Freddy.
"You guys, I'll tell you." I heard Marta say to the boys. "Let's go upstairs for a second."
Their footsteps were now faint and then there wasn't any sound. Summer looked up at me, and I felt tears sting my eyes.
"What'd he do to you?" I asked, seeing if I'd get the same answer.
"I was almost raped by this guy. I got away before he could do anything." Summer replied between sobs.
The weird thing was, that same thing happened to me.
"He did the same to me, Sum. Don't worry, Marta's telling the guys and we're getting him arrested." I said with confidence.
"Okay."
As soon as she said that, the guys and Marta came back.
"Katez, I had no idea. C'mere." Freddy embraced me, and I started to cry.
"Babe, come here." Zack and Summer embraced, and Marta smiled.
"Ya'll look so cute!"
We all laughed and wiped away our tears.
"Now, what were you gonna say earlier, Katie?" Freddy asked me.
"I'll tell you when I'm ready." I replied.
"Okay I'm tired. Let's go to bed now!" Marta said while crashing onto her slumber bag.
"Okay. G'night, everyone." I said.
"G'night!" I got four different responses, and I smiled.
Hopefully this would all just blow over.
