A/N: Hey! I began writing this story a year or two ago, I believe and I decided to change it up a bit. I hope you like it! Chapter two is almost the same except with a few differences.
Chapter Two
"Hello New York!" Lead singer Dewey Finn shouted out.
The School of Rock was playing the ultimate venue to end their nationwide tour, Madison Square Garden. The crowd was wild and screaming as if Led Zeppelin was playing there many years ago.
"Are you ready to party?" screeched Dewey.
The crowed howled as the guitarist Zack Mooneyham started his Jimi Hendrix like guitar riff and as Freddy Jones started pounding on his drums and let out the bang of the gong behind him. Their venue started with the gutsy revenge song "Hardcore (Legend of the Rent) and ended with their cover of AC/DC's "It's A Long Way to the Top".
The crowd went wild as they the band left the stage, chanting for an encore. Usually, the band would obey the crowd's requests but Zack hadn't seen his 8 month year old son, in a month and the bassist Katie Jones was feeling very sick that night.
When the band left the stage, backstage the press, loved ones and crazed fans cheered for the band as they ended their North American tour.
"SCHOOL OF ROCK! DEWEY! FREDDY! TOMIKA!" everyone yelled out. Although the band had went to join their respective parties.
Katie and Freddy went over to visit their godchild, Ross. Summer was backstage the whole entire show taking care of the baby watching him. She missed most of the tour taking care of the baby.
Summer and Zack were on the couch looking at Ross sleep bundled up in a blue blanket. They lovingly gazed at their son, as Zack gave Summer a kiss on the forehead.
Freddy and Katie walked over and sat down with them looking at the baby.
"Like father like son." Katie said. Zack smiled at her. "Every time I see him, he looks more and more like you everyday."
Like Zack, Ross had brown hair, although Ross's was a bit darker. He had his nose, and his large eyes.
Across from that sight, Dewey was shooing away reporters and all press, from backstage. He turned around with a wine glass in his hand and opened his mouth to speak.
"Everyone," Dewey started. The crowd just kept talking.
"Everyone I—," Dewey tried again, but still nobody would listen.
Dewey ran on top of a coffee table and whistled for everyone to look at him.
"Everyone, I just wanted to say how fun this tour has been. This has been such a great experience for me, and I can't wait to start work on the new album. Cheers." He raised his wine glass as everyone in the room did as well.
"Cheers" The crowd said in unison as they clapped and talked.
The four friends were still sitting on the couch as Katie was drinking wine and her stomach felt unsettled.
"So are you guys going to the after party?" Freddy asked.
For what seemed like the first time during that whole time, Zack looked up at Freddy and said "No, man. We're driving straight to Jersey after this."
"You know," Summer added, not taking her eyes off the baby. "There's a house next door to ours that's for sale. You two should move in and finally settle down."
Katie and Freddy glanced at each other, Katie's stomach still bothering her.
"Well, Freddy and I just aren't ready for that right now." Katie smiled shyly.
"You aren't ready? How long have you two been dating? Plus you two got married at how old?" Summer said.
"Well honey, I just don't think they're ready to move into a house yet, or for children." Zack said.
"Actually—"Katie said.
"Definitely—"Freddy said at the exact same time.
"Freddy, you wouldn't want kids?" Katie asked.
"Of course I do, just not now. We have a full career ahead of us, and we couldn't do that to the band." Freddy said casually.
"Do that to the band? What do you mean exactly by doing…'that'?" Katie asked, wondering if 'that' meant doing 'it', almost repulsed, but more of because of her stomach.
"Oh! That! No, I'm just saying we couldn't have a kid right now. It's not the right time for us." Freddy said.
Katie's stomach was bothering her to a new level, so she ran to the bathroom excusing herself from the group.
"Was it something I said?" Freddy curiously asked the couple.
Katie was in the bathroom vomiting, her brains out. It was strange to her. It wasn't the first time that month she was sick and in the bathroom a lot. At first she assumed it was bad Christmas food, or maybe just too much to drink although she had only had one drink of wine.
But then, another thought rushed through Katie's head. A thought that involved diapers, rattles and crying.
Katie decided that first thing in the morning she would head off to the drug store and buy a pregnancy test.
