WooHoo! Another update! Yeah, okay so I have some questions I want to ask you guys. I don't have Twitter so I hope that you guys know the answers. Questions are at the bottom.

Okay, so I've also noticed that I don't put disclaimer in my chapters, but you already know that I don't own How To Rock. But just to be clear, for the ones who need a brain ASAP, I do NOT own HTR!

Now lets start this chapter!

Stevie's POV

Was he serious? Us starting a band? It may sound crazy but I was actually overthinking his idea. I smile at the thought. "Well, what do you guys think?" he asks. We all share a look and shrug. "I guess it's not that bad of an idea." Nelson says. "Yeah I mean, it could be cool." Kevin says. Now all eyes are on me. Zander giving me a reassuring smile. "I don't know, I guess it could work.." I say trailing off. "Well then it's settled!" Zander says excited. I give him a small smile before he starts talking again. "Okay first, a band name." We all start thinking of a name and in my head, I have nothing. "Hey what about Gravity 4?" Nelson starts, "You know because we're down-to-earth and there's the four of us." he says. We nod our head in approval. "Gravity 4, it soulds cool." I say. "Well then I guess that's our new band name." Zander yells out excited.

"Okay, so next thing, songs. Who do you guys think should write them?" Nelson asks us. "Well, what about Stevie?" Zander says. I widen my eyes in shock. "Me? Write songs?" I ask them. They all nod their head. "Come on, the first moment I met you, you were holding a songbook that was bigger than the four Twilight books mixed together." Zander says. He is right. What did I just say? "Wait so you guys expect me to write all the songs by myself?" I ask. "No, of course not. I could help you. I write my own songs as well." Zander says. "It's okay with me. I just don't want to do it all alone." I say. "Wait who's gonna play what?" Kevin asks. "I know I'll be playing the drums." he says. I roll my eyes at him playfully, "We could also just change the instruments from song to song, you know?" Zander says. "Wait," I start. "I don't want to start this fast. I mean, it's only Zander's second day at Brewster High and you already want to start a band?" I ask them. They shrug their shoulders. "Come on Stevie, isn't it normal to start a new school year doing new stuff like starting a band?" Kevin says. "And if this works out, you can rub it in the Perfs's faces." Nelson said, agreeing with Kevin. "Okay, so maybe this can work out." I say. They all laugh at me. Nelson opened his mouth to say something else but was interrupted by the bell.

Kevin and Nelson got up, said a quick goodbye and headed to class. Me and Zander stayed, since we both have free period now. He sits down next to me. I couldn't help but notice that there was no personal space between us at all. But I kind of enjoyed it. "How did you come up with that whole band idea anyway?" I ask him. He just shrugs and says, "At my old school I had a band too, but then I moved here and we broke up." I kind of feel sorry for him, leaving his hometown, his friends. I shiver at the thought. "I'm sorry." I say to him. He smiles softly at me, "It's okay. It's not your fault anyway." he says. I look in his eyes. His beautiful chocolate brown eyes. Suddenly, I start to lean in, and he starts to lean in to. We were about close the gap, when we heard someone knock on the door.

We jumped apart and there was an awkward silence between us. Zander opened the door and there stood Grace. I waved at her and she waved back, and smile in her face. "Hey Grace." I say. "Hey Stevie! Hey Zander!" she says, almost yelling. "What are you doing here?" Zander asks her. "Well, I'm the only Perf that has a free period right now, so I've decided to come here and get to know you guys better." she says. Grace may be a Perf, but she has a heart. I smile softly at her. "Well then Grace, sit down." Zander says kindly. She sits down on the couch and I start the conversation, "So, what do you want to know Grace?" I ask her. "I see that you guys have a lot of instruments in here. What do you guys play?" she asks us. "I play the piano, ukelele, guitar and key-tar." Zander says. "And I play the play the bass, violin, cello, piano and a bit of key-tar. Our friend Kevin plays the drums and can rap. And Nelson plays the piano but he can also be usefull as a DJ." I tell her. "What about you? Or do Perfs have this rule about not being allowed to own an instrument?" Zander asks her jokingly.

She starts playing with the ruffels of her black dress. "Well, The Perfs actually do have that rule." she says almost starting to tear up. Me and Zander look at her shocked. "Seriously? The Perfs are not allowed to own an instrument?" Zander asks her, his mouth slightly open. "Are you surprised?" I start. "The Perfs have all kinds of stupid rules." I say. Grace nods in agreement. "Can you guys keep a secret?" she asks. I look at Zander to see him shrugging. "Sure Grace, what's wrong?" I ask her softly. "The Perfs may have that rule about not being allowed to own an instrument, but that didn't stop me from buying my first guitar." she says. I drop my jaw in shock. Grace bought a guitar? Against The Perfs's will? She looks embarrassed. I can tell by the way she's biting her lower lip and looking down at her shoes. "Wait, so you bought a guitar when you knew you weren't allowed to?" Zander asks in shock.

She looks up and nods her head. "Can you play?" he asks her. She smiles softly and nods. I smile at the thought. Grace, The Perf, playing the guitar. "Go ahead, you can use mine." I say softly. I stand up and walk to my guitar, grabbing it from its stand and hand it to Grace. She accepts it but looks unsure. "Don't be shy." I say. She was about to play, but then she stood up. "I can't do it. What if someone hears me? I'm going to be kicked out of The Perfs." she started to panick and was on the verge of tears. "Grace it's okay." I say comforting her. "We can finish this later okay? Don't panick." I say. She sits down again calms down. "Are you okay now?" I ask her. She looks unsure but nods her head.

"You wanna try again?" Zander asks her softly. She shakes her head and lays down on the couch. "I think that we should give you some time to calm down." I tell her. She closes her eyes. After a few minutes, she opens her eyes again. She sits up and says, "Okay, I think I'm calm now." I look at her carefully. "Do you think that you can play now?" Zander asks. "No, I think it's for the best that we do it another time. When I don't need to worry about someone hearing me." she says. I nod my head. "Wait, don't The Perfs come to eachothers houses?" Zander asks confused. "Yeah, they do." she says. "And The Perfs have never noticed your guitar before?" he says. Now I'm confused too. "The Perfs always say to you first that they're coming over. That gives me time to hide my guitar in the little hut in my backyard." she says.

There's a silence. The only noise are the loud raindrops on the windows. I blush at what happened between me and Zander before Grace knocked on the door. Me and Zander were about to kiss! Now I know that my cheeks are probably as red as a tomato. Then Grace starts talking again, "Hey are you guys in a band? I just thought since you guys play so many instruments." she says. Should we really trust Grace with this kind of information? She may be nice, but she's still a Perf. "Well, Zander still needs to move his instruments to this room." He looks at me confused, "Why should I do that?" he asks me. "We all do it, if you're a friend, and you own an instrument, you put it here in this room." I explain to him. "Oh, okay, I'll bring them tomorrow before school starts." he smiles. "But anyway," Zander starts, "No were not in a band, but we were discussing about starting one before you came in." he says. Her lips curve into a 'o'.

We spend the rest of our free period asking eachother questions. Turns out that Grace is anything but an airhead. She has a large shelf in her room that's filled with books, that she hides in her backyard too when a Perf is coming over. She's actually very smart. At her old school, she used to have straight As. But now, because of another stupid rule from The Perfs, she always gets Ds or Cs. When the bell finally rang. Grace rushed out of the room, hoping she didn't get caught. Luckily for her, The Perfs weren't out of class yet. Me and Zander waited for Kevin and Nelson in the bandroom. There was another awkward silence. "So, never thought that you would ever be nice to a Perf." Zander says. I chuckle at his comment. "Grace is nice to me, so I'm nice to her." I reply. He scoots closer to me and I find myself blushing again. "So," he starts. "If you're going to make it awkward, please stop." I say. He laughs slightly. "I was actually going to ask you a question." he says. I nod my head telling him to continue. "What-" He was interrupted by Kevin and Nelson coming in.

"That teacher is mean." Nelson says. "So mean, I can't believe he made us write a 500 word essay." Kevin says. "Like I can finish something like that." Nelson says. "Like I can start that." Kevin says. I chuckle slightly. "Okay so now that we're back," Nelson says. "What have you guys been doing?" Kevin finishes. "Nothing, only that Grace came in the room when you two left." Nelson snaps his head up after I mentioned 'Grace'. "Grace? You mean Grace The Perf?" he asks us shocked. "Yeah, she was the only Perf that had a free period, so she came by. And then we decided to Q&A eachother." Zander says. Nelson starts to pout. "Man, I can't believe I missed Grace." he says. "Come on guys, lets talk about our new band." Zander says excited. We all groan. "Come on Z, can't we have a little break on the 'band talk'?" I ask him tired. "Fine, but only a few minutes." he says. Man, he sure loves bands. I sit back and close my eyes.

"Come on Steves, wake up." I hear a soft voice say, a voice that I recognize as Zander's. "Wake up Steves." he says again. I flutter my eyes open to see Zander in front of me, smiling softly. "How long have I been asleep?" I ask him. He laughs. "Long enough, school's over." he says to me. I shot up and grabbed my bag. "Oh my god, I have to go to work. See you tomorrow Zander." I say quickly, maybe a little bit too quickly. "Um, okay. I'll see you tomorrow." he says. I smile at him and drive to the mall.

Okay, so this chapter was pretty long. So these are the questions:
