Chapter 12
*Beep beep beep beep* I feel around for my night stand and pounded the snooze button. I used all my strength to lift my body up tinder what time it was. 5 am, why would I set my alarm for 5 am on a Friday specially during the summer? I looked to see that even the sun wasn't up yet. So of course I went back to sleep.

*Ring Ring Ring* where in the bloody hell is my phone? It's been ringing forever. Where is it? Gah the stupid thing was under my pillow the whole time.

"Hello?"

"Hey Kat, it's Lakey Peterson. We met a the beach a couple of days ago."

"Oh hey Lakey. What's up?"

"I was wondering if we were still on for today?"

"Today?"

"Yeah today is Friday. We're meeting up at 9 right?"

"Yeah but that's in a couple of hours."

"Um Kat, that's in like 30 minutes."

"What!?"

"Lost track of time?"

"Yeah, I'll see you there."

"Okay!"

I jumped out of my bed and raced to my closet. How could I forget about teaching Lakey Peterson? She's like 15 but she's on the Roxy Surf Team. Yeah she's that good.

I raced out of my closet with my bikini on. I raced over to my dresser and started pulling out my draws. Where was my rash guard and board shorts? Wow I'm either keep losing or forgetting things.
"Kat?"

I had totally forgotten about Izzy who was tangled in the covers in my bed. "Yeah Izzy"

"Your stuff is right here," She said holding up my surf gear "should I get dressed also?"

"Yeah" and with in minutes we were dressed and driving to the beach.
When we had pulled up in the parking lot it was 8:59. Crap. I let Izzy know that we were meeting someone and were rather late. So we ran there.
"Hey Kat, who is this?"

"Oh hey Lakey, this is Isabella, or Bella, or Izzy the girl has many names."
"Hello Izzy, it is very nice to meet you." She said bending down to Izzy's height.

"Um hi, Kat you didn't tell me the person we were meeting was the Lakey Peterson."

"So let's get started shall we?"

"What is going on Kat?"

"I'm teaching Lakey a new surfing move."

"Oh ok I'm just going to go on my own."

A hour and a half later Lakey had learned the basics of the move and was trying it out. She was more wiping out, but she never gave up. I liked that in her.

"Ok Kat one person can take only a certain amount of wipe outs. I will see you next Friday. Same time, same place" she said and with we went are separate ways.

*Later*

Me and Izzy were sitting at the island eating the food I had made for breakfast.

"Kat don't forget about practice at 1 o'clock" I read a text that Ross must if sent me while I was out.

If your wondering I had said yes and agreed to play the guitar in Rocky's place. It was kind of hard not to.

*Flash Back*

"Um..."

"Please Ally" Ross said taking one more step closer.

"We really need you Ally" Rydel saying coming into a line with Ross.

"Do you really want to be responsible for letting all those people wasting there money like that?" Riker said following in his siblings actions. They slowly started advancing.

"Guilt tripping, are you guys really stooping that low?" And they all just nodded.

"Ally, there's no way we can make it without you." Ratliff said. Oh that sly sly boy.

"Ally even Izzy-Belle wants you to do it. Right Izzy?"

"PWEASE PWEASE alwy" Izzy just said in her baby voice. That right there just killed me a little.

"Um... Um..."

"It's just, my children have worked so hard for this. And... And I don't want that venue telling everyone that we aren't reliable because we cancelled, bust because we were missing a member. I member that you could replace." Stormie said crying. That right there is the death of me.

"Oh Stormie," I said dodging the siblings and running over to comfort her. "I'll do it, just please don't cry!" I pleaded

The funny thing is, with a snap of a finger she stopped crying.
"Thanks Ally, you are sure a dear." She said not looking like she even shed a tear.

"What... What just happened?"

"That is what we call being 'Stormed'"Ross says slinging his arm around my shoulder. "Oh and welcome to the band." He said with a cheeky smile on hi lips.

*End of the Flash Back*

So that is how me and Izzy found our selves in front of the Lynches house. Izzy must of went to the toy box that they keep for her while I made my way to the practice room. I start unpacking my electric guitar that Rocky got me for Christmas.

"You aren't going to use Rocky's?" Ryland said helping me hook it up to the base and tuning it.

"Nah I like my own."

We had started and perfected one song in the course of 30 minutes. We were on a 15 minute break so they could chat with fans when I got a text.

"Ally, as much as I love your concerned texts about my well being, I'm ok. I am however getting annoyed of my own ringtone. Pass the message along to my family please."

WHAT. WHAT. ROCKY. TEXTED ME. Once I was done with that internal freak out I went to go find the nearest Lynch. "Why did you tell me Rocky had his phone?" I said walking up to Riker.

"He snuck in and grabbed it in the night. I tried to stop him But I was half a sleep."

"Riker that didn't answer my question." I said with a hint of threatening in my voice.

"Ok ok we didn't want you to know because we thought that you would be mad."

"I'm mad right now Riker! So that little plan of yours didn't work." I said sarcasm dripping from my voice.

"We are sorry Kat." He tried to apologize.

"Yea whatever let's just get back to rehearsals."
