Chapter two

A week later

"So she was all like "hey Nelson" with that beautiful smile of hers and I was like "H-H-Hi Gra-Gra-Grace" and the I panicked and run away like I was being chased by a dog. I am telling you guys it was so embarassing..." Nelson says sadly as he walked down the hall with Kevin on his left and Zander in his right.

" Dude chill. Grace likes you. She doesn't really care if you act like an idiot" Zander tells his friend that shoots him a glare" Hey you are here to boost my confidence not make me feel worse!" Nelson snaps. Kevin and Zander laugh a little and Zander add "Come on it's not like you and Grace have the worst relationship in the school" he says with a knowing look.

"Dude will you get over it !Stevie is not even your type anyways! Also she likes her BOYFRIEND! Hell she might even be in love with him! Stop trying to convince her or even us something is wrong with their relationship!" Kevin snaps " You are here for a week they've been dating for 4 years!" he whisper-yells once again.

Zander looks at him in confusion "She is exactly my type. Her little "boyfriend" prevents her from not to be." Zander says crossing his arms. "Also,I might be in this school for a week but she has opened up to me. Shs might be "in love with him" but she looks more like she is his dog and I don't like people treating my friends like that!You know her! You see how she acts when she is around him! This isn't a healthy behavior!" Zander says to the two boys.

"Ok their relationship might be weird but not that weird. I agree with the fact that she does everything he wants her too,"Nelson starts sitting on one of the lunch tables,the other two follow suit,"but you Zander are hitting on her the whole time!"

"Am not!"he starts "I just want her to join the band!" He tells the two boys in front of him look at him with a weird face "Dude," Nelson starts "She doesn't sing or play any instuments," Kevin continues "She doesn't even like getting involved with music that much" Nelson says once again "And not to forget that her boyfriend is in a the most popular band in the school " Kevin continues "WHY THE HECK WOULD SHE WANT TO JOIN THIS BAND ?! " Nelson and Kevin exclaim at the same hitting Zander at the forehead with their hands "OUCH!"Zander yells.

From the other side of the courtyard Kacey and Stevie approach. Kacey waves at the boys and takes a sit besides Kevin and they start talking about that awful math teacher that made them partners at that ridiculous assignment. Stevie crosses her arms and rolls her eyes. She turns to live as Zander looks behind him to see if her freakish boyfriend is anywhere near them. After a quick glance he grabs her wrist pulling her down and she lands at his right thigh, his right arm on her shoulder and he whispers something really close to her ear. Nelson and Kevin roll their eyes and continue their comversation with Kacey, catching a glimpse of the couple next to them every now and then.

With his face dangeriously close to hers he whispers something more and Stevie angrily rolls her eyes and gets of him as he laughs at her reaction.

"Come on Kacey let's go."Stevie says grabbing her friends hand and pulling her up "Bye guys" the girls yell" Bye Kacey,bye Vie" they boys wave.

Kevin turns angrily to Zander "What did you tell her this time?" And he rolls his eyes as Zander smirks "Relax dude.I just thought since you said she doesn't know how to play a instuments I offered to teach her."

"Offered?"Nelson asks."More like forced her"Kevin smirks"Whatever. Also don't worry I wasn't hitting on her. I will try to get to know better her boyfriend"He says and gets of the table.

AFTER SCHOOL

Zander's house

Zander was sitting at his huge bedroom strumming his ukelele and sometimes his guitar. Where was she ? Was she really not going to come? Maybe her little boyfriend told her not to come and she listen to him, Zander thinks sarcastically. Why there is always have to be something wrong with the girls he meets ?

Suddendly his phone rings signaling he has a new text. He grabs his phone from his desk. He checks his messages...Kacey

Kacey: Sup cutie ? :-)

Zander smiles and rolls his eye at her atempt to flirt with him since she was obviously flirting with Kevin too this clicks new message and types a quick reply .

Zander:Sup hotie? :-) What can I do for you ?

Not even 3 seconds later his phone rings again.

Kacey: You, me 2morrow that new pizza place downtown at 7:30. How does that sound ? ;-)

Zander laughs again and types another short reply,

Zander: Well since you've figured out every detail who am I to destroy your plans ? See ya then :-)

He presses send and throws his phone on his desk. He sighs as the door rings. Finally! He thinks. He runs down stares and opens the door.

"It was about time Vie! What took you so long ?!" Zander says frusterated. Stevie looks at him up and down once and says ,"Dude, I didn't realise this was a pj party. " Zander rolls his eyes "It's 9 p.m , you were supposed to be there 30 minutes ago. For a moment I thought you stood me up."It's Stevie's turn to roll her eyes "So why am I here ?" She says in a boring voice and you could hear she was eating bubble gum.

Zander motions upstairs to his room and Stevie with no hesitstion she goes first. She enters his room sitting on the edge of his bed. She takes her shoes of and throws them in a corner. She then takes her jacket off and throws it at Zander's desk besides his phone.

"Glad you are confy cause we are gonna stay up pretty late..." Zander says and winks at the girl who her jaws drops "Lesson number one. PIANO!" Zander screams. "You expect me to learn how to play the piano in a night ? And I told you I am not interested in learning how to play any instrument!"

Zander grabs her by her arm and leads her to another 's jaw drops once again. There were instruments hanging all over the walls. A giant piano in the middle and a couch at a corner of the room.

On one of the walls there was the biggest collection of CD and music albums from the most famous to the most obscure bands. Stevie was amazed.

"So this giant thing is called a pianooo.." Zander says like he is talking to a 5-year-old. Stevie shoots him a glare "I know that idiot . Can we start already . I want to get this over with." She says annoyed. "Baby please, it took me 3 whole years to master the piano, I want to teach you...music...I don't do miracles" Zander says rolling his eyes.

Five minutes later Zander has show her a first look of the notes and he has play them for her at the piano. Both of them were sitting at the stool when Zander starts "Let's start with something easy...like five notes at a time so you can get used to it a little. I don't expect you to be a proffecional after 5 minutes." He hands Stevie a peice of paper with a simple song. Stevie takes it and looks at it for a good 10 seconds.

"Need any help ?" Zander asks calmily and points to the first note,Stevie hesitates and starts playing the song perfectly. Now it's time for Zander's jaw to drop and he whispers "Are you sure you have never done this before?" Stevie looks at him wierdly "Dude I haven't touch an instrument in my life." Zander stands up and grabs his backbag he finds a piece of paper and hands it to her with a smirk. "If you can play this I will stand up to class tomorrow and tell I love him" Stevie laughs and say" Why would you challenge me? " Zander nervously says "Just want to find out something..." Stevie looks at him and then at the paper. After a whole minute she throws the paper at the floor and plays the song perfectly. "It took me THREE WHOLE YEARS to just learn to play this song and you memorized it in one minute" Zander was amazed."And you are so suprised why...?Also you'll have to tell you LOOOOVE him tomorrow so good luck with that!" Stevie laughs looks at her watch. 1a.m she reads. "Can I sleepover? It's kind of late?" She says. Not that she was expecting an anwers cause 3 seconds later she was already put of the room. Zander couldn't believe what he saw. And on top of that he lost the challenge.

Zander watches her leave with his jaw on the floor. He runs to his bedroom grabs his cellphone and calls Nelson "SHE MEMORIZED ONE OF THE MOST DIFFUCULT SONGS IN LESS THAN 1 MINUTE AND PLAYED IT ON THE PIANO!" Nelson obviously suprised he whispers "Can you shut up! It's late and I was sleeping! Also come on dude! It's impossible to memorize the song in less than a minute!And she doesn't know how to play." Nelson didn't believe him for a second"SHE DID! I CANNOT BELIEVE IT IT TOOK ME YEARS TO LEARN HOW TO PLAY THE PIANO AND SHE LEARN IN FIVE FREAKING MINUTES" Zander yells once again . "Tell me everything!" And with that Zander explains the whole situation to Nelson . "She is propably sleeping at the couch I'll talk to her tomorrow g'night" "G'night"
