AN: Awkward. Yeah, so, I have a bunch of stories I really need to update. I like to update this one most because, everyone's only reading this one. So, anyway, lots of you said that you liked this story and that I left at a big cliffhanger. Hope you like this chapter! My mind's super scrambled today (maybe I should turn off the tv…). (AN: It took me 10 minutes to write that)
Mina: Skullenko does not own Grojband (sucks, right?)
Laney's POV
Silence fills the room. Awkward Silence. I can actually here everybody breathing. All outside noises have seemingly stopped. Why did I agree to this, Lenny? I've forgotten my reason. Then I see Hillary and Corey holding hands. Oh yeah, that's why.
No one's talking, but the whole band's glaring at Lenny. Hillary's glaring at me. I'm glaring at Hillary. Lenny's glaring at the floor. Out of the corner of my eye, I see Trina staring at all of us and grinning. Still, no one's talking. This has become really awkward. I feel bad for Lenny. Maybe I shouldn't have dragged him here. Oh wait, he came up to me.
Finally, Corey says something, "What. The. Heck. Laney?!" Ouch. I guess he's not going to use my nickname. Unlike his nicknames for Hillary. At this thought, I'm filled with rage.
"What do you mean, 'What the heck.'? I can date anyone I want, Corey." He looks absolutely FURIOUS.
"No you can't," He's clearly struggling to remain calm. I smirk at this. Now he can know how I feel, "He's a Newman."
"So? He hasn't done anything wrong."
"YES!" And he breaks his calm, "HE HAS! HAVE YOU FORGOTTEN THE PAST THREE YEARS?"
Hmmmm… I don't really care (AN: The Newmans haven't really done anything that bad to Grojband, right? Why's everyone hatin' on them?).
"They haven't actually done anything wrong." He explodes. All his hate and rage rushes forward, in an attack on me.
"ARE YOU F**KING STUPID! THEY'VE DONE EVERYTHING TO US, YOU STUPID TRAITOR! HOW DUMB ARE YOU? DO YOU WANT TO DESTROY GROJBAND? IS THAT HOW YOU GET YOUR SICK KICKS, YOU SL**? HE'S USING YOU! WHY THE H**L ELSE WOULD HE DATE YOU? JUST LOOK AT YOURSELF! WHO IN THEIR RIGHT MIND WOULD WANT YOU? LOOK AT YOURSELF IN THE MIRROR! DOESN'T SEEM LIKE YOU EVER HAVE BEFORE! YOU'RE A NAG, DUMB AND YOU LOOK LIKE A DUDE! WHO WOULD ACTUALLY WANT YOU?! ONLY A SHEMALE LIKE LENNY I GUESS! SERIOUSLY, I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHY I LET YOU INTO GROJBAND!" After all that, Corey's panting and the red from his face and eyes slowly disappears.
It's only then that I notice a stream of tears streaming off my face. My lip is quivering, my mascara is running, and let me tell you, I'm not one of those people that looks cute crying. In a voice small enough for a mouse I say, "…fine…I quit… sorry to have dragged you guys down!" Then I run with Lenny close behind me, weird sobs emitting from me.
Once we're far enough away, I stop running, but the tears sure as h**l don't! Lenny tries to comfort me, but I don't stop for another 15 minutes.
I've finally calmed down when Lenny says, "It's okay. Corey's so wrong. You're pretty on the inside AND the outside! Don't worry…"
I smile and rub my eyes, "Th-thanks. I hope the same thing doesn't happen with Carrie. It can't right?"
Lenny's POV
It can.
Laney's POV
"Wow. Band leaders are beasts, huh?" I say to Lenny, who's rocking on the sideway 3 blocks from Carrie's house.
"Yeah…" He mutters. I look at what he's staring at. Nothing.
"C'mon dude! It's not so bad! Hey…maybe we'll start our own band." He stops rocking and shoots up.
"THAT'S IT! THAT'S ONE OF THE STEPS TO GETTING OVER THEM!"
"You're still not over her after all the stuff she said to you?"
"No. Are you over Corey?"
"…no…"
"Then let's get started!"
We both started to walking to my house to try and start a new band. On the way there, we got to talking.
"I remember one time," Lenny began, a dreamy look in his eyes, "Carrie and I were having a sleepover and we shared all our hopes and dreams. She said she wanted to be the greatest rock legend ever. I said that I wanted to get married and live an adventurous life in a band. I never told her I wanted her by my side." I smile. And he wonders why everyone calls him a girl.
"I remember this one super cute time in daycare with Corey I-" I'm cut off by us arriving at my house (AN: To see Laney's experience with Corey read my 'Young Love' story).
"Okay, first off: band name." Lenny started, excitedly.
"We should probably do that when we have all our band members."
"OK. What should our band rules be?"
"There is no band leader. Everyone can sing!"
"Anyone can date anyone."
"No selling secrets."
"Rehearsals are private!"
"No one has to play a specific instrument."
"YEAH! Wait… we have to bassists and no drums, guitars or keyboards. What do we do?"
I blush, "Corey actually taught me how to play guitar. So, now we all need is a drummer and keyboardist!"
"YEAH! Maybe, we can find some people at school tomorrow!"
The Next Day Transition
Important announcement!
This is where fanficlover2266 character and NerdyNinja132's character is announced!
School is really awkward right now. Everyone heard about Grojband breaking up a little and Corey's little announcement for me. No one talked to Corey besides Kin, Kon and Hillary. Meanwhile, everyone was coming up to me and trying to console me. Actually, not everyone. Some people came up to me and laughed. I became more and more embarrassed with each visit. Worst of all, Lenny is in none of my classes, so I had to go through all of this alone. Someone shoot me.
Right now, it's lunch and a bunch of people I don't know are sitting next to me because they feel bad. I finally crack and ask them to leave me alone so I can think. After some pats on the head and back, they're all gone.
"Hey Lanes!" I jump to see Lenny and two girls I've seen around school. "I've found a drummer and keyboardist for the band."
They all sit down, "Laney, these are the Fanfic twins!" They both look EXACTLY alike! Except the one on the right has her hair down and a purple clip on the right side of her face and the one on the left has a ponytail and a yellow clip on the left side of the face. The one on the right has blue streaks in her hair, the one on the left has purple streaks. They're both wearing ripped jeans (skateboarding accident?).
Lenny gestures to the one on the right, "This is Seven. She's a killer drummer and would love to join the band (AN: There you go fanficlover2266! Hope you like her!)!" He gestures to the one on the left, "This is Skylar! She's been a Keyboardist since she was three (AN: Hope you like her, NerdyNinja132)!"
Seven does the 'Sup' sign while Skylar randomly holds up the peace sign.
I look at one than the other before realization dawns on my face, "I have every class with you! How the frak didn't I notice you!"
Seven get's an evil look on her face and then laughs, "WE ONLY APPEAR TO THOSE WE WANT TO APPEAR TO!" She says this in a creepy voice.
I smirk (AN: I think Laney would be an excellent smirker), "So you guys want to be in our band?"
"HECK YEAH!" They say together than high five!
"Alright it's settled!" Lenny says, contently.
Me and the girls giggle.
Skylar smirks (AN: Skylar too), "Congrats Lenny! You are once again the only male in an otherwise total girl band."
"…damn…"
AN: Sooooo, how was it? Did you guys like Corey's outburst? THEN YOU'RE SICK! JK. Don't worry it'll all work out!... maybe… Hope you guys liked Seven and Skylar! Am I the only one imagining them Anime style?
Skylar: I do.
Seven: Come back soon! There'll be more tomorrow!
Both: REVIEW!
