Hi guys! This was supposed to be my birthday chappy but I wanted to type this for all the awesome readers and reviewers. And all the people who guessed who Lenny was talking to.

Well today I pick Laney to do the thanking and disclaimer since she is one of the main parts of today's chappy.

Laney: Why me? Well this weird chick that's making me do this, wants to thank Leany riffen, Musical Skater, Mage of Breath, TheNewmansGrojband, and TotalGrojbandLover77 for reviewing.

Leany riffen: Thank you.

Musical Skater: Well here you are, thank you, sorry for making you cry, but it's good to cry sometimes. In gym last school year, I got hit in the head with a volleyball, didn't really hurt, but I burst out crying for no reason. I also got tripped by this kid and face planted and my braces dug into my lip, and it started bleeding a lot. Let's just say, that kid and gym are not my good luck charms.

Mage of Breath: Thanks, and here you are my good reader.

TheNewmansGrojband: Here you are and Thanks.

TotalGrojbandLover77: Yes I will 'cause here you are. And thank you.

FanFic101Girl: I know you didn't review, but I just want to say that it was fun talking to you for that short amount of time. Thank you.

Okay, moving on to disclaimer This weirdo doesn't own me or my secret girlyness. I own that, but she doesn't own Grojband or the Newmans, or anyone for that matter.

Me: *rubs hands like a villain* That's for now Laney. Just for now. *laughs maniacally with lightning flashing behind me*

Laney and rest of cast: *shudders*

Last time (chapter 9):

Apparently, my crush is so obvious, even my parents know and they tease me about it, relentlessly.

They say," She gonna be our daughter-in-law someday, isn't that right, Lenny? So why shouldn't she call us Mom and Dad?"

I think of all of the fun and good times I've had with her.

I don't even notice a stray tear escape my eye. Quickly, I wipe it away.

Suddenly I hear a voice ask," Today was the day? Wasn't it?"

I turn and see.. a redhead, with similar features to me; Laney.

"Yeah." I paused. "Wait. How do you know Care left today?"

"She came by the Groj with Mina." said my doppelganger.

"Why?" I questioned.

"Because Mina had to tell Trina goodbye or something like that."

*Sad Flashback Time!*

Laney's P.O.V.

We just finished rocking out to one of our lyric-less songs, when Trina's minion and her little rival sister walk in.

Carrie stops in front of the stage, but doesn't look at us. She watches as her sister climbs the stairs up to the devil- I mean Trina's room.

She flips her hair slightly, and you can see she's been crying.

"Why are you in our garage?" asks Core.

She doesn't answer.

"Yeah, Newman why are you here?" asks Kin.

She still doesn't answer, let alone look at us for that matter. A tear rolls down her cheek.

"Uh, guys. I think she's crying." I say.

The guys flip out because they've never dealt with a crying girl. And I mean literally freak out. Somehow the stage starts on fire and they run around me in circles. I just stand they calmly, wondering why these dorks are my friends.

I can't believe I'm actually doing this, but I jump off the stage and ask her," What's wrong?"

Our rival whispers something. I can't understand her, so I ask," What?"

I notice the guys have stopped flipping out since I was taking pretty good care of our situation.

She wiped her tears and said it again, just a bit louder this time. "We're moving."

"What?!" we all yelled.

She finally looked at us, before she burst out into tears, hugging the closest person to her; me. "We're leaving and I don't know if I'll ever come back. NowIleftthebandwithoutaleaderandIleftmybestfriend. " She speed talked the last part.

"Shh, it's okay. Can you repeat the last part?" I said, amazed that I was actually doing this. I believe the boys were even shocked. See I knew I was getting soft.

Not just getting soft on someone that I like. I'm getting soft on a Newman. And not just any Newman- the leader of the Newmans.

"I said, now I left the band without a leader and I left my best friend. And you have no idea how much you remind me of Lens." she said, pulling herself from me.

Mina then came back downstairs, obviously holding in the tears. Trina followed behind her with trails of mascara on her cheeks. She should really invest in waterproof mascara.

They leave and I think that Lennerd would miss her so after practice I thought I would come to the park.

...

"... And that's how I got here," I explained to the other red head.

He responded with an 'oh.' The Newmans bassist slid over and I sat next to him.

"Hey Laney? Did you actually, y'know, hug her like you said?" he asked questioningly. Surprisingly, he used my actual name instead of Lamey or something.

"I know I was surprised too." I say.

...

We sat in the park for about two hours.

We talked about Carrie and Corey. How fricking oblivious they are.

Turns out we have a lot in common.

Okay, this is the second Newman you helped today. What is up with you Lanes? I wondered.

For some reason, everyone in this stupid town thinks we're the opposite gender than we really are. Clearly I am a girl and Lenny is a boy.

My phone buzzed and chimed Grojband's song. It was Corey asking where I went.

"Sometimes I just want to tell him that I love him. So badly, but I think that would ruin our friendship and the band." I whisper, not realizing I said that for a moment.

"I feel like that too sometimes. They are just so oblivious that they don't realize the ones they need are right in front of them." he responded.

My cheeks flush as I realize what I just said, and to a Newman for that matter. Oh, why should I care? We just shared one of our deepest secrets with each other.

"Exactly. We l-" I get cut off by my phone once more.

hey lanes answer me. can you come back? having sleepover. Core

I sigh heavily." Jeez pushy much?" "Let me guess. He wants you to come back." he said.

"How did you know that?"

"I kinda seen your phone and Care would do that all the time."

"Well the king of obliviousness await my response and arrival, so I must leave now." I say, somewhat in a British accent.

Playing along, he joins in." My princess of obliviousness isn't around, but she might call soon so I must leave too." Lenny stops the game," Can I have your number so we can do this again? It was good to know i wasn't the only one with that problem."

"Uh, sure." I respond as we trade phones and put our numbers in. We trade back and bid farewell.

...

As I walk back the Core's house, only blocks away, hands in my pockets, I wondered. How am I going to tell Core I was hanging out with a Newman?

Well how is she going to explain her predicament?

I can't do like anything on here until my birthday. Does anyone what to guess how old I'm going to be? I just have to see what I can offer the person who gets it right. Which is better, telling me what to draw for however long you want and I'll post it on deviantart or naming a person I came up with?

Should we follow Laney or Lenny next chappy? Or should the next chapter be a special birthday chapter?

Well guess my age correctly and you can pick what you'll win. I don't think it really matters to me what you pick for me to do.

Remember to read and review and/or PM me. Please and thanks. Still love you guys. ~A
