Oakley's POV

I walk into school with Olivia and soon split off from her when I see my soccer buddies coming, I know she gets uncomfortable with them because they ask her a lot of questions

"Sup Tree" Brandon says as he high fives me, my nickname is tree because of my name and I'm a midfielder in soccer and my defense is deadly

"Sup Brandon" I say nonchalantly

"Saw you with the new girl yesterday, you smash her yet" He says causing me to internally cringe at his words

"Nah I didn't, I'm not like that you know this" I say and he just nods

"That's what I respect about you man but why did you go down to the nerd lab" He says causing me to roll my eyes, anything that's not sports is seen as geeky or nerdy at this school and it's annoying

"I just walked her to the detention room Brandon and that's what ima get if I don't head to class, I'll see you at practice" I say with a sigh before I head off towards the locker area, he sends me a wave before I get out of sight

I lean against the lockers and take a deep breath, I almost got caught heading to dance class again and I can't have that, I don't wanna be ridiculed for dancing and being in the underground

"You good" I hear, I open my eyes to see Mo looking at me worriedly

"Oh Umm I'm good thanks Mo" I say nervously as I look at her, she nods and looks at me with a look that tells me she wants to say something

"What's up Mo" I say looking at her

"Why didn't you say why you went downstairs" She says

"I did what do you mean" I say, I know what she's talking about but i hope she doesn't mention anything

"You know what I mean, you were down there for dance" She says causing me to shhh her a bit as I look around

"Don't  be so loud ok......I didn't say anything because I don't want my teammates knowing" I say, I see her look at me disappointedly

"Wow......I expectEd better from you Oakley" She says and goes to walk away but I pull her back

"Wait Mo........I'm on,y keeping it a secret because you hear how the jocks here talk about the underground, they thinks it's nerdy and while that's not true, I don't want my team bullying me especially since I love music and sports" I say genuinely

She looks at me speechlessly causing me to look at her then I look down to realize that my hands are about her waist and we're really close together, I look into her eyes then down to her lips before returning to her eyes

"Umm sorry....but that's why and Umm we should head to class" I say awkwardly as I step back and go to walk away

"Wait Oakley" I hear behind me, I turn around to and look at Mo and she smiles at me

"I'm happy to know you don't view things like everyone else" She says before walking away, I smile as I watch her leave before heading to class
——————————-

I listen as Stella directs Charlie who has messed up on drums several times which is starting to piss me off

"Look bro just get it right so we can get through this faster please" I say frustratedly to Charlie

"Yea.....watch this" Stella says and she starts doing the notes that Charlie needs to do but I see the rest of the group get frustrated as well

"Ok this isn't working" Mo says causing me and Stella to look at each other

"We'll get it.......we just have to work harder" She says and I nod but everyone else just puts everything down to quit and goes to their seats, we aren't in detention necessarily but we signed up for music class

I look toward Olivia who is still at the mic, she nods to Wen who starts playing on the piano, as he does Mo and Charlie stop and look towards us

I smile as Charlie sits down and starts drumming to the music, I watch as Olivia walks over to Mo and starts singing

As she does I look at Stella who smirks at me and I just playfully push her before we chime in with our parts

I nod my head as I start to feel the music and Olivia sings her heart out, I haven't heard her sing in so long and I know that right now our mom is looking down at us proudly

The song finishes and we all smile and high five as we applaud Olivia for the song she wrote, I walk over and hug her causing her to hug me back as I smile at her proudly

"Mom would be proud of us right now" I say causing her to smile and hug me

"She would be.......especially in you Oak" Olivia says causing me to smile happily

Time skip

I walk in to the Mud slide crush gig with Mo as we talk and joke, Wen gave us a ride since his Dad lent him the car for today

"There's no way that you pulled a Charlie Brown with the soccer ball in the middle of a game" She  says as she laughs as me and I giggle with her

"Yea I did and it was so bad that the game stopped and they all checked on me, we still won though" I say laughing at the end causing her to smile and laugh with me

"Hey Mo........soccer freak what's up" Scott says as he comes over to us, I sigh as I dap him up and he kisses Mo

"I'm glad you came I was getting worried" He says to Mo mainly as we walk towards the stage

"Yea Well I was with my friends" Mo says

"Wait your don't mean the weirdos you had detention with" He says causing me to glare at him

"Watch it, one of those "weirdos" is my sister" I say causing him to put his hands up in defense

"Yea I was with them, we kinda started a band" Mo says catching me off guard, I didn't know she was gonna tell him especially since he's in a band too and is in the same contest as us

"Wait you guys made a band, that's so cute but what about my band I mean you guys aren't joining an contest right" He says, I roll my eyes as they continue to talk about the band and he's telling her that it's not that important

"Look Scott, my mad is important to me too so please just leave it" Mo says tiredly, he just nods and Ray comes over to him and tells him shows gonna start soon, he looks towards me then back to Mo before giving her a big kiss and walking off

I walk over to her as the show starts and she looks upset

"You ok.......look he's wrong ok, our band is good and we have what it takes so please don't give up just because he's being a douche" I say sincerely as we watch the shown

"Don't worry, I'm locked in to the band.....but Oakley, we do have competition" Mo says as we watch Mudslide crush play their gig

I analyze everything, their stage presence, their vocals, their guitar work, they dancing, and the lyrics and while most of it sucks in my opinion, they do have the popularity and they pull

And from the looks of it....we have a lot of work to do

A/n ok well I finally updated this so don't be upset now that I have, I need to finish my other Disney stories to that I have less to worry about and another big story to plan so bare with me

Enjoy:)
