Sorry it took me so long to update school got difficult and it was either fail my classes or stop writing and put all my effort into school obviously the choice was school. Anyways enjoy and let me know what you think!
Previously:
I walked with him to his class which I happen to be in because its music and well they mix the grades. Nate was on drums and he was really rocking out when Luke walked in and starts mocking him. Unfortunately for Luke Derek is also in our class and he stood up and walked over to Luke. He whispered something into Luke's ear and Luke just blew him off and continued. Derek then out loud told Luke's biggest secret that caused his face to turn bright red and run out of the classroom. I cannot believe he did that. It was AWESOME!
-----------------------------------------
So the secret he told was that Luke still drank out of a baby bottle at night. How Derek got this information I have no idea but it sure helped us. After Luke ran out and the class stopped laughing and went back to their conversations and whatnot, Nate who during this had stopped playing and just sat there watching the scene in front of him got up and came over to me and signed something which Derek who was sitting next to me interpreted for me that he wants to know what luke said about him. I told him I wasn't repeating it because it was rude and crude. Derek signed this to him and after a minute of Nate replying Derek said he already knows he just wanted to hear it from you. I look Nate in the eye and tell him he said you were the worst drummer he's ever heard and that it's pathetic you even try to play any instruments. He also said your just a stupid deaf guy who no one cares about.
After Derek signs it for me Nate looks at me with these sad eyes and then walks over to the piano and starts playing the most gorgeous song ever. Then he did something that shocked at least me he started singing and he sounded amazing! I had never heard him speak let alone sing. Kevin walks in and acts like its no big deal I look at him as to say what the hell and he just shrugs and stands next to Derek. Casey tells me it isn't the first time he's sang in front of them. I didn't even know he talked. I walked over to Nate and stood in front of him. After he looks up and stops and I look him in the eye and say I can't believe you can talk and didn't bother to tell me! Kevin steps in between us and looks at us both and says stop right there there's something you should know. I look at him and tell him to butt out. To which he replies with not gonna happen little brother he then goes on to say that the other day Nate accidentally spoke and he was starting to hear a little so they took him to a doctor and was told he was slowly gaining his hearing back. I of course tell him to stop lying to which Nate says it's true. I've been able to hear better that's how I knew what he had said. I'm sorry I didn't tell you honestly I didn't think it would be a big deal. Kevin told me to just keep acting the way I always do. I asked Kevin why and he said he didn't want me to be mad that Nate was getting better. I'm not I'm so happy we had been wanting this for as long as I could remember.
As soon as I say that Nate comes and gives me a huge hug and asks me if I want to sing with him. We all grab an instrument Nate on piano, Kevin on guitar and me with a mic and the tambourine and we start singing the song Nate was which he evidently wrote and named "A Little Bit Longer" after we finish an older man walks up and hands me his card which says he's a music producer for Hollywood records. He says he thinks we could really go far and invites us to cut a demo at the studio. We decided to think about it. Yeah thinking about it alright. I'm certain we all agree we want this, we're hoping it will bring us closer as brothers.
