Battle Of The Bands

Chapter 2

Chapter 2.

Bree's POV.

"Chase, why did you volunteer us for Perry's fundraiser? We are out of practice and probably sound horrible." I complained as I deposited my bags onto the floor of the lab.

"I'm sorry, I thought you guys would wanna do it, and I wanna continue going to this school." He protested as we all glared at him. "Ok, I admit that Perry is a jerk, and that the school could use some improvements, but this is where we belong. This is the very first place we went to as normal kids. And I don't want that to go to waste. Now who's with me?!" Chase yelled determined.

"I'd rather play with my nerble."

"And I'm not even in the band."

"Ok, you know what? I'm in. Even if it's just Chase and I, I think we would have a shot at saving the school."

"Ugh. Fine. At least the piano lessons mom forced me into won't go to waste. Turns out I'm actually good when I practice." Leo told us.

"Adam?"

"Why not?" He smiled.

"Great. I've gotta tutor the new girl. You guys get everything set up." Chase explained.

"You are tutoring a girl?" Leo asked.

"Hey. Not my idea of fun either, ok?"

"Wait, you know what fun is?" I asked sarcastically.

"Just get everything set up. I'll be back at five." Chase told us as he left the house.

Adam and I went up to the attic while Leo grabbed the keyboard out of his room. We almost immediately found the instruments. Picking up mine and Chase's cases, I carried them downstairs while Adam carried his drum set.

"Let's set up in the garage. It's not connected to the house so we can do late night practices without waking up Big D and mom." Leo told us as we went to our garage and started setting up. I quickly tuned Chase's guitar and my bass while Adam quickly played the drums to make sure he still understood, and luckily, he did, cause I don't think we would've been able to reteach him. After finding out I was able to play Chase's guitar, Leo suggested a practice song while setting up my microphone. I nodded as I put down the guitar and told Leo to do a duet practice, which he started off.

"I was thinking about you, thinking about me, thinking about us, what we gonna be, opened my eyes, it was only just a dream."

Then I started.

"So I traveled back, down that road, when you coming back, no one knows, I realized, it was only just a dream."

Leo started the first verse as Adam started playing his drums while Leo was playing the keyboard as well.

"I was at the top, now it's like I'm in the basement, number one spot, now your finding my replacement, I swear now that I can't take it, knowing somebody's got my baby. Now you wait around, baby, I can't think, I should've put it down, should've got that ring, cause I can still feel it in the air, see your pretty face, run my finger through your hair. My lover, my life. My baby, my wife. You left me, I'm tied, cause I know that it just ain't right."

Then we sang the chorus again together, then it was my verse.

"Now I'm running circles, see your face at every turn, I'm trying to get my Usher on, but I can't let it burn, and I just hope you know that your the only one I yearn for, no matter, this is what I learn, didn't give it all my love, like it's never gonna play back, now I'm in the club, thinking all about you baby, hey, you were so easy to love, but wait, I guess, enough wasn't enough. I'm going through it every time that I'm alone. And now I'm wishing that you'd pick up the phone, cause you made a decision that you wanted to move on, cause I was wrong."

Leo and I sang the chorus through before singing the bridge.

"If you ever loved somebody, put your hands up. If you ever loved somebody, put your hands up, now their gone and you wish you could give them everything. If you ever loved somebody, put your hands up. If you ever loved somebody, put your hands up, now their gone and you wish you could give them everything."

Then we sand the chorus one more time.

"I was thinking about you, thinking about me, thinking about me, thinking about us, what we gonna be? Opened my eyes, it was only just a dream. So I traveled back, down that road, when you coming back?, no one knows, I realized, it was only just a dream."

Leo quickly did a outro as we finished.

"Good job, Leo!" I congratulated, but he looked really sad as he wiped off his face, making Adam and I come over to him. "You ok?"

"Yeah. I'm totally fine." He smiled confidently, letting Adam and I drop it for now just as Chase ran in.

"How'd the tutoring go?" I asked.

"You'll never believe who I'm tutoring. Richard's daughter."

"Like the guy who hates us, Richard? His daughter, Tara?"

"Yeah. Plus, she talked to Perry, and now the fundraiser is now a competition between us, her and a bunch of the other solo/bands in the school."

What did we just get ourselves into?

Glad you guys are liking this book so far! Also, MaseWolf is making me a intro for this on her YouTube channel! I'll let you guys know when it's done.

Also, I changed the title cause I didn't really like my old one, plus I feel like this one fits better.

Will Not Another Boy Band win the competition? What is Tara planning?

Over and out.
