Bella's pov
It's a week later from the last time we communicated.
You may be wondering why I always skip to our competition nights because I have such a boring life in between.
My daily routine includes the stupid school we have here, four band practices, practicing on my own time, enjoying some food, having more food, face timing my friends, eating more food,practicing my tuba, hanging out with Zach,arguing with Dylan and eating some food.
Anyways last week Courtney called me off of Seth's phone threatening me but I shrugged it off.
Now I sit back stage waiting for my turn to preform.
Zach finishes performing running back here "I only got 24. It's the lowest so far."
"You won't be eliminated. My guess is either clarinet or flugelhorn will." I assure him
"Or you." Dylan joins in
Before I could reply Andy signals for me to go on stage. I pick up my tuba and walk out on stage
I take my seat and begin my song. It is called Bass Overturn and its perfect.
As I play I scan the audience, the stage lights don't allow me to see much but I do spot a huge sign being held up.
"Bella sucks."
Ouch.
I return my focus back to my song hitting the notes perfectly and finishing up the song.
The crowed erupts in applause
"10." Says the old man
"10." Middle Aged man
"10." The women says
"Thank you!" Yes perfect score ! I recovered from my 29's the last few competitions.
I go back stage
"I got 30." I tell Zach
"They saved the best for last. now time for me to be eliminated" Zach mutters going back on stage
We all go back on to see who will be eliminated
I scan the audience and spot another sign, its a cut out of my head with x's covering my eyes that says death to Bella.
"Bella." one of the judges say
"What?" Am I being eliminated oh my god no please no
"We just said good job on the perfect score." Says the women
"Oh." I tuck a strand of hair behind my ear "thank you."
"And the instrument being eliminated is..." the middle aged man says "Flugelhorn"
Called it.
The flugelhorn runs off stage and the curtains close
"Why did you blank out on stage?" Zach asks
"No reason." I lie quickly packing up my tuba and going into the audience section, I spot someone holding the sign
I walk over to them
"Why would you hold that sign up? What did I do to you?" I ask
The person turns around and face me... Courtney. EW go away.
"You stole Aj from me!" She yells
"I actually didn't. He is dating Ian.." I point out
"If you wouldn't of joined marching band Id still be with Aj, Noah would still be best friends with Ian and Seth wouldn't be crazy." She states
