Legends

Chapter 1 -- Carson

I woke up to the sound of my alarm clock going off, I barely got out of bed when I realized what the day was. Today was the southwest band clinic! I got out of my bed and basically ran to my bathroom to get ready for this extremely long day.
After my shower, blow drying my hair, and putting on mascara and tinted Chapstick, I went into my closet and picked out a grey and white trouble printed sweater and dark wash skinny jeans with white hightop converse.
After I got completely ready I grabbed my phone and kavu back satchel thing, and ran downstairs where my mom was waiting to take me to school.
As we get to the school I go straight to the band halls instrument room to get my oboe and make sure everything I need is in it's case.
When I'm done with that I go out into the main hall and see if I can find someone I know , there aren't many because I'm the only sophomore from my school chosen to go.
"Carson!" I hear someone squeal
I look to where the squeal came from and found my friend Jaycee but she wasn't the one that called my name. I walk over to her group of friends and someone runs over and hugs me tightly. I awkwardly hug her back.
"Omg hey sorry I'm Desiray"
"Hey I'm Carson" I laugh
"Oh we know who you are" she laughs
"So you've heard of me" I smirk and wiggle my eyebrows, we all laugh.
"Well of course your like ....a legend" a boy I think his name is Latreal said.
"How so" I asked
"You got the special band award in the 7th grade , you played your solo perfectly last contest that got superior ratings you played in the senior band your freshman year and excelled , that's legendary!" Said Letreal
Despite people thinking of me as being a 'legend' I never really knew anyone other than people in my sophomore class, hopefully I'll make some more friends this weekend though.
"The bus is here!" A blonde boy yells
"Yeah shut it Blondie we know!" Desiray yells in response and he sticks his tongue out at her laughing.
As we all enter the bus I realize where I know the blonde boy from , I always pass him in the halls on the way to my AP classes I never really noticed how cute he was before. Although he probably has a girlfriend. I went and sat down towards the back of the bus, then all of Jaycee's friends came and sat around me. All of the seats around me were filled and the blonde boy was looking for a seat.
" Aye Blondie there is a seat over here" I hear Jaycee yell. I mentally cursed her. He walks down the isle and sits next to me on the seat next to the isle.
" Hey uh I'm sorry "
"Oh uh" that moment when you forget your name.
"Carson" I said after what felt like hours when it was only a matter of seconds.
"Well hello there Carson I'm Jace".he had the deepest eyes I have ever seen. Oh my goodness Carson your fangirling over I guy you just met 3 seconds ago.
"Well Carson" he said after looking into my eyes for a while " What do you play"
"Oh uhm oboe"
"Oh so your that Carson ' the legend'"
" I have heard that yes" we laughed
"Anyways what do you play Blondie" I've seemed to gained my confidence.. strange. He leaned on my shoulder in laughter. His hand is really bony, dang.
" French horn" he said still laughing.
I was laughing hard at that point too. Him still on my shoulder and my head behind his resting on the seat while we were both laughing hysterically. I honestly don't know why he was laughing this hard but he has one of those contagious laughs and I just couldn't help myself.
"Okay guys guys since this is the first clinic of the year I want us all to get to know eachother so when I call your name raise your hand and say your instrument." said Ms. Freeman that stopped us from our laughing fit.
"First the seniors"
"Anna Tyler" she did as directed and said "Trumpet"
"Tyler hosick -- percussion
Demetry reed--- tuba
Anden Castillo-- trombone
Amber whitesides--- clarinet "
Then I heard it
" Jace Ross -- French horn" I looked at him amazed he's a senior what the hell he can't be a senior! Hearing my name brought me out of my thoughts.
"And now the youngest of us all Carson Clade" I raise my hand and say "oboe" people clap eh.
Jace looks at me " How old are you" he looks disappointed
"Uh I'll turn 16 next month I'm kind of old for my grade"
" No" he says in a more excited tone "Uh no,no that's not old " the said with his head down. Its was just random pointless banter until we got to the college where the clinic is being held.
