Let's Do This

Seventh Grade

The next year, I moved up to junior high for seventh and eighth grade. There are three bands in my junior high school; Honors, Symphonic, and Concert. I was placed in Symphonic band for seventh grade with my best friend Anthony. We were decent players in the band, and weren't always the best, and was not the worse. At first when we got in that band, we thought we were good enough to be in honors, but apparently we weren't. In the end, we were happy we got placed in that band because we made awesome friends that were in our grade, and were not in our grade. Now I'll begin my stories made in seventh grade.

About a month towards the school year, I was use to everything, and got familiar with everyone in band. I even made a new friend with an eighth grade flute player in my band. Her name was Cheyenne and she basically 'adopted' me as her seventh grader. We didn't talk all the time, but she was there for me.

Everyday after fourth period, Anthony and I would walk each other to fifth period (band). Apparently, over time people noticed how much time Anthony and I spent together and they drew their own conclusions... And it wasn't true, the rumor spread that he and I were dating, even the band directors heard about it!

About everyone in the flute section heard the rumor. One day while the band director was talking to the saxophones, Cheyenne asked me, "Is it true?", "Is what true?" I asked completely confused. "That you and Anthony are dating?". I stared at her dumbfounded, I shook my head glancing towards our band director Mrs. Lopez, wondering if she noticed us talking. Why would anyone think I'm dating Anthony? He's completely not my type and he's basically friendzoned. I then noticed everyone's instrument was up, then went back to paying attention to band, but in the back of my head I still thought about how much people would know.

After band I went up to Anthony and asked him about it. "Yeah, I found out this morning". What? And he didn't tell me about it? He went on about his story from sectionals that morning that in the middle of it, another band director came and started talking to Mrs. Lopez and then she mention something about me and Anthony were dating, while he just sat there pretending that he didn't notice everyone staring at him. Well, I guess it wasn't that hard to think of a trumpet and flute dating each other.

Hopefully the rumors would die down.

Apparently, they never did so I got used to it.

Sorry, this was pretty boring, I didn't really know what to write. This is basically another random background thing. Next chapter would be better :3
