Let's Do This

The Week After

It was the second week of school, and once again I was in 6th period; band.

I'll just say Niko and I started to become more than acquaintances with Britney and Ben. Apparently, both of them were friends already since they both have most of each others classes.

I sat down in my seat with a new band binder and my flute. I noticed the sheet of paper on my stand and flipped it over to see it.

"Christmas Machine..." I said to myself quietly as Britney sat next to me. Why does Christmas machine look familiar? I thought for about 5 to 10 minutes and then remembered back at last year during sectionals.

"OH!" I said too loudly, getting a look from Britney, Ben, and Niko. I figured it out where I remembered it from.

~Flashback~

"Hey Cheyenne! Remember this?" A flute player named Marisa asked Cheyenne whilst placing a sheet of music on her stand.

"Oh my goodness, can you still play it?" Cheyenne asked her.

The next ten minutes of the sectional when the band director was out was spent by almost all the flutes joining in the song, including the Seventh graders who were playing it for the first time.

"I miss Christmas Machine..." Cheyenne stated as we finished that song.

~End of Flashback~

I smiled to myself, remembering Cheyenne. How she was in my dance group (we had to come up of a dance routine as a grade) in PE, and every random thing we did do.

I just gotta wait till 8th grade night, when all the eighth grade band kids are required to go to this one football game for our high school, and we play some stand music with them, and watch their marching performance.

As I snapped back into reality and out of my own thoughts, I noticed that it was time for rehearsal, but in the back of my mind, I kept thinking how in a few months, I will be able to act like a high school band nerd for the first time. Then few months after will be UIL, then in May, it will be May band camp.

I sighed knowing that that will be in a long time.
