Music on the Field

2.

Practice
3:15

My sunglasses were on and I was in the zone for practice. This is usually when I'm in my comfort zone just plain ol Adrienne. We walked to the practice field and then sat our instruments down. When I say I'm sick of basics I'm sick of it. But I also liked helping freshman who can't match in time.

"Hey Hun fall out" poor flutes can never march in time.

"What's your name"

"Becca" she was about 5'4 and she reminded me of myself freshman year.

"Hi Becca I'm Adrienne"

"Hi"

"Okay so let's try this together"

"I suck don't I" she asked me. I mentally chuckled.

"Everyone sucks but hey you'll get there so let's start 1 2 3 and step" she stepped off with her right.

"It's your left okay" Typical mistakes.

"Oooooh" she hit her forehead.

"Ready?"

"I think so"

"Okay we're gonna do eight and stop on my count. If you have to count it's okay. Count. If you count everyone counts then we don't have to do these as much be the trendsetter of them." I tried to encourage her.

She smiled and then I counted off. She was doing it correctly.

"Awesome Becca try it one more time on your own with out me I'll count off. Dut dut dutdutdutdut."

She turned around and I nodded. "You can go back in now"

We did basics for along time until we were dismissed for sectionals.

"Okay you lovely people lets go over the drum solo in the opener. Um basses let me here it and don't forget the down beat.

I checked my phone. 6:45. I heard a group of guys passing and I knew the voices anywhere.

"You're a band geek too. Damn you suck" Victor Cruz Kenzie's boyfriend said to me.

"Don't listen to him Hey A" Reuben his the back of Victors head then walked up to me and poked my stomache. This was so embarrassing even Odell started laughing. I knew I couldn't show emotions.

"Basses what did I say about missing the down beat. Do it again"
Rueben sat his bag down and began harassing my section

"Rube you're staying man with her." Jarvis asked but looked at me with disgust. Odell had this blank face on him as if I was invisible .

"Yes I am my wife and my girlfriend are still here. Y'all go" he shoo'd  them away.

"Band isn't even a sport" I heard one say.

"THAT IS BASSES DROP DOWN AND GIVE ME TEN YOUVE MISSED THE DOWN BEAT 10 TIMES."

The basses dropped and did the push ups.

"Miss it again and you make it 50"

Ugh Odell had to watch my outburst at my section.

"Um David take over for a sec please I gotta go to the Drum room really quick" I turned to Reuben "can you come with me really quick p-please" I was trying not to cry but it was getting to me. Don't cry Adrienne don't... DAMNIT MAN.

"Cmere Babygirl" Rueben hugged me. He became like my big brother.
"I'll be okay"

Odell Beckhman

"I am NOT okay dad I'm not. From all these stupid classes y'all making me take to football to keeping my girlfriend happy this is so much" I screamed in my pillow.

"Well I have one solution" my dad said.
I turned over.

"What's that?" I gave him a look
"Drop your girlfriend. She ain't help to you. Dinner will be ready in 10"

My phone buzzed.

The Boys
VC:what's everyone doing
Reub:homework
Jarvis:homework
Me:homework why.
VC:anyone taking honors Anatomy and Physiology with Adams.
Jarvis:good luck he's the toughest one. Dakota has him 3rd period.
Odell-AP Chem???
Rueben:my friend is taking it she's really good at school period. She got me through honors algebra 2

People think me and my friends only talk about pussy and females but we talk about other stuff too.

Rueben-so who's hosting the back to school party
Odell:me this Friday night parents and siblings are leaving for the weekend. Plus I need some pussy
VC:I'm surprised you haven't caught anything from your monkey yet.
Jarvis:I'm dead but y'all bring bottles and b585ches. I got work to do see y'all later.

I got called to dinner.

"So how was everyone's day?" my mom asked.

"I hate Jr high. Everyone sucks" my little brother Kordell said.

"Ditto mom ditto" my little sister Jazzy said.

"Okay how about you Sonny."

"Daddy light on the mayo when you make my sandwiches for lunches" the table started laughing.

"Ok Sonny" he said while shaking his head. That 4 year old is a mess.

"So guys we are going to a dinner at one of my old college buddy's houses on Saturday so please be on your best behavior and Odell please shower." My dad announced.

"Dell I heard she has a daughter your age" my mother chimed in.

"I have a girlfriend" I have to remind them everyday.

"I don't like her" my mom stated and the rest of the family chimed in. She maybe spoiled but I dont mind.

"And they have a twins a boy and a girl around your age Jazzy and Kordell. I think they go to Quincy Prep."

"Gross they're snobs. QP is for the rich white peoples they must be white." Kordell said and Jazzy agreed.

"No they are not not hush and eat. In Wednesday you guys will behave." My mom said.
"I'll see because QP always has something to say about other schools. So I'll see what they say and if they give me lip I'll kick they're butt" Kordell stated

"How about this. I kick your butt and I'll make sure it hurts how about that?" My dad chimed in making him quiet. "That's what I thought. You guys gotta learn to treat people better. There's always someone out there who you might need the most and they could easily reject you. Remember that"

"Well daddy since I'm nice can I have 5 bucks tomorrow. At school is pizza day and I know you're loaded." The table laughed.

After dinner I went and attempted to finish the rest of my homework. My dads words were sticking with me. I know I have my boys and family plus my girl. My life is perfect so who would I need.
