Fire Hazard🔥🔥

Chapter 21

" So where do you guys wanna go for dinner," I asked.

"Well, we can go to the German restaurant," Liv added.

"That's fine with me, what about you guys?"

"Sounds good." They all said in unison.

"I'm driving and I'm not paying this time."

We all laughed and set off before I had to leave for marching band.

************************************************************************

I stayed with Liv and Rain for a while then left for marching band. I wasn't really looking forward to going to the football game considering the whole situation with everyone. But I had no choice. Music is what I love and it's all I'm good at. I couldn't just not go. I can't do anything right besides music. Between writing and playing it. I walk into the building and got ready to go.
My eyes immediately locked with Natalie. Why was she here? She's not supposed to be here. She was suspended for the first few games and competitions. I walked over to Emily because I thought she'd know more. As I approached her I could feel eyes on me. Was it that noticeable that I was uncomfortable?

"Emily, what is Natalie doing here?"

"Oh her suspension was lifted since she didn't start the fire but she's under the constant watch now."

My voice trembled a little "oh ok."

I ran out of the band room feeling very sick. I headed straight to the bathroom. I heard someone following me but I didn't care. I ran into the bathroom and went straight to the stall. Everything came up. I didn't really eat today but I still got sick.

Once I finished I walked out of the bathroom to see Mr.B standing there. I looked up at him slightly as he started to speak.

"Are you ok?"

"Yeah, I'll be fine."

"Are you sure because you sprinted out of the band room like you saw a ghost."

"Yeah I'll be fine I just didn't think I would see her here."

"Her as in Natalie?"

"Yeah, I thought she was suspended."

"It was lifted after school today. But you will be safe she's under constant watch."

"That's what I thought before but obviously I wasn't." I didn't mean to have an attitude but that kinda how it came out.

"I mean it this time."

I just nodded my head and walked away from Mr.B and went into the band room not making eye contact with anyone. Me being me I walked straight to Emily and sat down next to her not giving any thought of Natalie being her. About twenty minutes flew by before Mr.B started talking to us. As he started Natalie came and sat next to me.

"Hi." He simply said

I ignored her statement as I was trying to listen.

"You are going to regret everything. Anything you've said or done it will come back to bite you in the ass."

As she said these words the adult's eyes were on us even Mr.B but he chose not to say anything at that moment. As Mr.B finished speaking we all got up in line and he called up by the way we checked off music like we always have done. As he got to Natalie he stopped and skipped over her name and went straight to my name as I walked by him he glanced over then back to his list.

Natalie's Pov

What the hell, he skipped over me. He can't do that. Can he? He let that bitch go but not me.

I glared at Mr.B the whole time until we were the last ones in the room. He looked down to where I was standing and started slowly walking towards me. Once he was in front of me he stopped and stared at me like I was someone he didn't like. He opens his mouth to speak and I was kind of afraid of the words that were to come.

"What do you want?" I said and confident as I could.

"You're not planning on trying anything on the field, are you?"

"Not at all why would I?"I'm trying to be scary but it's just not working.

"Natalie don't play games with me. If you do anything on the field tonight you're kicked from Marching band.Do you hear me?"

He yelled this as to scare me which he did he really did.

"Yes, loud and clear."

*************Alexis's POV************

I was so happy to be back on the field. I've waited so long after everything that happened I could still do this. As we walked off the bus we went to warm up. The pit went one way and we went another. Andy let me and Natalie do bass drum seeing as how this is our senior year. We walked over and grabbed drum #4 and walked over to my spot on the line. Natalie did the same only grabbing drum #5. We warmed up like we usually would and got ready to go on the field.

Once the announcer announced that band was coming on the field everyone cheered. We felt amazing going on. Game or competition the score really didn't matter to us. We got to our spots and waited for the conductor. As Emily (not space Jesus) turned around and started up. We were off playing like we never have before. Ripping through the sixtuplet runs and everything. We played as if it was our last time. We finished the first piece like it was nothing.
We then quickly got to the second tune, My favorite. We played the theme from Star Wars. Lately, Mr.B has been wanting to go toward the space theme and this happened to pop back up. We started and it was as if time stopped. I was memorized by how amazing we sounded. It was as if we knew everything about the tune. I love how we got into the battery. It made my senior year way better. I loved how he didn't change anything just because it was our first year he kept it going and made it so we were playing to the potential he knew we had. That's what we liked about him most. Is no matter what he placed people where they belonged.
We had gone through the second tune like it was nothing. We entered the third tune by back marching into Darth Vader head. And again we were off. I knew something didn't feel right but I just didn't know. As we started playing I glanced behind me to see a smile playing on her lips and that weird look in her eyes. All in the moment my feet were being taken from under me.
