☆ Kotah's Pov ☆
You would think being drum major is fun and yeah sure it can be, but at the same time it kinda stinks.
You're waving your arm around like crazy, you have too memorize all the music for each instrument all while in a giant jumbo suit while sweating your butt off in front of all whole bunch of people and if you mess up then you could potentially mess the whole band up and that's not good at all.
I guess what I'm trying to say is, being drum major is STRESSFUL.
You also get really insecure with the uniform on, you feel like your jetting off to the moon or auditioning to become a baboon.
but I love being up there, it brings me quite joy to see the faces of the audience when we preform our songs.
It's an amazing experience and I wouldn't change it for the world.
I sit off to the side of my podium taking a quick drink of water. I turn to my left to see the football team on their benches on the other side of the field getting ready to watch the band play.
I'm super nervous and sweating a lot more than normal today, I didn't realize before that the guy I have had a crush on was on the football team, so if I didn't feel insecure before I definitely do now.
I take a deep breath, letting the fresh air take control over my lungs. A smile plastered onto my face, I climb my steps and wait as the band files onto the field.
I lift my arms into position, the players following my actions as they put their instruments into their mouths.
a 1 2 3 4
My arms swiftly slicing through the air, the music taking over my actions. The dynamics on point, the band moves across the field taking stance in their positions before moving into their next pose.
We finish the last song, while myself and the other drum major rush off our stand to lead the band off of the playing field for the next half of the game to be played.
Going to the stands, we do our stand cheers. The scores being indefinitely close to each other, our team wins by 7 points ahead of the guests.
I cup my hands towards the band and yell out for them to play the fight song. I trace my arms through the air doing the 4/4 movements.
The game being over I dismissed the band, but didn't notice that they made their way back over to the field. Furrowing my brows in confusion, I make my way towards them.
"excuse me everyone, I have something very special and important to ask someone here." my head shots up to see my crush standing in the middle of the field holding a microphone, a huge smile playing across his lips.
Everyone in the stands stopped moving to listen, I intertwined my hands together infront of me. A nervous habit I guess you could say.
"Dakotah, do you mind if I borrow your band for a quick second?"
holy- he knows my name. the butterflies irrupt in my stomach just from the sound of his voice.
I slowly nodded my head, some band players smiling at me while my friends were smirking.
What are my friends up to? I bet it has something to do with the short one, you'd never know it but she's quite a trouble maker.
"so here today there is a very special person. I've been admiring her from afar, creepy I know. But I was scared to talk to her, she's not like any other girl that I've ever met. She's absolutely beautiful inside and out, there's not a day that goes by that she seems to not impress me. So Dakotah could you stand up on your podium please?"
he sounds like he's in love, my heart hurts..
I sigh stepping up onto the podium expecting to have to direct the band again but the sight and forms was not what I expected at all.
In the amount of time it had taken me to climb the steps, Carlisle had grabbed a bouquet of flowers for his mystery girl.
im front of me, my band members and the foot ball players stood together, spelling out the words that may or may not cause me to faint.
'Dakotah will you go to prom with me?" the tears softly falling into my swollen cheeks, I cover my mouth with my hand. a small sob escaping my lips.
Nobody had ever gone through this much trouble for me before. It was truly heartwarming, the butterflies or moths returned to my stomach fluttering about.
I made my way off the podium and walked slowly to the middle of the field where Carlisle was standing. I stood in front of him, smiles on both of our faces.
he handed the flowers to me, along with the some chocolates.
"you're sure you wanna go with me? I can't dance."
"well neither can I darling, neither can I" He stepped closer, grabbing on of my hands in his. our palms making contact, giving me goosebumps.
"yes, duh. I'd be dumb to say no."
"great, I'll pick you up Friday. let me know what color dress you choose so I can match my suit with you." A kiss was pressed to my cheek, as he headed off the field towards the boys locker rooms.
I nodded my head, before reaching down and pinching the inside of my arm. It's not a dream? it's not a dream!! I just got a promposal, from my crush.
