i'll only pick you - brance [COMPLETED]
18 year old Vance Hopper was super into rock, metal, and all that kind of music. He even picked up drums and electric guitar, of course only playing when he was at his best friend's apartment due to his abusive father not allowing any of that stuff in his home. Surprisingly he had a crush on someone. Someone who's practically the opposite of him. Meanwhile, 17 year old Bruce Yamada is in the top orchestra, along with the top of his class, on violin. He's sorta into classical music, but never really listened to it outside of class and practice. Concerts always gave him a kick of energy, but after a while he wanted more, and his girlfriend was no help. She was plain, kinda boring, and was a goody-two shoes like Bruce. Ships: Brance: main Rinney: sorta mentioned Ages/grade: Vance - 18, senior Bruce - 17, senior Finney, Billy & Robin - 15, sophomore Amy, Gwen & Griffin - 13, seventh grade getting kinda unmotivated by the end :( achievement: #4 on brance (Aug 24, 2024)Complete

Crushes
Highest Rankings: 115 in first person I was just a simple sophomore. I hung out with my friends, played sports, got straight A's, my life seemed to have everything that I wanted, until I saw her. She was super quiet, she probably went unnoticed a lot, but she's so super pretty, super smart, she had a lot of classes with me, and she even did some of the same after school activities as me, she's so perfect. I realized that she is super social around her friends and she doesn't care what people think of her. She always wears big, black glasses and, most of the time, oversized t-shirts with the front tucked in. It's gotten to the point where I can't imagine life without her, I just don't know how to approach her.Complete

Under The Lights
Erica Howard is the drum major of one fantastic marching band. Unfortunately, no one else at Southeast High seems to know it. The school's below-average performance on the football field has caused its students to lose enthusiasm for the once-electric rush of the Friday Night Lights- and that means no one is watching her band's amazing halftime shows. But when a groan-inducing group project finds her paired up with the goofy, muscular quarterback of the football team and the too-cool captain of the cheerleading squad, Erica is forced to realize that the members of the marching band aren't the only ones suffering from Southeast High's lack of athletic enthusiasm- and that all three of them might have something to gain from working together. This tale of finding love, friendship, and pride where you least expect will warm your heart and chill your arms, just like the best Friday nights in autumn always do.Complete

The Battle of the Bands ✓
He took a step closer, the smirk not leaving his face as he could sense my irritation. "I've been looking forward to this for far too long," he laughed, licking his lips. "And for once, I'm gonna be the one knocking the smug smile off of your face." My scowl deepened, confused as to what he was talking about. He took another step forward, standing close enough for me to get a whiff of his minty breath and aftershave. He leaned in towards my ear, speaking loud enough for only me to hear, "We'll settle this with the battle of the bands," *** [Completed] Kylie Thompson had it all; she had the perfect family, a handsome boyfriend, good grades, and she was apart of one of the best marching bands in the state.
