Nat took a deep breath.

The rest of the band were squabbling too much too notice. It had been going on for weeks and Nat had had his fill of it.

Ever since he had let both Rosalina and Kristina in the band, all they did was argue. He wouldn't have minded but now the whole band had joined in. Every one of them taking sides.

It was all too much too handle.

With Cooper gone on holiday for a week it was left to him to sort out everything. But it was months before any of this happened that he started having doubts.

"Nat must have been crazy to let you back in the band!" David shouted.

"No he must have been crazy to let her in the band!" Thomas shouted back pointing at Kristina.

Rosalina had started crying, Nat wasn't sure whether they were genuine tears or not.

"That's all you have to do to get Nat to do what ever you want Rosalina, go on cry!" Alex said giving her evils.

"Guys! Can we just settle down and get on with the rehearsal please?" Nat said.

None of them took any notice to what he had said; they just carried on as if he wasn't there.

"The only reason Kristina's in the band is because she looks like Rosalina!" Quassim sneered.

"Hey! Kristina's way more talented then Rosalina!" David alleged.

"I was here first!" Rosalina cried.

"Well at least I didn't kiss some French dude whilst dating Nat!" Kristina threw at her.

"That was a one off! And you couldn't wait to get your claws on him as soon as I was out the way!" Rosalina wept.

Nat put his head in his hands. 'They'll stop in a minute! Just hang in there!' He thought.

"Well why don't we ask Nat what he feels about the subject?" Thomas shouted.

All the attention was now focused on Nat. He raised his head and faced all of them.

"You want to know what I think. I think we should all get on with rehearsal so we are ready for the concert on Saturday! Ok?" He remained very calm.

They all picked up there instruments and positioned themselves and Alex picked up his drum sticks and sat down.

"One, Two, Three, Four!

And in this body

That I occupy
I've asked you questions
That can make you cry
Until you come back
And apologize
It's very sinister
This land of mine

In this Body I occupy
In this Body I occupy
In this Body I occupy
In this Body I occupy"

Whilst Nat sang, Rosalina and Kristina glared t each other from across the room.

"Nat will eventually kick you out the band" Rosalina hissed at Kristina. Nat heard it but decided to ignore it as he was fed up with listening to the same old insults. He instead wanted to get lost in his song.

"The tension's old and I
Am trying to say goodbye
And what you told me
I will amplify
It doesn't matter that you
Obviously lied
You only took me
To diversify

In this Body I occupy
In this Body I occupy
In this Body I occupy
In this Body I occupy…"

"Kick me out! Ha think again!" Kristina hissed back.

"Hey" Nat said and turned to face them. "I said we were going to rehearse not have a fight!"

"Rosalina started it!" Alex shouted.

"No she didn't Kristina did!" Quassim screamed.

And so it began again.

The arguing.

The shouting.

It was now all too much. He was so tired. He just couldn't do it anymore. So he blurted it out.

"I'm quitting the band!" Nat cried.
