Yes, I've been working on this story for a short while. And it does mean something to me. You would have to know me to understand. I love to write, and I hope that you all like this story. Or most of you.

I really apperciate reviews, flames I take as constructive critisim. Thanks for caring mucho.

P.S. Rated T / M for language and shit to come(haha don't you just love my language?). It'll probably be M after a certain chapter. Not sure what number that is yet. But it'll come, none the less.

Oh yeah, I don't own any of the characters

She had brown hair with a tint of red. The piecey haircut covered part of her one eye and it reached her shoulders. It made her almost purple-ish orbs stand out under her long eyelashes. She had a long, lean body was tan and her smile seemed to give her a warm glow. He didn't know her name yet, but he told himself that soon enough, he would have it.

The masculine young man stood from the seat he held in front of the students. Soon all of the students soon quieted themselves from the chatter that they wanted to discus to each other. The summer was at its end, though it was always like summer there. The teenagers felt that they just had to talk or else they would explode.

He was sure of himself. He was their president. He knew that they had to listen to him and he knew what he did was right. He was voted into this place and he would, to the best of his ability, to succeed. "Good morning," His voice echoed in the schools' gymnasium. "We are here today to be united."

He paused for a second, "As one group. For the next two weeks of your life may be the hardest in your life. You may be stretched to the limits of your strength and back. But," The room started miniscule chatter then silenced itself, "The outcome if these weeks will impact you for the rest of your lives. You will grow as a musician, a friend and a person. You will meet new people and learn to get along with people you though you couldn't.

"I am standing in front of you guys today as your band president. This is my senior year and with the help of section leaders, Pence, the drum major and even the directors, this will indeed be my best year yet. For this band will play as one, we will march as one. And certainly, we will win as one."

Chatter once again filled the room with noise and slowly silenced. "As I said before, I'm the band president. My name is Sora Hikari. (A/N: A lot of people use that as his last name…oh well..)"

Sora paused for a minute, running his hand through his spiky brown hair. His bright blue orbs looked out into the crowd of teens. His eyes found her as he saw her staring back at her. He didn't want to take his eyes off of her. She was too beautiful he told himself.

"So, you all know Mr. Youngblood, the director. For all freshman or newbies, we, the president, vice president and secretary chose the section leaders last year. So I'll read them off for those of you who don't know. For the flutes we have Selphie and Rikku," The two girls stood and a few of the new or freshman boys gawked at them, "Clarinet section leaders are Tifa and Aeris," These two stood up and Tifa winked at her boyfriend, Cloud.

"Sax leader is Namine, low brass are Tidus and Wakka and then Cloud as mellophone," All four stood then sat down again. "For drumline we have Riku, Squall and Paine. Then of course we have myself and Roxas as trumpets." Roxas stood and Namine stared at him. She just couldn't take her eyes away from him. Even though they broke up, she still loved him. It hurt her so much not to be with him. "And then for the pit-"

"Ah, Sora! Wait a second," Mr. Youngblood cut him off, "We have a new student. Kairi Westerfeld. She'll be the pit section leader. She is absolutely amazing as a player. We're happy to have her." The girl stood up and it was her. Sora looked long and hard as she blushed.

"So, all newbies and freshman, take it outside with your section leaders to learn how to march," Sora watched them all file out then stretched back, all the muscles on his well toned chest could easily be seen through his shirt.

Sora stood up and walked over to the pit. His friend Yuna walked up to him. They had been friends for awhile, and even though the younger brunette was usually all over him, he just wanted to be friends. He wasn't into her.

"I can't believe that she got section leader over me. Today's her first day!" The 11th grader walked to an instrument and started some warm-ups, muttering to herself.

Sora walked up to Kairi, "Hi, I'm Sora. Band president, if you ever need anything, just tell me."

Kairi nodded, "Thanks. I'm not sure that Yuna is very happy with me getting section leader. I honestly didn't try," She looked down, "I feel really bad."

"Don't worry bout it. She'll get it next year. Trust me, she'll get over it. Anyway, I'm going to be going to all the sections personally this morning while the newbies learn to march. So if you don't mind, can you sight read this song for me?"

Kairi nodded again, walking over to the marimba. Sora walked behind her, watching her set out the technique for her holding. She grabbed a pair of mallets as Sora placed the instrumental version of 'Simple and Clean' on the cheap wire music stand.

"I love this song!" Kairi exclaimed, slightly jumping. Sora watched the way her body moved, glad that he chose this song.

"Have you ever played it before?" He asked, after he was done staring at her.

"No. I couldn't ever find the music for it," She waited until Sora counted her off. She played the entire song perfectly without messing up even a grace note.

"Wow. You really are amazing. A-M-A-Z-I-N-G," Sora let the words and letters just flow from his mouth, "Well, we know that you definitely deserved this place. You should be all set to get things going. Good luck Kairi." He started to walk to the doors to check with another section, "Pit!" he yelled as they all looked up at him, "Listen to everything that your section leader says. And I'm serious. Any of you back talk or misbehave, I will hear about it."

O – O – O – O

All sections came in for lunch at 12:15. Sora grabbed his lunch box and sat down where for the past four years, him and his friends had always sat. Riku and Roxas walked over to the spot soon after Sora and sat down.

"Hey there Mr. High and mighty president," Riku joked, chuckling to himself, "Did you see some of those mad banger freshies?"

"Man, I saw one newbie and she sure wasn't a freshman," Sora saw her walk out into the lobby following Yuna, Stelphie and Rikku. They sat down next to the boys like they always did.

"Sora, what in the world is up with that drill?" Rikku complained, "Doesn't the president get a day? I have to go from one side of the freaking field to the other in 16 counts. It's insane and it hurts like a bitch."

Sora shrugged. Soon the rest of their group joined them. Cloud and Tifa sat together as if they were in their own little world. Squall and Aeris kept looking longingly at each other. Everyone knew that they liked each other, but they were too shy to admit it to one another. The other girls were giving Kairi tips on the types of guys in their school and which ones were hot and the ones that she should stay away from.

"So, what group do I go into?" Riku asked jokingly. Everyone also knew that Riku was a huge flirt.

"Hum…" Paine said, rubbing her chin slightly. "I say that you go into the hot group."

"Oh, it looks like I have a drummer on my side," Riku said, popping his shirt up, "I'm pimp, I know."

"Pimp huh? Party in my pants? I think not," Selphie said, causing everyone to laugh.

"Hey, what about the rest of us? Don't we get classified?" Wakka asked.

The girls giggled. Olette scooted next to Pence, "I think you go into the hottie class." Pence smiled and blushed. He had a crush on Olette since they broke up in 9th grade.

"Well Mr. Drum major, looks like you got a girl after you," Tidus joked.

"And you don't?" Wakka said, pointing to Yuna who was basically drooling. Yuna turned away quickly enough, making the other girls laugh.

"Well if we're being classified," Sora started, "What about the girls?"

"Okay, I say that we take out a piece of paper and we write all the girls names on it and they do the same and we each write who we think is hot on it. They can do the same but we won't say who wrote what…" Roxas said.

By the end of the lunch hour they had they're lists. And here's how they went.

The Girls list:

Tidus- yes, he's okay, eh, yes, no—sorry!!, yes, yeahhhh, okay, sure?

Wakka- Yes, I like his hair, just a friend, cute, maybe, Oh yeah babyyy, Sure?, yeah, uhm..

Namine- hm…, not my type, cute, okay, eh, not my type either, beautifully stunning, pretty

Paine- emo girl, cute, love the hair, awesome person, not my type, hottie, cute, okay

They switched lists and the read them over. They spent most of the reading time laughing their butts off. But after all the laughing was over they wanted to know who wrote what.

Kairi looked at her name, "This sounds really stupid, but what does mad banger mean? We didn't have that term at my old school…"

"Means that whoever wrote it wouldn't mind fucking your brains out. But it depends on the person," Sora replied in a serious voice.

"Oh…do you guys normally say that?" She asked. She knew she sounded stupid and she also felt stupid.

"Girls and guys say it. Like Cloud is mad banger," Tifa said, giggling.

"Yeah. And like Riku was saying that some of the freshmen were mad bangers," Roxas said. He looked at Namine and mouthed, "I love you" to her. She turned away as he saw her eyes slightly start to glaze. She got up and left the group.

Roxas waited for a second then got up too. He followed her until they were in a random hall, "Namine. Stop." She stopped and turned around. Roxas approached her closer and grabbed her hands in his, making sure that she wouldn't try to pull them away. "Nami, I love you. I can't stand living without you."

Namine stood there silent for a second then started to cry. Roxas swooped her body into his, holding her as tight as he possibly could. He kissed her forehead, "Please don't cry."

"Do you mean it?" She said looking up at him longingly.

"Of course," Roxas tried to continue but was cut off by Namine's lips on his.

O – O – O – O (Back in the lunch circle)

"So, Kairi, where did you used to go to school," Sora said while stretching out his muscles. He caught Kairi glancing at them and remembered that she would eventually get to see him shirtless.

"I went to a private school. I used to live in a city. It was busy all the time. My parents hated it there and after my dad died, my mom decided to move. So we moved onto the countryside. But then she got sick and she decided we move here for a complete change of scenery," She said.

"I'm really sorry. I didn't know your dad died. I feel bad that I asked," Sora said, shifting his eyes back and fourth awkwardly.

"Hey, it's okay."

Riku leaned over and whispered, "So that's the newbie that's mad banger?" Sora chuckled and nodded his head slightly.

O – O – O – O

After lunch the whole entire band came together and practiced the songs. Sora couldn't help but stare at Kairi while they played. She moved with such grace it was intimidating to him. She caught him looking at her and blushed then looked away.

Kairi seemed to have a way of looking beautiful when she was in a rush playing and running from instrument to instrument. Sora couldn't honestly say that about any other girl he had ever met or saw. Why in the world was he so damn intrigued with her?

Okay so yeah. Now that you read the whole chapter...Please review. Like I said before the chapter, flames are also respected.
And even if I don't really get that many reviews, flames or not, I personally like how this story is going, and I'm going to continue it.
