~Darcy's POV~

Why did I have to come to this 'party? All it was was a small house could even be called a cottage, filled with immature teenagers. How could I enjoy an annoying party like this? Because of my position. I am drum major. I am required to attend, unfortunately.

Walking into the house was a nightmare. Trying to get pass the mob was hard enough but then when we got to the main room, everyone started staring at us. It was the most awkward thing that I have ever encountered. I was like we were a group of aliens. All their eyes were curious. I wouldn't be surprised if many of the girls were already fantasizing about either Charles or I. Ugh…disgusting.

"Charles, Darcy! How are y'all?" I heard my fellow drum major say. I relaxed slightly, finally someone I know.

"Hi Charlotte!" said Charles enthusiastically. "Great party." I coughed trying to hide my laugh. Luckily she didn't notice.

"Thanks! I am glad you could make it. Everyone is excited to meet you! Why don't I introduce you to a girl who you should definitely meet?" she said moving through the crowd.

Charles met eyes with me, practically begging me to come. Since it was either him or the Bingley sisters, I left with him. Logical, I know.

That's when I saw them. Two girls, one distinctly beautiful and one well…different.

"This, Charles, is your drumline leader Jane Bennet." Charlotte said waving towards the beautiful blonde wearing a classy dress. I saw immediately that Charles fell in love, again. I could see that Jane was smart and innocent.

"This is Lizzy Bennet, Jane's sister. She is the clarinet section leader." Charlotte said nodding her head towards the other girl. It surprised me that she had a somewhat decent position in the band, but it didn't look like it by her outfit. The red dress she wore was completely inappropriate for the occasion and her position in the band. Her hair was decent, a nice flow to it. I went past her shoulders. Her eyes were fierce, almost a drawback. But the color was…

"How bout you Will?" I heard her asking about the area taking me out of my babbling mind. It caught me off guard that all I said was "It's fine." Unfortunately it came out rude. The smile on her face fell to a frown quickly. Her eyes became angry.

Charlotte seemed to have sense the uneasiness because she made a conversation for Jane and Charles. Maybe I should start a conversation with Lizzy. I need leadership respect, bunt before I could say anything, her name was called by some boy, with a weird looking beanie on. I could tell this was going to be a long party.
