Hi it's me, again.  Anyway, thanks for all the reviews and all the participation in the contest.  Unfortunately, none of the latest entries have the correct answer, but they can keep on trying.  I will be beginning a new fanfic soon don't worry, I'm still going to do this one and I'm just telling you that you'll need to brush up on my Original Characters, so you might as well read my old school 1st fanfic Operation:  Anna. 

Operation:  GCM

Chapter 6:  The Routine

            I just finished my math homework as I heard my alarm clock go off.  This was the sign that I had to go to marching band.  I got my fleece hoodie on and told my dad that it was time to go.  We jumped in the car and drove over to the school.

            Once we were there, I walked into the band room, passing by the color guard practicing.  I took my saxophone out of the little shelf thingy and began to put it together.  Wally and Kuki soon came by and put their instruments together.  I saw Max walk to the door carrying his bass drum out and began to drool mentally. 

            Soon everyone was outside and ready to practice.  I chatted with Wally and Kuki about random stuff and then we found our beginning spots.  Lisa and Josh began the whole march sequence and we began marching and playing 'London Calling'.  Once that was over, we moved onto 'Rock the Casaba.'  Once that was over, Pauline and some trombonist name Stan began cutting up and handing out the lost quordinate sheets to 'Train in Vain.' We began marching that step by step.  Mr. Wolfe yelled at a lot of people for messing up their spots.  By the time we fully went through that sequence, practice was over and we all went home and went to sleep.

That Saturday

            I got up at 12:00 in the afternoon and put my uniform on.  My dad drove me over to the school.  Once I got there, I went into the band room.  I saw Wally and Kuki chatting once I went inside.  I got my saxophone and assembled it.  Ok, enough telling you what's happening, let's go into the dialogue for Christ's sake!

            "Hey Abby!" Kuki and Wally said when I came in.  "Hi guys!" I said.  Kuki took me aside and said, "Guess what?" "What?" I replied.  "I think Max might really like you!" "Why do you say that?" "Well, I've seen him looking at you a lot." "He looks at everyone.  That's just the way he is." "But I saw him smiling at you at practice on Tuesday!" "Are your sure he was smiling at me?" "Well, yeah!" The two girls began to squeal in unison.  "You should totally talk to him today!  The fanfic readers agree with me!" "What are you talking about?" "Uh, nothing.  Anyway, we'll sit by him in the stands today and you can say something like 'Did you ever see that music video of Sum 41's HINT HINT HINT! Hell Song.  I thought it was so creative." To me and he'll overhear and be like, 'Yeah, I love that video, especially when the Jesus doll and the Marilyn Manson doll start dancing with each other.'" "Ok, fine, as long as you and those 'fanfic girls' shut up about it" A/N: No offense to you, love the idea!

Soon we all went outside to perform for the first segment thingy of the football came.  We played the two annoying intro songs and went to go sit the in the stands.  As soon as we sat down, Kuki nudged at me but I told her to give me a second.  We sat down in the row above Max.  He was sitting next to Matt and Mike.  They were talking about Tony Hawk or something.  Wally left to go buy an overpriced can of Coke and Kuki whispered to me, "You talk once he gets back," and I said, "Fine, fine, I will."  Wally soon came back and I had to stir up some courage.

"Did you ever see that Sum 41 music video 'Hell Song'? I loved how creative it was." I said to Kuki.  There was no response from Max.  "Yeah," Kuki replied, "I love that video, especially when the Jesus doll and the Marilyn Manson doll start dancing with

each other."  "I didn't know you liked Sum 41," Max said finally. "Yeah," I said, "I love their CD, All Killer No Filler." "Me too," Kuki said, not helping.  "Yeah, my favorite song on there is 'Motivation'," Max said.  "Me too," I said, lying, knowing my favorite was Rhythms. "OK kids, time to go finish the performance!" Mr. Wolfe said.  My conversation with Max was dead on arrival (Fall Out Boy song!) but at least I talked to him, maybe I will again soon.  I sure as hell hope so.

Ok, sorry for the short chapter.  Please read and review.  Flames are accepted with open arms and will be used to roast anyone who messes with me.  See ya'll in a week!
