To my lovely reviewers because I heart them so much ( all 2 of them):
Shannow: You and Monti SHOULD work together to destroy I mean annoy Wyman...And yes you did tell him before me and Jess had a chance to tell him...And I wanted to tell him so bad.
Princess-Meg: It is fun to say heart all the time...I think it might annoy some of my friends though. I'm leaving Sunday for band camp...I really want to go but then again I don't. It'll be my third one. And all we do is march on the field for basically 9 hours a day with meal breaks in between practice blocks. We're going 2 states away to Pennsylvania so we have to take coach buses. Hehehe...I like this chapter best...for certain reasons...awww crud monkey's...I forgot to put freshman initiations in this chapter....::hits herself:: ouch...
Marching Band Harry Potter Style
Chapter 6
Kristine and Shannon were in their room after evening practice block. Kristine lay on her bed tossing a ball up and down.
"What do you think she's planning?" asked Kristine, still tossing the ball.
"Who? Jess?" replied Shannon.
Kristine nodded silently.
"I have absolutely no idea. All I know is that it obviously involves you and Ron."
"No duh," said Kristine, sticking out her tongue.
A knock came at the door.
"Visitor. I got it," said Shannon. Her bed was closest to the door. She opened the door a crack.
"Just thought I'd come visit," came a male voice with an English accent.
"Hello, Draco," called Kristine from her bed.
Shannon opened the door the rest of the way. Kristine looked toward the door as she did this.
"Oh, hi, Kristine."
"Draco, do you want to go for a walk down to the game room or something?" Shannon asked her new boyfriend. He said sure and the two silently left the room, closing the door behind them. This left Kristine alone in the room.
This saddened her a bit, but by now she was used to it. Since her freshman year she had never really been the band member to go out there and do things. She usually did things like stay off to the side when the band held their annual talent show, even though all the moms thought she had a great singing voice and thought she should sing. Kristine was used to standing on the sidelines. She was content with her position in life (even if she wasn't entirely happy with it).
Kristine rolled over onto her stomach, legs crossed in the air. She pulled out her binder from under her bed and continued to write, letting her long brown hair fall in her eyes as she did so.
Kristine picked up a chunk of hair to see whether or not the red highlights she had gotten earlier that summer were still there. She was constantly playing with her hair, whether it be twirling it around her finger or sticking it in her mouth. She started twirling it and as she did a voice came from the doorway.
"You shouldn't do that. You're going to mess up your hair."
"Chiding me on hair care now, are you Ron?" She didn't need to look up to know who it was.
"Well you know, I don't have this gorgeous hair without any work."
Kristine laughed at this.
"Actually, I hate my hair. It's so...red..."
"I love red hair. It's better than brown, yuck," said Kristine, looking at her own hair in disgust.
"Looks like we have that in common."
"What?" Kristine said confused.
"We both hate our hair."
"Lights OUT!, "called an authoritative voice from down the hall. Kristine hadn't realized that it was 11 already. Ron turned, said "goodbye" and left.
Shannon still wasn't back yet, but Kristine was tired so she just changed into her pajamas and plopped into her bed.
Kristine was asleep a few hours when a deafening 'AHHHHHHHH' was heard from one of the boys rooms on the floor above them.
Kristine awoke with a start.
"What was that?" she said aloud.
"I have no idea," said Shannon, who had returned after Kristine fell asleep.
Both girls moved toward the door. A steady stream of girls was running up the stairs to see what was going on. They joined them.
Everyone seemed to be gathered around Harry and Ron's room. Apparently Ron had been the one that had screamed. He could be heard explaining what had happened to Wyman.
"I was dreaming. The whole band was on the field. We were doing drill and the Doctor Beat was going. You wouldn't let me go to sleep. I told you that I wanted to go to bed and you turned into a giant spider telling me to tap dance. ::he shuddered:: That's when I screamed. Apparently I woke everyone else up too," he said with a nervous laugh.
Everyone stood staring sleepily for a few seconds and then started shuffling back to their rooms, yawning. Finally only Harry, Ron, Draco, Shannon, Jess, and Kristine were left in the hallway.
"I'm going to go back to bed," said Draco and Harry in unison.
"Maybe we should all go back to bed," yawned Shannon.
They all agreed and headed back to sleep. They immediately fell back into dreams, even before their heads hit their pillows.
::Beep::Beep::Beep::Beep::
Kristine flinched as the Doctor Beat beeped in her ear. "Ouch," she muttered.
"Five minutes," someone whispered.
The band was getting dismissed half an hour early today. It was Wednesday and the camp dance was today. Kristine still wasn't entirely sure she was going to go. She hadn't been to any of the other dances so far in her history at band camp.
"Band, around me," said Bill. "You did great work today. You've finished drill and today you ensembled about half of the music. Great job. Now, go get changed, go to the dance, and have fun. Oh, and march back to the dorms."
The band did as they were told and everyone headed to their rooms to get ready.
"You going to the dance?" Kristine asked Shannon.
"Yes, and you're coming too."
"I don't want to," Kristine replied defiantly as she opened the door.
"You're coming and you're going to have fun," said Jess from the door. She was already changed. She certainly got ready quick.
"I have nothing to wear."
"Oh well, pout this on," said Jess handing Kristine her black capris and orange and white double layer tank top. Kristine went to go change.
When she returned Jess pushed her on to her bed and started brushing her hair. Kristine found this all very pointless.
Upstairs in Harry and Ron's room, Harry was trying to convince Ron to go.
"There'll be lots of girls," reasoned Harry in a way that only guys could reason. "Jess told me Kristine's going,"
"Fine," Ron said, finally. "I'll go get ready." He grabbed a pair of worn jeans and a blue t-shirt and went to the bathroom to take a quick shower.
When he got back to the room Harry was already gone. A note was on the desk.
Ron, I'll meet you downstairs. Jess, Shannon, Draco, and
Kristine are walking with us to the dance. See you in the
game room.
Harry.
Ron rode the elevator down to the ground floor with a few of the freshmen. He stepped out of the elevator and then made his way down the short flight of stairs.
Jess and Harry were playing foozeball, while Kristine and Shannon tried to teach Draco pool. Shannon looked up and spotted Ron.
"Ron's here. Lets go," she said.
Everyone then climbed back up the stairs and out of the dorms. They walked up the hill toward the cafeteria. The dance was being held in a building across the street from the cafeteria.
As they walked through the doors and into the air conditioned room they all shivered. Hermione had put a spell on them so that no one in the band would be too hot being out in the sun all day. Too bad she had forgotten to take it off. Everyone from Hicksville now stood shivering together in one corner.
Kristine, Jess, and Shannon decided to warm up by dancing. After about an hour a slow song came on. Kristine walked off the dance floor. She turned around for two seconds and when she turned back Jess was dragging Ron toward her.
"You two are dancing together," Jess said, dragging Kristine and Ron onto the dance floor. Knowing Jess they had no choice but to dance, besides, neither of them was complaining.
"So, Jess told me she told you that I like you," Kristine said quietly, swaying in time with the music.
"Yes, And I suppose she told you what I said."
"Yup," Kristine sighed as light reflected in Ron's eyes.
Kristine then did something completely out of character. She asked Ron if he wanted to go out with her.
"I'd like that," said Ron, smiling.
While Kristine and Ron had been dancing, Shannon had forced Jess to ask Harry to dance. When both of her friends were finally dancing happily, she finally had a chance to talk to Draco alone. She too did something out of character then.
"Wanna go make out?" she said, turning to Draco.
"Sure," he said.
Both headed to the back of the room where there was a closet. They slipped in unnoticed. Or so they thought. About a minute after they closed the door it was yanked open. Standing on the other side was-
"Wyman," the pair said in horrified unison.
Mr. Wyman stood in front of the closet. They could tell he was angry but he didn't want to show it.
"Go back to the dorms. Now. I'm going to talk to you in the morning. In the meantime go to sleep," Wyman said.
Seeing that their friend was being forced to go, Jess and Kristine dragged Harry and Ron out the door to meet Draco and Shannon.
"Shannon. I'm surprised. Going with Draco and making out in a closet," said Kristine.
"It was her idea. She asked me if I wanted to snog," remarked Draco.
"You did?" asked Jess.
All she got in response was an evil grin.
"I think you're rubbing off on her, Malfoy," said Kristine with a laugh.
"How so?" asked Shannon.
"I don't know. All I know is that I want to go to bed right now," Kristine yawned.
Everyone went down to the game room except for Ron and Kristine. They rode the elevator upstairs and Ron walked her to her room.
"Goodnight," he said, kissing her.
"Night," said Kristine with a smile as she opened the door to her room. Closing it she sighed. This was turning out to be the best band camp ever.
