One afternoon of a game day, there were about ten band kids hanging around the band room, all of whom were in marching band. They decided to resurrect their show from the previous season. The hornist played the drum major, the clarinetist marched her part. They also "played" concert band, where the make-believe band director conducted and attempted to keep the kids under control. These were the types of things that caused the band kids to nearly die of laughter.
Through the games of cards and Clue, the role-playing, the practicing, and everything in-between, she fell for him. She fell not harder, but deeper than she had ever fallen before. He was amazing- and so much more than she would ever be. Then one day, near the end of pep band season, he announced it to everyone: he was moving to the other side of the country at the end of the school year. She was broken-hearted and depressed, but… not nearly as much so as she had been the last time she had been left. He was leaving- and there was nothing that she could do about it.
