"Now you see part of working anywhere is that sometimes who have to work with people you don't know." Prof. Winston explained as class was about to end. Luna held in sigh she knew where was going. "So your next assignment will be a group project and I have assigned the groups. You will be in groups of two. The assignment is to help memorize all the scales by the end of next week. I'll email the partner list tonight."
Luna was sort of relieved. It wasn't project. Now that she thought about it, what kind of projects could be done in music theory. Sure there could be a project for anything but music theory seemed like on of the hardest class to make unique projects for. But thinking about it Pro. Winston never said the word project so it could have been excepted.
Luna looked around her classroom. Music theory was one of her larger classes that wasn't in a lecture hall. She barely knew anyone in the class so she didn't know what to except.
"Wow the dreaded group project already." Melody said leaning against the wall."Hope you don't get one that makes you do all the work."
"Well our assignment is to memorize the twelve scales." Luna explained from her desk he laptop was open as she did some work for a different class. "So it will be pretty obvious who didn't do anything."
"You have an advantage Luna." Melody moved to lay down on her bed. "You're a music major you have most if not all of those scales memorized already."
"I wouldn't exactly say memorized." Luna opened her email. "Wow that was fast."
"What was fast?" Melody asked very curious of what was going on.
"My professor already sent the email with the partner list." Luna said looking at it. She clicked it opened and started to read the partners. It took a bit but she found hers. "No."
"What happen?" Melody sounded unamused as started to get off the bed.
"I think I got Isaac's bully as my partner." Luna started at the name is disgust.
"That seems impossible." Melody walked over and looked at the screen. The name Buck Moss was right nest to the name Luna Loud. "You know there's a chance it isn't be him. Issac never said his last name."
"I don't know bra. I just have that feeling in my gut that it's him and my gut has a tendency of being right." Luna glared looking at the name some more. "Even the name Buck Moss sounds annoying."
"Yeah it lacks the good ring like Luna Loud, Aria Macintosh." Melody paused for a moment. "What are Isaac and Ethan's last names."
"I'm not sure what Ethan's last name is but Issac's last name is Tyler and I think Aria once mention Damon's last name is Felton." Luna explained as she closed the email. She couldn't stand to look at her partner's name anymore.
"Issac Tyler and Damon Felton have good rings to them too! Buck Moss has nothing."
"Are you going to keep going off about how his name sounds?" Luna asked looking at her but remained smiling. If anyone deserved to have their name made of it was him. Though she would feel bad if the Bucks were different people. "I guess I won't find out until Wednesday."
When Wednesday arrived Luna took a bit more time than usual to arrive to class. She made sure she wasn't late but she was not eager to find out if Buck Moss was Isaac's bully. She just couldn't stand people like him. Thinking they were better than others simply because one was disabled. Luna kept thinking to herself "Buck is picking on Issac because he's jealous Issac is so smart." It was the only way she could and would remain sane. Especially if he was her partner. Once at her desk Luna kept her face forward until Prof. Winston started class.
"Okay everyone today we will start work on the group assignment." Prof. Winston gave a smile which both surprised and worried Luna. "Today you will create sentences to try to remember the twelve major scales. If your sentence is creative enough you may get extra points. You do have time to refine them"
Immediately the students started grouping up. It was obvious which groups already knew each other by how they were acting with each other. It did seem like a few of the groups had met up after receiving the partner list. Those groups didn't introduce themselves but they weren't as comfortable as the groups who knew each other beforehand.
"How did I know I was with you." Luna cringed that voice sounded familiar. She slowly turned her head and sure enough Buck Moss was that Buck. "Come on you don't have to be shy. We can be friends."
"So are you a music major?" Luna asked trying to sound as least awkward as she could.
"Nah I'm just taking it as an elective." Buck sat in the desk next to Luna and started to get comfortable in his seat. It seemed like it was a little too comfortable.
"Okay do you know the twelve scales?"
"Are you sure there's not eight? Because there is only eight in that weird musical alphabet what's with this?" Buck didn't seem to care that much about the assignment.
"The twelve concert pitch scales are C, F, B flat, E flat, A flat, D flat, F sharp, B, E, A, B, and G." Luna start to explain though she annoyed that Buck wasn't paying attention in class. "I went by order flats are added. Most bands start with the B flat scale."
"You sound like Isaac." Buck interrupted Luna and she scowled at him. "No wonder you're friends with him you're both weird."
"Okay Buck, I know we started out on the wrong foot." Luna stated as calmly as she could. She may not like Buck but she didn't want to be rude to him. "But maybe we could focus n the project. I don't want you to fail this class."
"It's memorizing scales how important it could be?" Buck clearly didn't care about the assignment or class at all.
"Buck we need to focus on creating a sentence." Luna was started to get angry.
"Okay." Luna sighed in relief. Buck did care a little.
"This thing is stupid." Buck said before laughing. Immediately Luna glared at him and some of the nearby classmates looked over and did the same thing. Luna could tell most people were music majors by how hard they were glaring.
"Maybe something like." Luna pulled out a sheet of paper and started to write. "Celebrities, flaunt."
"Their boobs!" Buck said before laugh and Luna needed a break.
"I'll be back I need to use the bathroom." Luna said as she stood up. With out another word she left the room. Thankfully Prof. Winston had a policy where you could leave to go the bathroom. The only stipulation was you had to be gone for a reasonable of time.
Luna walked to the band bathroom. She didn't care that it was on the bottom floor, she needed to be gone as long as possible. Once there she sat in silent calming down as much as she could. There was no way she was going to let that albiest get the better of her. She was sure that Buck was saying those things to annoy her. If he thought he was better than Isaac, boy he had another thing coming. Luna was going to make sure she was going to pass this assignment and wasn't going to stop her.
"Okay Buck do you have anything written down?" Luna asked once she got back. She sat down and saw no changes on the paper.
"Eh I figured you'd have something." It was going to be a long class.
"So it?" Melody asked as Luna walked in from her class.
"Yes and he's even more annoying than I thought." Luna climbed on her bed and collapsed. "I honestly want to find a way to make him fail but I don't want to fail."
"Why don't you put no effort in class?" Melody asked.
"I'm sure Prof. Winston will ask us how much we met and I don't want to lie to her. She scares me."
"Eh better than my Basic of Democracy professor. He has the monotone voice ever. I want to fall asleep during every lecture." Melody leaned back on her chair. It looked like she was falling asleep thinking about it.
"I'd rather have a monotone professor than spend anymore time with Buck." Luna admitted. She looked over at her ax but didn't want to get of her bed. She was tired from her last class. Then it hit her she got a wonderful idea that would hopefully put Buck in his place. She grabbed her phone and sent an email.
"Oh I love the devious look Luna." Melody said with a smile.
Luna sent the email and laid back her bed. "This is for how many of bullying."
