Erin's POV

Geez, how muck longer can this be? Speaking Of bee...Ah! Amber's being attacked by a bee. Go Bee! Go! Kick her fucking ass.

As time goes by we finish the fundamentals for the day and go back into the band room. All the bandies are sitting in with their sections with Ms. Wallace on the podium.

"If you look at the bored you will see the name of your instrument and out beside that is what room you will be in. You have five minutes to get to that room before sectionals start."

Trumpets. Trumpets where are we? Voila!

"Sweet! Guys his year we are in here instead of the chorus room!"

"Yeah. Trumpets Rock!"

"Dennis? Aren't you supposed to do drum major stuff instead this year?"

"I'm staying with you guys today."

"Okay."

Mark takes the podium now. And everyone sits down according to their parts with their trumpets in hand.

"Okay. Let's first tune. Play the b flat scale in whole notes."

C---- D---- E---- F---- G---- A---- B---- C---- B---- A---- G---- F---- E---- D---- C----

"Okay. Let's do it individually. Starting with…"

"David Allen."

"That's right. Give me a couple days and I will know all your names."

All of us play and we sound great, of course. What do you expect I mean trumpets are the best section in the band. The band would be nothing without us.

"Now that we are all in tune let's work on The National Anthem. Horns Up."

"1…2…3…4…1…2…"

Oh, say, can you see, by the dawn's early light, What so proudly we hail'd at the twilight's last gleaming? Whose broad stripes and bright stars, thro' the perilous fight, 'er the ramparts we watch'd, were so gallantly streaming? And the rockets' red glare, the bombs bursting in air, Gave proof thro' the night that our flag was still there. O say, does that star-spangled banner yet wave. O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave?

" That wasn't too bad for our first time. But let's work on the middle sectional…"

Blal. Blah. Blah. Yeah I can play this. I've been playing it for years now. Hell. I'm banner carrier this year. It doesn't even matter if I can play this or not. Ummm…..Maybe he will let me slide by with not playing.

"Um…excuse me. But since I'm banner carrier can I slide by with not playing?"

"No. Why would you even ask that?"

He's A Dumbass.

"Well sir. I came to the conclusion that since I'm the banner carrier I shouldn't have to play. And besides we need to make sure that these kids can play without me."

"No. You still have to play anyway."

"Boo! Boo! Boo to you!"
