"So, you're new to this, huh?" I ask her on the bus ride. Today's the big day: Audition Day. Every year us band kids have to load in on a bus; horny, and stressed out of the country. At the end of the day it's not that cool to be part of the regional group. It is central Colorado, for Christ's sake- how good can you get? I've made it every single year since I've started high school, and it has always been the longest, most boring day of my life.
Blushing, she smiles and nods. At the beginning of this year's blizzard of a schedule, she told me to call her Jessi. After adding her on Facebook and mildly reading every post she's made since kindergarten, I discover she's originally from Oregon, and her full name is Jessi Blackson. Only a freshman, she is extremely shy around me, and has been for the last month. It is especially funny, cause we have almost every class together. However, the only class I have next to her is band.
Her brown eyes glisten with the light of joy. We sit in the uncomfortable bend chairs, nothing between us but our awkward personalities.
"It's not that bad. You're better than everyone there, and you've got so much more time to perfect your talent."
"Thanks, Camryn," she smiles at me with her tiny lips, her perfect hair falling to the sides. She's beautiful, but way out of my league. My crooked face smiles back and I bump into her playfully. She laughs, and says one last thing while the bus lurches to a stop in front of the Academy, "Ya know, there's somethin special about this. Stick around, ok?" She stands, grabs her bags, and walks off the crowded bus with the line of kids.
