What happens when you join the Marching Band? You play music of course, but there are also the band romances that make you stop and think. Maybe Danny will find more than just a friend.

Danny is a musician at heart. Everyone in her family plays an instrument. Her Freshman year is coming up and she has to decide what to play and what to be in. Around April a sign-up sheet for Marching Band shows up on her doorstep. Signing up, she doesn't realize what she has gotten herself into. 

Jackson comes from a line of trumpets and other horn players. He was expected to join Marching Band as did his older brother Chase. He signed up and prepared for the first day of practice. 

On the first day of band camp, no one expected to be worked so hard in their life. Danny joined the Drumline and marched the second bass. Jackson played trumpet. 

The two will meet, but will their friendship become more? Read to find out!

That One Marching Band Romance: Movement One

"I'm sorry. I'm here now. I'm so sorry, Danny, really," I tried not to cry as I spoke. 


"No. You don't get to do this after ghosting me for a month! I can't forgive you for all those times I needed your support, but all I got in return was your stupid voicemail! You were supposed to be there for me, taking it one day at a time, but instead, you decided it was 'too much!' You know what?!----" 


Tears started forming in my eyes, "Danny, wait----" 


"No! No more waiting! I'm sick of waiting! We're done!" she turned and walked out of the band room. I stood there. Numb. Tears rushed down my cheeks and I braced myself against the lockers. 


"What have I done?" I covered my face and sobbed. I wiped off my face and went back to practice. 


"Jackson! Focus! Now!" I snapped into attention and we redid the closer again. Harry ended rehearsal an hour later and I grabbed my stuff and rushed to find Chase.
