"What do you mean you're quitting?" Brick asked.

It was was 1:45 and time was running out before the game started. And now she decided to bring up this strange news.

Robin slightly turned away and played with her hair. "I just have other things to do right now." She replied.

"But right before the game?" he added, and then he looked her over again. "And please tell me what happened to you."

"I told you... I tripped while coming here."

"Oh please, Robin. You know that's a lie. Just tell me who hurt you."

Robin was started to get annoyed. "Nobody hurt me. Okay!"

Tears started to form in her eyes, but she quickly wiped them away before Brick could notice them.

"Listen... Can you please tell the band director that I quit?"

Brick finally gave up questioning her. There was no use in continuing on. The girl was just as stubborn as him. "Fine, I'll tell him."

Robin smiled and gave him a wink. "Thanks. I'll see you later." She then ran into a crowd of students.

Brick ran the events over and over in his head. He still didn't know why Robin wanted to quit. It was so suddenly, that it didn't make any sense. While he was pondering about this very though, a single question emerged in his mind.

"Wait!" he yelled to the crowd of students, hoping that Robin would hear him. "Who's going to be the new Head Majorette?"

"Hey, Brickie!"

When Brick heard that voice, he was almost afraid to turn around. But he did and what he saw made him physically sick.

Princess stood in front of Brick wearing the Head Majorette uniform. It was the same uniform that the other four majorettes had, but this one had a short cape coming off the shoulder. She spun around and grinned.

"How do you like the new outfit? It really becomes me. Don't you think?"

Brick glared at her and asked a single question. "What did you do to her?"

Princess covered her mouth and pretended to be surprised. "Whatever do you mean Brick?"

Rage filled up within the young Drum Major as Princess continued to fool around with him.

"You know exactly what I mean... What scam did you pull on Robin to make her give up her position?"

Princess smiled at him. "Robin? Like I'll ever waste my precious time on that piece of trash. That whore probably fell on her face while chasing after some boy."

"You're disgusting." Brick responded, his glare intensifying.

"Oh, Brick! Stop it, you're flattering me!"

Princess turned around and began to walk away. "I'll be waiting for my kiss, sweetie..."

"How about a slap instead..."

Princess stopped in her tracks and stormed back over to Brick. "Oh, so you think you're all bad now!" She pointed to her cheek. "If you're so bad, then do it! Do it right here!"

Brick slowly lifted up his hand. He was so tempted to end all of this with a single horizontal motion of his hand to her face. But he stopped himself.

"What's wrong? You scared?" She asked with a grin.

Brick smiled back at her. "No. I just don't think it's my place to slap you. I'll let someone else do it for me."

Princess chuckled. "Who? I run this whole school. Everyone is under my control."

"Oh, I know a couple of people who want first swing at you."

"Please. Those dirty color guard girls? They're a bunch of whores and sluts."

"You're the last person who needs to be calling someone a slut. I know how you get your straight A's, and let me just say it involves you being on your knees."

Princess was left speechless. Nobody has ever called her out like that before. She was beyond embarrassed. "H-how dare you! Have you been telling people that?!"

"I only told a couple of my band mates and my brothers, but everyone knows Butch can't keep a secret."

"Ahh!" Princess yelled out. "I-I can't believe this! You are going to pay for that, and your little girlfriend is too!" She gave Brick one last disgusted glare before she stormed off and joined the other majorettes.

Girlfriend? Who was she talking about? I hope she didn't mean Robin. We're just good friends, thought Brick.

He shrugged it off and went to put on his Drum Major uniform. He couldn't wait to brag about his victory against Princess with his friends.


It was early into the second quarter and Brick and his friends were hanging out at the sidelines waiting for halftime. It was close to 3:30 and the sun was blazing. It was ridiculous how hot it could get in September, especially when you have a thick band uniform on. But the three friends had to tough it out as always. It wasn't like they had a choice in the matter.

"Wow, Brick. You really showed her. What happened next?" asked Nigel Uno. A British boy wearing dark sunglasses on. He was also the section leader of the tubas or the sousaphones as he liked to call them.

Brick wiped the sweat off of his forehead. "Nothing much. She just ran off saying that I'll pay."

"Mmm." That's interesting... I thought Princess was rather… unintelligent." said Double D. A boy with dark hair and dark brown eyes. He was a percussionist, specializing in the marimba and the steel guitar. He was also the Co-Captain. He took Brick's place when he was sick.

Brick got himself a bottle of water and took a sip. "Yeah, she's an idiot when it comes to school, but she's a genius when it comes to sabotage and blackmail."

"Someone should really teach that bitch a lesson." said Nigel.

"Yeah, hopefully someone else will take her place." Brick replied.

The whistle blew to end the second. The score was tied at an even 14 points. It was now time for the halftime show.


"I guess that wasn't that bad." Blossom admitted. "I didn't know Boomer and Butch was on the football team."

"Duh, Butch is the quarterback and Boomer is one of the receivers." Replied Buttercup.

"Is the quarterback the one who catches the ball?

Buttercup wiped her face in annoyance. "Geez. Now you sound like Bubbles. Where have you been all your life? Under a rock?"

"No. At the library."

"What's the difference?"

Blossom ignored her sister and pointed out to center field. "Hey! The band's here!"

Buttercup stood up. "Well, I'm out."

"How come?" Blossom asked confused.

"No one really watches the band show. This is the time where everyone gets snacks, goes to the bathroom and all that good stuff."

"Well, I'm staying here to watch."

"Suit yourself. Do you want anything from the food stand?"

"A diet soda will be fine."

"Diet? Are you serious?"

"Just get it."

Buttercup shrugged her shoulders and went on her way, while Blossom turned back around to watch the band march on the football field. They were already set up in a simple box formation with their horns at attention.

"Hello fellow students! It's your principal Mrs. Utonium!

Blossom buried her face in her hands. Here we go again, she thought.

"And don't forget about me!" yelled a cheerful young boy.

"Bradley, please sit down."

"What's up everyone! Brad Utonium in da house!"

"Bradley Charleston Utonium! Sit down and give me that microphone. Don't make me tell your father."

The whole stadium burst into laughter. Even the band on the field was trying their hardest not to break attention. Blossom looked around her to find people whispering and pointing at her. At that point she wanted to kill herself. She hated when mom brought her eight year old half-brother, Bradley to the press box. He always found some way to embarrass her.

A couple of more seconds of bickering and Mrs. Utonium finally managed to get the microphone from her son.

"I'm sorry about that. Now where was I? Oh, yes. Now introducing our Mighty Monster Marching Band!"

A whistle was blown and the whole band stepped aside leaving a single aisle in the center of the field.

"And now introducing our Drum Major, Brick Whales!"

Brick stepped out with his baton held high. His white drum major uniform really stood out against the rest of the band's black ones. Blossom could see him clearly and she blushed at the sight of him.

"And our Head Majorette, Robin-... wait what? Oh, there seems to be a change in the lineup. Everyone please welcome our new Head Majorette, Princess Morbucks."

Princess walked out and executed a pose for the crowd and they cheered in response. Some of the color guard girls booed at her. But Princess just smiled and disregarded them .

Haters gonna hate, she thought as she follow behind Brick.

Brick looked over at the band director, he was furious. Mostly at the comments that came from the guard and the laughter from earlier.

He sighed. We are so getting extra laps for this.

Brick blew a whistle and the band began to play the school's fight song; a really fast and beat-up tune, that everyone in the stand recognized. He took Princess's hand and basically dragged her across the field. He just wanted to get this over with. The band continued to play while Brick rushed through the little dance routine with Princess. When the band was done, Brick began to climb up the podium. But Princess grabbed him by the cape and pulled him back down.

"How about my kiss?" she asked.

Brick glared at her. "I rather die in a fire."

Princess gave him a devious grin."Fine then."

She pulled Brick close to her and forcefully kissed him on the lips. Brick jerked back and pushed her away. The kiss only lasted two seconds, but it felt like two centuries to Brick. He turned around to see the whole stadium dead quiet, with all their eyes on him. Then he looked over to the band director. He was fanatically pointing to the podium gesturing Brick to continue, looking as angry as ever.

Princess walked away, feeling satisfied with her work, she smiled up at the crowd and took her place with the other majorettes.

Blossom was shocked. Did Princess just manage to kiss her potential boyfriend right in front of everybody? She blinked her eyes in confusion.

And she had the nerve to smile at me, she thought.

She quickly got up. She swore she was going to light a fuse if she had to stay here any longer. She felt angry, but at the same time she was distressed. She didn't know why she felt like this and she didn't know how to deal with it. This was the first time she had all these emotions swarming inside her all at once. It was most likely because she never liked someone as much as she liked Brick.

She was about to run off before someone tapped her on the shoulder.

"Hey, what did I miss?" Buttercup asked.

Blossom turned around to face her sister. "I'll tell you later..." She replied.

"Do you still want your soda?"

Blossom took the diet cherry soda out of her sister's hand.

"Thanks... I think I'm going to go home now."

Buttercup gave a look of concern. This was very unlike her to suddenly get up and leave. "Do you want me to walk with you?"

"No, I'm fine..."

Blossom got her purse and began her long walk out of the stadium. All while the sun was setting on that Friday afternoon...


Yeah... still doing this...
