Let the Music Play Chp. 12

Printer-friendly version

Lindsey listens as the girls play their instruments. It has been two weeks since she has taken over being their instructor. She found that two hours a day wasn’t enough for the girls. So, she increased it to four hours with the girl’s parent’s permission.

The girls wanted to be good enough to send in an audition video to the company sponsoring the band competition. Lindsey listens as the girls play the Heart song, she first heard them playing. They were getting good with it, but they still needed more work.

“You girls are doing good, but you need more practice. Let’s continue and we’ll call it a night.” Lindsey knew the girls must be tired from practicing.

“Okay.”

The girls start from the beginning again and put more effort into the song than last time. By the time they finished. They were tired and ready to call it a night.

“That was better, ladies. You need to put that type of effort into your music practice all the time. Now, go ahead and pack up your instruments and we’ll continue this again tomorrow when you get home from school.”

The girls all moan when Lindsey says that. They were hoping to have some me-time. They put their instruments away and leave the garage they have been practicing in.

Lindsey walks home and notices when she walks into the house, that Kaja and Tessa were working on their schoolwork. Normally, Tessa was out with her boyfriend or other friends.

“Well, this is a surprise.”

“I know. How is your girl band doing?” Tessa knew Lindsey has been teaching a girl band.

“They are getting there. A few more weeks and they will be ready to send in a video for the competition they want to enter.” Lindsey hopes the girls keep up the dedication they have shown so far.

“You know, this is like the other band you helped.”

“It’s different this time. I’m using what I have been learning to be a conductor to teach these girls.”

“Well, if you succeed, Brenda will have another band she can add to our label.” Kaja was hoping the girls will want to be on a record label.

“Why don’t we leave that up to the girls. I think they have something else in mind.” Lindsey knew the girls had other ideas.

“You should sell the idea to them, Lindsey.” Kaja knew Lindsey didn’t like pushing ideas onto people.

“I’ll think about it.” Lindsey heads towards hers and Kaja’s bedroom and strips out of the clothes she wore to school.

She was going to keep her current course schedule until next semester. Next semester, she’ll cut down on what courses she’ll be taking. Once she is undress, she heads into the bathroom and takes a nice relaxing bath.

“Mind if I join you?” Kaja comes walking in after a few minutes.

A smile appears on Lindsey’s face “no, not at all.”

Kaja walks in and gets in the tub behind Lindsey. She wraps her arms around Lindsey’s body as Lindsey rest against her body. She notices Lindsey had shaved her groin area bald.

“When did you start shaving your groin area?” Kaja liked how bald and child-like Lindsey’s groin area looked.

“Yesterday, I thought you might like it.” Lindsey guides Kaja’s hand down to her groin area.

“Maybe I should shave mine, as well.”

“Let me trim it, for you. I have an idea in mind.” Lindsey had a wicked idea of how she wanted Kaja’s groin area to look.

The next hour Kaja and Lindsey spend in the tub. There was some fooling around, but mostly they wash each other’s hair and body. Afterward,
they head into the bedroom and crawl into bed.

Two Months Later:
Lindsey stands before the girls as they play, and they were sounding good. She couldn’t believe how much improvement the girls had progressed. She bought a custom-made bass guitar that had been built by Richard Bachmann that she saw in a pawnshop for Heidi.

Heidi’s father had didn’t want his daughter using his bass guitar so much. So, when Lindsey found out, she started visiting music stores and pawn shops. She saw the bass guitar hanging in the pawnshop with some dust on it.

She managed to get it for a decent price and gave it to Heidi. The sound that came from it was good. She was happy that Heidi loved it.

“Alright ladies, you are sounding good and I have arranged for you to play at one of the clubs my band plays at. You’ll be playing cover songs. So, I’ll need you to select at least two sets of songs to play. Also, have you decided on a band name, yet?”

“Yes, we settled on Paper Dolls.” Vicky and the girls had talked about it.

“Good. I’ll let the manager of the club know your name, so he can draw up the contract.” Lindsey was going to act as their manager for now,
before talking to Brenda.

“Now, let’s hear what you ladies can do.”

Lindsey sits back down on her favorite stool and listens to the girls play. The girls were big Heart fans, so they choose a few Heart songs to play. Afterward, they pick a few Spice girl songs, Bon Jovi, and a few others.

When it starts getting late, Lindsey ends the practice. She looks at the girls “you ladies are sounding extremely good. Let’s call it a night.”
Brandi looks at Lindsey “how do you want us to dress for our performance?”

“That’s up to you guys. Do you want to look all the same or do you want to have your own look?” Lindsey looks at all the girls.

“Our own look,” Heidi spoke for all the girls.

“Okay, tomorrow we will do some shopping and put together your own look.”

“Yes!” All the girls were happy.

When Lindsay gets done with them, but they will have what they need, and their own unique style.

Love Samantha Renée Heart.

Always interesting story topic

"band" seems to be a common theme among the writers at BCTS and surprisingly never seems to get overdone. For those who are familiar with True Romance stories, band seems to resonate with readers the same way as no one gets tired of reading about such.
LadyDragon6 has brought her own touch to the girl band stories which I find interesting. There is a price to pay when high schoolers form up a band. It must be a labor of love because money certainly isn't in the mix. With so many wannabe kids hoping to be the next superstar it's a crowed cutthroat business. Dreams are shattered on the rocks of reality for no matter how good they are it's more a chance of Lady Luck they will be recognized rather than their talent.

Bands

I think "bands" resonates with me just because I've read so many good stories here that revolve around bands.

On the other hand I actively look for stories that revolve around cheerleaders. I have no idea why. I do not think we had cheerleaders at our school. I did grow up reading stories about them. I don't think I would like being one. (I love dancing. That's close enough.) I think part of the reason is that there are also so many good stories here that involve cheerleaders.
