Madison and the Drum Kit

“Bye everyone!” Madison yelled as she walked out of the classroom. She grinned and waved at her friends, walking away from them slowly as they all walked in the other direction. She had told all of them that she had to go home after school and couldn’t hang out.

But the moment they were all out of sight, Madison returned to the classroom, giddy and excited. She quickly scanned the empty classroom for Sunny, even though he’d told them he was going somewhere after school, it didn’t hurt to make sure. Shrugging, Madison closed the door and carefully walked to where Li’l D’s drums were.

A wide grin was plastered on her face as she sat in front of them. She couldn’t wait to try and play them! She’d been watching Li’l D play a lot, and she was sure she could play them. But she suddenly frowned. “I forgot to get drumsticks!” She groaned, pouting as she realized she wouldn’t be able to play, even though she’d planned everything else. She had made sure Sunny wouldn’t be here, and that everyone would be gone for nothing!

Madison stood and began to walk away from the drum set when out of the corner of her eye she spotted Li’l D’s drumsticks! She quickly picked them up, eyes wide as she held them. ‘Oh, I guess I better go give these to him. He’d freak if he found out he left them!’ Madison thought as she began to walk toward the door

However, one look back at the drum set and she ran back, giddy and excited all over again. She would just play for a little bit. Then she would give them back! She sighed and took a deep breathe, raising the drumsticks above her head. A second later she was carefully playing, although it really sounded like she was just hitting random parts of the drum set.

Eventually she fell into a pattern and lost herself in the music as she repeatedly hit the same parts of the drum in the same order, trying to produce the same sounds. Minutes passed by, and Madison seemed to be lost the world as she laughed and smiled, hoping she looked as cool as she felt.
