This was for school, but I liked the idea, so I decided to make a longer version, this is the short version, I'll make the longer one later:
Josh was a thirteen year old boy with blue eyes, a nice smile, and was very tan. His girlfriend was about the same, except she had a secret she never told him. They both were at a restaurant talking about Josh’s band.
“We’re going to perform for the school on Monday,” said Josh.
She ordered her muscles to relax, forcing first her shoulders to go limp then her neck and jaw. “That’s great! I’m so proud of you!” Josh’s girlfriend named Jane exclaimed.
“I’m too nervous!” Josh admitted.
“You’ll do fine, just don’t worry about it,” said Jane smiling.
“Okay…” said Josh.
“And hey, if you mess up, it won’t be the end of the world, right?” Jane said.
“Yeah, I guess so,” said Josh.
After an hour Josh and Jane went back to their houses and went sleep. But it was harder for Josh to fall asleep because he was still thinking about getting up on the stage in front of about five hundred people, and he knew some of them too. If Josh messed up they would make fun of him ‘til he graduated, and it was the beginning of seventh grade, so he didn’t want that.
Josh did fall asleep after awhile, but even his dreams haunted him.
The next day Josh didn’t wake up ‘til about 8:00, and his school started at 8:45. Josh realized what time it was and darted down the stairs. Josh saw Jane in the kitchen, and wondered why she would be at his house forty five minutes away from school.
“Hey, my mom made something for you,” said Jane.
Josh looked at the table to see that her mother had made of coffee.
“Good luck at the performance!” Jane said to Josh. She kissed him and then left for school.
Josh didn’t really want coffee, so he just had nothing which was bad. He walked to school still thinking of how bad he would do. He finally arrived after thirty minutes to see his band greeting him. There was Tom on electric guitar and he was the lead singer, Harry on the drums, and Mike on the bass. Josh played the electric guitar and was a background singer.
“Josh!” exclaimed Tom. “We thought you might’ve not made it!”
“Well… I did!” Josh said.
“Get ready, we go on in fifteen minutes!” Tom told the whole band, but it was mainly to Josh.
Josh’s stomach felt sick again, but he looked confident.
“Which song should we play?” questioned Mike.
“How about one of our songs,” said Harry.
“Okay, how about “A Dreadful Place Called School,” Tom suggested.
The band agreed and after fifteen minutes of waiting they went on the stage. Josh looked at the cheering crowd. Once the clapping died out Tom sang. Josh had a really big guitar solo in this song and thought he might not do it right, but then he looked at Jane’s face and knew he could.
Tom ended the first verse which meant that it was time for Josh’s solo. He plucked the guitar and it made a disturbing noise. Tom didn’t know what was up with Josh so he decided just to go no with the second verse.
After another minute it was time for Josh’s second solo. Josh knew he was going to let his band down, but then he started playing it right. He didn’t know how, it seemed like he wasn’t even moving his arms, and it was better than his real solo. Josh smiled and started making cool postures with his guitar. The band was happy and Tom sang even better than usual the next verse.
It was over after another minute. The phone rang eleven times, and then a teacher hang it up. Josh wondered if it was about his band, but forgot about it after a familiar voice came towards him.
“You did it!” Jane exclaimed happily as she hugged him.
“Yeah, but I didn’t think I did it, like someone else was doing it for me,” Josh said.
“What do you mean?” asked Jane.
“I don’t think I was moving my arms, like someone else was,” Josh admitted.
“I gotta tell you something, but you can’t tell anyone else, got it?” Jane said.
Josh nodded.
“I’m a witch,” Jane said.
Josh laughed.
“You don’t believe me?” questioned Jane.
“One, that’s impossible. Two, you can’t even play the guitar!” Josh said with a laugh.
“Oh really?” said Jane. She took the guitar out of his hand and played one of the coolest tunes Josh ever heard.
“Now do you believe?” said Jane as she gave him back his guitar.
Josh gaped. “That’s impossible!” Josh exclaimed.
“Wanna ride my broom?” asked Jane.
“Totally!” Josh said happily. “Oh wait, we’re still in school.”
