Lindsey: An unlikely Romance.

Chapter 1:

This story began about two years ago. I lived with my wife and two sons 18 and 15, in an upper middle class neighborhood. Both my boys go the the same high school, my oldest u in marching band, and my youngest is in orchestra. I do a lot of volunteer work for the school, I chaperone dances and even band camp at the end of summer. As a parent I was well respected among the teachers and staff, and among the other parents for that matter. Events would unfold that would jeopardize all of it, and change my life forever.

It was the start of band camp, and like usual I was to chaperone. Most of the boys were like my own. We got along great, I was like the fun uncle where the other chaperone dads acted like they hated being there.

It was a typical band camp, we had a new aspect to this years pit. A new student Lindsey, was a brilliant violinist! This gir was amazing! Tiny little thing who would blow your mind with her violin talent. She was given a solo just to showcase her abilities! They even re wrote their routine around Lindsey’s spectacular playing.

It was the last night of practice and Lindsey had got up on a podium in the pit, when I realized how attractive she was! Normally I would have just ignored this fact but something about her made it impossible. It was like watching a masterpiece at work on a masterpiece! I caught myself starring and quickly broke my focus on her and waved to my son who was way in the back and there was no way he could have seen me.

That night after lights out, all I could think about was Lindsey! It wasn’t so much sexual, as it was how all around impressive she was! She had a grace that was well beyond her years. I barely slept a wink.

The next morning was the end of band camp. All the parents were here for a brief demo then it was time to say good by.

My boys went home with their mother, it was hard to get my wife to do anything that wasn’t directly in her favor, but this she did every year.

I was saying goodbye to the other parents and teachers when out of the corner of my eye, I spied Lindsey waiting by the pay phone. She looked upset. I asked the girls chaperone if something was wrong with Lindsey. “She hasn’t really connected with anyone here, she doesn’t hang out with the other girls, she just sits by her self and doesn’t really talk much.” Karen her groups chaperone said.

It was later in the afternoon and most of the people were gone, Karen and I were the last chaperones left, tha last of the school staff was leaving with the equipment truck. I glanced back at the pay phone and Lindsey was still there. Karen came up to me, “Lindsey’s dad is running late and I have to go, do you mind waiting with her?” She asked. “That’s fine, I don’t have anywhere to be soon.” I told her.

Karen walked Lindsey over, “this is Mr Anderson, he’s going to stay here with you till your dad gets here.” She nodded and held out her hand and introduced herself. “Hello Mr Anderson, my name is Lindsey.” She said shyly. “Well glad to meet you Lindsey!” I said trying to be up beat, she clearly wasn’t in a very happy mood. Karen pulled away and it was just the two of us.

I decided to strike up a conversation about what type of music she liked, I found most teenagers like to talk your ear off about their favorite music if you pretended to be interested.
