This is Just the Begining pt.1
“I pledge allegiance to the flag…” just another day at school, we all are standing to say the pledge of allegiance, except for me. I’m just standing and watching the blank gray board where the flag is pinned just above, I dose off and starts thinking about this weekend, I often do that on Fridays. “Mister Nicholson! I suggest you take a seat” I had dosed off and realized I’m the only one standing anymore, the class chuckles. I take a seat. Another thing I forgot to mention is my name, I’m Jacob that is.

So every year at my school we have this thing called musical deserts, it’s when people can play songs or sing while the audience gets to stuff their faces with deserts like cake or other pastries. Eric had a brilliant idea that we should play there, I didn’t want to but they did so I just went along anyways. So we did pretty well that night. Afterwards a dressed up man who I noticed earlier walks up to us, I yell “my mom told me never to talk to strangers!” Leo and Eric chuckle, I chuckle, he chuckles. He says to us “boys I am a talent artist, and I want to offer you something you couldn’t refuse,” I gulp and look at Eric and Leo, the man speaks again “I want you to make a CD with the help of Disney studios,”...
