This is a tough position for a young person like yourself to be in, of course you don't want your friend to be hurt. *IF* (and I say *IF*) there is something going on, this is as much a case of a pedophile preying on the young as it would be if it happened to be a boy flute player--a minor is a minor. A 16 year old girl in band being victimized by a band director or a 16 year old choir boy being victimized by a priest are *children* and adults are supposed to teach them or take care of them, not sexually exploit them.
