Hand shakes

'She's very pretty, I wonder if she's here for lessons. That would be great, then I could get to know her and she would get to know me and...oh, I wonder what her religious views are. Maybe she's also a Christian, oh man would that be perfect. I think she's great.'
"Yes Cattelie, I uh, I think I got it." Harold stammered. "Oh, um, say, Cattelie, this is my uh, music teacher, Mr. Blant. Mr. uh, Blant, this is my cousin Cattelie and uh, someone else." Harold said stepping aside so that George and Cattelie could see each other.
George snapped out of his trance like state. "Hi Ms. Cattelie, it's nice to meet you." He said as he held out his hand for her to shake it. He then turned to that pale-skinned girl standing there looking so lovely.
"And you are?" He asked with his hand still held out.

First Look

"Alright, Harold, I'm here to tell you directions to the Jay manor. It's only a few blocks away. Just go straight until you hit Nock drive, turn left, and it's the big house on the left. Do you think you can get there by yourself?" Cattelie said, all the words rushing out of her mouth. She had other things to do then make sure her cousin got to her house safely.
Ebony raised her eyebrows. Why was Cattelie babying a grown man? Surely he was perfectly capable of doing things himself. Though, he did look quite nervous and timid. Perhaps he was the dependent type.

Mr. Macdev's Guitar

"The concert is the next Saturday at the Grey Rock Park and I would like for you to be there at 10 in the morning so that we can do a quick run through and get everyone ready. You think you can do that?" George asked Mr. Macdev while helping him get his music gathered.
"Uh...Um, well yeah, I guess I could, um, do that." Mr. Macdev replied as he got the last of his music. "And, um, thanks again Mr. Blant, for asking me."
"It's no problem at all, I'm very happy that you are able to do it." George said smiling as he opened the door.
As Mr. Macdev walked down the stairs George turned around and sighed. Mr. Macdev had left his guitar case on the stool.
'Oh Mr. Macdev.' George thought as he picked up the guitar case and proceeded to quickly walk down the stairs to make sure he got to Mr. Macdev before he left. "God, please be with Mr. Macdev and help him be more careful about not leaving his stuff places, that could end really badly for him.'
George made it down the stairs just in time to see Mr. Macdev realize he had left his guitar upstairs. He turned around and smiled a nervous smile when he saw that George had already brought it down for him. George smiled back and handed Mr. Macdev his guitar and out of the cornor of his eye he saw the most beautiful fair-skinned girl he had ever seen in his entire life.

Picking up cousins.

Cattelie then glanced down at her watch, her expression then changing to worried.
"Oh no! I have to go pick up my cousin." She said, her brow furrowing.
Ebony raised her eyebrows, "Would you like some company?"
"If you would like to. Unless, of course, you have something else you need to do." Cattelie said, not wanting Ebony to procrastinate doing nessecary things.
Ebony shook her head, "Nope. I'm not doing anything till' two." She replied, but Cattelie was already half way down the street. Ebony hurridily went to catch up with her friend.

Do Re Mi

George got off the bus and walked down the street to the building that held his office.
"Good morning Mr.Macdev you're here early." George said as he walked into his room.
"Heh, I guess I am. I didn't think you would mind, I'm always late and miss some of my lesson, so I got here early to be sure I didn't. Do you mind?" Mr.Macdev asked rapidly.
"No, no Mr.Macdev, I don't mind at all. Go ahead and pull out your guitar and we can get started now." George said as he pulled out some music. "You know Mr.Macdev, I'm putting together a concert for some of my students to preform at, and I was wondering if you would like to play some of the songs you are praticing at the concert."
"Oh. Mr. Blant, are you sure you would want to pick me? I'm sure you have much better students than me." Mr.Macdev said as he broke a string.
"I'm sure." George replied reassuringly as he pulled out a guitar string from his guitar case for Mr.Macdev.

First Morning.

The sun radiated a warm glow, showers of heat floating down. Ebony smiled as the heat touched her face, arms, and legs. It felt more than wonderful to be outside, the forest just a mile away from her house.
Ebony turned toward the town, only to run into a petite, brunette girl with a small smile on her lips.
"Good morning, Ebony" She greeted.
"Oh. Good morning to you too, Cattelie. I didn't know you came out this early. Doesn't your family keep you cooped up 'till noon?" Ebony asked, smirking. Though Cattelie was a good friend of hers, she couldn't help but tease the girl.
Cattelie's smiled dropped, "You know better than anyone that that wasn't my parents." She said.
"Oh, right, of course. I'm sorry. That was your dearest Ian keeping you in so long." Ebony's expression then turned from playful to sympathetic. "How long will he be gone?"
"A few more months. Though, I have to admit, it feels like we've been apart for years." Cattelie sighed, pain clear in her voice.

In A Galxay Far Far Away...

George rolled over, hit the snooze button and rolled back over. A few minutes later and the alarm clock went off again and George repeated the same roll over, hit, roll back over routine.
"George, seriously, so we have to do this every morning? Get up already." His roommate and best friend called.
"I'm getting up Cain, don't worry about it." He responded
'Thank the LORD for Cain,' George thought, 'I would not get to work on time without him.'
George sat up and stretched and then proceeded to the bathroom to shower and fix his hair. Once every hair was finally in place the way he liked it he went down the hall to the kitchen for a breakfast of scrambled eggs and bacon. After breakfast he picked out his clothes for the day and headed out the door of his apartment to go to work as a music teacher.
