“And some people are insane.” She giggled 

“Eh. Maybe a little.” He shrugged with a grin. 

[ediecoyne-oth-blog]

“You’re an asshole you know that?” She whispered, a smug half smile creeping across her face.

[henrythomasrp]

“I know.” He laughed. “Some people find it endearing.”

[sb-scott-blog]

“Let’s hope it just comes easier,” she chuckles, moving her fingers where he told her and doing as he instructed. 

[henrythomasrp]

“It depends honestly. Some people find it easier because there are fewer strings and the instrument is smaller. But also for the same reason, other people find it more difficult.”

[sb-scott-blog]

She took it from his hands and held it close to her, “Got it. Like this?” she asked glancing up at him.

[henrythomasrp]

“Yes! Absolutely!” He beamed at her. “Okay, so clearly it’s a lot smaller than the guitar and it only has 4 strings. Which make it easier and harder in it’s own ways. Now, put your fingers like this.” He said, showing her where to put her fingers on the frets. “And strum all four strings.”

[ediecoyne-oth-blog]

Edie wanted to close the distance but she was far too stubborn. She stood there, wondering what else she could say 

[henrythomasrp]

Henry didn’t say more, he just closed the distance between them, standing an inch from her face. 

[sb-scott-blog]

I’ve got plenty of it too.

[henrythomasrp]

“Perfect! Here, take this.” He said, handing her his Ukelele. “You gotta hold it close to your chest.”

[sb-scott-blog]

Oh I don’t want to take up your time right now, I can come back another day.

[henrythomasrp]

Non-sense. I’ve got plenty of time if you do. 

[ediecoyne-oth-blog]

“Starting to say words you shouldn’t. Talking about futures and shit.Trying to put labels on things.”

[henrythomasrp]

“That’s fair.” He said, daring another step closer. 

[sb-scott-blog]

Yeah, that would be awesome! I would love that.

[henrythomasrp]

Hell yeah! We are still recording my album so come by whenever you want or we could start now. 

[ediecoyne-oth-blog]

“.. Okay..” She was reluctant to be close to anyone, but she was starting to see that he wasn’t ever going to give up. “.But I reserve the right to run if you start getting too.. attached,,”

[henrythomasrp]

“Define attached?” 

[ediecoyne-oth-blog]

“I can’t promise to be sober.. or to know how the fuck anything like..” She gestured between the two of them “..This works..I’m a mess..”

[henrythomasrp]

“I don’t either. It’s not like I do relationships. But something about you makes me want to try. So we’ll figure it out together.”

Yeah, I do, so ukelele shouldn’t be too hard, just smaller.

[henrythomasrp]

Exactly! It’s pretty simple actually! I could teach you?

[ediecoyne-oth-blog]

“You really wanna know me?” Her voice shook as it raised, emotions finally seeping through. “I’m the daughter of two good for nothing junkie parents who never gave a rats ass. I grew up in a shit hole town with literally nothing. The only person I ever cared about was my sister and she was murdered. I’ve spent the past like seven years on the road shooting up and fucking boys in bands because what else am I good for. I am not some kind of magical manic pixi dream girl like you seem to think I am.”

[henrythomasrp]

He listened to her rant with a blank expression. “None of that scares me. None of that makes me want to run for the hills.” He said when she had finished, risking it and stepping a little closer to her. “I still think you’re beautiful. I still think you’re a good person. You’ve been through some shit. We all have. Some more than others but we all are born and we are all gonna die and we have this middle ground to just...live. And I for one wouldn’t mind spending some time with you.”

“You don’t even know me.” She tried to keep her exterior cold, her face as heartless as she could manage. 

[henrythomasrp]

“I want to.” He said, repeating what he always said when she said that.

I’ve never tried it before. So no, I guess not.

[henrythomasrp]

Know how to play guitar?

[ediecoyne-oth-blog]

She was busted and she knew it. Her only options were run, or show herself. She chose the latter, moving around the corner and coming face to face with him. “You always were a sap.” She scoffed, trying to keep her distance 

[henrythomasrp]

“Only for you.” He said, honestly. He didn’t know what to say. He knew he had really messed up with her but he didn’t know how to fix it.
