ever since she was a little girl, aiyla dreamed of taking piano lessons. it wasn't a luxury her single mother of two could afford back then. now, her mother was happily remarried to a man that could provide such luxuries; the bonus being that they didn't even have to hire someone as he had offered to teach her himself. it had only been a few months but, aiyla was starting to get the hang of it. she could read sheet music well, and match notes to keys, and was slowly learning when to press the sustain pedal... but, in that time, aiyla had also learned that her step-father was a very hands on teacher. the brunette would never admit it, but every time his fingers grazed hers it gave aiyla these almost nauseating butterflies. she also tried desperately to ignore the way his thigh resting against hers made her mind go fuzzy, or how the tone of his voice when he complimented her would send warmth pooling between her legs.... but aiyla always believed that it was just nerves. the driving and incredible need to impress him and make him proud.
❛ did that sound right ?? ❜ she inquired gently, hesitating to carry on until he had approved what she had played thus far, insecurity swelling in her stomach. doe eyes turned to look up at his face, which was incredibly near hers, the smell of his cologne so deliciously pungent it made her nose wrinkle. she could feel the warmth of his hand grazing the bare skin of her thigh but ... she willed herself not to draw attention to it, trying to focus instead on the task at hand. ❛ i dont... i don't know if that sounded right... ❜
