Hazel eyes watched as deft fingers slid over piano keys, drawing out an enchanting melody that seemed to call out to him. It was always a wonder for him to watch Ivy play, to hear her voice harmonizing with the chords she struck and how at peace she looked within her music. It was only once she was done that he made his presence known with a quiet cough, hoping that it wouldn’t disturb her. “Is that a new one? It was beautiful.” He never quite knew what to say, how to describe the emotions that passed through him with a song, so simple honesty would have to do. A soft hum sounded from his lips as he moved to sit on the edge of the piano bench. “I put on one of your albums while I was examining this little tabby -- she was real skittish but I swear -- as soon as I played it, your music calmed her down enough for me to treat her.”
