"Thanks..." He glanced at the clock. "3pm...time for me to get ready for class. Steven may or may not be out of his room, it just depends on how hard he's decided to study...But you can have full run of the house while I'm gone, and if Steven gets to be too much of a pain, you're welcome to go into my room and lock the door."

"I shall. Even if I must pry my eyelids open to do so." He smiled and grabbed his backpack from his room. "I'll be back About 8. Please, make yourself at home. Whatever we have is yours too." He smiled and waved as he went out the door to class.

She stood at the door and watched until he was out of sight, then closed the door. She moved to the sofa and sat. She took a drink of the grape juice then tried calling again. When that failed she sighed and focused her posers. Her harp appeared in her hands. She positioned it in her lap, closed her eyes and played. She controlled the sound, keeping it quiet enough so as not to be heard by Steven as long as his music was on.
-------------------------------
Halfway to school A girl sprang over to Quiggly and planted a firm kiss on his lips. It wasn't until she pulled away that he would be be able to see, if he looked, the girl who had borrowed his phone when her car broke down.

Quigly turned seven different shades of red as the girl walked away. "Wow..." Several of his classmates started cheering for him.
Steven came out to get something to eat, stopping when he heard the harp music. "Yo chick, what is that thing you're groovin' on?"

The woman stopped and turned to face him, with a smile. "well, are you coming, big boy?" she asked, one brow arched.
--------------------
She took a long moment to try and decipher what he had said. "I believe you are asking what my instrument is?" she ventured. "It is a lap harp. I play it to relax myself, I hope it hadn't interrupted your studies..."

"I..I..uh...have class..." He stammered, some of his classmates snickered.
Steven grinned, "Nah, you didn't get me out of my room. My stomach's all hungry. I need fuel."

"After then? I wanted to take you out for dinner. As a thank you... for last time." she said silkily.

She smiled warmly. "Alright then."

"Sure...after then..." He smiled weakly, her voice drawing a blush up from somewhere in him.
He walked into the kitchen and got a bowl of cereal. "Dude! Look at the milk! It's all curdled-ly!"

"Do you wish me to get fresh milk then?" she asked.

Steven raised an eyebrow, "Well, if you're gonna get us some milk, some dough and some bodega knowledge usually helps."
