"Oh."

Sasha turned introspective.

"Well, I like kissing you. Just.. the other parts are kind of um." Scary. "Well, you know. Nerve-wracking."

He snorted at that, glancing around for a good spot for them to settle, "Oh, believe me, I know it. But... well. I mean. Once you... you know. Get used to it it's not so bad... some of it is... is pretty nice. But I guess... I guess it's kind of like tickling, you know? Er. In like... it feels good but you're not sure if ah... you want a lot of it? I don't know." He adjusted his glasses, "But... but it is nice. Or can be." Apparently it can also be awful and horrific but... he didn't need to say that to Sasha.

"I don't.. I don't really like being tickled, Jerry."

"Me neither, really..." he chuckled quietly, scratching at the back of his shaggy head.

Especially considering tickling brought back memories of a certain somewhat traumatic time in a Haunted House. That had been when he first asked Candace out as well.

Granted, he thought he was going to die of laughter, literally, but that was beside the point.

"Well," Sasha skipped ahead a ways, stopping at a small grassy spot, "I mean. I guess I'm kind of.. curious. Kind of. But," she paused, crouched, and opened the case that secured her flute.

"I mean, we don't ever have to like." She cleared her throat.

"Do it. Nobody is going to make us."

"No, definitely not unless... you know... you want to. Um. And... and I mean... if... if you um. W-wanted to um. I mean. Maybe when... when the dorms are cleared out and... and we have some privacy if... if you ever wanted to um... experiment..." He cleared his throat, easing himself down with the guitar on his lap, "I... I'd be um. A willing guinnepig for the curious Lifer?" He tried to hide his blush with an encouraging smile.

Sasha hummed softly as she wiped the flute down with the polishing cloth before assembling it.

"I don't know, I mean." Her cheeks were red, but she pressed on. "I wouldn't.. I wouldn't want to like. Make either of us uncomfortable, you know? Neither of us like being tickled, and um. Honestly, there's like. No rush. I mean, there was a funny feeling in my belly when we were kissing earlier, but."

Her cheeks felt aflame.

"Then you. Uh. Well. You remember."

The flute was ready for action, and Sasha held it aloft.

"What do you want to play?"

"I um. I'm sorry about that," He settled down to double checking the tuning on the guitar even though it was plenty alright. "I... I won't do something like that again, I promise." Unless she wanted him to. "Um. Unless... unless you know... you wanted me to."

Right. Right. Music. "Um... you could... could start with something you know and I can see if I know it too? If not I'm sure I could fake it," He offered an encouraging smile.

Sasha pursed her lips and fell silent, finding the topic a little ... well, awkward, yes, but mostly just... curious. Not curious in a bad way, but.

Well.

Sasha felt like she'd said enough on the topic.

"No, no. You start. I um. I have an ear for rhythm. I can pick up most anything."

"Alright, then, challenge accepted!" There was a glint off of his glasses as he struck a chord.

His fingers danced, plucking out a tune of said challenge- not in complexity, but in tone, and the sneaky expression on his face.

Sasha laughed impishly, falling silent as she closed her eyes and listened to the tune he'd started to play. She lifted the flute to her lips; a long, long moment stretched out as Sasha intently soaked in the chords that Jerry played.

And then she began to play.

Note for note, chord for chord - perfectly harmonized - like the song was one she'd listened to a hundred times before.

Jerry's heart leaped into his throat at the swell of music, his mouth twisting into an even larger smile. He picked up the rhythm, adding in a flare here, a twist and twang of notes there, harmonizing with just as much ease as they pulled the music out of the air, bound it, and made it their's. He didn't know what song they were playing at that point. It didn't matter. It sounded beautiful.

He breathed deeply, fingers slipping from the strings with every strum to add in a tapping beat.

Sasha was lost in their shared harmony, eyes closed for a brief moment before she opened them again to watch Jerry play. It was wonderful, the music that they so effortlessly created together. While she played, Sasha couldn't help but hope that it was helping Jerry feel a little bit better about himself.

About music in general.

The lilting, airy music of her flute mingled with the twang of Jerry's guitar. It was the most beautiful thing that Sasha had ever heard.

Jerry's eyes were closed as he leaned into each strum, his breathing quick and deep. The melody leaped and danced, the harmony lunging and swirling to catch up in skips and jumps and taps of it's own. They juggled it, letting it create itself, they knew the theories, they knew the patterns, it was a game of combinations, a sweet, tender series of musical caresses suddenly discording into a dip of contrast, only to give one way or the other for musical control.

His heart was beating quickly, almost leaping out his throat in time to their music. His expression soft, relaxed, smiling, and flushed as though it had been them that had been dancing physically.

Sasha's music abruptly stopped when she caught sight of the expression on Jerry's face. He just looked.. happy. The last time she'd seen him look like that had been during the auditions - and that felt like such a long time ago.

Too long ago.

Lowering her flute, Sasha tilted her head at him and just smiled, a soft curve of her lips that mirrored his own.
