The days back in Muswell Hill started to race by for the young woman, she'd had to extend her visit due to Albert having another episode but she wasn't exactly irritated at the fact.
Truth be told it had been nice to be back, she'd been out quite a few times with the boys and got to know the town again; most of all she'd enjoyed getting to know the dark haired drummer. Penny and Mick had been out a few times and had well... Thoroughly enjoyed themselves.
Penelope had been focusing on some coursework when the phone rang,
" Hello?"
" Lo?"
Penny: Steven?
Steven: Hello Lo.
Penny: I- Who... Ho-
Steven: It was Dannie.
Penny: I mean...
Steven: How have you been?

" Hi." He smiled,

" It's been a while hey?" Penny reminded as she stepped around.
