A Rocken World

Guitar Practice

Luz P.O.V

I arrive at school the next day and to my surprise Willow is waiting at the doors for me. "Hey, morning Willow" she looks over at me and grins "so, I was informed that we can't go to the studio today. Any clue on that?" I pretend to be thinking of something yet I very well know why. "Hm I don't know, maybe some work is being done? I don't know" Willow hums "yeah, possibly."

~~after school because idk what else to put~~

I'm so glad today was a short day because I don't think I could spend any longer in class knowing that I get to spend after school with Amity, and apparently just me and her. Alone. At the studio. Together. Now that I'm thinking it over I'm realizing it may have been a bad idea, but I shoot Amity a text to let her know I'm on the way.

~~yes another time skip. I don't know at this point~~

I pull up to the studio and enter to find Amity in casual clothing, and by this I mean a hoodie and sweats and not school clothes. "Hey Amity!" she looks up from getting the amp set up and waves me over "so, I was thinking you could see which one of these your more comfortable holding then work on the basics and if your hungry after we could go grab something to eat."

"Wow, you just have everything planned huh" "yes, why wouldn't I? I just plan ahead to I know what room I have to work with" she says this while not even bothering to look up from what she's doing "also you brought sketches right?" this time Amity looks up at me waiting for the response "well funny thing is, uh I don't know where they are."

Amity just looks at me raising a brow "yeah and for some reason I don't believe that, I can't put my finger on why but I just don't" she sets her guitar down and walks over to me "hand me your bag" "wait why?" "Just hand me it." I give her my backpack and she sets it on the table "so, your saying if I open this right now and search it I won't find any drawings at all?"

"Okay, fine I brought them" Amity seems satisfied and leaves my bag and pulls up a second chair and motions me to sit. I walk over and sit across from her "do you know how to hold a guitar?" "yeah of course I do" "okay then show me" I nod and go to pick up the spare guitar when Amity stops me "use mine."

"But the spare is right here" "I'm aware. But I'm telling you to use mine" I nod and she hands me her guitar and I set it on it's side on my lap with my right hand on the body and my left on the neck. "Seems you know the basics, so it should be easier to teach you. Now I want to see you standing with it."

I nod and stand up holding it in the same position but this time standing "perfect, now I know which one will be better for you to use" she takes her guitar back and sets it on the stand and grabs one of the extra guitars. She also grabs a strap and puts it on and puts a pick in the sleeve of it for me then hands me the guitar.

I put the strap around my neck and Amity adjusts it for me while I look off to the side hoping she doesn't see the blush appearing on my face. "How dose that feel?" this time I turn to look at her but I don't realize how close she is until I look forward. "I-I uh it um" I can my face flush red and Amity notices this and backs up with I think pink tinted across her face.

"I apologize for that" "your fine" I look down at the guitar laid across me and hold on to it once again in the same position. Amity looks back at me holding it and smiles softly "Alright I guess your ready you get started huh?" "Yes, one hundred percent ready to learn." Amity smirks at my enthusiasm and walks back over and positions my fingers on the neck of it. This is going to be a long day.

~~an hour later~~

We spent an hour working on the basic cords and by the end of that hour I'm able to easily play at lot of the basics. "I'm impressed Luz, you learned that incredibly fast" I stupidly grin at her proud of myself. "You hungry? Or just wanna go grab something?"

I think for a second and I get an idea "Wanna go get frozen yogurt?" Amity looks at me confused "frozen what?" "Have you never had frozen yogurt?" "No, is it good?" "Yeah! It's called frozen yogurt but it's basically ice cream. You've had ice cream right?" Amity nods "alrighty want to go get some?" "Sure, that sounds good."

I take the guitar off my neck and set it down on the stand and go and grab my bag "nah leave it we'll come back here after" I sigh knowing that I'm not getting out of letting her see my sketches. "Let me go grab my keys and we can go" "no, no Amity. Your teaching me to play, I'm driving."

Amity looks up at me and gives me a slight glare, "your not stopping me" I cross my arms and give her a look. "Fine, but I still need my keys to lock up, have you seen them?" "You mean these?" I hold up her keys by the loop and just stare at her and this time she actually glares at me.

"How did you, where-" "I've got my ways" "but they were in my back pocket! How did you do that" she looks at me confused and I just laugh. "Let's go, I want to see you have your first frozen yogurt" Amity just giggles "yeah alright lets get going."

She walks past me and bumps me while grabbing her keys from me, she turns and looks at me walking backwards and I stick my tongue out at her. "Come on, let's just get going you idiot." "I'm not an idiot?"

I hurry after her out the door and unlock the doors and open the passenger door for her. "Thanks Luz, your real nice" once she's in I shut the door for her and get in on the drivers side. "Alrighty you ready to get some frozen yogurt?" "Yeah, let's get going."
