Celeste's p.o.v.

"Of course you will be meeting her soon, I'll have her join the choir practice today! I think she'll be an excellent fit!"

"Hooray! You hear that Celeste?" He said enthusiastically as he stepped to the side. Revealing me.

I stood there with my basket at hand, the blood rushing to my face. "Uhm, hahaha yes I heard Barnaby! I'm excited!" I said nervously.
Oh pickles.
I looked at Wally, his eyes stared at mine. He glanced at Barnaby, and if he had eyebrows, boy would they be furrowed. He looked back at me. I hope this outfit wasn't too much.

I looked at him. He was staring. Oh crap oh crap oh crap. I blushed.

"You look.... Or I mean... uh... ummmm..." Wally stuttered.

"Doesn't she look fantastically cute?!, it's perfect for this summer weather!" Barnaby said enthusiastically, breaking the awkward silence.

I glanced at Barnaby, thankful for his personality. I smiled, "Thank you Barnaby!" The easy smile coming to my face.

"Father help me." Prayed Wally.

I paused, looking at him blushing. "Is it alright Wally?, it meets the required length. Is it too much?"

"What? No-No-No! You look wonderful!" He panicked.

"Thata boy Wally!" Encouraged Barnaby.

I laughed. I could see why they were best friends, I'm thankful he caught me on my way out the house. The boys ended up laughing with me.

"By the by, I brought breakfast" I smiled, bringing the boys back to the conversation. I lifted the basket a little and wiggled it. "I made apple bread and apple crisps" I smiled. I glanced at Wally as his smile grew more. Barnaby was basically dancing.

"Yay!! Breakfast!" He giggled.

"Thank you, first dinner? Now breakfast? Careful Celeste, or I'll have you move in with me" Wally winked with a giggle.

"You're the one who has to be careful," I teased, "or I'll take you up on that offer." I winked back.

The look on his face was priceless. The blood rushes to his face, and he was redder than a tomato. "Come now, I'm getting hungry" I smiled. Barnaby pranced inside and sat himself at the table. I followed suit after him, with Wally following behind me. I sat at the table, placing the dishes down in a presentable presentation.

"Oh my!" Wally said clasping his hands, "it looks wonderful!, this must have been what I was smelling this morning!"

"Indeed! That's what led me to her house!" Barnaby said. Remembering the encounter this morning.

I giggled, "Indeed Barnaby, it was a pleasure to meet you and I wouldn't have it any other way," I smiled.

Barnaby's smile grew, and there was a slight blush too it. I laughed and so did Barnaby.

Wally glanced at Barnaby, his smile faltering. Are you jealous? At this his head snapped away from him and he looked at me. There's no way right? I glanced at Wally, our eyes locking, his stare holding"

"What happened this morning?"

"Uh, well-"

"It was the funniest thing! I woke up to the smell and I basically ran over, I thought it would be Poppy with a baked good like that, but it was our new neighbor! I was about to knock on the door, but I fell right through when she opened it. I didn't even knock. She of course felt bad, but you know me, nothing can hurt big ol' Barnaby! So then I asked if I could have a taste, but she said that she was going to surprise you, and of course I didn't want her getting lost so I led her over and hid her behind me! You should have seen your face Wally, you were totally surprised! And now we can go to choir practice with a happy stomach!" He preached.

"Hahahahah yup! That sounds about right Barnaby" I laughed at his his enthusiasm, Wally laughed too, but it didn't seem to match the enthusiasm as mine.

"Well, we should get eating if we are going to make it to practice on time." I smiled.

They both nodded and ate the food. Wally blinked and his portions were gone.

Home was making sounds and Wally nodded. "Yes home, I agree. We should do that soon."

I glanced over at him. "Damn, I wish I could find out what happened within these walls. Why was he in pain? The walls can certainly talk"

Wally froze. His face was slightly darkened, but only for a split second before he went back to his animated and smiling self.  He turned to look at me, "Well Celeste, breakfast was wonderful, right Barnaby?"

"Right! Poppy might have some competition with you!" He giggled. "My look at the time Celeste! We've gotta go!" He said, "would you like to ride on my shoulder?"

"Uhm, su-AH!" I was startled when he scooped me up and placed me on his shoulder. I also heard another sound as Wally was also picked up.

"Barnaby, must we really do this?"

"Of course Wally! It's the only way!" He said with a smile.

"Only way to find Sally, she's the choir director basically" Wally said matter-of-factly.

"Hold on ya'll!" Barnaby yelled as he zoomed on by.
