Sunstone walked alongside Viper through the halls, making their way to the music room.
"What your favorite part of music?" Viper asked. She looked at him with lively sparkles in her eyes.
You. No say somthing not gushy. "Oh I just like uh.. hearing the music.. I can make." He replied. GUGHH, that was stupid! Stupid, stupid, stupid! GUHH!! His mind scolded.
"Oh, that's nice. I like it because it reminds me of one special dragon back home. It's my first year away from him, and.. it's honestly hard to not be with Pharaoh." She said.
Is Pharaoh like.. someone she likes instead of me? Should I ask? He thought. "Uh.. if you're okay with answering this, who is Pharaoh?
"Oh, Pharaoh is my older brother. He took care of me when my parents didn't. Which was... all the time.." She said somberly.
"Oh.. I'm- I'm so sorry.." he said. He hesitantly put one talon on her back, not sure whether or not she will be okay with it. But she didn't jerk or push his talon off, she just let him. She sidled closer to him, her warmth of her scales warming his. It made his heart beat faster, and his face get hot, and he got all jittery. Does she feel like this? Does she get all these crazy feelings when she's around him? Whether she does, or doesn't, Sunstone is fine with anyway as long as he's with her.
They walked into the music room, and surprisingly there was only two other dragons in there.
A seawing looked up at him and Viper. "Aw, you guys together?" She asked.
Sunstone visibly blushed, and he looked at Viper and she had a super red face to.
"Oh- i- we- no we're- we're not.. not together." She finally spit out.
Why did Sunstone feel offended? He felt as if she should have said "yes?" But he doesn't even know what the seawing meant? Whatever it was, it's probably not worth worrying over.
"Yeah. We're not that." He said, even though he doesn't know what it meant.
"You should. You guys are cute!" The seawing said.
Sunstone got red again, but looked down to hide it. "I- I don't think we.. we are like that. We're just freinds." He said.
He saw Viper have a little sad look, then wipe it off her face quickly and look back up.
"Ohh. I see, never mind then!" She said gleefully.
Viper chuckled nervously, and walked over to one of the set of drums. She pulled them out of the corner and pulled out a stand as well. She put her paper with her solo on it on the stand for music, and started playing.
It sounded very lively, and fun.
Sunstone sat, listening to Viper play away on her drums, not a care in the world.
Viper happily played, letting the memories of all the times she played happily with her brother flood in.
Sunstone could see Viper really getting into the song, as if she was inside the song itself. Following the path of notes making all the terrific beats.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Viper finished playing, and Sunstone sat in awe of the wonderful symphony of beats that just ended.
"Heh.. did-.. did you like it?" She asked nervously. She twiddled her thumbs as she patiently waited for Sunstone to reply.
"By the moons, that was great!" He exclaimed. "I've never heard anydragon play like that! That- it was- All of it was amazing!" He said.
