Quick Note: this is really short I know but there's a whole new AU I'm starting in a different book so check that out! Especially if you're interested in marching band AUs.

"He's back again," Hazel shouts as soon as the kitchen doors shut behind her, and I look up from my desk in the corner.
"Let me guess, one more week?" I chuckle, then stand from my chair and hand her the reservation book.
"He promises this time," Hazel adds, scribbling out the date for the sixth time. The entire column was black ink smudges by now, and each time he 'promised', it only meant lengthening the dark bar.
"Did he mention anything about her this time?" I ask as I return the book to it's file.
"Only that she's still 'away'. Whatever that means."
"I sort of feel sorry for the poor guy. He must be in love, I mean, six times?"
"Or he can't take a hint," Hazel mutters, and I snort. "What did he say last time, again?"
"'Jemma's really particular about times, so I have to make sure I've got a clear schedule for her.'"
"If she's so particular about times, why has she never shown up?"
"I don't know, but you've gotta admire his persistence."
"Persistently on my nerves," Hazel protests, whipping her bushy brown hair out of her face. I know that's her pre-outburst habit, so I let it drop.
"Get back to work, H."
