((Note: that's the song, and nelly intentionally plays it wrong, as the tune above))

The world had stopped as he gazed at her, it was a miracle.
He couldn't close his eyes, afraid to blink...and she's be gone. Forever.
Lindsy squeezed nicholas's hand

"Nicholas, Nick, hey, come on, stop staring, they will know somethings up" she told him as she pulled him into a kiss. Nick was kissed and his eyes were still wide open. But he blinked. Lindsy pulled away from him.
"Nick, you back?" She asked.

Nick blinked and was snapped back into reality.
"Y-yes?" He answered as he turned back to look at the beautiful goddess he had laid his eyes upon.
She was still there.
"It's...her" he managed to say as nelly pulled her violin up, in playing position.
The composer began to count off, when the orchestra began playing.
She began playing.

Nelly played with such passion, with so much passion. It was beautiful, to watch. Her bow strokes absolutely in time. The orchestra was her background music. The music she played from one instrument, began to flow through the hall. People gazed at her with such entertainment, they were consumed by her music. It was like watching the creation of art that moment. She played loud, and quiet, had and loud. Digging into the violin strings, she was a solo. Iolinist. Playing the song incorrectly. The orchestra had to battle to keep up with her and she didn't care. She wanted to convey her feelings into the song. Her sorrow, her love, her rebellious nature.
Everything that she felt, into this one song. The orchestra battled hard to keep up and slow down when she did that. The people gazed at her consumed by her power to dominate such a huge orchestra,
The song began ending slowly, when she sped up, every note in tune, and perfect, the orchestra slowed down and battled to end with her. With one last bow stroke she ended the song. The orchestra people were tired. They had almost messed up completely because of this rebellious girl. She could feel the gaze of nobles, wanting to kill her for playing a beautiful piece so incorrectly. Yet others wanted to praise her.

The crowd began to clap loudly. The orchestra director gave her an icy glare, as he stood besides her and bowed infront of the crowd.
"Rebellious violinist, where did they find you?" The orchestra director asked quickly in a rushed tone, almost mean. Nelly didn't flinch, she was done with being constrained by the rules.

"I'm just a girl, that's all, I'm glad you taught your orchestra to keep up with you, and not lose them, your an exceptional man" nelly replied with a sweet smile. The orchestra director couldn't help but blush at her compliment. He scoffed and began to compose himself.

"Well...thank you, miss...??"

"Anderson." Nelly replied as she smiled, the orchestra director was about 19 and handsome. Quite young to even be an orchestra director.

"My names, Robert Webster, this is actually my first time directing in a social event. I'm new to this" he replied with a smile.

"Nelly Anderson, pleased to meet you, I'm glad you were the director, you're a great leader" she replied as Robert took her hand and shook it. He was captivated by her beauty.

"You must be someone important if you were allowed to come and play here" he told her

"Something like that" she replied with a smile, he was captivated by her. No doubt that. He was attracted by her. The crowd had begun to quite down. Robert took her hand and bowed down with her, the two synchronizing perfectly. The crowd clapped once more.

"Ladies and gentleman! Thank you for inviting us, and This lovely violinist, tonight! Please enjoy you night" Robert announced as nelly smiled proudly. She let go of Roberts hand and began to walk back towards the backstage, to put away her violin. Robert following her.
She found Jackson waiting for her,

"Hey princess! Never thought you'd put so much emotion to a piece" Jackson complimented her. Nelly smiled,

"Well, I'm just glad Mr. Webster's orchestra could catch up with me" she replied with a slight laugh. A wonderful beautiful laugh, it captivated Robert even more. She was like a beautiful siren, wooing him into a trap.

"Please call me Robert" he told her as she took her hand and kissed it lightly, Jackson rose an eyebrow. Noticing that, this was flirting. Jackson slightly chuckled.

"Nelly, let's go, we have more people to greet" Jackson told her as nelly gave Robert one last charming smile that struck his heart with more liking.

"Yes, Jackson, anyways,..it was nice to meet you" she told him as she began to leave. Robert grabbed her hand, and took out a card.

"I-if you ever wanna play together again...it would be an honor" he told her , as he handed her his business card. Nelly took it.

Nick
He couldn't believe his eyes, she was right there. Playing a beautiful song with so much emotion that anyone could feel it. Then next moment she was making a man blush. She was so beautiful she had made someone blush!
Was that really her nelly, she had changed in 6months. Her body had better curves, her lips were plumper, her eyes glowed more, her hair longer, she didn't wear glasses. She did t seem afraid or timid, she seemed confident and rebellious, willing to fight for what she wanted. She seemed so...unattainable...Nick loved that.

"Nick. Nick" Lindsy called to him and he was brought back to reality.

"Yeah?"

"She's here! I know you're happy, but where my boy?" She asked him with puppy dog eyes, absolutely beautiful blue eyes. Sad eyes.

"Hey...he's around somewhere." Nick told her as the two looked around. They were told not to get away from eachother and if they were. They would be punished harshly and with the whip if needed.

"Nick...I'm scared we can't be saved" she told him

"Hey. Calm down, we will be saved, and...if we actually married tomorrow in the afternoon...we will be a good couple...just worry for them" nick told her as he looked towards the doorway. Nelly was in between Ivan and Jackson. She was escorted by two handsome men. She could feel the girls glares, but she didn't back down. She was stronger than that, and Nicholas had taught her that.
