Chapter 7:

Juliette POV:

A week has passed and I haven’t seen much of Danté as the band has been playing gigs and concerts non-stop as publicity for their upcoming tour. We only had a quick breakfast, and when I say quick I mean slurp down coffee and grab a piece of toast quick, before they had to leave for a photoshoot for posters and advertisement. I look at the clock and realize that if I don’t get moving, I’ll be late for my class with the children from the shelter. I gather my things and head out when I hear a racket coming from the opposite apartment and smile as I know it is Danté practicing.

I arrive just in time to catch the bus that drops the children off, wave to the bus driver and walk in with the kids. “so… anyone in the mood to sing?”. Silence. Ok, I’ll have to try something a bit different. “ok, everyone, huddle up” they all surround the piano where I take a seat. “If you know this one, just feel free to sing along” I start playing Adeles ‘Someone like you’ and hastily, one by one they join in and I am gobsmacked at the quality of these kids voices. I can’t help but think of the situation and shed a tear at the end of the song. “that was beautiful” I manage to say as I wipe the last stray tear from my cheek. I feel a force against my hip and see that a small little girl hugging me “please don’t cry miss” I smile and gesture for everyone to join in the group hug. I am really starting to feel a big piece of my heart getting attached to these children. Just as we finish, the bus arrives “ok, guys, next week, we’ll start singing with guitars and drums and things… oh! I’m super excited” I wave as the now more than ever excited children drive off still singing the Adele song in the bus.

When I arrive back at the class, I see Shane ready and waiting patiently for the lesson to begin, but I need the bathroom, badly, so I just take the amp from the rack, plaug it in and rush for the door, but of course, not before turning back and saying “start with those scales”. On my way back to the classroom I notice a small figure roaming at my door “Sarah?” its that cute little small girl who sits in the back of the class on mute.

“Come here sweety” I put my hand out and slowly but surely she takes it and we walk back to the class “Did you miss the bus?” she just nods. I search in my pocket and sure enough find a chocolate bar. I hand it to Sarah and she smiles at me and simply says thank you.

When the two of us arrive back at the class, Shaun turns around and smiles. “Shaun, this is Sarah. Sarah, this is Shaun.” Sarah smiles sheepily, while Shaun smiles with a cute confident grin. Watch out ladies! Ohhh, I forgot thee most important thing for this lesson in my car “Shane, Sarah, I’ll just be a second, don’t go anywhere or break anything ok?” I rush out to the car, grab the book I need and rush back in only to hear chatting from my classroom. I just stand in the doorway and watch how Shane and Sarah chat along like two old friends that have known each other for years. I smile as I watch how easy Shane makes Sarah feels and I’m glad he can make her feel so calm and easy. These two are going to be very good friends. I walk in slowly and put my hands on my hips “mister Shane, are those scales I hear?” he looks to the ground as I show Sarah where the games are as to keep herself occupied and I walk back to where Shane is now playing scales and I take a seat beside him “ok, they sound good, so now we can do some fun things like a piece” I give him ‘Straight, No Chaser’ as the other songs tend to be too easy to sight read. “so, just go learn the head in the low register and in the upper and I shall see you next week”. He gives me a quick hug and then goes to hug Sarah. I pack up my desk , gather my things and get ready to go when a deep voice booms from the door “Shane, bud, where are you?” but… I know that voice, the voice I have so dearly been missing for the past week. I am afraid to turn around but the voice keeps getting closer until finally the door opens “Uncle!” I hear Shane scream. So this is the infamous uncle Shane has been going on about. Hopefully they’ll just miss me and not see me--- “uncle, come meet my teacher, miss.Hart” I turn around and am met with an amusing grin from Danté “miss” he takes my hand and places a kiss on it. I look at Shane “Shane, would you mind helping Sarah gather all the puzzle pieces please?” he smile widely and turns on his heel to help sarah out. “so, miss.Hart” “yes?” he puts his hands around my waist and pulls me close to his body while looking into my eyes “I haven’t seen you in a week” he pouts and it is just the darn cutest thing I’ve ever seen. I look at him shocked when I remember Shane and Sarah are still here “Danté, there are kids here ok?” he just smiles his million dollar smile and looks over his shoulder at Shane and Sarah “hey, guys, whose hungry?” they both whoop, even Sarah, at the prospect of getting food and just being together. Danté then turns to me and wiggles his eyebrows “well then… I guess its about time we make up for that week, don’t you think?”
