    Tyler woke up with enthusiasm in the morning. ...Except it wasn't the morning. It was more the afternoon. ...He thought he'd slept a bit too well. But no matter. He still had time to get ready for the concert and then go to meet Abby as promised. He stifled a yawn as he got out of bed and grabbed a towel, heading to the shower. The hot water felt good and served to wake him up and refresh him. Once dried and dressed in some comfortable stuff, he headed down to make a late lunch. His mind wandered as he thought about the upcoming concert. He wondered how Quin was doing right now.
    She was a strong girl, Tyler knew that, but he also just had a feeling that maybe... she couldn't always be as strong as she showed she was when in the face of others. He was sure that she was probably alright, but he still worried. How could he not? Quin was his best friend.
    He hesitated for a moment before pulling out his phone. He didn't want Quin to feel like he was making too much of a fuss, but hey, since when was it ever a bad thing to show support for a friend?



    Tyler checked over the text a few times, and once satisfied, he hit the send button. He finished eating, washed up his plate and the other utensils before he headed back upstairs. He stretched and twisted his neck slightly, feeling a satisfying click before he headed over to his wardrobe and looked through what he should wear tonight. Tyler normally wasn't the type to care about clothing choice, but tonight was a special event and people were expected to at least meet a certain social standard. It had been like that ever since he could remember going to Quin's concerts. He found a button up shirt he liked; which was a midnight blue color and with it, he chose a pair of nice grey chinos to match as well as settling on a pair of black shoes that looked formal enough, but were still comfortable to wear. After brushing his teeth and at least trying to comb his hair (which always failed since it seemed to be stuck in it's ragged casual messy state). He gave himself one more look over before heading back downstairs. He said goodbye to his mother who told him to give Quin her love and that she'd try and attend later.
    Before heading outside, he grabbed his headphones from the table and put them around his neck. His headphones seemed to follow him everywhere and were almost a part of his identity in a sense.
    Closing the door behind him, he set off at a quick walk. The park he had designated a good meeting spot to Abby wasn't too far, so he made it within no time at all. ...Then he realized... he hadn't specified which entrance to meet her at.
    ...Cráp.
    And so, he walked through the park to all the other entrances and at the last possible one he could check, that's when he found her. "Hey there, Abby. Sorry to keep you waiting." He held his hand up in greeting and apology. "I was at the other entrance and realized that you'd probably then come here." he laughed. "...Anyway. Shall we be off? The concert isn't too far from here."


    They soon arrived at their destination, and took their seats near the front so they'd have a good view of the upcoming performance.

    Being driven to the church was lovely. Not a single annoying soul in sight, just a nice quiet drive with mother and the Lord. John sighed in happiness, smiling as he let his mother out of he car and even held the churches door open with her. As if on their arrival, the choir started to sing, as they well should, his mother was the church's top donor, and her word, was rivaled only by God.

    She had ordered them to sing and start the Sunday service on her arrival, which was also never a problem because she always came on the service's scheduled time. Once they settle in their traditional front pew seats, John settled in for a hell of a preaching.

    xxxxxxxxxx Fifteen minutes until show time. Even though Kallisti had been through this routine a million times before, she still got that flutter of nervous excitement in her stomach, the one that not only anticipated the crowd, but their reactions to their music, and sometimes, their approval. Through everything else, Kallisti didn't care what others thought about her, but her music was something different. While she still played because she loved it, she would barely show that she wanted approval of her skills. Acknowledgement.

    She had done a quick run through of the parts in the music she had the most trouble with and found that they were no longer any trouble at all. The piece was rather . . . long, but she never saw any point in gathering several people to only be here for a few minutes. No, this song was quite . . . long.

    On her chair, her phone vibrated and she looked at it, wondering who the message could be from. She smiled when she saw it was from Tyler, wishing her good luck.

    " Good luck . . . " she thought to herself, staring at her violin, phone still in hand. Considering who might be in the crowd tonight, she just might need it . . .

    The engine hummed loudly as Brian started the car. He backed out of the driveway, and drove down Waverly Place to the main street. He always called his street "the tie between two worlds", because his street connected the two main roads that flow through Coy City. Looking carefully ahead of him, the boy turned onto Broad Street.

    He was heading to Quin's concert at Sealand Park, which was at least a forty-five minute drive. The boy saw the buzz about it on Tumblr, and he heard Aileen was going, so he figured it would be a great social event. Plus, Brian always admired Quin for her gift with the violin and it would be cool to see her in action. He sighed happily as he continued to drive, turning up his iPhone which was plugged into the car's speakers.

    At long last, Brian arrived at the concert. There were chairs set up in neat rows, with the stage being dead center. He loved being the center of things, where all the attention was drawn. It made him feel... "complete" when he knew someone was thinking of him. Curiously, he looked around to see if Aileen had arrived yet. He pulled out his phone and checked the time. "Only fifteen minutes left until it starts, I hope Aileen gets here soon," he murmured under his breath. Slipping the phone back into his pocket, Brian decided to walk around to meet new people or see old friends.

    Every day was a new social opportunity, and Brian would just die without his regular dosage of attention...

    Having been ill for a few days Chase wanted to be out of the house. Go somewhere, see some people, have a good time, catch up on things he had missed. A few days before he had received an odd email, something about having 100 days to live. Though Chase totally believed the email, he was okay with it, just wanted to make sure the other recipients were alright. So it stands to reason he was excited when he heard about the concert down at Sealand Park. He made sure he was freshened up and dressed fairly casually before heading out for the walk down to the park.​
    A good ten minute walk was all it took to arrive at the park. He took a seat and looked around to see who was around him, a few faces he recognized from school were around. Chase considered saying something to someone but shyed away from the idea, if somebody spoke to him he'd welcome the conversation but couldn't bring himself to socialize first.​

    Sealand Park was only a 5-minute walk from Ash's house, so it didn't take long for her and Aiko to get there.
    When they did, the two found Irene and her dad easily and took Aiko with them (much to Ash's delight). She then walked around the park to see if she could find someone famiiar. The first person she could find was Chase.
    She walked up to him and said, "Hey Chase, few days no see. What's up?"

    The bus ride was awkward. It wasn't until she stepped foot into the bus that Aileen realized that she was attracting a large amount of attention. Oh no...no....Thanks, mother. Thanks, father. Just...thanks. Aileen frowned and moved her way to the back of the bus. She looked down at her feet as she walked to the empty seat. When she sat down, she pulled out her phone from her black leather clutch, plugged in her headphones and listened to music. It was going to be a long bus ride.
    There was a bus stop right in front of Sealand Park, which Aileen found extremely convenient. She had never been to this park before, so she made sure to scan her surroundings. The scenery was beautiful; the fall colours were gorgeous. Though it was December, the weather was not extremely gruesome. There was a warm feeling in the air. After a bit of walking, Aileen saw rows of chairs lined up. She walked along the aisle to look for a seat. There were a couple of familiar faces already sitting. She looked around and spotted her best friend Brian. She was surprised because she didn't know that he was attending.
    Aileen walked towards Brian, smiled and waved. "Hey! I didn't know you were coming!"

    "Hey Chase, few days no see. What's up?" Chase looked up to see a familiar face, Ash. He couldn't help but grin up at her.

    "Hey Ash!" He patted the seat next to him "Wanna sit? I know, I've actually missed school! I haven't been well, but I'm better now. It's great being able to have a normal conversation again" He smiled "How have you been? Has anything happened while I was away?"

    With 15 minutes to spare, Xavier had managed to arrive at the park and find a seat. He didn't feel like sitting in a spot that already had a bunch of people there, so he moved to an area that a little people sitting around it, but still allowed him to fully enjoy the concert. Seeing that he had some time to spare, he chose to relax somewhat for the next 15 minutes until the concert started.

    Yuna sat in the park and hastily ate her food. As soon as she was done, she dusted herself off, threw away her trash, and went over to the concert. She forgot to ask Aileen for her number, so she couldn't check if she was here or not. She took a seat in the middle row, hoping Aileen would see her. Quietly, she waited for her would-be friend, and hoped she hadn't been too obnoxious the day before. All she had brought up was school and video games. Had she been isolated for THAT long that she didn't know what kids her age liked? Yuna sighed. "I hope she doesn't think I'm TOO weird..." As if on cue, she saw Aileen and Brian. Yuna was conflicted. Should i interrupt, or not? she wondered. Thinking she could miss her opportunity, she pretended she hadn't seen them and bumped into Aileen softly. "Oh, hi Aileen," she said with the most sheepish smile manageable, "Hi Brian," she added, "How are you guys?"

    "Yeah, I'll sit, thanks." Ash sat in the seat next to Chase, "And I've been fine, nothing really happened at school when you were gone."
    Then she thought for a moment before she said something else, should she tell him about the Contest or not? then she decided.
    "So Chase, remember the Youth Music Contest held every year? Well I signed my band up for it! I can't wait for it to happen! The first year the Black Angels will be performing for a real contest!"

    xxxxxxxxxx For just a moment, Kallisti felt her heart throb against her rib cage in a nervous spasm, but it was only once. She grabbed her violin and looked to Elizabeth to give her the okay. " You're going to do great, " she said, and then went out on to the stage to prep her performance. She took a deep breath and began to finger through the music in her mind, just as she always did, to calm herself down.

    " Ladies and gentleman, " she heard Elizabeth begin in her serene voice, " Tonight, I would like to present to you Kallisti Quintus Lein, a first violinist of the All-State Orchestra. She will be playing Violin Sonata No. 1 in G minor, BMV 1001, composed by Johann Sebastian Bach in 1720, first published in 1802. The music style is Baroque, and the four movements are Adagio, Fuga, Sicilliana, and Presto. " she then went on to explain, " I do hope you enjoy the performance, and please remember to turn off all sound on your cellphones and other electronic devices. With out further ado, ladies and gentlemen, I present to you Kallisti Quintus Lein,"

    And that's when, from behind the curtains, stepped a much calmer looking Kallisti, her violin and bow in hand. The light shone on her, and when she turned to the crowd, they began to clap. She looked up and quickly scanned the people; they were all here. Most all of the people in the e-mail, they were here? How did they all hear about the concert? Tumblr? Someone had to be her focal point . . . She saw Madeline, Anthony, Elizabeth, Xavier, Chase, Ashina, Aileen, Brian . . . Oh, Tyler and Abigail! What a relief he was there . . .

    . . . They were all here in one place, how odd. This made her feel much more calm, although that felt like the wrong state to be in. She inhaled and set her chin on the chin rest of her violin, beginning to feel comfortable on stage as she took up this routine. She loved performing for the same reason it made her queasy. The people, their thoughts, their listening, their focus.

    It was exhilarating.

    And so Altair closed his eyes and listened as Kallisti played her song. Such a wonderful piece was played with a great amount of skill and emotion. At first believed that this concert would be played by somebody quite...older, but when he saw the teen walk out on stage he was quite doubtful of her skills. In the end realized he was extremely wrong to think so. Altair just listened to the music with a relaxed smile, his mind fully at ease.

    The park was full of people now, and the more familiar faces Madeline picked out of the crowd, the happier she was that she had chosen to sit in the back. Luckily, no one else bothered her before some woman stepped out onto the stage to announce Quin. Madeline sat up straight in her seat. The sooner Quintus was finished, the sooner she could go... Where would she go? Not back to Reuben's. Not home.

    Instead of dwelling on that (or her hunger), she took a deep, calming breath and closed her eyes. The piece was exquisite; absolutely beautiful--if not a bit long. M truly did adore music and Quin's playing was superb. Despite everything, she didn't regret showing up.

    Someone exited on to the stage, announcing for Quin's performance. If she remembered correctly, it was a woman who shared a name with her, which turned into an interesting thought. But more importantly, why she had to put the box of crackers down and away now and check to make sure her phone was on silent. Should be off, but no that wasn't happening at the moment.

    In any case, once the music began she felt a certain serenity from it. And it wasn't the best line of sight but she swore she saw her little brother sit up and, from what she could tell as he didn't shout out or anything, he had become engrossed in the playing. Why, she really was good, wasn't she?

    Right when Ash was going to respond to what Chase said, a woman walked on the stage and started with, " Ladies and gentleman, "
    While she continued on with her announcment, Ash pulled out her phone and shut it off, and put her attantion to the stage.
    Quin then walked on, looking very calmly, and started playing. Even though Ash wasn't very fond of Quinn, her music was really beautiful and she couldn't look away. The lovely sound dragged her interest in.
    "This is so... beautiful." Ash thought.

    Temperance couldn't see Quin on the stage, she was just a small blur in the distance, but she could hear her. It wasn't bad, she had to admit. Not her style, but still not bad. She wrote up a small post about it on Tumblr and smiled to herself. She may have her differences with Quin, but as the head cheer leader it was her job to support those that were talented. Quin deserved to be cheered on, even from afar. Temperance could give her at least that much.
    She rubbed her arms and legs vigorously as the cold seeped into her bones. The cold was terrible, and they were predicting snow for tomorrow. It was surprising that they hadn't received any yet this year. It was a wonder if they even lasted til Thanksgiving without the wet, white, powder coating the ground. She sighed heavily and looked back over towards the ampitheater. The music was definitely attention grabbing, even for Temperance.
    She hadn't wanted anyone to know of her presence there, but the blog would be a dead give away. Well, at least no one would see her physically in person. She looked like a trainwreck. Knowing she was there in spirit had to be better than seeing her there in person. Right? It would be horrendously humiliating for anyone to see just how disheveled she was. Temperance never let anyone get under her skin like this, and yet it happened. And then it ended. The blissful ease, the relationship, and the music. The music ended... When did it end? How had she not noticed that Quin had stopped playing? Was there another peice? Had it been playing for long? How long? She lost track.
    Temperance looked at the clock on her phone in surprise. Her eyebrows raised at the time in the upper right corner. How had so much time gone by? She had been sitting there spacing out for awhile. Thinking about Josh, thinking about the email, and school. Could she really face him the following day? Things ended so badly. He wouldn't even give her a chance to try and explain the situation. Not that he would believe her anyway. He was a stubborn, cheating, control freak with a bad temper and usually jumped to conclusions. A lot of the times the conclusions were right, but not this time. He wouldn't listen and it wasn't fair. None of this is fair.

    xxxxxxxxxx The music came to an end, and cheers erupted from the crowed, echoing loudly throughout the amphitheater. Kallisti took a breath, inhaling all of the applause, letting it get to her for just a split second, and then breathing out, all her positive emotions being put in check. Even the people she hadn't expected to be there, like Elizabeth and Temperance, they were clapping, too. When Kallisti looked to Madeline, she was almost elated to see that she enjoyed it. This was a good night.

    She took a bow, and then disappeared behind the fluidly moving curtains, only to be bombarded by her mentor in a tight hug, " That was magnificent, Quin! " Elizabeth said in to her hair, " You did a great job! " Kallisti was always stunned when someone showed her affection just like this. She wasn't the best at returning it, but she did smile, and thanked Elizabeth for all her help. They went on to talk about the next concert that was in three months, and then the UMA contest that was being held here, at this very same place in four months. Hopefully . . . Nothing will have changed by then.

    By the time she had cased up and put on her coat, people were either gone, or at the reception part, which wouldn't last more than an hour or two. She found that the others of the e-mail were awkwardly spread around, looking like they didn't want to talk to each other in the least, and so she almost did the same, until she decided to talk to only one of them. If the rest of them wanted to talk, then they'd have to come to her.

    She made her way over to Madeline, smiling, " I am very glad that you could make it, Madeline, " she said with a smile, feeling a pair of eyes on her back making her uncomfortable. When she turned slightly to see who it might be, an elderly woman had just turned around, and Kallisti frowned, soon turning back to Madeline, " I hope you enjoyed yourself? What did you think? "

    Once Quin had started her solo, Xavier just sat their and listened. While it was true that he listen to a variety of music genres, ever since he'd decided to learn how to play the trumpet 3 years ago, he started to grow fond of classical music. As the song continued to play, he just sat their enjoying every moment of it. But the song itself soon ended and Xavier was among the rest of the audience clapping.
