(GSE3) House Field: Seifer Leo's House

[Cipher Izanagi]

After being reassured yet again that she was indeed ok, the pair made their way home after they finished their tea, Seifer opening the door to the house and leading the red head inside. He set himself down on the couch after closing the door behind them, waiting for Rosalia to go get her violin and everything set up. He was actually pretty excited for her to play for him, even if it was just practice and not something more.

Rosalia sighed in relief when they got home, thankfully without any more stumbles along the way. As the brunette waited in the living room like always, the redhead went to her room to get her violin case. She also dropped off her schoolbag onto her bed, not needing to drag the whole thing around when she just needed some papers from it. Though she still didn't have a stand for the sheet music... Oh well. One was on its way, and would probably arrive within the next two days or so. Rosalia returned to the living room then with case and papers, laying them out on the table so she could read them a bit easier. "So.. lets see... Looks like there's.. a few places where the violinist doesn't actually play, so if I stop and start again, that's just how it goes," she mused, mostly to herself but also partially explaining it to her only audience member. So instead of this being the full composed piece with multiple instruments, her practicing would sound more like this instead.

The female stood up straight after getting her violin ready, cleaning it and ensuring it was tuned. The warmth returned again, but she first played scales to A: relax, and B: that's just how every practice usually started. Testing the notes she knew to play, and getting her fingers used to the motions again, before finally playing the piece. It wasn't as fast as the tempo should be, but she didn't want to make her violin screech when being watched.

As the female set up to play, cleaning everything and testing and adjusting, Seifer sat there quietly watching. He could tell just how much she cared for playing music, and how much care she had for her instruments. The actions she did just made him smile warmly, seeing how much she cared. As she started to practice he stayed quiet as well, listening intently. He didn't understand how to play, the mechanics, anything. But he could tell good music from bad, and even when she stopped, or went slow, he just enjoyed it. He wasn't sure if it was just because it was her, or that she was doing something she liked, but she seemed more vibrant to him than normal.

[RosaliaIzanami]

As the female practiced, Seifer watching her seemed to bother her less and less, as her fingers continued to play faster and faster until tempo was just right. From there, it was just a matter of repetitively playing the music over and over again. Actually, she wasn't sure whether or not she would be allowed to use the actual sheet music during the audition, so she also started to simply memorize the tune. In a way, it was like she had played the violin every single day of her life. She had still played it during the private lessons at home when Seifer was living with her, but here.. it felt nice. Something about playing the violin with company just felt nice. It brought back memories of other tunes she would play, and soon she wasn't playing from the sheet music. It was all memory from before, Rosalia shutting her eyes as she let her fingers do the work.

After some time, she finally lowered the violin, taking a seat and flexing her hands. "H-heh... S-sorry if I wasn't entertaining... It's been a while since I've practiced, but its still just practice..." she admitted, scratching the back of her head with an embarrassed look. But, she was happy. Somehow having the violin back.. it was like a piece of a puzzle fitting where it belonged; she just hadn't noticed it was missing.

[Cipher Izanagi]

Seifer just sat in awe as she played, watching every move, every change in figure. She was amazing to him, and it probably wasn't just because he couldn't play any music. Probably? In any case at the end of it he just clapped his hands smiling even more. "It was still really good. I enjoyed it, and hey, at this rate you'll get first chair in no time." it probably just sounded like an empty compliment from someone who didn't understand the finer aspects of the musical arts. But that wasn't the case, he genuinely believed she'd be able to, having complete confidence and faith in her, much akin to blind faith one has for a significant other or family. Part of that thought though caught his attention and he dialed it back just a little bit. He wondered if that'd probably make it awkward between them if she even knew what his thoughts were.

[RosaliaIzanami]

The warmth that was to be perpetually burning in her cheeks returned yet again at the clapping, but it was a nice feeling at the same time. Seifer enjoyed listening, and it made her happy just with that. "H-heh.. I hope so. Then you can see what it's like when I'm being supported by other instruments. It takes more than just the violin to make a good piece." she pointed out, but at the same time, its a wonderful feeling to be noticed among a crowd. "W-well.. I think I'm done practicing for today... Do you wanna give it a try?" Rosalia half teased, but half wondered if Seifer actually had an interest himself in learning about the violin. Or any instrument, for that matter. She offered the violin and bow, tilting her head, and grinned at her companion.

[Cipher Izanagi]

Seifer smiled in return, however... When offered the violin he quickly declined. "A-Ah... No thank you... I don't wanna accidentally mess up your violin... You need it for practice and stuff..." he replied. He hated turning down her offer, especially if she was willing to teach him but he really just didn't trust himself enough to try it, let alone even pick one up.

[RosaliaIzanami]

Rosalia figured as much, but she wondered if he said no just for the fact he didn't want to mess up the new violin. A thought came to mind, but she couldn't do much about it at the moment. Instead, she opted to clean her violin a bit, mostly just wipe it down before putting it safely back in its case. "It's okay. You'd probably give yourself a headache trying to get it not to squeak~" she teased, though after setting the case to the side, and gathering the sheet music so it wouldn't get lost again, the female leaned back in her chair to relax. "Well.. What do you wanna do now? I guess we could get something to eat, or make something since we're already home."

[Cipher Izanagi]

The male shut his eyes for a few moments thinking before shrugging. "I wouldn't mind going out to eat somewhere. I dunno where to though... I think it'd just be nice the two of us..." it took him a moment to notice how that sounded and quickly changed it, with his face turning red in the process. "I meant... Ya know... Since we got here my friends have been around almost constantly, so I didn't know if you felt like it was to much to handle sometimes." not much better but he didn't know what else to say about it really.

[RosaliaIzanami]

Rosalia didn't catch how the dinner for two sounded at first, at least not until she noticed how red Seifer got again. She felt the same tightness again in her chest from earlier, as if it never went away even after relaxing with her violin. "O-oh! Uhm... Yo-our friends.. they really aren't that bad... I mean, most of them are nice and all.. b-but I guess.. it has been a bit crowded lately..." She trailed off for a few moments, looking down at her hands. She played with her thumbs, rubbing the back of her hands nervously, partly wishing that she could just hide in her room, or hide behind her curtains of hair. Instead, something pushed her to her feet again, even if it was a sudden, almost jerky movement. "N-no, we... we can have a break from your friends, right?... L-let's go out to eat, j-just... Just the two of us..."

[Cipher Izanagi]

Seifer turned a darker red before nodding, standing up and shifting nervously. Why was he so nervous to begin with? In any case he walked toward the door leading the way. He wasn't sure where they would go to eat, but maybe if they looked around they'd find some place to eat at.

[RosaliaIzanami]

By the time they returned home, Rosalia had finished her cone and was simply enjoying their moment together. Holding hands, having dinner and desert, just walking along the streets of the shopping district... It was a date in her mind, even if it wasn't initially planned. But when they got home, she almost felt... awkward again. To having just started dating, and they were sharing a house. Granted, they were sharing it before as friends but... it felt that much more when they're "together". "I-i uh... guess it's late... and we should head to bed..." Normally, the guy would walk the girl home, hug or something goodbye at the doorstep, and leave. They couldn't do that here. Well, she still hugged the brunette tightly, savoring it as if it were their last. When she pulled out of the hug, Rosalia could only smile up at Seifer. "I-i guess.. goodnight?... And see you in the morning or something?.."

[Cipher Izanagi]

Seifer hugged the female back, tightly. Smiling back at her he nodded, gently rubbing her shoulder and arm. "Yeah... Tomorrow... And hey, we can sleep in tomorrow to. If you want to anyway." with that said, he lightly kissed her forehead goodnight, not sure why he did it, but when he pulled back his face was red, and he walked toward his room, waving good night to her. He was sad it was over for the night, but there would be many more nights they could spend together.

Rosalia AF+15

[RosaliaIzanami]

"M-mhm.. I-i dunno if I can sleep in or not though... W-we'll see..." Rosalia shut her eyes at the light kiss. Even to her forehead, her entire face lit up again, but so was his, so she didn't mind as much. "Goodnight.." the female repeated again, waving in return before going into her own room and shutting the door behind her. She got changed into her pjs, all the while wondering if she could even sleep at all tonight. But as she laid down and shut her eyes, sleep came over her quickly, though a small smile remained on her lips.


Seifer   AF+15

[Cipher Izanagi]

Seifer had lead the way home, holding the red head's hand with his smiling like an idiot the entire way home, only letting go long enough to open the door and lead her inside. "I wouldn't mind something with chicken and beef maybe. I think something like that would make a decent combination if we do it right." he admitted, setting her school bag down in her room and walking to the kitchen, rolling his sleeves up.
