Garrett: [What did Connor bribe you with?]
Blake: [Seriously? You caved for just one meal?]
Arthur: [You’re way too innocent, little brother.]
Elliot: [Pretend I didn’t say anything.]
Once Connor was out the door, Lydia remembered something and pulled out two handwritten sheets of music from her pocket, handing them to Elliot.
“Elliot, these are for you.”
She’d written them during her break at work earlier.
The surprise hit Elliot so fast he didn’t know what to do. He stared at her, completely stunned. “For me?”
Lydia nodded. “Yeah.”
Elliot could barely contain himself. He glanced at the sheets, and his jaw actually dropped.
This was it. This was exactly the sound he’d been chasing after.
This was his style, right down to the last note.
“Lydia, you’re incredible. Seriously, these are a masterpiece.”
“I’m glad you like them, Elliot.”
“Like them? I’m obsessed. I love them!”
Lucinda edged closer, curiosity written all over her face. “Elliot, did Lydia just give you some music?”
Elliot nodded, then suddenly remembered something. “Oh, right, Lucinda. Isn’t your piano teacher Richie?”
Lucinda caught on right away and smiled. “Yes, Elliot. And my sister is actually his teacher.”
Elliot whistled in awe and patted Lucinda’s shoulder. “Lucinda, if Lydia ever gives you pointers, your piano skills are going to skyrocket.”
Lucinda smiled sweetly, looking every bit the perfect little sister. “That’s exactly what I was hoping for, Elliot. I wanted to ask Lydia a few questions about piano... I wonder if you have time?”
