Avery's outfit
Avery walked into the music room with his assignment in hand. It was for one of his music electives, which was open to all music students. Avery enjoyed his music classes, always learning something new and figuring out new sounds to make. It also helped that he was a pretty good student, if he did say so himself. Avery was also fortunate enough that he and CeCe always jumped at the chance to be partners. They were both awesome students, had great ideas and got along really well. For Avery it was a win/win/win. The only downside? Well, he felt that he had a couple of close calls with CeCe before. They had gotten pretty close during their last assignments; if he said he didn't like her he'd be lying. The problem was, Avery hated to mix work with pleasure. The last thing he wanted to do was screw up the relationship he did have with CeCe over something that may not even happen. All he had to do was buckle down and focus.
But the assignment was to write and perform a love song. That was going to be a challenge. Avery was going to have to think about any girl he went on even one date with except CeCe. Not that there was any pressure or anything. Shaking it off, Avery set his laptop on one of the stools and the assignment on top of it. He loosened the beanie on his head before moving one of the smaller keyboards over to an empty chair. He decided to warm up and play a few scales while he waited for CeCe. She should be here shortly. That was fine with Avery; neither of them had any classes after so they had plenty of time to work on the assignment. Once he warmed up with the scales he decided to practice another song. Well, it was only going to be one song. Pretty soon Avery got so into the music that he'd been doing a medley of songs. Elton John, Alicia Keys, even a few Disney songs he worked in. A few of them he played plenty of times so he was very good at them but a couple of others he was working on mastering. Girl on Fire, for instance, was an interesting song that Avery definitely wanted to get right for some reason. He didn't start singing that or any of the songs for that matter; Avery wasn't as much of a singer as a player or composer. But when he put on any music, whether he was listening to it or playing it, he became so engrossed in the sound that he completely disregarded his surroundings. So it was only fitting that when CeCe did arrive, Avery didn't even notice until she made any movements or opened her mouth.
