*Nayr frowned and his eyes glazed.* “It’s not exactly a skill I’m proud of.” *The small auditorium was used for band practice and was just one of several in the building.* “This is the band room I believe, but the director has a grand piano in here as well.” *Nayr sat on the piano stool and folded back the cover. He thought of the girl who had caught his eye gazing at the stars, and then walk away to a guy he didn’t know, and of what crystal said. He started to play Chopin’s Nocturne 3 and his thoughts became silent. As his fingers trickled across the keys, his mind was besieged by the dark and his presence was erased. He was alone with the music once again. When he had finished he opened his eyes slowly and released a deep sigh. He glanced toward Crystal. “I really like the piano.”

*Nayr grinned.* “Good.” *He opened the door to the music building.* “I’ve noticed they don’t lock the school buildings at night since the janitorial staff work so late, and then again so early,” he explained. “Only the individual rooms are locked you see?” *When they approached the door to the music room he took out a credit card and forced the lock* “Presto.”

*He smiled* “Alright, I think you’re worrying too much.” *as they walked he wondered what to say. He wanted to address her comment. He simply wasn’t ready to give up on trying to talk to Jillian, although he knew that was admittedly for the best.* “Do you like the piano?”

*Nayr was about to light his third cigarette when he realized he was getting low. Frowning at the near empty pack and considering it might be rude to light up in front of Crystal he put the pack away. In Italy he could walk to the store and buy more whenever he wanted. Now that he was in the U.S. he relied on his older brother, or simply strangers to buy for him. He turned to Crystal not knowing what to say, but still upset at the turnout of his confession* “I’m going to sneak into the music room. Do you want to come?”

*he looked at Jillian and blushed. “Aha, I see. That’s too bad. In all honesty I’ve developed a bit of a crush on you in the last couple hours.” * He glanced at Crystal slightly embarrassed.* “But I suppose your dorm mate beat me to it already.” *He smiled* “You have history though right? Maybe I’ll see you in class.”

*He put them away slightly embarrassed and tossed the cigarette on the ground expunging it with his shoe.*
“Sorry, didn’t mean to erhm….” *He trailed off in speech and waved the smoke away in front of him. “Anyway, I didn’t realize that these dorms were coed. Are you two dating then?”

*He looked at the smoldering cigarette solemnly after they passed and fumbled for his lighter in his pocket. As he lit the fresh cigarette he mumbled silently to himself for the second time that night.* “Merda,” he spoke softly under his breath.
