A/N: I included one of my favorite pianist's songs because it is so amazing. So, I realized I never mentioned what time of year it is, so just go with it is late September.
Disclaimer: Homestuck is Hussie's, the song is Brian Crain's.
Rose pulled into the driveway, and Jade pulled up beside her. Everyone got out and Rose went to unlock the door. Dave went back over to his cello, John went over to the piano in the corner of the room, Rose and Jade went to kitchen to start cooking, and Kanaya went to her room to rest a bit. "Alright, I think I have a duet book in here somewhere." John said flipping through one of the many books he pulled out of his suitcase.
"You sure have a lot of books." Dave said giving a small smile.
"Yea, not only do I play piano, but sometimes I teach it." John said pulling out a book. "Alright, you have to sit next to me so you can see." John said scooting over on the bench. Dave got up, grabbed a chair from the kitchen and sat next to John. "Ever heard of Brian Crain?" John said. Dave shook his head "Well, I will print some more of his cello and piano duets off when I get over Jade's." John played a few notes, at random. Dave did a warm up "Can we start, or are we going to just sit and play at random?"
The song they were going to play Butterfly Waltz by Brian Crain. John started, keeping a steady tempo, Dave joined in having memorized his first few notes. Rose looked in at them from the kitchen door, smiling. John stopped, and let Dave go at the end for his solo; he didn't look once at the music. He just played whatever felt natural to him, surprisingly he played the written solo almost note for note. He ended the song on the correct note, smiling at his success. Kanaya walked into the kitchen from where she was standing to listen to the music.
"Hey is the food ready?" Dave said looking at Rose. She rolled her eyes "You go from beautiful music, to wanting food. Classy Dave."
"Thanks, I try." he gave her a sly smile. He leaned the cello against the wall, and went to help with anything else. John went and helped Kanaya set up the table, Jade brought out some cups, and a pitcher of sweet tea. Rose placed a large plate with cuts of turkey on it in the middle of the table; Dave placed a bowl of mashed potatoes at one end and a plate of mixed vegetables at the other. "Can we eat now?" Dave said, taking a seat next to John. Kanaya and Rose sat opposite them, and Jade sat at the head of the table. Everyone got their plates ready, and were about to eat when the doorbell rang.
"It is eight at night who would stop by at this insensible hour?" Kanaya said, and got up to go check. Dave heard the sound of giggling Oh god please don't be her. Much to his disliking Kanaya returned with a girl in black jacket, red jeans, red and white converse, and her red pointed sunglasses. She giggled, "Everyone this is Terezi." Kanaya said. Dave tried to sneak out of the room, but Terezi put her cane against the wall. "Aw Davey you trying to leave without saying hi?" she said a little hurt.
"Now that you mention it, I am." he pushed her cane out of the way, and went to his room. John got up and decided to go follow him, but Rose put a hand on his shoulder. "It's no use when he is like that. I will talk to him later." she smiled softly, and led John back to his seat. Terezi took a seat opposite Jade. "So Terezi what brings to Canada?" Rose said.
"Well, I wanted to come say hi to you guys, seeing as Dave wouldn't do it." Terezi said giggling. "So here I am for a few days." she had the biggest grin. "My boyfriend decided to stay at the hotel for tonight though."
"You got a new boyfriend already?" Kanaya asked a bit condescending.
"Yea, his name is Karkat. He tends to yell and swear a lot, but he is a nice guy." Terezi said grinning. Shit, Karkat is here? I might have to postpone hanging out with Dave until he leaves. John said looking nervous, until Jade put her hand on his elbow. The night went on, John and Jade left at about ten, Terezi being blind was going to stay the night. She went ahead and laid on the couch, turning on the TV. Kanaya decided to go to bed early, so she could go get some work done early tomorrow. Rose went and knocked on Dave's door. "Go away Rose, I don't want to talk about it." He said sullenly. She stood there, mentally counting to five; when she got to five the door opened. Dave stood there his ruby red eyes showing "What?"
"You should really talk about it. If not with me, then at least with Kanaya." Rose said a little worried. "Fine, come in." Dave said and sat on the edge of the bed, Rose sat beside him. "I can't believe she came just to fuck with me. She always knows what annoys, first she change how I acted, and then the music I played. Even after all that, I still wasn't good enough for her." Dave said looking at the ground. Rose rubbed his back "It's ok Dave. You are good enough for someone." she said softly. Dave smiled slightly "Thanks Rose." She smiled and got up; she left his room closing the door. He got up and put on some flannel pajamas, and got under the blanket falling shortly after.
A/N: I was really debating putting Eridan with Terezi, just so I could have Kanaya chase him out with like a fork, but I decided against it. I'd like to thank everyone who read this, reviewed, followed, or favorited.
