tune

Jay kept looking, grabbing all the ones he could find before starting to make his way back. Leo watched her, curiously, wagging his tail slightly.

She continued to hum along to the songs and dance as best she could, eyes closing with a smile as she loosened up and had some semblance of fun in forever. Delia didn’t even look for Leo, trusting that he would stay out of the way as she danced.

Jay came back quietly, and watched her for a moment, quiet. She looks…beautiful. he thought, then bit his lip.

His footsteps when he came back blended right into the song and she didn’t notice he was back, even as the song switched and she slowed her dancing for a moment until the next song started. This one wasn’t as upbeat and danceable as the other one, but she still managed, even doing little half steps around.

Jay smiled slightly, and set the CDs down as he watched her. Oh God…this is… He bit his lip. I'm going to kill her. Someday, i will kill her and i won't be able to stop it.

After a few more steps she opened her eyes to glance at Leo, though slight moment caught her eye and she turned. Her face flushed bright red when she saw who it was and she cleared her throat, “How long have you been standing there?” She shifted around in on her feet and slowed her dancing back to swaying softly, watching as Leo trotted up to Jay and sat by his feet.

Jay smiled slightly. "A few minutes." He replied, trying to shake his thoughts away. It'll be just like…the final test…oh God I can't do this. He looked at the window for a moment.

Her face flushed more and she looked to the ground with a small smile, embarrassed that the had seen her dancing goofily. “Did you find any more CD’s?” She asked, pausing the one that was going now so she could talk to him.

Jay nodded, setting about five CD cases down. "Yeah." He replied, spreading them out so she could see. Leo barked softly, sniffing curiously at the boxes, wagging his tail.

She looked down at them and tried to decipher what the cases said, only able to make out one, “I think this one is a older rock or just old songs?” Delia pointed to the one she was talking about and shrugged for the rest of them, “The others I can’t read well enough for sure, though the next one over might be Johnny Cash?”

He nodded. "Johnny Cash." He touched another. "This one is alt-pop." He said. "This one is…I'm not sure." He looked over at her with a small smile.

“Hand it up here, maybe I can decipher it.” She motioned for him to give it to her and a small smile appeared on her face at the different possibilities of what songs could be on it.

He handed it to her, looking at the others still. Leo bounded over to him happily. Jay petted the puppy gently.

She was silent as she studied it, eyebrows furrowed in concentration. “Zeke’s…favorite…..song mix?” She made out, looking towards him with a shrug, “I think that’s what it says, but it doesn’t list the songs. We’ll just have to play them and find out what they are.”

Jay laughed. "Alright. That works." He said with a smile, standing up. Leo whined, nuzzling at his leg. He reached down and picked up the little puppy.

“We’re playing this one then?” She guessed with a small smile, reaching over and petting Leo for a moment. Shifting around, she opened the CD player and changed out the discs, putting the old disc in the case.

"Sure." He said, petting the puppy gently, a small smile on his face. Leo squirmed happily.

She pressed play on the song and stepped back with a smile, listening to the CD as it started to play. She couldn’t tell the song immediately, so she looked go Jay to see if he knew it.

Jay smiled slightly, and started to hum along, closing his eyes. Leo barked softly.

“I don’t know what song this is,” She admitted, glancing at him and smiling at his humming. He looked really freaking cute humming and holding Leo, the suit adding to it as well.

Jay looked up, smiling and still humming. "How do you not know this song?" He asked with a smile.

Delia fake scowled at him, “I lived in he country, remember? My parents loved country songs, so that’s what I know the best.” She sighed and listened to the song for another moment, shaking her head, “I know as soon as you say the name I’ll remember it.”

"Its one of Ed Sheeran's ones. I don't actually remember the name." Jay replied.

“Well, it’s not Perfect, because otherwise I’d be dancing,” She sighed and listed to the song a little longer, a tiny smile twitching onto her face when she started remembering lyrics, “Is it Galway Girl?”

Jay nodded, and started to sing along softly.
