"Oh, I thought you meant the dog was a German Shephe– oh my god that is the most adorable dog I have ever seen in my life." Phoebe's eyes widened slightly, and she stretched a tentative hand forward for (him?her?) to sniff.

(Him)
Elide giggled and moved so Shep could sniff at Phoebe’s hand. He sniffed then started to lick it, causing Elide to giggle more, “I think he likes you.”
Phoebe giggled as well, scratching the adorable puppy behind the ears. “Can I hold him? He’s adorabke oh my god.”
Elide nodded and carefully, handed her puppy over to Phoebe, "He's only a few weeks old and is a pain in my backside."
“Pain or no, he’s so freaking cute.” Phoebe kissed the top of Shep’s head, giggling when he kicked her face. “Can you play me your song now?”
Elide immediately went red and nodded, "Uh, yeah, this way. S-Shep can come too if you want…" She smiled before heading up the stairs.
Phoebe followed happily, holding the tiny puppy gently in her arms and wishing she was doing the same with Elide.
Elide opened the door to her room and led them inside. It was fairly plain as she hadn't bothered to do much decorating yet. The room was mainly white apart from the black drawers and, desk and side table. The only other colours were the blue of her guitar, the yellow from a sunflower which sat next to a photo of her family and a pair of drumsticks and the only many photos that she had stuck up above her bed. A few boxes sat in one corner, one titled 'Luke's things.'
Phoebe’s eyes traveled around the room, lingering on a box titled ‘Luke’s Things’. Not wanting to make Elide sad, she quickly turned her head to the blue guitar. “You’ve got a pretty room.”
Elide shrugged and grabbed the guitar, "Thanks but it could use some work." She smiled a little and sat on the bed, checking the instrument was in tune.
“Mm, a little more Elide.” Phoebe sat down next to Elide, listening to her tune.
Elide rolled her eyes with a smile, "Patience."
Phoebe giggled quietly, tilting her head just enough to give her access to Elide's cheek.
Elide blushed a little and went back to making sure the guitar was in tune, playing a small song to make sure. Once that was done, she began to play.
(whoah that's a good song)
Phoebe let her eyes drift shut, a smile playing across her lips while Elide played. She was truly talented, she performed as if it was the guitar playing her and not the other way around.
(Yeah, it is pretty good)
Once Elide finished the song, she wiped away a fear stray tears that had fallen down her cheek. She released a breath, “There…”
Phoebe sat up with a smile, but it quickly dropped off her lips when her eyes fell on the tears staining Elide's face. "Elide?? Are you okay?"
“Hm? Oh yeah, just got too into the song was all…” Elide cracked a small smile as she went to place the guitar back by the boxes.
"You sure?" Phoebe drifted after. "And by the way, you were fantastic."
Elide blushed, “Thank-you. And I’m sure, really.”
Phoebe's smile re-appeared on her face, still shadowed by concern. She nodded, wrapping her arms around Elaine's middle so that her stomach was pressed into her crush's back. "Where'd you learn to play?"
Elide blushed a little more and leaned back into Phoebe, “Dad. He played electric guitar and I asked him to teach me… and also YouTube.”
“Well, you’re fantastic.” Phoebe brought her head forward so that her cheek was pressed up against Elide’s.
Elide closed her eyes and smiled, “Thank-you. It means a-“ She didn’t get to finish as Shep let out a playful bark that set her giggling.
Phoebe burst out laughing and knelt in front of the energetic puppy, bringing a finger up as if she was going to reprimand him. “Shep, behave. How am I going to flirt with Elide if you keep interrupting?”
