"Oh, yes, definitely," he laughed, "And Cruz has been anticipating you for a while," he winked a green eye.

Fae’s cheeks went pink. “I-I’ll go do that now.”, she stuttered.
(@Topaz, yes, I think Sabine would appreciate if Macha did something with her.)
Macha dialed Sabine’s number.
Augustus gave another smile before opening his book to get lost in.
Cruz groaned quietly, closing his eyes and lying on his back too alieve the ache from hunching.
Sabine's brothers had gone back home to rest, so now Sabine was staring at the ceiling, bored out of her mind. Then her phone started ringing. She picked it up. It was Macha. She picked up. "Hey Macha! What's up?"
Fae rapped lightly on the door frame. “Hey, Cruz.”
Cruz didn't seem to hear her knock, thanks to the loud music in his earbuds.
She crouched down, tapping him on the shoulder.
He opened his eyes, blinked, and lifted his hands to take out the earbuds. "Fae!" He exclaimed with a grin.
Fae grinned back. “Hey, Cruz! Whatcha listening to?”
"Coldplay," he laughed, turning off the music and standing up. He slid his hands into his jean pockets, "How.. how are you?" He smiled affectionately.
Fae set the Eclairs on the table. “Not to bad, you?” She squeezed his hand.
"Nervous," he replied, nodding his head briefly to direct her attention to the guitar sat up in the corner.
A smile lit up her face. “Don’t be.”, she laughed softly. “I’m sure it will be spectacular.”
"Make yourself comfy," he laughed, walking to pick up the instrument and check the tuning real quick.
Fae pulled up a chair and sat, content elatedness sweeping through her.
He sat indian style on the floor, situating the guitar on his lap. He looked up to her with eager dark eyes. "Ready?"
Fae nodded enthusiastically, folding her hands in her lap. “Go ahead.”, she grinned.
He cleared his throat briefly. He began strumming his fingers, producing a lemon-sweet chord.
Fae’s eyes were glued to him, her ears buzzing from the beautiful beginning. She smiled, encouraging him.
He exhaled a breath, relaxing a little more. He began the intro by humming, keeping his eyes on the guitar strings as he sang.
"Mm, mmm, mm, mm
Lirios cubren la tierra
Rosada, blanca, y morada
El nectár fluye sobre la hierba
Una manta dulce de felicidad
Para el reino
Pero cuando llueve
Cuando los nubes se asientan,
Y rompen seguridad
Tu alma quita la oscuridad
Tu corazón nos protege en,
Un, fortazela
Un fortazela de piedra
Los flores se inclinan
Sus colores brillan
En reverencia a ti
Tus rasgos amorosos
Hacen que los cosmos sea celoso
Me hace pensar,
¿Por qué me amas?
Mi corazón está lleno
De pasión por ti
Hambriento de el nectár de amor
De amor, de amor, amor y color
Amor, amor, crema, azula, verde brilliante
Amor, amor de las flores
De colores
Mmm, mmm, mmm, mm
Mm, mm, amor
Y color
Par'amor…"
Side note, google translate is mostly right except for a few words xD )
(Oh my god that is such a sweet song! You can congratulate yourself on your songwriting abilities ;)
By the end of the song, Fae had tears of joy in her eyes and both hands clasped over her heart. Her limited knowledge of Spanish had translated a good few of the words for her, leaving her speechless with wonder and incredibly touched by Cruz’s amazing gesture. She clapped so hard her hands hurt, a few tears even spilling over. “Cruz, that was beautiful! Thank you so much”, she said, voice saturated with emotion.
Macha smiled. “Hey, Sabine, you feeling any better?”
"Yeah, a lot better, thanks. Especially because a family friend, by some miracle, pulled my brother's out of the navy so that they could come see me!" Sabine answered. "But they had to go home to sleep a few hours ago, so I'm bored out of my mind."
“Good for you!” Macha replied, referring to the brothers bit. If you’re feeling up to it, there’s a little Art Fair going on all of this week by the falls, and Fae’s at work right now, so d’you wanna go together?”
"Oh, I would love too! What do you have in mind?"
“Well, they sell pieces for pretty low prices, and there’s lot’s of stuff, not just paintings. Fae will probably make some pottery stuff for it later in this week. Are you available, like, now?”
"No, I'm completely booked for today." Sabine said sarcastically. "Yes! Of course I'm available!" She said giggling.
