"Exactly. So I think you were being hard on yourself there, but I suppose we all have times like that. I'm pretty much an expert of being hard on yourself, as you may know." She shrugged as well, leaning back a bit.

"Understatement of the century, Penny. Understatement of the century. So! What are you up to later? Still going to practice, or is that now pretty much blown out of the water?"

Penny gasped as if she were offended, although it was quite obvious she was joking. She then rolled her eyes. "Oh yes. It's blown out of the water to the point of being in space." She scoffed a bit. "And if they don't like it, well too bad."

"Well, that's pretty far out. Excuse the pun. So now that it's blown out of the water, what are you planning on doing? Want to practice with me, or just not practice at all and do something entirely different?" ((If they practice now, we can do the get together scene. If not, it'll come later your choice ))

((We're definitely having it happen now! )) Penny, pleasantly surprised, looked toward Kyle and grinned. "I think I'll practice with you for a bit. Just as long as it's not keeping you from anything." She stood up for a moment.

((You are so impatient. )) "Okay," Kyle answered, shrugging and climbing onto the stage. "We've already established I have no social life. It's not keeping me from anything." He stood up straight, waiting for her to follow. "Take your sweet time."

((You only noticed that now? )) Penny rolled her eyes as she pulled out some of her music from her backpack. She turned toward the stage and opted to climb on it like he did, but decided against it. She wasn't sure if that'd go well with the skirt, so she just took the long way on. Smiling sheepishly, she started scanning piece of paper with her eyes.

Kyle took a step closer to her, taking a corner of the paper in his hand. Concentrating on the paper (he had definitely noticed their comfortable closeness), he pointed to one of the lines of music closest to Penny. "Which part are you going over first?" ((we should have them carry on like this for awhile- a short while, anyway ))

((I should think so, yes. )) Narrowing her eyes slightly, Penny pointed toward a place. "Probably right around here. "Anatevka" is the one I want to concentrate on right now..." She glanced up, suddenly realizing just how close they were at the moment. Shaking her head, she averted her gaze back to her music. After looking over the notes, she made a small attempt. " What do we leave? Nothing much. Only Anatevka..."

Kyle smiled. She really did have a beautiful voice. "Your sightreading is pretty good. You play the piano, right?" He studied over the page of music. Music was like math, which made him a little closer to understanding it.

Penny glanced up, smiling a bit. "Yeah, a little bit. It's not as fun as singing for me, but it's okay. And thanks." She turned back to her music, her index finger trailing along after the lyrics. "Anatevka, Anatevka, underfed, overworked Anatevka. Where else can Sabbath be so sweet?"

And her fingers...Kyle's eyes followed the path they made along the paper, his heart skipping a random beat here and there. It wasn't right for him to be thinking that about her, though. They were friends- just friends. Plus they had just met...and he was Kyle. Kyle never thought about things like that. "You sure you need the practice? You sound like you have it already."

Penny smiled weakly, now starting to blush a bit. "Well...I just wanted to make sure. There's never any harm in that, after all." She glanced up at him for a brief moment, frowning softly. "Are you okay?" He seemed a bit....she wasn't quite sure how to describe it, actually.

((here goes...))
Kyle glanced down upon hearing her voice, his eyes catching hers. It was then that he realized that he couldn't take it anymore. She would probably run away, or slap him, and it was that that he was most afraid of. He really, really didn't want to mess this up, but the rational part of his brain was losing this battle. "Penny," he whispered, his voice low but soft. He slowly lifted his left hand, leading a stray red hair out of her face and tucking it behind her ear.

Penny took in a sharp breath of air at this simple action. Her heart was pounding and she couldn't even think at the moment. She wasn't one to really follow her impulses, but if there was ever a time to start, it'd be now.
Her eyes were locked with his before you could hear the stapled booklet fall to the floor. She took his hands in hers, relishing in how protected she felt being near him. Silly as it was, she did, which was a good part of the reason she always felt disappointed when they let go of eachother's hands after shaking them. Without a moment's thought, she stood on her tiptoes and kissed him.
