Tucker: Hey Celia! I didn’t know you were gonna be here?

Celia: Hi Tucker! I didn’t either, well I knew I was going to be here, but I didn’t know you were going to be here. Do you like my dress?

Tucker: *he chuckles* Yeah, I don’t normally go to dances, but this one looked ok so I thought I would show up. I love it! More festive than my suit.

Celia: I love dances, I think. *she giggles* I’ve only actually been to one before this one, Homecoming right when I got here. *she twirls* Someone told me it’s like what Santa wears

Tucker: Well, I’ve never really seen what Santa looks like, I’ve heard of him but never celebrated Christmas really. *He shrugs* It looks good though. Homecoming? Oh yeah, I went to that one too, only to DJ though.

Celia: Geppetto use to put up stockings for my mother and Figaro and me, but I always saw him put the treats in the stockings so I know Santa’s not real *she smiles and shrugs* You DJ’d homecoming? I liked the music

Tucker: Tucker smiled* How do you know that Geppetto isn’t one of Santa’s helpers? Maybe he was filling the stockings for Santa? And yeah, I did. I’m really into to music. Thanks, that means a lot that someone noticed.

Celia: *Celia covered her mouth and giggled* I don’t think so, he’s just a wood cutter. Oh ya? Do you play anything? Or just DJ? I wish I was good at something

Tucker: I played guitar, piano, drums, trumpet and I sing. I just love music all around. *He rests a hand on her shoulder* I’m sure your good at something.

Celia: That’s so cool! *Celia clapped her hands together* I like singing, I don’t know if I’m any good though *she shrugged*

Tucker: I’m sure your good at singing! Do you want to try a duet with me? I brought my guitar. *Taps the case that is sitting next to him*

Celia: Right now?

Tucker: Yeah, why not?

Celia: Oh, I don’t know, sure!

Tucker: *takes her hand and walks over to a bench* Take a seat! *opens guitar case and strums the first chords of let it snow* oh the weather outside is frightful…

Celia: *Giggles* But the fire is so delightful!

Tucker: The lights are turning way down low, Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow. *continues strumming on the guitar*
