Chapter Text
There's a Concert downtown tonight, I've heard of her name before. She's quite brilliant with the piano and I can't let this opportunity pass. I have to attend to hear her play in person.
It's a large crowd tonight but I've managed to get a seat close to the stage, I love seeing a pianist play. Their fingers glide on the ivories like air. They have the ability to play the most beautiful pieces.
"Ladies and Gentlemen, Ms._______ playing Beethoven's piano concertos"
I see her as she walks onto the stage, she's amazing. Beautiful and elegant, she hasn't even played yet and I'm already infatuated with her.
Beginning to play she is graceful and the music fills the concert hall and I'm transported to a wonderful peaceful place.
The concert is over far to fast. I must meet her. As the audience rises for a standing ovation I get a usher to get me backstage. A stage hand greets me and asks what could he help me with.
"I need to speak to Mrs._____. Right away please."
"Certainly Mr. Cumberbatch please follow me."
He took me to her dressing room and knocked on the door.
"Yes?" She spoke.
"Excuse me ma'am, Mr. Cumberbatch would like to speak with you."
Through the door I hear a crash and a few curses as she apparently kicks into the table in a rush to open the door.
She's blushing as she opens it and invites me in.
"I'm sorry Mrs.______, I just wanted to speak with you and tell you how amazing the concert was. I enjoyed it greatly."
"It's______ please. Thank you, I'm honored to have had you in the audience." She tells me her first name.
I'm attracted to her already, not just from her beauty but by the way she seems very cultured and the way she carries herself. I can't explain it really, I'm enchanted by her.
"Um, I...I was wondering..." I stutter a bit and blush.
"Yes?"
"Um, would you like to have dinner sometime?" I blurt out.
Smiling and blushing even more she speaks. "I would love that."
"Great, here... Please take my number." I say as I hand her my card with my personal number on the back.
"Here, please call me when it's a good time to meet." She says as she hands me her number as well.
I try walking out but it seems I have a spell over me, I can't leave her.
We ended up spending so much time in her dressing room the stage hand had to tell us he was closing up.
What a wonderful night in the presence of a wonderful woman. I can't wait to see her again.
