As she brought out her cello she continued to stare at him, as if in a daze and tripped, twice, on nothing before she had even gotten the cello out of its case. Forcing herself to concentrate she managed to stop thinking about him for maybe half an hour, but every time she finished a piece she had to concentrate even harder just to start the next piece. All the while, he hadn't even noticed, or even stopped playing for that matter.

An hour later she had finished. And the next morning on the weekend as she did every week, stayed at her old house in ponyville, and ( now owned solely by Vinyl Scratch) decided to go to Sugarcube Corner for a bite to eat. She ordered a coffee and a daffodil sandwich (an unusual order for a venue of its type) and sat down at a table, waiting for her food and then, the impossible, well, nearly impossible, happened; The same pony she saw earlier sat down opposite her with 2 blueberry muffins and a hot chocolate. He took a book out of his bag, moving the bag as he did so. His Cutie mark was a C Major scale (for those who don't know, its a C to the next C up on the piano/Keyboard) on a diagonal so it stretched slightly onto the leg.

And for the first time today, he spoke, "I couldn't help but notice, that in the hall you could barely take your eyes off me, may I ask why?" Octavia's cheeks suddenly turned a bright pink/crimson as she looked away she realised she was too embarrassed to speak.

"Ah, I see, well, my name is Sebastian, Sebastian Lighthoof." he spoke in a slight London accent with a tinge of American. He produced a fob watch from his bag as if to check the time, he glanced at it, didn't even open it and then put it away. He then spoke again "So, be honest, what do you think of me? I mean, you WERE staring at me for so long that there has to be something about me to you."

Octavia Looked him in the eyes, those beautiful sapphire eyes and said "You, are the most beautiful thing I have seen in my life, without a doubt." Octavia looked away for a split second and said "and you?". He would have answered, had Pinkie Pie not entered with her party cannon and shouted something about random parties and avoiding cancer.
