Arc eventually came to a conclusion of thought, and he looked at Natalia."Okay, fine, if my friend will let you borrow another guitar, you can go play for money.However, if somebody appears a threat, like they'll hurt you, run.Leave it all behind if you have to, just be safe.."

She hugged him tightly and smiled, "Thank you!"

(Your turn to reply to that strange highschool boy)
"Your w-welcome" he managed to say through the tight hug.

"I'll try again tomorrow," she kissed his chin then nuzzled his cheek.

"I wish you luck tomorrow then" he said.Good luck of course.

She smiled brightly, this adoring green eyes staring into his, "You're awesome. I love you."

He looked at her with hazel eyes,and smiled."Same to you."

She emitted a noise like a purr and leaned into his chest for a second. "Let's have breakfast?"

He heard the purr like sound, he had noted that as a good sound.He looked at her, and nodded an okay.
For now they would eat breakfast, and come tomorrow, it was time for both of them to try to earn money all over again, with a hopefully better outcome.

The next day, Natalia returned home with a giddy smoky on her face. It was a bit later in the evening but the sun hadn't gone down yet so she hoped Arc was back from whatever job he was doing.
"Aaaarc~" she sang out, "Even humans payed me! I got 50 dollars and change."

Thankfully, Arc had returned home only minutes before she had.He walked into the room, "that's good"

She smiled and gave him the jar, "I know it's not nearly enough to pay for even part of the repairs, but I might get more tomorrow~"

Arc took the jar, and looked at the money inside, then looked at Natalia, “thank you” he said.

She dumped it onto the table and then put the jar in the mantle over the fire place, "Want me to play you something?" she asked.

Arc went and retrieved the money he had earned today, and set it on the other side of the table, so the two could count how much they had managed to earn on day 1.He looked at Natalia, "sure!" He answered.

She swung the guitar around and sat down, cross-legged on the floor.
"Anything specific you wanna hear?" she asked with a bright smile.

"Surprise me" he said.He couldn't think of any song, tune, or melody at the time, so he just went with that.

She nodded and strummed the guitar a few times as she searches for the right spots with her fingers.
"Am I loud and clear, or am breaking up? Am I still your charm, or am I just baaaad luck? Are we getting closer or are we just getting more lost?" she sang beautifully.

He listened to her strum the guitar, and her singing, beautiful singing.He listened as much as his ears would allow.Which was all of it.

"I'll show you mine if you show me yours first
Let's compare scars, I'll tell you whose is worse
Let's unwrite these pages and replace them with our own words," she continued, smiling brightly at Arc the whole time.

"We live on front porches and swing life away,
We get by just fine here on minimum wage
If love is a labor I'll slave till the end,
I won't cross these streets until you hold my hand

I've been here so long, I think that it's time to move
The winter's so cold, summer's over too soon
Let's pack our bags and settle down where palm trees grow

I've got some friends, some that I hardly know
But we've had some times, I wouldn't trade for the world
We chase these days down with talks of the places that we will go

We live on front porches and swing life away,
We get by just fine here on minimum wage
If love is a labor I'll slave till the end,
I won't cross these streets until you hold my hand....until you hold my hand

I'll show you mine if you show me yours first
Let's compare scars, I'll tell you whose is worse
Let's unwrite these pages and replace them with our own words

We live on front porches and swing life away,
We get by just fine here on minimum wage
If love is a labor I'll slave till the end,
I won't cross these streets until you hold my hand

Swing life away~ Swing life away~ Swiiiing life awaaaay, swing life away~"

"So, did you like it?" she asked with a smile stretching from ear to ear.
