Edge sat down on one of the many benches in Hogwarts, watching a snowflake lazily fall onto his hand. Next to him was a rather old, beat-up acoustic guitar (a gift from his friend Edward) and a recently opened letter. Edge picked up the old guitar and lightly strummed it, his fingers settling into the familiar chords. He sat like that for a while before he set his guitar down once more, heaving a deep sigh. "Damn it..." He cursed. "She could've at least been NICE about the letter."

Gaia heard the guitar playing and followed it, attracted to the music.
"Oh!" She said when she found the source of the music. "Hello! I've seen you around the school. I'm sorry if I'm interupting you, I just heard the music..." Gaia trailed off, unsure of what to say. Should she leave?

Edge glanced over at the new girl who had arrived. "Oh, no, it's fine ma'am. I don't mind." He picked up his guitar and looked at the girl quizically. "If you'd like, I could play something more..."

Gaia smiled, pulling some of her hair down on the left side of her face.
"Well... Yes, I'd like that..."

Edge tuned up his guitar, checking to make sure it hadn't gotten out of whack since he last played it. "Well, I only know about three songs, so here goes..." He strummed lightly and began to play, softly singing along to the song.
"The walls between
You and I
Always pushing us apart nothing left but scars fight after fight
The space between
Our calm and rage
started growing shorter, disappearing slowly day after day
I was sitting there waiting in my room for you
You were waiting for me too
And it makes me wonder
The older I get
Will I get over it
It's been way too long for the times we missed
I didn't know then it would hurt like this but I think
The older I get
Maybe I'll get over it
It's been way too long for the times we missed
I can't believe it still hurts like this..."
He stopped. Why did he choose that song? He hated it.

Gaia stared in shock.
"What.... what song is that?" She was struck by how beautiful it was and how struck he was by it.
"Did you write it?"

Edge scratched his cheek lightly, a bit embarrassed that he had played THAT song. "The song's titled 'The Older I Get.' It was made by a Muggle band I like, Skillet." He placed his guitar down. "I hadn't planned on playing that song..."

Gaia looked down.
"Well... Sometimes unplanned things are the best... or the worst..."

Edge scoffed. "Worse, in my case. Trust me, I didn't want to play that song. It hits too close to home for me..." He involuntarily thought of her, and how beautiful she was, and... NO! Bad Edge! He wasn't going to remember how she brutally stomped on his feelings...

Gaia looked at him quizzically. She didn't know what to say to that.
