~You're a little teacup SHORT and STOUT~
BE QUIET Teicup ordered, her eyes filling with tears. The kids had followed her home from school, again. Her purple backpack was held close to her chest and she could feel her handwritten music sheets being smushed inside. She wondered if she'd waited long enough to let the ink dry before shoving them into her bag after music, her last period of the day at school. She quickly bolted down the street away from her fellow peers and ducked down behind a tree.
What un-creative people, she thought to herself. They failed to come up with a song that was either catchy or creative, in fact they ripped off an old children's song. She remembered what her Dad had once told her....He'd pulled her onto her lap and talked to her about their favourite thing in the world, song-writing and music.
Music cannot be created for the reason to harm others. He'd told her.
Music is created out of emotions like anger, sadness & happiness. It must come to life from something else. It cannot be created from the will to harm someone else. That kind of music, is just noise.
Teicup smiled to herself. Just noise. The next time she saw him, she'd defiantly muster up the courage to present her song to him. She pressed her bag flat onto her lap pulling out her much loved piece of music, her own piece of music. Her handwriting spiralled across the page in the form of tiny black notes, to be played on the piano or sung. Teicup pulled out a pencil and added a few more notes, she'd play them later to make sure they fit with the rest of her piece and if they did, she'd bring out her ink bottle and carefully make them permanent. She was always updating her song and was forever finding herself too shy to show her father.
She chewed the end of her pencil she was at a total loss on how to slowly trail the piece towards the end. How does one end a song? It's just not the same as putting period at the end as you do with a thought in English class.
She let her mind wander back to her father.
Don't seek it out, when the time is right, the music will come to you. You can't go chasing after it. And when you finally find it, you'll just know. It'll hit you like a gust of wind, and then be gone.
The patter of footsteps came from over the hill she'd just run over. No! They've found me... Teicup stood and shoved her pages into her bag, but she stood up too quickly and bumped her head on a low hanging tree branch dropping her bag and blinking dazed for a moment. However, it was only a moment that they had needed to catch up with her.
A foot crushed her backpack into the ground leaving a footprint on the exterior, on the interior Teicup knew her hard work was being crunched and possibly torn. She whimpered and stepped forward to save it but a pair of hands pushed her backwards into the trunk of the tree. She yelped as she again hit her head onto a branch and her straight pink hair got tangled in the sharp branches. She pulled desperately at her hair.
Stoppit, PLEASE. That's mine.... She felt a tear drip down her face. All her hard work and her father hadn't even heard it yet.
HEY! You kids get away from her! Teicup blinked in surprise as the kids bolted and a slender shadow xweetok walked calmly towards her. Her small hands quickly untangled Teicup from the tree and pressed her backpack into her hands. Teicup barely had the time to notice the older stranger's stunning blue eyes and dark hair before she'd turned and folded her hands back into the pocket of her dark pants and headed back up the hill.
The xweetok turned and looked over her shoulder.
...You shouldn't let those kids bug you. she said quietly and her long black hair blew in the wind as she turned again and disappeared over the hill.
Teicup blink again in surprise darting to the top of the hill to see the dark blue shirt of the shadow xweetok walk down another street. The wind shook the branches of the tree and blew Teicup's blue ribbon, which was always in her long pink hair.
And when you finally find it, you'll just know. It'll hit you like a gust of wind, and then be gone.... she repeated to herself. The sparkling blue eyes of the mysterious xweetok glimmered in her memory as she took off down the hill and followed down the street where she'd last seen the flicker of dark hair.

Harmony
Isn't she sweet?
Harmony is Teicup's small pink harris. She found Harmony one day while she was walking through the park listening for sounds that might inspire her music piece. Although Harmony is small, she has a big mouth and is frequently getting Teicup into sticky situations. Some small critters think they know more than they actually do.
(Harmony is in my gallery she'll be painted pink later when I have the np's ^^
*While looking at stars*
Tei: Hey, Harmony, ever wonder what those sparkly dots are up there?
Harmony: Teicup, I don't wonder; I know.
Tei: Oh. What are they?
Harmony: They're fireflies. Fireflies that, uh... got stuck up on that big bluish-black thing.
Teicup: Oh, gee. I always thought they were balls of gas burning billions of miles away.

Oh rly?
