[Sabrina Sanchez]

Sabrina walked inside Hollywood hits and smiled. She absolutely loved it in here, it had always been one of her favorite stores. No matter what CD she was looking for she could always find it in here.
She began walking around. She wasn't looking for anything in particular today, she just came in on a whim. Smiling to herself she browsed the shelves, ocasionally picking up a CD and looking over it.
Sabrina had always dreamed that someday she'd come in here and find her own CD in this store. She completely loved music and singing was her passion. It wasn't something she shared with everyone but she still completely loved it.
After a little while she found a CD she wanted to listen to. Picking it up she walked over to one of the areas where you could listen. She scanned the CD and put on the headphones. Almost instantly she became absorbed in the music, tapping her foot along to the beat.

[Eril O'mally]

Eril of course just had to go to a music store while he was here. He was a music freak, more of the punkish persuasion but it was still music. He smiled to himself as he set the CD by the scanner and it started. ERil was so absorbed in to the music that everything, even the girl next to him, had become lost. He started to head bang and dance to the flow and beat of the music loving every minute of it knowing that this was just as good as anything in the world. A little known fact about him is that he actually had started a band in Ireland, and become quiet famous, but because it took away from his time from his sisters he had to quit and pay more attention to them to make sure that they were okay. "To lead them in the black parade!" he sung using his true singing voice something that was a prized commodity in Ireland.

Sabrina didn't notice someone was next to her listening to a CD until she heard him sing. She paused the CD, not taking her head phones off. Wow. She thought to herself while she listened to him singing. She glanced over at him and then back at the scanner. She wanted to say something to him but didn't and instead just pressed play again. This time she turned down the volume though, so she could still hear him singing.

[Eril O'mally]

Eril's song had stopped and he frowned. He searched for more songs but found nothing 'Damn CD! One good song and then it's over! Oh well at least my originals can keep me busy.' he thought to himself as he walked down the row. Slowly and melodically he started to sing to himself. This was one of his songs, and he knew it all to well making his singing twice as good as it was before. This song was different than the one that he was singing before, it was more lyrical, slower, obviously more like a lullaby. It was beautiful in nature, when ever he sung it in Ireland the music lovers would always flock to him in amazement as if he was some sort of siren...but he would shrug it off because he couldn't afford to sing not when it came at the expense of his sisters.

[Sabrina Sanchez]

Sabrina glanced back over at him just as he began to walk away. She started to turn up the volume again until she heard him start singing again. It was a song that she didn't know well. She had heard it once, her cousin had told her to listen to it. She listened intently this time taking the headphones off and turning her head more in his directions. "Wow." She said quietly. She had heard few people that sounded that good singing, especially a cappella. She glanced back and forth between him and the headphones in front of her.

[Eril O'mally]

Eril noticed the girl and then blushed. He shouldn't have ruined her CD...He was going to apologize. Eril walked over to the girl and smiled and stuck his hand out "Hi the names Eril. Listen I'm sorry for singing, I know that probably ruined the CD for you with my horrible voice, if there is anything I can do to compensate for that I'll gladly do it lass." Eril chided himself. He had let his accent show through but it didn't work and it even turned out thicker than it had before, it in turn earned him lustful stares from several of the girls around him. Normally he would act on it but the thing is that he was willing to help this girl with her music delema and nothing was going to come in the way of that!!

[Sabrina Sanchez]

Sabrina looked down again once she saw that he was walking over. She was a little embarassed that he had noticed her listening, but then again she didn't care. She smiled and shook his hand. "I'm Sabrina. And it's fine, didn't ruin anything. I've already listened to this CD a ton of times. Besides you have an amazing voice." She blushed a little after saying that. She gazed around the room and noticed that after he had said what he said in an accent that a bunch of girls stared at him. Completely lustfully too. Sabrina laughed lightly at that then looked back at him.

[Eril O'mally]

"Sorry I always attract attention with my accent...The luck of the Irish as Americans say. So I think that I could at least repay you by taking you out to lunch. Of course thats if you don't mind me asking." he said smiling still feeling that he had to rectify the situation some how. This girl was a fellow music lover so maybe they could talk about music while they were out eating.

[Sabrina Sanchez]

"If you really feel like you need to do that, then lunch sounds great." She said smiling. She glanced around at the girls who were still drooling over him. She tried not to laugh again. The power of an accent. She thought to herself.

[Eril O'mally]

Eril held out his arm and waited until she hooked hers in his. Once she did he started to walk out towards what he knew to be a good cafe, some place that hey could have coffe and something to eat at. "So do you sing? I mean do you have a band or something?" Eril asked as they walked on their way towards the cafe. There was something about this girl that made him comfortable, that made him feel as though he could relax and be himself for once with out having to worry about the consequences, or trying to hide someting...and he only just met her! This was insane.

[Sabrina Sanchez]

Sabrina smiled as they began walking. She felt quite at ease around him and she wasn't exactly sure why. She also wasn't so sure she wanted to find out, but then again she really did. "Yeah, but I'm not in a band. So far it's just me singing and playing guitar." She smiled at the thought of it. Singing always made her happy and gave her such a rush.

[Eril O'mally]

"I remember when I use to live in Ireland. I had a successful band, and we could have gotten a good deal. But I found out that my sisters needed me more so I just dropped everything so that I could take care of them more." Yeah for some reason that actually felt relieving to tell her that. If he didn't watch himself he would be telling this girl his whole life story, something that he's never done with anyone.

[Sabrina Sanchez]

She smiled when he said that he had a sucessful band when he lived in Ireland. She knew that's why his singing voice sounded so familiar when he was singing that song. It was probably one he had song with his band, one that maybe he had written. "The song you were singing, it's one you sang with your band, right?" She was hoping for a yes. For some reason the idea of it excited her.

[Eril O'mally]

"Yeah. That was one of my favorites, it was all about my parents and my family. It's a very special song to me." he said iwth a smile on his face as he looked at her. "So since you've heard me sing I think that it's time that I get a chance to hear you sing one of your original." he added hoping that she would.

[Sabrina Sanchez]

She smiled while she listened to him talk. She loved listening to people talk about what they loved most. It always interested her more than anything else. Her smiled faded a little when he asked about hearing her sing one of her originals. She wouldn't have hesitated to sing for him if he didn't ask her to sing about one of hers. She looked at him and shrugged. "I don't know... the songs aren't all that good." She said quietly. Singing an original in front of anyone, let along someone she had just met, scared her.
