Part 47: Always Will Be

Dean

The time was upon them and it was their turn to perform, and Dean knew Alison was terrified but he had faith in her. He knew she could do it and he'd do anything in his power to help her along the way. 

After nodding to Professor Smoak Dean began the melody but after being a few notes in, he realizing Alison wasn't joining in, looking up he saw that she was frozen in place her hand right hand above the strings as if about to play. He counted two beats and after realizing she wasn't going to join he stopped and took a step forward toward her. 

"Hey, hey Alison are you okay?" she slightly shook her head and he placed both his hands on either of her biceps.

"Look at me Alison," sighing she looked into his eyes, "Now take a deep breath in then exhale." 

After repeating this three times she then calmed down and nodded. Sighing in relief that she wasn't going to faint he nodded to Professor Smoak who had stood from his chair.
