Alright folks, this will be a short, open RP so if you have a reason to be up on the 6th floor and notice something jump on in! The 'mystery' will last about 40 minutes total for the characters including the small breaks between parts. I'll be posting nine times total and maybe one or two more after that to wrap things up. I would recommend using the link in each post.
Selena had never seen this room before but was instantly grateful she had found it. It had been far too long since she'd sat down and just played to enjoy the music. With a very small smile she crosses the large open space and settles on the bench of the piano, lightly gliding her finger-tips over the keys before straightening her spine and placing her hands over the starting keys.
The music when it started had a moderate tempo, the notes repetitive and steady. The sound carried clearly across the room and out the slightly open door to the Conservatory. After perhaps 25 seconds of steady music Selena began to sing.

"Dear my love, haven't you wanted to be with me;
And dear my love, haven't you longed to be free.
I can't keep pretending that I don't even know you;
And at sweet night, you are my own.
Take my hand...
We're leaving here tonight.
There's no need to tell anyone,
They'd only hold us down.
So by the morning's light...
We'll be half way to anywhere,
Where love is more than just your name.
I have dreamt of a place for you and I;
No one knows who we are there.
All I want is to give my life only to you;
I've dreamt so long I cannot dream anymore.
Let's run away, I'll take you there...
We're leaving here tonight.
There's no need to tell anyone,
They'd only hold us down.
So by the morning's light...
We'll be half way to anywhere,
Where no one needs a reason...
Forget this life,
Come with me.
Don't look back you're safe now...
Unlock your heart,
Drop your guard.
No one's left to stop you...
Forget this life,
Come with me.
Don't look back you're safe now...
Unlock your heart,
Drop your guard.
No one's left to stop you now...
We're leaving here tonight.
There's no need to tell anyone,
They'd only hold us down.
So by the morning's light...
We'll be half way to anywhere,
Where love is more than just your name...
Yeah yeah, yeah yeah, yeah yeah..."
Selena continues playing for another 15 seconds or so then lets the music fade away. The second it does her posture relaxes and she sighs heavily, rolling her neck and shoulders to work out the stiffness of not having played in ages. After a couple minutes she sits up straight again and prepares to begin a new song.
