People were still arriving and Caradoc thought he would give them a few more minutes before introducing the agenda for the evening and opening the floor to his guests.

Rose was running late. She was so excited about the musical club meeting, and she was late. It was really the excitement that caused it, as she had gotten distracted as she warmed up her voice in the shower, singing scales and arpeggios. She had lost track of time and her curls were still damp as she hurried up the sidewalk, singing. Rose had gotten a few odd looks on the way, but really, who didn't like Ella Fitzgerald?

Summertime, and the livin' is easy.

She finished the song then knocked on the door, hoping the meeting hadn't started quite yet.

Cai thought she heard singing outside, but it stopped before the knock. "Welcomes to the Warren, Missie. The meeting is being this way." She stepped aside and let the young woman in, beaming brightly. She looked like Young Master Jasper's wife did when she was younger.

Caradoc saw Cai excitedly bringing in another guest. "Good evening. I'm Caradoc Dearborn." He held out his hand to the new, yet somehow familiar face. "Forgive me for staring, but you look remarkably like my eldest nephew's wife. Doesn't she, Cai?"

The old elf clapped. "Oh yeses. Missie is good singer too. Is knowing Missus Ella Fitzgerald, Master."

"Ella Fitzgerald? I will definitely need to introduce you to our jazz combo then."

Rose grinned at the house elf, who was simply precious. "Thank you. Please call me Rose."

The elf led her to the host, and Rose was impressed. The man was certainly handsome, if approximately twice her age. "Hello, I'm Rose Zeller." She thrust out her own hand and shook his. "I'm glad I could make this meeting." She grinned at his comment about his nephew's wife. "Do I really? Is she Jewish too?"

"I love Ella Fitzgerald. I've done a lot of classical singing as well, was in a few groups back in Israel, but jazz is my first love. Ella, Billie, anything really."

Luna arrived at the address Mr. Dearborn had given her, hoping that she wasn't too late for the meeting. It was one of the problems with having a work schedule that was virtually the opposite of everyone else's she knew. She'd had to wait at the hospital for her relief to come and cover the first part of her double shift.

She knocked at the door, shifting slightly. If all went well, she'd be able to make her announcement tonight. While she didn't feel particularly nervous about that, she hoped there would at least be some interest. This would be her first opportunity to gauge that since she'd gotten the idea last week.

"Welcomes to the Warren. Is Missie here for the Musics Meeting?"

The little elf showed the young lady to the family room where the meeting had already started and Su Li was answering questions. After showing her a seat, Cai went to Caradoc and quietly informed him 'Missie Lovegood' was here now. Caradoc turned and smiled at the new comer and nodded. He would introduce her after Miss Li had finished.
