She was only passing by, but she figured she would poke her head in to see what was up. Of course, much to her surprise when she saw a familiar face in there. Gumi smiled, hanging out in the doorway for a few moments and just watching him. He was getting pretty good, she had to admit.

... yep. There's a Gumi watching you.

Gumi didn't go unnoticed, though Derrick hadn't looked up when she stopped by the door. Her surprised melody would get another surprise. A good one, he hoped.

Derrick grabbed a music sheet, placed it on the stand, and started playing this song, knowing that if he waited, he'd lose confidence on playing his surprise to cheer her up. Seeing her sad had been awhile ago, but only now did he really have access to a bass again along with the energy and desire to play it.

Gumi grinned as she started to recognize the notes of the song he was playing. She made her way into the band room, looking around quickly and grabbing a guitar to start playing with him. she set it up about as quickly as she could, then grabbed a seat and moved to sit next to him, joining in when she found a good point to join in at.

It took her a few more notes from there to start singing along with the music.

Derrick looked up when he heard the sounds of things being shuffled around, but he had to quickly return his focus on the song. He couldn't miss notes once he realized what Gumi was doing. Gumi played the guitar? The singing had been expected but not the guitar. Gumi was good, Derrick thought.

A few notes were missed here and there, mostly from nerves, but he played the song to the end.

"Uh... you play guitar?" Maybe a strange question to start with, but it was really the first thing on his mind after trying to play the song well. "... Um. Was practicing that song to cheer you up. You seemed sad... awhile ago."
