Ben had stopped into town that morning as the band was driving through to get to a gig they had in Chicago in two days. A few hours with his family wasn't going to ruin the tour schedule, and he'd just catch a flight in the morning and meet the buses in Chicago the next afternoon when they got there.

Sam had been the only one home when Ben knocked on the door, and mentioned he was actually about to leave to pick Olivia up from rehearsal. Ben offered to get her as a surprise, which was why he was strolling through the high school with his sunglasses on, looking for the space his cousin was hiding in.

When he found the music room, he saw a very hot woman behind a desk and smirked a bit before knocking on the door frame. "Hey, I was wondering if you could help me?"

She gave him a bit of a smile. That was it. He was the spitting image of Olivia's uncle, before pointing to the small hallway that connected the two rehearsal rooms. "She is probably in the one on your right."
