He turned his head to look around at the tree, curious as to if the sound had been coming from there but when he hadn't heard it again; a slight frown crossed his forehead. You know you're probably going crazy, it was probably just a rock being thrown or something.. Wait, that didn't make any sense! Seriously what the hell was going on? Maybe it was coming from his keyboard, but if it was then his parents clearly hadn't known that it was broken before they owled it to him for his birthday. He ended up lifting the keyboard to his ear to hear if anything was wrong but there wasn't. Huh, that was strange. It seemed like there a new mystery upon the school, only it involved him; though at this point, he much rather have played something that was going to distract him from this nonsense. Setting the keyboard back onto his lap, he pressed a few of the keys to make sure that it was set properly before starting to play the opening few notes to a strictly instrumental song that he'd been working on for the past few weeks.

Literally just having gotten her camera back in her bag, Stella froze as Matt seemed to look around like he'd actually heard something. Probably her taking the picture, but then, oddly, it seemed like he wasn't about to actually look around him entirely. Just at the Willow, and then he actually had lifted his keyboard to his ear like he'd thought it had clicked. That was interesting, only because she knew that she would have looked completely around herself if she'd been in his position. At which point he would have seen her standing there, probably looking stupid with her hand still inside her bag, but instead she got a reprieve. She'd had to stifle a giggle at the keyboard examination, though. She still wasn't sure if she wanted to let him know she was there, and that would have obviously given her away.

As he'd started to play, however, she found herself taking the camera out one more time and clicking another picture of him actually playing. It was way too tempting, but she slid the camera back in her bag afterward. She wasn't going to be able to stay quiet too much longer, but that didn't mean she wanted to deal with explaining that she was using him yet again for a Potions assignment. Even though she knew she was keeping the photos for herself afterward, whether Professor Lafay agreed or not. Stepping forward, she stopped herself a couple feet from where he was sitting before speaking. "That's beautiful." A compliment wouldn't sound too weird, she didn't think. At least, she hoped it wouldn't, or that it wouldn't immediately tell him that she'd been there for a while already. There was already enough to explain, if he asked about the clicking.
