Regina had asked Madison to pick up Henry since she was running late. Though Madison didn't mind at all since she did care for Henry. It was just she had to get to practice. To take him there would be her head. Madison said down on the bench and waited. She could hear Mary telling them what their homework was. She smiled knowing Henry was going to ask for help.

Henry listened to the homework assignment and wrote it down. He really needed help. A quick jot down to ask Madison was in order. Thank God the bell rang.
The boy happily fast-walked out of the room and outside. He was surprised to see his aunt out there. "Maddie!" he called, waving at her.

Madison stood up and waited for him. "Hey there kiddo. Looks like Mother Dearest couldn't come again. How was school?" Madison liked to strike a nerve in Regina and call her mother. Since, she was acting like her.

"It's okay, she's always busy," Henry shrugged. Not that he wanted to go home with Regina, anyway. At least Madison was nicer. "School was okay. I got homework, though... How was your day?"

Before Madison could answer however, a male's voice called out "Hey there! Henry! Hold up!" It was a voice with a smooth British accent. Most at Storybrooke K-12 knew him simply as Mr Piper-the Band Teacher.
Many of the faculty actually jokingly called him 'The Pied Piper'. Any kid who had him seemed to adore him. What kid wouldn't? He had a pet rat!

Madison was about to answer Henry, but was interrupted by the nice British fellow she met the other day. She didn't want to tell him horrible. Her and Regina did nothing, but argue. "Hey Mister Piper!" She waved.

"Ah, Miss...Maddie Mills" he greeted pleasently. "It's good to see that you're the one picking young Henry." He then ruffled the boy's hair. "Can I speak to you a moment, Henry?"

Henry turned to see the band teacher, whose nickname among the students actually was more true than they thought. "Hi, Mr. Piper," he greeted. "Really?" He looked over at Maddie real quick, silently saying that he'd be right back. "Sure, Mr. Piper. What's up?"

"Henry, have you ever thought about joining the school band?" Oliver asked the young boy. Yes, he knew getting Henry involved in music was...risky. However, if Oliver could show Madame Mayor that music wasn't ALL the stuff played at Fred's club, the school teacher would have a finacial ally (very loosely termed) against the constant funding cuts the principal always seemed to dish out in the fine arts direction.
And perhaps...just perhaps, he could help Maddison out too...

The boy's eyes widened in surprise. "Me?" This was certainly something he didn't expect. In fact, he was so excited that he could hardly contain it. "I'd love to! But..." Henry glanced to the ground. "I don't know how to play any instruments that well, Mr. Piper..."

Oliver mussed Henry's hair as he chuckled.
"That's where I would come in, lad" he told the boy. "We'll find the right-fitting instrument for you. And then I'll give you private lessons before there's even a thought of placing you in the band with the rest, hmm?" Mr. Piper then knelt to the boy's height. "And because I want you in the group, Henry if you come by the Community Center after school for extra lessons, I won't ask for anything in return from your mum, deal?"

Madison watched from her seat smiling. She was so glad that Henry would learn some music. She knew Regina was going to have a fit too. Oh well, she would make sure Henry got there.

The thought of being in the band kept swimming around in Henry's head. It would be amazing if he was in the band! He'd have some new friends, and he'd be good at something. And Mr. Piper had even offered lessons!
"Deal!" the ten-year-old answered with a wide grin, shaking the band teacher's hand.

"Great!" Oliver declared. He then chuckled. "Did you have a thought at all as to what you would like to play?" he asked then. "If not, it's okay. We can figure that out then tomorrow before school."
