"Freddy! I'm here!" you announced gleefully as you entered Alfred's house.

Both of you were neighbours and childhood friends, and your houses were right next to each other's. Alfred had called you over to show you his new electric guitar.

"Aye!" he cheered, pulling you in a tight hug, "Come on upstairs. I'll show you my new girlfriend."

"Are you sure you should be hugging me?" you poked his chest, "You'll make your girl jealous, you know."

He scoffed, "She won't mind, since you're my best friend."

You observed that the house was empty. "Nobody's home?"

"They went out to Home Depot. Dad's been wanting to build a feeding station for the birds." he replied as he went up the stairs.

"Oh yeah, he had been saying something about it before." you nodded, following him, "He sure loves birds, huh?"

He hummed and both of you entered his room. He kept the door ajar and closed the curtains. In the meantime, you looked around and saw no guitar in sight.

"Where's your girlfriend?" you asked as you sat down on his bed.

"She's right here." he said, moving to the closet.

He opened the closet door and there on a stand was a gorgeous and shiny cream coloured electric guitar. You let out a wolf whistle upon seeing it.

"You've snagged yourself a fine girl," you smirked, "She's hot. What's her name?"

"She has no name. But she'd like a suggestion from you." he lifted the guitar up and sat down on the bed with you, positioning the instrument straight on his lap.

"How about..." You thought, "Freedom?" you snickered as soon as the word came out of your mouth.

Alfred took the suggestion seriously when he hummed in deep thought, "How about its synonym: liberty?"

"Liberty is a good one." you nodded approvingly.

"Imma add 'Lady' before it, 'cuz she's royalty." he said.

"I don't think any royalty sports such a humble title." you said, but he just shrugged.

"Say hello to my baby, Lady Liberty." he smiled kissing the body of the guitar.

"Eww, how about you save your kisses for a real girl, huh?" you cringed and laughed.

Alfred huffed, "That's none of your business."

"Hmm," you smiled, "Now, why don't you play something?"

"Any requests?" he asked as he stood up and brought his amp closer and started plugging in the wires.

"That Shawn Mendes song you were practising on your old Jibson guitar. Which one was it?"

"Lost in Japan."

"That's the one." you nodded, watching him bring a stool near the bed, just close in front of you.

He sat down and positioned Liberty on his lap, plucking the strings to see if the tuning was correct. When he was ready, he smiled at you,
