New songs ahead***

(Eric's p.o.v)

This woman was gorgeous. I'm glad she was on my bus and not Brantleys.
He'd be having a hay day with her.
She was wearing a tank top and short night shorts. It was the equivalent of men in sweat pants. I was drooling but I paid attention to her life story. She had always wanted to travel and go places. But she settled for the man she loved and became a mother for him.

"But dont get me wrong I would die for my son, I love him""but I wasnt ready". She says about Xavier who continued to sleep. "What do you need, need to make a list of things you and your son need."I say. "I need to find out where my car is now since it was taken to a lot to get fixed". She says. "Ok, I'll call some where tomorrow. But today is a concert so if you want to get off the bus you'll need VIP tags so I also need to call about that". I say to her. She nodded.

She had her wet hair down, brushing it as we talked and it was to her mid back.
Dark brown hair, hazel eyes and dimples. I loved it. I noticed her ears. "Those gauges?". I asked. "Oh yeah I forget their there most of the time". She says laughing. I loved her laugh it was cute. But I couldn't get her involved with me. She didnt need another person to take care of. Well at least someone else to worry about.

"Roosevelt Road was too rough for my old truck
Yeah, she'd shake and she'd shimmy like Elvis singin' "All Shook Up"". I sang. She smiled.

"But you can't blame a boy for going, drive it like you stole it fast
With your window down, brown hair blowin', look at me like that

A turned up radio, but the static was heavy
Couldn't make out any words but "take me to the levee"
That look on your face was full of wild desire
Soakin' my soul in gas and settin' my heart on fire
Heart on fire". I sang quietly. "I like that". She says. "Good I was worried how it would turn out to be nothing but a rhythm" I say.

(Mels p.o.v)

He was such a sweet man but I think the guys were wanting me to feed them. They were talking about home cooking and their moms and wives. They missed home a lot.

I grabbed chicken and pork chops. I was in the store. Eric gave us 400 to spend which I thought was way too much. I got potatoes. I was gonna fix the boys a big dinner.

I went to the clothes for baby boys.
Picked up some sleepers and snacks for on the go. I grabbed 4 sippy cups and a box of diapers and 2 pacifiers. He still had one that was getting old. He was still attached to one.

I grabbed him everything he could possibly need I felt like I grabbed one of everything that could be used for a boy within his age range.

"Ok let's get mommy some clothes too". I say to Xavier. I got a few tank tops, some Jean shorts and a sweatshirt. I grabbed some flip flops. Got Xavier some sneakers as well. Socks and got me some underwear. We had little to nothing it my back pack now or ever.

I went to check out and Xavier picked up a cross necklace. I bought that too thinking maybe it was some sort of sign that this was where I needed to be.
