I made my way back to Woody's house. I walked in and seen Luke still here. I guess Woody's was upstairs cause his chair was at the stairs. I carefully closed the door so not wake up Luke.

"You know I'm up, right?" I jumped at his voice.

"You looked sleep. What are you still doing here?"

"Woody said I could stay, just in case he gotta use the bathroom."

"I'm glad you're here, actually." I sat next to him and showed him my Music book.

"I think I'm ready to follow my real dream."

"Makin music?" I hummed nodding.

"What made you change your mind?"

"My Pops." He nodded going through the book.

"Wait, there's this one song, it's old from middle school but I think I can fix it up if you help me." I gave him puppy dog eyes.

"N/n, you ain't gotta give them cute ass puppy dog eyes for me to help you. You know I got you." I hugged him and he hugged back.

"Thank you." I took thr book and showed him the song.

"I'm gonna go change and check on Edward, I'll be back." He nodded looking at the book. I went upstairs and seen Woody's door was open. I peeked in to see him on his phone.

"Your not sleep?" He looked at me and shook his head then looked back at his phone. I got on the edge of the bed next to him and he sat his phone down.

"How you feel?"

"Better now that you're here."

"You gotta use the bathroom?"

"Nah, Luke helped me." He sat up and pulled the cover off. He was wearing some black short with his ashy ass knees out.

"Damn, you maybe paralyzed, but that don't mean you gotta be ashy."

"Shut up."

"Hold on." I walked in his bathroom and grabbed the lotion and came back.

"Since you didn't get your weekly massage this week, I'll massage you myself."

"Mm, sounds good to me." I rolled my eyes putting lotion on my hands. I rubbed it onto his legs massaging it in.

"Feel anything?"

"Yeah, a little."

"Scale 1 to 10."

"About 6."

"That's good, Ed."

"Don't call me that please." He whined.

"Why not?" I chuckled.

"'Cause it remind me of Ed from Good Burger." I luaghed shanking my head.

"So, I've been doing a lot of thinking."

"Uh-oh."

"What?"

"No, continue." I rolled my eyes playfully.

"As I was saying, I'm thinking about going into music."

"What about being a doctor?"

"If I do go into music, you'd be my last patient."

"What about your only patient?"

"Once your fully healed, I won't be takin care of you anymore."

"Damn, that's sucks." I chuckled and started massaging his other leg.

"Anything?"

"About a 7."

"You feel this legs more then the other."

"My right legs is my more dominate leg." I nodded.

"Okay, I see. So you use this more than the other." He nodded. I finished massaging his legs.

"Okay, let's see if you can move this one." I tapped on his left legs.

"I can wiggle my toes." He wiggled his toes and I laughed.

"Does it hurt?"

"Nah, I'm cool."

"Okay the right legs."

"I wiggle my toes and move my foot a bit." He wiggled his toes and moved his foot a bit.

"Don't force yourself." I stopped him and he nodded. Then someone knocked on the door. I turned to see Luke with my book.

"Thought you were sleep, Edward." Luke sat next to him on my side of the bed.

"Don't call me that." Me and Luke chuckled.

"Anyway, so, I was looking over your song insecure, it's really good, needs a little work. Is it about someone?" Luke asked and I nodded.

"Yeah, a guy I dated in middle school."

"Wait, you dated a guy in middle school?"

"Yeah, you don't remember Brandon?"

"The short nigga with the girly ass last name and the glasses?" Woody asked and I chuckled nodded.

"Yeah, he was really insecure about the guys I hung out with."

"I'm the only guy you hung out with."

"Exactly." I smiled and he chuckled.

"Let me see." He took the book from Luke and read it. He hummed every now and then nodding.

"He tryna make himself look professional while reading." Luke whispered to me.

"I know." I whispered back.

"You should make it a duet." Wood gave me the book.

"With who?" Luke coughed clearing his throats and we looked at him.

"You good, man? Over here dying and shit." Woody patted his back.

"Yeah, I'm cool." I gave him a look.

"Luke?" He hummed.

"You wanna make this a duet?"

"Thought you'd never ask." We laughed.
