The Munson Trailer

Authors Narrative

Eddie and Rowan were in the bedroom, making out, when the phone started to ring. Neither wanted to leave each others touch, but, knowing that there's a chance it's their record label, Eddie had to get up, leaving Rowan to try and not to fall asleep.

"Hello?" He said into the phone.

"Hello, Mr. Munson? It's Pascal, from Golden Records; we have made a decision." Eddie thought he was dreaming at the next words coming out of his mouth.

He was pretty sure he was saying words and planning things, but he couldn't be sure, hell, he wasn't sure if he was awake right now.

"So? Who was it?" Rowan asks, walking into the kitchen to see Eddie staring at the wall with a mouth wide open.

"We have a deal, we have a record label!" Eddie exclaims, immediately pulling Rowan into a bone-crushing hug, barely hearing her congratulations and such, too lost in everything that just happened.

"W-we have to call the guys!" Rowan says as he finally lets go of her.

And the rest of the day was spent with the guys at Golden Records, planning a future album, recording some songs they already have, and sending them to get approved and sent into the world.

Wow, this was the life Eddie always knew Rowan deserves, a life with pretty things she wants, a big house, a man who can take care of her needs and wants; what he's always wanted to do for her.

And Rowan knew Eddie and the boys deserved this more than anyone, they've worked their asses off for years. Playing at the hideout, practicing in Garth's garage anytime they could, writing new songs like it was nothing. They deserved this more than anything.

While the boys were at Golden Records until 3 AM, writing, recording, playing, and such, Rowan was at her moms, going over all the baby clothes she has, the toys, and playing and talking to babe and dude.

They also went over baby names, girls and boys since they didn't know the gender yet. Actually, Eddie was planning a surprise baby shower, after the gender reveal, since she didn't want one. But, Eddie wanted that for her, even though he knows being in the spotlight isn't her favorite thing, he knows she'll want those memories, the things that they don't have to buy, and the fun games obviously.

They got for a girl; Sage, storm, Willow, Cora, Sadie, and Olive. Rowan's just always that olive was an adorable name for a little baby girl.

And for a boy; Axel, Oliver, James, Blaze, Finn, and Otto. If she couldn't have olive, she'll take Oliver.

Anyway, at around 1:35 AM Mrs. Henderson got too tired to wait up, so she went to bed. Oh, you though Rowan was still up, god no! Lol, she went to be 3 hours ago, Claudia was just waiting in case Eddie came and needed to open the door. Dot was not a night bird, the little baby wants to sleep at 7: 30 PM and needs food at 2 AM, it's very fun being pregnant.

Eddie dropped the guys off and, since he was the one who dropped Rowan off at her moms, he knew she would be asleep, cuddled up to babe or a pillow.

And she was, until she heard a loud bang come from the front door. Since her mom had just fallen asleep, Rowan knew she wouldn't wake up.

Bang, bang

It's like whoever was at the door was trying to break it down, the scary thing is, they were. But Rowan didn't know that as she got up and out of bed, grunting and waddling with her big bump.

Her pregnancy brain, let alone the fact she just woke up, wasn't alerting her how hard they were banging on the door. But, babe and dude could tell, so babe helped dude out of his cage and followed their mama into grave danger.

"I'm comin, I'm comin" she sighs, babe and dude hot on her heels.

"Babe, dude shhh, god" she rolls her eyes, not at all understanding that they were protecting her and trying to tell her to stop.

And they won't attack unless told to do so, so they're just going to stay as close as possible to her.

"Who is it?" She yells in front of the door.

"Girl scouts" an extremely high pitched voice says, also sounding... British?

"What the fuck, at this time of... day?" She whispers to herself looking at the clock to see its 3 AM. Then she chuckles to herself.

"Teddy?" She laughs, soon realizing this is not something to laugh at as the chain on the door starts to rattle, until it suddenly snaps, falling to the ground.

"What the.." Then the lock starts to turn, making Rowan turn and run, before she runs into the kitchen to grab a knife. Just to see every single possible weapon gone.

"Not even spoons!" She whisper- shouts.

"Babe, dude, my babies, I need you to go in grandmas room, okay? Stay in there for me, no matter what you hear understand?" She squats in front of them, making sure they understand.

The pregnant woman could tell the dogs were about to argue, but were interrupted by the doorknob falling off.

"Go." This makes them run to her moms room, not to leave until allowed to do so.

Rowan immediately ran to her room, closing and not even bothering locking it, that was until she heard the front door be knocked down, and ran to her closet. She searched high and low as she heard heavy footsteps coming toward her room, finally finding her handgun and pocket knife.

She picked up her room phone, dialing Eddie's number, no answer, the record building, no answer, and Eddie's one more time.

"Come on Eddie, come on," she impatiently sighed, only hearing the voicemail box.

He can't help you.

A loud, nerve racking voice echoed inside her head. She pointed the gun to the door, flipping the knife out and getting ready.

No one can, and neither can that.

The voice laughed, mocking her with whimpers. Then, the steps and the voice stopped, the only thing you could hear was Rowan's fast breathing and her heartbeat drumming in her rib cage.

Rowan.

"Stop." She whispers.

Rowan

"Stop!" She shouts.

Rowan!

"No!" She screams.

Rowan!

The voice yells, waking her up.

She sits up with a gasp, empty handed, babe and dude both cuddling her, and Eddie holding her face in his hands.

Babe was laying atop her thighs and dude was cuddling into her left side, with Eddie and her mom on her right.

"Baby, what happened, are you okay? You were screaming and-" Eddie frantically speaks, eyes screaming for assurance that she's okay.

"I-I'm okay, I'm okay, baby" she grabs his face too as he digs it into her chest.

He sniffs, shaking his body, as she runs her fingers through his hair. He thought he wasn't going to be able to wake her up.

They were both terrified, and for good reasons.

I'll be back

She closed her eyes, taking a deep breath and holding his head closer, looking up at her mom and smiling weakly. She could see the fear in her moms eyes, but Rowan didn't know her mom heard every word that came from her daughters mouth, every scream, word, and yell, she heard.

I'm okay, she mouthed go Claudia.

But she was the farthest thing from it.
