Interviewer: What happened in March of 1977?

Aislinn Loving: So much went on that I was afraid that someone was going to die [the older woman sadly sighs as she looks behind the camera].

March 1977

Like any other night after a concert, the band had decided to have a party on Daisy's bus. While it didn't bother Aislinn to hang out with them, she had grown tired. She knew there was no way she would get any sleep on the bus, but she did know of a place she could rest in, she just didn't know if she wanted to go there.

After telling Eddie where she was going, Aislinn stepped out of the bus and headed towards the other bus. She hesitated to knock on the door but finally gave in as she was too tired. Billy had no idea who was knocking at his door at this hour, at first, he thought it may be Graham, but he was at the party in the other bus, he certainly didn't expect to open the door and see Aislinn.

"Hi." Aislinn spoke as she saw the confused look on Billy. "Hey is everything okay?" Billy asked concern, peeking out the door towards the other bus. "Yeah, everything's fine. It's just I'm tired and the party is getting loud." Aislinn answered, hesitating to ask to stay the night.

"Do you want to stay here?" Billy spoke up, seeing Aislinn hesitant to ask what she was thinking. Aislinn nodded as Billy opened the door more for her to enter the bus.

"Thank you." Aislinn smiled to which Billy nodded. While Aislinn had forgiven Billy since the night she had spoken to Camila, there was a part of her that couldn't help but feel sad over how much time it had all gone on. As she stood in front of Billy, she noticed how awkward things now felt with him. For god's sake he's her older brother, the man she used to see as a father figure growing up and now, she had trouble looking him in the eye?

"How are you feeling? You and the baby." Billy asked, as he sat down on the couch, Aislinn following his lead. "We're fine. Less than two months to go." Aislinn smiled. "I'm glad, I can't wait to meet them." Billy smiled back.

"And everything alright with you and Eddie?" Billy could barely speak out. "We're perfect, he's been wonderful." Aislinn smiled at Billy trying his best to ask about her life.


"Has everything been okay with you?" Aislinn asked, seeing as Billy looked out the window into the night. "Yeah, just trying to stay away from everything." Billy answered as he turned to face Aislinn.
