2 weeks later:

I sat in the kitchen with my camera and checked my Billboard photos. The magazine would be out this week and I needed to make sure everything was ready. Colson has been in his downstairs studio all day with Travis and Rook as they worked on finishing the album. Tour starts in February so he's pressed for time. I put some filters on the pictures and cropped out somethings that weren't needed.

"Hey Luna".

I turned to see Travis walking in from the studio.

"Hey you. Did you get anything else done"? I asked.

He grabbed a beer from the fridge and opened it, walking over.

"Yeah, we're remaking some of his old songs and adding some other songs he made recently". He said and looked at the laptop.

"Oh sweet, is that the Billboard thing"? He asked.

I turned back to the laptop and smiled.

I turned back to the laptop and smiled

"Yes, these are my favorite". I smiled and clicked through.

Travis laughed. "He's very comfortable". He said pointing to the one.

"That and with animal print"

"That and with animal print". I said and hit save. "I love it".

Colson now walked into the kitchen. His hair was getting longer again, it's like it had a life of its own. He came over to me and gave me a kiss.

"What's going on"? He asked and turned to Travis.

"Nothing. She showed me the Billboard pictures". Travis said and Colson looked at the laptop, nodding to himself.

"I like that one". He smirked.

He seemed high. Like really high.

"Alright, let's go". Travis said and walked off.

Colson stayed behind me, wrapping his arms around me. Brining his hands up to cup my breasts.

"Colson". I sighed and he chuckled.

"What, I can't hug my wife"?

I giggled and turned to him. "You can. Just not like that when you have guests".

He sighed. "Fine". He smirked and gave me a kiss. His hand trailing down the front of me and stopped between my legs.

"You don't know how bad I wanna take you right here". He whispered.

I pushed him back lightly and he smirked. "Maybe when they leave, if you're good". I said.

He nodded and connected our lips again before taking his lighter off the table next to me and pulled away.

"You said it. I'll be good". He said and pointed at me, walking backwards down the hall to the studio.

I walked into the studio room as they finished the last of the stuff. Colson stays behind the glass, smoking his joint and putting hair hair up with one of my clips. I sat down next to Rook as he practiced on his smaller drumset.

"Okay, what about if I add that one verse"? Colson asked.

"You could, but it would jump around. You can try it".

I watched my husband work with Travis and the band yesterday and the day before that. It's been a while since he's actually sat down with the guys and did it. It was his happy place. I wanted nothing more then for him to get back into it.

After the verse Colson groaned into the microphone. "No, I don't like that".

Travis shut the mic off as he turned to Rook. "I liked it, didn't you"? He asked.

"Kells is a perfectionist. Give it time". Rook sighed and stood up. "We need kid here".

"Kid"? I asked.

"Kid Laroi. Some nineteen year old he found". Rook answered.

I nodded and stood up, walking back to the microphone. I turned it back on as he rapped.

"Wait, that was a lie
Because I cannot erase you like eternal sunshine in a spotless mind
Red in the eyes, lately I've been on a cocaine diet, I've been trying to feed my high".

I turned to Travis as he put his hand up. "Its not about you or him doing drugs". He corrected.

"Alright man, show Luna the other song'. Rook said into the microphone.

Colson nodded and took another hit of his joint.

"Kid rock will be with him on this one". Rook smiled as we all stood up, listening to the soundtrack.

"Is he making the rap album"? I asked and Rook shrugged.

"He said he wanted to, were getting feature ones done first". Travis answered.

After sitting there for a few minutes I walked back to the door.

"Okay, I need to run out. I got to drop these photos off downtown. Can you make sure he's ready for dinner tonight?" I asked and grabbed my bag.

"Dinner"? Rook asked.

I sighed and stopped at the door.

"Dinner yes. Colson and I had this planned as a celebration". I said.

Rook looked at Travis and shrugged.

"We gotta finish this".

I rolled my eyes amd walked back over to the two of them.

"If I'm not greeted with my husband when I get home in time for dinner I'm going to flip a top. Do you understand me. He has an hour"?

Rook looked down and nodded as Travis turned back to Colson. I looked up and seen him already staring at me. I walked out of the room and over to the front door.

"Luna"! Colson yelled.

I stopped when my hand held the handle. I turned to him as he held his arms up. "I'll be there".

I nodded and got into the car, driving off quickly.

I dropped the picture drive in Josh's office downtown and decided to stop at the drugstore to pick up cigarettes for Colson. I wasn't sure what I was doing. I guess I'm giving him a bit more time to finish and get ready. Its been over an hour. I hated being that girl to him, but he did promise me.

I walked down the isle and stopped when I seen the pregnancy tests. I looked around to make sure paparazzi weren't around me and put them in the basket, quickly walking to the front. I've been feeling weird so why not?

Once I checked out I walked to the car and got in, connecting my phone so I can call him.

"Angel"?

"I grabbed you cigarettes". I said and drove from the parking lot.

"You didn't need to". He said and in the background I could hear the music.

"Im almost done, promise". He said.

I shrugged. "Its fine. I'll be home after I see alex". I said and hung up, throwing the phone on the seat next to me.

I knew this was going to happen.
