Zack POV:

I helped Lucy into the wheelchair again and I wheeled her out to where Jack was waiting in the car. I helped her into the passengers, until she protested. “Zack I wanna sit with you”

“How did you know you weren’t next to him?  Can you see?”

“Yes Jack I have 92 % of my vision.”

“Then what the hell is the stick for then?”

“I’ll lose vision as I get tired and it’s also a precaution the doctor decided I should have one in case”

“Lucy lets go home”

“Please” The drive was mostly quiet as Lucy was snuggled into my side.  I held her close and kissed her head every so often.  Jack drove responsibly but neither Lucy nor I noticed.  We pulled into our driveway.  I helped Lucy from the car. She was quite tired so she stumbled and I handed her the cane.  She took it and tried to look in my direction, while still walking. She didn’t realize there was a step. She tripped and started to fall. She let out a blood curling scream that scared Jack in front of her. He threw out his hands and caught her at the last second.  She hung her head as I ran the rest of the way to her and cradled her on our front walkway.  She cried into my shirt as I rocked her back and forth calming her. Her hands unintentionally fell to her stomach, searching for the boys. She looks down and begins to cry harder. “I’m sorry I’m so messed up”

“Shhhh Lucy, its ok.” I look up to find someone watching from the large bay window of the dining room.  There in the window is Cass holding Sunday sleeping in her arms, face turned away from us.  She looks out at me and I can see her grip on Sunday tighten and a tear roll down her face. She turns away towards the kitchen doorway and Alex comes into view. He looks out the window and then swiftly turns away and disappears.  Cass and Callie tears in both of their eyes closed the curtains, after asking if we were ok. Jack stood in front of me and I look up at him. The tears in his eyes were fighting to roll down his face.  He fought them and blinked trying to hide them. I knew I had tears in my eyes. Watching Lucy so weak was terrible.  The front door burst open and Lucy flinched. I looked over to see Alex with my guitar; and Rian with Sunday’s African drums and a guitar in hand giving it to Jack. I watched as every band member from earlier exuded from our house all silently watching Lucy and I.  Alex broke the silence first, as Rian whispered something to Jack.

“Lucy we are under the influence that you and Zack never had a first dance, and I think now is a great time to change that” She lifted her head and looked towards me.

“How much can you see?” I ask.

“Shadows” As we talked I heard the guys start playing and Alex’s voice interrupted us.

 I wish you could see your face right now,

'Cause you're grinning like a fool.

And we're sitting on your front porch now,

On a Friday afternoon.

It doesn't matter when we get back,

to doing what we do.

'Cause right now could last forever,

Just as long as I'm with you.

“Can I have this dance?” She nods. I help Lucy up and hold her in my arms we rock back and forth on our front lawn surrounded by our friends.

You're just a daydream away;

I wouldn't know what to say if I had you.

And I'll keep you a daydream away,

Just watch from a safe place,

so I never have to lose...

We would go out on the weekend,

to escape our busy lives.

And we'd laugh at all the douche-bag guys,

Chasing down their desperate wives.

I would drink a little too much,

and you'd offer me a ride.

I would offer you a t-shirt,

and you would stay another night...

You're just a daydream away;

I wouldn't know what to say if I had you.

And I'll keep you a daydream away,

Just watch from a safe place,

so I never have to lose...

We never stood a chance out there,

shooting love in real-time.

So we'll take it over ice tonight,

with a little salt,

And a little lime.

You're just a daydream away;

I wouldn't know what to say if I had you.

And I'll keep you a daydream away,

Just watch from a safe place,

so I never have to lose...

You're just a daydream away;

I wouldn't know what to say if I had you.

As the guys ended I look Lucy in the eyes and see her crying with a smile on her face. I lean down and kiss each one of her cheeks. “I love you”

“I love you more” Everyone was clapping I saw Cass watching from the opened window again still holding Sunday. I walk Lucy inside and lead her upstairs.  “Sleep now love, everyone will still be here when you wake” I wait till her breathing evens and then I close the door slowly and walk back downstairs.
