The next morning after everyone had one hell of a night they were woken up by the piano in the music room playing. When they don't see Alex in the living room they all know it had to be her. Just then her beautiful, angelic voice was heard. Smiling everyone got up and headed to the music room. Sneaking in they all quietly sat on the couch to watch. She hadn't noticed they were there seeing as her eyes were closed as she played the piano and sang. They also couldn't help but notice she was only wearing one of their t-shirts.

I need the kinda love that can outlast the night
I need the kinda love that is willing to fight

When the going gets tough
And my strength's not enough
I see You showing up like never before
This battle for my heart
You took on from the start
You are the peace when my mind's at war
And oh...

You will never stop fighting for me
When I can't fight for myself
Every word is a promise You keep
Cause You love me like nobody else
You stand up for me in the darkest night
When my faith is weak You're still by my side
You will never stop fighting for me
You will never stop fighting for me

In the perfect timing You make all things right
You paint a silver lining in this heart of mine

When the going gets tough
And my strength's not enough
I see You showing up like never before
This battle for my heart
You took on from the start
You are the peace when my mind's at war
And oh...

You will never stop fighting for me
When I can't fight for myself
Every word is a promise You keep
Cause You love me like nobody else
You stand up for me in the darkest night
When my faith is weak You're still by my side
You will never stop fighting for me
You will never stop fighting for me

Your love
Is winning me over
Your heart
Is pulling me closer
Your love
Is winning me over
Your heart
Is pulling me closer

You will never stop
Fighting for me, fighting for me
Every word is a promise You keep
Oh...

You will never stop fighting for me
When I can't fight for myself
Every word is a promise You keep
Cause You love me like nobody else
You stand up for me in the darkest night
When my faith is weak You're still by my side
You will never stop fighting for me
You will never stop fighting for me


Alex took a breath and opened her eyes just to be shocked seeing as everyone was up and watching her.

"Good morning, Did I wake y'all?" Alex asks 

"No, Babygirl, you didn't," Mal says smiling. 

"Oh, what time do we have to go to the airport?" Alex asks standing up and heading over to the couch where everyone is sitting. She takes a seat on Carter's lap making him smile as he kisses her head.

"We've got time," Carter tells her. She nods and leans back into him.
