"Trav! Trav! Feel this!" I exclaim.
"Feel what?" He asks, so I just put his hand over my stomach.
"That. Trav. Do you feel that?" I ask.
"Is that... is that the baby?" He asks smiling like an idiot.
"Yeah. That bump. That's our baby!" I exclaim, tears threatening to fall.
"Oh my God Honey! I'm so happy for you, the baby, everything right now. I love you guys." He says happily while rubbing the bump with his thumb.
"Yeah. I love you too."

•••30 Minutes Later•••

We've just pulled up to the theater where we'll be performing, and oh my God is it intimidating as hell. As the buses come to a stop, I can just see people staring with shocked faces through the windows.

"You do not want to know how many nerves just set in." I tell Travis.
"Hey. It'll be ok. You guys are gonna kill it." He tells me.
"Thank you." I thank letting out a deep breath. "Besides. It's not like we perform today anyway."
"True, true." He replies breathy. "You ready though?" He asks.
"To be honest... I don't know. I mRNA it's state. This is an actual school record." I say with emphasis.
"I know. I know. You're gonna do great am kill it." He reassures.
"Thank you."

Later that night we arrive at the hotel, and head up to our rooms. As soon as Travis and I get into our room, I take a quick 30 minute shower then get ready for bed, because let's be honest, it's been a long ass day hall.

Once I got into bed, Travis looks to me with pure hearts in his eyes and I don't know why. I'm not complaining but I don't know why.

"What?" I giggle out.
"Nothing"
"No. There's something." I say smiling.
"It's just you." He says.
"What about me?" I ask still smiling like an idiot.
"You're gorgeous, having my baby girl, and just the best person ever." He tells me.
"Aaaawww baby. Thank you. That's actually the nicest thing anyone's ever said to me." I tell him.
"Come here baby." He says seeing slight tears sting my eyes. As I move closer to him, he closes me in a hig carful not to crush the baby.
"But baby girl?" I say.
"Yeah why?"
"How would you know?" I giggle.
"I just have this feeling. You know? Father's intuition." He says.
"You dork."
"But I'm your dork."
"Yeah. Yeah. True."
"I love you." He says pressing a soft kiss to my forehead as I begin to drift off.
"I love you too." I say pressing one to the corner of his mouth, finally falling asleep.

I randomly wake up at like 3 a.m. to because that's just what the baby makes me do every 5 minutes. Fun. Anyway, i can't sleep. I know it's a mix of nerves, anxiety, excitement, and competitiveness. But damn, it's getting to me. I have to wake up at 3 in the fucking morning, and I can't get any damned sleep. Fuck this is great.

Like any basic person, I'd like some sleep too you know?

"Babe? You good?" I hear Travis ask.
"I can't fucking sleep. Or get comfortable. Or do shit. This anxiety, nervousness, and competitiveness is getting to my head. On top of that, the baby is make me miserable." I complain.
"Sssshhhhh, baby. It's ok babe. Would it help if we turned on a movie or something?" He suggests.
"I mean you can try it but I don't know if it'll work." I say.
"Mk. What do you want to watch?" He asks tiredly."
"I don't know. What kind of stuff do they have?" I ask.
"Uuummm. Scream 6, Tangled-" I've cut him off.
"Scream 6," I tell him. "That movie always makes me fall asleep, and I don't know why."
"Alright then. Scream it is then." He says turning on the movie.

Within the 1st 20 minutes I'm already getting tired. Thank God they had Scream on this hotel's TV, or I'd be dead-er.

"There you go." I hear Travis coo. The next thing either of us knew, I was asleep and out like a light. Damn it felt great. The baby's finally happy, I'm finally happy, Travis is happier. Life just got better.

Throughout the night, I tossed, turned, stretched. But never once did I wake up once I fell asleep. I never knew how much I needed this sleep until I got it.

I felt great knowing that I was gonna get at least some sleep, considering the fact we'd be waking up at 5 in the morning to compete and get ready. Travis was peacefully dripping his arm around my waist, as I just cuddled against his chest. This felt out of this world amazing!
