Colleen POV

By the end of the show I rush off stage to see Josh. I run into my dressing room and see my Mom siting in the chair beside him making sure he is ok. "How is he?" I ask quietly seeing he is sleeping. "He hasn't thrown up in the last hour and a half" she says. I see Josh slowly wake up and look at me as I sit beside him. "Feeling better?" I ask. He nods and smiles. "Just tired" he says. He sits up slowly as I pass him his Ginger ale and he sips it slowly. "Thanks for taking care of me guys" he says to everyone. I hug him tight and cry into his shoulder. He hugs back. "Don't cry Colleen" he says nuzzling my neck. "I was so angry thinking you were goofing off and you were on the floor in a bathroom. I am such a bitch" I say. "Colleen we are on our last show of a three week tour. We are all exhausted and grouchy babe. Plus I think you are worried about your surgery" he says kissing my neck. I nod holding his hand as I slowly stand up. "Lets go to Macon babe" I say helping him up. We walk out slowly and I get him on the bus. My mom sits with him as I walk back to help Rachel and John. By the end of night my shoulder is done. We walk back onto the bus and Josh looks a million times better. "You look better Josh" I say snuggling beside him. "Much" he says. I grab for my electrode machine to place on my shoulder and ask Josh to put the patches on my back. Once he does that I turn it on. I am extremely sore but I figure I am getting it fixed next week anyways so who cares. Josh looks down at me as he eats soda crackers. "You over did it didnt you?" he asks. "Yup but its ok. Getting it fixed for good next week" I say. The bus ride continues on for a few hours until we reach the rental car place in Atlanta so that Josh and I can go drive and visit his parents for a few days before flying back to LA. We both say goodbye to everyone in the bus including my sis and mom and we grab our luggage and make our way to our car rental and load in our luggage. I go and sit in the drivers seat as Josh is still not 100%. "Are you sure babe?" he says. "Yes" I say smiling. He puts his seat back a bit and holds my right hand as I drive. "Colleen I want to talk to you about something" he says. "Yes babe?" I say as we pull onto the highway. "When are we done touring?" he asks. "We are done now babe" I say. "No I mean for good or at least for a year or two?" he asks. "Joshua, do you really want to start this topic now?" I ask looking at him. "Colleen we need to think about this. We have been married for nearly two years and I want to stay home. I am tired of touring and travelling. We are constantly getting sick. I think it's perfect time to start thinking about having a baby" he says. "Lets talk about this tomorrow" I say as I have no energy to discuss it now.
