How am I not surprised? I pull the hood of my Washington State sweater over my head and zip my leather jacket up. I walk up to Andy who sits behind the Hollywood sigh, slumped in her dress. I wrap CC's jacket around her shoulders as I sit down beside her.

"Where are your children?" She wonders.

"With their father." I say. "Honey, what's going on?"

"Lissa I'm scared. I'm pregnant and about to get married to a rockstar. My family is so messed up its crazy and--" Andy trails off and I smile.

"So this is what it sounds like." I say and she looks over to me.

"What the hell are you talking about?" She wonders.

"I just feel like I was having a similar conversation with you about a year ago." I say and she smiles.

"How do you do it?" Andy asks.

"Do what?" I wonder.

"Be a great mom and wife but still have time to be the most crazy, fearless broad I've ever met!" She tells me and I shake my head.

"Fearless?" I wonder.

"Yes, fearless." Andy tells me and I laugh.

"Hell no! I'm scared all the time. I'm scared that I'm not being a good mom and wife. I'm scared when the babies don't wake up like clockwork. I'm alway scared that I'm pissing my mom off in heaven. I'm not even close to being fearless." I explain. "I'll even prove it to you."

I stand up and walk to the rail. I look over the beautiful city.

"Hey LA!" I yell. "I'm Alyssa Rockett and I'm scared of screwing up my kids!"

"Alyssa!" Andy hisses.

"Come on. Tackling kills anger and yelling cures fear. I swear." I pull her up beside me.

"I'm Andrea Cortez and I'm scared of being a wife and a mom!" She yells and I smile.

"See?" I wonder and she nods. "Now, where we come from it's a sin to run out on a perfectly good cake."

"Do me one favour?" Andy wonders.

"Of course." I smile.

"Say beer." She smiles.

"Beeya." I smirk and she laughs.

"Let's go." Andy smiles.

Now who's fearless?
