*Ariel's pov*

I shook pen against the notebook as I tried to write the lyrics further.

Another day, another waste of my heart
It only beats when it wants to
Another step, and I've learned to hold my breath
Still scared to want you

I wrote more and immediately struck it out, why must song writing be this difficult.

My hands are bloody from holding myself too tight

I finally wrote down the line that had been in my mind for a long time, still unable to find a place for it in the song. I started doodling on the side of the page, hoping the random designs would provide some inspiration. Sadly, no such luck.

I moved my head to a tune only I could hear till my phone made a sound, it was a text which I opened to find out it was from Andy. Outside, waiting :) it said. I smiled, closed my notebook and hid it under the couch and got up picking my phone.

Andy and I had decided to get breakfast together, this morning. Shawn teased me saying it was a date. I didn't know if it was or not, even if it was, I wouldn't really mind.

I went out of the bus, hit by the bright sunlight. I saw Andy standing at some distance, as soon as he saw me he smiled. Sometimes I forget how attractive he really is.

"Good morning, Andy." I said reaching him.

"Good morning, pixie." He said smiling down at me.

"What did you call me?" I looked up at him, genuinely curious. Doubting if I sounded too rude.

He tilted his head a bit, "Pixie." he said. And nothing more, looking directly into my eyes. I could do nothing but nod. I just stared at him for a while and he stared back.

"So breakfast?" Andy asked me, breaking the silence.

I got out of my weird daze. "Yeah, sure. Let's go." We walked up to the nearest place to get breakfast and walked back eating it and talking. We met up CC and Ashley on our way back and started talking, about the weather, the bands playing today and such stuff.

"So Ariel, what are your plan for today?" Ashley asked me.

"Oh Andy was actually coming over to our bus today to hang out." I looked at Andy who nodded.

"Huh and we were not invited!" CC said in a dramatic tone like he was offended. I looked at Andy again, wondering if they should be invited but he just surprisingly put an arm around me and said to CC "Guess next time bud." His arm around me felt just right.

"Ah well, have your singers party then. We'll get more food right, Ashley?"

"Damn right." Ashley said tipping the hat he was wearing.

My phone rang and I checked it to see it was a call from Shawn, we had to work on the plan for the next show in two days, I quickly talked to him and hung up the phone, bit sad that I would have to leave now.

"Well so I would have to go now, final changes for the next show." I said to them.

"Aww alright, see you around then." Ashley said, I reluctantly moved away from Andy who didn't seem very happy to let go. I waved bye to all of them and headed to meet Shawn.

On my way I got a text from Andy

Plan's still on? :)

I smiled and typed

Yep :)

And worked for our show till evening.
