"Alesana. Wake up, darling."
I opened my eyes to CC standing above me. I said, "What?"
"We're back from the studio," he said.
I stretched. "Finally."
"It's only four in the afternoon."
"But you didn't have to take care of Carolyn who was screaming half of the time."
"She's one, love."
"I know but still. It's been worrying me."
"What has?"
"Her constant crying and screaming all the time."
He said, "Maybe her teeth are still coming in. Did you give her the medicine for that?"
I shook my head, "I tried. She pushed it away and kept crying."
"Where is she now?"
"Sleeping in our bed."
He sat next to me and rubbed my leg. I sat up and stretched again. He said, "Sorry I couldn't be here to help."
"Why are you apologizing? Black Veil Brides is your job. You need to get the album together and I understand. I can handle Carolyn."
"But still." He smirked. Then he said, "Would it make you feel better if I..." Then he started tickling me. I laughed and almost fell on the floor. He said, "Whoa!" And kept tickling me. Then I was on the floor and he was over me, tickling me. I said, "Stop stop stop! It hurts!"
"It hurts?"
"Laughing too hard hurts."
He laughed, "Alright."
So he stayed there on top of me. I pulled him down to me by his shirt and kissed him. Then the door opened and CC got up. Then Jake said, "Why is it that you're molesting Alesana on the floor in the open?"
CC laughed and held his hand out. I took it and he helped me up. Then he said to Jake, "It's not like I shoved pizza down my pants like someone in this room whose name rhymes with cake."
Jake hit his arm, "Shut up."
CC laughed and hugged Jake. I hugged Crystal. She smiled, "Hey there."
"I like your hair," I said.
"Who does your hair?" CC said.
"I wanna go there. PSHYEAH." Jake said.
CC chuckled, "Well aren't we weird?"
"Not as weird as when Andy and October sing 'All By Myself'," Jake said.
Then we heard Andy, "Did someone just say 'All By Myself'?!"
Then October came in and Andy and October were singing it. Crystal and I could not control our laughter at all. October came between us, her arms around our shoulders. Crystal put her hand on October's face. October bit Crystal's hand.
"Ow!" Crystal said, "Thanks a lot."
Andy was still singing. I pinched his bare stomach. He slapped my hand away, "Careful there, Mora, I will tell everyone about your embarrassing moment from that long time ago in Ohio."
I felt my cheeks get hot. "Um." I said.
Andy winked, "Don't worry. I wouldn't do that to you."
I slapped his stomach and walked back to CC, who was sitting on the counter. I leaned against him and he wrapped his arms around me. Jake said, "A fan asked us to do something like LMFAO did in 'Sexy and I Know It'."
