Claire and Seth had told all the guys about her being pregnant. They all congratulated them and then turned to Andy and I.

"You're next." Ashley winked and I rolled my eyes.

I rolled over in bed two weeks later. Andy had went to the studio to do some work.

He was working on this solo project, Andy Black. I had listened to him while he wrote lyrics to a song called Ribcage. He showed me a few others like, They Don't Need to Understand, and We Don't Have to Dance. Ribcage stood out though.

Our band was doing okay, Shady and I were up late scribbling in notebooks and jotting down lyrics. I was stumped. I never wrote songs.

I rubbed the sleep from my eyes as I grabbed my phone. Five messages and two missed calls.

I read the messages.

Andythehottie: I miss you.

Andythehottie: You sleep a lot woman.

I laughed at that last one.

Me: Yes I do sleep a lot.

Slim Shady: Gurl, I am so tired!

Me: Me too!

Ashleythepurdy: Would you text your boyfriend?

CCtheunicorn: MONSTER ENERGY IS HELPFUL IN THE MORNING! GO DRINK SOME!

I checked my calls. One was from Andy and one was from Jake.

My phone buzzed.

Andythehottie: You're awake!

Me: No, I'm sleep texting.

Andythehottie: that's Sexting! Lol

Me: I'm not Sexting you.

Andythehottie: Close enough.

Ashleythepurdy: You're Sexting Andy? Gross!

I decided to call him.

"Hey babe!" He said answering.

"Hi." I said my voice raspy from sleep.

"She better not be Making sounds into that phone!" I heard Ashley.

"I'm not Sexting Andy." I said knowing I was on speaker.

"Sure." I heard Jinxx.

"You're supposed to be civil." I said.

"I'll see you when you get home Andy. Love you!"

"Love you too!"

I hung up and laid back down. I fell asleep again.

I felt the bed dip and I knew Andy was home. I rolled over and leaned into him.

"Hello." I yawned.

"Hey. It's like five in the afternoon." Andy said wrapping his arms around me.

"I slept for, fifteen hours." I said. "I need three more hours."

Andy laughed and kissed my forehead. I kissed his cheek and settled back down.

"So, I jotted down some lyrics for a new song." Andy said.

"Let's here it." We were in the music room.

"Your thoughts become your enemies, when you're locked inside this cage.

Life can feel dead to me, and all that's left is rage.
