Erin continued to be in a few scenes until the end of the season. Lorne told her she would be a featured cast member starting the next season. There was a party after the last show on the roof. Erin found it hard to find a non-alcoholic beverage. She and Andy were hanging out looking at the view.

'I've never been to a roof party before.' Erin said.

'It's pretty awesome up here, looking out over New York City.' Andy replied.

'I'm going to miss working over the summer.' Erin said.

'Maybe you could write movies. I could talk to Jorm and Akiva to see if we're doing anything.' Andy said. 'We'd love to have you help us.'

'That would be awesome.' Erin said. 'What are you doing this summer? Any movies?'

'Yeah, I've looked at a few but I'm not sure.' He replied. There was a long pause as they both watched the traffic below.

'I'm going to miss you.' Andy said.

'Oh, um, I'll miss you to.' Erin replied.

'I don't know if it's because I've had too much to drink, but I'm really going to miss you.' Andy said as he turned to face her and leaned in, as if to kiss her, but stopped. Erin looked into his eyes for a minute, then leaned in and kissed him.

Erin spent the night at Andy's house; it was 3:00 in the morning by the time the party ended. Erin drove Andy home, since he had indeed had a bit too much to drink. The next morning Andy woke up and walked into the kitchen. He found Erin standing at the counter, she turned around energetically and said, 'I'm making waffles!'

'Oh, awesome.' Andy said. 'Listen, about last night,'

'It's okay, you were drunk.' Erin interrupted. 

'Yeah, but you weren't and you kissed me back.' Andy said and bit his lips as he watched her.

'Oh, I was hoping you wouldn't have noticed that.' Erin said, blushing a little. 

'I meant what I said, I'm going to miss you: your laugh, your style, your hair, your eyes, your weird jokes. Erin, I think what I'm trying to say is that I like you. I don't know what that kiss meant, I don't know if you feel the same way.'

Erin thought about what Andy said for a few moments, then said, 'I like you too. I'd never really thought about it, but last night I realized how much I needed you. I would be so lost without you Andy.'

'Thank you.' Andy said smiling. 'I think your waffles are burning.'

Erin and Andy became a couple and the rest of the summer they did everything together. If Andy was in a movie, Erin was one of the writers. If Andy did something with The Lonely Island, she tagged along. 

In July she was accepted to a private school for performers. It was for musicians, actors, dancers, and other people with different schedules. Erin would now be living in New York. In late August, Erin and Andy were invited to a baby shower for Martha.

Bill and Erin had not talked for a while, and he didn't know that she was seeing Andy. She and Andy arrived together and sat together. That didn't bother Bill, since they were friends. But when he saw them kiss, he knew they were more than just friends.

'I see you guys are dating now.' Bill said quietly.

'Yes, that isn't going to be awkward, is it?' Erin asked.

'No, of course not.' Bill replied with a smile that failed to hide his lingering feelings for Erin. 

'Do you know if it's a boy or girl yet?' Andy asked.
