I apologize if it seems short
*Ashley POV*
I got up a while ago once Anubis had gone to sleep waiting for any sign of Andy. I currently leaned on the door frame of our bunk and watched Anubis as she slept. I saw the forming bruises on her arms and face. I winced and cursed myself as my heart broke at the sight of them. I should have known Eva was going to try something I chided myself.
I was beyond pissed. Pissed at Eva and Andy. Yea this wasn't Andy's fault but he had let Eva get way out of control. Who wouldn't very pissed, if their pregnant wife had been wailed on by a supposedly trusted friend, or anyone in general. I watched as Anubis tossed and turned, mumbling under her breath as she held her stomach protectively. She was having another nightmare and it pained me to see her like this, I felt useless.
All the sudden the bus door flew open and in came Andy, panting as he ran towards the back of the bus towards us.
"You" I said as I narrowed my eye as I stepped in front of him, stopping him from going to see Anubis.
"What? What did I do? Is Anubis ok? " Andy asked panicking
"So you knew what Eva was planning and you let her do it? " I asked now extremely pissed. Andy looked at me confused.
"No, no I would never, ever let Eva hurt Anubis especially when she's pregnant. I only found out because Eva just told me what she did, why would you ever think that? " Andy asked, starting to get pissed.
"Oh I don't know, maybe because your cheating ass girlfriend just assaulted my wife" I growled
"Well it wasn't me. Anubis is my fucking friend, I would never do anything to hurt her and Eva and I are done" Andy said defensively
"I'm warning you, you better not be lying because if I find out that you aren't going to like it, I'm keeping my eye on you" I growled
"Go ahead, I have nothing to hide and I'm not intimidated at all. You can't keep me from my friend"
"Why would you think I would keep her from you? " I asked suspiciously "I didn't say that
" Just a feeling " Andy said quickly, his eyes widening. Something was definitely up
"Sure" I said as I glared at him "she's fine minus the bruises Eva gave her. She's sleeping now "
"Woah tension much,What's gotten into the two of you? " Jake asked as he walked in. We both glanced up at him
"Eva beat Anubis" I said "it wasn't super bad but their are bruises on her. I just walked in to see Eva wailing on Anubis who was on the ground"
"Oh my god, is she ok? " Jake asked as his eyes widening
"She's fine she's sleeping right now" I said.
"Why would Eva did something like that? " Jake asked defensively before looking at Andy
"Hey don't look at me, I have no idea why Eva would do something like that" Andy said
"Well she did accuse you and Anubis of cheating. Any ideas? " I asked as I looked at Andy.
"No fucking idea I would never ever cheat and neither would Anubis" Andy said
"We all just need to relax. Where is Eva now? " Jake asked.
"She was yelling at Juniper when we went out for our walk. I swear that was the last time i saw her before juniper told me to run over here and see if Anubis was ok" Andy said . Ake nodded and ran out before Andy and I were locked in a staring contest. With once last glance I turned around and leaned on the door frame again watching Anubis as she slept, clutching a pillow to her chest
*Anubis POV*
I woke up with nervous chatter in the front of the bus. I looked over at the alarm which read ten twenty am. How long was I out?
Getting up and not bothering to change I walked to the front of the bus, rubbing my eye. Everyone was in the front and they quieted when I walked in
"Vhat are you guys talking about? " I asked curiously.
"Eva is dead" Alex said solemnly as she looked at me. That stopped me in my tracks, yes I hated Eva for what she did, but her death still came as a shock to me
"Vhat do you mean she's dead? Vhen did this happen? Vhat happened? " I asked curiously
"It happened last night after she attacked you... She came after me. I pushed her back when she went to attack me before she stepped on a unsafe bridge. The bridge snapped and she fell to her death" Juniper said.
"In all honesty I think that she did deserve it in a way. She was being bitchy and rude and did attack you" Alex pointed out "both of you. It was self defense after all, you didn't know the bridge was going to break"
"I talked to her mom a while ago. I know she wants to have a funeral a few months from know" Andy said.
"We would most likely be on your then" Jake said
"I don't know if I vould be able to make it.... Or if I even vant to go" I said as tears lined my eyes.
"You don't have to if you don't want to" Ashley said reassuringly. As he hugged me. That's when his burner phone rang and he answered walking to the back of the bus. I Sat on the couch as the room got silent. Then my phone buzzed and I looked down.
Taylor S: hey, I don't know if you remember me or not but it's Taylor. I ran into you at the store and you gave me your number
Me: I remember. How have you been?
Taylor S: I've been good, a bit busy. I'm actually at warped Tour right now, I'm hoping to see you guys play today
Me: sweet. Do you want to come to the bus and start the rock star experience for the last week? seeing I can't go anywhere after this
Taylor S: of course. Where are you?
Me: I'll come and find you. Where are you right now?
Taylor S: I'm by the Sleeping With Sirens signing tent
Me: hold on, I'll be there in a minute
I put my phone down and tried to get up but failed.
"Can someone help me up please? " I asked. Aries grabbed my arm and pulled me up. I smiles. "Thanks Aries, I vas vorried that I vasnt going to be able to get up"
"I know the feeling I didn't want to get out of bed this morning" Aries said
"That's me every day. Alright I vill be back in a few, peace out suckers" I said
"Are you sure? I mean Samson is still out there and you're pregnant, don't you need someone with you? " Andy asked
"Andy I'll be fine OK. Samson vont be able to lay a hand on me. Besides I'm going to see Taylor vho is only around the corner" I said as I got up "it isn't the end of the vorld. And there are thousands of people here, if anything happened to me one of them vould do something"
"You aren't going anywhere without me" Ashley said as he walked back out, putting his phone up "Samson knows you're here, your dad's trying to figures out how to stop him he told me not to let you out of my sight so wherever you're going I'm taking you"
" Vell I'm going to sleeping with sirens signing tent" I said
"Meet up for lunch" Alex suggested.
"Sure" I said as I grabbed Ashley's hand and we walked out of the bus and walked through the crowd. Ashley held my hand tightly as he kept close to me, his eyes carefully scanning the crowd.
"Ash, just try to relax, you're looking to hard" I said.
"I'm just trying to keep you safe" Ashley said as he looked at me.
" I know"I said "but like I said before, im vith you so I know I'm always safe"
"I try to keep you safe as much as possible" He said as he smiled. My heart skipped a beat
"You know I love it vhen you smile, it makes me happy. I feel giddy and content" I said
"Maybe I should smile more often" He said
"You always smile" I said laughing as I lightly nudged him. He just laughed. Finally we got to the empty tent and Taylor stood there, biting her lip and looking awkward as her eyes scanned the crowd. She wore a large over sized sweater and a pair of faded blue shorts. Her blond hair was pulled into a pony tail.
"Hey Taylor" I said as we stood next to her. Recovering from her small scare she looked at me and smiled,
"Hey. I have to say that I've never felt more out of place on my life" Taylor said laughing before her eyes widened "oh my god look at you. You're having kids, that's amazing"
"Thanks" I said chuckling " How long have you been here?"
"For at least an hour. I've just been walking around" She said. I laughed
"That's always fun vhen you have no idea vhat the hell you are doing" I said
"No kidding. I mean the lay up is pretty much the same like some of the music shows and stuff"
"Ahhhhh"
"So what are we doing today? " Taylor asked as she but her lip
"Vell ve do have to get you ready for your veek performance. Ve can get you fake tattoos vith a real tattoo gun, maybe bye your hair temporarily of course. Ve vould have to get you caught up on the music.... Unless you already know it" I said. She nodded
"That's fine. I already know the music, I'm just sort of worried about the hair dye and tattoo part" She answered.
"Relax. You get to decide vhat you vant. Besides Ashley vill do it, I'm sure he doesn't mind. " I said as I looked at Ashley
"I don't mind at all" Ashley said shrugging. I looked back at Taylor who just nodded sheepishly.
"Alright. let's get this party started shall ve? " I asked. Taylor nodded as we headed back to the bus, only finding it empty. While Ashley was gone to get the tattoo equipment, Taylor and I talked about how she wanted her hair and tattoo ideas and where she wanted them. And while Ashley was gone we started in her hair, me luckily finding a velvet purple color hair dye in my bag for her.
Taylor just absent mindedly looked at other tattoos on google to see if she could get anymore ideas. Some of the guys and girls ended up stopping bye, completely stunned to see Taylor here at all mainly because.... Well you know I didn't get along with pop artists that well. Ashley had come in shortly behind them, tattoo stuff in hands, as I finished up on her hair. Her long once blond hair had faded into a vibrant purple and had been curled.
I watched as Taylor got her tattoos, wincing as tattoo gun passed over sensitive areas on her body. She got a beautiful tribal design on her left forearm down, a compass with a large feather dripping with color on her right forearm, a bird who's wings and body made of staves and music notes on her left shoulder, a heart with a bass clef trebel clef and the words on her shoulder, and a large boat wheel that said be the one to guide me on the front of her right thigh.
"Thanks again" Taylor said as she hissed in pain as Ashley wrapped up her tattoos.
"It's not a problem. Just be careful so you don't do anything to them and make sure that you put lotion on it. They maybe temporary but they will last for a while and its better to take care of it for your skin" Ashley said
"I don't think I'm ever getting a tattoo in my life" The said as she looked at me. I laughed
"I love tattoos. Theirs just something about them like bass and heavy metal that just gets me... " I started
"Turned on? " Ashley asked as he glanced at me, a small smirk in his face as he chuckled. I blushed furiously "I can think of a few other things time turn you on"
"Oh fuck you" I said
"I wish I could" Ashley said as smoothly as he could
"I'm just going to pretend I didn't here that" Taylor said as she looked down.
"Yea you're probably going to have to do that for a long, long time" I said as I grabbed a water bottle and took a sip.
"Hey" Ashley defended as he got up "I am not that bad"
" You sure about that? Because if I remember correctly you are very very perverted and-"
"Yes I know I know" Ashley said
"Don't even get me started with your laptop mister. Vhy are those even on there? " I asked
"Hehe you weren't supposed to see that" Ashley said chuckling
"Yea you can't hide that from me that long. Vhy didn't it just stay on the camera? "
".... No reason.... " Ashley said just as Juniper and izekil walked in
"Anubis have you seen my drum sticks? I can't seem to find them anywhere" Izekil said. I shook my head
"No, I have no idea vhere they are you could have to ask CC I know he vas fooling around vith a set of drum sticks this morning" I answered
"Shit" He said as he ran his hands through his hair "I hope he does, that's the only set that I have"
"Good luck" I said a izekil walked out, slamming the door shut. I looked up at juniper
"Is there anything you need?"
"No I just wanted to hang out. Not much to do when you're pregnant" She said as she sat down next to me, her hand rubbing her stomach
"Tell me about it. I've been taking advantage of vatching TV and movies" I said. Juniper laughed as she looked at Taylor
"Who's the girl? " Juniper asked. I laughed
"Juniper that's Taylor Swift. Remember ve talked at the store " I said. Her face fell as she face palmed
"Oh my god, I'm so sorry. I didn't even recognize you" Juniper said. Taylor chuckled.
"It's fine" Taylor said
"So what's the occasion? " Juniper asked curiously
"I'm going to try out to be a rock star for a week. Just to get the full experience, dress and all" Taylor replied
" That's cool. Well hey I hope you enjoy it, switch you over to rock"juniper said jokingly
"Well you never know. But I'm pretty sure my manager would kill me seeing went from county to pop" Taylor replied.
"That must be fun" I said as Ashley came out from the back of the bus and walked over to me, before lifting me up and setting me down on his lap. I leaned on his chest as I intertwined our fingers.
"I would have preferred you stay country but hey live your life" Ashley said.
"I'm not hurting you am I? " I asked as I readjusted myself
"You're fine baby girl" Ashley said, sitting up himself.
"So juniper, you ready to see the orphanage vhen ve get back home? " I asked. Juniper looked at me confused
"What do you mean? I thought that they didn't break ground yet" Juniper said
"They started early. I got an email last night, I think. It's built, ve just have to add a few finishing touches and get kids in but ve'll be good to go" I said smiling
"Yayyyy I'm so excited" Juniper said happily "I can't wait, I just love kids. Even if they can be spoiled brats"
"Nice to know you called your own son and your god children spoiled brats" Ashley said as I reached out and pushed juniper over some. I watched as she just grinned
"Hey they are my god children and child I can say what I want. And besides I already know my child is a brat him keeps me up all night and he won't stop moving. Hell sometimes I think that I'm just flat out dying"
"I have yet to feel and kicking" I said, but not before I get something inside me move. I smiled "I take that back I just did"
"Really" They all asked, Ashley was happy about it before I grabbed his hand and placed it to where I was getting kicked. I looked at Ashley who had the biggest grin on his face, which made me smile and my heart flutter.
"This is amazing... " Ashley said, his voice barely above a whisper.
"May I? " Juniper and Taylor asked at the same time. I laughed
"Of course you can" I said. Taylor and juniper both reached over, placing their hands gently on my stomach. Their faces just light up.
"This is all so exciting" Juniper said "just think about it. This is a life changing experience, it's going to go by so fast"
"Tell me about it" Ashley said "I'm so fucking nervous"
"Awww, don't be. The only thing you have to worry about is screwing up or mentally scaring your kids. It's going to get an easy gig" Juniper said. Ashley glanced at juniper
"Thanks for the confidence" Ashley said sarcastically.
"Don't vorry outlaw, I think you'll be an excellent father. Despite vhat Juniper tells you" I said
"Hey why am I the one getting attacked here? I didn't do anything" Juniper asked pouting. I only laughed
"You're mean to me all the time" Ashley pointed out
"No, I was only mean to you when you started dating Anubis" Juniper countered.
"So you admit that you were mean to me" Ashley said.
"Well... I wouldn't say I was mean" Juniper suggested
"How was that not mean? You chased me around with a spatula threatening to beat my ass and burn all of my hello kitty stuff. Then you-"
"Ok, point taken. But I am not apologizing for what I did. I had a good reason too"
