{Luna's POV} 

Celaena, Mandy and I were sitting in my new SUV that Chris forgot to show me for my birthday Celaena and I were listening to Motionless In White's album Graveyard Shift we were listening to the song "Hour Glass" I turned the song up a little. When the song went off Celaena paused the CD and looked out the passenger side window I noticed she was crying. 

"Celaena what's the matter?" I asked concerned. 

"I'm nervous about the talent show tonight." Celaena cried. 

"Sweetie you remind me a lot of your father because he was the same way the night of Motionless In White's first concert." I said. 

"How did dad get over being nervous?" 

"I looked your father in the eyes and told him that he will be fine because this is what he always wanted to do." 

"Did it help calm dad's nerves?" She asked. 

"Your father said it did." I replied. 

Celaena gave me a hug and climbed out of the SUV with Mandy I started the engine and drove away when I arrived home, I parked in front of the house I stopped the CD and killed the engine I grabbed my purse and climbed out of the SUV. I walked up to the house and opened the storm door I unlocked the inside door and walked inside the house I closed the door behind me and locked it I took off my jacket and hung it up. I sat my purse on the hallway table and walked upstairs to mine and Chris's room I walked into the room he was still sound asleep I kicked off my shoes and climbed into bed with him and snuggled up behind Chris, I softly kissed his back I felt him stirring Chris rolled over and faced me I looked at him and smiled. 

"Do you hate to see me sleep?" 

"Go back to sleep grumpy butt." 

I climbed out of bed and grabbed my combat boots I walked back downstairs I sat down on the stairs and put my combat boots back on and put on my jacket I grabbed Jack's leash and put it on him I walked out the door with Jack. I walked down the street and took Jack for a walk my cellphone was ringing I pulled my phone out of the pocket of my jeans and answered it. 

"Where are you?" Chris asked. 

"Taking Jack for a walk and debating if I should come back home and deal with your attitude." I said. 

"It's cold out please come home." 

"I'll be home." 

I hung up the phone and walked back home I walked up to the house and opened the storm door I walked inside the house with Jack I closed the inside door behind me and locked it. I took off Jacks leash and hung it up I took off my jacket and hung it up I walked into the living room Chris wasn't there I left the living room and walked into the kitchen he wasn't there either I left the kitchen and walked upstairs. 

"Chris where are you?" I called. 

I walked into mine and Chris's room he was still lying in bed I rubbed my arms to warm them up I knew I was supposed to still be pissed at him but I needed to be warm I kicked off my combat boots and climbed into bed with Chris and snuggled up beside him Chris wrapped his arms around me I laid my head on his chest.

"Damn baby you're freezing." 

"Please keep me warm." 

"Of course, I'll keep you warm. How was Celaena when you drove her to school?" Chris asked. 

"She's nervous as hell about performing tonight but I calmed her nerves when I told Celaena that you felt the same way when you were going to perform for the first time after I told her how I calmed your fears she felt better." I said.
