2 Months, 3 Weeks and 2 Days Later - March 27/20
"Hey what are you still doing here? You're suppose to be at the set in 10 minutes," Dave said as he came into the bedroom.
"I have the day off. They need to reshoot most of yesterday so I wasn't needed," I replied as he walked into the closet. When he came back out, Dave gave me a funny look as he buttoned up his red plaid shirt.
"So do you want me to tell Kimmy to have the day off then?" he asked as he walked over to the side of the bed I was on.
"No it's fine," I replied. When Dave sat down beside me, he put a hand on my knee and gave it a light squeeze.
"Ok then. So what are your plans for today now that you have the day off?" Dave asked with a small smile. I shrugged and then went to staring at my feet. I was looking right at them but I didn't see them. I must have been staring for awhile because Dave turned my face so I could see him.
"What's wrong? Was the test negative again?" he asked.
"I didn't take it," I responded with. I moved my head so I was staring at my feet again.
"Why not?" Dave asked. I sighed and then got off on the opposite side of the bed. Dave got up and started around the bed but I stopped him.
"Dave stop. Just please. I can't see another negative sign. Every time you suggest I take one it's always negative. Then I go to tell you and you have a smile plastered on your face but I just make it disappear every time. I hate seeing the minus sign and then giving you a reason to frown. I'm not saying I want to stop trying. I just want to stop taking tests everyday that I'm late. It'll happen when it happens ok," I said. By the time I was finished I was crying and shaking. Dave walked over to me and hugged me.
"I'm sorry. From now on no more tests and I'll stop asking you about your monthly visitor. It'll happens when it happens," Dave said as he rubbed my back. I looked up at him and smiled.
"I'm sorry I freaked out. I know we both want this but me being stressed about it isn't going to help. Also there's something else,'' I said as I pulled away from him.
"What babe? Whatever it is we can handle it," Dave said back.
"There's rumors that this might not be the actual last season. Marc has also hinted at that when he said I should keep my schedule open," I responded with.
"Oh," Dave said a little surprised as he sat down on the bed.
"Ya," I said back.
"Do it. If you get more seasons than just do them. You love your job and I know you want to be with James more and the second baby whenever he or she comes. But if it works out that you get more seasons then do them. We worked our schedules around a movie, a tv show and a tour. We've got this. Whatever the fuck the world throw at us, we got it. We're an almost unbreakable team," Dave said after awhile.
"Are you sure? I mean it was only suppose to be four seasons and then I'd be free to do whatever. What if I get another movie offer while I'm doing these seasons? I can't do that again. I was overworked and stressed and neither you or James need that," I responded back with. Dave pulled me over to him and sat me on his lap.
"Then don't do them. Only you can make the final decision when and if the time comes. No matter what you decide though James and I will be here to support and love you the whole way. Just like you two are for me. Just follow your heart and trust your gut babe," Dave said and then kissed my shoulder.
"I'll try. Why are you always the rational one in this relationship?" I half asked half joked.
"I'm the mature older one that's why. Why don't you come down to the studio with me today and be a fly on the wall? The guys wouldn't mind seeing you. Plus you need a cheer up day Mrs. Grohl," Dave suggested.
