Holding Out For A Hero

55. Gone Too Soon

11 Weeks And 5 Days Later - June 15, 2020

A few days before season four wrapped, Marc told everyone we where going for two more seasons. I was happy about it because Dave and I had talked about it until we were both blue in the face and had agreed that I'd do them. James and I spent a week alone together before we headed out to join Dave on the mini summer tour the guys had set up. Today was the first day we were joining Dave and I was nervous to see him. Gus met us at the airport and took us to the venue where the guys were rehearsing. When Dave saw us walking up to the stage he smiled wide, jumped off the stage and came over to us. He picked me up in a hug and spun me around a couple of times before putting me back on the ground. He gave me a quick kiss before doing the exact same thing to James.

"Dad stop. You're tickling me," James giggled as Dave smothered him with kisses.

"Is someone getting too old already for kisses from me?" Dave asked him as he put James down.

"Uh huh. Uncle Taylor," James screamed as he ran away from us.

"You can smother me with kisses if you want," I said as he pulled me closer to him.

"I'll give you tons of kisses later. How are you feeling? I know you said you've been feeling a little under the weather lately," Dave said after he kissed me again.

"I am perfectly fine. Actually umm is there a place we can go to talk?" I asked.

"Why do we need to go somewhere to talk? Did you cheat again?" Dave asked in response.

"God no! Why do you just assume that's what I want to tell you? I can't believe you," I said and walked away from him. I was half way to the stage when Dave grabbed my arm to stop me.

"I'm sorry. It's just where my mind goes and I hate that it does that. What did you want to talk about?" Dave asked. I sighed and rolled my eyes before I looked at him.

"I wanted to tell you that I was pregnant," I said as I looked down towards the floor.

"You're what? Say it again for me please," Dave said excitedly.

"I'm pregnant," I said again. Dave let out a fuck ya before putting both of his hands on my cheeks and kissing me. When he pulled away from me, I noticed the guys all staring at us. I pointed behind Dave and he turned to look at them.

"Should we tell them?" He asked with the hugest grin I've ever seen plastered to his face.

"Of course," I replied with the exact same grin on my face.

Dave kissed me again before turning around and shouting that I was pregnant. When we joined everyone on the stage they gave us all hugs and congratulated us. After that I took James and we went and sat side stage while the guys finished their sound check. Once they were done we headed to the hotel for a bit until James woke up from his nap. He had fallen asleep shortly before we left the venue which I was happy about because he didn't sleep the whole plane ride or much last night. Once Dave tucked James into one bed, he came and joined me on the other.

"So how far along are you?" he asked as he put a hand on my tummy.

"Eight weeks this week. Best going away present you could have given me," I replied.

"I had a feeling you were the last time we talked. I had just woken you up from a nap and you said that you felt off. You also weren't straight with me about the doctor's appointment but I get it. I know why you wanted to wait until we were together though," Dave said as I sat up and leaned against the headboard.

"I wanted to see the smile on your face. I did not expect you to shout fuck ya though," I said with a giggle.

"I couldn't contain myself. I'm also sorry for assuming," he started but I stopped him with a kiss.
