Today is the day Jack finally comes back from tour. Gabriela sat in their apartment that morning, waiting for Jack to fly home from Seattle.

She was editing some photos while watching YouTube when she heard the door unlock. She quickly put her laptop down and power-walked to the door, greeting her boyfriend.

"Jack," she breathed out. She immediately wrapped her arms around his neck and hugged him tightly. He rested his hands gently on her hips.

"Gabriela, let me breathe," he managed to squeak out. She let go only to smash her lips on his, passionately kissing him. When she finally let go, Jack could see the sparks in her eyes.

"I love you too," he said, making her laugh.

"I really missed you," she explained. "So did Lavender."

"Well, lemme grab a snack and I'll unpack, and you can tell me all about it," Jack laughed.

Gabbie sat down on their white bedsheets, cradling her stomach with her hand. Jack sprawled his suitcase out and put away shoes and accessories. They shared a a bag of pita chips, telling each other the details that weren't mentioned over their short FaceTime calls.

That night, Jack lied down next to Gabbie in their bed and rested his hand on her stomach. He began to sing '8 Letters,' one of the band's songs that was actually inspired by Gabriela. Seconds after his sweet, calming voice filled the room, baby Lavender began kicking in her mother's belly, making her parents smile. They leaned in for a kiss, as Jack continued the song.

When he finished, Gabbie laid her head on his shoulder, allowing him to get underneath the comforter. "Only a few more weeks, Jack."

"Only a few more weeks, Gabriela."

Only a few more weeks until we have a daughter.
