I awoke from my dream to see Levi laying beside me smiling down at me. "How was your nap?" he asked kissing the top of my head.

"The best in a long time" I answered truthfully.

His arms moved around me and pulled me closer to his body. I smiled up at him, remembering my dream and one of my favorite memories of him. I softly pressed my lips to his and couldn't help but smile. When he pulled away, he gently brushed a few stray hairs away before giving me another quick kiss. I pouted as he pulled away causing him to smirk. He smiled at me, I closed my eyes as he began to lean in but instead of kissing me again, I felt his tongue like my nose.

My eyes shot open to see him dive off the couch and dash out the door. I rolled my eyes and took off after him. People turned to stare at us as we made a mad dash around the bus area. As I neared Levi I could hear him trying to hold back laughter as he ran. I rolled my eyes again and hoped he'd stop running soon, because I was definitely not in the same shape I used to be.

Up ahead I saw Levi do a final sprint to our bus, to which I happily slowed a bit relieved I could stop running. I entered the bus to find him laying on the couch as if he had been there the whole time.

"Hey buttercup! Where'd you go?" he asked trying to not sound out of breath.

I rolled my eyes before speaking, "Oh you know just out enjoying the weather" I continued walking into the bathroom.

After attempting to fix my a hair a bit, however I soon gave up and tossed it into a bun. I stared at my reflection and noticed the small bump that was beginning to form. If I remember correctly I should be nearing three months. I slowly lifted my shirt to get a better look. The bump was not big enough so that people would assume I was pregnant, maybe more like think I pigged out on burritos with Jason again. A smile began to form across my face as my hand absentmindedly moved to my growing stomach. Through the mirror I saw Levi get up and walk over to me. He smiled at me through the mirror before standing behind me and wrapping his arms delicately around my waist. I smiled as I saw our reflection and felt a tear of joy slip down my face. Levi smiled as he wiped it from my face and kissed the top of my head.

Like all of our cute moments, it was good while it lasted. Jason soon burst through the door and completely spoiled the cuteness. He leaned his head into the bathroom and smiled at us before deciding to join us by creating a group hug. "I want a taco" we heard him whisper to both of us.

Levi chuckled before speaking, "Go get Kenney and then we can head to Taco Bell."

Jason's face lit up as he took off out the door in the search of our scrawny guitar player. Within a few minutes, Jason returned dragging a very pissed off looking Kenney.

"Dude!" he yelled, "I was talking to a really nice girl!"

"But Levi said we can have tacos!"

Kenney's eyes lit up as he looked at his brother, "Are you paying?"

Levi groaned before responding "I guess"

"Then what are we waiting for Levi is buying us tacos!" Kenney yelled as he and Jason took off towards the nearest Taco Bell, that was conveniently across the street. To be honest, I may never understand those two. I sighed to myself as I looked over at Levi. I smiled when he took my hand and gave it a gentle squeeze. We made our way to Taco Bell where we were greeted by two overly eager teenagers.

Soon the four of us were seated enjoying our food and joking around like we always do. Halfway through the meal Levi's hand found my thigh and rested there. Honestly, I don't think the four of us could have been any happier than we were now. They were always there when I needed them and over the years our little band has become a little family. Sure we have our ups and our downs and occasionally we fight, but in the end we have each other and everything eventually works out. It has surprised me however, that Kenney has not said anything about him liking me since his and Levi's fight. I know it shouldn't worry me, but it does. Kenney has been with me the longest, sure I don't think I could ever think about him like that, but a part of me keeps thinking about that morning we spent together just taking in the scenery.

---------Kenney's Point of View~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~--------------------------------------~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


I looked across the table at Harley. I can't stop thinking about her. I know she has been my best friend practically my whole life, but I always pictured my future with her. Never did I think she would fall for my twin brother and I never saw him leaving his player life to take care of her. Now I definitely never planned that'd he get her pregnant. Part of me was jealous of him. I wanted it to be my baby. I wanted her to be the first thing I saw when I woke up. I wanted her to be mine to hold for the rest of my life. Little did she know that I had planned to ask her out during Warped. I had it all planned out. I was going to take her to her favorite restaurants and her favorite stores, over all of Warped. Then, on the last day, after one of our shows I was going to have Jason pull out a bouquet of her favorite flowers from behind his drum set and hand them to me. I was going to get down on one knee and hand her the flowers and ask her to be mine. I know Harley is not the girly type, but it was worth a shot. Its been hard for me to face the fact that she is Levi's now and probably will be for the rest of her life. Surprisingly, as time goes on, I am actually happy for them. I see the way that they look at each other and I have seen how much both of them love their future child. They may not notice it, but the two of them have definitely matured over the past month. Never in a million years did I ever think I would see my brother be so happy with one girl in his life. Over the past few days, I have decided that if Harley can not be mine, then I am glad that she has someone who loves her with all his heart.
