I rented out a room in a small hotel and really didn't move much at all. Ash was mad at me, Andy possibly cheated on me and I'm all the way down here in Florida.

I sat on the bed and stared at the door waiting for something to happen..nothing did.

After all the silence my phone rang,

"Hello?"

"Are you okay?"

"Don't talk to me anymore." I hung up the phone but he called again, "stop calling me Ashley."

"I'm sorry I said that to you alright. Just, come back alright? I don't want you out there by yourself."

"I'm not a baby, I'll fucking be fine."

"I know you're not a baby but you're carrying one. Did you smoke?"

"No! Why would I smoke, what the hell is wrong with you?!" I screamed at him and threw my phone against the wall and it shattered.

I sighed really hard, grabbed a pillow and screamed into it. I was so fucking frustrated that it wasn't even funny.

I picked up my shattered phone and threw it in the garbage, I can always get another one.

I need to calm down. I can't keep getting mad at every little thing. I need to call Ashley back and apologize to him.

Then I got a knock at the door, or someone was just trying to get on my nerves. I opened the door and Andy was standing infront of me.

"How in the hell did you find me?"

"I looked everywhere for you, I couldn't let you be out here without me." I glared at him.

"Why did you cheat on me?"

"I didn't cheat on you, I never would, you've got to stop believing lies." He held my hands in his.

"Who was the girl?"

"I don't know I was drunk."

"That's the same excuse Oliver would use on me. I can't believe you Andy."

"Why in the hell would I lie to you? I love you too much and you know it. Don't fucking let the media screw with your head. I love you and wouldn't do anything to hurt you." He gave me a long, deep, kiss, then I started crying.

He held me and rested his chin on my head.

"Why don't you come back to the hotel with me and we can straighten everything out?"

"Are you crazy?! Ashley hates me, he's not gonna wanna see me."

"He doesn't hate you, he feels like actual shit because of the crap he said to you."

"I guess I might as well come with you..." He smiled and wiped my tears away with his thumb.

He took my bags, I checked out and then we headed to the car.

As we were driving back to the hotel, I was getting nervous. I didn't want things to stay the way they were between us.

A couple of minutes later we arrived at the hotel and got up to the room. Andy opened the door with the small card and walked in first, I followed suit.

I looked at Ashley and he kind of ran to me and hugged me.

"Sorry." We both said in unison. Everyone aw'd at the same time as well. When our embrace ended I said,

"I think I should go home, I think all of this was a waste of time, I'm not saying that seing you guys is a waste of time because its not, but my being here is."

"You don't have to go, I was being a dick, you can stay with us."

"No really, I can't I'm gonna cal the airport and leave on the next plane out of here."

"Oh...sorry for everything I put you through sis."

"Just forget it, its over with now." I turned around on my heel.

"Where the hell are you going?"

"I just- it feels like you don't want me here."

"Sit your ass down." He put his arm around me and smiled.

-------------------

I was back in California and back with Oliver. He picked me up at he airport, and when he did ge hugged me and spun me around.

He kissed my lips, "You know I missed you."He stared with an awkward glare into my eyes.

"Yeah yeah..."

"Something wrong?"

"No its nothing, I'm fine, can we go now?" He tapped his finger on his chin and said in a kind of naive way,

"Are you sure?"

"Yeah yeah I'm..fine." I sighed and let out a breath all at the same time. "Where'd you park the car?"

With that he ran through the airport, then outside like an idiot and brought the car around to me. I grabbed the few bags that I had and started walking in the direction that he'd ran.

Black Veil Brides will be back in 3 more weeks, that's all. Then maybe I can stop running up and down everywhere.

I waited for Oliver for a couple of minutes and then he pulled up right in front of me, grabbed my bags and threw them in the back seat. He kind of rushed me into the car, maybe he's had too much RedBull.

When he started driving he asked me, "How was it?"

"It was fine..." A total lie but, some things are better left unsaid.

I remember when I first met Andy, we were in middle school in the 7th grade. We had math class together and the teacher had us in groups for something we were supposed to work on. It was Andy, me, and another boy and girl.

He wasn't really all that shy but he hid, in a way. He even invited me over to his house just because he was so excited that I was his friend.

Then he moved because his mom thought I was a slut just like my mother and didn't want her son to be influenced into doing bad things. I gave him a very small heart locket that my mom bought for me at an antique store.I told him to never forget me.

And that was the last that we ever saw of eachother. Sometimes I wonder if he still has that locket or if he just forgot about it.

Oliver kissed me forehead, snapping me out of my flashback. I jumped. "Why're you so jumpy?"

"Nothing, I just-it's nothing." I looked at him and his smirk, something seemed different about him.

"Did you go in my room?" He shrugged and sharpened his smirk.

"Is that my bracelet?"

"I thought you'd never ask." He smiled and slightly cocked his head.

"Give it back, my mom bought that for me."

"Well she can buy you another one, I think this is very nice." He held his hand out in front of him and examined the bracelet.

"No she can't..." I struggled to get out.

"What, did she buy this from Spain or whatever?"

"No...she can't buy me another one because she's dead." He didn't say anything, slipped the bracelet off of his wrist and handed it to me.

I went into my room and put the bracelet back into my jewlery box. I layed down on my bed and stared at the ceiling, silently crying and putting my hands over my mouth if I ever made any loud noise.

I locked the door so Oliver wouldn't bother me; he knew I needed to be alone.

I wiped my eyes with the backs of my hands and sat up. Why did I just do that? There's no point in crying. She's already dead and nothing's going to bring her back..her or dad.

I walked over to the door and unlocked it to find Oliver sitting on the floor waiting for me.

"You okay?"

"Yeah." I sat down across from him."You know you should really ask before stealing someone's stuff!"

He smiled, "You know I can't do that." he paused,"so, what happend to your folks?"

I looked down and swallowed hard before answering.

"When Ashley and I were younger there was a fire. Ashley ran into my room and woke me up, he said that mom and dad were outside waiting for us, but they weren't. He told me he thought he saw them outside but it was just the neighbors, so we just watched the house almost burn down to the ground. And by the time the firemen had arrived they were already dead from the smoke and there was nothing they could do. Sometimes I wish I would've gone back in the house and woken them up, I wonder how things would be different."

"How come you never told me that this happened?"

"Because I never wanted you or anyone else to know, it was supposed to our secret that nobody else was supposed to know." He hugged me and tears slipped out of my eyes.

"Damn. I was supposed to cry." I gave a slight chuckle.

"It's okay, you need to cry, it's good for you."

I sighed heavily and stood up, he followed suit. I went back in my room and brought Oliver in with me. I sat him down on my bed and brought over my jewlery box. I opened it to reveal most of my jewlery: earrings, bracelets, necklaces, rings. But underneath was another set of jewlery,

"This is all of our mom's jewlery, all of it is really antique." He ran his fingers through all of the jewlery and picked up on of my moms necklaces and put it around my neck.

"I think that you should wear this one." He picked and old rusted bottle cap necklace that she made. It was my favorite one when I was little.

There's only one picture that I have of her and me and Ashley all together and it's the only one that reminds me of how beautiful she was. I had now taken the necklace off.

"You know what's weird?" I paused for a few seconds looking down at the necklace that I held in my hands, "Ashley reminds me a lot of our mom, the way he's super over-protective of me, and how he likes to take care of me so much. That's why he doesn't trust you Oliver. He's scared and afraid that he might lose me too, and I know if he did he would be absolutely devastated. So, if you could please be really good when they get back and be especially nice to Ash, then I'll ask him if you can stay with us when the baby is born."

"Oh my god you are amazing Sam. But you don't have to do that, I'll be around the baby no matter what." He smiled and kissed my cheek.

"It's getting really stuffy in here."

"That must be you." We both chuckled. I put the jewlery back in its place and took him downstairs where the air was a little cooler and told him he could go in the pool if he wanted to but he didn't.

He said he'd rather spend the time that was supposed to be spent in the pool with me.

Such a sweet man...when he wants to be.

Today the Brides were coming home and I was supposed to pick them up from the airport with Oliver. I've been waiting for this day for weeks and now it's finally here. Plus I missed having some girl time with Sammi and getting to know Emily a little better.

I was supposed to pick them up 2:00 p.m. To tell the truth I was kind of nervous and a little bit scared, I'm hoping that their plane doesn't plunge into the ocean.

I had that pit in my stomach that was telling me something was wrong.

"Maybe we should leave now?"

"It's gonne take us 30 minutes to get there and it's 11:30, no need to rush." I started to bite my fingernails.

"Calm down, why're you so nervous, you saw them a few weeks ago. Chill."

"I don't know! I just am alright."

"Well, while you figure out what's wrong with you I'm gonna go in the pool." I looked at him and narrowed my eys and he grinned at me and went outside, taking a towel with him.

Maybe I just need to relax and not think about them as much. I sat down on the couch and watched t.v. letting the hours go by and it was 1:30 soon.

Oliver was still outside in the pool. I tapped on the glass letting him know that I was ready,

"Let's go! Now!" I grabbed my car keys and flip-flops and Oliver yelled back at me,

"Where the hell are you going? Aren't you going to wait?!"

"Well hurry the hell up then!" He changed his shirt and shorts and ran past me outside. I got in the car and started driving to the airport.

"There's no point in being mad at me, it isn't going to solve anyhting." He didn't say a word, his eyes glued to the road. I looked for my Alesana CD and put it in the player to drown out Oliver's mood.

I played 'Apology';he still wasn't talking. When the CD was done, we were at the airport and I parked in a spot near the sliding doors.

Before I got out I said to him,

"Please Oliver, be good." He sighed and unbuckled his seat belt.

"Whatever you want dear." He said in a sarcastic way and I smiled. As we walked all around the airport to find Terminal E, Oliver was slowly walking behind me.

"Walk faster!" I turned around and yelled in his direction.

"Why don't you walk slower." I flipped him off, turned a corner and there was Terminal E all along, right around the corner just sitting there.

They weren't there yet so I sat down in a chair and let out a sigh. Oliver rounded the corner with a smile on his face and sat down next to me. Then I heard,

"Sam!" I turned my head and stood up because it was Ashley. We walked over to eachother and embraced.

"I'm so glad your plane didn't crash into the ocean."

"Well thanks, I missed you too." He chuckled and I hugged Andy next and everyone else too. I kissed Andy; I could hear Oliver gagging behind me.

"What's he doing here?" Ashley said and put his bags down.

"Calm down Ash, he's been doing really good since you guys left so if you could please not be an asshole to him I would really love that."

"Yeah why don't you listen to her for once like you never do."

"Shut up Oliver this is not your fight."

"If that baby wasn't mine I wouldn't even be here right now so I don't think you should be saying shit to me."

"Don't you fucking talk to my sister like that you sick fuck." I put my hands on Ashley's chest to stop him from doing something he would regret.

"Stop it Oliver, I thought you were going to be nice."

"Guess I must've lied." He smirked, looked Andy dead in the eye and said,

"What about you? You haven't said shit because you won't do shit."

"Andy stop it, don't let him get to you." Obviously my words didn't mean anything because he punched Oliver dead in the mouth.

I covered my mouth with my hands and helped Oliver up "Go in the car." I told him "Go!" His eyes narrowed at Andy and then he left for the car.

"What the motherfuckinghell is wrong with you?! Can nothing be peaceful between you and him? No matter what you do, no matter what you say, nothing is going to change him. He won't budge, you don't understand that so just stop being an asshole and get over yourself."

"I don't want him hurting you that's all."

"You know what? I'm not even gonna have this conversation with you right now, let's go home."

I let Ashley drive while I sat way in the back of the car with Oliver. I turned my body towards him and said,

"I really can't believe you just did that! When we get home, you're leaving."

"What?! I didn't do shit, it was all them!"

"No. You always start fights. Even when we were together you would always accuse me of doing something with every guy that looked at me or talked to me. You would beat them up because of that and then they wouldn't talk to me again. I want you out of the house because I can't have this baby in a stressful environment. Sorry."

Oliver crossed his arms "Too late for that."

After what happened two weeks ago I'm still very pissed with Andy. Nonetheless this baby is due in about a week and I think Ashley is totally, and completely over the fact that the brawl with Andy and Oliver even happened.

It was 9:30 p.m., Andy, Ash, and I were discussing baby names, Emily and Chris were periodically joining and talking amongst themselves at the same time, Jinxx and Sammi were out somewhere and Jake was passed out in the recliner.

"What about Sam?" Andy said.

"Ew, disgusting. I like Harley for a girl and Adam for a boy." I said happily.

"Adam? Really?" Ashley said to me.

"You're not the one having the baby here." Suddenly I felt the baby kick. "See, he or she does like Adam."

"You guys are really asking the baby if it like that name?"

"Yes we are." I said to Chris sticking my tongue out at him.

"Maybe it just wants to get out there." I rolled my eyes at his smart ass comment.

Then suddenly Jinxx and Sammi burst through the front door and Sammi said,

"Guess what?"

"Your uncle died, came back to as a ghost to haunt you, yeah we've heard that story a million times already."

"No, even though my uncle was amazing it's not that." She looked at Jinxx and then back at us,

"We're getting married in December."

"Awesome you guys." I said, hugging them both simultaneously.

"I wanted it to be in December because of you Sam, you and your baby, I wanted to give you time to adjust to everything. Plus you're my maid of honor." I shrieked a little from all of the exitement and hugged her tightly and the baby kicked me again.

"Was that the baby?" She kind of chuckled.

"Yeah." I smiled.

"That was weird, I felt that." Then she started laughing.

I kicked Jake awake and he flipped me off not even opening his eyes.

"Thanks Sammi." I smiled and sat back down in the chair.

---------------------

When I woke up it was 3:30 a.m. and the bed was soaking wet with water. Shit. Not now, I'm too tired.

I tried to shake Andy awake who was sleeping next to me. I tried everything to get him awake but nothing worked so I tried Ash. I banged on his bedroom door with my fist,

"Wake up!" He unlocked and opened the door and his eyes went wide.

"Uhm, what's going on?"

"The baby's coming you idiot! Get me to the hospital." Then Ashley went into Super-Overprotective Brother mode, got me to the hospital and told me he'd be back with everyone else.

In the meantime I called Oliver, or at least tried to. I called him twice and no answer , I even left a message and he didn't return it.

Then I was greeted by a doctor who took me up to the third floor to the maternity ward and put me in a room with two nurses.

I tried calling Oliver again and he picked up as the first contraction came through.

"Hello?"

"Oh holyfuckingjesus! Oliver?"

"What do you want now?"

"Sorry, it's these contractions. The baby is coming right now and I think," I paused for a few short breaths "you should come down here to the hospital right now."

"Uhm..okay. I'll be there in a few minutes." He sounded so nonchalant about it but I didn't have time to think about that now.

I set my phone down and waited for the arrival of the Brides or Oliver. The Brides had shown up first and Andy and Ash were helping me through all of the pain, when Oliver showed up Ashley got furious,

"Ashley this is NOT the time!" I stared angry daggers at him; furious, angry, I'm-gonna-kill-you daggers.

"Alright, alright." I told Ashley to leave and wait outside with everyone else.

At 8:00 a.m. October 18th, Harley Purdy was born. She was beautiful, she had Oliver's gorgeous eyes, a little tuft of black hair on her head, and my nose, she was gorgeous.

I passed her around for everyone to see and then finally I gave her to Oliver.

He smiled when he saw her face and kissed her on her nose,

"Take good care of her Sam."

"I will." I smiled really wide.

A week later I was sprawled out on the couch half-asleep with Harley in my arms. I could hear the static from the t.v. and then it stopped.

I opened my eyes slowly to find that Andy had turned the t.v. off and was about to take Harley from my arms. He kissed my forehead and I rolled over onto my side, making me fall into a deeper sleep.

I woke up around 5 p.m. to hear Harley's crying. Jinxx had her is his arms and was trying to rock her to sleep but she wouldn't stop.

"What'd you do to her?"

"Nothing! She was crying , no one was around, you were asleep so I picked her up and now she won't shutup."

"Well, maybe she's hungry or her diaper's full." He handed her to me and I checked to see if she needed a change but she didn't.

"Where's Oliver? Isn't he supposed to play the role of daddy?"

"I don't know where he is. I tried calling him but he wouldn't pick up his phone." I grabbed a bottle from the coffee table and started feeding her.

"He is an asshole, you should be glad you have Andy. Not many guys would take care of another dudes kid."

"Yeah...I know. Can you go get him for me please?" He very lightly nodded and went to get Andy.

He came down the hall and smiled.

"Can you sit down? I need to talk to you." He gave me a pout but sat down.

"I think I know what this is about."

"I wish that you and Oliver could just get along because I can't deal with you and him trying to kill eachother all the goddamn time. It's not good for Harley either," I swallowed hard and looked to the floor, my chest getting heavy,"I don't want to leave you...but maybe living with Oliver for a little while would be the best for the both of us."

He sat there, looking down at his hands and a single tear fell from his face, "I only want what's best for you and Harley."

"Well what would be best for us is if I stayed with Oliver for a little while. I can't deal with everything right now."

He looked up at me with a frown on his face; he pulled us into him and kissed my cheek and Harleys forehead.

"I'm sorry that it had to come down to this Andy, I really am. But i'll still visit and let you all see Harley." He grinned slightly.

-----------------------

I was in my room packing mine and Harley's bags when Ashley opened my door,

"Hey we're- what's all this, where're you going?"

"I'm...leaving." His face turned from playful to serious.

"Why? What's wrong?"

"Just tell everyone that I'll miss them." He grabbed me by the sides of my arms,

"Why are you leaving? I could see the panic in his eyes beginning to set in.

"I can't stay here, I don't want Oliver and Andy at eachothers throats."

"And that means you have to leave?" He gave me pleading eyes; begging me to stay.

"I'm sorry Ash."

"You can't go I won't let you."

"And how're you going to stop me?"

"I'll keep Harley here."

"Ashley, don't do this to me. You know if you do that I would fucking kill you, now move." I tried to push him out of my way but he wouldn't budge.

"Are you really going to stay with that rat?"

"He is not a rat and yes I am." After that he didn't say anything, he just left, then there was cold silence.

Maybe it was disappoint that made him leave, seeing his little sister make a bad decision, but whatever it was that made him walk away from me I hope that he forgets it and is able to forgive me for being such a bad influence in his life.

I couldn't help but feel just a tiny bit of guilt; I felt like I was doing something I shouldn't but if it's for Harleys' sake I will do anything.

Oliver's P.O.V.

I kind of cleaned up the place a little bit to make everything look just a little neater. Sam would be over in a little while and I wanted to make a better impression than I had done over the last couple of months.

Then the doorbell rang and I went to answer it, but when I opened the door, it wasn't Sam, it was my ex before Sam ever even happened. Miya.

"What are you doing here?"

"I want you back that's what I'm doing here. I'm so sorry for everything, I mean it. I swear to God."

"Well, I don't want you. Sorry."

"What?!"

"I don't want you Miya! I have," I paused for a minute before I realized what I was going to say, "a kid now."

This shocked her; she seemed to have calmed down because she wasn't so furious anymore.

"W-what?"

"The girls name is Sam and the kid is Harley. I don't want you here when she gets here."

"Is she that girl with the brother from that stupid band, Black Veil something?"

"Hey! They are not stupid, now I want your ass out of here."

"Nah. I want to meet that dumbfuck and then knock the shit out of her." She smiled while cracking her knuckles.

"What is wrong with you?"

"It's not me...it's you."
