**A/N Time for chapter 10! Review, follow, favorite if you'd like **

I woke up in a daze; my vision was blurry and my head was pounding. I could hear people talking around me but I couldn't make out what they were saying because they were hushed. I blinked my eyes frantically to get my vision back and I saw that I was in a hospital room along with my brother, mother, Scottie and Rico. "Mom?" I croaked. Everyone's heads snapped towards me and rushed over. "Becky, how are you feeling? You want some water?" My mother's voice filled my ears; it felt like forever before I registered her questions and nodded in response. I struggled to push myself up in the hard hospital bed and groaned loudly in pain. "My head and back hurts like a bitch!" I mumbled as my brother handed me a bottle of water. I gulped half of it down and set it on the small table next to the bed. "You fell pretty hard and you have a concussion and strained a muscle in your back, but you'll live." Scottie said trying to make me feel better. "When can I leave?" I really hated hospitals; the only thing I thought of was people dying or in pain and I hated the smell of them; it just made me feel even more sick. "Soon, we're just waiting for the discharge papers and you meds to be ready at the pharmacy." Scott smirked. We had always had competitions going with everything we did, be it how often we went outside or how many times we went to the hospital; he always won the hospital battle because he was more daring than I was and constantly getting hurt. "Everyone is here but if you don't want to see them we can just tell them to go back to the house." Kenzie spoke. I wanted to talk to Andy before we went home and I figured now is the best time. "Can you tell Andy to come and see me? I really need to talk to him." I sighed. Everyone nodded and began to leave the room and then I was finally alone to my thoughts and fears of speaking to Andy. What if he hates me? What if he doesn't love me anymore? So many 'What if's' went through my head before the small door to my room creaked open. I lifted my head up and saw a teary, blood-shot eyed Andy; he looked like a puppy that had been kicked and I felt terrible. "Andy, I'm… I'm sorry." I shouted before losing it; I cried loudly and Andy ran over to me and hugged me as tight as he could to try and comfort me. "You have nothing to be sorry about. I was angry and I didn't know what I was doing; if anything I should thank you for smacking me because if you didn't I would have hurt Tony. I never want you to think that what you did was wrong. I love you no matter what." His voice was creaky but what he said was heartfelt. "You still love me?" I said as he wiped the last of my tears away. "Of course I do! How could I not love a beautiful, caring, adorable girl like you." He said while a large smile crept up to his face. I looked into his eyes and couldn't help but kiss him; we must have kissed for a while because neither of us heard the door open and everyone walk in until CC and Ashley cheered in unison at our display. I immediately pulled my lips away from Andy's and hid my blushing face. It's not that I was embarrassed but I didn't need them to just walk into my room while I was making out with Andy! They could've at least knocked. My brother coughed loudly before speaking, "You can leave now." And he left the room looking quite flushed himself. I let out a small chuckle and told everyone to leave so I could get out of the horrid hospital gown. I went over to one of the chairs and grabbed my clothes that were in a plastic bag and made my way to a small bathroom located on the other side of the room and shut the door. I was still a little light headed and steadied myself with my hands on the sink. I looked in the mirror and I looked like I had been ran over by a truck; my hair was a mess, my make-up was smeared and I looked abnormally pale, all of which was understandable. I quickly got dressed and threw my vans on so I could leave. I walked out of my room and saw that everyone had left except for Andy, Tony and Kenzie. "Everyone went back to the house; they didn't want to overwhelm you." Kenzie smiled softly when she said it. I just nodded and walked out of the hospital and to Andy's car. Kenzie and tony went to Tony's car after telling us they'd see us at home. I don't know why but I wanted to live with these people for the rest of my life; they made everything so much better and much more exciting, never a dull moment with them. "Maybe after school ends" I said quietly to myself; I didn't think Andy had heard it but the confused look on his face said that he did. "I was just thinking we should get a huge house and live with each other." I laughed while I explained my ridiculous idea. Andy's face turned serious and he nodded, "Okay, whatever you want love." My eyes grew wide when he said that, I was just joke, mostly, but I didn't think he would take it so serious. "No, Andy. I wasn't really serious." I chuckled. I looked over at him and he had a goofy, evil grin on his face and I knew he was going to keep my idea in the back of his head forever. We finally pulled up to my house and everyone was in the backyard, talking and laughing until I walked back there; this really wasn't a good idea. CC ran towards me a full speed and twirled me around and asked if I was okay then put me down. I just smiled. I was really happy just to be out of the woods and home again. I pulled up a chair and plopped down. I was still a little out of it but everyone came up to me telling me almost the same thing of how they missed me and asked how I was or if I needed anything and to be honest it was getting annoying but I put up with it. I wasn't really in the mood to talk to anybody or even be out here so I figured it was getting late anyway and I just wanted to eat something and go to sleep so that's what I did but instead of telling everyone that, I just said I was going inside to get something to eat and I wouldn't come back out. I stretched and started walking towards my backdoor and as I opened it Rico and Scottie came running inside with me. I let out I quiet groan and rolled my eyes as I stepped into the kitchen. "So, are you and Andy okay?" Scottie asked with a hopeful smirk on his face. I just nodded not taking my eyes off of the sandwich I was making. "Are you okay?" Rico asked and that was it I snapped and unintentionally yelled at him. "Please, stop asking me if I'm okay or if I need anything!" I growled and soon felt really bad that I yelled at him. "I'm sorry but after 3 hours of people asking me the same questions, I'm a little on edge." I sighed. They both nodded and said goodnight as if they knew I wasn't going to come back out with them. I wasn't planning on it so I grabbed my food and sauntered to my bed. I placed my food down on my night stand and got changed into some shorts and loose, oversized tee- shirt. I hopped into bed, turned on my TV and began eating my sandwich. I laughed at how pathetic most of these reality shows were and ended up watching Titanic, one of my guilty pleasures. I finished my sandwich and pulled out a cigarette and lit it, inhaling it killer qualities. I was almost finished with my cigarette when Andy slowly opened my door; I smiled when I saw him but when I heard whispers from behind him the smile weakened a bit. I rolled my eyes, put my cigarette out and got up to go out into the living room with everyone else. I got smiles all around and guilty looks from Scottie and Rico, whom I gave deadly glares to. Andy sat down on the couch and I curled up on top of him; I really just wanted to go back to my bed. I almost fell asleep until I heard a crash and some yelling. I shot up and looked around to see Ashley hiding something behind his back and CC looking scared. "WHAT. DID. YOU. BREAK." I said sternly. I had to force Ashley to show me what he hid behind his back; it was a little figurine of a teddy bear my mom got when I was born. I snatched it from his hands, walked into my kitchen and grabbed some crazy glue to try and fix it, it took me a few minutes to glue the cute porcelain bear's head, foot and sign back on. When I was done I put the glue away and went directly to my room without saying another wood to anyone; I slammed my door so they would get the point that I was pissed off. It took all my might to not scream at them but I held my tongue and temper and wrapped myself into my blanket; I tried to fall asleep but I couldn't I was angry with today, nothing went right besides making up with Andy. I heard Andy quietly yelling at them and then open the door; he quietly shut it. I had my back turned to him but I wasn't mad at him so I turned my head slightly and looked at him. He looked angry and tired, "Come on, get in bed. It's been a long day for both of us." I smiled weakly. He simply nodded before ripping his shirt and pants off and putting some sweatpants on. I'm pretty sure he had no idea what to do right now so he just pulled me close and comforted me. I soon fell asleep and I was finally relaxed for once today.

I woke up the next morning to Andy staring at me in a loving way; some might think that it was creepy but I knew his intentions of making me happy and to love me regardless of what I did were good. I scooted closer to him because I never wanted to get out of bed but I had to when I heard my brother yell 'Breakfast!' I frowned slightly when Andy got out of bed, pulling me with him. I walked into the bathroom that was between the living room and kitchen to grab my meds, which I hated taking, and walked into the kitchen swallowing the pills before drinking some water. When I turned around from the sink I saw everyone sitting at the long table eating pancakes. I glanced over to Ashley and I couldn't help but laugh at him because he was wearing my mom's 'Hot Mama' apron that was covered in cheetah print. I doubled over in a fit of laughter and tried my hardest not to make any mean comments until I got my food. "I made you your favorite breakfast to make up for last night." Ashley grinned as I sat down next to Andy. Ash quickly pecked my cheek before setting a plate of pumpkin pancakes in front of me with whipped cream and cinnamon sugar dusted on top of them. I had a huge grin on my face but not because of the pancakes but because of what Ashley had on. "You in my mom's apron is an apology within itself." I giggled. I got up to get a fork for my unbelievably delicious looking pancakes and hurried back to my seat. I partially listened to what everyone was talking about while I ate my food but it was mostly technical band stuff that I had no interest in. I then heard them talking about their band rehearsals that they had today and then asked if I wanted to come and undoubtedly I said yes! I quickly finished my breakfast and went to get ready. I grabbed a black v neck tee shirt a pair of light wash skinnies and lay them on my bed before hopping into the shower. I quickly wash my body and hair and jumped out to dry off. I went back into my room with just a towel on and almost fainted again when I saw Andy, Ashley, Vic and Tony just sitting casually on my bed with my laptop. I sighed. I walked to my drawers pulling out a bra and panties before grabbing my clothes from the bed and walking back into the bathroom to get changed. Maybe living with mostly guys wouldn't be such a good idea. I turned on the blow dryer and dried my hair as best I could then applied a thin line of liner. I opened the door to see the same four guys lounging around my room which I, involuntarily, rolled my eyes at the sight. All four looked at me with wide eyes like I had a squirrel or something on my head. I, again, rolled my eyes and left the room. I grabbed my Uggs and a pair of socks and put them on and relaxed until everyone was ready to go. I got into Andy's car with CC and Jinxx and everyone else went with Ashley since he had a large SUV. The way we were going seemed oddly familiar and then it hit me. "We're going up to the meadows? You're rehearsal is at the meadows?!" the only reason I freaked out was because this was the same place Warped was and where I met all of these guys; everyone called Hartford the meadows because that's basically what it was, a meadow. I loved it up there when I had gone to Warped that day and I loved it even more because it held so many amazing memories and a few bad ones but I didn't even care. As we pulled into the car lot I looked around, there wasn't much to see but I still took it all in as if it were the last thing I would ever see. I secretly hoped that we would spend the night up here like we had when Warped Tour was here but I pushed my hopes aside and walked hand-in-hand with Andy to the venue. We walked past the tree where we first kissed and I couldn't help but smile as I thought of that night. I think I pouted slightly because Andy asked me what was wrong and I just pointed to the, now bare, tree. He pulled me back to the tree and looked me in the eyes, "I love you so much, probably more than you'll ever know." And he kissed me; so much passion was held in that one kiss and I never wanted to let him go but we had to once the boys started calling for us to hurry up. I just rolled my eyes then looked up at Andy, we stared at each other for a moment before I winked and sprinted off toward the building. I could hear him catching up to me but I was pretty fast even against him and his gazelle legs. Stopped quickly to avoid running into the closed door and to catch my breath; Andy was soon by my side doing the same. "I beat you!" I managed to get out in between breaths. He just shook his finger in an 'I'll get you' kind of way as we walked into the open arena. I could feel myself skipping a little as we got closer to where the band was, for once I was genuinely happy to be somewhere other than my house. "Took you guys long enough!" Ashley shouted. "Jealous" I questioned while playfully sticking out my tongue. I finally feel like I'm my normal, sarcastic, goofy self; it's good to be back. I sat down in the front row with Tony, Mike and Vic and closed my eyes. I was secretly visualizing I was the only one here to listen to his beautiful voice. I opened my eyes when Vic nudged my shoulder; I made an annoyed groan, I hated when people bring me back to reality. "What Vic?" I said in my sweetest, most sarcastic voice I could muster up. The grin on his face practically said it all. "You want him to serenade you, right?" his smile turned into a devilish smirk and I furiously blushed. I had the urge to slap him playfully but I just nodded a little too eagerly which got a chuckle out of him and Tony who sat on the opposite side of me. I sat back and watched as the boys put on a mild performance for us and I enjoyed every second of it.

**ANDY'S POV**

I sang with all of the passion that had been built up over the past few days; all of it was for Becca. I don't know what I would do if I lost her or even came close to losing her. She had her eyes closed, mouthing the words to 'Youth & Whisky' when I saw Vic bump her arm and say something that made her blush hard. Her face turned bright red and a huge grin formed on her face as she nodded adamantly to what he had said. They all apparently got a laugh out of it and I couldn't help but smile at how cute she was. She looked excited but nervous and embarrassed at the same time and she was just beautiful while she stared intensely at me while I sang. I gave her a little wink which made her blush more than she had before; I felt like I had when I first met her. All the butterflies and emotions came back and I felt like a little kid with his first crush. I was thinking I would stay here tonight with her only for a little while and reminisce on the first day we met; I think she'd like that since we had a little moment at 'our' tree. We finished up our rehearsal and I told the guys I had to talk to them. "I'm gonna stay here for a little while with Becca, if that's okay with you guys." I had a goofy grin on my face but I didn't care. They all said it was fine and after a few inappropriate comments from Ash, we all got off the stage and let Vic, Mike, Tony and Jaime get up and rehearse. I looked around for Becca but I couldn't find her. So I told the guys I'd be right back and I went to look for her.

**Becca's POV**

I got up at the end of 'In the End' to smoke a cigarette and think about a bunch of things that were going through my head. I walked over to the huge set of stairs that I had sat on between shows when I was at WT and remembered sitting with Kenzie and laughing about how beautifully loud the band that was on the stage near us was. I started to freak out when I heard footsteps but calmed down when I saw it was only Andy. "Hey babe, what are you doing?" he said with a grin. I held up my hand which held a cigarette between the fingers. "Care to join me, love?" I felt so corny when we talked like this but I found it cute too. He sat next to me and I handed him a lighter. I lay back on the stairs and looked up at the stars; I was one for nature and taking it all in. I always found myself taking pictures, sketching or even painting different aspects of nature; it was all beautiful to me. "Do you want to stay here for a while? You know, just walk around and talk." Andy asked nervously. "I would! That'd be really nice." I smiled warmly towards him. "We should probably go back though, I promised Tony and Jaime I would pick who was the better guitar player." I laughed knowing they were equally good. I hopped up and grabbed Andy, dragging him back to the arena. I started singing along to 'I'm Low On Gas And You Need A Jacket' (one of my favorites from CWTS) I loved all the songs off Collide With The Sky but this was the first one I heard, and I instantly fell in love. They were just ending the song when we sat down and started to play 'One Hundred Sleepless Nights' and I watch Tony and Jaime throughout so they wouldn't think I wasn't paying attention. I was silently singing along and I saw Vic look over and smile at me like a proud father watching his son hit a homerun ball. They finished and that was it; Tony jumped off the stage and Jaime basically tripped down the small set of stairs as they raced to me to see who had won the prize of 'Best Guitarist' they were both bickering in front of me but I hushed them. "You both tied." I looked at them with a poker face but it was so hard because their faces were priceless. "What?!" they yelled. I was taken back but soon explained. "You both do things I think are weird and personally don't like but you both are amazing guitarist and there is no way I could choose between you. Besides if I said Tony won then Jaime would pull some weird temper tantrum or practical joke and if I said Jaime had won Tony would give me puppy dog eyes and I can't resist those." I smiled at the two boys who bickered a bit until they admitted I was right and walked away still bickering saying one another had won. Everyone was leaving but Andy and I stayed a little behind and when we all got to our respective cars we told them we were staying here for a little while and would be back home in an hour or two. They just smiled and said goodbye. We watched them drive away and as soon as they were out of sight I jumped up to kiss Andy. I was now very excited to see where our little night of romantic reminiscing took us.

A/N** I really liked writing this chapter! I'm more excited for the next one; it should be up by Thursday or Friday. Enjoy (;
