Dess could only smile as she scrolled through her Twitter, but soon her smile turned into a slight frown. Nice comments were coming from family and friends-of course-but from fans…it only got uglier and uglier. People saying it wasn’t true-well then that’s a pretty big lie- and of course there were the people who were saying that she only got pregnant to keep Andy in her life. Dess only shook her head as she closed out of her app and set her phone on her outstretched thigh. The guys were all sitting around playing some video game and hanging out as the bus travelled to their next stop.

They had been on tour for five days and Dess was pretty sure they were getting close to being in Washington state. Andy was happily sitting beside her, his eyes trained on the television but he was absentmindedly running his fingers over her out stretched arm softly. Should she tell him about Twitter? He was going to find out sooner or later since most of the fans had tweeted at the both of them their displeasure. Dess just couldn’t understand why the fans would think she was lying. Or why they would think that Dess would only get pregnant to keep Andy around.

This baby had been a shock-to everyone and Dess certainly would never get pregnant just to keep a man in her life. Was this really what the fans thought about her-that she was some clingy girl who just got lucky and whose luck was running out? Dess sighed, running a hand through her blonde hair as she looked over to where Andy was sitting. CC had gotten him hooked on Grand Theft Auto…whatever number they were on and Dess knew that he would be kept entertained for hours. Maybe she should go take a nap? She had been feeling really tired lately, but she knew that that was normal for someone who was four months pregnant.

As Dess scanned her eyes over the room, she stopped on where CC was sitting in one of the recliners, a book in his hands and he seemed to be intensely focused on what he was reading. She smirked-CC never read and so it was odd to see him with a book in his hands and as she stared at the cover, Dess felt her eyes grow wide and her mouth drop open. He wasn’t just reading any book-he was reading one of her books and suddenly Dess was trying to hold back her laughter as she just looked over at the drummer as he read on.


“Uh CC…” Dess said, the laughter and confusion in her voice and CC only grunted as he looked up at her from his reading and then looked back down once again.

“Yeah…” He said and Dess only smirked as she got off the couch, Andy watching her out of the corner of his eye. He looked towards CC, pausing the game as he nudged Ashley and nodded his head towards their drummer and best friend.

“Whatcha reading there buddy?” Dess asked as she approached him and CC only sighed as he put the book down and looked up at Dess. His face held an innocent smirk on his lips and CC only placed the book in his lap and folded his hands on top of the cover.

“A book.” CC said innocently and in that instant he knew he was caught. He tried to hide the book with his hands, but Dess only laughed as she bent down and grabbed for the book that was resting on his crossed legs.

“I see that it’s a book, but why are you reading my What To Expect When You’re Expecting book?” Dess laughed and CC only grumbled as he closed the book in his lap and set it on the table next to him. Andy and Ashley were both trying not to laugh and Jake was biting down on his knuckles to try and stifle his own laughter.

“I want to know what to expect!” CC said as he stood up and walked towards the fridge. He pulled out a Monster, cracking open the top as he chugged a little bit of it and then set it down on the kitchen table.

“Uh-you aren’t the one expecting here man…” Andy said as he came up from behind Dess, his chin resting on her shoulder while his hands wrapped around her waist and rested against her growing belly.


Andy had become fascinated with her stomach and Dess found it both cute and slightly irritating. They would be laying in bed, her feet in the air to prevent swelling and Andy would be next to her reading a book or watching television when all of a sudden he would lift up her shirt and place his hands against her skin. He would get this really excited look on his face-his blue eyes growing wide as he rubbed his fingers against her stretching skin. It felt good and in that instance Dess loved it.

What she did not love was when they were at a venue and she would be talking to someone-be it a crew member, a member of Bullet or even a complete stranger who liked her shirts-and Andy would come up behind her, lift her shirt up to expose her stomach and show her off. Like she was a prized horse or something. Dess knew that it was just his excitement and that he couldn’t believe that he was going to be a father, but she still had a long way to go and not everyone in the world needed to see her stomach. They had just done their announcement photo shoot the day before and while Dess loved the pictures, she kind of wished that they could have kept this to themselves instead of doing a two page spread in AP magazine about it.

The shoot consisted of she and Andy standing infront of a black backdrop, with Dess being topless, but her hair had been given extensions so that her more private parts were covered. Andy stood behind her, one arm wrapped around her neck as her fingers clutched at his skin and his other arm was snaked around her stomach with his hand holding a very tiny Black Veil Brides shirt over her exposed belly. She was looking up at him and Andy was looking straight at the camera.

There was also another picture-this one Dess loved more than anything-where she was standing, still topless, but Andy was kneeling before her, his bare chest and tattoos shining under the harsh lights. His hands were resting on either side of her stomach and he was smiling up at her as she looked lovingly down at him. She hated the publicity of it all, but on the plus side they would have two very awesome photos to hang in the baby’s room when the time came. Dess looked at CC and could only smile. All of the guys were being so wonderful about all of this and she was grateful to them all.


“Oh? And what are you expecting?” Dess asked, cocking an eyebrow as she crossed her arms over her chest and looked down at the drummer. CC had taken his seat once again and had picked up her book, cracking it open to the spot that he had left off.

“Well for one thing I’m going to start avoiding you like the plague once your hormones start kicking in.” CC smiled up at her and Dess only shook her head as she moved back towards the couch and sat down. She arched her back, a grimace on her face as Andy sat down next to her and gave her a concerned look.

“You okay babe?” He asked and Dess only nodded as she rotated her neck to crack it and then focused on the television. Andy’s eyes were still on her though and Dess only grinned at him as she faced him and stuck her tongue out.

“Yeah-your child is just making my back sore…” Dess said and Andy only smiled at her as he grabbed for one of her bare feet and began to rub her skin. He had been really great-not that he wasn’t normally-and Dess couldn’t imagine doing this with anyone else.

“When will you know what you’re having?” Jake asked from the other recliner and Dess only smiled. She had her first appointment in a week and she was hoping that maybe they would be able to tell her what this baby was going to be.

“I might find out at my appointment next week, but it may still be too soon to tell. They will, however, be able to tell how many little peanuts are floating around in here…” She laughed so hard she snorted as Dess looked at Andy and saw that his eyes had become saucer like. He looked from her face, down to her stomach and then back up.

“E-excuse me?” He asked as he stopped rubbing her feet and pulled away from her slightly. Dess was laughing so hard that she could barely breathe and Ashley seemed to be having the same problem.

“Twins run in my family babe-I told you my dad was a twin, along with my grandmother on his side and her father before that. We may have two buns baking in this here oven. But I won’t know until I get my ultrasound…” Dess said, finally she had been able to stop laughing and give him an answer. Andy’s face had gone completely white and he seemed to be having trouble breathing.

“I don’t remember you telling me that babe…” Andy said and Dess only smirked as she leaned forward and ran her fingers through his messy black hair. Andy was letting it grow out in the front, giving him long bangs that constantly got in his face.

“Can…can you tell right now how many are in there?” CC asked with a wide eyed expression on his face. Dess only rolled her eyes-what did they think she was a dog giving birth to a litter of puppies?

“Uh-no. I haven’t felt much movement, but that’s normal. Most babies don’t start moving until the fifth month and that’s still a month off.” Dess said and CC’s eyes grew even wider as he looked from her face and down towards her belly.

“So-it’s kind of like you have an alien growing inside of you…” CC said and Andy growled lowly, but it was in a playful way and Dess could only giggle softly. The guys were obviously fascinated by her condition and she couldn’t wait until the baby actually did start moving so she could freak them out even more.

“Please do not call my child an alien C…” Andy laughed and the entire room erupted in to loud laughter.


The group all became quieter as they lapsed back into what they had been doing before CC’s question time with Dess. Andy and Ashley were still playing that stupid video game, while Jake sat with his guitar in his hands and was working on some stuff he had going through his head. CC was still reading that book and Dess could only shake her head as she looked up from her sketch pad at the insistent drummer. They were like a small family-all sitting around the living room, hanging out and spending quiet time together. Jinxx was back in his bunk and Dess could hear the soft sounds of violin coming from the bunk hall.

The guitarist had been going through a lot with his divorce from Sammi and Dess felt bad because she was kind of in the middle. She knew Sammi and loved the girl, but she also was close with Jinxx and knew what he was going through as well. Dess only wished that the two could go about this whole thing in a friendlier and more private manner, but that seemed impossible at this juncture. Kit had a new guy, but her bestie wasn’t spilling anything on him as of yet.

Dess looked down at the sketchpad in her hands and smiled. She was supposed to be working on some sketches for DC, but that had quickly turned into doodling, which then turned in to her making a list of names for the baby. She and Andy had been quietly talking about what names they liked, hated and were seriously considering for their first born. Andrew Dennis Junior was out-Andy liked his name of course, but they both wanted something a little more unique.

Moira had been thrown in there, but Dess didn’t want to look at her child and constantly feel sad at the reminder of her beloved little sister. Neither of them liked names like Brittany, Jonathan, Christopher or Amy. But they did like names like Oliver, Reid, Camellia, and Elizabeth. Dess smiled as she looked down, but then her eyes traveled out the window to take in the scenery before her.

They were driving to Spokane and they would be in Washington State for two days before they would head up to Canada. Dess loved traveling, but she was seriously wondering what would happen to her coming on the road once the baby was born. Could she bring a baby on tour? The guys didn’t even know where they would be come the late spring early summer. Dess knew she couldn’t sit at home by herself with a newborn and Andy would absolutely refuse to be away from his child. She smiled-Andy was being so cute about this whole thing and she could tell he was looking forward to meeting their little one more than Dess was.

He kept insisting that they were having a girl-he could just feel it in his soul-and every time they would get in bed he would kiss Dess and then he would lean down and press a kiss to her stomach. Sometimes Dess would wake up to find him with his head resting against her small belly, humming softly and Dess would always get tears in her eyes. Andy Biersack looked like one hardened rockstar, but deep down he was the sweetest and most loving person she had ever known.


“What are you smirking about over there?” He asked her and Dess only smiled more widely as she looked at him and reached for his hand.

“I just love you…” She said simply and Andy only smiled at her gently as he rubbed his thumb across the top of her hand while he gazed at her lovingly.


They had been meant to do this-they had always known that they would be a family and neither one of them could wait until that day came.

Notes

So if you could recommend a baby name to Andy and Dess-what would you suggest?
I have already named the baby, but I'm not telling you what it is or what their name is ; )
