Knives & Pens

"Do you want to do the baby shower on a Friday, Saturday or Sunday?" Ella asked Pandora, once Pandora got off work she called Ella and Brittan over to help her continue planning. She couldn't get a hold of Sammi, she guessed Sammi was too busy or something.
"What about Saturday?"
"Sounds good, this Saturday?" Ella said, writing the date down. She had a clipboard and every decision Pandora made, she wrote down.
"Yes, this Saturday." Pandora replied.
"What time?" Ella asked her, looking at her with a smile.
"Um, maybe sometime during the afternoon. Two or three?"
"I say three." Ella said, writing down the time.
"Sounds good to me." Pandora said, Ella smiled bigger.
"Okay, invitations or text messages?" Ella asked, Pandora thought for a few seconds.
"Invitations."
"I can do the invitations." Brittan said, raising her hand as if she was in school and needed to ask a question.
"Okay then that will be your job Brittan, now what about the food?" Ella said, the girls were in thought when Pandora got an idea.
"What about finger-food?"
"I like that idea, maybe chips and dip, a fruit tray, a vegetable tray?" Brittan said, Ella nodded and wrote that down as well.
"I'll look up some baby shower games tonight we can play, is there anything else you want Pandora?"
"Not that I can think of." Pandora replied, Ella smiled.
"Ella, can I borrow your clipboard?" Brittan asked, she handed over the clipboard and pen and Brittan took it. "Now, we'll work on the inviting list."
Pandora sighed softly and smiled.
"Okay, I want the guys to come."
"Okay so Jake and Ella, me and CC, Jinxx and Sammi, Andy and his new girlfriend, and Ashley." Brittan said, writing the names down.
"Yep, and Collin and his parents and sister."
"What are their names?" Brittan asked.
"Albert, Daphne and his little sister Jackie."
"Okay, who else?" Brittan asked.
"Chris and Amy."
"Anyone else?" Brittan asked, Pandora giggled and shook her head side to side.
"Nope, that's all I know who to invite."
"Okay, I will work on the invitations tonight and I might be calling for addresses."
"Planning this baby shower makes me want to be pregnant." Ella said with a serious tone, then she giggled.
"Tell Jake to get busy then!" Brittan said, Ella blushed and smiled.
"We're not ready for kids yet, with the band and my modeling career, we don't have time."
"True." Pandora agreed.
"But maybe one day."
"I'm sure you two will one day." Pandora told Ella, she nodded and smiled. Pandora couldn't believe they were already planning the baby shower, everything was going so fast it seemed, Pandora was becoming even more apprehensive every single day. The front door suddenly opened and the house was immediately loud with voices and laughter, CC came into the living room and took a quick kiss from Brittan as Jake took a kiss from Ella.
"How was the studio?" Pandora asked Andy.
"Great, the album is almost finished."
"Are you excited?" Jake asked with a smile.
"Very excited." Pandora replied.
"She's been driving me insane." Andy mumbled, making the boys laugh.
"What are you girls up to?" Ashley asked, Pandora was still a little mad at him but he knew things will cool down.
"Working on the baby shower." Ella replied for Pandora.
"Jinxx, I keep trying to call Sammi but she won't answer my calls?"
"Don't take it too personal Pandora," Jinxx told her. "We've been arguing lately, I doubt we'll be able to fix this.."
The room was silent, they felt sympathy for Jinxx.
"I'm sorry Jinxx."
Jinxx smiled, trying to show them all he was okay.
"Pandora, can we talk in private real quick?" Ashley asked, Andy looked at him while the others did too.
"No." Jake replied for Pandora.
"Yeah, what happened the last time you two were private? You got her pregnant!" CC hissed.
"Whatever you have to say you can say in front of all of us." Andy said.
"I agree with Biersack."
Ashley sighed and decided to ignore the guys, he looked at Pandora with pleading eyes.
"Please?"
Pandora nodded and started to lift up, she fixed her shirt once she stood on her feet then she followed Ashley to the front door. Ashley opened the door for her and she stepped out into the hot air, growing curious of what he wanted to say.
"I'm watching you Purdy!" Jake yelled before Ashley closed the door, he turned around to see Pandora with her arms crossed over her chest, looking unhappy.
"I'm sorry about how I acted after we left the hospital." Ashley apologized.
"Are you?"
"Yes I am, I just," Ashley said then paused, he looked like he couldn't find the words. then he sighed loudly and stepped forward a few inches. "I'm afraid, okay?"
Pandora uncrossed her arms then looked at him curiously. "Afraid of what, Ash?"
"That Collin will be a better father to Skye than I will be," Ashley replied and before Pandora could reply he continued. "I know he's not the stepfather nor the father, but I feel like he's trying to act like the father to make you feel better. And I'm afraid Skye would rather have him as a father than me when she gets older, I'm afraid Pandora, this is a huge step for me and I feel like I will blow it."
"Ashley, you will be a perfect father. Whether you're there every single second or every day, she will love you no matter what. Skye won't choose Collin over you, you're her father and she will know that no matter how much like a daughter Collin will treat her. I know you are scared, believe me, I am too. But we can do this Ash, you just have to believe in yourself." Pandora told him, Ashley nodded and took a deep breath.
"I'm sorry, I'm just nervous."
"Don't be sorry, I know how you feel." Pandora told him.
"I was going to ask real quick, how would you feel if I told the Black Veil Brides Army members I'm going to be a dad?"
"I think it's time to tell them." Pandora said with a giggle.
"Me too, so are we good now?"
Pandora nodded. "Yes, we're good."
"Hug?"
She nodded and held out her arms when he hugged her, the guys and girls awed once they hugged, since they were all looking out the window.
"So cute." Ella said.
"Let's not ship them, okay?" Jinxx said.
"Agreed." Andy said with a chuckle.

Killer and Tokyo barked excitedly at Ashley as he walked into his house, he smiled then headed into the living room and turned on the lights. He took out his wallet and laid it down on the coffee table beside his keys, then sat down on the couch and flipped on the TV. He grabbed his Iphone and went to his Twitter page, ready to post the secret he had been hiding for eight months.


Ashley Purdy: Dear BVBArmy, I have some news for you all. I am going to be a father in a month! Yes, I will be a father. You read right. It's a girl and her name will be Skye Ashleigh, I'm excited and I hope you guys are too. Wish me luck on being a father! (I'll need it.)


He posted it and smiled, he felt proud of becoming a father. Very proud actually.

Notes

Yes guys, the baby shower is getting closer! I have already written that chapter, but it will be a while before me and my fiance edits it but it will be posted soon. Also, I might be publishing another story after this story ends called; Sweet Blasphemy. (My favorite song on We Stitch These Wounds, well it's tied with We Stitch These Wounds.) I have to rewrite the story though, so don't expect it to be published quickly. Okay? Okay. Leave comments and opinions! Love reading comments for some reason, I dunno why. I also found out the date I wrote this story, September 22 2013, that was a long time ago! Oh my god, it is going to be so saddening to end this story.
