Between The Roses

A million and one thoughts rushed in and out of my head as I followed Callum down to the cars. He knew about Zara’s drug problem and did nothing to stop it? That is not the kind of person Callum has ever been, and it confuses me as to why he would keep that from everyone.

“Wait, Callum,” I called out to him and stopped walking. Callum sighed before stopping and turning around to face me.

“What?” He asked.

“When did you find out that Zara was doing drugs?” I asked and he sighed again before looking at the ground.

“About a year ago. She told me that she had it under control and that to not tell anyone,” he shrugged and I furrowed my eyebrows and crossed my arms.

“And you listened? She had a problem Cal, you don’t just keep that from people. She was being erratic and unreasonable to people while on tour and while recording. Everyone wondered why,” I spoke to him in both a confused voice and an irritated voice.

“Well Sadee, while you and Andy were in your newlywed bubble, Zara and I became close. She has told me things she probably hasn’t told you. So, yes, I kept it from you and the band. I did it because my our bandmate, your supposed friend, needed someone to confide in and you weren’t there,” he practically yelled back.

“I’m sorry I got married and was finally happy for once in my fucking life!” I screamed at him and then felt a sharp pain in my abdomen. Shit.

“Whatever, I’m going to take a few weeks off and I’ll think about coming back,” he sighed and climbed into his car and left. I stood there, another sharp pain hitting me. This time I winced. I’m not supposed to be getting stressed, my doctor told me that.

“Hey Brett,” I called out and he turned to me.

“You okay there?” He asked after seeing my face.

“I don’t feel well. Can you drive me home?” I asked and he nodded.

“Of course. Hop on in,” he smiled and I nodded before walking over and climbing in. The sharp pains were gone after I sat down but I still felt sick and not quite right.

“That’s crazy that Callum knew about Zara the whole time,” Brett spoke up after a while of driving.

“Yeah,” I muttered and leaned my head back and closed my eyes. Brett continued to drive and was silent, it was as if he knew I really wasn’t feeling well and he decided to give me space. We soon pulled up to the house and I felt the car stop.

“Do you need me to walk you in, or do you got it?” He asked and I shook my head.

“I got it. Thanks for the ride,” I smiled at him as I unbuckled and climbed out of the car. As I walked towards the front door I suddenly felt tired and still really sick and nauseated. I need to lay down. When I walked into the house, I heard the TV making noise and as I walked into the living room, I saw Andy laying out on the couch watching American Horror Story reruns. I set my bag on the floor and took a deep breath.

“How did the meeting go?” He asked as he continued to watch the TV.

“I think Matt’s going to get fired,” I spoke softly but still tried to sound normal. Andy heard the waver in my voice and leaned up to look at me.

“What’s wrong?” He immediately stood up and walked over to me.

“I might have yelled at Callum and probably got too stressed or whatever and now I feel like absolute shit. Brett had to give me a ride home,” I told him with a sigh and he put both hands on my shoulders. He then looked into my eyes.

“What happened?” He asked.

“With Callum or me?” I asked.

“You,” he responded and I sighed.

“I felt some weird sharp pains but they went away and now I feel tired and queasy and sore,” I explained and he nodded.

“Well, then tonight we are going to just relax on the couch and watch reruns or Netflix,” he told me as we walked into the living room and sat down on the couch.

“Sounds like a really nice plan to me,” I smiled as I shifted so I was leaning against the arm of the couch but had my legs extended over the couch. Andy did the same on the other end of the couch.

“So my parent’s fly in tomorrow,” Andy said suddenly and I chuckled.

“They do,” I responded as I leaned over on the couch and closed my eyes. Today was a long day and I am ready for bed.

The Next Day
------------------

Sitting in airports had never been something I enjoyed. The act of waiting for a plane to land so you can board it or waiting for a plane to land meet up with family. Either way, sitting in those plastic chairs in the terminal waiting area was uncomfortable and not enjoyable, but being pregnant makes it ten times worse. I shifted in my seat once again and rested my head on Andy’s shoulder. All night I had intense nausea and was throwing up frequently. This morning I next to no voice and was extremely sore in my chest, from throwing up. Andy was worried and told me he thought I should go to the hospital to see if everything is okay, but I told him it was fine and that I would take it easy for a few days. If after a few days the nausea and the soreness is still there, then I will go to the doctor.

Andy switched his leg position and wrapped his arm around my shoulders. Both of us hate waiting, but we do it all the time. Then up on the flight board we heard that Andy’s parents plane landed and the passengers were getting off and coming inside. A sigh left both my chest and Andy’s as we stood up and began walking to the gate door to wait for them. When we stopped walking, I wrapped my arm around his waist and rested my head on his shoulder.

“How’re you feeling?” I heard Andy ask me quietly.

“Tired,” I shrugged and he chuckled.

“You were up for most of the night in the bathroom, so, that is understandable,” he chuckled again and cleared his throat. “Do you think you’ll be ready to go shopping with my mom later?”

“Yeah, I’ll be fine,” I told him and then we both got quiet again. While standing there, I got to thinking about Callum and Zara. They had this secret for over a year and told no one. I don’t know if I can trust either one of them anymore and that breaks my heart because both of them were my best friends. If I can’t trust them, how can we be a band?

As a tear fell down my cheek I immediately wiped it away and stopped thinking about it. When I focused on the opening to the gate, I watched as both Chris and Amy walked through and spotted us. Two smiles appeared on their faces as they came rushing towards us. When they got to us, Amy immediately wrapped her arms around me and kissed the side of my head.

“How are you doing honey?” She asked me and I smiled.

“Um, pretty terrible actually,” I chuckled and her face switched from happy to worried.

“What do you mean?” She asked.

“She was up most of the night throwing up and is extremely tired today,” Andy answered for me and I smiled.

“Oh sweetie. We can postpone shopping until tomorrow if you would like,” she told me and I shook my head.

“It’s fine. We can still go shopping. I’m excited to go shopping for baby stuff,” I smiled and she chuckled.

“Alrighty then. Why don’t we go get our bags and head to your guys’ house?” She suggested and the four of us made our way to the baggage claim.

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

Once back at the house, Andy and his dad went off to talk about whatever it is that they talk about while Amy and I sat at the kitchen island to talk.

“So, what are you having?” She asked me. The two of us each had a cup of tea in front of us as we talked.

“A boy,” I smiled and she chuckled.

“Well that little boy has Biersack blood in him, you and Andy are in for a handful,” she laughed and I smiled.

“I’m ready for it,” I said and she patted my shoulder.

“Do you and Andy have any names picked out yet or are you waiting?” She asked.

“Well, we haven’t actually talked talked about names yet. I’ve mentioned it a few times but Andy has sorta just waved it off for another time. I like the name Lincoln, but that is just my opinion,” I shrugged and she smiled.

“He has always been that way. He’ll come around, I promise. Are you going to have a baby shower?” She asked and I nodded.

“My sister, Lettie, and Za-” I paused and looked at my tea. “My sister and Lettie are going to plan one for me.”

“Is everything okay?” She asked.

“Not really. Two of my best friends were lying to me about something important for over a year,” I said and she sighed.

“Maybe they aren’t meant to be your best friends,” she said and I shrugged.

“I don’t know. But, yes, there will be a baby shower eventually,” I told her and she nodded.

“Okay, how far along are you?” She asked and I thought for a second.

“About 19 weeks,” I answered and she nodded.

“Well, we could go out and pick up some furniture, i.e. the changing table, a dresser, a shelving unit, a rocker, etc.,” she suggested and I nodded.

“That sounds perfect. But I think we should go ask Andy what kind of crib he bought,” I told her and she chuckled as we stood and made our way to the living room. As the weeks go by, I am getting more and more excited to be a mom, but going shopping with Amy was going to be the icing on the cake most definitely. My mom would never do this with me, she’d be more worried about hers and what’s his faces adopted daughter that I have no interest in meeting.

Notes

Good evening my readers, how did you like the chapter? You got a little taste of a name I am thinking of naming Baby Biersack, Sadee began to rethink her friendships with both Zara and Callum, and she had a nice talk with Andy's mom. I think it's a real nice chapter!

Next chapter will include Sadee confronting both Callum and Zara about the two's year long secret. And you'll possibly get to meet Lake, Cal's girlfriend.

Until next time!
