Leaving the cave, going into the unknown

Chapter 41

I spent the next week mostly in bed, the first 3 days because I was still out of it from my near fainting spell and the other days just out of pure laziness. I continued working from the comforts of my bedroom and decided that today was the day I was going to finish my last painting.

I rolled out of bed, quite literally, and shuffled my way over to the baby’s room. I was home alone but Kate would be stopping by at lunchtime to hang out, we hadn’t seen each other in a while and I was missing her more than ever now. I sat down in in painting station I had set up and stared at the crib and other paintings, I wasn’t quite sure where to go next. I finally decided on the night sky as the other paintings back drop were a deep deep blue. I got to work immediately putting some Of Mice & Men on in the background, when the boys are on tour I try and play their music as much as possible. The baby was going to have to deal with their music for a long time so she might as well start loving it now.

Soon enough my phone went off beside me, it was Kate calling.

“Hey I’m at the front door and I’m coming in ok?” She asked.

“Yup. I’m in the baby’s room.” With that I hung up and started to put the paints away. Since the accident I was ski dish with people, even if they had keys, just walking into the house so they usually called before entering. I heard footsteps coming up the stairs and soon enough Kate came through the door, she must have just come from a shoot because she was in full makeup with beautiful long curls cascading down.

“Hey. Did you just get off work?” I asked, getting up slowly and putting the now finished canvas next to the others and taking a moment to look at them. It wasn’t what I originally wanted for the room but I guess I’d have to paint a mural at some other point in her life.

“Ya I had a big one with Guess today. I love the paintings Alex, and so will Dee.” Kate also now knew our little ones name; she overheard Alan and I talking but promised not to tell anyone. Tom would bug her everyday to see if she would spill the beans but I think she enjoyed teasing him.

“I hope so, but than again she’ll be a baby and probably won’t understand it. I know when she gets older so will though, my mom used to have these little cartoon paintings that she had made for me and I loved those until she sold them.” The second I moved out it was as if I was being pushed out of the family, they sold every childhood thing I left behind. They really didn’t support my decisions in life, they hated that I didn’t go to college and that I stretched my ears and got tattoos. I grew to know it but I was afraid that when Melody grew up she would be confused as to why her grandparents weren’t around. As much as I hated that they weren’t there for me how could they abandon someone that they’re supposed to love unconditionally and wasn’t even born yet. When I imagined having a baby as a little girl I saw my mom and I going shopping for baby clothes and her helping me when the baby got there, not ignoring me and dismissing all of my decisions.

“I brought lunch so come on, downstairs we go.” She grabbed my arm and helped me down the stairs; it was getting difficult, as I couldn’t see my feet anymore. I smelt the heavenly sent of Chinese coming from the kitchen and I started to walk a little faster and Melody kicked a little, my love of Chinese was already rubbing off on her.

“Whoa slow down Mama it’ll still be there it’s not going anywhere.” I laughed and sat down while she put some food on my plate, I dove in right away.

“Look I wasn’t supposed to tell you this but I can’t help it and I’m terrible at keeping secrets.” I looked up at here with daggers. “Except your baby’s name, I won’t tell a soul.” I nodded and started eating again.

“Alan called me asking to set up a little get together for when they come back, nothing fancy or big just low key. He also said not to tell you and when I asked what it was all about he said ‘I can’t tell you because you have a big mouth and will tell Alex’ which I guess in the end was true. Still what do you think it could be about?” I pulled the very ends of my brain apart trying to come up with why Alan would feel the need to throw a surprise get together for me. It wasn’t near my birthday or any anniversary, and we already had the baby shower.

“I honestly have no clue what he could be planning, but than again half the time I have no clue what goes on in that head of his. I’m sure it’s just an end of tour party and he doesn’t want me to know because he knows I will want to help and it’ll put added stress on me. Don’t worry though I won’t help, I’ll leave it all up to you this time.” I said as I finished off my food feeling happy, a kick from Melody signaling that she too was very happy with Kate’s choice of food.

“Whatever you say is it cool if I crash here tonight? Tom’s staying late at the office and I don’t like being alone after dark in the house.” Kate had moved out of our old house and into Tom’s, we split the money 50/50 for the sale and that helped with all the medical bills plus some extra baby stuff. She feels safer now that she’s not alone in a big house, even with Jason in jail it still freaks her out.

“Ya no problem, I’m afraid you’d have to take the couch though because Val is in the guest room.”

“Not a problem, here give me the dishes I’ll wash them.” She said and took my plate to the sink. I knew deep down that this party wasn’t just a get back from tour reunion, he was planning something but I couldn’t figure out what.
