Leaving the cave, going into the unknown

Chapter 57

It was finally the day to leave and too say the morning was hectic would be an understatement. Austin and Val came by at 6am to get us and carpool to the bus pick up which would have been fine if we didn’t forget to set our alarm. If it wasn’t for Dee we would have been even later because for some reason she started to cry at 5:30am waking me up only to discover we were now behind schedule. I woke Alan up and hopped in the shower washing my hair as fast as possible before switching places with him. I ran to get Dee ready; she had this look on her face like she knew she saved the morning by waking us up.

“Okay I think we have everything.” I exhaled out of breath to Alan who was standing beside me at the front door, bags piled around us.

“If we forgot something we can just pick it up on the road don’t worry too much about it. Now Val and Austin are waiting outside so let’s go, you grab the baby I’ll grab the bags.” I chuckled at his calm self and picked Dee up in her car seat. I opened the door to see Val’s car there and her and Austin in a deep conversation. Val couldn’t come because of work and I felt bad that I could go, I knew what it was like to say goodbye and be left behind. Eventually they looked forward to see me so they jumped out of the car and came to my side.

“You all ready for the tour life Alex?” Austin asked while taking Dee from me, as usual.

“I think so I hope we remembered everything though, if not we at least remembered the essentials.” I mumbled

“Don’t worry it’ll be okay all that matters is that you remembered the baby and the boy. You’ve got the baby so where is the boy?” Val said.

“I’m here I’m here don’t worry the boy can remember himself, most of the time. Austin could you help me with the bags.” Alan said coming from inside the house.

“Sure.” Austin replied and handed me Dee back. Val and I started walking to the car to strap the car seat in.

“Are you excited?” Val asked.

“I think I am. Which is quite a weird response to that question, it’s just I hope everything goes as well as Alan hopes. He seems to think it’s going to be this certain thing that he’s been picturing for months and I’m worried that once we get on the road he’s going to be disappointed in what’s really happening.” I clipped in the last strap before turning around to face her.

“I think you’re over reacting about it, Alan and the guys are just excited because they’ve never had a baby on tour. Plus if you get really really really sick of them just come home or I’ll see if I can come out for a couple of days. You’ve always been honest with Alan about situations and problems that come up so just keeping doing that throughout the tour.” She ended her words with a hug then whispered in my ear.

“I’m really going to miss you and my new little buddy.”

“We’re really gonna miss you too.” I pulled back to look at her. It was weird looking at Val and thinking how far we’ve come as friends. A year ago it was Kate and I against the world and no one could come between that. But now Kate was busy planning a wedding and I was busy caring for a baby, it’s crazy how lives can change so fast. I still talked to Kate almost 3 times a week, usually about wedding details seeing as I was still the maid of honor but it wasn’t what it used to be. I saw Tom more than I saw her and it had become a normalcy in my mind something that I never thought would happen. It was like one of those strange dreams you have about a future that you just can’t see happening but then it does and it doesn’t faze you. Part of me worried about it not effecting me as much as I thought it should, but the other part of me felt like this was the next step in growing up, learning to live and let go. I think I first noticed this change when we decided to make Austin and Val the godparents. Before I met Alan I always thought Kate would end up with that job but after getting to know Austin and Val I knew it had to be them.

“We’ll Skype all the time okay? I need my Dee time it’s very important.” She joked before the boys came back with the bags to join us. We all got into the car and started out to the bus. Dee was looking all around and grabbing at nothing, her way of showing that she was excited.

“Well at least one of us is ready for tour, it’s like she knows.” Alan said.

“She did wake us up this morning, maybe she’s a little rock star at heart. You better watch out that she doesn’t try and take your job.” I said while raising my eyebrows back at him.

“I already know she’s going to be better than me in everything what’s one more thing. What ever she ends up being she’ll be amazing at because she had an amazing mom.” He took my hand and kissed it.

“Not that this isn’t a super cute moment and I hate to ruin it but we’re here. You guys can be all lovey dovey later.” Austin wined from the front. I looked out the window and saw a huge bus waiting for us. I got Dee out of her car seat and went straight inside to see the rest of the guys already there. Dee was fusing out of my hands wanting to crawl around and explore but knowing it wasn’t baby proofed yet I went against it. Instead I took her into each room, which seemed to be good enough for now but soon she would be chomping at this bit.

“Welcome to your new home little one, let’s get comfy.”
