"Muma, where are we going?" Luna said from the backseat of my car.

"To visit your uncles baby" I turned into a huge parking lot that was filled with tour busses, parking behind the big blue one with a mustache on the front.

I got out of the car and opened the door for Luna. She jumped out and wrapped her fingers around two of my own as we walked around to the door of the bus. There was a little paper taped to the door of the bus.

Hey Vicky!
Our set got pushed up an hour, so when you get here we'll probably be walking on stage. Just go to the left of the stage, tell security who you are, and they'll let you right in. Bring Luna too! I want her to see us play!
Love, Tone

"Muma lemme read!" Luna snatched the paper from my hands and stared at it intently. "It says that we have to meet mis tios on a stage?" She said.

"That's right baby! You're such a good reader!" I smiled and kissed her cheek. "Come on boo, I have to carry you to the stage so I dont lose you!"

I picked Luna up and placed her on my hip while I walked through the sea of people. I got a few stares, probably from jealous fans or people who thought I brought my kid to warped tour for fun. I was barely comfortable with bringing her to see the guys for a bit.

"Victoria!"

I spun around to see the face of the girl I had tattooed forget regret on a few years back.

"Hey! Luna, right?" I smiled at her.

"Yes! I can't believe you remember-" She began.

"No, muma, I'm Luna." My daughter said poking her own chest.

"Yes you are baby, but her name has been Luna much longer then yours" I explained. She just pouted and crossed her arms over her chest.

"Is this?.." Luna trailed off eyeing my daughter.

"It is! Luna Alexandria Fuentes. Baby be nice, Luna is one of mommy's friends" I ran my free hand over her cheek and she looked up at the woman.

"Hello Luna, I like your name." She giggled.

"Well thank you! I like yours too! Does daddy tell you La Luna sólo que veo like your mommy told me he would?" She asked the almost five year old that rested in my arms.

"La Luna sólo que veo?" Lulu thought for a bit, scrunching up her face as she did. "Yeah, he used to, but I don't see daddy anymore"

"Oh really?" Luna looked at me with concern in her eyes, as if asking what happened.

"I've gotta get to the stage before Tony kills me for not being there. DM me your number on twitter and I'll explain it to you later"

"Alright, bye you two! Be good for mommy Luna!" She waved at us.

"Bye big Luna!" Lulu shouted at her.

I walked towards the stage again until I was stopped by security, who let me pass after I told them my name. When I got to the side of the stage I placed Luna down and held her hand so she wouldn't run off. That lasted about five seconds.

"Muma look! Tio Tortuga! And Tio Hi-May! And Tio Vic!" She screamed and ran onto the stage, her reddish-brown curls bouncing up and down as she did. I shook my head and covered my face.

"Everyone say hello to my beautiful niece, Luna!" Vic shouted into his mic. The crowd cheered and I heard a ring of awe's going through. She tugged on Vic's pant leg and he kneeled down as she spoke to him.

"Luna!" I called out as I walked across the stage to her.

"Muma, I just wanted to say hi to mis tios" She put out her bottom lip and swayed her body.

"Okay, fine" I sighed. "Vic I'm so sorry about her I don't know-"

"Don't sweat it Vicky, we love her more then the world." He smiled shaking his head. "Look"

He nodded in the direction opposite of where I was facing. The crowd erupted into a chorus of awe's again. I spun around and saw Mike standing center stage with Luna in his arms. He was squeezing her so tight that I swear her head should have popped off. I saw tears sliding down his cheeks. He was crying. Mike was crying. He had to remember something. I watched Casey take a seat behind Mike's drumset and start playing out the rest of the set. I followed Mike to the side of the stage where he placed Luna down and crouched in front of her.

"I love you so much Lulu. I'm so sorry I haven't been around. I'll be there from now on baby" He said to her. I stood next to them, shifting between my feet nervously. Mike hugged Luna close and let her go after a few seconds, looking up at me after. "Hey" He choked out as he wiped tears from his eyes.

"Hey" I answered over the music.

"You wanna go grab something to eat?" He asked, picking up Luna as he stood. He held our daughters hands as she sat on his shoulders.

"Y-yeah" I mumbled.

"Luna, you said I make loud noises with your tios?" Mike laughed biting a fry.

"Yes Poppa, and I told them that Muma hurts people and colors on them. But I'm gonna have a new teacher next year so then I have to tell them again." She rolled her eyes as she said the last part of her sentence.

"But Luna don't you want people to know what mommy and daddy do?" Mike laughed, wiping ketchup from Luna's cheek.

I just sat in awe watching the two of them interact as if he didn't pick up and leave us nine months ago. His callused, tattooed hands reached for another french fry in his plate and placed it in his mouth. Luna smiled up at him like he was a million bucks. She needed her father, something she hadn't had in almost eleven months.

"Muma, Poppa's coming to my birthday party right?" she turned and looked at me from across the table. "Hello Muma!" she waved her hand in my face.

"Luna! What have I told you about waving you hands in your mothers face?" Mike scolded her. I smiled softly. He did remember.

"Lulu, I don't know if daddy can make it, he's still gonna be on tour."

"Poppa, it's on my birthday. You're not gonna be there on my birthday?" she frowned.

He looked like he was going to cry. Like someone had just ripped his heart out and put it on a plate in front of him. He was at a loss of words and I knew it.

"Baby, he'll try." I smiled over to her.

~

"Victoria I don't know what to say..." Mike rubbed the back of his neck while I leaned against my car.

"Are you actually gonna come to her birthday? It's the last day of warped." I said. I wasn't going to be nice to him when I didn't have to. It was only for Luna's sake that I had been all day.

"I want to so bad, but I don't know if I'll be able to." He looked down at his hands while he spoke. "I wanted to apologize for what I said to you.."

"You're gonna have to be a little more specific Mike. You said a lot of fucked up shit to me."

"I know!" he shouted then glanced at Luna sleeping in her carseat. "I know..."

"Well Mike I don't-"

"Everything. I fucking regret everything. All the shit I said, leaving, moving in with Marilese. All of it. I fucking hate myself for believing her when she said that Luna and Anni weren't mine. Do you realize how much I hurt when I remembered. Jesus Christ. I sat in my bunk for days. I only left to play. We lost Anni Victoria. He's gone..." he pulled on his bottom lip ring and I saw a tear fall from his eye.

"Mikey..." I sighed and wrapped my arms around his torso, resting my head against his chest.

"I love you so fucking much. I can't remember everything but I remember that." he buried his face into my neck and started crying.

"Mike, I love you. I do. But baby, I can't just open up that easy anymore. I want to so bad, but I just can't. I need to take it slow." I whispered to him. I felt him nod.

"Victoria I'm so fucking sorry. I don't care how long it takes. I need you. I love you."

"Stop it I'm gonna cry." I laughed quietly after separating from him.

"I'm already crying!" he laughed back. My lip started trembling and I felt my own tears falling over my cheeks. "Bubby no don't cry." he whispered leaning down and cupping my face in his hands. His thumbs wiped away my tears and he stared into my eyes.

"Mike I-"

"Shhh" He leaned forward and press his lips against mine. I started crying even harder. "Don't cry." he mumbled against my lips before kissing me again. "No crying."

"I love you Michael. So much." I cried.

"I love you too Bubby. I always will." he kissed me again, but this time the kiss was filled with passion and hunger. My arms snaked around his neck and my body pressed against his. When we pulled apart our foreheads pressed together.

"I have to go. I have work tomorrow." I said. Mike frowned but let go of my waist. I made my way to the opposite side of the car and got in, rolling the window down after I started it.

"Call me when you get home. Just so I know you made it there." Mike said leaning on the window.

"I will." I smiled.

"Give Lulu a kiss for me." he smiled before stepping away.

"Hey!" I called out he turned back and waited for me to speak again. "I love you"

A smile broke across his face and I swear he let out a sigh of relief. He walked back to the car and grabbed my face, pulling it towards his out the window. His lips crashed against mine and I felt like my body was going to explode out of pleasure.

"I love you too" he whispered.

I drove off, feeling tears rolling down my cheeks the entire way home. I couldn't tell if it was because I was so happy or if I was just that scared. I had a deadly mixture of the two going on inside of me but I didn't care at the moment.

When I got home I carried Luna up to her room. She stayed sleeping while I changed her into her pajama's and tucked her in. I placed a kiss on her fore head from Mike and one onher cheek from myself. My feet carried me downstairs and out onto the deck where I dialed Mikes number after lighting a cigarette.

"Hello?" his voice was groggy like I had just woken him up.

"Hey, it's me. I just tucked Luna in."

~

"No I remember when we used to do this all the time!" Mike said.

"What? Talk on the phone?" I raised my eyebrows even though he couldnt see me.

"Yeah. I remember one night in high school it was really nice out and we both had our windows open. I said something and you started laughing hysterically and I could hear you laughing from your room." He laughed.

"Yeah. If we weren't sleeping at each others house we stayed on the phone until we passed out."

"What took us so long?" Mike's voice came out as a whisper.

"With what?"

"Falling in love with each other. It was always there. Everyone saw it but us."

I laughed. "I remember one day Casey and I were walking to first period and he just goes 'he likes you ya know' I told him he was crazy."

"Vic used to ask me when I was going to propose." I could practically hear his smile over the phone. I watched as the sky turned from black to a deep purple as we both grew silent. "What are you doing right now?"

"Watching the sun rise on the deck."

"Good. I'm watching it from the top of the bus."

"I love you Michael." I whispered.

"I love you more Victoria."
