Flinch
Today was the day we started our tour.
I had two hours before I needed to be at the first venue, so I decided to go and see Quinn.
I got there and I was greeted by Fluer.
"Hey Andy. Don't you have a show tonight?" She asked.
I nodded. "Yeah, but I had a little time to kill so I came here."
She nodded back in response.
"Well I've just finished filling her drip so feel free to go right in." She said.
"Thank you." I smiled, then left her.
I walked into Quinn's ward and sat in the normal seat.
"Hey beautiful. It's me again. Just thought I'd stop by now because I have a show in a couple hours and I won't be able to see you for a couple of months because of tour. I actually hate this... As much as I love the fans, I wish I didn't have to do this tour so I could just sit with you." I chuckled, sadly. "I wanted to remind you of how much I love and miss you."
I sighed and rubbed my eyes, trying not to cry.
I sat in silence, just listening to the heart monitor for about an hour and a half.
Just as I was about to get up and tear my hand from her's, I felt something I didn't think I'd ever feel again.
Her finger flinched...
I looked down at it.
"Quinn? Quinn baby, it's me, it's Andy." I whispered, shedding a few tears of joy. "It's me, I'm here."
Her finger flinched again and I breathed a sigh of happiness.
Just those simple movements told me that she was still alive.
She was still in there.
She was going to make it...
"I love you." I whispered, kissing her forehead.
~~~~
I walked into the venue's stage entrance with a big smile on my face.
I'd told Fluer what happened and she lit up.
She told me that was the best sign of life she'd had in two years.
I couldn't have been more happy.
"What's got you in such a good mood?" Ash asked as I approached the band.
"You guys. You were all wrong." I smirked.
"What were we wrong about?" CC asked.
"Quinn! I went to see her today before the show and her fingers moved. Fluer said that was the best sign she'd ever seen with her. She said she may just recover from this." I explained.
All four faces lit up.
"Andy, that's awesome news!" Jinxx grinned, putting his hand on my shoulder.
"Dude, I have never been so happy to be wrong." CC pouted.
I chuckled.
"I don't know what I'm going to do when she wakes up." I sighed.
"Don't do anything." Jake told me. "Just kiss her and tell her how much you love her. Don't waste anymore time."
I nodded.
"Thanks guys."
"We're your brothers. It's what we're here for." CC smiled.

CC ran up on stage and sat on the stool to his drums. He was shortly followed by Ash, then Jinxx, then Jake.
It was my time and I was feeling more pumped than I had been in two years.
I ran on stage and jumped on the riser just as the guitars kicked in for 'Heart of Fire'.
The most suitable song for the moment.
"How ya'll doing tonight, LA?" I yelled into the mic, earning myself cheers from every audience member in the building.
I smiled and played the best show I had done in years.
~~~~
After the show, I ran backstage and smiled at Ash, who was behind me.
"Dude, I haven't seen you so pumped in so long." He smiled, giving me a hug.
The rest of the guys joined in, showing their agreement with Ash's comment.
"I think we almost have the old Andy back." CC grinned.
"I think we do." I smiled.
