Joey's POV~

Ashley and I sat on the couch. We were finally heading back home. I was ready to be in my own bed, sleeping for two days straight.

I watched as Ashley scrolled through her pinterest. She was, of course, looking through nursery pins. I stopped her when I saw one that I liked.

"Babe, look at that one." I said as I pointed.

She tapped on it and looked up at me. "You like that one?" She asks.

"Yeah." I smiled. She gave a small smile back before saving it, in a folder named Baby Stamper. "Baby Stamper?" I ask.

"Yeah." She grinned, "Kelsey has one named #BabyGrimm, so we went with matching names."

"Wow. You two really are best friends." I laugh.

"Of course we are. You and Caleb are best friends. Like I'm best friends with Fallon and Brycie too." She responded.

~*~*~

Later that night, we all sat at the venue. Caleb and I sat next to our wives, whom were talking about our children. Ashley had been scrolling through pinterest all day.

"Am I only the one who noticed that our children are going to be born like within months of eachother?" I ask.

"No." Kelsey answered, "Ashley and I knew."

"Oh! Joey look at this!" Ashley exclaimed, poking me.

"What?" I ask. She tilted her phone and let me see.

"It's Ohio State." She grinned. I smiled at her excitement. "Do you like it?" She asks.

"Yeah." I smiled, "But I thought you didn't like basketball."

"So? Can't I make my husband happy?" She asks.

"Well, yeah. But I want you to have a say. He's your baby too." I comment.

"No. I like it." She nods.

"Then save it." I suggested.

"What themes are you thinking about?" Kelsey asked.

"Joey wants a musical baller, so I'm trying to find something like that." Ashley answered.

"A musical baller, Joe?" Caleb laughed.

Ashley smiled, "That night when I told him, he kept going on about a musical baller, like himself."

"It's true." I nodded.

"Of course it's true." Alan muttered.

"I'm taking you down tomorrow in basketball." Spencer challenged.

"Can't. Sorry." I mumbled.

"What y'all got plans?" Spencer asked.

"No. He'll be sleeping for the next two days." Ashley laughs.

"Yeah." I nod.

"Just go with it. Happens after every tour." Chad snickers.

"But Thursday we'll have that livestream." Alan informed.

"Let me guess. My turn for dinner?" Ashley asks.

"Uh-oh." I laugh.

"Hey." She groaned.

"I'm playing. I love your cooking." I comment.

"I was actually thinking Chickfila. I've been craving Chickfila, or Mexican." She smiles sweetly.

"Now that you're pregnant, you want always Chickfila?" I ask.

"Stop." She whines.

"I love you." I smile, kissing her cheek.

"I love you too." She mumbled. I leaned over on her shoulder and grinned up at her. She laughed, "You're annoying."

"Hurtful." I sighed.

"I'm kidding. But you are sometimes." She corrected.

"I hope your son turns out just like you, Joe." Alan laughed.

"He'll be awesome. Thanks Al." I grin.

"He'll be adorable." Ashley smiled.

"Is that what I am to you? Adorable?" I pout.

"No. You're just incredibly good looking." She mumbled.

"Thank you." I smiled. She rolled her eyes.

"Come on. Concert time!" Alan informs, jumping up.

"Let's kill it!" Kane exclaimed. I rolled my eyes and shook my head.

I stood up, and waited for Ashley. She just glared at me, causing me to laugh. "Stop! It isn't funny. I'm huge and pregnant." She whines.

As she stood up, I quickly kissed her. "You look fine. You're very beautiful when your pregnant." I smiled.

"Good comeback, Joe." Alan whispered.

"No I'm not." Ashley mumbled.

"You're always beautiful." I replied, kissing her cheek.

"Okay you two. Let's go!" Chad exclaimed.

I sighed and rolled my eyes. I kissed Ashley's cheek as I took her hand.

We were all escorted to the stage. We prayed and I kissed Ashley quickly before running on stage.

This was my favorite part about my career. Seeing all our fans; people who have supported us since the beginning. The best part was knowing that God was guiding us all through His journey for us.

~*~*~

Ashley held my hand as we all walked ti the meet and greet. The guys and I were excited to get this over, to be in our own beds and to their see families.

As we sat down, Ashley stood behind me and Kels stood behind Caleb. Ashley kept her hands on my shoulders, gently rubbing them from time to time, which felt amazing.

As we were signing things and talking to our band, one girl stood out. She was young, I would say about 16, maybe. She had bright, fiery, red hair. At the least, she looked like the Little Mermaid.

"Hi! I'm Joey. What's your name?" I smiled.

"Harper." The girl responded. She grinned as she handed me a tshirt. I happily signed it. She spoke as I signed it. "I just wanted to say congrats on your baby. A lot of people are so excited." She said.

"Thank you. It means a lot, Harper." I nodded.

"Do you know what your having?" She asked.

"It's a boy." I answered.

"That's great!" She exclaimed.

"Thank you, really." I smiled as I handed her shirt to Caleb. She then moved on and talked to the others.

"Your fans are great, Joey." Ashley whispered.

"I know. They're the best." I nodded. She smiled and leaned down to kiss my cheek.

I watched as a few fans smiled at us. Some of them chanted out to us, saying that we were goals and whatever.

As the meet and greet was nearing towards an end, the atmosphere got really tense. I didn't know how to exactly explain it. Like it was awkward and heavy. I shifted uncomfortably in my seat as another fan came to me. I quickly signed her things and listened to her.

The last fan came to us. We chatted with them and signed their things as always.

"Joey, I'll be right back." Ashley stated, unsurely.

"Okay, be careful. I love you." I smile.

"I love you too." She whispered, kissing me quickly. Ashley and Emily, then, rushed over to the restrooms. I was confused, but shook the thoughts from my head.

"So ready to go home." Chad groaned as we stood up.

"I know. I'm ready to cuddle with my wife." Alan stated, "I wanna eat breakfast with my girls."

"I just want to sleep in my own bed." I laughed.

"I'm sure we all do, Joe." Caleb nodded.

"Where'd Ashley go?" Kane asked.

"I don't know. Her and Emily went to the restroom." I shrugged.

"They had a theory. They're testing it out." Morgan informed as we reached the room.
