Laura:(walks in the house with a guitar case in her hand) Ross!

Ross:(walks out of the garage walking up to her) Yeah?

Laura:(smiles handing the guitar to him) It's finally fixed

Ross:(smiles big and puts it down on the counter and opens it taking it out of the case and holds it) Oh my god! I love this so frickin much!

Laura:(giggles) Well there, you finally have your gift back in a proper way

Ross: Thanks so much Laura

Laura:(smiles) You're welcome. Now get back on the song

Ross: What's the rush?

Laura: Well Rydel & I put fliers out that you and your siblings are gonna preform a song and over half of the city wants to see you guys

Ross: Seriously? (shocked)

Laura:(nods) Now get back on it. Your performance is on Saturday (kisses his cheek) I'm counting on you (smiles and goes upstairs to her room)

Ross:(sighs in love and puts the guitar back in the case and brings it in the garage)

Riker: New guitar?

Ross: It's the one that I've been trying to fix

Rocky: Oh the one that Laura gave to you?

Ross:(nods) Yup and now it's finally fixed thanks to her

Riker: Well let's see what that baby can do

Rocky: And plug it in too

Riker:(face palms himself) Just do it

Ross:(nods and takes it out of the case and plugs it to the amp and starts playing the melody) (smiles) Oh yeah

Rocky: that is a hot beauty

Ross: I know right

Riker: Well that is a rockin guitar, wish we could use it though

Ross:(nods) I really like the instruments we already have though

Rocky: When do we do the song anyways?

Ross: Laura said on Saturday

Riker: This Saturday?

Ross:(nods) Yeah

Rocky: Well let's get Ryland, Ratliff & Rydel in here and start practicing

Ross: We still need some lyrics though

Riker: Actually, Rocky & I got them all. We worked on some last night when everyone was asleep

Ross: Why didn't you ask me to help? I could've helped you guys

Rocky: You were tired Ross, it's okay. We wanted you to rest and besides, we're doing this for our little brother

Ross:(smiles) Thanks. I'll get the rest in here (walks out)

Riker & Rocky:(works on the song more)

A little while later

Rydel: You guys worked on something?

Riker:(nods) We're almost done, we just need a few more things and then we got to rehearse a lot and then we're good to go on Saturday

Ryland: This Saturday?

Riker:(nods)

Ratliff: Well let's get going and stop standing around

Ryland: Wait, who's doing what?

Ross: Well I was thinking that Ratliff could do the drums

Ratliff:(nods) Sure thing

Ross: Ryland is playing the bells

Ryland: Got ya

Ross: Then Rydel is playing the piano

Rydel: I thought I was playing the cello

Ross: Do you want to?

Rydel:(nods)

Ross: Okay then, you're cello. Rocky will play bass, Riker is playing violin

Riker & Rocky:(nods)

Ross: Then I guess I'll play the piano and then harmony and all that. Got it?

everyone:(nods)

Ross: Great (takes a deep breathe) Let's start working on this song

everyone:(starts working on the song)

A few hours later

Laura:(asleep in her room just cuddling to her fuzzy blanket)

Ross:(walks in her room and sees her asleep) (smiles seeing how cute she is) Awe, you're so cute when you sleep (kneels next to her moving a strand of hair in her face to behind her ear) (grabs her hand feels it cold) (takes her hand and holds it in both of his hands) (kisses her hand) I am gonna do everything to finish that list for you, no matter what (leans in and kisses her forehead)

Laura:(flutters her eyes open) Ross?

Ross:(smiles) Hey

Laura:(smiles) Hey

Ross: Did I wake you?

Laura:(shakes her head) Nope

Ross: Okay good

Laura:(looks at her hand) Why are you holding my hand?

Ross:(realizes he's still holding her hand) (quickly let's go) Oh sorry

Laura:(blushes a bit) No problem

Ross: Well it's dinner time now so.....

Laura: Okay (sits up rubbing her eyes yawning)

Ross: Or maybe I should bring it to you

Laura: Also a good idea

Ross:(chuckles)

Laura:(smiles)

Ross: I'll get your dinner, you just relax

Laura: Can do (lays back in bed getting in the covers)

Ross:(stands up and walks out of her room going downstairs to get her dinner)

Laura:(just lays there waiting for him)

Ross:(comes back up with two plates full of food on it) (passes one to Laura)

Laura:(Sits up again) Thanks (starts eating)
