“You have stuff to worry about later on,” Harry said. “Right now, this is about pulling together the music and working with the marketing team. Well, more me than you guys. You’ll need to show up for photo shoots, interviews, a few autograph sessions. I’m working on equipment deals and maybe a big summer tour.”

“Maybe?” Colby asked. “We want it.”

“Everyone does,” Van said.

“The financing needs to come through,” Harry said. “Which it will.”

“Tell Portis to break out the checkbook,” Ryker said.

“What about the opening band?” Brantley asked. “I know we touched on it and then it faded out.”

“I know what I would do,” Jett said. “I’ve been saying it for a while now. There’s an east coast band that’s tearing it the hell up. They’re too big for their own good, believe it or not. They have offers to come out west but they’re hanging east, just living it up.”

“Who is it?” Ryker asked.

“They’re called After the Run. Trust me, they’re good. They’re already big time on their own. They had a small label working with them. Two of the guys have a clothing line. It’s crazy to think about. All on their own.”

Brantley pointed to Harry. “Make the call then. Figure it out. Let’s go to a show.”

“What about your situation?” Colby asked.

“Me?” Brantley asked. “It’s all good. Taking things slow. I’m letting her lead the way. She has every right to do so.”

“How’s the kid?” Jett asked.

“Good. Amazing. It’s a different world, man. I’m learning my way. We made pancakes together. I gave him a drumstick and he uses it to fight off bad guys.”

“Bad guy?” Van asked.

“You know kids, man. Stuffed animals and stuff.”

“I wish I was a kid again,” Harry said.

“No you don’t,” Ryker said. He walked to Harry. “You love being grown up and watching after us.”

Everyone laughed.

“I’m going to jam,” Brantley said. “I have to go back later. This is a quick trip here for me. I’m far from out of the woods with any of this. The kid is sick, you know? Emma said something about a blood transfusion. I guess I’m the matching type. If he is mine.”

“Any doubts?” Colby asked.

“No,” Brantley said. “Not a chance. When I look at him…”

The room was silent for a few seconds. Brantley had no words. That’s exactly how it felt. There were no words for it all.

“Okay,” Ryker said. “Let’s write a sad song. Let it all out, brother.”

It wasn’t the worst idea in the world.

The five of them grabbed acoustic guitars and went to work. Brantley felt the gears in his mind going wild. Not musically but lyrically. Ryker and Jett took the lead, strumming a few chords they called the standard sad song chords… G, E minor, D, and C. Ryker started to mess around with some riffs and playing the chords an octave higher to give it more sound.

Then out of nowhere Harry started to whistle. It sounded like shit because Harry couldn’t carry a tune with a dump truck, but it gave Brantley an idea.
