Max felt Michelle squeeze his hand tightly and he turned his head to give her a reassuring smile. He was going to be right by her side for this.

~~

"Well Sadie and I were trying to make baby socks, but it didn't turn out to well," she replied, laughing softly as she untangled the thread.

She wasn't sure that she bought the whole "seeing the city" excuse, but she let it roll off for now.

She pulled away, smiling as she wiped away her tears of happiness. Pulling Max forward, she smiled even more broadly. "Mom--this is Max. We've been dating for a while now." She said confidently, winking at Max smoothly so that Jane couldn't see.

~~

Jude grinned, pulling up the pathetic attempts at making baby socks. "They aren't too bad." Jude said quietly, holding back a laugh at the thread.

"Really...they're...erm...fixable?"

Wow, she just said dating and Max couldn't help but grin.

"It's nice to meet you, Max," Jane said, kindly, offering her hand to him.

"Nice to meet you too."

"Please, um, come in," Jane said, pushing the door open to invite them along inside.

~~~~

Lucy rolled her eyes and punched his shoulder playfully.

"Probably not, but I can try to knit a new pair and hope they go better this time," she chuckled.

She slowly entered the house that held so many memories, good and bad. Michelle was overtaken at how much the same it had looked. Every chair--every table--appliance, were all in the places that they had been left. Michelle journeyed through the house as Jane began to talk to Max about god-knows-what.

A hand clasped over Michelle's mouth as she stepped into her room. It was untouched. Completely. Everything was convered in a light layer of dust, but was nonetheless all the same. Textbooks were propped up, opened up to specific pages, with pencils and paper nearby. Her bed was still unmade--various shirts thrown haphazardously on the floor.

She shut the door behind her, her back sliding against the door as Michelle began to cry softly. The last time she had been here was also the last time that she had spoke to her father.

~~~

Jude smirked. "Do you really want our kid wearing those?" he asked seriously, holding up the pathetic pile of string. "They won't really be that effective." he leaned back into the couch, tossing the mess into Lucy's lap.

"It's so good to have Michelle back home," Jane smiled as she put the kettle on to boil.

"I know it means a lot to her, to be back here," Max said, decided to leave out that whole "father" business because he didn't want to upset this woman that he had just met.

As Jane began to fix the cups of tea, the front door opened. Max raised an eyebrow and brushed it off, figuring that maybe Michelle had a sibling that she had forgotten to tell him about. It was no sibling, a man around Jane's age walked into the kitching, smiling when he saw Jane and kissed her softly.

~~

"No, I suppose not," Lucy sighed, setting her knitting aside for now.

"So, tell me, Jude, what do you want to paint in the nursery?" she asked excitedly.

"Max." Jane said softly, smiling at the handsome young veteran. "Max Carrigan...is it not?"

Michelle wiped away her tears, brushing off her pants as she stood up. She needed to get over this. Her father wouldn't have wanted her to be crying in his memory. She would have wanted her to move on. Or at least try a little. Once Michelle was sure that the blotches were no longer visible, she stepped back into the kitchen, immediately noticing a tall man with a deep voice.

The same voice that she had heard over the phone. It was her mother's new husband. This would most likely take some getting used to. He was nothing like her father. He was...words couldn't describe."Okay." she said with a tone of depreciation. "I'm here."

~~

Jude propped his elbow up on the couch, leaning on it. "I dunno. I havent really thought about it that much...you know? Stop worrying. I'll do it when I'm...I'm....inspired." He nodded, although happy that Lucy was getting so excited. "I promise."

His mind on the other hand, was racing with several million thoughts. He was trying to imagine a possible scenario where proposing to Lucy would even seem plausible, while on the other hand, thinking of things he could paint on the walls of the baby's room. A baby girl...if he was lucky. His baby girl.

"I made us all tea and we can go into the living room and talk," Jane smiled.

Max made sure he stayed close to Michelle and wrapped his arm around her as they sat down on the couch.

"Roger, this is my daughter Michelle, and Michelle, this is Roger, my new husband," Jane introduced.

~~

"I won't worry, Jude, I promise. Whenever the ideas hit you and you paint it, I know it will be amazing," Lucy smiled.

Jane wouldn't have known. Jane hadn't seen Michelle since she was 16 years old. That was over two years ago. This was all an act--to make her mother happy--to make up for the lost time. She didn't give a shit what Roger thought of her.

And yet, the feeling of Max's steady arm around her waist made her feel better, as though her problems were slowly disolving into nothingness. It was a wonderful feeling, and at long last, Michelle knew that she had something with Max that she would never have with someone else.

As crazy as he was--he was safe.

~~

Jude grinned. "Don't push art. It comes naturally, love." In a swift motion, Jude repositioned himself, picking up Jo-Jo's guitar, still sitting on the table beside him. "So Jo-Jo...wanna teach me how to play?" Jude strummed his playfully on the strings, a string of sour sounds releasing from it. "I've got a lot of potential, eh?" he chuckled.

"So, how did you two meet?" Jane asked.

"Michelle was my nurse when I got wounded in Vietnam," Max said gently as to not open old wounds for both Michelle and her mother.

Jane seemed unfazed however and merely nodded her head. She turned to Roger and smiled, placing her hand on his knee.

"Roger and I met at the library, we both reached for the same book," Jane grinned.

~~

Jo-Jo rolled his eyes a bit.

"Yeah, man, sure. But I think you should stick to your art and making babies," he teased.

Lucy couldn't help but smile was she leaned back on the couch, watching the love of her life. This all felt too good to be true.

"That sounds...lovely." She said softly, staring down at Max's hand, sitting on top of her knee. It was very comforting to know that he would probably be just as amused as she was.

~~~

Jude laughed, continuing to play notes off key. He began to sing a song to the group, although his beautiful, rich voice echoed throughout the apartment, there was something about the sour chords that just seemed to throw him off.

"I'm getting better!" he exclaimed, rolling his eyes at the laughter.

"Michelle hasn't had a boyfriend in quite some time, you seem like a nice boy and I'm glad she's found you," Jane smiled, the look on her face a bit loopy everytime she would look at Roger.

"Well I like to think that I'm a nice boy," Max grinned.

~~

"Yes, baby, you're getting better all the time," Lucy teased as she browsed through the knitting book.

"Do you guys want some lunch? On me, I just got paid for our gig last night," Sadie smiled, giving Jo-Jo his share.

Mentally, Michelle wretched, watching her mother become oogle eyed every time she looked at Roger. It was tolerable the first time, but twenty or so time later, it became rather repetitive, and annoying.

Jane frowned at her only daughter, noticing the uncomfortable look on her face. There was nothing she could do to make this better, only to try and put the past behind her. "Why don't we all have some lunch?" she suggested, smiling at Max and Michelle warmly.

~~~

Jude sat forward, stretching his arms. "That sounds good, considering that I'm pretty much broke at the moment." Of course, he wasn't about to reveal exactly why he was bankrupt, but it was the truth nonetheless.

Sadie grinned, reaching for her coat. "Sounds good. Let's go then. I feel like I havent eaten in the longest time."

"Ready?" Jude asked softly, snaking an arm around Lucy's waist, his hand resting tenderly on her stomach. He met her gaze, and instantly felt a smile break out on her face. God, he loved Lucy so much. Too much. Perhaps it was something that only he caught...but everything he did--even his art at times always led back to Lucy.

"We can skip out on lunch if you want," he suggested, knowing that she wasn't happy with this situation at all.

~~

The four gathered around a table at a local diner.

"I miss Prudence. I want to share the happy news with her," Lucy said.

"She'd be filled with so many ideas for the baby's nursery. She could probably find you everything you need for it for nothing," Sadie smiled.

Lucy looked over the menu and felt her stomach churn a bit. Food was not something she believed she could keep down at the moment.

She leaned over, kissing him deeply on the lips. "Your really a good boy, you know that?" she asked, giggling, imitating Jane for a moment.

"Come on...let's go talk to them. I'm sure she wants us to stay."

~~~

Jude nodded in agreement to what Sadie said, casting Lucy a side glance as she clutched her stomach, staring at the menu in distaste. "Alright, love?" Jude asked meaningfully, placing a hand on top of hers.

"I never got around to make a Christmas feast. Roger and I went out for dinner on that day," Jane smiled, setting the plates onto the table.

"Hey, no worries, I'll eat anything," Max joked.

~~

Lucy nodded her head.

"Just a little bit of an upset stomach. I think that happens early on, food repulses you at first and then later on you can't stop eating," Lucy laughed, bumping her forehead against his own softly.

"Thats alright. I really haven't eaten anything as of lately. I was so busy last night..." she smirked, happy that she was able to hold something above her mother's head that she wouldn't know about.

~~

Jude laughed, his accent strong all the same. "Alright...if you say so. But don't get too offended if I eat something. I don't think I've eaten in a long time. Maybe its just beacuse I'm always hungry."

"Oh well that's good that you two are having fun. That's important," Jane smiled, oblivous to what her daughter was really talking about.

Roger reached his hand over and took Jane's.

"Roger and I always have fun together," she giggled.

~~

"No, eat, eat," Lucy encouraged, deciding to order something just in case a wave of extreme hunger hit her.

"Have you thought of any names yet?" Sadie asked.

"Sadie, we just found out!" Lucy laughed.

Michelle cocked an eyebrow at her mother, casting a side glance at Max who was consuming the sandwich set in front of him.

"So tell me, mom..." Michelle began, a smirk forming on her face. "What kinds of fun do you and Roger have?"

~~~

Jude leaned back into the seat, before saying simply in response to Sadie's question, his tone sarcastic. "Jude if its a boy. And Jude if its a girl, right Luce?" He smirked, hoping that everyone knew that it was a joke.

Max snorted softly as he swallowed his sandwich. He knew what kind of "fun" Michelle was getting at and this whole situation was becoming humerous.

~~

Lucy laughed happily.

"Exactly. We'll name every child we have Jude and soon we'll have a house full of Judes. It will be easy to remember their names," she laughed, taking a sip of her soda.

"Oh well...you know...we get around. I mean, you two should never try this because you are far too young..." Roger began, his face extremely serious. "But I have a bit of a foot fetish you see, and we enjoy relaxing in a warm tub of water, rubbing each other's feet."

~~

Jude grinned. "Of course we will...have you ever considered changing your name to Jude?"

The waitress came out, serving the burgers out to Sadie, Jo-Jo, and Jude. "Are you sure you don't want anything, miss?" she asked Lucy kindly, her eyes bright.

"Excuse me," he managed to push out before he ran to the bathroom.

With the door safely shut behind him, he burst into a huge round of laughter.

"F...foot fetish!" he roared, laughing all over again.

~~

"Just a cup of soup please with some crackers," Lucy told her.

She might be able to keep all that down. The smell of the burgers made her slightly naseous.

"I'll be right back. I'm just going to check on Max." She rounded the corner, opening the door to the bathroom, a grin on her face.

"So what Max? You think its funny that he wants my mom to suck his toe, not his penis? I find that fucking hilarious." she said softly, trying to supress a laugh as she held onto him.

~~~

Jude grinned. "Well, at least you are eating now, love." he reminded her lightly as Jude delved into his burger, taking a huge bite.

"Please...stop...can't...breathe," he pushed out, a small pain forming in his belly now.

He was beginning to find his visit here rather hilarious and it was nice to see Michelle having such a good time as well.

~~

Lucy gagged softly and turned her head away, thankful that the waitress had bought her soup. She ate it slowly along with her crackers, her stomach feeling a bit better now.

"Let's go back out there. I'm rather entertained by this foot fetish." Michelle kissed Max one more time before pulling him back to the table.

"Sorry about that, Mom--Roger."

"Its quite alright, dear. Is Max okay?" Jane asked concernedly, staring at Michelle fixatedly.

~~

Jude turned once again, having finished the burger. "Feeling better?"

He was going to have to learn to control himself a ltitle bit better.

~~

"Yeah a little bit," Lucy smiled, curling up against him.

Michelle smirked, kicking Max lightly from underneath the table. "So..Roger...tell me more about what you and my mom like to do in your free time? I heard about the foot fetishes, but besides that...I'm intriegued, aren't you, Max?"

~~~

Jude smiled, stroking Lucy's hair gently. "Good. You two ready to leave?" he asked across, staring at Jo-Jo and Sadie, who had been getting just as cozy.

"Yeah, very much so," Max grinned.

"Oh well besides the foot massages, we're pretty tame people," Roger told her and Jane let out a soft giggle.

"We can be wild at times though," she added.

~~

"Sure thing, I could use a bit of a beauty rest before the show tonight," Sadie smiled, kissing Jo-Jo's cheek.

"Mmm, a nap sounds really good," Lucy agreed.

Michelle pursed her lips again, smirking. As amusing as this was, it was really beginning to bother Michelle that this was the man that her mom was madly in love with. He wasn't anything like her father--this man was so--so--strange, that she found it hard to picture him with anyone but another man.

A surge of anger washed over Michelle as she realized that this wasn't a joke--it was her reality. This was her step-father. "Tell me Roger..." she began curtly, an angry look crossing her face. "Does your face always screw up like that when you smile, or it the botox that make it like that?" she smirked.

"Or is it just naturally fucked up?" She crossed her arms, waiting to see her mother's reaction. She honestly didn't give shit anymore. She had her fun, but she needed to get down to business.

~~~

Jude shrugged on his coat, feeling around in his pocket once again to make sure that the ring was there. He really wasn't that tired, but the silence in the house would give him some time to catch up on his thinking. "Sounds alright to me." he smiled, taking Lucy's hand.

Roger looked stunned by Michelle's comment, not sure how to respond to it.

"Maybe we should leave?" Max suggested, not wanting to be caught in such a tense situation and he could tell that Michelle was getting angry.

~~

Lucy smiled and squeezed his hand as they walked home. Lucy curled up on the couch next to Jude when they got home and flipped through her knitting book again. Suddenly a wave of exhaustion took her over and she settled into a deep slumber against his shoulder.

"I came back, Mom--okay? I wanted to see you...I havent seen you since dad died. And what do I come back to? Your married to a flamer with a foot fetish. Who cares if dad is dead? Do you think that he would have left you for someone else? He loved you..." Michelle's eyes burned with tears as the memory of her father slowly returned to her. "He loved me..."

"I really wanted to get to know you better this time around, Mom." Michelle breathed, leaning back against Max as she stood up. "I guess I was wrong. You've changed Mom. This asswipe changed you." She nodded her head towards Roger, flipping him off as she pulled Max out of the kitchen.

"Let's go. I can't do this." she whispered into his shoulder, sobbing quietly as he embraced her.

~~

Jude smiled watching Lucy sleep. It was something that he had taken to doing whenever they made love. Lucy would always sleep against his chest. Jude enjoyed watching the rhythmic falls and rises her chest took with every breath she took. He stroked her face gently, covering her body up with a heavy blanket before getting up. He strolled into the empty room next to his and Lucy's, knowing that this was where the baby's room would most likely end up.

He stared at the blank walls, wondering what he could draw on them. It was going to be different. It had to be something that came straight from the heart...something that only Jude himself would have been able to think up properly.

Jude tiptoed back to his room, finding a set of pastels. He stared at the various colors, some pale in comparison to the vivid shades. He smiled back at the wall, thinking of the woman he loved in the other room, carrying his child...

Their child...

He picked up some pastels and began to create a scene against the main wall. A starry night, with a moon, set off in the highest corner of the wall--its light shimmering on the stars below it. A dark navy filled the spaces between the stars (all of different shapes, colors, and sizes). Jude added in things of his own touch, staring at the wall every so often from a distance to check his progress.

Lucy would be thrilled.

"Or would you rather take a walk and then head back?" he offered, his fingers wiping the tears off her cheeks.

He bent down and softly kissed her lips.

~~

Lucy stirred a few moments later, letting out a soft yawn.

"Jude?" she called out softly and recieved no answer.

She stood up, tucking the strands of her blonde hair behind her ears. She wandered into the room and stood in the doorway. A look of amazement crossed her face.

"Oh wow, Jude, it is...breathtaking," she praised as she looked at the amazing work he had created.

"Let's just go for a walk..." she murmured softly, taking his hand, wrapping her spare one around his waist.

Max could never fully know how much she appreciated this. That was probably what made her love him so much. That he always knew what she needed most...whenever she needed it. "Thanks for this...you didn't really have to."

~~~

Jude turned, slightly suprised to see Lucy standing in the doorway. "Do you like it?" he asked with a knowing smile--already noticing the look of absolute amazement on Lucy's face. He stood, brushing off any residue from his hands, wrapping his arms around Lucy's waist.

"I think she's gonna like it." He whispered into her ear with a smile.

"You don't have to thank me, Michelle. I just want to make you happy," Max told her softly, leaning in and giving her a little kiss.

He took her hand again and the two began to walk to the park that wasn't far from her. He had meant the words he had told her. She meant a lot him and he would do whatever he could just to make her smile.

~~

Lucy smiled and leaned back against him.

"So its a girl now?" she asked softly, thrilled that Jude was embracing fatherhood.

"I know you don't want to hear it, but I really do appreciate this, Max." she beamed at Max, her face still tear stained, eyes red and blotchy.

~~

Jude smiled, kissing Lucy's temple. "Yeah...at least I hope so. She better be a girl. I hope she looks like you. Then she'll be beautiful." he grinned, running a hand through Lucy's hair.

He paused for a moment to wipe away the stray tears that had fallen. He didn't like seeing her so upset and he was finally glad to see a smile on her face. She was so beautiful, even when she was sad.

~~

Lucy blushed softly as she rested in his arms.

"I hope she has your eyes though," Lucy told him, loving Jude's dark eyes and the depth he had in them.

"If anything ever happened between us...I...I..." she buried her head in his chest again, tears falling continually.

~~~

Jude flushed, kissing Lucy deeply on the lips before murmured heavily into Lucy's ear. "I hope she has your smile."

"Shhh, don't even think about something like that, nothing is going to happen between us. I love you too," he told her gently as he felt her warm tears sink though his shirt.

Why would anything happen between them?

~~~

"Well then, if she has my smile and your eyes, then I dare say she's going to be quite the heartbreaker someday," Lucy grinned.

She pulled away from him as she felt her stomach turn.

"Sick," she told him before running off to the bathroom.

Over time, he had become half of Michelle's soul, just as she had for Max. They loved each other, so what could happen?

~~~

Jude smiled at Lucy's comment. It melted away once she ran into the bathroom, saying that she was sick once again. Jude followed suit, kneeling down beside the toilet, pulling her hair back and pressing a kiss to her head as she continued to throw up into the toilet.

"Come on, its okay...just let it out."

"Are you ready to head home now or would you like to keep walking?" he asked, looking into her eyes.

Her sapphire eyes were so beautiful to gaze into. He swore he could see into her soul everytime he looked in them. It was hard to believe that she was finally his. He thought he might have been dreaming and while he was in the cab, he had pinched himself to make sure that he was in fact living in reality.

~~

The back of Lucy's throat burned as everything came back out. A few moments later, she was finally done. She slowly stood up and washed her mouth out with some tap water.

"Man, I can't wait for that to finally stop," she smiled at Jude.

Michelle smiled, becoming lost in his meaningful eyes. His eyes were a window of his soul, in a way. Michelle remembered when she first met Max...so long ago...he had such a barrier up, it was hard to really get to know him.

"Will you just hold still?" Michelle asked exasperatedly, trying to fix the young, handsome soldier's wound into a sling.

"Well its kind of hard to hold fucking still when you keep pulling my arm back like that." He muttered grumpily, rolling his eyes at the nurse.

Michelle folded her arms across her chest, staring incredulously at the man in front of her. "Well you know what--Carrigan?" she asked, checking her clipboard to get his name right. "I could easily just say 'fuck this' and let your arm break into two. Would you like me to do that? Because at this point I don't really give a shit."

None of the other nurses had heard Michelle, because they were too bsuy tending to other soldiers. Max smirked. "Sorry Miss...continue with breaking my arm...Whats your name again?" He asked flirtatiously, meeting Michelle's eyes.

It was in that moment, no matter how annoyed she was with this man, she felt a pull towards him. His eyes were so deep, and blue--the same blue as the ocean, that she felt obliged to answer. "Michelle."

"I'm--" he began, only to be cut off by Michelle.

"Max." she said curtly, finishing her work on his arm.

"Are you always this rude to your patients?" he asked smartly a grin plastered across his face.

"No. I'm only like this to the patients who keep staring at my ass like I'm going to give you a lapdance or something." She sardonically, as Max burst out laughing. She turned away for a moment, checking off something on her clipboard, although took a mental note. She liked his laugh.

"Lets go home, Max." she said softly, leaning her cheek happily against his shoulder. "I owe it to them to at least say a proper goodbye. But don't be suprised if I end up shooting off again." she laughing, kissing Max on the cheek. "I really do love you...I know I've said it at least twenty times."

~~

Jude laughed. "Feeling a little better?" he asked, kissing her on the cheek. Once again, Jude felt around in his pocket for the velvet box. Once he realized that Lucy was probably watching him, he lifted up his hand again, placing it around her neck in one swift motion.

"You should rest some more. I think it would do you some good." He stroked her cheek gently, helping Lucy out of the bathroom as they walked.

"Michelle?" he called out and she turned around to face him.

"Do you think I could have some drugs? The pain is bad," Max told her.

~~

Lucy nodded her head in agreement. She was suspicous about why he kept reaching into his pocket, but she let it go for now.

She walked back into the bedroom and the moment she her head hit the pillow she was in a deep sleep. She would be very happy when this part of the pregnancy passed.

Michelle spun around, cocking an eyebrow at the extremely rude young man. His face looked different this time--it wasn't the smart one thta hd crossed his face just moments ago...it was defeated, and he looked like he was in pain.

"You want drugs?" she asked softly, returning to his bedside. "Lets see...they've already got you dosed up on a lot of Morphine...Is it really not working, babe? Or were you just trying to get me back over here to stare at my ass some more?" She smirkedd, staring into his endlessly gorgeous eyes.

~~

Jude watched and waited for Lucy to fall back asleep before walking into the kitchen, where he found Sadie, already awake. "Hey, Sadie...can I show you something?" he asked quietly, looking around to make sure no one was listening.

"Sure, hon...whats up?" Wordlessly, Jude pulled out the box containing the engagement ring. "I bought it today....for Lucy."

"Ok, you caught me. I just wanted to see the beautiful face of yours again. Those eyes have stolen my heart away," he grinned.

He sighed softly though as a wave of pain flowed through his body.

"But seriously, I'm in a lot of pain, I'm note sure the morphine is working," he admitted.

~~

Sadie's dark eyes went wide as she studied the ring.

"Wow, Jude, it's beautiful. When are you going to propose?" Sadie asked curiously.

"I don't think there is much I can do about the morphine, though. It looks like they've already given you the maximum dosage for today. You are going to have to wait it through." she frowned. "I'm sorry. Is there anything else I can do for you?" she offered a smile, patting his arm.

~~

Jude smiled softly, taking the ring back and pocketing it. "I'm not sure yet...not right this second obviously. I'm going to wait for when the time is right."

"I would really appreciate it."

Most of the contact he had got had come from the battlefield and right now it would be nice for some actual human company. Michelle seemed so kind.

~~

"I'm sure you'll find the right time, Jude," Sadie smiled at him.

"And I wish you two the best of luck."

"So do you have anyone back home?" she asked curiously, staring back into his blue eyes.

~~~

Jude grinned, putting the box back in his pocket. "I certainly hope so. I'm going to need all the luck I can get."

"Lucy is really excited about the baby." he said, barely able to contain the excitement within himself...to be honest...he was probably just as much, if not more excited than Lucy was.

"I have my sister, Lucy, she's amazing and my best friend Jude. Of course they have a romance going. And then there's Sadie, Jo-Jo and Prudence," Max told her.

His eyes seemed to light up when he mentioned them.

"Of course, I don't have a girl if that's what you mean," he said with a mischievous smile.

~~

"She really is and so are you, I can tell. This is an amazing gift," Sadie smiled, leaning over to kiss his cheek in a friendly matter.

"It will be nice to have a baby around. And by the way, I can tell that you've been thinking of names! So what did you have in mind?" she asked curiously.

"As in...I'm not looking for a guy, Max." She grinned. "Especially ones dosed up on drugs."

~~

Jude shrugged. "Honestly...I havent thought about it too much..you know? Do you have any ideas? Knowing Lucy, she'll probably have a novel by tomorrow with names."

Max hadn't had a steay girlfriend, in well ever. He was a ladies man and lost interest easily. He was a skirt chaser who saw beauty in all women and didn't want to settle down with just one. Of course, that had been then.

Now, after fighting in this war, he realized how important it was to have someone. He had Lucy, Jude, Sadie, Prudence and Jo-Jo, but they all had someone else. Max was alone in that mixture. He was the odd man out.

All he wanted was a true relationship with someone. With someone who understood the horrors of war.

~~

"I don't know, man. But nothing odd of hippish like Moonbeam or Rainbow," Sadie teased.

"Emily is a nice name I think," Jo-Jo added as he was practicing some riffs on his guitar.
