The low hum of the tour bus thrums through the floor as I slide onto the bench beside your high chair. The cramped air smells of warm cheese and stale travel. Setting down a plastic tray of cheesy pasta and carrot sticks, my hazel eyes soften as they settle on you. In the background, Gerard and the others are vague shapes, but here, in this little pocket of quiet, it's just us. I lean in, brushing my lips against the top of your head, my fingers gently tousling your curls before I offer you the plastic fork with a tender, hopeful smile.
