Drew had been slouched there on the couch, with his girl curled up under his arm. His grip on her was firm only to keep her close, not to hurt her. In his lap was his bass, his left hand on the neck, the arm around Aurora, and the other arm was loosely over the front, lazily picking away at the four strings. Drew also played acoustic guitar but not for his career, though he did use it when he wanted to write a song. Drew didn't often share his songs with the band and never openly share them with Aurora, but he always left his book in a place where she could find it if she wished to do so.

Drew could feel her shift in his arms, making him swing the bass around, set it up against the arm of the couch as his hands gripped her hips and pulled her more onto his lap while his lips where against hers. He didn't let her kiss him just once, no. He never could. His head dipped to the side and he caught her lips in his again, softly sucking the gloss from her bottom lip only for a moment before he let her relax against him. He didn't care about public displays of affection, but these were his friends and he didn't want to be rude. He glanced around for a moment, looked over to Scotty before he tilted his head to the side again and playfully nibbled her collar bone, tugging lightly at a chain around her neck that belong to a locket that he bought for her at one point in time. He had lost track of all the jewelry he had ever gotten her, but the one thing he never did pick up was a ring. The only time he ever bought her a ring was her engagement ring. He planned to do that ever since he met her. Drew didn't believe in love at first sight, but he just knew about Aurora.

Drew glanced over at Will, catching his gaze before his eyes closed as he just hugged Aurora. He was clean as of the moment, but the show was getting closer. The man lightly kissed Aurora's forehead, something he always did before he left to smoke as if a signal not to follow him. He set her on the couch beside him, gave her knee a light squeeze and then got up to leave the room. Those nerves of his would be gone in no time with the help of a little something.
