"Where is Matt? I haven't seen him in forever." As soon as Ashton popped this question Melanie looked at him with amusement. "Really? You have no idea?" She was amused. Ashton puckered his lips in confusion but shook his head nonetheless.
"No… should I"? Ashton wondered out loud.
"I guess you are not that aware of a lot of things," Melanie chuckled. "He is in his wife's pack. She just gave birth so they are staying at hers for now. There was some problem with the pregnancy so it is for the better if they stay there."
"Are you close to them?" Ashton asked.
"Yeah. I mean, I am Matt and Caleb's friend". She shrugged. "You got this? Or you need more help?" She asked.
"I think I got this." Ashton nodded. "You can go do your job, I'll handle things here." Ashton declared, allowing her to leave for the day. It was around evening when Ashton got a reminder on his phone about the press conference. There was still an hour to go so he decided to link Caleb.
