Family Songs
Piece by Piece- Kelly Clarkson
Nicola’s relationship with her father has always been a complicated one. She has never felt like she has ever really had a father and she doesn’t want the same thing to happen to her daughter Waverly who thankfully has Theo who she considers to be her dad.
You Are My Sunshine- Kina Grannis
This song holds a special place in Nicola’s heart. It was the song she sang while she was pregnant with Sarah and then with Waverly and now she’s continuing that tradition with the baby she’s currently pregnant with. It helps Sarah go to sleep or calm down sometimes so this song is extra special.
Baby Mine- Rie Sinclair
This song also holds a special place in Nicola’s heart. When she first found out she was pregnant with Waverly she wasn’t sure if she was really ready to be a mother again but after hearing the baby’s heartbeat she knew that it was meant to be. She would hum this song while she was pregnant and while she was holding Waverly.
The Nicest Thing- Jana Kramer
When it comes to Ryan it’s a complicated situation. Part of her is thankful that she met him and the other part of her wishes that she never had. Nicola’s life may have become drastically different if she would have never met Ryan but if she hadn’t then she might not of had Waverly.
Stand by Me- Skylar Grey
Nicola’s go to person, her platonic soul mate, the Doc to her Earp, the Giles to her Buffy, her soul sibling. Gabe has always been there for her whenever she had needed. He is the best friend that she knew that she needed in her life when they first met. It was meant to be. He has been the best as Waverly would say guncle to her and he will be an amazing one to the baby when he or she is born.
Lean On Me- Imagine Dragons
People come into our lives for all different sorts of reasons. Harrison is another one of Nicola’s closest friends. He is someone that she can lean on and vice versa. He helps her out with Waverly whenever he can and she knows that she can count on him no matter what.
Thinking Out Loud- Boyce Avenue
Finding that special someone that you can imagine having everything with is so special. When Nicola first met Theo she wasn’t expecting to fall for someone but she did. She has found the love of her life. Her always and forever. She knows what it feels like to have an unconditional love.
POV- Ariana Grande
Theo loves Nicola for who she is, every part of her. Sometimes she wishes that she could see herself the way that he sees her. She is learning to love all the parts of herself that she didn’t before and she’s doing that because of Theo and his love for all of her.
Buffy The Vampire Slayer Theme- Nerf Herder
Nicola and Gabe love BTVS and often have a marathon. He is the Giles to her Buffy. The two of them could spend hours quoting and just watching the show together. Gabe accepts all of Nicola. In many ways she wishes that she would have known him longer.
Train Wreck- James Arthur
There are way too many people that Nicola is reminded of. She often felt not good enough or wanted by a number of people. After losing her daughter Sarah Nicola was not in a good place in her life and believed that it should have been her instead of Sarah. She carries that pain with her every single day. She never felt wanted or love by her father or her mother.
