SPOILERS FOR EP 11 DRDT

Since I did a prediction earlier today, time to update!!

OKAY NO HiATUS WHAT NOOOOO! honestly having looked at the time during the livestream, i genuinely was questioning how they were gonna wrap this up by ep 12 like last time and started to wonder if this chapter will be longer as we spent this whole epsiode in david's extended mask off moment. as much as im sad abt the hiatus i am glad this is extended BECAUSE WE DIDN'T EVEN TOUCH THE ACTUAL CRIME SCENE OR A DEBATE SCRUM tho ughhh noo this hiatus might kill meeee

OKAY DAVID OMG bro lost it AHHHHH i really wanted to believe that david had a good/moral reason for all this but to know he did all this secret maliciously?!!? ik he's not killer for sure so i do wonder how he's gonna be used in next chapters cuz as hot as he lowkey is rn and i do love his biting sarcasm, he's gonna be geninuely such a bitchy force to deal with in future chapters. to have this man constantly causing trouble for no other reason than fun and never trustworthy, i have to wonder if there's any hope left for him. i really hope that his arc actually has him improve cuz u know, poetic irony and all that jazz. Since now we know he doesn't believe what he says, i truly hope drdt takes the time to prove him wrong cuz i really dont want a grimdark killing game proving david (and in some ways, teruko) right. and also, idk why people are surprised david would lie abt being arei's killer and want to get himself killed rn. Bro literally now has lost his career and his public image is ruined. He doesn't have a life anymore for him to go back to. He already mentions how he hates everyone there, so I see zero reason why he wouldn't lie to drag everyone down with him

ACE SLAYS ONCE AGAIN! BRO POPPING OFF WITH THE TRUTH YESSSS AND CALLING OUT PEOPLE'S HYPOCRISY FOR NOT GOING AFTER DAVID WE LOVE TO SEE IT!!! Also j saying that she doubts ace's testimony just cuz she thinks he cant be quiet makes me sadddd

ALSO NICO AND CHARLES!!!! I love that nico comes back in clutch to help actually point out david's suspiciousness. His bluntness is always needed, especially with cutting through david's bs. ALSO CHARLES YESS IM GLAD HE IS NOW GONNA BE CRITICAL TO THIS CASE!!! I like that drdt takes advantage of its video format as normally to have a character interject like that in a mainline dr game would be bad since it's interupting gameplay and taking control out of player's hands. But it works here since we're not actually playing and shows teruko and charles backing each other up and shows people actually getting involved!!!

To the actual crime ... uh i dont know ... clearly this crime is so complicated that we need a TRIAL 2: ELECTRIC BOOGALOO lmaoo. i mentioned before but charles's comment of "fucking up" at the end seems to strongly imply the time of the murder, and thus everyone's testimonies for that time, are now irrelevant. Since arei was alive in the evening last night (ace does claim 7:30, but i do agree with david that ace might have just said that to back up his point rather than it being true) the death happened the prior night or early that morning. it puts into the question the note, calling for 7:30 but it could be 7:30 am before the motive reveal. however, unless it was something like a trap, such a time is so tight i find it hard to believe. maybe i'll do a post later doing a fully theory as i lose my mind during this hiatus (praying for it be under 6 months)

Chapter 21

The next morning jules woke up to a whispered conversation happening between charli and george. "Where was he last night george? He didn't even care to text her, he just left her in the blue" charli said, "He left with jade I think they went out to a bar, i saw them get into a car and then thats the last i saw of him until this morning" he responded back, "I'm going to kill that twat, doesn't he know he has a girlfriend? Who he claims he loves, what is he doing messing around with this girl? Is he a complete idiot?" she responded back, anger evident in her voice.

" I don't know, i'm going to talk to him about it because this is ridiculous, hes one of my bestfriends but this is such a dick move on his part, I cant believe him" george groaned. "Let me know how it goes, i'll be here with jules " charli resopnded.

Soon jules heard the door open and close signaling george had now left, she quickly shut her eyes pretending like she was still sleeping and didn't just hear their conversation. She felt a dip in the bed as charli sat down next to her, jules opened her eyes and slowly sat up to face her friend. "Hey jj how you feeling?" charli asked her friend, "A bit better, I want to talk to him charli I can't hide forever and i love him, if theres any way we can fix this then I'm willing to do it" jules responded, and got out of bed.

"If thats what you want then I can't stop you, just be careful and know I'm here if you need anything ok?" charli said, getting up to embrace the blonde. Jules smiled and hugged her friend back, "Thank you Charli i appreciate it, I'll let you know how it goes" and with that jules grabbed the last of her things, and nervously made her way to her and mattys room.

She hesitantly turned the door handle, slowly, she opened the door to reveal her boyfriend sitting on the bed with his head in his hands. His head popped up when he heard the sound of the door closing, "Jules?" he asked, "Hi matty" she responded and walked further into the room. She sat down next to him, her heart beating out of her chest, "I'm so sorry baby, I don't know what I was thinking, well truly i wasn't thinking I was so stupid and i'm sorry" matty said.

Jules felt tears brim her eyes, but refused to let any fall as she responded "Yeah you weren't thinking matty, you didn't even care that i left yesterday, not one text or call came in from you, and while you were partying it up with jade I was crying in Charlis arms because my boyfriend was out with another girl and completely ignored me" she responded, a few tears fell from her eyes from the anger she was feeling. "I'm sorry julie, I wish I could take it back I really do, fuck I'm so stupid I'm so sorry" he pleaded with the girl.

The rational part of her brain told her to break up with him, she knew she shouldnt forgive him, but love messes with your brain and blinds you from the right decision sometimes. "I forgive you, but i swear to god matthew healy if you pull that shit again, we're through" she firmly responded, he nodded his head and pulled her into hug. Jules reluctantly hugged him back, part of her mind telling her this was a mistake, but her heart wanted him back so thats what she did.

"Why don't I take you out when we get to leeds? I know we have a travel day today and can't really do anything, but let me make it up to you tomorrow, is that ok?" matty asked, looking up at jules with hopeful eyes. She nodded her head "Yeah that sounds great matty" she said, and smiled widely. "Here let me get your stuff " matty said, getting up and picking up her and his suitcase. "Thanks Matty" she said, "Jules really I am sorry, I can't believe i was so fucking stupid, you know I love you right" he said walking up to her, he quickly dropped the suitcases and pulled her into him.

Jules looked up at her boyfriend, she could see he meant what he was saying when he apologized, truthfully she wanted to just drop the topic it happened and she just wanted to forget it.

She leaned forward and kissed him "I love you too matty, lets just drop it ok? I wanna be over it" she responded, matty nodded his head in response "Yeah of course". "Good, now lets head out, don't want to be late" she said, as she was about to pull away, matty pulled her back in and kissed her passionately, "Thats to make up for missing last nights kiss". Jules blushed, "well thank you babe" she giggled, "But seriously now we gotta go, jaime is blowing up my phone" she said, and as if on que her phone started to vibrate signalling that he was texting her. "Yeah lets head out" and with that matty picked the suitcases back up and the two headed down to the lobby.

A/N : next chapter will be heartbreaking for the two just a heads up it's gonna be intense

Modern Encanto AU

Holiday chapter 1 The morning

Julieta woke up to her youngest daughter banging on her door and screaming ,

"MAMA WAKE UP "

She turned to her side to face her esposo, he was wide awake but looked like he could fall back asleep any second.

"HURRY UP"

Which was followed by the eldest,

"WE'RE GOING TO BE LATE"

Julieta rolled out of bed , confused , she looked at the calendar. They were going on holiday how could she forget? She then felt a pair of hands on her waist.

" Tino, get your hands off me, we need to get ready."

" I cant be bothered,"

Julieta rolled her eyes and gently removed his hands and walked over to her bathroom and got her make-up out of her bag. As she was putting on her foundation at the corner of her eye she could see her esposo struggling to put on his t-shirt, she couldn't help but chuckle.

Agustin heard her and turned his head and glared at her.He did that until he burst out laughing. After he managed to fit his shirt over his head and got his trousers on he walked out of his bedroom and down to the kitchen where he was greeted by his 3 daughters.

" Good morning pa " Greeted Mirabel

"Morning Mariposa how was your sleep?"

" Not bad, it did take me awhile to get to sleep, I was too excited for today."

" Me too , me too."

" I had a great sleep to ya'know! " interrupted Isabela,

" That's good, how about you Lu?"

" Good "

Agustin turned his back to his daughters and walked over to the stove.

" Whose making pancakes?"

His three daughters turned to face each other.

" Do you mind turning on the stove? I was in the middle of making pancakes last night but got too tired!" Julieta shouted,

"Mhm! " Agustin shouted back.

Agustin tried his best to not burn himself but you know him he did end up burning himself..

" PAPA" The 3 hermanas said in unison.

Julieta heard so she quickly ran down the stairs with her hair half done but she was fully dressed.

" What happene- ay Agustin"

Julieta sighed as she got some bandages from the cupboard and slowly wrapped it around the burn as Agustin yelped.

" Oh sweetheart, when are you going to learn to be more careful?"

Julieta looked at her daughters,

" Where are your suitcases?" She asked.

"Oh"

" I cant believe I forgot to bring mine down.."

" I'll go get them!" Luisa replied as she started running up the stairs and coming down with 3 suitcases.

" So, when are we going to leave?" asked the youngest daughter, Mirabel.

"After breakfast probably" Her father answered flipping a pancake.

" Which would be now"

Everyone went to sit down at the table as Agustin brought the plate of pancakes.

"Help yourselves."

Everyone took at least 2 pancakes. Julieta realised that there wasnt any nutella on the table so she went to go get some, as she was looking for it Isabela snatched one of her pancakes. Mirabel saw this and was about to tell her mother about it but Isabela shushed her. When the mother came back she didnt seem to notice that she now had 1 pancake and the eldest had 3. Mirabel couldnt help but laugh at this.

When it was time to drive to the airport Agustin helped the middle child load the car, at first Julieta wasn't really on board with the thought of Agustin helping, because of the burn.But he managed to load the car in secret.

When everyone got in the car Julieta started the car and got ready to drive 2 hours and bare an excessive amount of traffic ...

she’s a pretty whore 18+

warnings : abuse ( mental , emotional and verbal )

smut ( if sex makes you uncomfortable heres the warning i'll label the chapters )

strong language

kinks / fetishes

depression / self harm

racism

eating discord ( BED and bulemia )

i project onto Athena btw so that's why the warnings

authors note : btw Athena is black and Puerto Rican. She’s also plus size. Fallon bowman is just the faceclaim but you can imagine yourself ! their pronouns are she/they and is genderfluid but that’s later on

PLEASE DON’T READ IF YOURE A MINOR

HER FATHER was all she had left her last hope , her mother is mentally , verbally and emotionally abusive . she was so confused as to how her mother ended up like this ? was it her abusive ex that made her to a abuser ? it didn't make any sense her mom would uplift her then later being her down . it was a ongoing cycle of " baby im sorry i love you " or " but what about me ? " she felt so stuck no matter how many times she'd tell her mom about her self harm and years of depression she did nothing , yes she'd say she'll get her meds for her depression and adhd , yes she say she'll get her the therapy she needs but that never happened .

   for years she thought feeling this intense sadness was normal that everyone has , the trauma she had to endure during childhood will haunt her forever from being touched to being beat by her moms ex while she was also being beat hurts seeing how he hurt her and her siblings left her feeling useless like she couldn't help her mother and siblings she was the oldest child she had to protect them but she couldn't . he'd make fun of her skin , her hair , her weight how she talked how she acted . all she ever acted like was a child . a happy child . he took that from her and left her shattered for years on end .

" stop im tired mom i cant continue "

i cried out to my mother begging her to end this conversation im so mentally drained

" we're done when i fucking say we are ! "

" please momma im gonna pass out "

from all the tears i've she'd in front of her . all i wanted to talked was about my feelings and how my mental health is effecting school

" what about my mental health huh ! "

there it is . her favorite saying , her catchphrase the words she lived by . i love her i truly do but at moments like this makes me think . i began to speed walk away , the tears pooled up in my eyes blurring my vision made it hard once i made it to my room i pushed my dresser against the door to hold her off . i wiped my eyes and grabbed the phone pushing the buttons of my red telephone dialing my dad

" how fucking dare you walk away from me and shut me out in my own house ?! are you out of your fucking mind ?! "

after 4 rings he answers

" dad can you uh please pick me up like today please i'm beg- "

" whoa who baby what happened ?? what's wrong ?! are you okay "

" i cant take it anymore i cant live with her no more she's banging on my door right now "

i stayed silent so he hears the bangs

" uh ok imma get ready but talk to natasha "

natasha is my step mother , i wish she was my real mother she shows me nothing but love and actually listens to me i can even talk about boys and girls with her without it becoming a argument . she's never yelled at me or was nasty to me she loved me as if i was her own she even calls me her daughter i adore her and missed her so dearly that my heart aches

" hey baby what's going on ? dads rushing to get his stuff "

" my mom is abusive and i believe i told you before "

" yes yes you did and you did what i said good good job "

i smiled at her praise

" all i wanted to talk about was how my mental health and how it was effecting school and my friendships "

i said as my voice broke more then once

" i'm sorry Athena "

i was named after the goddess of war and wisdom , Athena is a war who needed no man to make her know her worth she already knew , born from Zeus head he claimed her as his favorite child and kept her close to him fight side by side with each other . ironic how pathetic and weak i am to not live up to my name . im sorry Athena that a weak human like me has you gorgeous name .

" ok dad said he's on his way ok ? i love you "

hearing those words and knowing that they meant true love and not a form of manipulation made me lease tense . the banging stopped and all i heard were sobs

" i'm sorry Athena , Athena baby open the door please mommy is sorry "

it hurts hearing her cry , i think back to all the times he'd beat her and left her crying , at 7 having to come home from school to find you mother beaten and crying was a horrible sight .

the was pulling the door knob

" come on baby please mommy wants a hug "

i have to stay strong and wait for dad but i wanted to hold her and tell her everything is alright . i hide under my covers and curled into a ball and cried myself to sleep . it felt like i had just fallen asleep when i heard knocking from downstairs and scarred footsteps of my mother rushing to open the door

" you're not taking my baby "

" she's our kid jocelyn and im taking her she's 18 she can legally go where she wants "

he walked passed her and went up the stairs with the mother following

" don't you fucking dare take her "

my mother screamed pulling him

" i will not push you because that's what you want ! "

he said pulling himself free and banging on his daughters door . i opened the door and was engulfed into my dads chest shielding me from the hits my mother was throwing .

" baby don't go please baby what will mommy do without you "

at this point she screaming bloody murder we made it to his care i only grabbed my comfort items such as my sketchbook , journal , my walkerman and my favorite book of all time the five people you meet in heaven .

" are you ok did she hit you ? "

he asked looking at me

" im ok and no she didn't hit me but my brain is confused and scrabble i wanna sleep and never wake up "

he look at me with sadden eyes

" hey kid don't say that look at me "

i looked up at him

" remember how i said this ain't your forever ? right now is the first step to a new life with me ! im so happy j can see you grow up now "

he hugged me and i cried into him

authors note : please tell me if this was good also this is loosely based of me and my mother but not fully . we’re doing much better i still love her so much

but i just saw your word count for 3tan9 (forfeit?) and i just wanna say how excited i am! i cant imagine how much of an effort it is demanding from you, since you never give us nothing short of perfect, and im so grateful! it comes as no surprise you would want a break after it lol 😅, but yeah idk, just felt like thanking you! thank you to put in so much thought, to share so much of your process with us (im so happy whenever you talk about how your writing has been going), to engage so much with us and play along with our theories and our craziness, to write such great pieces and fics and storylines and arcs and developments and dynamics and urghhhhh EVERYTHING 🥺🥺😭

im sure the chapter will be amazing and super 😫🥰🥵🤠🙈 in a good way!!

you're really good to us, and i hope you can really enjoy your rest while you watch us screaming in your inbox 😂 u got an army right behind u too

btw ik im sappy as hell, damn, always reaching out with long ass asks and shit, sorry, i think im still on the edge cause of the show but that excuse only goes so far

anyways, thanks 😊

LUA you're gonna make me melt more and more with every message you send. every sentence, really. i'm just teary eyes rn i'm lucky i took pics before seeing this bc it finished me!!

it's okay! the drabble will still be there whenever you're ready to read. no rush at all, just enjoy when you can :D

forfeit is gonna be humongous omfg. and to make sure all of it is worth the wait, i do admit that it's a bit stressful on top of being just fun and comforting to write<3 it's been 3 months since the last major drop, so i feel like this needs to be super good! the break is gonna be muuuch needed :'))

oh my gosh, it's never dealing with y'all! i love interacting. it's a joy not a chore. thank you for being here with me and sending all the theories and encouragement and whatever else, truly. it makes my day to see y'all caring about this series as much as i do. tbh i had a little moment today in my car, just overwhelmed with how grateful i am to have bangtan, and 3tan, and y'all in my life. this year has been absolutely incredible and i can't believe i'm just now stopping to reflect on it.

just like in fireworks, when reader says being nostalgic for the same moment you're living? that's how i feel now. because the moments we're living now are my favorites.

i can't even describe how your army comment made me feel. just.. thank you. reaching out to hug you so tight🫂 y'all mean the world to me, and i know i say that often but i really do mean it.

sappiness makes me melt!! thank you for sending this bc i needed it. you're amazing, you know that?

LONG ASS RANT ABOUT THYLACINES

I'm still not coping well so i made some shitty memes about my constant hyperfixation

Well I have been fascinated with these animals since I was a literal 8 year old bc of a book my mom gave me about animals (they're all drawn as opposed to pictures too it's pretty cool i used to trace over them all the time)

They're cool marsupials that went extint in 1936

I am a dumbass with one braincell so for some reason it didn't sink in that when the text said 'disappeared 70 years ago' it meant DISAPEARED FOR REAL. I also was too dumb to realize it was under the 'extinct' chapter

Anyway. These animals are fascinating to me and I have been obsessed with everything related to them ever since. I love how close they look to dogs and wolves despite not being related bc evolution works that well, i love their cute little faces, I love how they managed to survive way longer than they were meant to (more on that bellow), how they move, their lower ankles that look like someone fucked up a dog drawing, everything about it

And I absolutely HATE what they have become a symbol of

I would like to think human activity alone isnt enough to actually drive animals to extinction. That, while it helps, it merely speeds up the pace of an inevitable fate. But that's not true. There have been countless animals that died out bc of humans, and that would have been just fine without us around - be it by hunting, destroying habitats, introducing new species or bringing disease

Thylacines were hunted with no mercy bc they were thought to kill farm animals. People offered money for each one that was shot. Animals that humans introduced to their habitat infected them with disease and made food less avaiable. And just a few decades later, they were gone, forever

And if that wasn't bad enough, the last one we have record of died bc of NEGLET. In a zoo, he was left out in the cold night and didn't make it. They probably threw the body away with no care, thinking they could just get another one to use as exibition, and then realized too late it was the last

ON TOP OF THAT, rules to protect them were set in place about 50 days before the last one died. 50 DAYS!! Talk about too little too late. Maybe if they had done it earlier, things would have been different, but no. They didn't care until they realized hey we havent seen one in forever, fuck

ON TOP OF ON TOP OF THAT, the picture that was used to get farmers to kill them of a thylacine with a chicken in its mouth was most likely faked using a mounted one. It was fucking propaganda?? To??? Kill animals?? Man, what the FUCK. Maybe kill the ones around your property (still wrong but fine) but why lie to people to make them go out of their way to kill animals in the wild??

Everything about thylacines' extintion just highlights the worst parts of the human nature. How careless we are to everything but ourselves. How if it doesn't make us money, we don't care. How we care too little too late. How we can destroy something so easily. And how we don't care about lying about something to get what we want, no matter how bad the consequences might be to someone else

I honestly think the fascination people have with finding these animals in recent years is due to guilt, at least some of it. Yes it's a cool animal, but most important of all it makes us feel bad. So finding a new one maybe would make it ok. We can still save it. We're not that bad.

But that ever happening is unlikely

Thylacines lived short lives (up to 6 years in the wild, 9 in zoos) so to have them survive would require large populations constantly breeding. So to think we wouldnt have found a bone, a dead body, or run over one in over 70 years (also everyone has a phone now, why cant there ever be GOOD pictures taken of these sightings?) just seems like the kind of thing that can't happen

Not only that, but before human intervention they already suffered from low genetic diversity due to its population getting smaller over centuries due to disease and few individuals. It's sad to think that they were always doomed to fail, but it's likely the path they were going towards

So it just makes it way less likely that they would have survived in the wild. They were already failing to reproduce and survive with the individuals they had - imagine after we kill 99% of them. Even if some did make it past the year we recorded, it probs died out shortly after

BUT they could still be alive today, or at least gotten a few more decades. Some people think they did. And maybe we could have helped them if they made it to today with the technology we have

But we'll never know

There's a bunch of footage (with some newly discovered one) of the last one, and while that is cool, it just makes me sad :( to see it pacing around its small cage, with nothing to do, no other one to keep it company (they were often depicted in pairs, idk if they were social animals but it seems like it), not knowing it would never again have another one like it. There's also footage of someone rattling its cage?? Probs to get it worked up to make it walk around or react or something. DONT DO THAT

It's just a sad footage overall, and becomes painful to watch once you know everything else. A sad pacing stressed animal, that would die alone in the cold and go down in history as the last one ever. All while being oblivious to everything we have done to its kind, bc it was just a scared animal

Some people think they survived into the 90's, a lot of people claim to have seen one since 1936 (with no proof) and february 2021 one expert said they had proof they saw one and that it was a baby. It has been debunked by another expert, i have yet to see the pics, but until we have DEFINITE proof, i'll keep on believing they're gone

But it's nice to hope every once in a while. Every sighting makes me a bit happy. This is a big world, with so much of it unexplored, and animals though extinct have showed up again or even been cloned recently. So who knows!

It has been pretty shitty to live through a major historical event that is bad. For a moment I hoped I'd witness one that was actually a positive one

And honestly, if they are still out there, maybe a small population that learned to hide very well, I hope they keep hidden. I'd love to see them, but maybe they're better on their own

We've seen what happens when they're not

[thicctransboi]

Almost- Chapter 4

"I don't know,Sam, I don't think I'm ready to meet the baby just yet." Grizz said to Sam as he slipped on his shoes.

Sam had proposed the idea to Grizz shortly after they began getting dressed. "Are you scared to? Or is it just nerves or something?" Sam asked.

Grizz sighed, "I don't know... She's your kid, Sam... It's still weird for me. I cant promise I wont walk out. It might just be too hard on me. Besides, does Becca even know about us yet?"

Sam shook his head. He couldn't help but feel guilty again when Grizz said, 'Your kid'. Sam wanted so badly just to tell Grizz the truth, but that wasn't his truth to tell.

"Why not?"

Sam shrugged, "I don't know, I didn't know If you were ready for people to know yet. It didn't feel like it was my place."

Grizz chuckled "Sam, we might die here. If I wasn't ready for people to know, I wouldn't have tried so hard to get with you in the first place. If we die here, I want people to know me for the real me, not just the me thy thought they knew." Grizz sighed, "Let's go to the hospital, I'm sure Becca is missing you."

Grizz was right, Becca had sent Sam at least 20 texts asking where he was, causing Sam and grizz to speed walk to the hospital. As they walked, a few people in town looked their way, causing Sam to feel nervous for some reason. Sam felt even more nervous as Grizz grabbed his hand, holding it as they walked. Approaching the hospital, Grizz felt his stomach quench; this was it, he was facing his fear: Becca and Sam's baby. Grizz had to hold himself back from getting emotional as they arrived in the maternity wing.

"There you are! Where have you been?" Becca practically screeched as Sam and Grizz rounded the corner. Then her eyes landed on Grizz. "Grizz! You're back! I heard the trip went well."

"Yeah.." Grizz said, his eyes traveling to the small child in Becca's arms. "Congratulations on the baby.. Sam told me you named her Eden, it's fitting." Grizz suddenly felt small despite being 6 foot 3.

Becca was beaming. "Thank you, wait, what are you doing here? No offense, I just didn't expect you to visit today considering you just got back and its- 2am."

Sam didn't even realize how late it had gotten. He answered for Grizz, "Actually, I've been meaning to talk to you about that. Grizz and I... well.. We've been seeing each other?" His response came out as more of a question than a statement.

Becca raised an eyebrow, glancing between the two boys in front of her, Grizz awkwardly scratching the back of his neck. "Since when? Grizz, you're gay?"

"Thanksgiving."

"Uh, yeah?"

Becca's eyes went wide, tossing a pillow weakly in Sam's direction. "That's where you were when I went into labor? With him?! Wait- You lost your virginity and didn't even tell me didn't you?! Sam, you were getting dicked down while I was in labor! That's why you weren't answering your phone!?"

Sam let out a sigh, meanwhile Grizz stood their wide eyed. "Should I go and leave you two to talk?" Grizz asked awkwardly.

"No, no, stay..." Sam said, singing slowly. "Becca, I'm sorry. It just kinda- happened."

"Why didn't you tell me?"

"Would you have rathered me told you while you were in labor? 'Hey Becca, sorry I'm late, I know it's a bad time considering you're crowning, but me and Grizz just had sex and I really like him. That cool?'" Sam mocked.

Becca rolled her eyes.

Grizz felt his heart ache; they were perfect for each other, they even argued like a couple. No wonder they hooked up.

"You should have told me after, you know I would have been fine with it. I've been waiting for you to meet someone, though I thought you wouldn't considering our situation," Grizz was shocked to hear that comment, even more shocked when Becca said, "Grizz, come sit."

Grizz looked at Sam for help, Sam just smiled as Grizz slowly walked over to Becca and the baby, sitting down on the bed between her and Sam.

"Want to hold her?" Becca asked, giving Grizz a smile.

Grizz felt his heart rate increase, "No, no, I wouldn't want to intrude or anything. Aren't you mad? Like, you're okay with me and Sam?"

Becca laughed, "Of course I'm not mad! Sam's my best friend, I want him to be happy," She shot a smile towards Sam, "And how would you be intruding? You can be a part of this too, you know. I'll take all the help I can get. Here, take her, just mind her head."

Grizz was on the verge of having a panic attack, taking Eden into his arms carefully and making sure to keep her head elevated. The small child looked up at Grizz sleepily, causing Grizz to notice her stark blue eyes. They were Sam's eyes. It made his heart ache. But then, she wrapped her little hand around Grizz's thumb, making his heart swell, despite him knowing it was just a reflex. Something about holding her was oddly comforting, despite the circumstances In which she was brought into this world.

"She's beautiful." Grizz signed with one hand, not speaking, afraid his voice might fail him. He could feel it now, he was getting emotional and he wasn't prepared for them to see him that way, nor did he want Eden to feed off of him. Babies were weird like that. "Becca, take her... I need a minute."

Grizz bolted out of the room as quickly as he could.

Becca raised an eyebrow, turning to Sam with Eden in her arms. "Is he okay?"

Sam sighed, "He's been upset ever since he found out about her... That she's 'mine'. He's scared he's being a home wrecker."

Becca suddenly felt guilty herself, she knew that this wasn't fair to either Sam nor Grizz, but she couldn't find it in herself to tell either of them the truth of who the father really was. She knew it would break Sam's heart. "He'll get over it once he realizes we aren't like that together, right?"

"Becca, he needs to know the truth. This almost ruined us last time before he left, I can tell it bothers him.."

Becca shook her head, "No, Sam, I... I can't.. You can't. Please.."

***

Sam found Grizz outside of the hospital near the entrance, taking deep breaths as he leaned against the brick, his breath puffing out in clouds in front of him due to the cold. His face illuminated by the hospital sign.

"Are you okay?" Sam asked, approaching him slowly.

Grizz sighed, "She has your eyes, Sam... She looks just like Becca but with your eyes.. I can't- I can't do this."

Sam felt himself grow uneasy. He had never given it much thought, Eden's eyes. But now that he thought about it, she did have his eyes. But how?.... "Grizz- please... Don't- Don't leave. We just got back together, I can't loose you again."

Grizz sighed, watching as the air left his lungs, "How can I look at her, and not be reminded every day of the fact that she's yours? The fact that you'll never truly be mine? The fact that you slept with Becca and have a child with her? That I'll never be a part of it? I can't do that, Sam. It hurts too much. I just can't."

Sam sighed, in that moment he felt so conflicted between Eden having his eyes and wanting to tell Grizz the truth. But how would Grizz believe him now? Not now that he saw that Eden had blue eyes. How did she have his eyes?? "Grizz, you can be a part of this, Becca even said, she can use all of the help she can get. And, I am yours, I'm all yours if you want me to be... Becca and I.. We're not like that. We never have been, I told you. Please, don't let this get to you.. Please."

"She has your eyes! How can that not upset me?" Grizz yelled. "They're as blue as the damn sky in the summer time! Just like yours! Your eyes! The ones that I fell for! The ones I opened my soul up to! The ones-"

"They're not mine! Eden isn't mine!" Sam shouted, finally snapping. "I don't know how her eyes are blue, her real dad's must be! But I wouldn't know because I don't know who that is!" Sam was breathing heavily, his words hung in the air. He suddenly realized what he had just done. "Fuck! Don't tell Becca I told you..."

"Sam? Are you saying what I think you're saying? Why would you tell me that she was yours?" Grizz was stunned, suddenly no longer angry, more confused.

Sam sighed, "Becca and I agreed that that was what we would tell people when I agreed to help her out, we agreed that I would say I was the father... I don't know who the real dad is, she won't tell me. But I promised her that I would be a father to this child, Grizz. I promised I would live this lie as being her biological father to keep her secret. She's my best friend, Grizz, I had to. please understand, please don't tell her I told you..."

Grizz stood there in shock, not believing what he was hearing, “Sam… You lied to me.”

“I had to! I had no other choice! I promised her, and I ended up hurting you in the process. Fuck, I’m so sorry…” Sam was crying rather relentlessly now.

It took a lot, but Grizz couldn’t stand seeing Sam cry, letting out a sigh, he pulled him close, wrapping his arms around the smaller boy tightly. It’s okay.. We’ll figure this out.. I won’t tell her.”

“Thank you…”
