#lennon tobias ft. lyla

[coconvtfm]

lennon really thought they'd be on time but as always, they weren't. they were running towards the church when they looked at a very familiar face. lyla. the woman who was supposed to be their wife now, but instead he decided to leave for new york city and work on their rap career. a move that worked, they were pretty well-known in the genre and while they certainly weren't up there with snoop and lil wayne, they couldn't complain. "lyla," they spoke and then looked at the little guy behind her. the thought crossed his mind that the little one looked like their own father, but that couldn't be possible - right? "uhm... after you?" they finally said as they opened the door to the church for her, not sure what to do or say.

open to — m / nb plot — based on forever my girl ( my muse and yours were high school sweethearts who were supposed to get married after graduation. your muse left mine at the alter to pursue their dreams to become a music star. after the unexpected death of a mutual friend of theirs, your muse returns back to their hometown for the funeral, only to discover my muse has been keeping a secret — she was pregnant at their wedding and never got the chance to tell your muse before they left town. )

Leave it to Lyla to run late to a funeral, of all events, though she had her son to blame for refusing to put on pants or eat anything except Oreos for breakfast this morning. It was going to be one of those days, she could already tell. The church bells were chiming as she pulled into the parking lot and thankfully she noticed a few stragglers skirting in the building just as tardy as she was. Hustling from the car, Lyla gripped her son's hand and tugged him up the front steps of the church, his small footsteps padding behind. Heels clicking against the concrete, Lyla slightly lost her footing, fumbling against another body just before she reached the top step. " Oh I'm sor — " Words catching in her throat as she caught sight of the person who used to be her entire world, Lyla's face fell, lipstick covered lips hanging fully ajar. Her heart felt like it had cracked open, spilling a million different emotions into her chest. She didn't know what to do or what to say, only that she was staring into the face of someone she didn't think she would ever see again. Someone she sure as hell never wanted her child to meet.
