I couldn't believe it.
Lyric was officially awake.
After two months.
I watched the doctors and nurses check her vital signs and made sure that she was okay. I waited until they left the room to talk to her.
"How long was I out X? I feel well rested and everything." She laughed causing me to do the same.
"Two months." I said. Her eyes gotten wide once I told her that. I wanted to cut the small talk and understand what actually happened to her. "Lyric, do you remember anything that happened back at Chris's house?"
Her smile began to fade and she started playing with her fingers. "We got into a huge fight. Over Renáe being pregnant with his baby. I guess it was that fact that she was giving me clues and hints that they were messing around that caused me to snap on him and her. We were both fighting. All I remember me packing my bags and some of my brother's and throwing them down the staircase. After that, I don't recall anything." She began to cry, "It just hurts me that he did that to me with her. I've been standing up for him and everything no matter how many times he would abuse me. I just don't understand X!"
I immediately rushed over to her and sat on the bed being careful and wrapped my arms around her. "Shhhhh. Lyric you have me. You have me baby." That's when I kissed her lips for the first time. I pulled back and stared at her for a little bit. She smiled and leaned towards me kissing my lips.
I deepened the kiss causing her to bite my lip and wrap her arms around my neck. At that moment everything felt right.
"Ly, I meant everything that I said to you. I actually like you. Hell you got a nigga sprung with your cute ole self. But I don't wanna rush into things with you. Being that y--" I started to say before Lyric placed her finger on my lips.
"You know. For a guy, you talk to damn much." She giggled, "Let's just take this one step at a time. I mean I do like you Xavier a lot, but I just need to focus on me right now due to me being in a coma for two months. And I already know that our English teacher, Ms. Harmon, has gave y'all shit loads of work." I smiled smacking my lips during the process.
"I mean it ain't a lot. Plus you got me and the gang to help you out since we are basically in all the same classes." I said.
Speaking of the gang, I decided to shoot them a text that Lyric was awake and to head to the hospital with Myles.

Lyric's Point of View~
Everybody was in the room just filling me in with stuff that has been going on at school. I was shocked when Nicki told me that she beat Renáe's ass for all the trouble she caused.
"Sis you should have seen it! Boy that was some funny shit." Tristan laughed while Ronnie and the rest of the guys were co-signing, "But my baby did good." Nicki smiled and kissed his lips while I playfully rolled my eyes at them too.
"I'm just happy that you are okay. I mean I didn't want my crush to die without me. Sorry X." Dré sarcastically cried grabbing my hand before kissing it. "Bruh, move before I'll beat that ass." X laughed. Dré shrugged.
Myles was the only one that didn't really say anything since he been here. I can sense the vibe and I decided to just talk to him. "Aye you guys, I would like to have some alone time with my brother. That's if y'all don't mind?" I asked. Everyone shook their heads with the occasional "Sure" or "No problem". I looked at X and gave him a kiss on the cheek.
"We'll be outside." He said and I nodded. I waited for him to close the door before I want to begin this conversation.
"Myles." I said softly. He glanced at me, "What?!"
"Look Myles, I know you are mad at me but I didn't want it to be li--"
"Like what?!" He semi yelled, "Like I would have lost you and wouldn't know how and what happened? Yes, I'm fucking mad! I'm mad at all this shit we have been going through. The shit with mom and dad and now with Chris! I can't go through this shit anymore with him beating up on you. You need to go to the police!" I immediately rose up.
"And then what Myles! I would go to jail too and your ass would be put in foster care! Now do you want that? Chris is a part of the drug trade and his is already hot with the police tracking down everything. I already got something planned for him..." I smiled and bit my lip. I plan on taking him down and I want him to suffer in the process.
"Well does it involve police?" Myles came up to me and sat on the hospital bed beside me. "At the end yes. But it's going to be risky." I said not knowing the actual answer. "But I really wanted to tell you something. Now I know you might think I'm crazy after I say this, but I saw Mom and Dad in my dreams when I was out." I said waiting for him to say something.
He just sat there and looked at me. "Ha. Ha. Very funny Lyric." He smiled and patted my leg. "I'm serious Myles. I saw them and everything, it was just what I needed to gain closure from you know. Mom was looking beautiful as ever with her long, curly hair. Dad was still looking handsome even with that scar on his eyebrow that he had gotten from when he tried to fix the ceiling fan. You remember that?" I asked.
He started laughing, "Hell yeah. He was so cheap to hire a repair man." I giggled and then there was silence again.
"I know you miss them Myles. I miss them more then ever. They told me to tell you, well us, that they will always be around and they love us. Okay?" I said as I watched him nodded. I gave him a hug and a kiss on his forehead.
He smiled and got up, "Damn. Guess I needed to hear that." I shrugged, "We both did."
We both did indeed.
Unknown Point of View~
I feel real terrible for what I did.
Hell, I highly doubt she even remembers it.
But, I have more things to worry about. Renáe and this damn baby. She is the main reason why me and Lyric gotten into a fight in the first place. I don't know if I should put a bullet in her head or at least talk to her about this. She should know that I'm not taking care of that damn baby.
She got me fucked up.
With all the niggas she been fucking!
I don't need this. At all. But she will be convinced. I decided to take her out to eat and play Mr. Nice Guy.
Dressed in my Armani black suit and shoes to match, I waited for her at the door. I turned and saw her dressed in nothing but sweats and her hair in a pony tail.
"So you must have forgot about our plans.?" I questioned while she rolled her eyes. "What brings you here? Last time I checked you didn't care." She said. I closed the door behind me while she made herself comfortable on the couch.
"I do now. Renáe, you are bring a child into the world. Hell you a child yourself! You can't provide for yourself." I informed her.
"I'll take your ass to court and demand money. That's what child support is all about right?" She yelled. "Why you don't want me to have this baby? I thought you loved me!?"
Is this girl serious right now?
"It was just for the sex. No strings attached. You can't be serious? Renáe, just get rid of it. Put it up for adoption or something! I can't with you!" I spat. Renáe got up and smacked me. I grabbed ahold of her neck and choked her.
"You're the main reason why Lyric and I aren't together. If I can't be happy, neither can you. I'm done with you and this situation." I pushed onto the couch and headed for the door. That is until a glass vase was thrown above my head.
"Fuck you Chris! Best believe that I'm going to take your ass to court! I don't give a fuck if your ass is going to jail. I loved you. With all my heart! And the fact that you are treating me this way just makes this situation even worse. And you know all the hell and shit I've been through! And treat me like shit, like I'm some kind of game! I am going to take care of this baby, whether you like it or not." Renáe yelled and crying.
I just held my head low and left.
