Cheryl and Toni were in their room, when they heard a slapping noise, and Indigo crying. They looked at each other before rushing down stairs. They saw Violet yelling at Indigo and her crying holding her arm.

"What the hell did you do?!" Toni yelled.

Cheryl went over and picked up Indigo. "M-Momma my-my ar-arm hur-hurts." The girl cried.

"I know baby." Cheryl gave Violet a glare. "Get out." She pointed to the door.

"Oh come on Cheryl. You haven't even heard my reasoning." Violet protested. Toni looked between the two. She walked over and took Indigo out of Cheryl's arm.

"You bruised it, great." Toni exclaimed sarcastically.

"You don't need reasoning. You shouldn't hit kids period. She's five for god sakes, and doesn't know better. Hitting her will just make her more scared and nervous than she already is." Cheryl crossed her arms. "No get out, or I can call the cops, and they can escort you out."

"Toni, your really gonna let this happen? To your own mother?" Violet demanded.

"Well, you just hit my daughter, knowing what Jeremy did to me, so yes. I am." Toni stated firmly. How could her mother do this? Knowing what Jeremy did to her, and how that effected her.

"Fine. Let me get my things." Violet huffed stomping upstairs.

Indigo was silently crying. She was opening up to Violet, and sorta getting comfy, but now...she doesn't want to open up with anyone.

"Are you okay?" Toni asked rubbing her back. Indigo was laying on her shoulder so Toni couldn't see her.

"Yeah." She mumbled.

It's been a few days, and Indigo has been diagnosed with anxiety, and social phobia.

"Wanna get ice cream?" Toni asked as they walked out of the doctor's office. She was holding one of her hands, while Cheryl was holding the other.

"No. I wanna go home, and watch movies." Indigo began skipping towards the car.

Cheryl and Toni laughed.



The three girls spent the day watching movies, and cuddling. Toni got up to go get an apple, when she heard a knock at the door. They weren't expecting anyone today. Once she opened the door she froze.

"Oh my god, Donna I missed you." A man hugged her. Toni knew who he was. It was her "boyfriend" while she was away. She left after he proposed, even though she may or may not of said yes...

"Jack? What the hell are you doing here?" Toni pushed him iff of her.

"Maria said you moved somewhere here."

"Babe, who's at the door?" Cheryl asked walking over to her.

"Babe?" Jack looked between the two. "Donna are you cheating on me with a girl?!"

"Toni who the fuck is this?" Cheryl narrowed her eyes at him.

"Cher-" Toni began but Jack cut her off.

"I'm her fiancé, and Donna doesn't even like girls."

"You're right. Donna doesn't, but Toni does." Toni stated.

"Who's Donna?" Cheryl furrowed her eyebrows. She didn't know what the fuck was happening.

"You know when I was in the witness protection program?" Toni turned to face her. Cheryl nodded. "Well, that was the name they gave me. They told me to go out with some people to make it more realistic, and Jack was the dude, and the day before I left he proposed."

"And you said yes." Jack informed.

"She what?!" Cheryl exclaimed.

"Well, I knew I wouldn't of gotten married 'cause I was leaving so it didn't matter..." Toni mumbled.

"But it did though. You got my hopes up, and I filed a missing persons' report." Jack sighed.

"Sorry Jack, but I'm actually married. And have a daughter."

"You could divorce her, and we can raise the kid together." Jack said with hopeful eyes.

"No. Our daughter is actually mine too. I carried her, and you're not taking her away from me." Cheryl stated firmly. "Now you can get the fuck out of here before I call the police."

"Fuck you. Both of you. Donna- you know what never mind. Have a nice life." Jack rolled his eyes and walked out.

The next morning, Cheryl and Toni took Indigo to the park. It was a really nice sunny day, and Indigo had nothing to do today anyways.

Cheryl and Toni laid on the grass, while Indigo ran around on the play set.

"I never thought we would actually work out." Toni said out of nowhere.

"What?" Cheryl asked with a laugh.

"Like I don't know. I thought we would be a thing for a couple months, then we would get tired of each other, break up, and never talk again."

"Why did you think that? Because I thought you were it for me."

"I don't know. We were so different, and from completely different worlds. I just thought it wouldn't work out."

"Oh. Well, now look at us. We have a kid, and are married." Cheryl sighed.

"Yeah."

"Mommy! Momma! Come push me on the swing!" Indigo yelled.

"Okay. Okay." Cheryl and Toni giggled.

It ended up being Cheryl pushing Toni and Indigo on the swings. Before Indigo jumped off - surprising both Cheryl and Toni - screaming "You can't catch me!" And then running around.

"Oh we'll see about that!" Toni jumped off of her's, and began chasing after the young girl. Cheryl following behind.

Then, Cheryl caught up to Indigo, and caught her. Once Toni caught up to them, they all ended up falling to the ground in a fit of giggles.

The family of three spent the rest of time looking at the clouds. Making small talk.





















Who knew people from different worlds could end up together for the rest of their lives. It still baffled the brunette that this high school relationship actually worked out in the long run. Getting married, having a child, leaving for five years, and after all that they were still together. It blew her mind for sure.





Then two women and the young child lived the rest of their lives, happily, ever, after.

The End.
