~*Lilac's POV*~

"If I'm being honest, I'm not fully comfortable using my actual singing voice," I whimpered. 

"Can you mimic someone else's voice?" Cherry asked. 

"Y-Yea. I'm going to mimic my отец's voice," I responded. 

"Who's voice?" Kieth asked confusingly. 

"Ruv's voice, I'm guessing," Tabi replied. "I heard refer to Ruv as 'отец' which is father in Russian," 

"Oh, okay. Please don't do the church shaking part, though. Please," Kieth asked in a shaky voice. "I, I'm scared he'll eventually destroy the building with his voice," 

"Alright. Understandable," I smiled. 

"Cherry," Cherry looked at him. "Hit it!" 

"Ya got it!" 

(Brownie points if you get the reference)


The music started again from the beginning. I felt sweat roll down my face and the building anxiety inside me. I was singing first, but I've done this before in practice with my papa and father. I inhaled, ready to sing. 

(Ignore the part where Ruv says 'I'm dead' because Lilac barely speak in Russian) 


Once the song finished, Kieth and I were exhausted from how fast-paced some parts were. 

"Was," Kieth gasped. "Was that your first time?" He asked. 

"Out of practice? Yes. Overall? No," I responded as I sat down on the floor. 

"Well, good job. You did pretty well for a beginner," Kieth beamed. Cherry hopped off the speaker with a loud clack from her heels on the marble floors. She walked over to me and patted me. I looked up at her in confusion. Cherry tensed up before taking her hand off my head. I grabbed her hand and placed it back onto my head. 

"Continue the pats," I hissed, still staring up at Cherry. Cherry continued staring down at me, very tense. 


~*Whitty's POV*~

I rubbed Ruv's abs while hugging him from behind. We were on the indoor balcony of the church. The nun allowed us to watch the rap battles from up here since Ruv helps out around the church and comes to Sundays masses. The rap battle between Lilac and Kieth rocked, and it was amazing how well Lilac mimicked Ruv's voice. 

"That was amazing," I whispered into Ruv's ear. Ruv hummed in agreement as he rubbed the side of my face. 

"Where's Ruv and Whitty?" Someone called out from the crowd. I'm pretty sure it was Garcello. "Did they leave? Or go poof and are gone?" 

"Wrong!" I yelled out in annoyance, which freaked some people out. "Ruv and Whitty are right here, you, bloody, brussel sprout," I placed my head onto his shoulder. 


"How did you two get up there!?" Kieth yelled, looking up at us in shock. Lilac stared up at us, deep in thought, before standing up. Lilac walked over to the pillar and felt it as she walked around it. She began slowly climbing it. 

"Oh my god, Lilac!" Ruv panicked as he crawled out of my lap. I stood up and wobbled over to that section of the balcony. Lilac started to purr as she got about halfway up the piler. Lilac's purrs got louder and louder the closer and closer she got to us. Ruv reached down and grabbed Lilac when she got close enough. Ruv swung her over the railing and into my arms.
