You and silco were back to square one. You were hurt and you did everything in your power to avoid him. You didn't go home, you slept in the bar backroom. You'd go see the girls and Every time he would try to talk to you but you'd shut him up real fast.

It hurt you so much ignoring him but what hurt the most was him making a life's decision without you. Especially when you thought he treasured you. You kept your wandering mind busy with the bar and on the days you had off, you'd wander the undercity or hang with Jinx and Ekko.

One evening, Vander sent you off to relax as you had worked the bar 13 days straight. He saw how drained and exhausted you were yet you were absolutely oblivious considering you didn't care about it. So you decided to take a walk on the outs of the undercity.

Something was running through your mind, an urge to go to Piltover. You had this crazy idea, about asking the councilors to help. Which was foolish of you but it wouldn't hurt to try. Well it might. Once the thought ran through your head, it stuck like glue. You groaned as you took a deep breathe before beginning to walk over the bridge to Piltover.

You entered the city walking through the crowded streets of civilians seeing all the privileged life wander around without a care in the world. Before you knee it, you were at the stairs of the council house. You gulped as you took your steps up slowly. Giving yourself a chance to turn back now. But you didn't.

You grabbed the handle of the door and opened it letting yourself inside. Two enforcers approached you quickly holding guns towards you.

"State your business!" They hissed inching closer.

"I need to speak with the council" you gulped.

"Pathetic of you to think so" the other enforcer laughed as he pushed the tip of the gun onto your chest. You glanced down at it as it touched your skin and then back up at him.

"What's the problem?" A voice erupted behind them. They jumped and stood straight into a small salute. Your eyes fell onto none other than your father. Who seemed very shocked to see you. You saw him take a very deep breathe before parting his lips cooing words towards you.

"Y/n? I'll take it from here gentleman. Thank you" he nodded as a dismissal to them. He watched them walk away before turning his attention back to you. "What are you doing here? The nerve of you." He spat lightly.

"Honestly I don't know why I'm here either. It all realities, I'm sure this is a major mistake but I guess I won't know until I try" you shrugged your shoulders gently.

"You look awful." He mumbled lightly.

"Thanks" you scoffed as you rolled your eyes. "I've come to ask for a favor. I guess I'll ask you upfront and if you deny, I'll take it up with the council." You spoke getting straight to the point.

"Can we continue this is my office?" He asked softly.

"Are you gonna beat me?" You asked suddenly.

"No...." He mumbled quietly as if he were almost ashamed.

"Then sure." You responded coldly. He turned his back and began walking down the long hallway with you following behind him.

"How are things?" He asked trying to create conversation.

"They're obviously horrible if I'm coming to you for help" you hissed gently. "Not good." You finished.

"I see..." he responded as you both reached his office and he opened the door letting you step in first. Doing so you instantly turned to watch him walk through the door frame as well. You watched him walk towards his desk and seat himself before you approached the chair on the opposing side to sit.

"So go on now" he spoke as he leaned back in his chair intertwining his fingers.

"The production of shimmer had decreased tremendously. Almost to a point there there's nothing being produced because of the lack of materials. As you know silco NEEDS these injections, and because of the current situation. He is not getting his daily injections and it is killing him from the inside out. I know it's selfish of me to even ask for your help considering you've done me wrong so many times. I know I'm gonna regret asking but I'm desperate." You spoke in a pleading manner.

Your fathers eyes scanned the room as if he were thinking.

"How long does he have?" He asked as he brought his eyes back to you.

"I don't know. Months? Days? Hours? I don't know" you spoke honestly. "But I can't let him die without at least giving this an effort. Because I'd give the world for him to be okay."

"Answer this one for me." Your father spoke as he leaned forward in his chair placing his elbows on the edge of the desk and propping his head up in his hands. "Why are you still giving the man the time of day when he betrayed you twice? How can you still hold such strong feelings for him? Now I'm also assuming he doesn't want to be saved. Otherwise he would've been here with you."

"Because I love him and I'm willing to put the past behind us if it means he gets to be healthy and alive with me." You spoke as your mind began questioning. "I shouldn't be giving you the time of day after what you've done to me but here I am. Because I'm desperate to help someone I love" he dwelled on your words as he blinked slowly.

"I know this is something you would never do and I don't deserve to ask you to do this for me but I know deep down the good man mom fell in love with is still down in there." You suddenly ushered out knowing it may trigger his anger yet instead he sat there staring at you.

"Okay"
