a month and a half  later ..

my eyes were fluttering open as the lights hit my eyelids and instantly closed as to how bright they were. I felt my hand being gripped on trying to move my body around but I couldn't move and I started to panic as I didn't know what was happening to me.

"Ly"

As I heard my name being called and the familiarity of the voice , I instantly felt warmth in my heart.

"M-mir" i called out.

"yea it's me , baby im so glad your okay" jamir let out a sigh of relief he ain't realize he was holding in.

"What happened" I asked

"Your body crashed out for a month.." jamir said

"a month?!" Lyla said

"yea.." jamir said

"what about my baby , is it.." lyla said

"no no I wouldn't let nothing happen to our child , it's healthy, theirs a feeding tube connected to your body to give it its proper nutrition and water to still grow as if everything normal" jamir reassured her

"ok good" lyla said smiling rubbing her baby , feeling it kick.

"ah omg"

"what"

"here , put your hand right here." Lyla said grabbing his hand putting it in the place the baby kicked as it kicked again stunning them both.

Jamir kissed all her tummy laughing with her loving the site of them being happy all together again.

The doctor came in and gave her a check up to make sure she's all good and removing the cords from her body.

"I'll have a nurse bring you a tray of food" the doctor said

"Don't bother , my homie on his way with real food, yawl can keep that nasty shit." Jamir said as Lyla hit his hand for cursing at the doctor that's only trying to help her.

"Whattt" jamir said shaking his head smirking at her.

"I'm so sorry for him." Lyla pleaded to the doctor as he just smiled at them both.

"It's good to finally see him happy" the doctor walked out the room as it filled with silence as Lyla looked Jamir in his eyes only for him to look away seeing that his smile had faded.

"What happened to you in the months that I was gone?" Lyla asked so curiously to Jamir who only stood up kissing her hand before sighing going back to the couch he made his bed for the past month and a half.

"Nothing , I've been here with you the whole time." Jamir said

"Mir..."

"Look I don't wanna talk about it" Jamir voice escalated as Lyla jumped at the sound of his voice. She turned her head the other way not wanting to see his face anymore.

"Ly"

"Ly"

"Ma im sorry , I didn't mean to.."

"I know" she whispered..

"it's going to be okay, i promise I won't let nobody hurt you every again" he said

"it wasn't your fault love, don't blame yourself" she told me gently holding the side of my face.

"your about six months bae" jamir told her getting off the topic, smiling looking down at her stomach rubbing it in small circles.

xay, eli and brooke all came over to the hospital fast as ever once jamir gave them the call that she woke up. lyla was filled with lots of love and tights hugs.

"ok brooke geez, can't get air of my lungs shit" lyla said coughing ah li

"sorry" brooke said embarrassed that she kinda over did it.

"yea damn b" xay said shaking his head at her before laughing

"ok not too much" brooke said as everybody was laughing at it except eli.

i guess they still haven't made up lyla thought to herself as she noticed the distance between each other.

"uhh do y'all mind if i be in here alone with eli" lyla asked to everyone as they all stared around at eachother before nodding and leaving out as xay did behind brooke and jamir left a kiss on her forehead then lips then stomach before leaving the room closing the door behind him.

Lyla tried to sit up for the first time today holding her arms out to hug him but was in pain as eli came over and gently layed her back down laughing at her failed attempt to be loving and hugged her anyway.

"are you ok?" lyla said in his ear as he pulled away from her looking down at the floor trying to figure out a response.

"no" eli admitted shamefully

"why? what's wrong, you know u can talk to me" lyla said patting a small space on the hospital bed for him to sit down and talk to her.

"after the dinner i was all fucked up and didn't know what to do like ts with brooke and your brother messes with my head and I didn't know how to handle it so I resorted to drinking lean and taking percs to make me feel numb because I don't love and don't know how to but with her I thought it was possible. i didn't grow up with a dad and my mom was barely there for me, I had to do everything myself growing up and loving properly or being loved properly wasn't one of them".

"I probably can't relate but it's ok to hurt, it's ok to feel what you are feeling, it's all natural human emotion but i would rather you confide in me or find better ways of expressing your feelings then doing things that will fuck up your health physically and mentally. i don't want you to die and i know for a fact that them niggas out their in that hallway doesn't want you gone either. Take it day by day and I'm here if you ever need anything ok?" Lyla expressed to him grabbing his hand looking him in his eyes with a small smile.

they held eye contact until eli leaned in pecking her lips saying thank you after pulling away.

he made that face that he shouldn't have done it but it's ok i won't tell.

she nodded to him as a tear dropped from his face and she wiped it before he left having everyone else come back in the room.
