Coco Pov
Its been a week now im since Larry has been here and his presence has been a big help. I now before I stated I didn't need him but I kind of do. I still would've got shit done but I'm not as stressed. Plus Alex and him are obsessed with each other and I'm kind of jealous.

On the last ring Laurent answers

Lau: I busy

Lau: you forgive him so easy

Lau: I need break from you
Coco: why am I being punished for his words
Lau: are you done
Coco: handsome
Lau: I no you handsome and you no my belle we not together
Coco: fuck you Laurent
Coco ends call
Coco cries softly not believing what Lau said about her. A part of her knew he didn't mean it but it still hurt the same. Blaze walks past the room after checking in on Alex and sees her crying.
Blaze: why you crying
Coco: nothing
Blaze: I thought you call Lau
Coco: he didn't answer
Blaze: why you cry then
Coco: just drop it please Larry. I need some air
Coco gets up and walks out the front door standing on the porch. Blaze knows she's lying and he heard her say handsome and everyone knows she's calls Lau handsome.
Blaze pov
What did Lau say to her to make her cry. We not on good terms so he wouldn't tell me probably wouldn't answer but it worth try i call from coco phone
Calling handsome❤️‍🔥
Lau: What Courtney damn

Lau: goodbye
Blaze: No what you say to coco

Lau: crying ?
Blaze: yes crying
Lau: we have argument
Blaze: about what
Lau: nothing it between me and her give her phone
Blaze: no tell me
Lau: she use me first she play me then she use me to help her with Alex and hide from you just to fall right back in you arms
Blaze: Lau you no mean that
Lau: I do
Blaze: you hate me not coco no do that to her y'all are to close and from experience don't say something you no mean. She love you very much more then me and you being mad at her breaks her
Lau: is that all I have to go
Blaze: yes
Lau ends call
Blaze sighs and not knowing his presence would bring so much drama and confusion. What did Lau want her to do not allow him to see his son. Is he that bad of a person sure he's done borderline unforgiving things but Alex is what brings him and Courtney together. If not for Alex there would be no them and he recognizes it. He knows the real reason Lau is mad and it not coco fault but it still how he feel.
Coco walks back in the door to see blaze staring at her with sympathetic eyes.
Coco: what
Blaze: I talked to Lau
Coco:* rolls eyes* cool
Blaze: he say you use him
Coco: yea I know he made it clear
Blaze: belle he no mean it
Coco: he did
Blaze: he just hurt because  of me
Coco: he was so cold
Blaze: he feel he chosen last like he said I chose him last and you chose him last because you play him for me
Coco: I wasn't consciously choosing him last and I knew what  I did was fucked up and he was going to be bothered by it. Honestly I knew he wasn't over what happened I just was hoping  he was because I didn't wanna lose him. He was a great lover but a even better friend and I desperately needed one. His spirit just brings me peace. He has a hold on me at first I thought it was because he was my first but it's deeper I can't explain it's just a feeling
Blaze: I ask you question and be real
Coco: what
Blaze: you still want my brother
Coco: when I was pregnant honestly yes but not currently. He was so caring and made my pregnancy so easy it felt normal. Eating with your family felt like I was experiencing normalcy for the first time
Blaze: yea
Coco: your family seems amazing why choose to sell drugs
Blaze: it not always good things have to happen to turn good
Coco: like what
Blaze: I no want to talk about it
Coco: *sighs* ok

Coco: you know as much as you hate blaze when your angry or hurt your words are the same. I'm sorry if you feel like I used you to help with Alex I really am it was just I didn't know about your brother and I wanted Alex to have some  figure and I felt you were the closer thing to a father figure. Laurent you have a hold on me and it's deeper than you taking my virginity I just..... you mean so much to me and losing you would be devastating and I don't want you to be mad at me an-
Lau: Courtney

Coco ends call
She sobs as she tries to finish her homework. Losing Lau was the last thing in her bingo cards and a she is in shock.
*4 months later*
Alex is now 5 months and a hand full. They moved out the condo into blaze house that's in LA which is closer to Tyler and Dre which she's grateful for. Coco hasn't heard from Lau since their conversation and she would be lying if she wasn't hurt. She yearned his presence and he hasn't seen or asked about nephew in 4 months which kind of angered her. He even started talking to blaze again but not her and that confuses and hurts her. Her and blaze relationship hasn't turned back romantic yet so far they've purely been coparenting and he still lives in his house in Compton but their only 30 mins away really 20 something the way blaze speeds. She is now 20 years old and had an okay birthday she wished Lau could've been there to celebrate with her. She is currently doing tummy time with Alex who is babbling up a storm
Coco: hey big man what you talking about
Alex smiles and starting moving his arms she picks him up putting him the car seat so they can head to Tyler for a visit. Blaze is dealing with Chance he wouldn't say about but she hopes it's not the same bullshit
She takes a picture of Alex putting it on her story

Coco explains to Tyler that she has to leave and he helps her get Alex settled in the car before she drives off heading to meet Lau who she hasn't seen or spoken to in months.
15 minutes later
She pulls up to the drive way to see Laurent Mercedes and parks. She looks in the backseat to see Alex knocked out and smiles. She get out the car taking out  the car seat and shutting the door. She walks to the front door when she hears a door close assuming Lau has just got out his car. She unlocks it siting the car seat on the floor letting Alex sleep but unstrapping him. She's hears the door close and lock and sighs turning around to be met with lau

They both stare at each other Coco: HiLau: hey Coco bites her lip and jogs towards Laurent burying her face in his chest

They both stare at each other
Coco: Hi
Lau: hey
Coco bites her lip and jogs towards Laurent burying her face in his chest. He sighs wrapping his arms around her as they rock back and forth. This last for a few second  which feel like minutes before she pulls away with a scowl on her face.
Coco: 4 fucking months Laurent what the fuck
Lau: I know I just need space
Coco: for 4 months ? And you started talking to Larry again so you needed to *voice breaks* get away from me
Lau: look
Coco: I understand if you hate me or don't want me anymore but I wish you could've at least seen your nephew
Lau: I no hate you and I sorry I go 4 months with no speaking  it not to hurt you. I just needed space plus I though you hated me
Coco: I could never hate you Lau
Lau: how Alex
Coco: he's great he's 5 months now he's  a big baby
Lau: that good my brother acting right being a good boyfriend and papa
Coco: actually we're not together we just coparent and yea he's been a good dad
Lau: oh
Coco: can we fix our friendship or build a new one
Lau: you put  me on spot umm give me time to think and I get back to you
Coco: *whispers* ok
Just as Lau is about to speak the door unlocks and in walks blaze. She says hi to him and tells him Alex is sleep and she's going upstairs. Lau watches her go upstairs and sighs feeling shitty for treating her like he is. He takes a deep breath and sighs deciding to think about that later and talk to his brother
Blaze: hey bro
Lau: hey
Blaze: you change hair
Lau: yea I got braids
Blaze: it nice
Lau: thanks
Blaze: want to see Alex
Lau: *smiles* sure
Blaze walks toward the car seat as he hears Alex babbling and smiles pulling him out the car seat. Alex stretches as Lau watches in adoration and amazement.
Blaze: hey man you have good nap
Alex smiles and grabs blaze face
Blaze: want to hold him
Lau: okay
Blaze: this be funny since we identical
Blaze hands Alex to lau awaiting Alex reaction. He looks at Lau and smiles and Lau introduces himself
Lau: hi baby i you uncle Lau
Lau kisses Alex cheeks making Alex go into a fit of laughter as blaze observes smiling happy to have his brother back. Coco without their knowledge is watching at the top of the stairs smiling at Alex reaction to Lau  but that alone feeling she felt when blaze and Lau weren't messing with her after the finding out her horrible plan the first time has came back and she walks into the bedroom isolating herself. It seems both Larry and Laurent have fell out of love with her and she can't bear it.

Is Laurent being harsh to coco? Will there relationship be fixed or ever look the same as it was ?

What has Larry been doing with Chance ?
