Love isn't a chemical. (Rick x O.C.) (Rick and Morty fanfic) [Hold/maybe ended]

Eleven

(A/N: For story purposes, I'm doing season two out of order.)

Lily rubbed her eyes as she woke up. There wasn't any music going, so she knew the party was over.

"How long was I out?" She mumbled, rubbing her head. She turned over and heard a paper crinkle under her. "Huh?" She pulled it out and noticed it was Rick's handwriting.

Hey, Lil

You were still sleeping when the party was over. Actually, you slept through a lot, but it's all good now. Also, just to let you know, I froze time for like six months, so you know, don't touch me or the kids for a while.

Love you,
Rick

"That fucking idiot." Lily jumped out of the bed, throwing on her lab coat. She stormed out of the room. "Rick! Where in the hell are you?!" She was greeted with nothing but silence.

"Jesus fucking Christ." Lily pulled out her phone and called Beth.

"Hey, Mom! How are you feeling? Dad said you weren't feeling good when we came home."

"I'm fine, sweetie. Where are you right now?"

"Going to ice cream with Jerry with some money Dad gave us."

"And where's your father?"

"He was home when we left. Why? Is everything okay?" Beth asked, worried.

"Everything is fine, sweetie. I just wanted to know. See you when you get home." Lily hung up the phone and went to the garage. Rick's car was there. Same thing with his portal gun. Lily pinched her nose and pulled out her time crystal, plugging it into her phone. She dialed Rick's number.

"Heeey, Lily, what's up?" Rick said. Lily squinted when she heard two versions of his voice.

"You caused a fucking time fracture."

"I didn't! Morty and Summer did! I've been trying to fix it!" Rick yelled.

"Well, you better fix fast because I would hate to be the one to tell Beth that you and her children died because YOU FROZE TIME FOR SIX MONTHS!"

"Okay, yeah, that's my fault. I'll fix it. Don't worry."

"All you ever do is make me worry. Especially when it comes to the lives of our grandchildren." She hung up the phone, snatching out the crystal. "This is his problem. There's nothing I can do." She pinched her nose and went to the living room. It was quiet, and everything is clean.

"At least he got one thing right while I was out." She shook her head, going to the fridge. As Lily looked through it, she got more worried about Morty and Summer. She checked her watch. She had no idea how long they've been there or how much time they had left.

"Uggggh!" She groaned, going to the garage. When she walked in, she saw Rick, Morty, and Summer trying to get back to certainty, but Summer and Morty were all over the place. Just like that, they were gone again.

"What the fuck is going on in there?" Lily said, pulling out her phone and crystal. When she tried to call Rick, it went to voicemail. "Of course he would only have one." She sat in Rick's chair and waited. She went to Rick's room to grab a few blueprints from out of her bag. When she got to the door for the garage, she heard cheering.

"Oh, you did it!" She heard Morty yell. "You fixed it!"

"Yeah, I did. Now, keep those collars on so you don't break your weak ass time again." A voice Lily didn't recognize said.

"How long exactly do we have to wear these things? They're really embarrassing." Rick complained. Lily rolled her eyes.

"Well, I say since you're going to time prison, I'd say you can keep them on forever." Lily's eyes widened.
