Rufus Humphrey was lying on the couch when his cell phone rudely buzzed him awake; from inside his jean pocket.
"Hello."
"Uh..Rufus. I need to speak to you."
Surprised at the voice on the other end of the line, he replied. "Lil, what's up?"
"Can I come over?"
Lilys faint voice sparked concern in Rufus, this was Lily Van der Woodson what did she want?
"Sure, but why?"
"Uh umm....See you in 5."
With that the call ended, leaving a very dazed look on Rufus' face, wandering what the hell Lily wanted.
It was in fact only 2 minutes larer that the front door opened and Lily made her way through the Humphrey home to the living room where Rufus was watching an old video recording of one his old concerts. He looked up to see a tear stained Lillian Van der Woodson holding an old duffell bag, which could have actually been his. Seeing something was obviously wrong, Rufus went to pull her into a hug, but she pushed him gently away.
"Whats wrong Lily?"
"Umm....Can I sit down?" She asked.
This was typical Lily, beat around the problem, despite his annoyance his concern pulled through.
"Of course. Would you like a drink? I think I'm all out of Tequila and Champagne but I have got Coffee." He laughed.
Lily giggled. "That would be nice."
God did he love it when she smiled, it just amazed him, it brought back so many memories of past situations. Rufus smirked his signature smile as he left the room to make drinks.
He returned a minute later with two mugs; he handed one to Lily as he drank at his own. He had just sat down on the opposite side of the couch when Lily sipped at hers.
"This is so not coffee!" Lily commented smiling.
"I know, I thought you needed hot chocolate more than you needed coffee."
"Well thank you Rufus."
"Your welcome!"
A comfortable silence lay between them for a moment, until Rufus interrupted.
"So what's bugging you Lil?"
Lily's face fell. "Umm...Uhh."
Rufus reached over and placed his hand on her arm in encouragement; Lily gulped and stared at him right in the eye.
"........I'm pregnant."
Rufus let go of Lily as his face fell, just as Lily's had done only moments prior. Determined to not let it show he composed himself quickly, but not quickly enough as Lily saw it.
"I'm so happy for you." Rufus tried to act fairely happy but he was aware his words sounded cold.
"Rufus." She grabbed his arm. "It's yours."
"Oh my God Lily.
Rufus went into shock and his mouth opened. "But...How?....Are you s-ure? What about Ba-?"
"I haven't slept with Bart in over......Look it's yours and I understand if-" Lily looked at him with concern.
"Understand what.....that your pregnant to my child-"
They both stopped talking and stared at each other, both near to tears, in shock if anything.
"I'm sorry." Lily spoke barely audibly.
"Sorry for what?" Rufus took Lily's hand in his and moved closer wrapping his other hand around her shoulders. "That we're going to have a beautiful baby? I love you and that is all that matters."
Lilys heart skipped a beat at those three words, he'd told her he'd loved her lots of times but this, this moment felt the most real. She rested her head on his shoulder and whispered:
"I love you too."
It was Rufus' turn to be astounded and in response he turned to face her, their eyes connected their hearts and when they leant in to kiss, they knew that this could work, despite the nature of the situation, they would make it work or they'd be damned.
A/N 1st Chapter over!!I really should be doing my Geography homework but Gossip Girl is so much fun!!! I've always been a Lily/Rufus fan but until yesterday I didn't actually know they got together as I've missed TONS of episodes. More is yet to come but be warned I'm a real bad updater and to add to that I have no idea to go with this....so all ideas are welcome!!
