Again, Lila's name is translated as 'Lye-lah. Her nickname Li is 'Lye, and it'll make sense in a few chapters or so.
''"Hey, Blakey." Lila whispers. "Was Auntie nice to you?"
A brunette steps around the corner.
"Hi Kelly, how was he?" Lila almost whispers, trying not to wake the sleeping baby in her arms.
"An angel, as per usual. Takes after Tori."
Lila grins and hugs Kelly. "Thank you so much for taking him overnight again."
"It's not a big deal. He's literally the perfect child."
"Thank you so much. I have to go though, Tori's waiting on me."
"I actually gotta go too, we have Jackson today." Kelly gives her a knowing look and disappears around the corner.
Lila looks down at the small infant in her arms.
"Hey Blakey." She whispers again. The baby's eyes flutter open to reveal small brown irises. Lila smiles and holds the child close to her chest as she walks out to her car, the December air sending a chill through her.
The baby seat's already in her blue convertible.

Tori smiles as Lila hands her the baby.
"Hey sweetie."
Gurgling.
"Momma loves you baby."
More gurgling.
Lila rubs her shoulders. "It's hard to believe he's only eight months."
"I know; he seems so grown up already."
Just then, Blake starts wailing at the highest pitch possible.
"You want me to make dinner? I know you need to feed him…" Lila trails off and Tori nods, a lump forming in her throat.
Lila gives her a soft smile and Tori starts to nurse the boy in her arms.

"So how'd it go?"
"Her girlfriend is everything I'm not, Paul."
"That was high school, Jade, you've both changed."
"Her, definitely. Me, not so much."
"Well, have you talked to any of the others? I'm sure they'd all like to hear from you both."
"I don't know Paul, I was sort of a major bitch at HA, I don't want to become that person again."
Blue eyes stare into her own turquoise and he lifts a muscular arm to stroke her cheek.
"If you weren't with Darren, I'd think you were coming on to me." Jade jokes and he cracks a smile, letting his hand fall.
"I just think you should give it a shot."
"I don't know, I think I shouldn't really contact her. I don't want to hurt." She states blandly, and her eyes grow cold. "I'm not setting myself up for another one."
Paul rolls his eyes and turns on his computer, getting ready to Skype with Darren. Jade gets up softly and moves to her own bed, falling asleep to the sounds of Darren's low chuckle and Paul's rolling laugh.
"I want a love like that." She whispers to herself before closing her eyes.

"Thanks for making dinner honey." Tori smiles weakly and puts her boob away. "He was really hungry I guess."
Lila smiles back. Tori pats the baby's back and he burps, white foam bubbling out over his lips. The cloth on her shoulder catches it all, thus saving her outfit from another mess.
"It's okay Boo, mommy's here." She whispers and the baby gurgles.
"So what did you make tonight?" Tori smiles at the blonde in front of her, who smiles back.
"Veggie Lasagna."
"Yummy." Tori smiles and notices her child is asleep. "Oh, baby's asleep."
"…You did not just call Blakey-Bear 'baby'."
"You did not just call my son 'Blakey-Bear'."
"Touché."
Lila looks at her phone and her eyes light up. "Mom and Dad are at their private house in New Haven…they want me to visit."
Tori smiles. "When?"
"Tomorrow, they had to make it short notice so the paps wouldn't catch on…is that okay? You'll be okay?" she rushes out.
"Yeah, of course Li, go do your thing!"
Lila grins and types back a response before starting to pack a bag.
She looks at her phone and frowns. "They want me to start driving tonight."
"That's fine, Lila, we'll be fine. Don't worry about it."
She gives the brunette a soft smile before finishing packing and giving her girlfriend a hug. "I love you." She says, albeit muffled by Tori's shoulder.
Blake giggles and his little dimples show as he smiles.
Lila kisses his forehead and grabs her keys.
"Love you babe. I'm sorry it's so short notice…"
"It's fine, Li. I'll call you!"
"Bye!"
Tori sighs as her girlfriend leaves and Blake starts to giggle.
"Well little buddy, I am incredibly bored. Your momma is incredibly bored."
She picks up her own phone and scrolls through her contacts, settling on Jade.
"You wanna come over? I have someone you should meet."
I hope everyone enjoyed chapter 2.
Again, this story is not mine originally. It was 'moonecheese1331's', but she gave me the story and rights to do new chapters and add the flashback's.
Blessed Be.
