POV: Third Person

"No she's not leaving" Normani argued as she had a tight grip on Y/N's hand

Her parents and her were going back and forth. The married couple wanting Y/N to leave and Normani opposing

"Normani" Derrick said sternly

"No, I'm eighteen now. I can make my own choices and decisions. I don't want her to leave, you've lived your life! Let me live mine!" Normani yelled as best as she could

Y/N stayed put in her spot; on the bed beside the younger girl. The nurse had left the room to give the family some privacy after she discharged Normani and prescribed her the medication to take

"I know that. But this isn't right. You've heard it all, being gay is wrong... kissing and loving the same sex is a sin"

"There's a lot of things that people do everyday that's worse than me kissing another girl" Normani said matter of factly

"Normani, if you agree to leave this hosptial with that girl right there, you walk out of my house, my finances and all those other stuff you 'own'" Mr. Hamilton said making sure to use his air quotes

"I don't even care anymore. I've been gone for a whole week and you didn't even call to see where I was, some parents you are so I'll just go on my own. It's not like you guys care about my whereabouts anyway" Normani replied getting upset all over again

"And how're you gonna get food? Clothes and a place to live?" Her mother chimed in

"Oh don't you worry about that Virgin Mary" the eighteen year old bit back as she got her stuff together

The reason Normani said that was because her mother once confessed she used to do things when she was her age and even older that her father doesn't even have a clue about

Y/N wanted to laugh right then and there but she knew now wasn't about good time to do so

"That's your mother young lady!" Derrick yelled

"I know and your my dad or its more so a title you give yourself for a good impression. If you were my dad you would be happy for me, I've felt more alive and happy than I've ever been when I'm with Y/N but your always saying that church and the Christian life is all you need. That's not all I need. All I need is peace and happiness, there's nothing more than living a life that your unhappy with. Let me breathe!" Normani broke down

Y/N pulled her into a hug and the Hamilton's glared at the gesture. Ignoring their stare, Y/N got Normani's stuff with her free hand and lead her younger girl out of the hospital, Mr and Mrs Hamilton didn't even stop them

By the time they got to Ms. Barbara's house Normani had fallen asleep with tears tracks evident on her face. Y/N carried Normani inside the house and up to Normani's room there

She tucked her in while Noelle took the bag with Normani's stuff into the room. Y/N went to leave but Normani weakly held on to her hand

"Stay with me...please" she said softly

Y/N couldn't resist and kicked off her shoes along with her shirt and got in the bed beside Normani who immediately cuddled into the older girl

Three weeks later

"How do I look?" Normani asked her cousin as she turned to her

Normani is no longer sick and is back to her usual self. She hasn't heard or seen her parents since she left the hospital, of course she felt sad that they couldn't even call to see if she's better or not but she knew that was one of the consequences of standing up for herself
