Hell-Borne

Life Is Funny

Lyric stood there as Ace shook her, Naomi collaspses on the floor crying, Ace taps her face.

"She's in a emotional shock." The doctor says.

"What's gonna happen to her?" Ace asks.

"Nothing serious, lay her down on the bench."

Ace picks Lyric up, laying her down.

Lyric finishes the topping on the chocolate and vanilla cake she bought, she adds her homemade frosting on top, she adds sprinkles then a bunch of cherries.

Leo walks in, grinning ear to ear.

"Happy birthday!" Lyric says, laying it on the table, Leo sits at the table, he looks up at her.

"Thanks so much!" Leo yells, hugging her tightly. Lyric pats him awkwardly on the back.

"Dig in." Lyric says.

"Aren't you gonna eat some cake with me?" Leo asks.

"That's your cake."

"Don't act brand new, at least take a small peice.....pleeeeaaaase?" Leo asks, making puppy dog eyes.

"Not falling for it." Lyric says, crossing her arms.

Leo pouts.

"Fine, one piece though." Lyric says, grabbing a plate a slicing a super thin slice.

"I knew you couldn't resist my eyes." Leo says with a smirk.

"It was that damn pout of yours." Lyric said, rolling her eyes.

"I know you love me...thanks for doing this." Leo says.

"I'm your sister, this is what I do." Lyric says.

Leo hugs Lyric, she squeezes him tightly.

Lyric opens her eyes to see Ace hoovering over her. She laid in a small hospital bed, she hops off.

"You shouldn't-"

"I can stand Ace." Lyric said.

"What happened?" Lyric asks, walking towards him.

"After the doctor told you that Leo passed....you went into a shock." Ace said, Lyric cries.

"Noooo. No." Lyric says, breaking down.

She cries, Naomi walks inside, mascara running down her face, she hugs Lyric.

Ace looks down.

"Why him?" Lyric asks between cries.

"I don't know sweetie."

"Lyric, I have to go." Ace says.

Lyric nods.

"I'll text you later." Lyric says. Ace kisses her forehead before leaving.

Naomi squeezes her closer to her body, Lyric squeezes her tighter, sobbing like a toddler.

"God knows you need time to grieve..." Naomi says. "I do too."

"How about you stay with me?" Naomi asks.

"Yeah..." Lyric says, her voice wavering.

Naomi leads her to her downstairs and to her car, which was a small black sports car, she sold her old truck for a chance to go to New York.

She sits beside her, Naomi sits beside her.

"Can we go back to my place?" Lyric asks.

"Sure." Naomi says.
