simpler things like watching

Laurent P.O.V

A few days later ..

When I tried texting Kiera, she hardly responded . When I invited her back to my hotel to play UNO again, she declined . The very first time I had called her, she immediately picked up but now I was starting to suspect that she was dodging me . We were staying in New York for a while and for a while I meant the rest of January. We had a dance workshop coming up and I honestly wanted to invite Kiera but the way she's been dodging me I wasn't sure if she'd come or not . I took my chances anyway , taking my cellphone out of my backwards pants I searched through my contacts to find her number. She was saved as 'girlfriend New York City', pressing on my screen her number started dialing .

"Hello ? .."

"Kiki, my girl wassup ?"

"Just ... been tired" Her voice was slightly lowered , almost as if whispering, I continued with my response .

" I want to see you . What have you been up to ? " On my end I could hear her breath through the phone , like a sigh , "been busy ..."

"Well if you not too busy , I want you to come to my workshop ." quickly I texted her the address before placing my cellphone back to my ear .

"Oh .. I know where that's at . I'll see what I can do Laurent "

" okai, try to come or I come to you" I joked at her wondering if she would really let me see her .

"Alright I'll come ... seriously"

"Okai" she didn't sound too happy but I was now sure she would come and watch me dance .

*****

Kiera's P.O.V

There was nothing much I could do, I was tied up on my end with a pissed off mother, a pleading aunt, and myself running away from my problems. I wanted to just get away from everything and to me, Laurent calling my cellphone was a way out . When I received the information to the work shop it was held for tonight on 55th street.  This is me running away from my problems, my issues , my responsibilities.

Maybe an hour or two go by, to the point where the sun was starting to set. My mother is not home to bother me . She's out again, having a drink or two , I wonder for a split second about her safety and how will she get home but those thoughts quickly leave  my mind once my phone rings . I smirk to myself when the word "Boyfriend" comes  across the screen of my cellphone , a feeling of relief hit me. I am glad to see him calling me once more , I answer ,

"Hello ?"

"You still coming right ?" I pause for a second,

"Yes." I was not going to flake out on Laurent. I already had my mindset on going .

*******

From the nap I took to the trains being delayed, I was late and  was also pretty sure the workshop was over . When I arrived, there was no line outside but there sure was posters of the twins out front . I walked inside the building where I was greeted by two male security guards. Both of them taller and much bigger than I was but not so much taller then the twins.

"Can I help you ?" One man said to me . He was African American, like me , some what handsome with a chiseled chin and thick eyebrows. A few seconds went by before I answered his question.

"Ah yes, I was invited for the twins workshop... is it still going on ?" Immediately the bodyguard shook his head 'No' . As quick as this man had shook his head 'no' , as if on que I had already given up. Welp that was the end of that . The workshop was over and I'm sure anything that were to be held after was for people with special tickets . Deep down, I knew I was in the wrong. For an unknown reason I felt regret, I shouldn't have promised Laurent that I would go to the workshop if I wasn't gonna make it on time. My imagination had begun to run wild of Laurent, only imagining his facial expression of disappointment. Although we hardly knew each other, he had stated he wanted a friendship . I should have kept my end of the bargain. Being so caught up in my emotions, I took out my cellphone to text Laurent an apology . Right then and there my phone started ringing, the words read "Boyfriend" . Immediately I could feel my heart pump harder and faster as the sensation of butterflies tingled in my stomach, in a way I was very nervous to pick up the phone but I did so anyway .

"Hello ? .." If only he could hear the way my heart pounded against my chest as I answered.

"Kiki next time tell me you no coming okai?" Laurent's voice was a bit horse and his breathing was heavy through the phone.

"I- I'm sorry Laurent . I'm currently outside the building -"

"Where ?"

"Uh .. just outside where these two men are blocking the entrance"

"Oh okai ....We leave for the exit now anyway. Stay there." The phone clicked, Laurent was no longer on the other end of the phone.

A few minutes went by before I heard a crowd of commotion coming towards the exit . It was the twins and a whole entourage of people surrounding them. The crowd of people stopped just outside of the building infront of the security guards making it difficult to approach them .

"Alright everyone , ya'll cant stand here blocking the entrance !" Yelled the second security guard that was not so handsome as the first. As the crowd of people slowly started dispersing, there revealed the guys signing autographs and taking some photos .

I met eyes with Larry, who decided to ignore my presence by continuing to sign autographs. I watched for a few more seconds of Larry before he turned to Laurent speaking to him, there Laurent, who was just taking a few pictures decided to break through the crowd and walk straight up to me .

"Go to  the black car parked right down the block . ..Wait  ova (over) there for us. Okai?" Laurent pointed towards an all black BMW car, a beauty it sure was . I nodded my head and quickly walked towards the car, as quick as he directed me - I moved in that manner . When I had finally reached the car, deciding  on my own I leaned on the hood of the car . By the time I had the chance to look up at the guys and their fans surrounding them, Larry had already broke free from the crowd , walking towards the car .

"Get in ...." His order was quick and stern, unlocking the door in the process. I did as I was told, jumping into the back seat of the car , sitting behind the passenger seat where I was met by Larry once again who sat behind the driver seat .The car smelled of that new car smell, it must've been a rental. But I had to ask one question.

"How come your not in the front seat or the drivers ?" He was texting away , looking down at his phone before we met eyes.

" why, 'cause I have keys ? ..." I felt a bit embarrassed but still continued the conversation.

"Yes"

"Is just to open the doors ...." he began to chuckle to himself before speaking again " you no think?"  Instead of answering  his smart ass ,I responded with another question .

"You don't like me ? " His chuckling had died down, his facial expression had changed and was replaced with a smile .

"Sure~" Larry dragged out the word which in response I rolled my eyes .

"I don't know you. I help you on the dance floor one day, that's it .... you not my friend or Laurent . We trust no one" 

His choice of words had stung at my feelings but at the same time I could relate . I could relate in a sense of not knowing each other , only Laurent was trying to get to know me while Larry was showing me that he could careless .

"I would like to get to know you guys more ..."

"Why?" His question was quick, right after my heart felt response which forced me to think quick on my feet.

"Because your dope dancers  and Your not the only one that saved me ... Laurent did too" my voice became small and I broke my stare down with Larry . I was .. embarrassed once more as the memories of the incident at the mall flowed into my mind .

"When ?.."

"At the mall ..."

"He save you from a fall or something ?" He was beginning to make me feel like an idiot which was almost like answering his first smart ass question, was I really thinking ? Specially from what I was going to say next .

"He saved me from ... a guy that was ... bothering me ... in a way"

"A guy ?"

"Where was us ?" What ? ... From 'us' he must've referred to Adelia.

"Not there..."

"So he save you from this guy ?"

"Yes... Laurent took me inside the bathroom." For some reason my memories felt foggy and distorted . It wasn't a lie, we were in the bathroom but it felt different saying it out loud .

"Okai.. stop" He cut me off as his face told it all . He wanted to laugh in my face... bad as his smile grew larger .

I could feel myself getting irritated to clear up any funny thoughts he was beginning to have .

"We went into the bathroom and"

"Stop" he laughed as he spoke the word,

"What's funny?"

"You kiss or something ? ..this a love story now?"

"What?"

"My broth'a no save you ... he don't care ."

"So why am I here ?"

He paused, he must've questioned himself. That's when both front car doors opened . Laurent hopped  in the passenger seat and there was a guy who must've been the driver. It was then  Larry passed the keys to the Caucasian driver while leaning forward . He spoke in French .

"Laurent c'est quoi ce bordel? (Laurent what the fuck is this ?)" Larry's tone seemed to be on the line of irritation and possibly shock, he quickly pointed at me using his thumb.

"What ?" Laurent turned his head in my direction, his eyes looking around as if he was looking for something then turned back to Larry.

"qu'est-ce qu'elle veut dire, tu la sauves? ( what the fuck she mean you save her ?)"

There was a silence between the two and the driver pulled off, through the thick silence you can hear Laurent sucking his teeth rather fast while he faced forward once again.

"il y avait un baiseur qu'elle connaissait."( there was some fucker she knew)" Laurent spoke out loud , his voice was deeper in his native language then when he spoke in English .

" elle le baisait ( she was fucking him )" I noticed that Larry's voice was also a bit deeper as he turned  his head to look out the backseat window which was rolled up. I felt out of the loop. I wanted to speak but couldn't, instead I began to wonder where we was going .

"  tu ne le sais pas ( you don't know that)" My eyes followed Laurent's voice to see him shaking his head , he came off as a bit emotional which made Larry jolt,  leaning forward in his seat once more speaking closer into Laurent's ear this time.

" mon frère et tu ne le sais pas ( my brother and you don't know that )"

" elle pleurait ( she was crying)"

"Wow .." was the only english word I could make out as Larry scoffed, I looked at his figure, he completely ignored my presence, he seemed bothered by Laurent's last response. I watched as he sat back into the seat but then sat up again, " tu ne sais pas de la merde à son sujet ( you don't know shit about her )"

" Bye Larry .. ta merde parlante maintenant ( Bye Larry .. your speaking shit now)" 

" Et vous non? mon frère ces tatouages ​​n'ont alors plus de sens ( And your not ? My brother those tattoos are meaningless then)"

There was a quick 'ugh' that came from Laurent then he said "Shut up Larry .. Kiki are you okay back there ? My broth'a argue with me." Laurent turned his head to me, before smiling at me . I guess this was him checking on me but his tone was more like he was apologizing even though he never did apologize.

"Yes . I'm fine , just wondering where are we going ?"

For a second there I could've sworn I seen Laurent think about what to say, "home for now .. then later we go to the club. Want to come ?"

" je ne peux pas croire cela ( I cant believe this )" I could hear Larry mumble in French as he still looked  out the back seat window shaking his head in unison.

" I don't think that would be a good idea . .if it's a club I might not be able to get in"

"To young .." Larry scoffed while shaking  his head not looking my way . Laurent seemed to look annoyed  by his brother responding as he glanced at him  but then faced me - " how old are you ?" I was silent a bit almost nervous to reply . "I'm nineteen."

" .... good ."  His words seemed almost shaky   as Larry responded with a puff of air escaping his nostrils .

"Don't worry . I'm legal" I joked in a dry manner trying to make this already heavy atmosphere of the guys going back and forth lighter.

"I know . I'm not worried Kiki. You smoke so I was thinking you too young"  in a way I felt bad both revealing my age and that he knew I smoked.

"Maybe I should go home first ..." I suggested, I was beginning to feel a bit uneasy.

"Why ?" Laurent questioned. I had to quickly come up with a lie .

"To change clothes."

"Alright then. We take you home"

"Oh no, I could just get dropped off-"

"What ? ... it's dark now. Just tell me where you live" Laurent tone of voice got serious.

"Alright then .." I gave the driver my address, we arrived there only by a few minutes.

"See.. was that so hard ?" Laurent kept a smile on his face as he playfully teased me. He made the thick atmosphere that surrounded our heads much lighter. I shook my head 'no' .

"Come, I walk you . No harm there." We both got out of the car, and proceeded to walk towards my building. Immediately I felt the need to apologize once more.

"I'm sorry Laurent ..." He quickly looked confused.

"Fa (for) what ?"

"For not being able to watch you dance . And my age and -" I couldn't look him in the eye while speaking .

"Kiera ... Is (it's) okai . I no care . Now come." This was the first time he said my full name, he seemed bothered but came off as smooth as I opened the main front door to the building before opening another door to get inside to reveal the different apartment doors . I felt good having some one walk me inside my building, Laurent was such a gentleman. We began walking up the flight of stairs , " you know .... I stay in New York all of January .."

"Oh yeah ? ." We walked up the stairs rather slow making the mood more romantic it seemed as  I was ahead of him by a couple of steps when I looked back at him to respond. When we got infront of my doorstep I turned to face Laurent , we were both silent for a while - he broke the silence once again . " come ..." He took my hand and placed a kiss on the back of it but when our eyes met he had a look that seemed unsatisfied . There he stood tall before leaning towards me , my heart raced when I thought he was going for a kiss on the lips but it was then  he planted a kiss on my forehead. His lips were warm and soft as I fell  at ease, it felt right, he backed away from me slowly,  locking eyes with me - " I want to know you more ..." he spoke in a soft tone. " I want to know you more too" repeating the same words he spoke to me. I didn't have anything better to say.

"Kiera ! That's you ?!" I looked back at the door that was behind me, "Okay Laurent! Time to go" I tried to shove  Laurent down the stairs  with my hands placed on his broad shoulders but he was laughing a little from my nervousness stopping every step to laugh at me . "What ? .. why the rush ?" He joked but there was nothing funny about what was to come next . The apartment door flung open, exposing my drunken mother , her eyes glanced over the situation quickly.

"You bitch ! ...You are fucking!! And don't say Your not. You was gonna bring him here in my house to have sex with him weren't you ?!" This was something I didn't want anybody to see or hear, but Laurent was right there in the mix of it all. He was silent as he wasn't even half way down the stairs while he watched, I had to respond quick . "No ma ! He's my friend, I wasn't going to fuck him!" My response must've threw her off while she looked even more pissed . My mother turned her attention to Laurent as she pointed to him , " You stay right there motherfucker, where ever you going, your taking her wit' you! She can't stay here... getcha' shit and go Kiera." She yanked me by the arm, physically she was stronger than me, pulling me into the house. From behind I could hear Laurent's voice ,

" My pleasure ..." as he followed behind us inviting himself into my home . The embarrassment took over me, surely he looked at the amount of empty bottles that were scattered all around . When I had looked back at him though his eyes and face read different - he was just focused on me with a blank expression.

Kiera's P.O.V

" A threesome ? .... with who?" I questioned Laurent who still kept my hands in his own , he turned to his twin that sat on the nightstand then looked back at me.

"Well ... with men" He spoke while shrugging in unison . Quickly the offense settled in, snatching  my own hands from the grasp of Laurent's - twisting my face into a disgusted look. Not even in fantasies have I thought about getting a train ran on me by two guys and now Laurent was asking me have I ever been in one . I watched as Laurent rose from kneeling, his back now facing me.

"See Larry , she no like that" Laurent spoke to his twin which in response rolled his eyes, the response making me feel even more offended I decided to speak .

"So you don't believe me or something ?" I directed my question towards Larry who actually looked shocked that I spoke for a second.

"Yes I believe you...Kiera" I don't think he really did believe me but instead of responding back I took his answer and held on to it.

"I'm sorry Kiera" said Laurent as he turned to me.

"No, it's fine" I said . I decided to stand off the bed and put my shoes on , I should get going anyway .

"You leaving ?" Asked Laurent who looked a little shocked, "Yeah ... I gotta go" I wasn't lieing, I had to honestly leave and go home - just so my mother wouldn't get worried .

"Lau, let her leave" as if Laurent was trying to stop me but Larry still spoke as if Laurent was .

"Chill bro .. she leaving now"

"Yeah sorry ... I gotta go now. Maybe next time we play again Laurent ?"

"Okay, I call for next time"  I then proceed to put on my coat heading towards the front door .

****

Opening the front door of my apartment I can hear my mother having a deep conversation on the phone, she's cursing and doesn't seem to have noticed my presence of entering yet . I'm glad , I can sneak past her bedroom and into my own room without being bothered .

"Kiera ? ..."  My mother speaks to me in such a demanding tone, I turn to face her as she stands by the living room  entrance. She's in her night gown, her face looks worn and Carmel skin looks darkened by the lighting of the living room , she must be drunk again , we both stand in silence staring back at one another . Her face is frowning at me before speaking "So.. where did you go ?" My mother's question throws me off, I forgot that I didn't tell her where I was going I just left without notice .

"Out ... for some air" She looks at me with a weird look as if she knows I'm lieing .

"Really ? . So you needed air for almost two hours ?" Her voice rises somewhat then lowers, I respond.

"Yes .. to smoke."

"Well you need to quit"  I feel the need to apologize  and so, I do .

"Sorry" I say while  unbuttoning my coat in the process, removing it, I turn to place it on one of the kitchen stools. When I turn back at my mother, her eyebrows are furrowed, beginning to squint at me as her mouth is frowning even more, I look at her with a questioning look .

"You been fucking again ?" She says angrily, her words scare me, fucking again, I haven't been touched in almost two whole years. I was utterly confused and nervous when she stepped towards me. Not even answering her first question , Her arm reaches out to me and with her right hand she uses it to clutch onto both sides of my cheeks. Then she aggressively turns my face towards the left , her right, lifting my head slightly as she takes her index finger from her left hand and poke at my neck . My mother towers over me , pushing my body backwards, to be pressed against the kitchen island before raising her voice again "Yes you have .. you been fucking !"

"Mama, I haven't !" My voice rises to match hers, I'm afraid of my mother when she's like this. My mother proceeds to shake my head in the process of letting me go , " then what's that shit on your neck ?!" Confusion hovers over my mind when I run towards the bathroom mirror. There it is , a medium sized purplish hickey on my neck, just above my collarbone .

I turn to walk back into the space where the kitchen and living room meet and where my mother stands . I'm afraid to speak, afraid to explain myself but I do so anyway .

" I was playing a ga-" My mother cuts me off with shouting words , " Was it Aron ? You been fucking him haven't you ?!"

"No!" I shout as tears begin to form in my eyes making my vision to appear blurry. My mother becomes quiet, her face holds no regrets at accusing me of having sex with that man .

"All this sex your having , you should go visit that damn baby !" My mother yells . I'm afraid to move and get my things and my mother notices it, she walks pass me and heads towards her room, shutting the door behind her .

I quickly wipe the tears from my eyes using my forearm and grab my coat , I'm doing as she say .

****

The baby , stays at my mother sisters house. The cab ride to my aunts house is only fifteen minutes and when I arrive unexpectedly without notice my aunt still greets me with open arms . She's aware why I came to visit, "So ... where is he ?" I question her . She gives me a pleasant smile as if everything's alright, then responds " He's in the bedroom". Before heading to the bedroom my aunt speaks once more , " you know you can take him anytime . Nobody has to know about this ."

I turn to her , the same complexion as my mother but look completely different from her in every way . A beauty in her own right -  with hair just past her shoulder, she is shorter than my five foot seven stature. Lastly she has a smile that can warm any persons heart, the perfect mother in my eyes .

I walk to the furthest back room in this three bedroom apartment, my aunt follows behind me . I arrive at the entrance of the bedroom and that's when I noticed him , he is curled into a fetal position, one thumb in his mouth while the other hand pressed into the side of his face, his caramel mixed chocolate skin glistens under the light that is peaked through the baby blue curtains . He's a tiny thing as his body is half covered by the blankets , almost engulfing him in them . I step a little closer not wanting to wake him with my presence .

"You know his birthday"

"Is coming up ... I know" I say to my aunt, cutting her short of her words .

"I'll get him something" I continue, at this point I am short of words. I don't have much to say to my aunt, she and I both know why I am here and that is for the baby . Our relationship is neutral but loving at the same time, "I know it's hard Kiera but you can take him anytime you feel like it" my aunts tone is soothing but pleading  as if  she doesn't want to watch him anymore . I feel this feeling and a wash of emotions over come me - I turn to face her , " I understand but... mama.. and she - I'll have an apartment soon , please just ... the father . I need help" my words are struck by my sobbing voice, i just can't . I feel so alone in this world.

Larry's P.O.V

I decided to go see my bro, Laurent since he had texted me about an hour ago but I was too busy with Adelia. She wanted more 'us' time which didn't seem to make sense - we did that enough. Leaving Adelia in my room after putting her to bed - I was alone when I arrived at Laurent's hotel room door having a spare key card, I invited myself in. I figured why not do so being that he was single and hardly had any guests other than me . Before fully opening the door I could hear my brothers voice speak the words "uh oh" and then there they were. More like there she was, Kiera, sitting on the bed looking a mess while Laurent stood only a few feet away from the bed with his phone in his hand. I walked further into the room closing the door behind me, there was a weird silence in the room before Laurent finally decided to speak first - " Larry, my bro play UNO with us" . I was confused and only wanted to speak to Laurent in French not wanting Kiera to know what I say, so that's what I did .

"Laurent pourquoi est-elle ici? ( Laurent why is she here ? )" I questioned, my face must've read irritated because Laurent smirked and then proceeded to answer my question using English. " She's here because I want her here baby bro" he kept his smirked planted on his face knowing how much he got under my skin when he did not speak French back to me . I continued in French anyway , " ça ressemble à im jouer frère? maintenant dis-moi" ( Do it look like I'm playing brother ? Now tell me ) I demanded from Laurent, curious as to why she was in his room . " Chill out bro... UNO we play, nothing happen. I call room service - they come soon" he smiled brightly at me while throwing his hands in the air trying to play innoncent like a child but he was just as grown as I was. Shortly after another pause into silence there was a knock at the door, my guess was room service and sure enough it was . I let my eyes follow my brother as he walked towards the front door opening it slightly before throwing the door fully open. I broke my stare from Laurent to Kiera who sat in silence, I wondered what went through her mind as she watched my brother and I argument . She probably felt awkward; her eyes were focused on the carpeted floor as if in a trance she just stared at the floor . I took this into an advantage letting my vision roam freely, I scanned down her body. In overall view from head to toe she was no Adelia for sure, Kiera didn't give me that sex appeal like Adelia did . Slowly my eyes roamed down her cute plain face to her torso where I noticed something just above her collarbone, right on her neck. I thought my vision was playing tricks on me so I decided to walk a bit closer to the bed, taking a seat on the night stand , I stared at her some more before my mess of a brother came throwing his arm around my neck. " Elle est bizarre, n'est-ce pas?" (She's a weird one isn't she?) , he had finally spoken in our mothers tongue knowing I wouldn't respond back , it was like night and day with us sometimes. What ever that was on Kiera neck irritated me for a reason I couldn't explain. Maybe it was the fact I was too over protective of my brother and didn't want him messing around with these American girls or maybe it was Kiera herself, she seemed so distant from this world and so innnoncent that I didn't want my brother using her with his player ways .

For a few seconds it was like everybody had been frozen in time, Kiera sat on Laurent's bed staring into space , I sat on the nightstand staring at her and Laurent had his arm around my neck leaning on me until I broke this frozen moment and spoke " et le suçon sur son cou?" ( And the hickey on her neck?) I directed my question to Laurent, finally breaking my stare down at Kiera looking at him in his eyes. "It's just a game bro. Right Kiki?" Kiera looked up at us and I was able to see the hickey more clearly now.

"Yeah we were playing UNO, Laurent wanted to add in a few rules" she spoke , her voice a sounding a bit nervous . "Why you sound like that ?" I questioned her and for a split second she looked confused before she finally realized what I meant . " It's nothing." She answered, "Larry stop asking my girlfriend so many questions" Girlfriend ? - Laurent released his hold from around me and walked towards Kiera, hovering over her. He opened his mouth to speak " did you open up your gift once you got home ?" 

"My gift ?"

" Yes the Victoria secret bag"

Kiera took a glance at me then back to Laurent , looking up at him as he hovered over her still. She must've realized what he was talking about when she shook her head 'no' to my brother.

"Is okay Kiki , open it when you get home okay?" He said with a genuine smile .

"Okay Laurent ..." Kiera half heartedly smiles back at him, the two of them leaving me out of the loop . What gift ? I wondered, but not for too long when he kneels down at her, "Laurent, what you doing bro ?" I was uneasy with him kneeling in front of her, he ignored me while I watched. " Kiki, can I ask you something ?" He was eye level with her, staring straight into her eyes while Kiera looked flustered a bit. " Okay" was her response , so he continued , " Will you be my" I had to cut him off short of asking her to be his girlfriend forreal . " Laurent!" I shouted , which forced his head to turn in my direction, our eyes meeting. " Bro is to be our friend...." friend? " huh ?" I was confuse, and maybe so was Kiera.

" Yes we don't know that many people in NYC so why not be our friend Kiki ?"

Laurent was anxious, he wanted this girl to be wrapped around his finger, he wanted this girl to himself in a way . Claiming her ever since that day and dragging it out for this long but I was the one that had her phone, the one that helped her off the floor when she fall. I can't help this feeling that Laurent and me are mentally battling for her and he's winning . I don't care for her but Laurent should respect my credit, if it wasn't for me she wpuld not be with us and he would not be so interested in her . I was beginning to get wrapped in my own thoughts, thinking why did Laurent have such a great interest in her ? Why was she so interesting to him ? I had to admit at first she was interesting to me in the beginning but there was nothing in her phone to see. So I left it like that.

My attention was brought back to the two of them, Laurent still on his knees and Kiera with this awkward ass silence coming from her . The silence from her was killing me even though I didn't show it on my face being a blank expression, I also didn't care what her answer would be.

"Okay..." I wasn't shocked by her answer, I could care less , she wasn't my friend she was now Laurent's "plaything" . We were starting to blow and become famous, we didn't need friends, our "friends" back home were there and they were even starting to drift from us . I took notice of Kiera's shyness and awkwardness , " Okay good, your our friend so as a friend I have to tell you quit smoking cigarettes Kiki" Laurent chuckled before continuing, " the cheap perfume can't hide the smell"

"Laurent !" I needed to check him in place, even though he was right about the smell but she was still a woman and that was too rude.

"What bro ? She's our friend ..."

"You friend.." I corrected him.

" noooo, we can share juste pas au lit (just not in bed) he quickly switched from English to French on me . I realized what he meant and it was funny in our younger days we did that a lot.

" you mean anymore..." I chuckled this time. Laurent quickly  rolled his eyes at me, " Larry, she's not like that" . What Laurent said caught her attention quick.

"Huh ? ... like what ?" She questioned, her confusion was plastered all over her face. Laurent pinched the bridge of his nose then sighed out of irritation because of me which made me laugh a little, finally getting under his skin . He rolled his eyes once more before taking Kiera hands into his own, he sighed again as if he really didn't want to answer her question but he spoke anyway .

"Ever had a threesome Kiki ?"

Authors notes:

Laurent's P.O.V

I invited her back to my hotel to converse. My broth'a (brother) and I don't have many NY friends and I think Kiera would be perfect female companion to just chill around. Even though our name is starting to blow Kiki doesn't treat me like a "fan to a star" would. She's ..... gloomy, depressed and has a back story to her . Maybe I'm noisy or perhaps curious of her, I don't know but to me she came out of no where . Literally falling into our lives, literally. She is different and that was revealed by Larry when he looked in her phone checking out her pictures. And all she had was pictures of paintings, landscapes of buildings, no selfies. A lot of pictures of the weather too, like snow fall or rain.

Larry doesn't seem to care for her as much, he already moved on with his life seeing Kiki as now a memory. Which makes sense to see that way, but not to me , I saved her. Lil bro was her "knight in shinning armor" but I was her savior, the true hero. Saving her from that dude not to mention I bought her everything she picked up in Victoria's Secret . From perfume to panties what ever she picked up I threw in the shopping bag , which reminds me -

"Kiki..." leaving my own thoughts to direct my voice to Kiera who's face was so focused on the game in front of her , i called out to her once more.

"Kiki...." and this time her face risen which this time read " gloom" and I immediately wondered why.

"What's wrong ?" I questioned her .

"I'm ... winning" she responded and with her answer my eyes left from looking at her face to looking at the game, at first I wondered how she was winning. I wanted to win and her to lose so I can tease her to see where she would kiss me , maybe somewhere innocent like the cheek or forehead? Or maybe she is really that bold and go for the lips. I decided to tease her. " Awee ... are you scared of a kiss ?" In response she flew her head back in a sulking manner like a child would, revealing her bare neck. This is the most dramatic I seen her since meeting her and surely would like to see her more dramatic. Quickly my eyes scanned over her neck to her collar bone stopping at the top of her torso which her cleavage were somewhat shown to me . 'I know where to kiss her'

My thoughts raced, not pervesley but I was now in a rush to end the game .

" ugh" the word blurting from her mouth, understanding she was frustrated a bit because she probably wanted to win.

"Okai you won Kiki, no need to worry . I can kiss you now ...." with my answer and her facial expression she came off as unsure , so I spoke again, " not on lips or whatever.." rolling my eyes I noticed she loosened her facial expression. 'So guarded' she's so guarded, again I was curious but this time I was curious on how she would react to where I would kiss her since she didn't want it on the lips.... or "whatever".

I pushed aside the cards to the other side of the bed even removing the cards that were still in Kiera's hand adding it to the pile . I edged closer to Kiera, In honest truth I didn't care if she was nervous or not because I wanted to get a reaction out of her either way. To tease her some more.

"You ready ?" I met eyes with her, they were telling me she was . There was a small gap in between us now , I reached out to her,placing my right hand gently on the left side of her cheek. I could smell how she really smelled from this distance, it would be described as cheap perfume and cigarettes but I continued with my mission.

" levez la tête" ( lift your head) I demanded from her.

"What did you say ?... I don't understand French"

"I know" I chuckled some , her face still read confusion .

" No .. what did you just say ?"

"To lift - " I paused my sentence long enough to motion her head upwards with my hands which there I continued " you head" . I wanted a good reaction from her with every move I made but she kept her head lifted . 'So obedient' I was smirking when I leaned forward towards her , glancing at her face one last time before I planted my "kiss" on the space between her neck and shoulder, just above her collarbone . I kissed her there, it was more like a suckle, I kissed her ,that was true . We agreed on a kiss not a peck, but her body begged for the type of kiss that crashed on a persons mouth and both of them "suck" and separate their selves from one another letting out a kiss sound. Sure enough that's what I did. And as predicted , her body responded , my ears could hear her let out a faint gasp. I made sure to kiss her in that area just slow enough for her to respond, I glanced up at her face one more time, her eyes were shut closed and mouth slightly open. 'Her spot' This was nothing sexual.... just a tease. I wanted to tease her. I was already her boyfriend why not play along as my girlfriend. I chuckled, I backed my head away from her as slowly as I could . When I seen her eyes were still shut maybe out of shock or lust I decided to go in for another kill. I kissed her again, this time on the opposite side and she responded. Her body stiffened infront of me, she was frozen... the way I liked it . I kissed some more this time sucking at her skin like I did the first kiss and each time she gasped slightly . The teasing was becoming risky, maybe I should stop here ? When I finally slowled down after multiple kisses and sucking on her skin there was only one hickey left behind . She was so stuck in that position I had to snap my fingers to get her out there trance .

Her eyes shot open "you said one kiss.." she didn't seem irritated and that "edgyness" she had to her seemed to have gone away although not fully . She might have needed that , to be kissed upon. To feel.. . Wanted. She did come off as lonely . I decided to ignore her for some reason I couldn't explain, letting my legs guide me off of the bed and walking towards the night table where my phone charged I picked it up . "I guess... that's what you wanted from me ?" My back faced her when she spoke, I turned my head to her, her image burning into my memory. She looked disheveled in a way even though no clothes were pulled and hair was untouched she just came off as that . Maybe she was feeling disheveled and it rubbed off onto her physical appearance ? Any second longer of not responding would've probably made her feel used, or like Adelia. " A reaction? Yes, ofcourse" I smiled at her continuing " that's what boyfriends do Kiki" .

Authors notes

The patience in me had already left when I didn't recieve a call from Laurent all day yesterday and today. I was inpatient , I wanted to speak to him for some reason - maybe hear more about his dancing with Beyoncé, missy Elliot or about his travels to France and through out America -something I wish I could do if I had the money. Staying in my room all night yesterday and today was starting to become bothersome, I wanted an exscuse to go outside like before, which was about my phone but this time I had no exscuse. Sitting in the middle of my bed I needed to smoke, grabbing the pack of new ports that laid flat beside me I took one cig out of its carton parting my lips in the time being, I dangled the cig in between my parted lips. Atleast I can smoke , that was the first thing on my mind, atleast I can, thinking once more . On a winter day the clouds were grey with no sun out in sight just like before, maybe it'll snow this time ? My mother, that bitch, did not wanting me leaving this household for nothing . I wasn't a minor anymore but I sure wasn't a full grown adult in my mothers eyes , including my own. It was very annoying to be trapped in my room plus boring , smoking about half way through the cigarette I came to a decision to go on YouTube using my APPLE laptop and search up "Less Twins" purposely spelling it the way the Dj had pronounced it. It was then I came across the autocorrect which was actually spelled 'Les twins' - Boredem really had strucked me when I noticed my cig ashes were starting to be more then the cigarette itself, I usually smoked all of my cigarette but this time my eyes were glued on the screen as I watch the twins begin dancing. I wasn't bored of watching the twins, I was bored in general.

They were dope on screen, it was like watching two mechanical robots doing unbelievable movements but in person was a whole 'nother level - they were amazing in person it was then besides me, my phone began to vibrate , facing upwards I peeked at the screen. Boyfriend was calling and all I thought about was who the fuck did I save as boyfriend in my contacts - I slide my index finger across the screen to answer,  "hello?".

"Kiki my girl .."

Laurent? It sure sounded like him, right when I was beginning to gather my words to speak over a flustered babbling he spoke again " see I told you I was going to call"  once I finally had gathered my words I spoke in a questionable tone

" And why did you save yourself as boyfriend in my phone ?"

"Because I am" he was beginning to take this on going joke a little too far .

"Well I would like for us to see each other again Kiki , and this time no running in bathrooms okai? " inunision I chuckled at his last words .

"Well where would you want to meet ? " perfect exscuse to get out

"Anywhere , maybe your place ?" almost dropping my lit cigarette on my bed sheets in reaction  the way I choked on my own "what?"

"Your not coming to my place Laurent"

"Okai... so back to my hotel then ?" What harm could be done there right ?

"Umm I'll have to think about it , I mean what'll we do once I get there ?"

"Kiki.. we will talk . No sex or anything like that I'm a gentleman" Yeah sex was the last thing on my mind, I think , Laurent was handsome but we hardly knew each other.

***

Once I made it to the hotel he was staying in , I was met by him in the lobby. He sported a "calm" outfit this time around , wearing all black with no accessories or shades , pretty basic I would say . As for me I thought more carefully into what I was wearing this time for a reason I can't explain , I wore the pea coat I had on our first encounter underneath the pea coat was a navy blue turtle neck sweater shirt that was a tad tight from too many washes and drying, the shirt cupped my B cup breast while my tight ripped jeans hugged at my small curves . My hair just passing my shoulders, and my nails matched my sweater this time .

I approached Laurent he seemed more pleased to see me then his twin would be, maybe ?

"Come..We go now" He was smiling with his lips tucked inside of his mouth reaching out to me. I'd dismissed his hand reached, nothing to be rude about but I just didn't want people assuming unnecessary things.

"Ouch.." he whispered in a "false" hurt tone, mocking my actions but still seemed to laugh about it . We both walked side by side towards the elevator - once inside he pressed to floor eighteen just like last time . The difference from last time in the elevator was this time we weren't so close together.  He stood in front of me, eyes focus on the elevator numbers going up.

Once we arrived to the destined floor, we walked towards a different hotel room from before. It made sense that the twins wouldn't share the same room so I didn't question the fact. We got inside the room, it was decked out just like the lobby seemed to be bigger than Larry's room as well. There was no gold but sure enough there was a lot of decorative paintings and a huge king size bed that was placed in the middle of the room.

"Let's play a game Kiki" Laurent said as he jumped onto the bed, bouncing in the process .

"A game ?"

"Yeah a game"

So this is what he wanted  ? My mind drifted to sexual thoughts as it was just us alone , no Larry, nor Adelia in sight. There was an awkward silence between us , as my mind was in the gutter thinking of the dirtiest things that would happen if I participated in this game Laurent sat at the edgeof the bed. He'd stopped bouncing and as if in a serious manner, both arms on his knees , a smirk played on his lips as he sat hunched over .

"C'mon (come on) Kiki it will be fun~" Laurent said while stretching out his words , what harm could be done ?  I nodded my head in agreement, it was then his smirk turned into a smile growing  big as if compared to a happy child he shot  up on both feet moving off the bed and digging into his bookbag that laid flat on the bedside - I assumed it must've been his carryon . I watched him curiously, dirty thoughts filling my mind believing that this game would consider something sexual until i seen him whip out a deck of cards.  These cards reminded me of childhood, reminded me at how bad I was at the game to be honest. ..It was the dreadful game called UNO, the original version.

"You played before, no ?"  He  said to me , looking up to me while I stand , I moved my head in a up and down motion. He knew that meant 'yes'  - " come , take off your shoes. Come to the bed" he motioned his hand to the bed giving it a few pats before standing, I did as I was told taking off my shoes - "And coat... Kiki" he gestured. In honest truth, I was shy to take off my coat, I'm not too sure why... maybe it was because of my self consciousness of my own body or the clothes that I was wearing, I do not know , all I know was that I still did as I was told without hesitation.

I sat on the bed, where I sat across from Laurent whom sat with his legs folded. I decided to sit that way as well. There he began to discard seven cards between the both of us putting the rest of the deck on the side.

Laurent is innoncent at this point, just only wanted to play UNO with me and do nothing else made me feel relax, more comfortable . My body relaxed, getting more comfortable and turning my posture from straight to hunch, " so who goes first?" I questioned, he answered quickly " you" .

I looked at the seven cards that was held in my hands spread apart, all bad numbers, no 'draw 4' or 'reversal cards' just plain number '5,8,1,3,3,9,1' none were yellow, only blue, red and green. I pulled the first number on my left, the red one, number five, then it was Laurent's turn to draw, he immediately pulled out a 'draw 4 card' . There was a silence at first before Laurent began to giggle, an "ah" left his mouth while our eyes met, he knew I was going to lose. I drew four cards from the deck, numbers '4,3,7,1' another bad hand. I pulled the first number that matched the same color, number seven and sighed, Im gonna lose .

“Let's spice it up.." said Laurent, spice it up? I quickly responded, "spice it up" , he nodded his head up and down, a signed 'yes'.

"Spice it up how ?" I asked .

"If you lose .... you kiss me, if I lose I kiss you ."  He smirked at me which caused me to give out a small blush . A kiss? But where though? I thought to myself, I was nervous somewhat - about a kiss, or maybe about the fact we hardly knew eahother . I wasn't sure of my own thoughts .

"Where at though ?" I questioned,

"I no understand..." he responded, ofcourse he wouldn't understand as a kiss to him could mean automatically on the lips .

"Meaning, a kiss on the forehead or-"

"Lips ofcourse" he quickly cut me off , speaking in a tone that was easy to read as if saying duh' to me. In response I rolled my eyes. With  his cards still in his hands not once tilting them downwards, our eyes stayed on each other , Laurent must've read how I was feeling about this new "spice it up" thing because he, in response tucked his smile into his mouth before speaking once more . " okai (okay) ... lets make it easy . If you lose , you kiss me ... anywhere. If I lose, I kiss you... anywhere. Better ?"  The rules were simple, if one of us lost we would have to kiss the other person anywhere we'd like. I didn't know what to feel nor think about in this  situation, other than to simply agree to it . " yeah ... I think so " I responded, unsure on what to feel.

" I can't wait to lose" Laurent said, positioning himself in a more 'serious' matter , I didn't want to ask what would happen if one of us were to win because now the game was about a lose, lose situation. It did not matter on who won, it mattered on who lost and where the kiss would be planted . I need to lose .

Kieras P.O.V

The man Laurent and I conversed with moments ago swiftly came to mind . Aron. He was the man I've been with, use to , had been with, all in the same tense - I loved that man at one point in my teen life . Two years went by without seeing Aron, my own thoughts suggesting I would never see him for more years to come but these suggestive thoughts were just that, suggestions. He was there, in this mall speaking to me, appearing two years older in front of my eyes. With his child whom already was in the restroom, Aron and I spoke of nothing important until the mention of my scar while scanning his eyes down my torso.

There was no good emotion in his tone of voice as he questioned me about the healing. He'd caused me pain and abandonment, the thoughts of  "he knew this" danced in mind because I was forsure that Aron knew what he had caused.

So much pain, so much ache, so much - pressure risened on my left shoulder from the print of  a hand being placed there, a squeeze , "Kiki ... Dont leave so soon" . My eyes followed the hand upwards  to a newly familiar face, Laurent, " you've caught my attention..taking me out of my thoughts" I admitted,  his lips turned upwards into a smile as his mouth parted to speak, " That's good , no ? ... I no want you to leave yet Kiki"  I couldn't stay after what Larry had said to me although I'd started the conversation he surely had finished it.

Laurent continued to speak " Come, if you leave now you no recieve your gift I bought you" My what?

"My what ,Laurent ?"

"Your gift"

"Why?"

"Your my girlfriend Kiki" He let out a small chuckle the sound released with his mouth closed although still smiling. I believe he read my facial expression perfectly as his  had faded quickly being replaced with an eye roll and a small sigh, " Here then.. no open till you get home" finally giving up on trying to make me stay in the mall, he shoved the Victoria Scret brand "PINK" into my free hand I was shocked that the bag was somewhat heavy, " Oh and your phone Kiki" he demanded, reaching for it in the hand that held it.  Before he could grasp my phone , I moved my hand further away from his reach . But ofcourse Laurent has to be about 6'2 or taller with long arms that snatched my phone from my hand , "give me my phone back" I didn't seem too annoyed but surely was.

"Hold on a second Kiki - I have a portable charger so take my num'ba (number) when it turns on" by those words I had stopped reaching for my phone , it was my property but I let him hook my phone up to the portable charger he pulled it out of his front pocket . After less then a minute my phone was turned back on, the iPhone battery was no less then five percent as Laurent had to move quickly. I watched him as he eyes roam through the phone along with his moving thumb accessing the call log then to the contacts. I was fine with it, I had to be after he had saved me from Aron.

"Where did you get the portable charger ?"

"I always had it on me..." he smiled wildly as his eyes were still focused on the screen . oh this guy...

Once he was done typing in his number, he called himself using my phone. It ranged a few times before he canceled the call, our eye met and Laurent finally spoke "gotcha" as he chuckled to himself once more. As if insinuating he trapped me, no letting go, like now I couldn't "run" from him if I wanted to because he had my number now.

"Laurent !" From behind Laurent spoke Larry, the now mean twin as I would refer to him from now on, he had held a few bags in both hands as he raised one arm up into the air. "Come.." his hand motioned a motion that signed "come here.. leave me be" - and that's what Laurent did , he didn't need to say goodbye to me nor speak to me anymore as he turned his back to me walking the opposite direction. Leaving me to stand there alone which I honestly didn't mind - we were to part ways now , the goal had been accomplished which was to achieve my phone . "I'll be calling Kiki soon. Get home safe" Laurent softly turned his head to me half way looking through his peripheral vision, a half smile played on his mouth. That was right, he had my number now and with that small input of words from him he never stopped walking towards Larry, as his back faced me so did the back of his head ,his attention was full on those that were in front of him . Alright then , time to go home ... I guess

Although I was flat out broke to buy , I wasn't broke enough to take New York's transportation - I laughed a little to my self they were interesting to follow , get to know a little bit . Understand what they did for a living and see them in action .

*****

I arrived at my door front tired from standing on the train for too long. Opening the door with my right hand , I slowly pushed it open . I hope my mother wasn't home and had went to work but the odds were slim as she was drunk earlier and might've decided to stay home instead , I dreaded the thought walking fully inside our messy home .

"Kiera?" Here we go I rolled my eyes , who else would it be ? "Yeah it's me"

"Good now take ya (your) ass  to your room." She yelled out of her own bedroom, I was just lucky to be yelled at and not in here fighting her physically. It was tiring, living with my mother - she was moody and miserable, I figured it was because of me. We'd just only been reunited a few months ago so her anger towards me was just as big back then as it was now. I was tired of living with her , but I had no money and wasn't going to school I was just a sitting duck in this home. This was my life. Walking towards my bedroom, the door was already half cracked open. There I walked inside , least I can smoke .

Almost 4 years later. LT fandom probably done changed a whole lot. like I mean a wholeeee lot . Like growing older lmao or just growing apart from the fandom. probably the old ones that was here aren't here anymore. I know my story wasn't special or anything on here but it had potential but no excuses other than life hit me . Cant believe four years later, the boys will be .. what ? 28 or 29 . I sort of lost count. my story is them still being 24 . Yeah I know. Lol. I Guess here you go.

- Laurents P.O.V-

Only a few moments ago she was crying. And even though I never met this man a day in my life up until moments ago his words stuck to me. “ We went to the same school” . I know in high school the guys looked older and much more mature but Aron's physical convinced me that he hasn't been a boy for a long time. Now what Kiera and Aron had or were was none of my business but I kept hold of her as she cried in my arms, shielded her from this dude before he recognized her. Her actions spoke for her, he must've done something traumatic to her. Like beat her or cheated or maybe just used her for sex. Maybe it wasn't physical .. It could've been emotional . Emotional abuse? Like what? Calling her a bitch to her face or telling her a number of threats?

My curiosity was all about her. I know I just met her but she was cute, young and mysterious. She was urgent to get her phone back , Larry didn't tell me a thing what was on her phone either other then texting me that “ Its unlocked!”. I smirked to myself, I had almost forgotten that he acted like her knight and shining armor taking her from my hands while saying “ Ohhh Lau I got it from here~ “. Baby bro think he got skills but I'm the “Boyfriend” .  *Authors note: Just like any one else when thinking they lose track. I tried to make Laurent's thinking as realistic as possible where he jumps from one subject to another*

“Laurent ... You okay?”

I was so amused by my baby brother that Kiera had noticed me laughing to myself. “ Yes Kiki . I'm good. I have to take you to my brother for a second”

- Larry’s P.O.V-

I’m not stupid…. I knew why Adelia had us in this store, she says its shopping but the selection of underwear isn’t shopping. Why she do this to herself? She says we’re just having sex - no feelings in this, I keep my promise but Adelia…. I know she caught feelings. Its been almost six months since we been doing this. I agree to call her ‘baby’ and let her come to my hotel from time to time but lately she wants us to be seen in public; holding hands or kissing and every time I have to remind her it all about sex, no love. Every time I tell her, its like the same thing… she gives me this blank stare before smiling and repeating what I tell her.   This is why I leave them so fast, I only stay with girls for six months the most and just leave them - If I really like them I stay up to eight months or nine. I nev’a hit a year, a year to us is relationship but its not about relationships, its about “sex, no love”.

"Larry" My twins voice ranged in my ears, I was by the entrance of the store when he walked up to me holding hands with Kiera. I look at her then back at my twin, he was smiling hard - "Keep her company… I be back" he say to me in French. He say this to me like Im a babysitter. “Laurent qu'il faut aller. Adelia devrait être maintenant sur la ligne.“ ( Laurent we have to go . Adelia is on the line now.) 

“Bro, Why the attiude ? I know you don't like Kiera just keep my girlfriend company . Okai?” This Liar, I took a good breath of air in through my nostrils I was already annoyed by adedile and her actions . I did not need my bro lying on me .  “ Kiera .. I didn't say that . “  I glanced my eyes at her, she was silent and was still holding my brothers hand. I heard him say “Girlfriend” - so what he was gonna do ? Lie to this girl and then fuck her after a day of knowing her?  that made me irritated so I just nodded my head at him. “ Go ..and hurry” I mad sure to speak in English this time so he wouldn't lie on me.

“Chill out Chevalier et brillante armure“ (Chill out knight and shiny armor) . He walked away

I don't say nothing to her and after a few minutes of no talking she calls out to me in a soft tone. "Yeah?" I look at her and she look the other way, "You and Adelia…." I stare at her so she can continue. "Are you guys Fu-" 

"None of your business, girl" I knew Laurent said something, he did that on purpose.

"Im no girl..” I could hear the attitude in her voice.

"You no woman…" I tell her back.

"I am grown.” One of her eye brows are raised as she shifts her weight towards the left putting her hand on her right hip. Every girl does this pose when they get upset. I chuckle at her. I couldn't take her serious. I mean she was just silent and few minutes ago.

"What’s so funny?" I stop my laugh to notice the serious look on her face. She say’s she’s grown, so I walk over to her to see how grown is she ?

"Okai… Have you ev’a been with a grown man?”

I see the change in her eyes, like I hit something deep inside her. Im close to her, staring down into her gorgeous brown eyes, a smirk formed on my mouth while I watch her struggle to push out words. I wait for her to answer but she don’t respond, I back away from her never leaving my eyes - “That what I thought” I say to her and she quickly pull herself together. ” I- Sorry…” I thought she was going to argue back but instead she walks away after saying ‘sorray’. This made me wonder was she a virgin ?

- Kiera P.O.V-

He was just nice to me last night, what happened?

' Have you ever been with a grown man?' his words bothered me, it almost felt like they were sexual.

Thank you *bows* it makes me happy you enjoyed part two . :)) 😺

Heyy Guys!!.. Okai… Monica hurr again with part two of my oneshot which was suppose to be a cliff hanger LML. But after request, I decided to do it. Hope you guys enjoy my Part two :))

*******

Laurent and Larry stood at the door step, “Clear!" a woman in all blue placed two electrical plates to her chest. “Bébé" Laurent called out to her, his feet moving on its own he could feel his brothers presence behind him. They called out to her, ignoring the people that hollered “Get those two out of here!" Her eyes were half opened and there was so much blood, her body was there lifeless. Larry stuttered out her name as he neared her, Laurent had dropped to the floor, many doctors were trying their best to revive her - the tears stung at his cheeks. How could this be? She should be alive right now!

A pair of hands grasped onto Laurent’s shoulders helping him to stand from the floor. “Bring her back.!" Larry yelled Laurent turned his head to look at his brother tussling with three other doctors, his eyes glossed only focused on the lifeless woman on the bed. She was gone. The pair of hands gripped tighter on Laurent’s shoulders pulling him, Laurent’s body kept trying to move closer to her - his arms reaching out to her. Before everything could be processed, Laurent and Larry were outside in the hallway, the brown door had been closed on their faces. Accompanied by two doctors that blocked the door - Both Larry and Laurent stood side by side, Laurent turned to Larry whom quieted down, tears running down his cheeks as he gaped at the closed door. He was in shock, in disbelief - the worst dream hes ever been in. Laurent embraced his twin, his arms wrapping around him. “Please……God.."

The two doctors told the boys that they would have to wait in the waiting room, in order for doctors to come and go. Weakly they walked embraced into each other - before they had hit the corner to turn and go inside the open space, Laughter and conversation could be heard. The voices were all too familiar, how did they know? When they finally turned the corner, in the waiting was her mother, their mother, her bestfriends and a few of the boys friends from their crew and ‘Team’. The laughs and conversations died down when everyone caught sight of the twins.

"How is my daughter?" Laurent broke down under Larry, bringing them both down to the floor.

"Gone.." Laurent sobbed.

"W-What?!" one of her best friends questioned.

"She’s dead !!!" Larry yelled in general, anger and sorrow mixed in his voice, almost immediately everyone in the room began to go crazy. Yells and cries filled the room. “The baby?! What about the baby?!" The twins mother questioned in French, there was no answer, they didn’t know anything about the kid. Now they were even more worried. The hours felt like days in the waiting room until one doctor walked into the mist of grieving people.

"Mr. Bourgeois" He called searching around the room for one man with that last name, both Larry and Laurent stepped forward, for a second the doctor was confused until he quickly figured out this “situation"… it was one of those cases he thought to himself. " Bourgeois’s" he repeated their last names, he noticed how tall the two were and how they towered over him since he was shorter in stature. “I-Im sorry for your lost-"

"OH GOD!" A female voice in the back round screamed but it didn’t stop the doctor to continue what he was going to say, “S-shes alive but your baby….I’m sorry, she didn’t make it…" Larry and Laurent’s face turned stone cold after hearing the news, “what do you mean?" Laurent spoke up.

"Your wife… is alive but your baby - we could not save." Laurent stumbled backwards, this couldn’t be real. The doctors eyes went back and forth between Larry and Laurent as he continued with more information - “Uhrm… we’ve done some test’s on her as well and there is a chance that she may never have children again."
