Keyona POV
It has been a week since I walked out of Dauntes house after telling him the truth. I found out that there was a camera in the room Sophia kept me tied up in and it recorded every single thing. My brother told me that he just showed Daunte the recording and left. But knowing my brother, there's more that he did besides showing Daunte the video and leaving, especially when he had a smirk plastered on his face as he told me.
Kevion describes the regret and guilt he seen in Dauntes eyes as he watched the video. He told me that Daunte didn't say a single word when he watched it and when it was over, how frozen and shock he was in. I know how guilty and regretful Daunte was because I have received never ending messages from him.
He is always saying sorry and how he wants to fix things and blah blah blah. He says how much he cares for me and wants me but he didn't believe me or let me explain when I tried to tell him everything. He called me jealous because of her.
Okay, maybe I was a little jealous, but not because she had him, I was jealous that she was having his baby and we lost ours. I was jealous that she gets to experience the making and birthing a child of her owns. That she claimed Daunte as her baby's father.
But I also had no reason to be upset, because apparently it happened before I came along. According to Leo, the day before Daunte met me at the club, that was the last time he spent a night with Briana. That the moment he met me, I was it for him. But if that was the case, why didn't he believe me? Why didn't he trust me?
I turned on my read deliberately, so that he knows I read every message he send me and left him on seen. I wanted him to know that I read them but didn't care what he was saying. That is until his last message.
***** 'I have to go out of town for a couple day. I'm going to let you think and I won't bother you. But the day I get back, I'm coming over and I will sit at your door until you answer.'*****
To bad for him that I'm leaving to a hotel tonight since Kevion told me that his plane lands tomorrow afternoon.
I'm not ready to talk to him. The pain he caused me was enough to shatter my heart. There was just a tiny piece of me that missed him. Missed being in his arms and missed feeling safe and secure. But I also wasn't ready to forgive me. What he said to me was a stab wound and when I left out that house, I went straight up to my room and pulled out my shoebox that held my babies ultrasound picture.

I sat in the corner of the closet and cried. I held the ultrasound to my chest. Even though it's been a couple months, it still hurts. If I would of knew and if I would of took care of myself, I could of been pregnant with a beautiful baby girl.
Even though I lost her, I still felt this love for her. Like she would still be my first born even if I had another.
Today was one of those days, but a little different because I didn't hear anybody come in until I felt arms wrap around my shoulders and pulling me closer to them. I look up and my eyes connected with Kevion. I gave him a small smile as I continued to hold the picture.
"You okay?" He asked and I nod and looked down at my hand that held the picture before I showed him.
His eyes became wide when he seen the picture. He took it from my hand and I swear I seen a second of sadness in his eyes. But the moment he looked at me, he gave me a small smile.
"So Bella?" He asked and I nodded. He smiled and kissed my forehead it fell silent for awhile before he said something that tugged at my heart, "You would of been an amazing mother, Key." He said and I felt a tear slide down my cheek before he wiped it away.
"It's not fair!" I cried. He pulled me into another hug and rubbed the back of my head as I continued to cry in his chest. "I lost her and now she doesn't even exist." I cried harder, I felt like I haven't cried this hard in awhile and I feel this hurts more because I'm actually talking about it for the first time with someone who is close to be, besides Daunte. But even with Daunte, I did pour my heart out like I am with my brother, my twin brother.
He held me tighter, "Don't cry, because even though you lost her, doesn't mean she didn't exist. She matters and exist just as much as she would of if she was here. You are still her mother and she is still my niece."
I didn't know what to say, so I just hugged him back before I wiped my tears and sat back, taking the photo back from him. But not before he took his phone out and snapped a picture of the ultrasound. For a second, I though I would of been upset, but for some odd reason, I wasn't. "You want to know what's crazy..." I trailed off. "What?" He smiled at me. "You are the first one who actually seen the ultrasound picture." I told him and his smile widen, "Really?!" He said with so much excitement and shock as I nodded at him. "Well I feel honored and blessed." He said.

For the next hour, we just sat and talked about random things as I continued to hold my ultrasound picture. But of course, he had to bring up Daunte.
"So are you really going to leave to a hotel tonight, just so you don't have to see him?" He asked and I nodded, "I'm just not easy to deal with him. What he said shattered me. He only feels back because you showed him the video. I believe if you didn't, he wouldn't feel bad." I explained and he shook his head, "Look Keyona, I'm not takin this side at all, but I know how he truly feels about you and yes what he said was hurtful but I don't think he meant it." I rolled my eyes as I put the ultrasound picture back in the box and put the box back onto it's rightful place.
I stood up quickly and shook my head at my brother, "He meant it, he literally sat there and said 'I am just jealous because' before I cut him off with a good slap." I repeated his words with my finger in air quotes. "I knew what he was going to say before he even said it. When his face turned straight into guilt, I just knew. Like come of Kevion, who says that to someone who they supposedly care deeply for. Who says that to someone who just lost their child." I said, now getting upset. "Just because you though you have a second chance at being a father, does not give you the right to hurt someone that didn't get a second chance at being a mother. Do you understand how much that hurt? To hear the man that you love, to hear him say something so hurtful!" I screamed.
"Daunte came into my life and swept me off my feet. He made he feel safe when he held me. When we were together, he made me feel like I was the only one that mattered to him. He made love to me and got me pregnant with my beautiful baby girl. I fell in love with him,Kevion and what do I get in return, him telling me how he cares for me but ends up constantly hurting me. Now tell me, how does that work?!" I screamed and I didn't realize I was crying until my brother cupped my face in his hands and used his thumbs to wipe the tears away.
"I understand where your coming from, but don't you think he has the right to explain his actions. You have to understand, I don't think he truly meant to say it. Just an hour before y'all argued, he found out that his supposedly dead father was alive. He found out that the woman who raised him after his parents died, is the person that caused him to lose the only other woman he truly cared about beside you, his mother." Kevion said as he looked me in the eyes as he spoke.
I looked at him for a second before I realized that what he said was true. I walked away from him when he needed me most and I didn't let him explain. But it also didn't give him the right to say what he said to me. I lost our child and basically just through it in my face. I didn't know what to think at the moment. I just knew that my brother was somewhat right, but I was still hurting.
"Your right, but it doesn't excuse the fact that he said what he said. It doesn't excuse the fact that I tried to explain, but he wouldn't let me. It doesn't excuse the face that he made it seem like I didn't matter. He was wrong." I told him and he nodded, "Your right, but two wrongs don't make a right." He said as he hugged me and kissed the top of my head before walking towards my bedroom door. He opened it and was about to walk out until he turned and faced me one last time, "Just think about sitting and talking to him because I think that's what you both need." He walked out and shut the door behind him.
As I packed my bag to head to go to the hotel, my mind kept thinking about what Kevion said. He was right, it was something we both needed, but to be honest...
I just don't think I'm ready yet.

Previously titled 'Eda and Lilith's Shipping Plans' Luz Noceda is powerful, but the average person wouldn't believe it, not until she helped free The Owl Lady at least. But there's been a reason for that. After all, small balls of light and the odd flower or two aren't exactly impressive, especially when she usually only has such small sigils on hand at any given time. So how. How did she manage it? She even got the jump on Emperor Belos himself, something even the most experienced of mages would have no chance of doing. Lilith wants an answer and she even has a theory for how to make the boost stick if she's right. Now if only her sister could explain to her why Luz, who seems to be ready to leap into almost anything, won't leap into love. Fanfiction of The Owl House Daily posts until it's caught up to Ao3. Written between seasons 1 and 2 and no, I'm not editing EVERYTHING that would be needed to fix the inconsistencies.
