(Inspired by the fanfic from biblical-chronicles on Tumblr, should deffo go check her out)

You were meant to be just meeting with your daughter Anaïs for some tea and a catch up at a cafe, as you slowly walked along the path to her you put your phone away.

You smile only seeing her in your sights before seeing Noel. You stopped walking for a split second before taking action steps to the outside table. You looked at Anaïs confused before looking awkwardly at Noel.

She knew. You didn’t and neither did he, a coffee in his hand as he then also looked at Anaïs confused. She looked innocently at you both before speaking. “Just wanted to spend time with both of you… together” she smiled.

You nodded not able to say anything before sitting down between them both on the rounded table.

——

And that was all it took. A sneaky plan from Anaïs and you two were talking again like you used to. Noel smiling without forcing it as he watched and spoke to you.

Both of you were reminiscing of the stupid and illegal stuff you both got up to younger before being a couple and having your daughter Anaïs.

She stood up with her empty mug. ”I’ll be a minute, just gonna get another” she smiled before walking back into the cafe leaving you and Noel alone back in awkward silence.

He cleared his throat as his eyes went back to the half drank mug. ”so….” he muttered.
