Hey there. This is a mini-ish fic that I wrote just to get some feelings out. If anyone hates it, I understand. 1st person is my kryptonite. I struggle with that. So expect failure. The link is what gave me the idea (BEWARE: COUNTRY MUSIC)

If you lost your child, how would you react? How would the one who took your child justify their motives? How would your child feel?
Vechs' POV
I hid my tears away as the big court doors shut. She was there, just staring at me. My little girl. My little seven year old girl. "Lillith? You alright?" I asked as I stared into her big, innocent eyes.
"Daddy? What's custody mean?" She questioned me while giving me a loving look. I could only tear up.
"Well little angel. Custody...custody means every night, whenever I come home, I won't have a darling little girl to put to bed, I don't get to stay up till nine watching cartoons with my little girl, and no little princess to see off on her first date. Custody means a fight between parents that little angel never wins." I sobbed a bit and she joined me in crying.
"No more daddy?" She asked with a fragile tone and I knew, nothing would make this right. I took my little angel in my arms and hugged her.
She sobbed into my chest as I recomposed myself. "Now don't you worry bout me Lillith. I'll be strong. Now you're going with Mama. I'm going to miss you. Stay tough." I said with false strength.
"But daddy!" She held me tighter, "I don't want you to go!" It was heart wrenching. To be split up with my daughter. I'll never forget it.
Aureylian POV
I sat and watched them for what felt like ages. I admit, I cried at the sight in front of me, but I held strong. I couldn't let her go through what I went through. To stop feeling loved. It was too brutal for me to let her go through. So I filed for custody. And I won. All I had to do was wait for their moment to end. And it did. But not for ten minutes. It killed me but a mother has to watch out for her child. When they finally let go, "Come on Lillith. Let's go." She looked to me hesitantly, then to Vechs. It looked like he was assuring her. She came running with a tear falling down her face. I had to ask myself if I was doing the right thing. I regret ever having that thought. I do remember looking back as I rushed Lillith out the door. He was looking at a picture of his little girl, tears streaming down his face.
Eleven years later, Lillith's POV
I blew out my candles with a smile. I was emancipated this morning. I felt so grown up when I signed that paper. Mom was so proud of me. I loved it. As I cut a slice of my cake out, he was there. I dropped it all, just like mom. As I ran, I could feel my heart well up in my chest. I wrapped my arms around him and he did the same to me. I felt so safe, so happy in his arms. "Daddy!" I yelled out as he tightened his arms around me.
"Little angel. I love you." He said with a smile. My mom was quiet and reserved. I could tell she wasn't happy. I think the only reason she didn't say anything was because I was happy. I have mixed feelings now but earlier, I didn't care. I was just happy to have my daddy back.
"Daddy. Little angel finally won." I said with the biggest grin of my life.
