I've been obsessed with Mamma Mia recently and I wanted to write this.

Timing: Before Apollo Justice (During Phoenix's disbarment) and Dual Destinies 

-----------------------

"Mummy, when are you going to tell me who my daddy is?" I heard a little five-year-old voice ask. I turned around at my daughter's voice and picked her up, "Now, Lily. I'll tell you that when the time comes okay?"

"Okay," she replied. I walked into her room and put her to bed. Why? Why did I have to be so stupid?! 

------------------After Dual Destinies

"Mum, are you okay?"

"Yep! I'm fine, sweetie. There's no need to worry about me. Was there something you wanted to talk about?"

"Yes, when will I get to know who my dad is?"

I froze up, "Sweetie, please. I can't do this now. I need to look over this evidence."

"Okay," she replied going to sit back on the sofa. I felt bad about it. I truly did. But how was I supposed to tell her something I didn't know myself.

"(Y/n)? (Y/n) are you in there?" I heard from outside my office door.

"Come in," I replied. I needed a break anyway. The door opened to reveal Franziska, one of my long tome friends, "Oh hey, Franny. How are you?"

"I'm good. Except that fool has done something foolish!"

"Franny, you call everyone a fool. Who do you mean?"

"Phoenix Wright! That fool! He's just beaten me in another case!"

"Well, Franny. You should be used to it by now. I know I've had my fair share of defeats from him."

She walked over to the sofa I had in my office, "Hello, Lily."

"Hello, Miss Franziska. It's good to see you again."

"Likewise."

"Franny why did you come?"

"I want to talk to you, (Y/n). I know you'e been stressed lately, why?"

"Franny, I can't do this no-" I was cut off by another knock on the door, "Come in." This time the door opened to reveal Ema, "Detective Skye! What can I do for you?"

"The autopsy update you ordered has been completed. Here," she walked over and handed me the report. I took it from her, "Thank you." She nodded before leaving my office again. I then remembered something, "Detective Skye!"

She popped her head back into my office, "Yes?"

"Would you mind looking after Lily for a few minutes? I need to talk to Franziska about something."

"Yes Ma'am!" Lily stood up from the sofa and followed Ema out of my office. I breathed a sigh of relief and turned back to Franziska, "Finally. Franny I really need to talk to you about something."

"You know you can tell me anything, (Y/n)."

I placed the autopsy report down on my desk and sat next to her on the sofa, "I don't know what to do anymore!"

"(Y/n),  what's this all about? What do you mean?"

"Lily. She's been asking me more and more about her father and I keep having to find excuses. I mean how am I supposed to tell her something that I don't know myself!?"

"What do you mean? I thought you knew who her father was."

"Well, there was another guy around the same time, though and I don't know which one is her father! I can't even look at her appearance because she's a spitting image of me!" I broke down.

"Oh. (Y/n), it's okay. Just tell her the truth. Just tell her you have no idea."

"What?! I can't do that! She's going to hate me! I've brought this upon myself because I was a stupid reckless little slut!"

"(Y/n) don't talk like that."

"It's true, Franny! If I hadn't then I'd probably know who her father was!" I then felt her wrap her arm around me, "(Y/n), it's not your fault."

"Yes it is! If I wasn't such an idiot I wouldn't have this problem!"

----------------

The trial finally came but the minute I got into the courtroom, I felt like running straight back out. Unfortunately, I couldn't due to, "Is the prosecution ready?"

"The prosecution is ready, Your Honour," I answered after taking a deep breath.

"What about the defence? Are you ready, Mr Justice?"

"Yes! Defence is ready, Your Honour!"

Now I remember why I have this problem. If I hadn't fallen for your adorableness, I wouldn't have the problem of not knowing who Lily's father is. You and Klavier better- 

"Miss (L/n)? Your opening statement?"

"Oh, sorry, Your Honour. I was in the middle of thought."

------------------- 

"(Y/n)! Wait!"

I turned around at the voice, "What?"

"It's good to see you again."

"Yeah, I suppose you could say that."

"What do you mean?"

I was about to answer but I was cut off, "Mother! Can we go and get food now? I'm starving!"

"So you finally settled down?"

"Now exactly, Apollo. It's complicated."

"I can still recall our last summer. I still see it all..."

"Not, now, Apollo. I-I didn't think I'd see you again."

"Walks along the Seine-" 

"Ahh, there you are Herr Forhead. I was looking for you."

Shit! Both of them in the same place at the same time! Not good! Not good. 

"Fraulein, it's good to see you again, ja?"

"Shut up, German B*stard!"

"Mother, what are you doing? How do you know these two?"

"Please, Lily just go and find Franziska. I'll come and get you in a while, please?"

"Okay," she replied walking off. I trusted her not to do anything stupid.

"Fraulein? Who's the kind?"

"MY daughter."

"Who's her father, Fraulein?"

"Why do you want to know, Gavin? I would know that if you didn't leave me!"

"(Y/n) wait a minute! I was engaged!"

"Then why the bloody hell did you fuck me?!"

"I-I'm sorry but I told my fiancée I couldn't marry her and I came back. Although, when I got there they told me you were off with another man."

"Yeah so what? I'm not the type of girl to cry for weeks over a break-up! And at least that other male cared for me and didn't lie to me!"

"Fraulein, I'm sorry."

"And I DON'T forgive you!"

"(Y/n), I'm sorry too."

"It's okay, Apollo. You shouldn't be. Breaking up is never easy I know but I had to go."

"Knowing me, knowing you. It's the best we can do."

"Could you forgive me?"

"Of course, Apollo. You didn't LIE to me. Thank you for the music, the songs I'm singing."

"Thanks for all the joy their bringing..."

"Who can live without it? I ask in all honesty."

"Lily! I thought I told you to go and find Franziska."

"I know but she wasn't in her office. So I came right back. Please? Can you please tell me why my father is?"

"Okay fine. I can't keep it a secret forever. I have no idea whatsoever who your father is because I was a stupid idiot and slept with two men without enough time between to tell if I was pregnant! You probably want to keep it a secret from your classmates that your mum is a literal slut!"

"(Y/n), you're no-"

"Yes I am! I went from one straight to another! Albeit it was because I was really upset and he was adorable but still! I still did it! And now I have no idea who your father is, I'm sorry Lily."

"We could find out. You know, do a DNA test but I'd rather share her. If Klavier's okay with it."

"I'm with Herr Forehead. Being half of Lily's dad is fine by me."

"Mum, I don't care how many men you slept with, I love you and nothing is going to change that."

"Thank you, Lily. I love you too."

"Um, (Y/n). I have a question. One that I should have asked you 14 years ago."

"On you go, Apollo. I won't judge you."

He looked to Klavier who looked back at him and pressed something into his hand, "Go for it, Herr Forehead."

"Um, (Y/n). I was wondering whether you'd marry me?" Apollo asked getting down on one knee and producing a ring.

I smiled, "Yes, Apollo. I will." His face lit up and he stood up, placing the ring on my finger and kissing me. He leaned int my ear and whispered, "Why don't we try 14 years ago again but without the whole 'no idea who the father is' thing?" before kissing my neck just underneath my ear, making me gasp. I slapped his arm lightly, "That can wait until tonight. Don't get too ahead of yourself."
