Dance with Me| Catradora AU

Eleven

Where was Adora? Catra knew it was a field trip, and that she was the principal and everything, but this was ridiculous. She had been on this trip for an hour now, hearing cheeky remarks from what she thought were her best friend's "sweet kids".

But on a brighter note, Finn was sticking to her, they had been ever since their little intervention; it was a part of their agreement, so they had to spend some time together.

As Catra walked behind the kids, she looked around the exhibit, but still saw no sign of Adora. And she definitely wouldn't answer her phone. She looked back up to see some more kids talking to her group, they were without an adult, so that was saying something and one of them seemed to be a little too close to Finn.

Catra walked up, her eyebrow quirked, taking in the scene before her. Putting a hand on her hip, she came up to the kids, who were chatting loudly.

"Where's your chaperone?"

The girl who was with Finn turned her head, giving her a look no 14-year old should ever give anyone ever.

"What's it to you old lady?" She replied, snarky.

Catra flared her nostrils and held back what would've been the nastiest insult she could ever say to a child that didn't belong to her. What the hell is wrong with these kids?

" First of all, I'm not old. And second, watch what you say. I'm not your mama." Catra retorted, pointing a finger at the girl.

The blue haired girl tutted and looked to Finn, giving them a stern look. Finn widened their eyes and held their hands up. "No, Nautica, I'm not defending that; you can't talk to my mom like that." They said, explaining to the girl.

She glanced at Catra when they finished talking and rolled her eyes, then she smirked. "I thought you were done with this mommy crap. You said you stopped. Did you lie? To me? Your girlfriend of all people?" Nautica accused.

Finn was gaping, eyebrows furrowed. "No! I didn't lie to you. Why would I do that?"

"Well, it does seem like it. Who asks their mommy, who apparently doesn't live with them, to come on a field trip?" She asked, voice sounding like she was taunting.

Catra felt helpless, she had no idea how to handle what was going on. And the steady group of kids surrounding Finn and Nautica didn't help. In seconds, there was already twice the amount of kids in the small showing room. This couldn't be safe.

She pulled out her phone and dialed Adora, making sure to keep her eyes on the arguing children. And as much as she wanted to fight the girl, she would surely go to jail.

"Adora? Hello?" Catra said, placing the phone on her ear, the noise in the room had reached an overwhelming level and it was hard to hear over the receiver.

"Catra? What—where are you?" Adora answered, already sounding frantic.

"Um, I think I'm in the jewel room. There's an argument going on and I'm the only parent in here—just get here." She answered, getting to the point quickly in order to save time.

"Okay, yeah—I'm on my way."

Adora hung up and Catra was still left alone. The crowd grew larger and pushed her back, leaving her no room to see Finn, she could only hear their words.

"—okay? So what! Just because your mom doesn't love you, it doesn't mean you can tell me how to act with mine! You're always like this—telling me what to do...that's how I was stuck in that situation in the first place!" Finn yelled, hurt in their voice.
