"Did you murder someone? Before me?"

⭒🐺━━━━━🐺⭒

"Have you see - where the fuck did you get kids from?" Charlotte asks in confusion when she sees two kids clinging onto Scott.

"Boyd tried to kill them." Scott tells her, slowly walking over to the Lynx.

"Welcome to the club." Charlotte nods at the two kids.

"Arlo!" Scott hisses incredulously.

"What?" The Lynx asks cluelessly, making Scott send her a look.

"Oh, sorry." Charlotte mutters, smiling at the two children awkwardly.

Suddenly, Scott's phone rings, making the kids walk over to Charlotte instead.

"What are you doing?" Charlotte asks with wide eyes when the two kids lean their heads on Charlotte's arms.

"Hugging you." The boy replies.

"You look sad." The young girl adds, making Charlotte raise her eyebrows a little.

"I haven't had my gummy bears yet." Charlotte nods at them.

"Why don't you just buy yourself some? You're an adult." The boy asks.

"I'm actually sixteen and I spent all my money on Ice cream." Charlotte tells them.

"I think that's a great way to spend your money." The girl nods.

"Tell that to my friends, they don't think it is." Charlotte hums a little.

"My favourite ice cream is chocolate." The boy speaks up, making Charlotte look down at him.

"Mine's strawberry." The girl adds.

"Those are great suggestions... I want ice cream now." Charlotte tells them, making the two kids chuckle a little and nod in agreement.

"We gotta go and take them home." Scott walks up to her after finishing his conversation with Derek.

"But we're having a conversation." Charlotte furrowed her eyebrows.

"It's not very nice to butt into a conversations." The girl speaks up knowingly.

"Exactly." Charlotte nods, looking up at Scott with a smile.

"Okay, we're getting them home before they turn into two mini Arlo's." Scott nods with a sigh.

⭒🐺━━━━━🐺⭒

"Is it them?" Scott asks.

"Looks like we're not the only ones who decided to stick together." Derek sighs.

"Fun." Charlotte hums, messing with the ends of her hair.

"Is that gonna make it easier or harder to catch them?" Scott asks with a small wince.

"I don't know." Derek sighs irritably.

"I'd say easier because they're both together... But when does anyone listen to me?" Charlotte asks with a small sigh.

"Derek, I just saw Boyd try and rip apart two little kids. Are they gonna do that to everyone they find?" Scott asks with a sigh.

"Point proven." Charlotte mutters under her breath.

"Everyone and anyone." Derek nods grimly before the three start walking again.

But, Charlotte stops, her eyebrows furrowing when a bad feeling fills her chest.
