remember I love you all.

Lauren's pov.

"Mama!" Zoey yelled as I walked through the door with a bunch of stuff. I smiled but realized she was in tears and Chloe and Dinah were laughing.

"I don't like them anymore." She said and I sat the stuff down and picked her up.

"What did they do to you?" I asked and she put her head on my chest.

"They keep telling me that. Freddy is going to get me." She said and I kissed her head.

"No one is going to get you baby." I said and told Dinah to put the stuff away. I walked into the bedroom and grabbed Zoey's medicine.

"Here take it and sit down." I told her and she nodded her head. I grabbed her pajamas and walked over to where she was sitting.

"Is Freddy real?" She asked and I laughed and kissed her head.

"No he is not and no one is going to get you." I said and passed her her clothes. I walked back over to the bag and pulled out a pink onzie for Chloe.

"Little rabbit let's go!" I yelled and Chloe ran into my room. She grabbed her clothes and quickly changed and joined her sister in bed. I laid down with them and Zoey clung to my shirt.

"Its not nice to pick on your sister." I said and Chloe rolled her eyes.

"Its funny though." She said and Zoey looked at her and a tear rolled down her face

"I don't laugh at you when you were scared of the plane." She said and Chloe's face softened.

"I'm sorry zo, I didn't mean to make you feel bad." She said and Zoey rolled over and hugged her sister.

"I won't do anything to hurt you, I may be mamas little rabbit but you are my little hole. I have you to run back home to every night." Zoey said and I smiled and kissed their heads.

"I'm going to go talk to Dinah." I said and left the twins to sleep. I walked I to living room and seen Dinah smiling.

"Put your jacket on and lets go." I said and Dinah looked at me confused

"Call Normani and Ally and have them watch the kids but right now we have to go." I said and grabbed my jacket.

"Where are you going?" She asked as she put in her jacket and finished a text.

"I found Arctica. Its a long story but she didn't remember me but she trusted me, I followed her and I found Camila and we need to get her out now. I'm Scared she's really hurt. There's a baby there that Arctica said sleeps on the floor because he didn't like him. I need to get them out of there." I said and Dinah grabbed my arm.

"You know who has her right?" She asked and I shook my head.

"No, but I need to go get her." I said and turned for the door.

"dammit Lauren, Austin has her!" She yelled and I froze

"You mean you have known where she was the whole time?" I asked and Dinah nodded.

"I couldn't tell you. She would have been killed." Dinah said and I laughed.

"So instead you let her get raped! Kidnapped! Beat! And you let Arctica get watched by men as she slept! Fuck you Dinah! You are just as guilty as he is!" I said a she grabbed my arm.

"Trust me Lauren. This won't be as easy as you think." She said and I pushed her away.

"You need to get the fuck away from me and my family." I said and I left as Ally and Normani came in.

"Lauren stop you can't do it your self!" Dinah yelled and I turned around and she grabbed my arm. We stood in the middle of the field and I did something I didn't regret. I hit her. I hit her as hard as I could for lying about my family. For letting Camila get beat and raped and for letting my daughter be watched by men.

"I hate you!" I yelled and punched her again but she grabbed my arms and pulled me into her body. I tried to push her away but it didn't work. She pulled me to her as tight as she could and didn't let go tell I collapsed into her arms.

"He was on top of her. She was crying Dinah! I can't let her stay there." I said and Dinah hugged me tight.

"We can't save her right now. Start with Aden then Arctica and then Camila. You can't just Walt's in and take her. You have to have the kids out first." She told me and I shook my head.

"But he's not mine. I know he's Camilas but he's not mine." I sobbed and Dinah lifted my head and laughed.

"He is your Lauren. He is the last child Camila will ever have. She got her tubs tied with out him knowing. Aden is your baby." She said and I really didn't have time to think before I heard someone calling my name.

"Lauren!" I turned around and seen Arctica running towards me. As she made it to me I seen her tears stained and she was shaking.

"The house is on fire! He seen you and I can't get mom out you have to help me please. If those pictures meant anything you will help me!" She sobbed and pulled me into the woods. I quickly sprinted ahead of her and seen a small boy hiding in the bushes in nothing more than a dipper. I looked at the house that was completely engulfed in flames and I heard screaming coming from the house. I rolled my jacket in the snow and quickly made my way into the house my. I ran through the smoke dodging parts of the two story cabin that were filling from above. I reached for the door but it was locked. I went to kick it in but was tackled to the ground by Austin.

"Leave her in there!" He yelled and I pushed him off of me but he hit me in the face. Rage filled my body as the house crumbled from above us.

"Help!" She scraim and I pushed Austin off of me and stood by the door.

"Let me save her Austin. You can have what ever you want just let me save her." I pleaded but he walked over to me and grabbed my jacket I took a deep breath and pushed him and hard as I could and he fell into the fire. He scraim and as bad as I wanted to leave him there to die I know that I couldn't . I got him out of the fire and drug him outside and threw him in the snow. I went to go back in the house but the second story collapsed onto the bottom floor.

"No!" I scraim. The house burned and burned I couldn't find a way in. I had lost Camila and I knew it was my fault.

"Mom!" Arctica yelled as fire spit from the house. I grabbed her before she could run into it.

"Mom!" She yelled and I held her as tight as I could. No more screams came from the house at the final parts collapsed to the ground. No more screams and no more hope. The entire house was leveled and burning into cinders.

"Mom!" She scram again and she collapsed to the ground and I held her tight.

"Mom!" She yelled again and sobbed into my arms. I looked over at Austin and he was gone nowhere to be seen. I saved him and lost  the woman I loved. I sat there tell the house was completely gone and Dinah took the kids to the cabin. The fire department finally came and put out the remaining flames but never found Camilas body. They said that it must have decent grated in the fire. I walked on the rubble of the house slowly looking for anything that was Camilas. I walked over to the bedroom where she was last seen and found the silver locket I had gotten her when she was 16 along with her wedding ring. A sob escaped my body and I wished for nothing more than to be dead instead of her.
