Finding Me (Slow Updates)

Chapter 10

^Emilia's grandparents house

My shift was supposed to end at 8, but because I went in late, I decided to stay after. For some reason the shop was completely booked today. We would get done with one rush, just for another to come in ten minutes later. I had to go back and give Camilla and Cameron food twice, and let me tell you, for cubs, they can eat. A lot.

Willow and others had left about an hour after they came in, promising that they would be at my grandmother's house for dinner. I know I said we usually go out to P.F. Changs for birthdays, but I decided to let my grandma cook for me this year.

Camilla, Cameron, and I were currently walking to my car, that is before I was stopped by arms squeezing the life out of me. I immediately knew who it was by the frizzy hair I could see from my peripheral vision. "Hey Lizzy," I said breathlessly.

"I can't believe you! Who would leave without saying goodbye?!" She yelled at me, still squeezing what remained of my life out.

I manged to pry her arms off and turned around to face her. "Sorry Liz, my grandma messaged me via hologram, you know she's serious when she sends by hologram."

"Well, I suppose that is true." She thought for a moment, "Oh, alright! But you better tell her I said hello, and that I can't wait to have some of her famous spaghetti."

I smiled and nodded my head, "I'll be sure to pass along the message." I gave Lizzy a quick hug before heading back towards my car.

'What is spaghetti?' Cameron asked me innocently.

"Um, well it's pasta, that has a sauce made out of tomato's, garlic, and herbs. Oh! And sometimes my grandma makes it with meatballs. Her meatballs are to die for."

'Oh, what is pasta?'

"Well, it's a long, thin piece of dried bread thats boiled in water, after a little while it becomes soggy...then we eat it?" God that made it sound really disgusting, but how else can I explain pasta.

Cameron bared his teeth I what I assume was his version of a grimace, 'I don't want to try any of that.'

'Come on Cam try it for me, I promise you won't be disappointed. At the very least you can eat meatballs most of the night.' Adriana pleaded with the pup.

He shook his head a few times before giving in and saying he would try it. At this point all three-

'Four, there are four of us.'

Right, four of us. All four of us had piled into my car and we were on our way back to my grandparent's house. As soon as I pulled into the driveway leading up to it's sleek, and shiny white walls with two floors where almost every room had multiple windows.

You see my grandmother retired from being a bio-engineer, mostly working with how to manipulate crops to grow in climates they don't normally grow in. Sometimes even to make them provide nutrients they normally don't. A lot of times she also worked with other scientists with cloning, it's been possible to clone animals and humans for a long time now. Though it is legal, cloning people is frowned upon since it's generally done after a family member dies. In which case that person is not going to be the same as the person that came before.

Camilla and Cameron followed me out of the car and up the side-walk into the house. It was oddly quiet inside, even though I knew everyone was here, it's not like they would be surprising me. "Grandma! Grandpa! I'm home! Where are you?"

I turned and looked down the hallway to my forward right, where Marlene, my grandpa's grizzly bear companion, was lumbering toward me. Cami and Cameron being protective in nature, stood in front of me as the little guardians they are. "It's okay guys, she won't hurt me," I said as I walked around the two pups.
