Arriving at the airport Willa's eyes instantly welled with tears as she saw the bright flashes of cameras outside the car.
"Don't want to go," she instantly refused, gripping LoBear closer to her face and chewing on the stuffed animals ear. It was always the right one and it made the poor bear look like it was missing an ear as it would now bend back from being chewed and sucked on so much.
"It's okay, mama will carry you in," Lauren promised, thanking Ally and Normani as both girls took Raider and Leo for her so she wouldn't have to walk them in and carry her daughter.
The car door opened and the screaming grew louder, making Willa cry.
"Shh, no tears, it's okay. I'm here," Lauren stated, undoing the buckles of Willa's car seat and carefully pulling her out, stopping when Willa grabbed the armrest and tried to keep them both back.
"Stay here," Willa begged, breathing erratic as she tried to hold her mama close but not get taken from the vehicle all at the same time.
"Baby, we have to go inside," Lauren explained, pointing at the doors that people with their bags were walking through. "Okay, you know what you're going to do?"
Willa looked to her mama expectantly, wondering what she was thinking.
"You're going to become very tall. I'm going to put you on my shoulders, that way nobody can be taller than you. You'll be invincible."
"Like the green giant?" Willa asked, making Lauren laugh. Why her daughter wanted to be like the green giant from the frozen vegetables bags, she'll never know.
"Sure, like the green giant," Lauren said, earning a hesitant nod. "Alrighty then. Let's dry those beautiful eyes and go, go, go."
Lauren tickled Willa's sides as she stepped out of the car, distracting the girl so then she could lift her over her head and onto her shoulders, settling her before she walked in.
"All good up there, green giant?" Lauren asked, giving the toes of her daughter a tickle, making her laugh.
"Yeah. Go straight, mama," Willa said, pointing in the direction of where they had to go.
"Thank you, WillaBee. You need to be my eyes because you can see everything, okay?" Lauren asked, making the girl nod and bounce lightly. She loved being so high up.
"There's lot of people, mama," Willa stated, holding onto her mama's forehead as she looked around, her eyes not really settling on any single person as there were too many to look at.
"Sure are. They all came to say goodbye to us. Can you wave bye-bye, pretty girl?" Lauren asked, waving with her own hand at the crowd as she got closer to the door.
"Bye-bye," Willa said, waving to the crowds, making people coo at her adorableness.
Once inside the airport the sound was cut off, the doors blocking the screams as the flashing of cameras stopped altogether.
"How was she?" Ally asked as she handed Lauren the leash of Leo.
"Good. We just needed to be a bit bigger than what was scaring her and then it was all good. Right, baby girl?" Lauren asked, making Willa hum her agreement as she was once again chewing on the ear of her bear.
"That's good. Now let's get through security before we all miss our flights."
The three women made sure their bags were checked and that they had their tickets before moving in the direction of security.
Everything went smoothly there, Willa waving at all the security people who were happy to return the gesture in some form. She was really coming out of her shell so long as the situation was calm and there was no loud sound.
