Three months later

"You know although it's been three months, I still don't like her" Dinah whispered to Normani watching as Lauren and Caroline trained from the kitchen window. "She's Klaus mate for crying out loud, sooner or later she's gonna find out that we killed him"

"And if that shall come then we'll figure something out.. like we always do" Normani assured her kissing her cheek before she went outside to join them.

"Hey, Normani" Caroline cheered seeing the dark girl coming out. "Are you going to train with us?" She asked wiping the sweat from her forehead.

"Nah, not today kiddo I just came to watch," she says glancing behind her seeing Dinah walkout. "But how about later we go into town, ya?"

"Great I'm dying to go shopping," she says before returning to Lauren, so they can finish fighting.

"Mom you need to tell them," Demi says cleaning the sweat from her mother's forehead. "I don't know how much longer we can keep this up," she says ringing the towel out.

"I just need a little more time" she coughed. "If they find out I'm dying because of Normani, who knows what will happen"

"I do. You'll die while she lives"

"You don't know that," she says slowly sitting up in bed. "We just have to wait it out just a little while longer"

"How long? Til you start coughing blood up? Til your eyes began to bleed? Or til your heart stops?" Demi questioned looking at her mom. "There has to be a spell or something that can help us," she says reaching for a book. But piper swapped her hand away.

"There isn't. Trust me I looked before," she says struggling to stand. "Anyway, c'mon let's continue your training"

"Mom-"

"I'm fine honey," she says giving her a weak smile that didn't reach her eyes. "Now, let's begin"

"You're getting much better," Lauren tells Caroline as they sat down by the creek.

"Thanks, you're a great teacher"

"Yea, well I, myself, had a great teacher once," she says glancing down at her bracelet then, casting her eyes to her sister's grave that was behind the house, next to the creek.

Flashback

"Are you sure you want to do this?" Camila questioned looking at her with worried eyes. While the gang stood back watching. "You don't have to do this"

"Yes, I do. I can't hold on to the past forever" Lauren said as she stopped digging. "If I don't then I'm just gonna be in that hell hole, I was in a few weeks ago. Doing this would help me move on, plus if it wasn't their time then things would have turned out differently, but the universe wanted it this way" she says hopping out of the grave.

"Piper can do the spell, we have something that belongs to her now," Camila says holding up the wolf charm bracelet.

"W-where did you get this?" Lauren questioned taking it in her hands, letting the memories of when she gave Malia the charm bracelet when she was younger consume her all at once.

"The guys and I went back to their house," Anthony said, making Lauren look up from the bracelet.

"..that was very sweet of you, guys," Lauren said kissing her son on the cheek, while everyone else crowded around them, making her smile as a teardrop fell. "But I'm serious... I'm not going to bring her back" she said making them look at her in disbelief though, they allowed it. "She has been watching over me my entire life and I didn't realize it. Fighting with and for me to make sure that I was alright and didn't ask for anything in return except to be loved. So, now she can rest easy and watch over me..us in a better place, where she belongs" Lauren said subconsciously holding the bracelet to her heart.

"If that's what you want," Camila says resting her hand on her shoulder. Lauren smiled at the contact before nodding.

"I think she would've wanted it to be like this"

After a few short words from everyone, Lauren began to speak. Speaking of all the times where they would play and laugh together to when Mal would hold a crying Logan in her arms after hearing their parents argue.

Although it was hard to say goodbye for good, Lauren watched as Anthony put Malia on the ground, crying a bit that she'll never get to see her sister again, but also because she's now in a better place without always having to fight. When it was over everyone walked back inside, minus Lauren.

"I love you, Mal" she smiled looking down at her grave. "Thanks for teaching me how to be a better wolf than you" she chuckled looking up at the clear blue sky before walking away, putting on the charm bracelet

Movie magic type shit

"I love you, Mal" she heard her say as she watched her sister look at her grave. "Thanks for teaching me how to be a better wolf than you" Malia giggled at the meant to be a joke.

"I love you too, buddy" she smiled watching as she walked away. Malia stood outside of the kitchen window watching as they all had a feast.

Joking and laughing like a normal family without a care in the world. "You were always the better wolf than me," she says placing her hand on the window over Lauren's face.

Lauren stopped laughing and looked to the window, smiling. Malia smiled back in return, letting her eyes linger a bit longer before leaving. When Dinah nudged Lauren, she began talking and smiling while playing with the charm bracelet on her wrist.

End of Flashback

"Well, your teacher must've been amazing" Caroline gushed, snapping Lauren out of her thoughts.

"She was the best" Lauren spoke looking in her direction, making Caroline look at her with a small smile, though Lauren's eyes weren't on her, as Caroline had thought.

Movie magic type shit

"She was the best" Malia smiled looking at her sister with admiring eyes as Lauren looked back at her.

Lauren exhales a deep breath looking out at the sunset. Soon after, Malia did the same leaning back resting on her hands.

"We always did like sunsets" Malia smiled eyes closed soaking up the warmth, she was receiving. "I'm glad something's never change"

The End

Hope you guys enjoyed the sequel to BBW and I hoped you will continue to read my other stuff. But please tell me your thoughts on my book. Also for those who don't understand what I mean by movie magic is when they make you see the dead person but in actuality nothing there. So yea Malia wasn't there Lauren's mind and heart are playing tricks on her in a sense so basically, it's an illusion.
