Special

I'm still re-watching Glee. I'm in season two.

I ship Faberry. But I do like Fabrevans, Finchel and St. Berry.

Lauren felt the water hit her feet. She let out a giggle as she wiggled her toes into the sand. Lauren felt someone sit next to her. She looked over to see Lucy sit on her right.

"What are you doing here?" Lucy asked, sitting next to her best friend.

The Saturday after their first week of high school, Camila and Shawn planned a beach day for their group of friends. Shawn, Austin, Hailee, Keana, Alexa, Camila and Ariana were playing volleyball at the moment. Ashlee was sunbathing, while Halsey and Dua were playing in the water. (Normani and Val were on a date.)

The younger girl shrugged, not answering.

"What's up Lo?" Lucy asked, seeing the sad look on the other girl's face.

"Do you ever compare yourself with your brother?" Lauren asked, turning over to Lucy.

The other girl shook her head. "No, not really. Carlos and I are two different people. Do you?"

Lauren looked at Lucy. "Yeah. I hate it. I hate how I can't talk to new people, but Camila and Normani can make new friends in seconds. I hate how sometimes I can't talk. I hate how there is a hole in her head."

Lucy frowned at that. "A hole?"

"I can't remember things. I read that it means something bad happened and I can't remember what that is. And I hate it Lucy," Lauren whispered, "I didn't really learn to talk until I was four. And I still go to therapy sometimes. What's wrong with me?"

(And Lauren wasn't the only one who didn't remember a lot. The trauma of losing Lauren also affected Camila, who blocked that time out as well. Normani was the only child to remembered Lauren's kidnapping. The other kids remembered about it, but never brought it up, knowing it would hurt the two girls.)

Lucy pulled Lauren close. Lauren released a soft sigh.

"Nothing is wrong with you Lo. You are special."

Lauren closed her eyes. "Thank you."

"Attack her! Get her Leo!" Ally cheered while Leo lick-attacked Dinah. The mothers were having their own date night while their kids were out.

Dinah just laughed louder. She pushed the dog away, and then tried to kiss Ally.

"No!" Ally exclaimed, running away.

Dinah ran after her. "Kiss me you dwarf!"

Ally laughed, and tried to run harder. Dinah tackled her wife down. She looked down at her wife.

"You got me," Ally whispered, looking at Dinah.

"Yeah I do. And you know what's going to happen now?" Dinah whispered, smirking.

Ally didn't respond. She just like closed her eyes.

Dinah leaned over and whispered to Ally, "Leo, get her."

Leo started to lick her face. Ally tried to get Dinah and Leo off of her, but she wasn't able to. Once Leo got bored, he walked off to his (really Lauren's) room. Dinah smiled down at Ally who was glaring at her.

"We should probably go wash our faces off."

"I was thinking shower," Dinah suggested, standing up.

"Shower? Who goes first?"

"Both of us. The girls aren't home. We can be as loud as we want," Dinah told her, picking her wife.
