I've honestly been writing this since Christmas Day, I was gonna write a Christmas chapter but I couldn't get it how I wanted it. So I already had the start of this chapter and then Wattpad deleted it so I had to start again.
Ooo, also, I've started another kidfic, it's Laurmani with toddler Dinah and baby Camila. I don't know when or if I'll post that though, depends if anyone wants to read it really.

"Hold Mani's hand please, Mila." Ally instructs, turning to lift Lauren out of her car seat, settling the toddler on her hip with Nala as she locks the car.
"Right, have we got everything?" She asks, taking hold of Camila's other hand as they start walking towards the school.
"Yep." Normani answers for both herself and her little sister who is skipping between her and their mother.
After dropping her oldest daughter off at her classroom, Ally places a wriggling Lauren on the floor, smiling when the small girl links her hand with Camila, the two clumsily skipping along in front of the blonde, Nala clutched tightly in her free hand.
"Stay there for a minute please Lauren, I need to talk to Mila's teacher about something." The mother instructs, waiting for a nod before leaving the two by a table.
"Mila!" A little brown haired girl grins excitedly as she pulls the newly five year old into a hug.
"Hi Lucy!" Camila grins back, turning to see her little sister standing slightly behind her. "It's okay Lolo, this is Lucy, she's my friend." She soothes, taking hold of the nervous three year old's hand.
"Loud, Cami." Lauren mumbles, clutching Camila's hand tightly and pulling Nala closer.
"Sorry we were just excited, I haven't seen Lucy since Friday!" The five year old apologises, turning to her friend. "Lucy, this is my little sister, Lolo."
"Hi Lolo!" Lucy grins enthusiastically.
"Nuh-uh. You gotta say Lauren, she's my Lolo."
"Sorry Mila. I'm five, how old are you?" She asks the youngest girl.
Looking up to her sister for reassurance, Lauren takes a deep breath before quietly answering. "Three."
"Who's that?" Pointing to the stuffed lion in the toddler's arms.
"'ala."
"She's cool, I like Lion King but Jungle Book's my favourite. Wanna play with me an' Mila?" Lucy offers, wanting to keep talking to her friend's little sister.
"She can't." Camila frowns, shaking her head.
Noticing the sad look on Lauren's face, Lucy sends her a sympathetic pout. "Why not?"
"'Cause Mama's coming."
"Hey guys, you ready to to go home angel?" Crouching down beside her daughters, Ally reaches out to tuck a loose strand of hair behind her youngest's ear.
"S'ay." The dark haired girl shakes her head, moving closer to Camila.
"You can't sweetheart, you're not old enough for school yet."
"P'ease."
"No baby, come on, Mommy's waiting for us."
"P'ay wif Camz an'- an' 'ucy."
"Lauren." The mother warns, hearing the slight increase in the volume of the toddler's voice. "Let's go."
"Camz an' 'ucy!"
